I was diagnosed with PTSD and to avoid anxiety and hyper-vigilance I have to live in the moment. If try to set goals I get obsessed and I stress about them. I always seek to improve myself but I have to stay focused on whatever is happening right now and do that with excellence while seeking to always do better as I learn how.
'Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly' I feel like this applies to this video. Any progress is better than nothing. Doing 10 minutes of excersise is better than nothing if an hour is too hard. Day by day is the best. Thanks
Yes!! You are learning. Setting long-term unattainable goals usually fails. Short-term goals are usually better. You have to find a system that works for you. Maybe a journal or making a list of things you want to accomplish in a week. A big calendar is great for keeping track of appointments, deadlines, work hours, etc. Some people like using their phones, but I think putting things in writing holds you accountable because you see the calendar in front of you every day. You are doing great. Be calm, carry on, and one day at a time.
"One day at a time" is also one of the tenets taught by Alcoholics Anonymous. It makes good sense where stress is a concern to just worry about today. As always, really useful information you are putting out there. I quite a few years ago stopped making New Years resolutions because I never kept to them and it caused a little stress. I hope all is going well for you and I hope you have a Merry Christmas.
hey Jwool!! i came across your channel months ago but then for some reason wasn't able to watch any videos for months until today....when i needed it the most now that things aren't good for me. Got to know everything that happened after you got into college. i just wanted to tell you that you are doing great. Just know that you are amazing and these videos do help people out there. Thank you for everything and i hope the best for you.
Hi James: Goal setting I think is very important a GOOD set of goals are not easy to define. Goals can be changed and modified as time goes by. I want to be a good RUclipsr would be a good goal. What are the skills you would need to be a good RUclips could be goals. I think, well thought out goals will help set a direction that you would like to pursue to achieve success. I like your videos and am impressed with your deep thoughts about life. Don't let a little bump in the road throw you off just get back up brush your self off and continue along the path you want to go. You are the best.
Keep it going James, moving forward and seeing the *Reality* of things in the world and that not everything is champagne parties and walking on Rose petals. So proud of how far you've come in the past several months and your transition into the *"Real World"* Merry Christmas! 🙏🎄
You should have short term goals, such as a daily goals, that are attainable. And, you should put action toward them. You should have longer term goals, such as monthly or yearly, that might be associated with these short term goals. These are more aspirational. The daily goals are the ones you should focus on and the longer term ones should come about as a result of the short term goals, if you are truly able to accomplish them. I think this is basically what you were saying.
Not having any goals might be temporarily OK for an 18-year-old kid living at home with limited responsibilities seemingly floating from day to day. Not so great for adults out in the real world dealing with everyday circumstances. A person's life would be quite disorganized without any goals or objectives. Enjoy this transient phase in your life. Sooner or later life is going to hit you like a brick wall.

That is a good mindset to have James, life happens and you have to roll with it. Can't always have everything planned ❤

Absolutely I 100% agree

I am a BIG fan of written list of goals/things to do.

A Very well thought out and inspiring video, good job man!!
Thank you man 🙏
Life by the yard is hard life by the inch is a cinch.
Hey Mister Wool. I really like the subtitles. I don't know if there's an AI to help you do that or not, but it is a nice professional touch.
I have a different take and experience. Let’s chat!
maybe I’ll interview you in a video random mysterious person who is definitely not my mom (hint hint you guys)
Peace. 💙
Love it!! Thank you!! 🤍

Goals are for grown ups, when ur a kid you're just tied to your parents choices and income.
Getting better at editing I see, anyways.. *eats goals*
Wow you got subtitles now. Things are going pro it seems
just wondering do you make enough money from youtube to support yourself?food ,rent, car payment,cloths?just wondering
I liked this video, you are very good at doing this. (I am not as fond of your live streams, because of the silly things so many people say.)
Thank you my friend!! No worries, I understand. I hope you continue to watch the videos though!!
@@Jwool.mp3 I will never miss any of your videos.
I like this mindset. Thanks for sharing!

I found the captioning to be distracting.
Yeah to be honest I don’t think I’ll do it again. It also took way too long to edit
