if you speak another language and are willing to subtitle this video, please do it there amara.org/en/videos/xPaMIxZL92bG/info/wwwyoutubecomwatchvkich_d6thqk/ thank you. the ted talk at the start of this video may be found here: ruclips.net/video/pN34FNbOKXc/видео.html i'd also like to mention that this is a supportive community, regardless of how long you study/how hard you study, at the end of it we're all students and here to learn. I ask that you refrain from toxic productivity in this chat as we try to encourage each other to do better, thank you.
I have an exam tommorow and I’m only studying now. I’m trying to scrap through university and I’m honestly terrified. I’ve been depressed for years and I’ve never had the motivation to study. But seeing it as a habit is SO REFRESHING oh my god. I’m tearing up here but damn this is a sign
starting to prepare for a big exam from tomorrow. don't know what's gonna happen for the next year. everything is just murky now, I don't have a clear mindset on life now. things are hard.
Waste is something you cannot use or get back. To say you wasted 19 years of your life is saying you didn't exist, you didn't suffer you did not learn. Those versions of yourself when you were younger, hell pre covid are the stepping stone to who you have become. You lived, failed, learned, rose, grew and strived for greatness. Not to be great for a divine or fake reason, for you. In the end, we are what we grow beyond. Thank you my man it helped me see and remember what it is to strive and persevere again. -A 21 year old who failed too many times and is still in college
I will have 4 tests this week and I ve learnt nothing till yesterday. And I need to work SO HARD , to get better grades. I want to survive through this hell week and then I can rest, and then , when the summer will come, I will have the best time ever . And this commentary has encouraged me. Exactly when I was complaining about this week, I saw this comment. Thank you...
7:24 this made me cry! You are so sweet and caring, James. I hope you achieve everything you ever wanted in your life. Thank you for this video, it was so inspirational!
1. Understanding and adopting the growth mindset 2. Drive vs. Motivation -don't rely on motivation (relying on motivation will ultimately bring you failure) -drive continues while motivations stops -motivation is viotile -use the fact that you want to succeed to file you drive -understand why you want to do what you want to do -drive will get you places where motivation will not 3. Build strong habits -creating a journal -they're what keep you consistent and what keeps you going -makes things become like second nature -it's easy to get obsessed how long you study, you need to be obsessed with how deep you get -high quality work=time spent x quality of focus -depth matters a lot more than how long -"get into the zone" -figure out where you're comfy studying 4. If you're burnt out, be patient -this lifestyle is hard, stay persistent, take care of yourself, it'll blow over -things come with both positives and negatives 5. Physical health -be active outside of studying -maybe start running a lot (marathon or treadmill) -daily workout -fix your posture or your back will start hurting really bad -eat healthy foods -also heavily impacts your mental health so TAKE THIS PART HEAVILY
I haven't studied, for the last 3 months, I'm addicted to social media, this is the worst period of my life honestly, but this is it, I'm done with that lifestyle, i am not going to give up even though i know the odds are against me, i will update this comment every week on how consistent i will be and if i achieved it, my goal this week is 3 hours of deep work, keep fighting girl
Honestly it's been the same for me lately and i am also fed up with this going back to square 1 again and again and again I want to change I have to change let's do this together girl I hope you didn't give up let's fight together I won't give up so not again.
Yes, don't give up! I used to be in the same situation as you. Last June, I've decided to quit everything. I was so fed up with myself- knowing what to do, yet consistently avoided it. I knew why. But knowing why isn't enough- to act what you think and know is far superior than to think about an act. It's already been a month for me and I've been improving by lots. My screentime reduced from 7-8hrs to 4-5hrs a day. Mostly having 70% of it for doing advanced studies. The more I get into this is also the more I'm starting to realize a lot of things. Good luck to us!!!
Finally some real advice from one of the realest person on the platform. It's sooo refreshing compared to the overproduced, filtered and flashy videos that populate the "motivation & drive" portion of youtube. This one is special because it's a video about motivation that doesn't come from the most shallow, energized "productivity-high" that many creators kinda force themselves into before making these kinds of videos, but instead comes from hardships and confrontation, stillness and resilience. This kind of advice just hit different when it comes from someone that's always present, putting in the work day after day, in front of thousands of people to see. You can see the rawness of the emotions, and the heartfelt challenges that one must endure to get to that point. Thanks so much for being on here and inspire so many people in real time everyday.

