Hey folks! A lot of y'all commented on my focus challenges and mentioned ADHD...so I made a video where I get tested: ruclips.net/video/oW-SqCXIeHE/видео.htmlsi=H5NwEeiO5Ibofn7r I also made a follow up video focused solely on improving my T levels: ruclips.net/video/R3SYyq2HMOc/видео.html&ab_channel=GoalGuys Thanks for watching y'all!
Thank you for sharing you experience-- focus is everything indeed, is hard and yet as you proved, is attainable for meaningful stretches on a daily basis. I do think it gets "easier" (or the process of re-focus more familiar and facile) over time. Best Wishes, Andrew
Appreciate the comment Andrew! Thanks for all the work you do in sharing information in a way that is both understandable and actionable. Hope you and Costello are well! Cheers!
i am diagnosed with self distraction and i have adhd and I just find it so hard to stay focused. It's aufull feeling that I'm going to be like this for the rest of my life.. This video is so relatable, I was even going to cry in that part
@@powerpowerpower a camera is different than a phone. it's not giving you constant notifications, access to the entire world, and a million tempting apps. Yes you can distract yourself with a camera, but dont pretend like it's even comparable to a phone in that regard lol
Huberman helped change my life, dude. I went from a suicidal, depressed alcoholic in a loveless marriage during the pandemic to an unrecognizable, happy, sober divorced dad. I don't recall being this content since I was a child. Great video!!
This is the first time I’ve heard a RUclipsr admit to themselves the harsh reality of being self-employed. Thank you, I appreciate you being real with it.
I felt that moment in the car so hard. Literally in the same situation with my podcast that burnt me out and now I'm dealing with trauma from not living up to my own expectations and dreams. It's soul crushing and something I'm still learning to cope with and fight back from. Crazy.
@@NV-gv7fo Had what up to 25%? Self employment tax is FICA (Medicare and Social Security) and it's long been about 15%. People working for someone else split it half and half with their employer, roughly. People working for themselves pay the whole thing. That was true under Obama, Trump, and Biden.
@@jamesbroderick5311you’re suffering trauma because you tried to do something with a wildly low percentage of success? You don’t know what the word trauma means. Go visit a veterans hospital sometime. Maybe it’ll stop you from portraying your struggle as anything significant
8:07 - 9:30 I've never heard someone so exactly describe the grief inside me that no one around me has understood when I try to explain it. Thank you ... I needed that.
Us bro us. May be the problem is work from "home" itself. I have bad habits of surfing the internet. I'm ready to sacrifice internet. But without internet, I can't work. I work as a content writer.
So good to hear that I'm also not alone in that. It's such a burden to carry to feel like that unproductive version of myself is who I'm destined to be. Thank you for sharing.
1. Write down the time you wake up 2. 10-15min walk 3. Drink saltwater 4. Drink athletic green 5. 90min work 6. Physical exercise 7. Cold shower 8. Have breakfast/brunch/lunch at around 11am Edit: don't forget to leave your phone behind, this is the key to success in this routine. Thanks for noticing! And personally, I prefer to write down the goals right after noting the time I wake up, that helps me redefine and reaffirm my visions for the future.
If I only do 90 mins of real work before noon, and step out of the office to go exercise for an hour, my boss would be like: WTF? Get back to your desk!!
No one talks about the self-discipline required to be the selfpreneur or freelancer. This is incredibly relatable. Know you’re not alone. I’ve tested the 45min work, 15min break idea which has helped. I “only” have to do 45 mins at a time and this feels more achievable. Thought it was worth a share to try!
I thk for ppl who’ve tried the same routine but still feels like hard to focus like our friend said in this video: TRY *MEDITATION* …. *it’s that hard-proof method used by Tom Brady + Lebron James both huge successfully!!
Totally agree. I have ran my own businesses for twenty years now and the main obstacle has always been myself. Just because a person is creative and able to think of great ideas doesn't mean we're the best people at carrying out all tasks related to getting to the goal. From studying my degree this seemed to me to be the biggest difference between Leadership and Management. Ideas people and people who handle the tasks given to them to achieve the idea- very rare do you find both abilities in the same person. I know I don't excel in both areas.
It felt like i was watching myself for 14 minutes straight, and that self talk at 08:10 that really hit hard. 8 years and still struggling with the same issue leaving so much potential on the table. thank you so much for this video.
Really appreciated the cinematography! All the little time lapse touches and contrasts between the old and the new worked really well to communicate your points! I think it's in atomic habits, the idea of, "When you have bad habits, time is your enemy; but with good habits, time is your ally." This new routine seems like it will continue to pay compound interest in your life. Thanks for sharing!
i hope that day 30 wasnt your final day and that you are continuing this routine, you seem so happy and satisfied. you have truly inspired me. thank you.
Honestly? This is one of the most relatable, funny, light mood and inspiring video I've watched this week. Thanks for being so open and humble. I'm happy for your and will give this a try myself! Can't thank you enough! Keep going! Cheers ✌🏻🙌🏻
8:00 - 9:48 Man I have NEVER in my 7 years of struggling heard someone explain EXACTLY what I am going through. I thought I was broken somehow, but fixable. I feel really stupid as you finally revealed the answer; my relationship with my phone is toxic. At the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!
Brother, you have a huge heart and an immense amount of determination. I too was unable to show up in my life at full capacity since my dad passed in 2012. I ended up with colitis amongst other extreme dis ease within my body. Aug 12 2023 I chose to do a 45 day fast, that I created for myself, of all misalignments in my life that were keeping me from operating out of my highest form. During thisnfast I also feasted for 45 days on all alignments. I used wisdom that I have gained from life, teachers and coaches that I have had the pleasure of receiving thought out my life. Doing this for myself brought so much energy and clarity and drive to serve and do my good works. Thank you for doing this for yourself, for having self worth and for being vulnerable. These traits create unconditional love within our hearts. Look at all the love and opportunity for others to build their faith in themselves. Thank you again for sharing your journey!
Your speech at 8:10, "Maybe I'm not the person I thought I was. I'm leaving so much potential on the table" really resonated with me. I'm gonna give this morning routine a try because I seriously need a jolt. Thanks for your videos.
People don't notice this . But much efforts the goal guys do on editing and scripting is top notch . Really makes me feel the video is like a well structured with being informative and helpful to the general audience and also the topics they touch on doing is just genius like taking on the trend and seeing if it actually works out or not .
The 'car talk' truly resonated with me on a deep level. 1. It made me realize that the challenges I face are not unique to me alone. It's reassuring to know that others have experienced similar setbacks and obstacles along their journey. 2. This kind of self-realization is a powerful reminder that we all have the capacity to reflect upon ourselves during moments of demotivation. By looking inward and examining our own actions, attitudes, and perspectives, we hold the key to making meaningful changes in our lives. It empowers us to take responsibility for our circumstances and actively seek solutions, rather than succumbing to a sense of helplessness.
@@lennart4686 Man I heard about this book also from Anfrew Huberman videos, there is women that recommended me this book and asked me to share it. It was good for me
@@lennart4686 I just checked her bio, definitely a scam. "I’m Dr. Rachel Morgan, a former general medicine practitioner with years of experience in the healthcare industry"....... basically she was an intern for half a day and is now an expert after serving unspecified "years" in the industry. 😂
@@lennart4686 Definitely a scam. Book got published on Amazon UK on 14 July 2024. This fake account "FinnMorgan2111" got created 24 jul 2024. Come on guys... Why do you rely on these tactics to accelerate your sales? Just do a quality product, give free copies to important and honest people on the subject which will make honest reviews and you will have success. Definitely not buying this book.
Dude. Everything about this video, from the story arc to cinematography, the editing, all of it was so so good. One of the best RUclips videos I’ve seen. Bonus points for the content cuz I’m a huberman boi myself. You took it to a new extreme so I’m inspired to apply these ideas with more rigor in my own life. Cheers 🎉
And can we also talk about the fact that this is why a "9 to 5" (a dirty word on the internet, I know) can be so vital for many people? It not only forces you to learn routine, it forces you to learn that doing hard things pays off. Not everyone's just automatically built to self-start and be a natural entrepreneur, and that's okay. There is nothing wrong with spending your 20s in a good, rewarding 9 to 5 to learn the tools to become professionally independent in your 30s. It's not degrading or failure.
Increasingly lost 20-something year-old here. Submitting to a 9 - 5 (even loosely) has been gradually changing my life for these exact reasons, both for work and study. I appreciate you taking the time to leave this comment.
I can relate. There’s people like me who thrive with interacting with people, being on a team, and getting out of the house. I tried the solopreneur route for over a year (doing something I enjoyed), but burned out. I discovered how important it is for me to do things, especially work, with others.
@@TheBloofyx Life is a dead end. You need to learn to enjoy those soul crushing moments, as what you are sold as ideal financially independent lifestyle is a lie. Enjoy the shitty moments, as life only gets worse no matter what you do. Old age guarantees it.