Ele morreu por vc de braços abertos e continua de braços abertos esperando sua conversão .Tenho certeza que se vc fosse a ÚNICA PESSOA salva através do sacrifício Dele, Ele faria tudo de novo,só p/ te ter no reino Dele .Ele é o Pastor que deixa as noventa e nove em busca da ovelha perdida.Antes de vc ser uma substância informe no ventre de sua mãe, Deus já te conhecia ,e já te amava. Vc é imagem e semelhança de Deus. Ele quer que agente reflita o caráter do Seu Filho Aceite Jesus enquanto é tempo,pois Ele está voltando para buscar a sua Igreja. A salvação é gratuita ,mas o salário do pecado é a morte,o inimigo te odeia pq vc é amada por Deus, tão amada que Deus enviou seu ÚNICO FILHO pra te salvar da condenação.Como o inimigo não pode fazer nada contra Deus ele tenta fazer mal contra os amados de Deus,pq pra ele não tem jeito, mas pra mim e pra VC tem sim,e o jeito se chama JESUS CRISTO, que é a ponte entre Deus e os homens.🙏
I think many people would relate to this pain. There's nothing worse than knowing that you want something and not knowing how to get it or get there. This video is inspiring and actually gives me hope for the world.
The meaning of life is our relationship with God. These four steps are the key to getting a Divine Revelation directly from him. They are something you'd eventually do if you took God seriously enough to read the Bible, while implementing its teachings. They are, forgive your parents, break down before Jesus, ask for forgiveness, and read three books of the Bible. Step four requires the first book of each testament, and one you chose yourself. The order is actually important. The steps build on each other. Each one primes your soul for the next. To be forgiven we must forgive. Mathew 6: 14-15. That's why forgiving others has to come before asking for forgiveness. Jesus will not forgive you until you've at least done the bare minimum, our parents. They're supposed to be easiest to forgive, because they've fed, housed, loved us to some degree. Our problems with them are supposed to represent our problems with God. This is why the bare minimum to receive the revelation is our parents. You'll still have to forgive everyone though, but that comes much easier after meeting God. I'm extremely serious and very literal. I'm not talking about signs, nor feelings, nor prayer. It's an actual literal pulled out of your body direct one on one conversation, nothing you can miss. nor misinterpretae. The vast majority of christans never bother to do what God wants seriously, so most never get this revelation. To most outside church their Bible is a paper weight, or at best a virtue signal. Their religion is in what other people think about them, not their relationship with God. Please do those steps I mentioned, there really is a Divine Revelation waiting for all of us. There's extraordinarlly important information we all desperately need in this revelation, but those who get it are forbidden to share it. The Truth that Jesus Christ is Lord is written on every human heart. We all have that knowledge inside us, but we bury it under mountains of pain and anger. Those steps clear away that garbage inside you, letting God heal you, so that his words boom clearly inside your soul. The entire point of our existence here is to Trust God enough that we pay him this mustard seed of Faith, so his Grace can remove the stain sin has left on our souls. Everyone that does not get this Grace is not forgiven of any of their sins, even if they turned around and we're the best person from 25 to death. Without Grace those first sins are still counted against you, tying you to the devil's punishment. It's not about being a good person, It's about being forgiven for when you weren't. The Bible is Truth. Please do those steps and see for yourself. Please take your salvation seriously.,,
@@jamesmayle4712 First, thanks James for sharing this, it takes some courage to do so. A lot of people shy away from their faith and when confronted, they deny Jesus Christ and claim that they are agnostic believing in a higher "Presence" or "Source", or something along those lines but calling Christianity a religion. I know I didn't believe in God at first, then I did believe in a Creator but not any religions or any other ideas. And it might have stayed that way if I didn't encounter GOD in my life. I remember two specific times where I undoubtedly knew it was GOD although I've felt the presence of GOD a few times. The sad thing is that those encounters start to fade in your memory as time passes by so your faith waivers sometimes due to uncertainty but it's at those times where you need to reconcile with Christ and evaluate your life from eternal perspective. I want to add a few things to your comment so it doesn't seem misplaced in comments of this video. First forgiveness. Forgiveness is important for many reasons than just one. It allows you to be forgiven as you forgive others because you get the same forgiveness from GOD freely just by asking for it. You obviously don't ask GOD for forgiveness when you know in the back of your mind you will continue doing that unrighteous/sinful act. You ask for forgiveness when you are ready to repent-(Repentance doesn't just mean that you regret your actions, but that you will never walk in that direction again, [Like a 180 turn]). This is easier said than done in real life and I definitely struggled with this in my experience but also realized a valuable lesson from it. That lesson being that GOD knows all your past, present and future including your thoughts, feeling and circumstances so you can't hide anything from Him lie to Him but only to yourself. (I'm sure you can understand this concept and it feels like something a 5 year old could know, but realizing the truth of it your life is very different). One way to make it easier to forgive others is to look for their heart, understand the why of their action and not the deed itself. (Also remind yourself of all the things GOD has forgiven you for this will help you forgive others easier.) Judgement. The measure you use to judge other will be the same measure Christ will judge you. In Romans it's made known to us that GOD/Father doesn't judge people, he has given that authority to Christ. Christ is the judge of the living and the dead, so remember next time that you try to judge someone that you will be judged in the same measure (which wouldn't be "cute" to put it lightly). [To under why the universal laws are this way and also why the world is made this way out of all the possibilities read Romans] This is also important for Christians to remember because they have forgotten or misunderstood some of the things regarding the Law which causes them to be judgemental. Remember that you're not trying to prove anything to anyone if you really are a Christian-[meaning a disciple of Jesus]. Christ doesn't care about what arguments you win for His name, nor does He want us to. Instead of making good arguments we are supposed to share the love GOD shares with us and promote righteousness through our deeds. I don't think anyone ever succeeded proving a point by outarguing the other person, it's a waste of time. Also anyone can talk the talk, but living a life where when others look, they can see the work of GOD in your life will truly bring others salvation. That's something that can't be imitated because the change will show in your character, you will feel like a new person like you have been reborn. No one can be righteous in this world, Not One, -Romans. (We can dedicate the whole world to prove GOD wrong by raising one child to be righteous and not break any commandments and we would fail miserably because that child will fail no matter the amount provisions and the preparedness we have). So we can only be made righteous when we have faith in Jesus Christ. That's the ONLY way. (Read Romans to understand why "Faith" and the reason for Christ's sacrifice and you'll get all the answers of any questions that challenges your Belief and Faith). Lastly, remember humility and the fear of GOD. Those who are humble will be exalted and those who boast will be humbled (This isn't just a verse from the bible, life experience proves the truth of this verse). This is what Jesus means when he says Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. I'll leave a verse here from the bible which nicely summarizes all these points made here: Micah 6:8 [|"He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?"|] (Read that verse word for word and use that as a standard to compare your life) All these things mentioned here will be easy to do if you are selfless person who doesn't focus on himself/herself every second. But the reality is we're selfish. We have desires and ambitions outside of our basic needs which leads us to focus on gain and other material things that can subconsciously serve as trophies for our achievements and success. You have the free will to do anything but remember that the ends don't justify the means. GOD doesn't have a problem with your ends, the concern is the state of your heart (your motives, "the means"). This is why the commandments exist, because they help you to live a free life not to constrain you. If you sin your sins will eventually entrap you and make you a slave, causing you to do things that are out of your control (like an addiction). Talk about a loss of free will; kind of ironic. Remember sin is what ultimately results to death. It's like a seed where its fruit is death. I think it's mentioned in the gospel of James that whoever knows knows the right thing to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them. That's why doing the right thing always matters regardless of the consequences you think it might bring (Motives show the character). But remember when you truly encounter GOD, which you will if you truly seek Him, that's when you'll transform (like a paradigm shift) and become more selfless, leading you to treasure eternal things, not material things. Once you begin having a relationship with Christ and start walking with him, all your worries, anxieties and doubts will clear away which will free you to experience love, peace, joy, abundance and genuine gratitude for life. This is why even though I don't write comments on RUclips or anywhere really, I felt compelled to write all this out because I remember the hopeless dark days I used to live in and I hope this will inspire someone to set aside the distractions of this world and to pursue Jesus Christ. I used to be an unbeliever, trust me I would never think I would end up being a person to write this kind of thing but here we are. Also I'm aware of the ideas that surround atheists or agnostics of why people might turn to religions and I had/have literally no reason to do so. The idea of death never really scared me nor do I have any appeal or interest for eternal life. (The idea of eternal life still concerns me because I'm 21 and I think life is already getting too long but from the promise of Christ eternity will be beyond our imagination so there is that:). I mention this things so that you may consider the advice from here without building mental defenses to block out all the info here that might go against your current beliefs. Do what I did. Genuinely seek the Creator of the universe, and you, without any impure motives or intentions (meaning thinking of your gain/profit as the main intent for this pursuit), and I'm sure you'll encounter GOD through Lord Jesus Christ and not anything else. But keep in mind that your new transformed life after the encounter will be full of obstacles and trials. As the saying goes the Devil's greatest trick is that he convinced the world that he doesn't exist. So when you genuinely believe in Christ (meaning you could stake your life on it) you'll encounter spiritual adversaries from which you were safe before due to your unbelief. Remember that Christ already beat the devil so we're no longer bound to death or to sin but his LimiteD influence is still on you. Before we were hopeless, but now we have The Holy Spirit which lets us resist the temptations until they fade, without succumbing to sin. On your walk with Christ your faith will be tested, first by little then by much which will depend on how much you trust GOD and how much faith you have in his Word. If you do well from what little GOD gives you then He will entrust you with more. So remember that you'll never really get comfortable with your faith in GOD (it's not like a game where you get to a certain level then you fell at ease) because every time you'll have to trust GOD to an extent that you never did before which is easier said than done. Also remember that no one can prove the existence of GOD because the idea of Faith will be for not. "Faith and Fear both demand you to believe in something that you cannot see. You Choose." - Bob Proctor. We get this one short life on this planet so don't choose to live in fear because that's a prison that will keep you where you are, Stuck. The Fear of GOD however is described like fear you have of your parents, like a respectful thing, the same way we love our parents but also fear them. So this post turnout out way too long than what I initially wanted to say but I'm not gonna proofread it or edit it so if anyone read this far just remember the two most important commandments Jesus told us to keep. Love GOD with all you heart, mind and soul. And love your neighbor as yourself. To keep this commands just remember the care and effort you put in for the ones you love, so this love can translate into Action and everything you read here won't just end up as a head knowledge.
To be honest, you’re one of the greatest people I’ve ever seen in my entire life. The way you broke down while you were saying what you wanted to achieve in life, really touched me because I know how it feels. The reason for your hard work was even more impactful. You’re so honest and raw. I’ve watched hundreds of ted talks, but This is the first time I’ve been impelled to truly work on myself and animate my dreams. Every word you said was thoughtful and meaningful. Your words truly catalyzed my drive. It’d unexplainable. Thank you so much. I’ll always be grateful for watching your videos. I can’t wait till the day you achieve everything and more because you really really do deserve the world. I know you’ll buy your mom a beautiful home one day! Your hard work will definitely pay off. Good luck✨

Bro when you said “it took 19 years to figure that out” my heart went out to you. I’m glad you feel so strongly, you’ve got a fire burning inside you. Take care dude. Proud of you.
I am much older than you (mid 30s) and almost gave up on learning new things. You and Mika made me start studying again and I got my best score in an English test and a certificate in accounting last year. Thank you. I think you are already socially successful on RUclips. Don't cry, smile ☺ Big Hug from Japan.
I'm currently going through a spiraling bout of depression, not knowing how to cope with things in regards to having a lack of direction, and hopelessness. This is exactly what I needed. Thank you James for being so transparent and vulnerable with us.
It's better to learn systems rather than memorizing straight. If you want to memorize straight then I would advise you to use Mnemonics or some memory trick.

Brother, It took me 26 years to find this what you call "drive". I read all three books you recommended. Going for masters in a different country, I had to find my drive, build habits, routines.

Man i sobbed so bad watching this! This is what i pay my internet bills for. I almost wasted my last year just procrastinating but i promise I'm gonna be a better person and increase my study hours. This comment is gonna remind me to push myself
As a 14 year old teenager, thank you for teaching me not to waste time anymore. I believe the day will come when you be a good father, buy your mother a bigger house and become a better person. edit: When I was writing this, I was preparing for high school entrance exam. I was studying with his lives and there were some days which I studied over 10 hours. I take the exam in 6th of June and... I wish I didn't studied that much. There were 6 lessons, turkish, revolution history, religious culture and english for verbal; math and science for numerical. NOTHING was in the exam that I studied for turkish, nothing. I would have done history in the exam if I didn't studied too. In science, I think it was good but they asked very difficult in math. There are 20 questions and they wrote one question for every page. One question was a different version of a question which was in the university exam. They asked one high school subject too. I wish I didn't prepared that much for this exam. I didn't deserve this result even I studied for 10 months. I am only 14 but I feel older. Geography is destiny. Thank you for reading.
Don't waste time, but remember, having fun and creating memories is not a waste of time. There are tons of ways to grow and learn and studying 12 hours a day isn't it for everyone. Balance.
I have this concern too. Recently, I found that sitting in the same posture and studying for hours, every day, is not a healthy thing. But I have to study for so long and so hard like that to achieve my dream. Since you said you are a therapist, could you suggest some ways to study for a long time without affecting my health? Also, is it okay to walk and study at the same time, I mean, like reading a book while walking?
@@brindhan I would suggest to just stand up while reading, walking could maybe a little distracting, but you can try this too. Try to change the position of your legs every 10-20 minutes (like sitting on your feet, putting them under the chair, put just one leg up, sit on one leg etc etc) because your spine will automatically move with your legs and pelvis. Also change where you sit on the chair (sit on the edge straight, or slouch a little leaning back). If you have and gaming chair, or office chair, just spin it. As you might see, the point is, not sit straight, but to playfully change your position in everyway possible. Maybe consider to buy equipment, which holds your books, tablet or monitor, so you don't have to look down all the time. Also pezziballs are very good for you, you could sometimes sit on them instead of a chair. At last I can only suggest to start workout your core, if you don't want to lift weights, becaus it gives your the strength to sit longer without pain. At least mobilize your spine every couple hours, by crossing your arm above your chest, so your left hand touches your right shoulder and the right hand the left should. Then slowly move your arms as far as possible up and down for like a minute, so you flex and extend the spine (also move your head!!). After this you can do big circles with your elbows (still crossed arms), so you have rotation, lateral flexion and extension and flexion. Laying on the ground, or over the ball (or a rolled up blanket) can help you to relax your muscles and stretch them. Hope it will help you, I would be really interested what the results are :)
@@le_jiggy_garcon Thank you so much. You are really sweet! All your points are incredibly useful. I feel really grateful. I will try all your suggestions for a couple of months and I sure will express my gratitude by sharing my results if there is any development. If I do not find any improvement then probably I would have done something wrong and I would not like to disappoint you with my results, so. Thank you once again. I really appreciate.
지금까지 봐왔던 어떠한 영상보다도 압도적이다. 그동안 나는 동기부여만 찾았는지 모르겠다. 운동을 하면서도 그때가 모두와 만나는 날이니 지금부터 시작하고 계속 하자 했지만 막상 그 날이 지나고 점차 줄었으며, 혼자가 힘들어 같이 공부하자며 스터디 그룹도 만들었지만 언제나 오래 이끌지 못했다. 그리고 결정적으로 직장생활에서 받은 번아웃에서 벗어나지 못했다. 그렇게 일을 그만두고 2년이란 시간을 아무것도 하지 않은 채 주변에서는 다양한 반응... 공감되지 못해 더욱이 듣기 싫었다. "그래 너 고생 진짜 많았어 쉬는 것도 괜찮아" "지금 아무런 준비도 안하고 그만둬도 돼?"

@@astrodreamer946 He isn't advocating the method though. Studying consistently for even one or 2 hours throughout a year is something most of us cannot keep up with, and this guy spent almost half of a year studying. He is just explaining how he got through it all, because the rest of us would be like "I can't be motivated enough to do anything that hard", he is not saying how studying 12 hours a day would change everyone's lives.
my trick is when you reach the point that nothing cant distract you try to keep that point. Dont get out from there. Keep reaching that point is alrady hard.Dont repeat it.
I see people in the comments romanticizing studying half a day, but it really isn't as easy as you think. As he said, the quality needs to be high too. I think studying 12 hours a day or taking up a significant portion of your day isn't healthy and realistic for most people. You'll probably have low sleep, no time for hobbies or skill development, burnout, mood swings, you may even lose friends. He literally said not to push yourself too hard, just because he can do it doesn't mean everyone can and its not fun. You need to take care of your health and ensure quality over quantity of studying. The amount of time you study for isn't equivalent to your success or value. Effort doesn't always breed success. Listen to what he says, dude.
Yeah, 12 hours a day is overkill. It isn’t even half the day cause you have to sleep. Studying that amount of time would surely just mean you’re not studying WELL cause you can’t concentrate for that long. Why not find better ways to remember things, like visual stimuli, explaining to others etc. And the 3:30 am video? I can’t, I thought that was a parody!!!
@@leafleafleaf9272 I know right? Other methods still exist, dude, people in the comments should chill. There are MANY more effective methods lf studying that will let you live a normal life. Health comes first.
@@RingsideReels Health should always come first, you are lucky to be able to keep studying because others would lose their momentum after something like that and fall out completely. I know I would.
@@Ash-pp6yt thanks. But I have another question, I just did my tests, my GCSE's, and currently it is my summer break. Would you, personally, reccomend studying in the summer break as preparation despite me studying for long periods of time?

Over the last 19 years of my life, I've begun to understand how insignificant I am. I sit on my ass all day, browsing facebook and stuffs, while others go out and do things. I wanted to make changes in my life right now, rather than enviously watching others on how they live their life. Thank You!
@@NeoKurow Why do you say you wasted your time while trying to figure out your life during your early 20s ? Isn't what you're supposed to do at this age ?
Good for you or any other people that found that "thing" in life. I think myself as a good kid and "friend" or person. I've lived more than 25 years doing good thing, maybe not grand or super good, but I try my best to not disappoint. and yet here I am keep getting disappointed and disappointed. not saying hard work won't be rewarded, but I just to say life sucks, which means not every hard work get rewarded, not every good intention results in good thing happening. You need to know when you need to cut off some people, you need to know when you need to put everything, know when not to pursue some stuff. It is hard, it's not as easy as reading any book or doing daily good habits, it's a culmination of many complicated stuff which I probably say no one can explain in detail everything, which is why everything usually oversimplified to several bullet points, some encouraging speech and stuff. but it's still all won't be enough
من خلال هذا الفيديو اكتشفت ان ضغط على النفس لأجل الاستيقاظ باكرا ودراسة الساعات ليس كافيا بل أهم شي يجب يكون نصب عينيك الدافع (سبب) للحصول على ماتريد وهذا هو سر النجاح الذي يجعلك تدرس دون شعور بتعب والوقت.. «أنا لا أعرفك لكن من خلال هذا الفيديو أكتشفت أيضا أنك أفضل شخص يمكن أن يكون صديق على الإطلاق » 🌷🤍
@@antomat85 I'm guessing he means motivation / impulse vs constructing a fonctional work routine. The creator of the video says it himself early in this video. Getting motivated is rather easy but it is volatile - work and discipline are about putting a routine that will allow you to stay focus no mater the situation.
@@antomat85 my motivation is driven by constant anger due to my terrible childhood and abusive family. At least i am able to turn it into something positive instead of the opposite. He's right, it's all about the mindset. I must admit that over the time, it is taking too much tolls on me and sometimes I found myself tearing up while working (im 28 y/o) for no reason.
Hey bro, I’m a 15 year old boy from South Africa and if you read this or not does not matter but I just wanted to say that it’s 11 pm in the night and while whatching RUclips I stumbled across your video. Yesterday our school locked down due to COVID and I just heard earlier today I’m COVID positive and I’m rethinking my life decisions even though I might seem weird. But I just wanted to tell you THAT IVE BEEN WATCHING RUclips SINCE I WAS 7 YEARS OLD AND I HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH A USE FULL VIDEO the information and knowledge you gave me might stick with me for the rest of my life ! I realized that I was wasting a lot of my time on social media and I wasn’t cherishing moments that I had with my family. So I just wanted to thank you for uploading this video and I hope only good things pass your path from now on🤞
Awe mase kind. I'm in the exact situation that you are, only I'm a little bit older. I realized I wasted so much time on youtube and social media. I'm trying cut these things out more day by day so I can have more time for other productive things
@johann yt please dont ask/say like that. People say a saying is a wish. We never know what will happen, just wish he would recover asap ((im sorry im bad at english, i hope you understand))
Watching this again after 1 year. Throughout this 1 year I studied for 12 hours a day. Your this video really helped me in my life even though I was waiting for a blast but you gave me the startup
@@janewambui2065From the very first day. But not right after I watched it. There were some environmental factors that played role in this transformation. Without that I would have started to study seriously anyways but not with the same rage. I forgot about sleep and meal at the beginning but I slowly felt the necessity to build up a routine.
When he started crying, I understand now. This person is dead serious, this person knows what he wants to do and what he wants to achieve, he realizes that his actions don't fit the picture. He needs to change himself, he realized the importance and how useless the things he used to do and feel are. This is a lesson, I'm not on your level yet. I haven't understood myself fully, Thank you man.. you really did open an eye. I know that I had this problem within me, but I just didn't do anything about it.