Of all the videos relating to sleep and morning routines, this is the very best that I have seen. I related shockingly well to your "car talk," in that I realized that I've felt the very same thing about myself for several years now: maybe I'm just not the person I thought I was. For 6+ years, I have been wondering what the heck I'm doing - and, following 2020, that feeling definitely became exacerbated. I'm now asking myself if it's because of my horrible routine(s) that I've been doubting myself and feeling unsure of what my goals and career interests even are. Maybe I AM the kind of person who wants to and can do meaningful work; maybe I am a morning person; maybe I would be interested in 'career A' if I were more focused in general. I honestly didn't think that a RUclips video would ever make me feel this way, so I'm so thankful I clicked on this video at 3am. I appreciate just how genuine and sincere your message and efforts are. This could be the late night fumes talking - but I feel inspired to tackle a similar routine, because I'm just blown away with what this one has done for you. Thank you very much for sharing this personal journey - and in such a beautifully filmed and edited video, to boot!
It's my first time stumbling upon one of your videos. I am about 1/3 through watching this. WOW OMG. The quality of this video, camera work, the editing, the humor. everything, all that, blows my mind. Love it. You and your brother are so likeable.
Can totally relate. I’m not a morning person and I’ve been self employed for a decade. Walks in the morning, Ac vinegar, water and electrolytes first thing have been a game changer. I find when I work at my local coffee shop for a few hours I get more done than the same amount of time at home. The change of location, the white noise of people around me, and an americano makes a huge difference in my ability to focus. I also notice an improvement in focus working on my balcony in nice weather.
That car talk summed up my last two years. I'm 23 y.o., I work from home since the beggining of the pandemic and still feel like I could go higher and do better. Seriously thinking about giving this routine a try and see if I can see any improvments! Great video, and cheers from Portugal!
Pedro, have you started? If so, how is it going? If you haven't started, why not? Consider this a prod (from a stranger, I know, but if it gets you to try, so be it).
I feel similarly; school burnt me out, and then the pandemic hit and allowed me to sink deep into a rut. I managed to worsen my procrastination habit which I picked up in college, and my sleep suffered as well. I quickly began feeling as though I no longer had the capacity / strength / energy to do any exceptionally meaningful work. That said, my hope is that I can utilize some of what I learned from this video and improve my self-discipline and even my self-esteem. So far, this is perhaps the most genuine and sincere of this type of video that I have found. The "car talk" hit me right in the face, because it's exactly how I've been feeling about myself. I hope I can prove to myself that I can do so much more than for which I'm barely giving myself credit. I'm not sure about the cold showers and the saltwater... but, I'm certainly willing to try everything else suggested.
I felt that talk in the car, you’re not the only one that feels that way. I totally understand how you feel. But thanks for putting this video out there because it definitely impacted my own journey of becoming the best version of myself self! Thank you!
I really related to this. I just wanted to thank you for making this video. I’m a 54 year old woman who has never taken the time to comment on a video until now. Sending this to my kids as well. Many thanks and keep up the good work. You are motivating me!
Wow, I teared up when you had that moment in the car. I’ve been feeling the same way about my business too. 6.5 years in… so relatable. Thank you for sharing, very excited to start trying this!
Hello. My name is Carlos Hernandez from Aguascalientes Mexico. You can't imagine how much I loved your video, I felt like you were describing me at the time you were going through those bad times but the attitude, the energy, the music, the video in general was excellent. congratulations and keep it up. Thank you for sharing that journey. Muy chingon.
The car talk was so relatable. I'm trying to get somewhere in my life from past 3 years are I'm failing miserably. I hope this routine helps me to get where I imagine myself. A big thanks to you! I was feeling very low, seeing you in the same situation as me and then improving is giving me so much motivation also i am feeling a bit better. THANK YOU🥺🥺
me too, for the last 5 years. I though I was still on depression although a felt completely cured. One day I met an astrologer and explained to me that due to some combination of signs I keep loosing my goals and don't have a sense of time😄 (that's also what my mother used to tell me!). I am the queen of procrastination 👸The funny thing is that even in that situation what I can do to help myself is to keep a routine and stick to it! With astrology at least is way less the guilty feelings you have. You stop judging yrself and also stop incriminate yr parents that they are responsible for what is happening to you (that's what we usually do😊)!!
I very much wished I had seen a video like this when I was still self-employed and going through the exact same struggle. I've now submitted to the 9-5 and have very mixed feelings about that.
As someone who has started this routine for about a month now. The lack of motivation was making me crazy. This helps me so much to understand it's normal and the thing I need to do right now. Thank you so much for this
Man you have me in tears and smiling at the same time! This is so relatable. My problem is that it´s not my phone that is distracting me, but the access to Internet (RUclips) on my computer. It is so tempting to go for a a quick dopamine hit instead of focusing and getting shit done! I´m giving this morning routine a try!!
That was a really good video! Thank you specifically for staying open about your moment of vulnerability... Seeing you hone in on figuring out WHY and asking the relavant questions and tweaking the routine, or using your experience to grow is SUCH a good and needed contrast to the 'giving up' mentality that permeates our culture nowadays. Thank you!
Bro, I started to cry when you started talking about fighting productivity and thinking this is who you are. Dang man! I say this as an Army Combat Veteran, you made me think hard about myself. I cant thank you enough! But Thank you!
1- wake up around 06:30 am 2- walk, get sunlight in your eyes 3- no caffeine for 90 mins after waking up 4- drink water with sea salt 5- fast until 11:00 am 6- 90 mins of cognitive work 7- physical exercise for an hour (i prefer stretching and light work since we need energy for college or work) 8- cold shower (begginers don't start with freezing water, work it up)
Man, that moment of self-reflection in the car felt like I was looking in the mirror. Wanting so badly to accomplish more, making radical lifestyle changes, and still not being able to force your brain to comply. Take this with a grain of salt because the root of why people function the way they do varies, but earlier this year I was diagnosed with ADHD at the ripe age of 33. Still dialing in the right medication, working to build healthy habits in therapy, and undoing a lifetime of bad coping mechanisms, but I can’t stress enough how life-changing that diagnosis has been. Appreciate the vulnerability in the video, my dude, and hope the lifestyle changes stick.
I have to say that I haven't seen nor found yet anyone talking about the fact that your video edition was on point .. making it look like an actual short movie .. the storyline, the shots and music .. nicely done ✔️ 👏
01:19 Huberman's routine includes early wake-up, sunlight exposure, delayed caffeine, cognitive workout, exercise, and cold exposure. 03:37 Struggles with productivity, distractions, and procrastination persist throughout the challenge. 08:49 Constant phone use hampers focus during work sessions. 12:43 After the challenge, the RUclipsr sees improved energy, mood, and productivity, planning to maintain some routine practices.
You are a master at portraying a MASTERFUL story man I was glued the entire time. Also appreciate how the sponsor reel is at the end Well done, and thank you for this
Bro, first of all, I want to acknowledge you for allowing yourself to appear vulnerable, almost to tears in the car, to the rest of us. That is pure authenticity and from one man to another, this shows true masculinity. Secondly, thank you for inspiring me and being a role model. Nothing comes easy and nothing is given to us until we put in the hard work and then get the satisfaction of having accomplished goals which is so rewarding on a personal level.
Great experimental design and data tracking. I also relate to your sentiments about self-motivating and the phone. Here's the version I will try to balance the sentiment with having two small children (albeit with the benefit of daycare). Modified Routine: - 6:30 Wake, record time, get dressed, change baby's diaper, and dress him for the day - 6:45 15 min walk outside with the baby in a stroller - 7:00 Saltwater drink, breakfast for kids, pack lunches - 7:45 Drop kids off at daycare/school - 8:15 90-minute work block, drink more water :-) - 9:45 Exercise, drink more water - 10:45 Cold shower - 11:00 Early lunch Phone: Because I need to keep the phone on for daycare/school emergencies, I'll set the phone to "Do not disturb" with overrides for my partner, daycare, school, and any other double calls. However, the phone will be in my baby's room, and I'll take the baby monitor to my office. That way, I can hear important calls but must work much harder to go check my phone.
This made me emotional... I absolutely love it when people better themselves 🎉 Well done! Your car chat was so relatable... ADHD makes it especially difficult to focus. Healthy habits and routines is a must for ADHD.
Yes this! i was like, he would end up taking adderall or something. :3 luckily no. becomes so annoying that even though i can do it, i wont coz i dont wanna and every element of body is saying no, just coz i dont like it in that moment.
Paused at 9 minutes to drop in and say thank you for this video. Your authenticity is awesome. I feel like someone went into my brain and made a video about it. Can't remember the last time I commented on a video, but this is expertly crafted, creative, and impactful.
For real! I echo the sentiment! The authenticity was real! I felt it because it is me saying and feeling that. I can't thank you enough for taking on this challenge. Power on!
That car talk was real … that’s the day I’ve been growing my beard and put my self through all the hardships to grow to grow and be a proud true MAN … PAIN DOESNT STOP A MANN
When I got a dog, I had to take him out for his little puppy walks first thing in the morning, and that made me feel great right away. The morning walk before anything else is key. When he got older I used to sometimes get up before the sun on weekends, take an hour hike before anything else with him. When I got home I would wake the family, and make breakfast. Those were the best days ever. So much energy, and I felt like I got shit done.
Would be interesting to see a follow-up to this. It's easy to commit to something for 30 days because there's an "endpoint", but are you still keeping up with the routine even though there's a lot less accountability (i.e. you're not doing it for a 'project' anymore) ?
The usual time for forming a habbit is around 90 days, 3 months. So if you are able to stick with a routine for that long probably it stays. Of course that doesn't mean you can't fall back, but isn't a "chore" anymore.
As much as I love to see his positive attitude after doing all that, reviewing his blood work he said everything was better, but it is not. He doesn't read the paper right because he does not understand the numbers (eg. lower number does not automatically mean better). Seeing his testosterone went up, the first column is the result, but that means, reading the results, a lot of the things got worse. HDL that is the good kind of cholesterol is the same, while LDL (bad) got higher and the total cholesterol is higher as well (eating habits). His morning cortisol also skyrocketed, which means his morning stress increased a lot (still in the norm, but way higher), that can cause a lot of issues if it increases more (think of anxiety for example). His insulin also went a bit up but negligible amount so far (still too high though). TSH dropped too, but still in the norm unless it continues to drop... So yes, the testosterone improved a lot, and that's great. But it also seems like this put a lot of stress on his body. I would honestly try other methods to increase the TST... Granted of course the bloodwork is influenced by many things he did not specify or even thought about, so I would just keep monitoring and see if it continues to worsen or not. All and all, the amount of stress is not worth it imho, there are more not as drastic ways to increase tst. I am not saying Huberman's routine is bad, but everyone is different and not everything will sit well with you. I know that cold showers/plunges literally skyrocket my stress for the rest of the day, so they are a huge no no for me for example.
Huberman’s routine sounds harder than it is. He built this routine to help increase dopamine, therefore it has built a built in motivation mechanism. For me the key part was the early morning light exposure. And you begin to somehow crave and dread the cold showers at the same time.
@@rybosaur6860I believe Huberman has addressed the increase in morning cortisol in one of his podcasts as a positive outcome - cortisol is naturally meant to rise in the morning as it helps get you up. You want higher values in the morning. If your cortisol is low in the morning it’s not desirable.
Thank you soooo much for sharing your experience! Your vulnerability and transparency with your struggles and being scared that you're leaving potential on the table really hit me. I'm sooo freaking happy for you and you've inspired me! ✨

Thank you very much for showing the vulnerable moment in the car! (around minute 9) I have felt this way many times, it is hard to work "only" for ourselves. Thanks for being so open!
I love this vulnerability! It's so incredible to see a man be open and vulnerable like in the car, with the fears and challenges of this process. Beautiful. I feel you brother! Progress and breaking old patterns is tough work and scary as hell, but so dang essential. Stoked for you my man! Keep it up!
Can you please post a one year update? An honest review on if you're still doing this routine and on what worked/what didn't, biggest speed bumps/hurdles, what you wished you kept doing, what you're glad that you're still doing etc. If you've fallen off the bandwagon, document yourself getting back onto a routine that worked for you. As humans, we all stumble so this would probably be an encouraging video for many, many people to watch.
Man, i felt this to my very core. I go through these waves all the time. You've just inspired me to give this routine a go for 30days! I'm so proud of you dude- your potential is limitless!
The talk in the car had me in shambles. I've had that exact same convo with myself amd nothing seems to help. Thank you for this video and being vulnerable!
Daily Meditation and limiting phone use helped me overcome the focus aspect in nearly every aspect of my life. Meditation is really just the act of building focus, where you're focusing on mindfulness and awareness, so you're not on autopilot as it were. I'd love to see what your experience is like after trying it for 20 mins a day over 4 weeks. Nevertheless, great to see you smash through that plateau!
I never actually comment on YT videos but this one was amazing. Just discovered the video after watching HubermanLab videos, it is honnestly one of the best videos I have seen. The experience is amazing and your storytelling/filmmaking skills are awesome too, I literally got goose bumps at the end of the video and I thank you a lot for that. I will definitely be checking more of your videos !
I used to drink 10 tall cans of beer a day for years. But after I turned 27 I decided to try ending my showers with 3 minutes of showering in cold water and stop drinking cold turkey. I feel like a super hero. I finally feel in control. Started a 6 week workout program and have been making sure to set at least 2 goals for the next day and completing them. It's crazy how effective, willingly putting yourself through something struggling is in improving your overall mental health and sense of determination for the day. Master roshi always said: " one must eat, sleep, play and learn something every day" and he was right. 💪🏻
It was hard to hear your struggles man, that's incredibly rough. When you said you are fighting against something, I really relate. For me it was caused by ADHD. Other things can cause executive function issues and difficulty with productivity too. But that's what it was for me, and diagnosis changed my life.
I also had to immediately think of my experience with ADHD... I know there are many other reasons for executive disfunction but it definitely felt similar to a lot of my struggles.
Same! Watching this, felt so close to home. I left my 11 year teaching career due to burnout, and started working for myself and it’s been SUCH a challenge to motivate myself. Not just for work but even for all the things I usually enjoy.
Man, the "not the person I thought I was" part REALLY hit home. Just imagine that feeling, except being caused by a decade of hardcore addiction and even after losing 29 personal friends since high school (our generation has lost more to opiates in single years than the entirety of the Vietnam conflict) you still can't break it, because it is quite literally your brain & body SCREAMING at you to get what it needs to function normally. Doesn't matter how much you hate it, doesn't matter that you were the one kid out of all your friends that was all about doing everything all natural and this is totally against every fiber in your being, not even really liking alcohol growing up. Doesn't matter your background or family history at all either. Just a few injuries in the group of friends later, EVERYONE is hooked before they even know what withdrawals really are. You start to hate your SELF, start to think that it's over with you f*cked up, you'll never be the same, you may as well end it because this is who you are now. That was 4 years ago when I felt like that, now? I'm teaching guitar & music production full time, living out my dream & passion with ZERO want for an escape like before. Playing in a few different bands/projects, and gaining more & more students every week. No matter what they tell you (be it NA, AA, your family, society, whoever) they're WRONG, you CAN move past addiction, and start brand new life. It's just pretty hard when you're forced to go to meetings and sit around a bunch of sorrowful (although rightfully) addicts and are forced to fully commit to their mentality, of which the first tenant is "once an addict, always an addict." No offense if you're someone who groups help, but every single person I know who's gone that route has circled back several times. You need a support structure, but a group that literally tells you that you're a junkie every time you walk through the door isn't healthy in my opinion. Positivity and seeing what life could be like after, is what got me here. Hopefully this falls on someone who needs to hear it. You CAN make it out, I promise.
You overcame something beyond difficult than many, including myself, can’t begin to fathom. You fought for a real life, keep it up man, you will inspire others in your journey!
Cool man im feeling exactly as you described feeling about yourself. Glad you got out! Im fighting against myself every day, hating so much addiction.. did you quit cold turkey by yourself? How did it happen? Ive tried for 15 years now ..
@@scotty3223 I think cold turkey is the only way to go since once you have an addiction it is chronic. I can recommend Russell Brand on this topic, he wen't through an abstinence based recovery (guided in a proper facility) and it is a great example and motivator :). Good luck and we will all make it brah!
Its nice to read your fulk story and i think it can hit a person much more than this video did. Alrhough i en joyed it deeply. But your response is ftom the heart and hard work, you made your miles, write your book with the love you express here. You give people hope . What i dont like is the advertisement of hello fresh, thats a real pitty. YOU are the fresh hello to a happy live. Please share because you care..you burn you neighbours candle thats the start of a rimple, it resonates.your the hero off....
Hey, you’ve done an incredible job making some healthy changes and you deserve every ounce of joy this brings you. I just hope that you don’t base your whole self worth on how productive you are because you seem like a really great guy without all that too. People with dopamine shortages often turn to interacting with their phone as a somewhat unhealthy dopamine seeking behavior (FaceTiming a friend can be healthy, doomscrolling twitter almost never is). Working alone is super hard because you don’t get the little dopamine boost from interaction with others. I just hope anyone reading this can have self compassion whenever they are struggling and consider it’s not their fault or an indicator of laziness to struggle with focus
That was great! An honest coverage of your journey. It's my personal experience that when I am doing: 1. Service for the community 2. Practicing meditation 2x a day for ~20min. I don't feel pulled by any distraction. If we look at it deep enough why do we want to be productive at all in the first place? 🤔 Just because we feel great about ourselves? ☺ And when is it that we really feel great about ourselves - it's always when whatever we do makes others lives better. 😇 Our nature is to share and make world a better place. That's why most of the unproductive habits creep in when we are not doing enough for the society at large not just our close ones. So being productive despite of having the phone beside me is a challenge I keep for myself. And whenever I do the above activities I am totally focused😄
Man. I am in the exact same boat. Jumped into the freelance world, working for myself, from home, and really struggled. I’m not out of the woods yet, but this video has inspired me to give it a shot. Thanks for this!