I am from Iraq. Thank you for your motivating words. I will work hard and put pressure on myself because I deserve success. I will achieve my dream and become the best doctor. 2023/12/24 2:03ص
I am 32 and have wasted so much time already. I feel I have already lost my time to achieve anything in life. But your video is inspiring and is making me revise my outlook. Commenting here so that I get notified when someone likes or comments under this, so that I can come back here again and again and be reminded of the discipline that one needs to follow to achieve something substantial.
I understand why he's doing this because I was the same in my many years before commencing into college. I tried so hard to study, it was tough for me. My parents were looked down by people, and I couldn't stand it seeing them being insulted, that's why I tried. There are times I could not focused and was so tired of studying things that I didn't enjoy. I collapsed until I decided to get myself up again and studying in tears. So I just want to say, being driven by your own goals is good, that's what make you succeed. But remember it should be for your own shakes but not others (which will make the drive last longer). And if you can't study as hard, it's completely OK! I've been forcing myself too hard that I did not feel peace and happy at all, and this was my lesson after those years. So the important thing is to know your limit, because there IS a limit for each person (for what you have given physically). When you know there's a limit, you can take suitable studying methods without pushing yourself too much. Peace 🕊️
Love unconditionly on what u doing, for loving one topic that u not interested there is some mind hacks tips to love things that u distracted for a certain period of time l.
The meaning of life is our relationship with God. These four steps are the key to getting a Divine Revelation directly from him. They are something you'd eventually do if you took God seriously enough to read the Bible, while implementing its teachings. They are, forgive your parents, break down before Jesus, ask for forgiveness, and read three books of the Bible. Step four requires the first book of each testament, and one you chose yourself. The order is actually important. The steps build on each other. Each one primes your soul for the next. To be forgiven we must forgive. Mathew 6: 14-15. That's why forgiving others has to come before asking for forgiveness. Jesus will not forgive you until you've at least done the bare minimum, our parents. They're supposed to be easiest to forgive, because they've fed, housed, loved us to some degree. Our problems with them are supposed to represent our problems with God. This is why the bare minimum to receive the revelation is our parents. You'll still have to forgive everyone though, but that comes much easier after meeting God. I'm extremely serious and very literal. I'm not talking about signs, nor feelings, nor prayer. It's an actual literal pulled out of your body direct one on one conversation, nothing you can miss. nor misinterpretae. The vast majority of christans never bother to do what God wants seriously, so most never get this revelation. To most outside church their Bible is a paper weight, or at best a virtue signal. Their religion is in what other people think about them, not their relationship with God. Please do those steps I mentioned, there really is a Divine Revelation waiting for all of us. There's extraordinarlly important information we all desperately need in this revelation, but those who get it are forbidden to share it. The Truth that Jesus Christ is Lord is written on every human heart. We all have that knowledge inside us, but we bury it under mountains of pain and anger. Those steps clear away that garbage inside you, letting God heal you, so that his words boom clearly inside your soul. The entire point of our existence here is to Trust God enough that we pay him this mustard seed of Faith, so his Grace can remove the stain sin has left on our souls. Everyone that does not get this Grace is not forgiven of any of their sins, even if they turned around and we're the best person from 25 to death. Without Grace those first sins are still counted against you, tying you to the devil's punishment. It's not about being a good person, It's about being forgiven for when you weren't. The Bible is Truth. Please do those steps and see for yourself. Please take your salvation seriously.,,

This dude is how I aspire to be in every single aspect of my life... he cares about school, his diet, his physical health, his mental health, his social life, even his postures, he really takes care of everything. He doesn't sacrifice one part of his life for another. Mad respect. Super inspiring.
I know right, especially how well he is able to fluently and peacefully talk about such a complex issue shows his maturity. I’ve always wanted to be like that, especially because my best friend a grade above reminds me of him so much, so it’s difficult to be in her shadow but I know how important it is to not compare and stay true to yourself. best of luck man! you got this.
When u started crying around the part “I want to buy my parent a house” I started crying too. A big part of what drives me at school is the thought of making my parents happy, not because of pressure, but because they deserve it.
الحقيقة ان مثابرتك دفعتني للتساؤل لما انا بهذا الدلال مع نفسي ، اعتقد ان الوقت حان للتصرف بمسؤولية و جدية تجاه واجباتي و ما أنا مسؤولة عنه يحزنني فقط ان هذا الفيديو من سنتين لذا أتمنى انك بخير و ب أحسن حال ف جدك و اجتهادك يستحق ان يكون لك مستقبل رائع
I want money and I want to do things I like the most that don't bring me money.. till I get better than all professionals. even that wouldn't guarantee a job. that's why I'm against speculation, and in favor of personal improvement, what philosophers call capitalism. if you don't love yourselves that's your fault
This video touched me very much. I'm going through the same thing and I'm glad I'm not alone. Thank you very much. I hope we all achieve what we want. 🥺

Hey just for more reference to anyone, there's a book named "mindset" Carol Dweck. It's definetely worth reading to better understand the growth mindset :)
This dude motivated me (or should i say, driven) more than every single TED talk i've watched, book i've read, or advices i've been given. I just want to thank his sincerity, when he cried it was so heartwarming cause i saw myself in there, wasting my time, and im also dont want to be someone who dont pursue their goals and just stay in bed watching yt videos all day. Thank you man, you helped a lot
My brother did 15hrs+ a day for 5 years, in medicine uni, i remember hearing him repeating lines while on the toilet, he never rested. He was one of the best at uni, and one of the rare doctors in my country to get a job with real knowledge and not thru connections and political parties since we live in the corrupted country and usually, only sons of doctors or strong connections could land you a job as a doctor, but not him, he got it even tho our family was poor and knew no one.
As a 27 year old I want to let you know that you have time. The urgency you felt was a positive force to accomplish this feat but i've nearly wasted my entire 20's to watching youtube videos and pointlessly wasting away not doing anything substantive for my future. The reality is it's better to realize these things regardless of when and to use that as a reason to drive yourself to a future that you want. Sending you love James, this has inspired me immensely to focus on my path. I deeply thank you for making this video.
Same age as you same problem! I have ADHD and it makes things like youtube a legit addiction for me. It's never too late to start doing something. Use a calendar to plan your day. Or set aside a small chunk of 15-30 mins to practice a specific goal. Don't just do a broad goal like "learn to program" or "lose weight" use the calendar app on your phone and set reminders. Also the therapy app called bloom was life changing for me for motivation strategies and learning how to overcome limitations rather than "get a good mindset bruh" I wish you good luck and you can totally do it!
@@duncanbug use the pomodoro technique it has changed my life But alter it according to your mind. I was a 20 min work 5 min break guy, now I am a 45 minute 5minute guy. Check it out, changed my life.
Dude you’re 27, you have plenty of time too. Rodney Dangerfield became successful in his 50’s. You’re good, bro. Just do better than you did yesterday, and don’t beat yourself up if you don’t improve on one day.
Top tips: 1. Don't rely on motivation. Motivation is short term, drive is long term. Drive is about your why. (book ref: Can't hurt me by David Goggins). 2. Build your habits. (book ref: atomic habits by James clear) 3. Measure your study by how long you can study deeply. Learn how to focus deeply (book ref: deep work by Cal Newport) 4. In regards to burnout - there's ups and downs. Go easy on yourself. balance is important! 5. Excercise and eat healthy. Watch your physical state (have good posture ~ invest in things like ergonomic chairs and angular book stand)
Eu estava precisando desse vídeo. Me identifico muito contigo, James. Só acordei aos 24 anos e estou lutando todos os dias para melhorar a minha vida e a vida dos meus pais. Esse é o meu impulso.
legal Vini, estou com 19 anos e acordei, também lutando para construir hábitos fortes e saudáveis e sei que é muito difícil, mas se fosse fácil todo mundo faria ne
Eu ainda estou no processo de acordar, quero muito. Tentei muitas vezes, mas sempre falhei e voltava a rotina sedentária e doente de sempre... Espero que dessa vez seja diferente, eu preciso mudar... 21 anos e ser um inútil... Não foi pra isso que eu nasci! Você vai conseguir, nós vamos conseguir!!
Buddy, you have a mindset of a 30 year old at 19. First of all you’re a huge inspiration to not only younger people, but older as well you’re doing amazing congrats man and thank you for being genuine and keep it up
@@samybenamar4432 almost every normal person in their 30s have this mindset. You have to care about your child, wife, house. You literally working 24/7. Like me. After 8 hours work I came home and start working on my second freelance job. A have no kids and wife. But I have to struggle to afford normal life. I'm a developer in San Francisco
Dude I'm not even trying to reach 12 hours a day and embark in that lifestyle, I just wan't to get 3 hours of good quality studying without hating every second of it and getting instantly and extremely bored as soon as I sit down and start working.
@@troygreenaway1094 Cause I'm finishing a career right now, so not an option. Anyways, I always kind of felt that way towards studying since I was in secondary school (of course there were more and less interesting subjects), but I guess I just don't like learning under pressure and spending so many hours there. And right now with covid I spend WAY too much hours working in the computer and attending online classes, so I'm just burned off and not enjoying what I do at all.
@@AetherCS2 I tried a couple times. It helps sometimes, but doesn't make miracles 🤷 If you do it too much your mind starts wandering when you should be studying, and it makes no sense to go on with it.
@@danirodriguez4707 If you want you can try some NeuroGum. I love their cinnamon flavor, and it helps me study like crazy. Just caffeinated gum with L-Theanine, and B-12. Kind of pricey but worth it if you truly need a push.
when you started crying, it made me realize I had so much aspirations of my own. and i wasn't doing anything towards accomplishing those ideas either. I'm living in constant fear and doing everything opposite. I always feel like algae on floating fish tank water. In those 5 genuine seconds of reflection you made me realize that I need to change at least one thing in my life. And I need to change fast. God bless you because you woke me up. I can't waste my life watching others anymore and start being present in my own.
i dont know how this ended up in my recommendations (because i never watch this kind of videos) but im really happy i ended up here. it's like a getting a life lesson that nobody gives you irl
you reminded me why I'm here like no one said before , i don't want to spend all my day in Instagram or you tube channels they don't take me anywhere , i wanna be a good mom, buy a house for my dad:)) these words made sense a lot...i wanna be like you, strong, serious, straight on my way. thanks again, i really appreciate you and your hard work bro wish you the bests💖
I always studied for 2-3 hours the take a rest..or if something made me rage quit studying like the question is too or something..i just go to sleep..this happens to me in university..lecturer making question too hard or make the answer just inconventional.
@@iori7370 that's disrespectful of you to call his hard work stupid at least he is doing something productive that helps him become a better version of himself everyday instead of wasting his time browsing through RUclips commenting on videos or doing some fucked up shit in the streets
@@jndf7207 how are you gonna call someone’s hard work stupid ? He has the responsibility to study, isn’t it great? He most certainly has some goals he wants to achieve and kudos to him for that.
Weird, nerd, introvert, struggle in school, finding who you are, finding what you live for ... that was you, that is me. Your video really attacks me. I wish my English was better to express my feelings and thinking right now. I just wanna say that i saw my better me in you and you make me want to push myself again.