Thank you for this - I had a HUGE realization when you shut off your phone. Actually, I TOTALLY FREAKED OUT. I'm not a scroller but I feel this huge sense of accountability to always be available to my family and friends... my mother (who transitioned to her next life over 25 years ago) insisted I be available all the time (even when working) because she was very ill. I continue to worry constantly about missing an "urgent" call. I've set up my life so I go to the gym from 530-630am because this is the time I know everyone else is still sleeping so I can put my phone away while I'm in the pool because there's a very low likelihood anyone will call. I constantly check to make sure my phone battery is always at 90% or more in case something happens and we lose power because I must have access to my phone. This is creating incredible stress for me and I MUST CHANGE THIS NOW. Thank you for catalyzing this insight!! (And BTW I wrote this on the computer because I'm practicing having my phone turned off for 15 minutes. I feel somewhat ill, but this is a start.)
@goal guys I went through a similar path with extreme difficulties to focus on work. I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and since taking medication, it helped a LOT doing the work I was avoiding, and doing it well. Productivity habits are great, only if they last. If you will still do 6am cold showers etc in 5 years, it’s a success. I strongly advise to consider an ADHD diagnosis, not for the meds, but for you to understand your brain better.
Managing resources and making good returns is not as easy as it seems, there are a lot of things that aren't well taught in schools. The market crisis gave me my first returns, when people stayed away from hard times I made the most of it..many credits goes to Sir Trevor James Beckerman
This is superb information, as a noob it gets quite difficult to handle all of this and staying informed is a major cause, how do you go about this? Do you trade on your own?
Ever since I started working with Trevor James Beckerman I have been monitoring my portfolio performance which is improving from just the past two quarters alone, I have learned why experienced traders make enormous returns from the seemingly unknown market. I must say it's the boldest decision I've taken in my life
The adviser I'm in touch with is ‘Trevor James Beckerman', he works with Commonwealth Financial Network . Mr Trevor is very unique with his strategies and market approach
Really strong editing in this one so props for that. Your car speech is one I do mentally all the time. What gets me through is my present self, acts almost exclusively in my future self's best interest. A good life is a life well lived. Trust that you work in your own best interest and continue to be a good person.
Thank you for being so real. I’m an independent contractor/entrepreneur myself and it seems that ever since 2020 quarantines my same struggles in health and focus/motivation got really really bad. It’s affected my income and my mental health. Your experience gives me hope to stick to it! Thank you for sharing.
I recently started working from home part time and I’ve been struggling. Your car talk was like hearing myself talking! That you so much for sharing your experience in such an honest way 🙏🏻
Started off and on in 2000 work from home. Remember the loss of Face to face and bothered me and most of the people who physically worked there I would never socialize with. Determined if I was sad then do it sad but Git it done. Then Check your work. Embrace solutude. That said solutude is easier when you are older.
13:13 why do you think your Cortisol & Testosterone:Cortisol ratio got worse? Very interesting! I'm also curious about the margin of error of finger pricking blood tests - what's the % of potential variability from actual numbers?
Interesting! I would love to go through these numbers with a medical professional to better understand some of the results. Unfortunately, I don't know enough to speak on the margin of error or the fluctuations of the results.
Find a good Male Hormone Doctor and talk to them about Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT). Your numbers appear to be very low and would explain many of the mood, energy, and muscle problems you are experiencing. Your testosterone could easily be tripled (2.8 to 8.4), and you would still be in the "Normal Range."
Dude, you have no idea how many people feel exactly the way you do/did. I've been implementing many of Huberman's tips, and I have most definitely been feeling the changes for good! He's the fkn rockstar of the well-being of humanity. That being said, your video was simply so relatable, felt so honest and I loved your attention to detail on the editing of the video, as well as the little things you did, that also made me realize of the little things I do on a daily basis (mostly phone addiction related). The less people rely on phones for the social media, and understand them as a tool to improve the daily basis, the better humanity will be. Anyways, thank you for this video, it inspired me, and I will be sharing it to as many people as I feel it can be helpful for!
Echo this, diagnosed last year at 43 with ADHD inattentive and his work habits mirrored mine almost exactly. It was an epiphany getting a name for why I am like I am.
I combined "all the tips" from Andrew Huberman from different videos and noticed a huge difference in my productivity! 1. Wake up every day at the same time and go for a quick 10-20 minute walk. 2. Wait at least 90 minutes before drinking my first coffee. 3. Have 90 minutes of focused work and take a 10-minute break, during which I usually go for a walk. 4. Have a healthy breakfast and eat omega-3-rich foods, such as avocados, nuts, or salmon. 5. Exercise every other day! (Huge effect!) 6. Go to bed at the same time every day. 7. Get enough sleep. 8. Don't overload your brain with excessive dopamine (in my case, RUclips, video games, adult videos, sugar, and fast food). I'm a self-employed programmer, and I can see a huge difference in the number of lines of code I've written, my mental clarity since starting this routine, and even my bank account haha! Thank you @hubermanlab! EDIT: oh and write to do lists before you start doing anything!
Okay, but what are the costs of such time consuming and strict routines? Maybe you are more focussed for your 90 minutes of work, but that does not mean that your life really improves. Maybe by the time you degenerate because of the monotony and living in a cage. It is like people thinking it would be throughout positive if a kid learns two languages instead of only one. Nobody looks at the difficultys and the damage done...
Bro the car talk is legit. Sounds like my whole life until I was diagnosed with ADHD. Like has been clearer and more focused since. Keep up the work and your video is great with the cuts and vo
this is probably my favorite "I've tried Andrew Huberman's morning routine" video yet. Honestly, I might even try the challenge out myself. thank you!!
You sound like me! At 64, I learned that I am ADHD. WHILE I don’t medicate for it, I’m learning to manage it w organization, alarms to keep me on track, and breaks when I go off the rails and then come back to it. So far, better, but not perfect, but my self esteem and confidence has returned. I’m capable. Now I will research what else I can do to help myself b/c I’m worth it!
A banger of a video! I also run my own business while working from home, and have experienced similar emotions recently. This video popped up because I have started researching Hubermans routine, and have already implementer some parts in my life. I think I needed this video today. Thank you for pushing thru, so that you could help me, and many others 🙏🏻
I have actually started doing this routine and stumbled upon the same problem regarding motivation and I'm almost at the place of a car talk. But after this video I think I found the last piece of the puzzle. I'm not addicted to my phone but I like watching random youtube videos too much. I try to use it as education and it actually helps me to keep my english level in check, however I think it serves as a "phone" for me and I need to drastically limit youtube at least until I will be able to get my routine up and running. Thank you for this tip.
Dude, I got so verklempt when you reached your FLOW STATE, twice! I know exactly what you are going through, It's amazing. I could give you a hug bro, you got this!
I really want to thank you for your honesty and being so open about it. I just watched your video while feeling low at my work. really inspiring and I hope I can follow at least some of your steps. might change my life which is twice as low when you have started. Have a good one !
You deserve all the views you get, keeping someone hooked for an entire video takes a ton of hard work these days. I hope your viewer count multiplies by many many more times. All the best man
Man I am a middle aged woman I loved your story I really relate to it. I waste far too much time distracting myself with my iPad or phone. I know I have to change things up, thank you for the inspiration.
Thank you for making this video. I'm also self-employed and have been in such an awful slump lately. Didn't expect your breakdown mid-way in the video and it really hit home for me. I feel like there's some hope now for me.
Man I feel this! I have adhd and low test and have struggled a lot with it I’m much better now that I’m medicated and supplementing test, I would recommend following up on your test levels maybe do a video with Derek from more plates more dates and his company marek!
Your car talk at 8:08 was spot on for me. Im turning 35 next month and i felt i went nowhere the last ten years. I have a good job making 90k a year but i always thought i was ment for more but im stuck in a wheel that just keeps going around and around. And now i have a 2 year old. And i see what my parents are going thru now at 60 and i cant stop thinking, is this my life? Am i going to end up like my parents? Am i really not who i want and thought i was going to be? Is there anything else out there for me?
Hi man! Great work working on yourself, really motivational. An idea: Make a video like this every once in a while in order to document how you got over low energy periods or what kind of obstacles you encounter. I feel like this kind of routine fades out fast for some people, and it would be nice to see some refreshment strategies
Hey folks! A lot of y'all commented on my focus challenges and mentioned ADHD...so I made a video where I get tested: ruclips.net/video/oW-SqCXIeHE/видео.htmlsi=H5NwEeiO5Ibofn7r
I also made a follow up video focused solely on improving my T levels: ruclips.net/video/R3SYyq2HMOc/видео.html&ab_channel=GoalGuys
Thanks for watching y'all!
You might feel better too increasing your ferritin levels to 100 and D to 80 or 100.
Monks appreciated
Appreciate you're real.
Spiritual master, chinese doctors say critical cold shower head, reduces stroke , opens to god
We are raw, vegan,80%liquidairians,but that hello fresh helps stressed make better changes. Great you are helping others.
Thank you for sharing you experience-- focus is everything indeed, is hard and yet as you proved, is attainable for meaningful stretches on a daily basis.
I do think it gets "easier" (or the process of re-focus more familiar and facile) over time.
Best Wishes,
Andrew
Don’t know if you expected to make this much of an impact on peoples lives. But it’s awesome to see it. Thanks so much for your free information. 👍🏼
what’s up andrew huberman
Appreciate the comment Andrew! Thanks for all the work you do in sharing information in a way that is both understandable and actionable. Hope you and Costello are well! Cheers!
@hubermanlab this is amazing!
I would try to apply this morning routine even only for Andrew comment ;)
That little talk in the car was so real. So relatable.
Frrrr
I felt this so much ❤
100 percent facts 😢
i am diagnosed with self distraction and i have adhd and I just find it so hard to stay focused. It's aufull feeling that I'm going to be like this for the rest of my life..
This video is so relatable, I was even going to cry in that part
But it’s just a thought and you believe in yourself more.
I love the irony that I'm watching this instead of doing my History assignment
im watching this while in at work
I'm watching this while i should be sending a work related letter !!!!!
@@eugeniolol
''I need to throw my phone away''
(recording himself with cameras all around)
that's the irony
@@powerpowerpower a camera is different than a phone. it's not giving you constant notifications, access to the entire world, and a million tempting apps. Yes you can distract yourself with a camera, but dont pretend like it's even comparable to a phone in that regard lol
I'm watching it on my computer and reading comments ... so even if I get rid of my phone, I'll still have distraction LOL
Huberman helped change my life, dude. I went from a suicidal, depressed alcoholic in a loveless marriage during the pandemic to an unrecognizable, happy, sober divorced dad. I don't recall being this content since I was a child. Great video!!
Great job my man! I wish you the best from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. We have one life to live. Let’s make the most of it!
What changes did you make to be an unrecognizable you? I also love Dr Huberman so much and would love to know your answer!
Cheers to your great job!!
Sad you didn't save your marriage though
@@andreselem3654 it was. 21 years together. It is what it is. You can’t make people’s decisions for them, you can only control how you react.
@andreselem3654 naw bud sorry but the marriage could have been one of the factors causing the issues originally.
This is the first time I’ve heard a RUclipsr admit to themselves the harsh reality of being self-employed. Thank you, I appreciate you being real with it.
I felt that moment in the car so hard. Literally in the same situation with my podcast that burnt me out and now I'm dealing with trauma from not living up to my own expectations and dreams. It's soul crushing and something I'm still learning to cope with and fight back from. Crazy.
Wait until you find out that there’s a self-employment tax on top of state and federal. During Obama, he had it up to 25%
The ‘hustle’ economy is utter bullshit.
@@NV-gv7fo Had what up to 25%? Self employment tax is FICA (Medicare and Social Security) and it's long been about 15%. People working for someone else split it half and half with their employer, roughly. People working for themselves pay the whole thing. That was true under Obama, Trump, and Biden.
@@jamesbroderick5311you’re suffering trauma because you tried to do something with a wildly low percentage of success?
You don’t know what the word trauma means. Go visit a veterans hospital sometime. Maybe it’ll stop you from portraying your struggle as anything significant
8:07 - 9:30 I've never heard someone so exactly describe the grief inside me that no one around me has understood when I try to explain it. Thank you ... I needed that.
No kidding. I felt like I was listening to my own thoughts. I'm currently going through those exact emotions.
Us bro us. May be the problem is work from "home" itself.
I have bad habits of surfing the internet. I'm ready to sacrifice internet. But without internet, I can't work. I work as a content writer.
So good to hear that I'm also not alone in that. It's such a burden to carry to feel like that unproductive version of myself is who I'm destined to be. Thank you for sharing.
literally the same for me!
News: I'm fired today with this attitude.
1. Write down the time you wake up
2. 10-15min walk
3. Drink saltwater
4. Drink athletic green
5. 90min work
6. Physical exercise
7. Cold shower
8. Have breakfast/brunch/lunch at around 11am
Edit: don't forget to leave your phone behind, this is the key to success in this routine. Thanks for noticing! And personally, I prefer to write down the goals right after noting the time I wake up, that helps me redefine and reaffirm my visions for the future.
Don't forget skipping breakfast
If I only do 90 mins of real work before noon, and step out of the office to go exercise for an hour, my boss would be like: WTF? Get back to your desk!!
Not sure if we didn't watch the same video, but Put down the phone, was the key.
how long is cold shower ?
@@noahchicoine4780 thanks for pointing out, I've updated it
No one talks about the self-discipline required to be the selfpreneur or freelancer. This is incredibly relatable. Know you’re not alone. I’ve tested the 45min work, 15min break idea which has helped. I “only” have to do 45 mins at a time and this feels more achievable. Thought it was worth a share to try!
Thanks for sharing
I thk for ppl who’ve tried the same routine but still feels like hard to focus like our friend said in this video:
TRY *MEDITATION* …. *it’s that hard-proof method used by Tom Brady + Lebron James both huge successfully!!
Stop making up words. An entrepreneur is self motivating and works for themselves.
15 минут работы и 5 минут отдыха тоже эффективно
Totally agree. I have ran my own businesses for twenty years now and the main obstacle has always been myself. Just because a person is creative and able to think of great ideas doesn't mean we're the best people at carrying out all tasks related to getting to the goal. From studying my degree this seemed to me to be the biggest difference between Leadership and Management. Ideas people and people who handle the tasks given to them to achieve the idea- very rare do you find both abilities in the same person. I know I don't excel in both areas.
It felt like i was watching myself for 14 minutes straight, and that self talk at 08:10 that really hit hard. 8 years and still struggling with the same issue leaving so much potential on the table. thank you so much for this video.
Yeah I'm right there with you. Ever since working from home I have STRUGGLED! This hit hard
YES! It brought tears to my eyes. Knowing I am not alone in this gives me hope. Thank you!
Same!
That's ADHD lol
Executive dysfunction
same here
Really appreciated the cinematography! All the little time lapse touches and contrasts between the old and the new worked really well to communicate your points!
I think it's in atomic habits, the idea of, "When you have bad habits, time is your enemy; but with good habits, time is your ally." This new routine seems like it will continue to pay compound interest in your life. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much!!
i hope that day 30 wasnt your final day and that you are continuing this routine, you seem so happy and satisfied. you have truly inspired me. thank you.
Honestly? This is one of the most relatable, funny, light mood and inspiring video I've watched this week. Thanks for being so open and humble. I'm happy for your and will give this a try myself! Can't thank you enough! Keep going! Cheers ✌🏻🙌🏻
Wow, thank you so much!
Yes, couldn't sum it up any better. Definitely funny and inspiring! Thanks a lot for sharing!🙃
You need to find some better videos.
Cam, I really appreciate how raw and honest you were in the car talk. I can relate so much.
8:00 - 9:48 Man I have NEVER in my 7 years of struggling heard someone explain EXACTLY what I am going through. I thought I was broken somehow, but fixable. I feel really stupid as you finally revealed the answer; my relationship with my phone is toxic.
At the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!
Yea, so is mine. That part hit me too. Hahaha not even why I was watching the vid. As glad for it though
And this applies to all of us no matter whether you're young or older, I'm 62, cause we all have so much unfinished business in life.
Brother, you have a huge heart and an immense amount of determination. I too was unable to show up in my life at full capacity since my dad passed in 2012. I ended up with colitis amongst other extreme dis ease within my body. Aug 12 2023 I chose to do a 45 day fast, that I created for myself, of all misalignments in my life that were keeping me from operating out of my highest form. During thisnfast I also feasted for 45 days on all alignments. I used wisdom that I have gained from life, teachers and coaches that I have had the pleasure of receiving thought out my life. Doing this for myself brought so much energy and clarity and drive to serve and do my good works.
Thank you for doing this for yourself, for having self worth and for being vulnerable. These traits create unconditional love within our hearts. Look at all the love and opportunity for others to build their faith in themselves. Thank you again for sharing your journey!
Your speech at 8:10, "Maybe I'm not the person I thought I was. I'm leaving so much potential on the table" really resonated with me. I'm gonna give this morning routine a try because I seriously need a jolt. Thanks for your videos.
that sounds like adhd
That IS ADHD FFS. Please, OP, read this comment.
@@ttulliterally came here to say that. I experienced all the same issues and then I was diagnosed with ADHD and it explains everything
@@ashleysmith4470 Hopefully he reads this.
@@ashleysmith4470 did something helped you after you got the diagnosis? I know that I have adhd for 14 years but didnt find help so far.
People don't notice this . But much efforts the goal guys do on editing and scripting is top notch . Really makes me feel the video is like a well structured with being informative and helpful to the general audience and also the topics they touch on doing is just genius like taking on the trend and seeing if it actually works out or not .
The 'car talk' truly resonated with me on a deep level.
1. It made me realize that the challenges I face are not unique to me alone. It's reassuring to know that others have experienced similar setbacks and obstacles along their journey.