You honestly don’t understand how much this really helped me today. It’s been hard for me since quarantine started. I’ve been failing my classes and my mom’s constantly pressuring me to get my grades up, do this and that, and constantly being compared to others with higher gpa’s. I start losing focus more often than I usually do. I’m a sophomore right now in hs and I’m still confused on what my goal is :/. Whenever I get yelled at I’d blame it on my parents, but I realized that they just want what’s best for me and then I’d blame myself for not trying hard enough. I’m the type of person to keep things to myself and it’s really hard for me to open up to people and ask them for help. Again , thank you for an amazing message!
Focus on what you can do right now, not on all you have to do. Focus on the process, study hours instead of grades. As long as you put in your work, dont care about what your mom says about other kids gpa. Its your life and you can only follow your path and not someone else's.
I'm literally in a point of my life where I have no motivation to do anything and blame myself for it. Instead of doing, I escape from it. This video was an eye opener to me. Thank you, James!

@@timeless_7379 "Confidante" is a valid word, it means same as "confidant", its not much used, usually used for females, and not exactly same meaning as "confident"
@@artemisDev Yeah, but “confidante” means “a person with whom one shares a secret or private matter, trusting them not to repeat it to others” which just doesn’t make sense in this context, though it is related to the topic at hand. OP definitely meant to say “confident”
I have this issue with procrastination and impulsive motivation, it resulted in me failing my study. I dont think its too late at all though, im 21 and still alot of life ahead of me. I want to start now though and continue with what i am studying. I genuinly love the subject and its just i allowed an emotional aspect fog my thoughts. Im not too upset about failing, although i feel guilty but i know that you must fail to succeed. Your one on one talk is great and comforting to listen too. I wish you well in succeeding in your drive.
I just want to give this guy a hug, this is such a contrast to the romanticised idea of studying or being successful. You can tell that he suffered a lot to push himself like that. It’s comforting and important to those who also feel insecure and without drive because reminds us that following your aspirations is difficult.
@@Danuxsy suffering is 100% necessary to achieve anything "great". living in comfort just gets you an average life man. I went from broke (25k a year) to 125k a year. what did I have to do? live at my shop and commit 100% for 3 years. now ask yourself. was my sacrifice worth it? and where would I be without it? edit: I would do it again 100 times over. I still live at my shop, despite it not being required. it boosted my self confidence, my quality of life, and exponentially amplified the comfort I can have in the future. living in slight discomfort keeps me pushing forward. I get complacent when life is too comfortable 2nd edit: my sacrifice allowed me to create 3 full time jobs as well. so your sacrifices have a ripple effect, as well as compounding my own "wealth"

Waste is something you cannot use or get back. To say you wasted 19 years of your life is saying you didn't exist, you didn't suffer you did not learn. Those versions of yourself when you were younger, hell pre covid are the stepping stone to who you have become. You lived, failed, learned, rose, grew and strived for greatness. Not to be great for a divine or fake reason, for you. In the end, we are what we grow beyond. Thank you my man it helped me see and remember what it is to strive and persevere again.

Yeah same!
same, I started tearing up
same
Same
Same :( he s brutally honest i appreciate that
1. Understanding and adopting the growth mindset
2. Drive vs. Motivation
-don't rely on motivation (relying on motivation will ultimately bring you failure)
-drive continues while motivations stops
-motivation is viotile
-use the fact that you want to succeed to file you drive
-understand why you want to do what you want to do
-drive will get you places where motivation will not
3. Build strong habits
-creating a journal
-they're what keep you consistent and what keeps you going
-makes things become like second nature
-it's easy to get obsessed how long you study, you need to be obsessed with how deep you get
-high quality work=time spent x quality of focus
-depth matters a lot more than how long
-"get into the zone"
-figure out where you're comfy studying
4. If you're burnt out, be patient
-this lifestyle is hard, stay persistent, take care of yourself, it'll blow over
-things come with both positives and negatives
5. Physical health
-be active outside of studying
-maybe start running a lot (marathon or treadmill)
-daily workout
-fix your posture or your back will start hurting really bad
-eat healthy foods
-also heavily impacts your mental health so TAKE THIS PART HEAVILY
Thanks for this!

How's it going?!...I hope you are doing well 😊
Honestly it's been the same for me lately and i am also fed up with this going back to square 1 again and again and again I want to change I have to change let's do this together girl I hope you didn't give up let's fight together I won't give up so not again.
Yes, don't give up! I used to be in the same situation as you. Last June, I've decided to quit everything. I was so fed up with myself- knowing what to do, yet consistently avoided it. I knew why. But knowing why isn't enough- to act what you think and know is far superior than to think about an act. It's already been a month for me and I've been improving by lots. My screentime reduced from 7-8hrs to 4-5hrs a day. Mostly having 70% of it for doing advanced studies. The more I get into this is also the more I'm starting to realize a lot of things. Good luck to us!!!

Finally some real advice from one of the realest person on the platform.
It's sooo refreshing compared to the overproduced, filtered and flashy videos that populate the "motivation & drive" portion of youtube. This one is special because it's a video about motivation that doesn't come from the most shallow, energized "productivity-high" that many creators kinda force themselves into before making these kinds of videos, but instead comes from hardships and confrontation, stillness and resilience.
This kind of advice just hit different when it comes from someone that's always present, putting in the work day after day, in front of thousands of people to see. You can see the rawness of the emotions, and the heartfelt challenges that one must endure to get to that point. Thanks so much for being on here and inspire so many people in real time everyday.

Passando pra deixar essa mensagem💕 Jesus te ama muitoo! Ele morreu por vc de braços abertos e continua de braços abertos esperando sua conversão .Tenho certeza que se vc fosse a ÚNICA PESSOA salva através do sacrifício Dele, Ele faria tudo de novo,só p/ te ter no reino Dele .Ele é o Pastor que deixa as noventa e nove em busca da ovelha perdida.Antes de vc ser uma substância informe no ventre de sua mãe, Deus já te conhecia ,e já te amava. Vc é imagem e semelhança de Deus. Ele quer que agente reflita o caráter do Seu Filho
Aceite Jesus enquanto é tempo,pois Ele está voltando para buscar a sua Igreja. A salvação é gratuita ,mas o salário do pecado é a morte,o inimigo te odeia pq vc é amada por Deus, tão amada que Deus enviou seu ÚNICO FILHO pra te salvar da condenação.Como o inimigo não pode fazer nada contra Deus ele tenta fazer mal contra os amados de Deus,pq pra ele não tem jeito, mas pra mim e pra VC tem sim,e o jeito se chama JESUS CRISTO, que é a ponte entre Deus e os homens.🙏
I think many people would relate to this pain. There's nothing worse than knowing that you want something and not knowing how to get it or get there. This video is inspiring and actually gives me hope for the world.