2. This kind of self-realization is a powerful reminder that we all have the capacity to reflect upon ourselves during moments of demotivation. By looking inward and examining our own actions, attitudes, and perspectives, we hold the key to making meaningful changes in our lives. It empowers us to take responsibility for our circumstances and actively seek solutions, rather than succumbing to a sense of helplessness.
agreed
Did you guys check out book called The 21 Former Doctor Secrets Rachel Morgan. Honestly its so reavealing
@@lennart4686 Man I heard about this book also from Anfrew Huberman videos, there is women that recommended me this book and asked me to share it. It was good for me

@@lennart4686 I just checked her bio, definitely a scam. "I’m Dr. Rachel Morgan, a former general medicine practitioner with years of experience in the healthcare industry"....... basically she was an intern for half a day and is now an expert after serving unspecified "years" in the industry. 😂
@@lennart4686 Definitely a scam. Book got published on Amazon UK on 14 July 2024. This fake account "FinnMorgan2111" got created 24 jul 2024.

Definitely not buying this book.
@@lennart4686 For sure! I keep seeing those book recommendations in comments of so many videos lol
Dude. Everything about this video, from the story arc to cinematography, the editing, all of it was so so good. One of the best RUclips videos I’ve seen. Bonus points for the content cuz I’m a huberman boi myself. You took it to a new extreme so I’m inspired to apply these ideas with more rigor in my own life. Cheers 🎉
I Agreeee!! Thank you so much :)
that's what it is, yes. it's the story arc that is more important then the reality.
And can we also talk about the fact that this is why a "9 to 5" (a dirty word on the internet, I know) can be so vital for many people? It not only forces you to learn routine, it forces you to learn that doing hard things pays off. Not everyone's just automatically built to self-start and be a natural entrepreneur, and that's okay. There is nothing wrong with spending your 20s in a good, rewarding 9 to 5 to learn the tools to become professionally independent in your 30s. It's not degrading or failure.
Most 9-5s are soul crushing dead end jobs though lol
@@TheBloofyx😢😹
Increasingly lost 20-something year-old here. Submitting to a 9 - 5 (even loosely) has been gradually changing my life for these exact reasons, both for work and study. I appreciate you taking the time to leave this comment.
I can relate. There’s people like me who thrive with interacting with people, being on a team, and getting out of the house. I tried the solopreneur route for over a year (doing something I enjoyed), but burned out. I discovered how important it is for me to do things, especially work, with others.
@@TheBloofyx Life is a dead end. You need to learn to enjoy those soul crushing moments, as what you are sold as ideal financially independent lifestyle is a lie. Enjoy the shitty moments, as life only gets worse no matter what you do. Old age guarantees it.
Of all the videos relating to sleep and morning routines, this is the very best that I have seen. I related shockingly well to your "car talk," in that I realized that I've felt the very same thing about myself for several years now: maybe I'm just not the person I thought I was. For 6+ years, I have been wondering what the heck I'm doing - and, following 2020, that feeling definitely became exacerbated. I'm now asking myself if it's because of my horrible routine(s) that I've been doubting myself and feeling unsure of what my goals and career interests even are. Maybe I AM the kind of person who wants to and can do meaningful work; maybe I am a morning person; maybe I would be interested in 'career A' if I were more focused in general.
I honestly didn't think that a RUclips video would ever make me feel this way, so I'm so thankful I clicked on this video at 3am. I appreciate just how genuine and sincere your message and efforts are. This could be the late night fumes talking - but I feel inspired to tackle a similar routine, because I'm just blown away with what this one has done for you. Thank you very much for sharing this personal journey - and in such a beautifully filmed and edited video, to boot!
It's my first time stumbling upon one of your videos. I am about 1/3 through watching this. WOW OMG. The quality of this video, camera work, the editing, the humor. everything, all that, blows my mind. Love it. You and your brother are so likeable.
Wow, thank you so much!
Bro, this video was so more real than I was expecting. Thank you for being vulnerable.
Can totally relate. I’m not a morning person and I’ve been self employed for a decade. Walks in the morning, Ac vinegar, water and electrolytes first thing have been a game changer. I find when I work at my local coffee shop for a few hours I get more done than the same amount of time at home. The change of location, the white noise of people around me, and an americano makes a huge difference in my ability to focus. I also notice an improvement in focus working on my balcony in nice weather.
That car talk summed up my last two years. I'm 23 y.o., I work from home since the beggining of the pandemic and still feel like I could go higher and do better.
Seriously thinking about giving this routine a try and see if I can see any improvments!
Great video, and cheers from Portugal!
I’m 23 work from home and feel just like u!
Would highly recommend this routine! Good luck with everything!
Pedro, have you started? If so, how is it going? If you haven't started, why not? Consider this a prod (from a stranger, I know, but if it gets you to try, so be it).
what kind of work do you do from home?
I feel similarly; school burnt me out, and then the pandemic hit and allowed me to sink deep into a rut. I managed to worsen my procrastination habit which I picked up in college, and my sleep suffered as well. I quickly began feeling as though I no longer had the capacity / strength / energy to do any exceptionally meaningful work. That said, my hope is that I can utilize some of what I learned from this video and improve my self-discipline and even my self-esteem. So far, this is perhaps the most genuine and sincere of this type of video that I have found. The "car talk" hit me right in the face, because it's exactly how I've been feeling about myself. I hope I can prove to myself that I can do so much more than for which I'm barely giving myself credit. I'm not sure about the cold showers and the saltwater... but, I'm certainly willing to try everything else suggested.
I felt that talk in the car, you’re not the only one that feels that way. I totally understand how you feel. But thanks for putting this video out there because it definitely impacted my own journey of becoming the best version of myself self! Thank you!
I really related to this. I just wanted to thank you for making this video. I’m a 54 year old woman who has never taken the time to comment on a video until now. Sending this to my kids as well. Many thanks and keep up the good work. You are motivating me!
This is genuinely one of the most wholesome, relatable videos on the Huberman morning protocol. Thank you for sticking it out and documenting it!
Wow, I teared up when you had that moment in the car. I’ve been feeling the same way about my business too. 6.5 years in… so relatable. Thank you for sharing, very excited to start trying this!
Hello.
My name is Carlos Hernandez from Aguascalientes Mexico. You can't imagine how much I loved your video, I felt like you were describing me at the time you were going through those bad times but the attitude, the energy, the music, the video in general was excellent. congratulations and keep it up. Thank you for sharing that journey. Muy chingon.
The car talk was so relatable. I'm trying to get somewhere in my life from past 3 years are I'm failing miserably. I hope this routine helps me to get where I imagine myself. A big thanks to you! I was feeling very low, seeing you in the same situation as me and then improving is giving me so much motivation also i am feeling a bit better. THANK YOU🥺🥺
me too, for the last 5 years. I though I was still on depression although a felt completely cured. One day I met an astrologer and explained to me that due to some combination of signs I keep loosing my goals and don't have a sense of time😄 (that's also what my mother used to tell me!). I am the queen of procrastination 👸The funny thing is that even in that situation what I can do to help myself is to keep a routine and stick to it! With astrology at least is way less the guilty feelings you have. You stop judging yrself and also stop incriminate yr parents that they are responsible for what is happening to you (that's what we usually do😊)!!
I very much wished I had seen a video like this when I was still self-employed and going through the exact same struggle. I've now submitted to the 9-5 and have very mixed feelings about that.
As someone who has started this routine for about a month now. The lack of motivation was making me crazy. This helps me so much to understand it's normal and the thing I need to do right now. Thank you so much for this
Did it help you?
How is it going?
Update please 🙏
@@Pearl-_Perla hie I'm sorry I wrote a hugeee update but I think it didn't post or got deleted😭 if it doesn't show up I'll write it again soon 🤍
Man you have me in tears and smiling at the same time! This is so relatable. My problem is that it´s not my phone that is distracting me, but the access to Internet (RUclips) on my computer. It is so tempting to go for a a quick dopamine hit instead of focusing and getting shit done! I´m giving this morning routine a try!!
That was a really good video! Thank you specifically for staying open about your moment of vulnerability... Seeing you hone in on figuring out WHY and asking the relavant questions and tweaking the routine, or using your experience to grow is SUCH a good and needed contrast to the 'giving up' mentality that permeates our culture nowadays.
Thank you!
Bro, I started to cry when you started talking about fighting productivity and thinking this is who you are. Dang man! I say this as an Army Combat Veteran, you made me think hard about myself. I cant thank you enough! But Thank you!
1- wake up around 06:30 am
2- walk, get sunlight in your eyes
3- no caffeine for 90 mins after waking up
4- drink water with sea salt
5- fast until 11:00 am
6- 90 mins of cognitive work
7- physical exercise for an hour (i prefer stretching and light work since we need energy for college or work)
8- cold shower (begginers don't start with freezing water, work it up)
"Get sunlight in your eyes at 6:30AM"

Man, that moment of self-reflection in the car felt like I was looking in the mirror. Wanting so badly to accomplish more, making radical lifestyle changes, and still not being able to force your brain to comply.
Take this with a grain of salt because the root of why people function the way they do varies, but earlier this year I was diagnosed with ADHD at the ripe age of 33. Still dialing in the right medication, working to build healthy habits in therapy, and undoing a lifetime of bad coping mechanisms, but I can’t stress enough how life-changing that diagnosis has been.
Appreciate the vulnerability in the video, my dude, and hope the lifestyle changes stick.
I hate working by myself too. There is no accountability so it’s so easy to get distracted and unproductive. I felt that.
I have to say that I haven't seen nor found yet anyone talking about the fact that your video edition was on point .. making it look like an actual short movie .. the storyline, the shots and music .. nicely done ✔️ 👏
Probably an outcome of the routine! :D
01:19 Huberman's routine includes early wake-up, sunlight exposure, delayed caffeine, cognitive workout, exercise, and cold exposure.
03:37 Struggles with productivity, distractions, and procrastination persist throughout the challenge.
08:49 Constant phone use hampers focus during work sessions.
12:43 After the challenge, the RUclipsr sees improved energy, mood, and productivity, planning to maintain some routine practices.
Cool cool cool
6am wake up, is not early. 4 or 4:30 is early
I wake up before I go to sleep
Thank you!

You are a master at portraying a MASTERFUL story man
I was glued the entire time.
Also appreciate how the sponsor reel is at the end
Well done, and thank you for this
Thank you!!
Bro, first of all, I want to acknowledge you for allowing yourself to appear vulnerable, almost to tears in the car, to the rest of us. That is pure authenticity and from one man to another, this shows true masculinity. Secondly, thank you for inspiring me and being a role model. Nothing comes easy and nothing is given to us until we put in the hard work and then get the satisfaction of having accomplished goals which is so rewarding on a personal level.
Great experimental design and data tracking. I also relate to your sentiments about self-motivating and the phone. Here's the version I will try to balance the sentiment with having two small children (albeit with the benefit of daycare).
Modified Routine:
- 6:30 Wake, record time, get dressed, change baby's diaper, and dress him for the day
- 6:45 15 min walk outside with the baby in a stroller
- 7:00 Saltwater drink, breakfast for kids, pack lunches
- 7:45 Drop kids off at daycare/school
- 8:15 90-minute work block, drink more water :-)
- 9:45 Exercise, drink more water
- 10:45 Cold shower
- 11:00 Early lunch
Phone:
Because I need to keep the phone on for daycare/school emergencies, I'll set the phone to "Do not disturb" with overrides for my partner, daycare, school, and any other double calls. However, the phone will be in my baby's room, and I'll take the baby monitor to my office. That way, I can hear important calls but must work much harder to go check my phone.
Lmm🎉 nnm
This made me emotional... I absolutely love it when people better themselves 🎉
Well done!
Your car chat was so relatable... ADHD makes it especially difficult to focus. Healthy habits and routines is a must for ADHD.
ADHD is a myth
@@nihaalsandim9986 Please enlighten me with some evidence?
He have ADHD? Bcs i'm like him
Yes this! i was like, he would end up taking adderall or something. :3 luckily no. becomes so annoying that even though i can do it, i wont coz i dont wanna and every element of body is saying no, just coz i dont like it in that moment.
@@RAGHAV4882 can i take adderall without a prescription?
Paused at 9 minutes to drop in and say thank you for this video. Your authenticity is awesome. I feel like someone went into my brain and made a video about it. Can't remember the last time I commented on a video, but this is expertly crafted, creative, and impactful.
For real! I echo the sentiment! The authenticity was real! I felt it because it is me saying and feeling that. I can't thank you enough for taking on this challenge. Power on!
100% agree with this comment. He was putting words to exactly the way I feel.
It was moving enough that I was encouraged to start trying the routine myself! Day 1 is done and it feels good. We'll see about tomorrow, though 😂
That car talk was real … that’s the day I’ve been growing my beard and put my self through all the hardships to grow to grow and be a proud true MAN … PAIN DOESNT STOP A MANN
When I got a dog, I had to take him out for his little puppy walks first thing in the morning, and that made me feel great right away. The morning walk before anything else is key. When he got older I used to sometimes get up before the sun on weekends, take an hour hike before anything else with him. When I got home I would wake the family, and make breakfast. Those were the best days ever. So much energy, and I felt like I got shit done.
Would be interesting to see a follow-up to this. It's easy to commit to something for 30 days because there's an "endpoint", but are you still keeping up with the routine even though there's a lot less accountability (i.e. you're not doing it for a 'project' anymore) ?
The usual time for forming a habbit is around 90 days, 3 months. So if you are able to stick with a routine for that long probably it stays. Of course that doesn't mean you can't fall back, but isn't a "chore" anymore.
Once you've done something and set up a routine for like a month, it becomes sencond nature and your body wants to do it
As much as I love to see his positive attitude after doing all that, reviewing his blood work he said everything was better, but it is not. He doesn't read the paper right because he does not understand the numbers (eg. lower number does not automatically mean better). Seeing his testosterone went up, the first column is the result, but that means, reading the results, a lot of the things got worse. HDL that is the good kind of cholesterol is the same, while LDL (bad) got higher and the total cholesterol is higher as well (eating habits). His morning cortisol also skyrocketed, which means his morning stress increased a lot (still in the norm, but way higher), that can cause a lot of issues if it increases more (think of anxiety for example). His insulin also went a bit up but negligible amount so far (still too high though). TSH dropped too, but still in the norm unless it continues to drop... So yes, the testosterone improved a lot, and that's great. But it also seems like this put a lot of stress on his body. I would honestly try other methods to increase the TST... Granted of course the bloodwork is influenced by many things he did not specify or even thought about, so I would just keep monitoring and see if it continues to worsen or not. All and all, the amount of stress is not worth it imho, there are more not as drastic ways to increase tst. I am not saying Huberman's routine is bad, but everyone is different and not everything will sit well with you. I know that cold showers/plunges literally skyrocket my stress for the rest of the day, so they are a huge no no for me for example.
Huberman’s routine sounds harder than it is. He built this routine to help increase dopamine, therefore it has built a built in motivation mechanism. For me the key part was the early morning light exposure. And you begin to somehow crave and dread the cold showers at the same time.
@@rybosaur6860I believe Huberman has addressed the increase in morning cortisol in one of his podcasts as a positive outcome - cortisol is naturally meant to rise in the morning as it helps get you up. You want higher values in the morning. If your cortisol is low in the morning it’s not desirable.
I so FEEL THIS! Thanks for the car chat! I needed to hear that. My ADHD makes it hard to be productive.
Thank you soooo much for sharing your experience! Your vulnerability and transparency with your struggles and being scared that you're leaving potential on the table really hit me. I'm sooo freaking happy for you and you've inspired me! ✨

thx king!
Real onee 👏
Thank you very much for showing the vulnerable moment in the car! (around minute 9) I have felt this way many times, it is hard to work "only" for ourselves. Thanks for being so open!
I love this vulnerability! It's so incredible to see a man be open and vulnerable like in the car, with the fears and challenges of this process. Beautiful. I feel you brother! Progress and breaking old patterns is tough work and scary as hell, but so dang essential. Stoked for you my man! Keep it up!
Can you please post a one year update? An honest review on if you're still doing this routine and on what worked/what didn't, biggest speed bumps/hurdles, what you wished you kept doing, what you're glad that you're still doing etc. If you've fallen off the bandwagon, document yourself getting back onto a routine that worked for you. As humans, we all stumble so this would probably be an encouraging video for many, many people to watch.
!!!!!
Man, i felt this to my very core.
I go through these waves all the time.
You've just inspired me to give this routine a go for 30days!
I'm so proud of you dude- your potential is limitless!
so what happened?
The talk in the car had me in shambles. I've had that exact same convo with myself amd nothing seems to help. Thank you for this video and being vulnerable!
Daily Meditation and limiting phone use helped me overcome the focus aspect in nearly every aspect of my life. Meditation is really just the act of building focus, where you're focusing on mindfulness and awareness, so you're not on autopilot as it were.
I'd love to see what your experience is like after trying it for 20 mins a day over 4 weeks.
Nevertheless, great to see you smash through that plateau!
I never actually comment on YT videos but this one was amazing. Just discovered the video after watching HubermanLab videos, it is honnestly one of the best videos I have seen.
The experience is amazing and your storytelling/filmmaking skills are awesome too, I literally got goose bumps at the end of the video and I thank you a lot for that. I will definitely be checking more of your videos !
I used to drink 10 tall cans of beer a day for years. But after I turned 27 I decided to try ending my showers with 3 minutes of showering in cold water and stop drinking cold turkey. I feel like a super hero. I finally feel in control. Started a 6 week workout program and have been making sure to set at least 2 goals for the next day and completing them. It's crazy how effective, willingly putting yourself through something struggling is in improving your overall mental health and sense of determination for the day. Master roshi always said: " one must eat, sleep, play and learn something every day" and he was right. 💪🏻
It was hard to hear your struggles man, that's incredibly rough. When you said you are fighting against something, I really relate. For me it was caused by ADHD.
Other things can cause executive function issues and difficulty with productivity too. But that's what it was for me, and diagnosis changed my life.
I also had to immediately think of my experience with ADHD... I know there are many other reasons for executive disfunction but it definitely felt similar to a lot of my struggles.
My thoughts exactly. Working from home alone is suuuuuper hard for me. Seems like a solution would be a change in work somewhat
Same! Watching this, felt so close to home. I left my 11 year teaching career due to burnout, and started working for myself and it’s been SUCH a challenge to motivate myself. Not just for work but even for all the things I usually enjoy.