The meaning of life is our relationship with God. These four steps are the key to getting a Divine Revelation directly from him. They are something you'd eventually do if you took God seriously enough to read the Bible, while implementing its teachings. They are, forgive your parents, break down before Jesus, ask for forgiveness, and read three books of the Bible. Step four requires the first book of each testament, and one you chose yourself. The order is actually important. The steps build on each other. Each one primes your soul for the next. To be forgiven we must forgive. Mathew 6: 14-15. That's why forgiving others has to come before asking for forgiveness. Jesus will not forgive you until you've at least done the bare minimum, our parents. They're supposed to be easiest to forgive, because they've fed, housed, loved us to some degree. Our problems with them are supposed to represent our problems with God. This is why the bare minimum to receive the revelation is our parents. You'll still have to forgive everyone though, but that comes much easier after meeting God. I'm extremely serious and very literal. I'm not talking about signs, nor feelings, nor prayer. It's an actual literal pulled out of your body direct one on one conversation, nothing you can miss. nor misinterpretae. The vast majority of christans never bother to do what God wants seriously, so most never get this revelation. To most outside church their Bible is a paper weight, or at best a virtue signal. Their religion is in what other people think about them, not their relationship with God. Please do those steps I mentioned, there really is a Divine Revelation waiting for all of us. There's extraordinarlly important information we all desperately need in this revelation, but those who get it are forbidden to share it. The Truth that Jesus Christ is Lord is written on every human heart. We all have that knowledge inside us, but we bury it under mountains of pain and anger. Those steps clear away that garbage inside you, letting God heal you, so that his words boom clearly inside your soul. The entire point of our existence here is to Trust God enough that we pay him this mustard seed of Faith, so his Grace can remove the stain sin has left on our souls. Everyone that does not get this Grace is not forgiven of any of their sins, even if they turned around and we're the best person from 25 to death. Without Grace those first sins are still counted against you, tying you to the devil's punishment. It's not about being a good person, It's about being forgiven for when you weren't. The Bible is Truth. Please do those steps and see for yourself. Please take your salvation seriously.,,
duuuuude sameeee
@@jamesmayle4712 First, thanks James for sharing this, it takes some courage to do so. A lot of people shy away from their faith and when confronted, they deny Jesus Christ and claim that they are agnostic believing in a higher "Presence" or "Source", or something along those lines but calling Christianity a religion. I know I didn't believe in God at first, then I did believe in a Creator but not any religions or any other ideas. And it might have stayed that way if I didn't encounter GOD in my life. I remember two specific times where I undoubtedly knew it was GOD although I've felt the presence of GOD a few times. The sad thing is that those encounters start to fade in your memory as time passes by so your faith waivers sometimes due to uncertainty but it's at those times where you need to reconcile with Christ and evaluate your life from eternal perspective. I want to add a few things to your comment so it doesn't seem misplaced in comments of this video. First forgiveness. Forgiveness is important for many reasons than just one. It allows you to be forgiven as you forgive others because you get the same forgiveness from GOD freely just by asking for it. You obviously don't ask GOD for forgiveness when you know in the back of your mind you will continue doing that unrighteous/sinful act. You ask for forgiveness when you are ready to repent-(Repentance doesn't just mean that you regret your actions, but that you will never walk in that direction again, [Like a 180 turn]). This is easier said than done in real life and I definitely struggled with this in my experience but also realized a valuable lesson from it. That lesson being that GOD knows all your past, present and future including your thoughts, feeling and circumstances so you can't hide anything from Him lie to Him but only to yourself. (I'm sure you can understand this concept and it feels like something a 5 year old could know, but realizing the truth of it your life is very different). One way to make it easier to forgive others is to look for their heart, understand the why of their action and not the deed itself. (Also remind yourself of all the things GOD has forgiven you for this will help you forgive others easier.) Judgement. The measure you use to judge other will be the same measure Christ will judge you. In Romans it's made known to us that GOD/Father doesn't judge people, he has given that authority to Christ. Christ is the judge of the living and the dead, so remember next time that you try to judge someone that you will be judged in the same measure (which wouldn't be "cute" to put it lightly). [To under why the universal laws are this way and also why the world is made this way out of all the possibilities read Romans] This is also important for Christians to remember because they have forgotten or misunderstood some of the things regarding the Law which causes them to be judgemental. Remember that you're not trying to prove anything to anyone if you really are a Christian-[meaning a disciple of Jesus]. Christ doesn't care about what arguments you win for His name, nor does He want us to. Instead of making good arguments we are supposed to share the love GOD shares with us and promote righteousness through our deeds. I don't think anyone ever succeeded proving a point by outarguing the other person, it's a waste of time. Also anyone can talk the talk, but living a life where when others look, they can see the work of GOD in your life will truly bring others salvation. That's something that can't be imitated because the change will show in your character, you will feel like a new person like you have been reborn. No one can be righteous in this world, Not One, -Romans. (We can dedicate the whole world to prove GOD wrong by raising one child to be righteous and not break any commandments and we would fail miserably because that child will fail no matter the amount provisions and the preparedness we have). So we can only be made righteous when we have faith in Jesus Christ. That's the ONLY way. (Read Romans to understand why "Faith" and the reason for Christ's sacrifice and you'll get all the answers of any questions that challenges your Belief and Faith). Lastly, remember humility and the fear of GOD. Those who are humble will be exalted and those who boast will be humbled (This isn't just a verse from the bible, life experience proves the truth of this verse). This is what Jesus means when he says Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. I'll leave a verse here from the bible which nicely summarizes all these points made here: Micah 6:8 [|"He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?"|] (Read that verse word for word and use that as a standard to compare your life) All these things mentioned here will be easy to do if you are selfless person who doesn't focus on himself/herself every second. But the reality is we're selfish. We have desires and ambitions outside of our basic needs which leads us to focus on gain and other material things that can subconsciously serve as trophies for our achievements and success. You have the free will to do anything but remember that the ends don't justify the means. GOD doesn't have a problem with your ends, the concern is the state of your heart (your motives, "the means"). This is why the commandments exist, because they help you to live a free life not to constrain you. If you sin your sins will eventually entrap you and make you a slave, causing you to do things that are out of your control (like an addiction). Talk about a loss of free will; kind of ironic. Remember sin is what ultimately results to death. It's like a seed where its fruit is death. I think it's mentioned in the gospel of James that whoever knows knows the right thing to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them. That's why doing the right thing always matters regardless of the consequences you think it might bring (Motives show the character). But remember when you truly encounter GOD, which you will if you truly seek Him, that's when you'll transform (like a paradigm shift) and become more selfless, leading you to treasure eternal things, not material things. Once you begin having a relationship with Christ and start walking with him, all your worries, anxieties and doubts will clear away which will free you to experience love, peace, joy, abundance and genuine gratitude for life. This is why even though I don't write comments on RUclips or anywhere really, I felt compelled to write all this out because I remember the hopeless dark days I used to live in and I hope this will inspire someone to set aside the distractions of this world and to pursue Jesus Christ. I used to be an unbeliever, trust me I would never think I would end up being a person to write this kind of thing but here we are. Also I'm aware of the ideas that surround atheists or agnostics of why people might turn to religions and I had/have literally no reason to do so. The idea of death never really scared me nor do I have any appeal or interest for eternal life. (The idea of eternal life still concerns me because I'm 21 and I think life is already getting too long but from the promise of Christ eternity will be beyond our imagination so there is that:). I mention this things so that you may consider the advice from here without building mental defenses to block out all the info here that might go against your current beliefs. Do what I did. Genuinely seek the Creator of the universe, and you, without any impure motives or intentions (meaning thinking of your gain/profit as the main intent for this pursuit), and I'm sure you'll encounter GOD through Lord Jesus Christ and not anything else. But keep in mind that your new transformed life after the encounter will be full of obstacles and trials. As the saying goes the Devil's greatest trick is that he convinced the world that he doesn't exist. So when you genuinely believe in Christ (meaning you could stake your life on it) you'll encounter spiritual adversaries from which you were safe before due to your unbelief. Remember that Christ already beat the devil so we're no longer bound to death or to sin but his LimiteD influence is still on you. Before we were hopeless, but now we have The Holy Spirit which lets us resist the temptations until they fade, without succumbing to sin. On your walk with Christ your faith will be tested, first by little then by much which will depend on how much you trust GOD and how much faith you have in his Word. If you do well from what little GOD gives you then He will entrust you with more. So remember that you'll never really get comfortable with your faith in GOD (it's not like a game where you get to a certain level then you fell at ease) because every time you'll have to trust GOD to an extent that you never did before which is easier said than done. Also remember that no one can prove the existence of GOD because the idea of Faith will be for not. "Faith and Fear both demand you to believe in something that you cannot see. You Choose." - Bob Proctor. We get this one short life on this planet so don't choose to live in fear because that's a prison that will keep you where you are, Stuck. The Fear of GOD however is described like fear you have of your parents, like a respectful thing, the same way we love our parents but also fear them. So this post turnout out way too long than what I initially wanted to say but I'm not gonna proofread it or edit it so if anyone read this far just remember the two most important commandments Jesus told us to keep. Love GOD with all you heart, mind and soul. And love your neighbor as yourself. To keep this commands just remember the care and effort you put in for the ones you love, so this love can translate into Action and everything you read here won't just end up as a head knowledge.

Every word you said was thoughtful and meaningful. Your words truly catalyzed my drive. It’d unexplainable. Thank you so much. I’ll always be grateful for watching your videos. I can’t wait till the day you achieve everything and more because you really really do deserve the world. I know you’ll buy your mom a beautiful home one day! Your hard work will definitely pay off.

edit: When I was writing this, I was preparing for high school entrance exam. I was studying with his lives and there were some days which I studied over 10 hours. I take the exam in 6th of June and... I wish I didn't studied that much. There were 6 lessons, turkish, revolution history, religious culture and english for verbal; math and science for numerical. NOTHING was in the exam that I studied for turkish, nothing. I would have done history in the exam if I didn't studied too. In science, I think it was good but they asked very difficult in math. There are 20 questions and they wrote one question for every page. One question was a different version of a question which was in the university exam. They asked one high school subject too.
I wish I didn't prepared that much for this exam. I didn't deserve this result even I studied for 10 months. I am only 14 but I feel older.

As a therapist I can only recommend to change your posture every couple minutes, so you stay somewhat in motion
I have this concern too. Recently, I found that sitting in the same posture and studying for hours, every day, is not a healthy thing. But I have to study for so long and so hard like that to achieve my dream. Since you said you are a therapist, could you suggest some ways to study for a long time without affecting my health? Also, is it okay to walk and study at the same time, I mean, like reading a book while walking?
@@brindhan I would suggest to just stand up while reading, walking could maybe a little distracting, but you can try this too.
Try to change the position of your legs every 10-20 minutes (like sitting on your feet, putting them under the chair, put just one leg up, sit on one leg etc etc) because your spine will automatically move with your legs and pelvis. Also change where you sit on the chair (sit on the edge straight, or slouch a little leaning back).
If you have and gaming chair, or office chair, just spin it. As you might see, the point is, not sit straight, but to playfully change your position in everyway possible.
Maybe consider to buy equipment, which holds your books, tablet or monitor, so you don't have to look down all the time. Also pezziballs are very good for you, you could sometimes sit on them instead of a chair.
At last I can only suggest to start workout your core, if you don't want to lift weights, becaus it gives your the strength to sit longer without pain. At least mobilize your spine every couple hours, by crossing your arm above your chest, so your left hand touches your right shoulder and the right hand the left should. Then slowly move your arms as far as possible up and down for like a minute, so you flex and extend the spine (also move your head!!). After this you can do big circles with your elbows (still crossed arms), so you have rotation, lateral flexion and extension and flexion. Laying on the ground, or over the ball (or a rolled up blanket) can help you to relax your muscles and stretch them.
Hope it will help you, I would be really interested what the results are :)

지금까지 봐왔던 어떠한 영상보다도 압도적이다. 그동안 나는 동기부여만 찾았는지 모르겠다. 운동을 하면서도 그때가 모두와 만나는 날이니 지금부터 시작하고 계속 하자 했지만 막상 그 날이 지나고 점차 줄었으며, 혼자가 힘들어 같이 공부하자며 스터디 그룹도 만들었지만 언제나 오래 이끌지 못했다. 그리고 결정적으로 직장생활에서 받은 번아웃에서 벗어나지 못했다. 그렇게 일을 그만두고 2년이란 시간을 아무것도 하지 않은 채 주변에서는 다양한 반응... 공감되지 못해 더욱이 듣기 싫었다. "그래 너 고생 진짜 많았어 쉬는 것도 괜찮아" "지금 아무런 준비도 안하고 그만둬도 돼?" "눈치보지 말고 편하게 공부해" "너 진짜 그러다 또 1년 지나간다니까 빨리 자격증 알아봐"계속 동기부여 영상이나 보며 sns를 보고 뉴스를 보며 나만 이런게 아니구나 합리화를 거쳐 나 자신을 위로했다. 계속 괜찮다고
이제 확실히 알겠다 번아웃, 매너리즘, 무기력증 이러한 것은 일종의 빙판길이다. 사람마다 미끄러졌을 때 누구는 부끄러워 금방 일어나 자리를 벗어나고, 누구는 남이 일으켜 주기도 한다 그게 친구든 처음보는 사람이든 아니면 민망해서 일어나지 못해 그대로 누워있는 채로 버티는 사람도 있을 것이다. 그러기에 내가 미끄러졌을 때 내가 일어날 방법이 있는데 몰랐다. 난 내가 미끄러진 줄 몰랐어서
이제 영상을 보고 나에 대해 이해했다 왜인지 모르지만 지금 댓글을 달면서도 난 울고있다. 나는 넘어졌을 때 항상 아무렇지 않게 툭툭 털며 일어났었다. 주변을 안심시킬려고 하는 의도도 있었고 반대로 남의 눈을 신경쓰지 않기도 했다. 너무 힘든 생활 때문이었나 왜 잊고 있었을까 난 이렇게 항상 툭툭 털고 지나갔었는데, 번아웃이나 이런게 그렇게 무서운게 아닌데
이영상을 같이 본 사람들도 자기자신에 대해 알고 정체기를 벗어나 잘 극복했음 좋겠다.

This is very interesting. I hope you’re more okay.

Don't forget to take care of yourself. There is no point in being successful if you sacrifice your own health
This ^
especially mental health
finally a comment saying this. i really respect what he's saying, but he looks so sad and tired
True, exercise is also ultra important
he says that in the vid
Studied 12 hours a day is easy, focusing for 12 hours without distraction is the challenge
He has great advice, but anyone with severe ADD or ADHD will struggle with this method.
@@astrodreamer946 He isn't advocating the method though. Studying consistently for even one or 2 hours throughout a year is something most of us cannot keep up with, and this guy spent almost half of a year studying. He is just explaining how he got through it all, because the rest of us would be like "I can't be motivated enough to do anything that hard", he is not saying how studying 12 hours a day would change everyone's lives.
@@nazifawali9699: I understand this now. Thank you
my trick is when you reach the point that nothing cant distract you try to keep that point. Dont get out from there. Keep reaching that point is alrady hard.Dont repeat it.
@Odysseus right. A person who is ADHD really needs to be up and moving to learn. That is why Montessori can be good for some children.
I see people in the comments romanticizing studying half a day, but it really isn't as easy as you think. As he said, the quality needs to be high too. I think studying 12 hours a day or taking up a significant portion of your day isn't healthy and realistic for most people. You'll probably have low sleep, no time for hobbies or skill development, burnout, mood swings, you may even lose friends. He literally said not to push yourself too hard, just because he can do it doesn't mean everyone can and its not fun. You need to take care of your health and ensure quality over quantity of studying. The amount of time you study for isn't equivalent to your success or value. Effort doesn't always breed success. Listen to what he says, dude.
Yeah, 12 hours a day is overkill. It isn’t even half the day cause you have to sleep. Studying that amount of time would surely just mean you’re not studying WELL cause you can’t concentrate for that long. Why not find better ways to remember things, like visual stimuli, explaining to others etc. And the 3:30 am video? I can’t, I thought that was a parody!!!
I studied 12 hours for my sciences for 5 consecutive days, I burnt out 3 months later, was still studying though
@@leafleafleaf9272 I know right? Other methods still exist, dude, people in the comments should chill. There are MANY more effective methods lf studying that will let you live a normal life. Health comes first.
@@RingsideReels Health should always come first, you are lucky to be able to keep studying because others would lose their momentum after something like that and fall out completely. I know I would.
@@Ash-pp6yt thanks. But I have another question, I just did my tests, my GCSE's, and currently it is my summer break. Would you, personally, reccomend studying in the summer break as preparation despite me studying for long periods of time?

I've lived more than 25 years doing good thing, maybe not grand or super good, but I try my best to not disappoint.

not saying hard work won't be rewarded, but I just to say life sucks, which means not every hard work get rewarded, not every good intention results in good thing happening.
You need to know when you need to cut off some people, you need to know when you need to put everything, know when not to pursue some stuff.
It is hard, it's not as easy as reading any book or doing daily good habits, it's a culmination of many complicated stuff which I probably say no one can explain in detail everything, which is why everything usually oversimplified to several bullet points, some encouraging speech and stuff.
but it's still all won't be enough

As a teacher I have to say that motivation sucks. Today you have it, and tomorrow it's gone. Work and discipline is what you need guys, trust me.
Arent work and discipline drive by motivation?
@@antomat85 I'm guessing he means motivation / impulse vs constructing a fonctional work routine. The creator of the video says it himself early in this video.
Getting motivated is rather easy but it is volatile - work and discipline are about putting a routine that will allow you to stay focus no mater the situation.
teachers aint shit
@@amigaway there is no motivation versus work. Or they go togerher, or it will not work...
If u work without motivation, u will burnout.
@@antomat85 my motivation is driven by constant anger due to my terrible childhood and abusive family. At least i am able to turn it into something positive instead of the opposite. He's right, it's all about the mindset. I must admit that over the time, it is taking too much tolls on me and sometimes I found myself tearing up while working (im 28 y/o) for no reason.
Hey bro, I’m a 15 year old boy from South Africa and if you read this or not does not matter but I just wanted to say that it’s 11 pm in the night and while whatching RUclips I stumbled across your video. Yesterday our school locked down due to COVID and I just heard earlier today I’m COVID positive and I’m rethinking my life decisions even though I might seem weird.

So I just wanted to thank you for uploading this video and I hope only good things pass your path from now on🤞

Watching this again after 1 year. Throughout this 1 year I studied for 12 hours a day. Your this video really helped me in my life even though I was waiting for a blast but you gave me the startup
Did you start with 12 hrs the very first day or built up to it slowly?
@@janewambui2065 from the very first day
@@janewambui2065From the very first day. But not right after I watched it. There were some environmental factors that played role in this transformation. Without that I would have started to study seriously anyways but not with the same rage. I forgot about sleep and meal at the beginning but I slowly felt the necessity to build up a routine.
When he started crying, I understand now. This person is dead serious, this person knows what he wants to do and what he wants to achieve, he realizes that his actions don't fit the picture. He needs to change himself, he realized the importance and how useless the things he used to do and feel are. This is a lesson, I'm not on your level yet.

37 back at uni after being a dr … never tooo late as who wants to miserable the rest of their life ???
I understand why he's doing this because I was the same in my many years before commencing into college. I tried so hard to study, it was tough for me. My parents were looked down by people, and I couldn't stand it seeing them being insulted, that's why I tried. There are times I could not focused and was so tired of studying things that I didn't enjoy. I collapsed until I decided to get myself up again and studying in tears. So I just want to say, being driven by your own goals is good, that's what make you succeed. But remember it should be for your own shakes but not others (which will make the drive last longer). And if you can't study as hard, it's completely OK! I've been forcing myself too hard that I did not feel peace and happy at all, and this was my lesson after those years. So the important thing is to know your limit, because there IS a limit for each person (for what you have given physically). When you know there's a limit, you can take suitable studying methods without pushing yourself too much. Peace 🕊️
Love unconditionly on what u doing, for loving one topic that u not interested there is some mind hacks tips to love things that u distracted for a certain period of time l.
The meaning of life is our relationship with God. These four steps are the key to getting a Divine Revelation directly from him. They are something you'd eventually do if you took God seriously enough to read the Bible, while implementing its teachings. They are, forgive your parents, break down before Jesus, ask for forgiveness, and read three books of the Bible. Step four requires the first book of each testament, and one you chose yourself. The order is actually important. The steps build on each other. Each one primes your soul for the next. To be forgiven we must forgive. Mathew 6: 14-15. That's why forgiving others has to come before asking for forgiveness. Jesus will not forgive you until you've at least done the bare minimum, our parents. They're supposed to be easiest to forgive, because they've fed, housed, loved us to some degree. Our problems with them are supposed to represent our problems with God. This is why the bare minimum to receive the revelation is our parents. You'll still have to forgive everyone though, but that comes much easier after meeting God. I'm extremely serious and very literal. I'm not talking about signs, nor feelings, nor prayer. It's an actual literal pulled out of your body direct one on one conversation, nothing you can miss. nor misinterpretae. The vast majority of christans never bother to do what God wants seriously, so most never get this revelation. To most outside church their Bible is a paper weight, or at best a virtue signal. Their religion is in what other people think about them, not their relationship with God. Please do those steps I mentioned, there really is a Divine Revelation waiting for all of us. There's extraordinarlly important information we all desperately need in this revelation, but those who get it are forbidden to share it. The Truth that Jesus Christ is Lord is written on every human heart. We all have that knowledge inside us, but we bury it under mountains of pain and anger. Those steps clear away that garbage inside you, letting God heal you, so that his words boom clearly inside your soul. The entire point of our existence here is to Trust God enough that we pay him this mustard seed of Faith, so his Grace can remove the stain sin has left on our souls. Everyone that does not get this Grace is not forgiven of any of their sins, even if they turned around and we're the best person from 25 to death. Without Grace those first sins are still counted against you, tying you to the devil's punishment. It's not about being a good person, It's about being forgiven for when you weren't. The Bible is Truth. Please do those steps and see for yourself. Please take your salvation seriously.,,

As a 27 year old I want to let you know that you have time. The urgency you felt was a positive force to accomplish this feat but i've nearly wasted my entire 20's to watching youtube videos and pointlessly wasting away not doing anything substantive for my future. The reality is it's better to realize these things regardless of when and to use that as a reason to drive yourself to a future that you want. Sending you love James, this has inspired me immensely to focus on my path. I deeply thank you for making this video.
Same age as you same problem! I have ADHD and it makes things like youtube a legit addiction for me. It's never too late to start doing something. Use a calendar to plan your day. Or set aside a small chunk of 15-30 mins to practice a specific goal. Don't just do a broad goal like "learn to program" or "lose weight" use the calendar app on your phone and set reminders. Also the therapy app called bloom was life changing for me for motivation strategies and learning how to overcome limitations rather than "get a good mindset bruh" I wish you good luck and you can totally do it!

5. Excercise and eat healthy. Watch your physical state (have good posture ~ invest in things like ergonomic chairs and angular book stand)

It's great of you to pay attention and focus on the important things in the video and life. I'm on a similar path too. All the best.
i dont know how this ended up in my recommendations (because i never watch this kind of videos) but im really happy i ended up here. it's like a getting a life lesson that nobody gives you irl
you reminded me why I'm here like no one said before , i don't want to spend all my day in Instagram or you tube channels they don't take me anywhere , i wanna be a good mom, buy a house for my dad:)) these words made sense a lot...i wanna be like you, strong, serious, straight on my way. thanks again, i really appreciate you and your hard work bro wish you the bests💖
I can't even bother to study for 12 seconds for an entirety of a year. This is beyond my abilities as a human being.
I'm doing the same thing this summer
I always studied for 2-3 hours the take a rest..or if something made me rage quit studying like the question is too or something..i just go to sleep..this happens to me in university..lecturer making question too hard or make the answer just inconventional.
@@iori7370 that's disrespectful of you to call his hard work stupid at least he is doing something productive that helps him become a better version of himself everyday instead of wasting his time browsing through RUclips commenting on videos or doing some fucked up shit in the streets
@@jndf7207 how are you gonna call someone’s hard work stupid ? He has the responsibility to study, isn’t it great? He most certainly has some goals he wants to achieve and kudos to him for that.
Why are you still literally everywhere
Weird, nerd, introvert, struggle in school, finding who you are, finding what you live for ... that was you, that is me. Your video really attacks me. I wish my English was better to express my feelings and thinking right now. I just wanna say that i saw my better me in you and you make me want to push myself again. Thank you, stay safe and stay healthy!
ps: from Vietnam with love
Ur English is pretty good, bud👍
your english is great!
English is great keep it up
bro you speak insane no joke
tiếng Anh của bạn không có vấn đề gì đâu. Cố gắng nhé!

Thank you
You honestly don’t understand how much this really helped me today. It’s been hard for me since quarantine started. I’ve been failing my classes and my mom’s constantly pressuring me to get my grades up, do this and that, and constantly being compared to others with higher gpa’s. I start losing focus more often than I usually do. I’m a sophomore right now in hs and I’m still confused on what my goal is :/. Whenever I get yelled at I’d blame it on my parents, but I realized that they just want what’s best for me and then I’d blame myself for not trying hard enough. I’m the type of person to keep things to myself and it’s really hard for me to open up to people and ask them for help. Again , thank you for an amazing message!
We are going through the same thing. I hope everything goes well for you!!
Focus on what you can do right now, not on all you have to do. Focus on the process, study hours instead of grades. As long as you put in your work, dont care about what your mom says about other kids gpa.
Its your life and you can only follow your path and not someone else's.
Keep chasing, You!
I'm literally in a point of my life where I have no motivation to do anything and blame myself for it. Instead of doing, I escape from it. This video was an eye opener to me. Thank you, James!
i'd care react if this was facebook
Im at the same point, I have zero drive to do/achieve anything at all. I havent even studied for the past 4 days properly.
IMPULSE NOT MOTIVATION! KEEP IT UP, I KNOW IM GONNA SEE YOU IN DA NEWS!
Him: studied 12 hours a day for a year
Me: studied 12 hours in total for a year

It's ok you can improve, not everyone is like him it takes time for good things :)

It's worth to watch the whole video
@@dopaminedetox9619 yup
kinda agree this video is an experience more than a lecture
@@dopaminedetox9619 do you remove the table of contents from every book you read?
The level of mental strength it takes to cry on camera.. I wish I was this confidant
@@timeless_7379 "Confidante" is a valid word, it means same as "confidant", its not much used, usually used for females, and not exactly same meaning as "confident"
@@artemisDev Yeah, but “confidante” means “a person with whom one shares a secret or private matter, trusting them not to repeat it to others” which just doesn’t make sense in this context, though it is related to the topic at hand. OP definitely meant to say “confident”
my best friend was this way
It's good for likes as well.
He is depressed
You can tell he's intelligent...he even sit's like L in deathnote.
fr it gives me L vibes
Amaterasu
Hahah thats funny
It's not about intelligence it's about who can put his heart in it
Lmaaoooo
I have this issue with procrastination and impulsive motivation, it resulted in me failing my study. I dont think its too late at all though, im 21 and still alot of life ahead of me. I want to start now though and continue with what i am studying. I genuinly love the subject and its just i allowed an emotional aspect fog my thoughts. Im not too upset about failing, although i feel guilty but i know that you must fail to succeed. Your one on one talk is great and comforting to listen too. I wish you well in succeeding in your drive.
I just want to give this guy a hug, this is such a contrast to the romanticised idea of studying or being successful. You can tell that he suffered a lot to push himself like that. It’s comforting and important to those who also feel insecure and without drive because reminds us that following your aspirations is difficult.
The guy is committed af. Kudos
Well i cant go beyond 8 hours a day for a week, this guy is something else
@@soham4741 only his life suffering who makes him do that
it is also completely unnecessary.
@@Danuxsy suffering is 100% necessary to achieve anything "great". living in comfort just gets you an average life man.
I went from broke (25k a year) to 125k a year. what did I have to do? live at my shop and commit 100% for 3 years.
now ask yourself. was my sacrifice worth it? and where would I be without it?
edit: I would do it again 100 times over. I still live at my shop, despite it not being required. it boosted my self confidence, my quality of life, and exponentially amplified the comfort I can have in the future. living in slight discomfort keeps me pushing forward. I get complacent when life is too comfortable
2nd edit: my sacrifice allowed me to create 3 full time jobs as well. so your sacrifices have a ripple effect, as well as compounding my own "wealth"