I completely relate. All of it.
I was going to say the same
Man, the "not the person I thought I was" part REALLY hit home. Just imagine that feeling, except being caused by a decade of hardcore addiction and even after losing 29 personal friends since high school (our generation has lost more to opiates in single years than the entirety of the Vietnam conflict) you still can't break it, because it is quite literally your brain & body SCREAMING at you to get what it needs to function normally. Doesn't matter how much you hate it, doesn't matter that you were the one kid out of all your friends that was all about doing everything all natural and this is totally against every fiber in your being, not even really liking alcohol growing up. Doesn't matter your background or family history at all either. Just a few injuries in the group of friends later, EVERYONE is hooked before they even know what withdrawals really are. You start to hate your SELF, start to think that it's over with you f*cked up, you'll never be the same, you may as well end it because this is who you are now. That was 4 years ago when I felt like that, now? I'm teaching guitar & music production full time, living out my dream & passion with ZERO want for an escape like before. Playing in a few different bands/projects, and gaining more & more students every week. No matter what they tell you (be it NA, AA, your family, society, whoever) they're WRONG, you CAN move past addiction, and start brand new life. It's just pretty hard when you're forced to go to meetings and sit around a bunch of sorrowful (although rightfully) addicts and are forced to fully commit to their mentality, of which the first tenant is "once an addict, always an addict." No offense if you're someone who groups help, but every single person I know who's gone that route has circled back several times. You need a support structure, but a group that literally tells you that you're a junkie every time you walk through the door isn't healthy in my opinion. Positivity and seeing what life could be like after, is what got me here. Hopefully this falls on someone who needs to hear it. You CAN make it out, I promise.
You overcame something beyond difficult than many, including myself, can’t begin to fathom. You fought for a real life, keep it up man, you will inspire others in your journey!
Cool man im feeling exactly as you described feeling about yourself. Glad you got out! Im fighting against myself every day, hating so much addiction.. did you quit cold turkey by yourself? How did it happen? Ive tried for 15 years now ..
@@scotty3223 I think cold turkey is the only way to go since once you have an addiction it is chronic. I can recommend Russell Brand on this topic, he wen't through an abstinence based recovery (guided in a proper facility) and it is a great example and motivator :).
Good luck and we will all make it brah!
Relax ma'am. No need to pump up your own tyres.
Its nice to read your fulk story and i think it can hit a person much more than this video did. Alrhough i en joyed it deeply. But your response is ftom the heart and hard work, you made your miles, write your book with the love you express here. You give people hope . What i dont like is the advertisement of hello fresh, thats a real pitty. YOU are the fresh hello to a happy live. Please share because you care..you burn you neighbours candle thats the start of a rimple, it resonates.your the hero off....
Hey, you’ve done an incredible job making some healthy changes and you deserve every ounce of joy this brings you. I just hope that you don’t base your whole self worth on how productive you are because you seem like a really great guy without all that too.
People with dopamine shortages often turn to interacting with their phone as a somewhat unhealthy dopamine seeking behavior (FaceTiming a friend can be healthy, doomscrolling twitter almost never is). Working alone is super hard because you don’t get the little dopamine boost from interaction with others.
I just hope anyone reading this can have self compassion whenever they are struggling and consider it’s not their fault or an indicator of laziness to struggle with focus
That was great! An honest coverage of your journey. It's my personal experience that when I am doing:
1. Service for the community
2. Practicing meditation 2x a day for ~20min.
I don't feel pulled by any distraction.
If we look at it deep enough why do we want to be productive at all in the first place? 🤔
Just because we feel great about ourselves? ☺
And when is it that we really feel great about ourselves - it's always when whatever we do makes others lives better. 😇
Our nature is to share and make world a better place. That's why most of the unproductive habits creep in when we are not doing enough for the society at large not just our close ones.
So being productive despite of having the phone beside me is a challenge I keep for myself. And whenever I do the above activities I am totally focused😄
Man. I am in the exact same boat. Jumped into the freelance world, working for myself, from home, and really struggled. I’m not out of the woods yet, but this video has inspired me to give it a shot. Thanks for this!
Thank you for this - I had a HUGE realization when you shut off your phone. Actually, I TOTALLY FREAKED OUT. I'm not a scroller but I feel this huge sense of accountability to always be available to my family and friends... my mother (who transitioned to her next life over 25 years ago) insisted I be available all the time (even when working) because she was very ill. I continue to worry constantly about missing an "urgent" call. I've set up my life so I go to the gym from 530-630am because this is the time I know everyone else is still sleeping so I can put my phone away while I'm in the pool because there's a very low likelihood anyone will call. I constantly check to make sure my phone battery is always at 90% or more in case something happens and we lose power because I must have access to my phone. This is creating incredible stress for me and I MUST CHANGE THIS NOW. Thank you for catalyzing this insight!! (And BTW I wrote this on the computer because I'm practicing having my phone turned off for 15 minutes. I feel somewhat ill, but this is a start.)
I'm always telling people, get rid of your smart phone, you'll be a lot happier.
@goal guys I went through a similar path with extreme difficulties to focus on work. I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and since taking medication, it helped a LOT doing the work I was avoiding, and doing it well. Productivity habits are great, only if they last. If you will still do 6am cold showers etc in 5 years, it’s a success. I strongly advise to consider an ADHD diagnosis, not for the meds, but for you to understand your brain better.
I came here to see if anyone mentioned ADHD after what his brother/boss said his day / habits were like!

Really strong editing in this one so props for that. Your car speech is one I do mentally all the time. What gets me through is my present self, acts almost exclusively in my future self's best interest. A good life is a life well lived. Trust that you work in your own best interest and continue to be a good person.
He did difficult thing without using phone great focused on work for future you motivated me thank youuu❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for being so real. I’m an independent contractor/entrepreneur myself and it seems that ever since 2020 quarantines my same struggles in health and focus/motivation got really really bad. It’s affected my income and my mental health. Your experience gives me hope to stick to it! Thank you for sharing.
I recently started working from home part time and I’ve been struggling. Your car talk was like hearing myself talking! That you so much for sharing your experience in such an honest way 🙏🏻
Started off and on in 2000 work from home.
Remember the loss of Face to face and bothered me and most of the people who physically worked there I would never socialize with.
Determined if I was sad then do it sad but Git it done. Then Check your work.
Embrace solutude. That said solutude is easier when you are older.
13:13 why do you think your Cortisol & Testosterone:Cortisol ratio got worse? Very interesting! I'm also curious about the margin of error of finger pricking blood tests - what's the % of potential variability from actual numbers?
Interesting! I would love to go through these numbers with a medical professional to better understand some of the results. Unfortunately, I don't know enough to speak on the margin of error or the fluctuations of the results.
Find a good Male Hormone Doctor and talk to them about Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT). Your numbers appear to be very low and would explain many of the mood, energy, and muscle problems you are experiencing. Your testosterone could easily be tripled (2.8 to 8.4), and you would still be in the "Normal Range."
Thank you for sharing you experience, so sweet and honest!
Dude, you have no idea how many people feel exactly the way you do/did. I've been implementing many of Huberman's tips, and I have most definitely been feeling the changes for good! He's the fkn rockstar of the well-being of humanity. That being said, your video was simply so relatable, felt so honest and I loved your attention to detail on the editing of the video, as well as the little things you did, that also made me realize of the little things I do on a daily basis (mostly phone addiction related). The less people rely on phones for the social media, and understand them as a tool to improve the daily basis, the better humanity will be. Anyways, thank you for this video, it inspired me, and I will be sharing it to as many people as I feel it can be helpful for!
Have you ever been tested for ADHD? Because I was exactly like you and I got a diagnosis at 39. Life completely changed after I started medication.
the whole video the only thing i could think was "u got adhd bro". Life changer when you figure that part out
@@loganhunt8029 he doesnt have adhd he was addicted to his phone
I was thinking this! He seems just like me pre-diagnosis
Echo this, diagnosed last year at 43 with ADHD inattentive and his work habits mirrored mine almost exactly. It was an epiphany getting a name for why I am like I am.
@@lukebutler4727 ya ok buddy
That car talk! I did not expect to cry 😢 I can relate ❤ Your vulnerability is inspiring because of your persistence! Keep it up
I started audio Journaling every morning 2 weeks ago, and I have to say that it is great. Just being able to get it all out and move foward is amazing
I combined "all the tips" from Andrew Huberman from different videos and noticed a huge difference in my productivity!
1. Wake up every day at the same time and go for a quick 10-20 minute walk.
2. Wait at least 90 minutes before drinking my first coffee.
3. Have 90 minutes of focused work and take a 10-minute break, during which I usually go for a walk.
4. Have a healthy breakfast and eat omega-3-rich foods, such as avocados, nuts, or salmon.
5. Exercise every other day! (Huge effect!)
6. Go to bed at the same time every day.
7. Get enough sleep.
8. Don't overload your brain with excessive dopamine (in my case, RUclips, video games, adult videos, sugar, and fast food).
I'm a self-employed programmer, and I can see a huge difference in the number of lines of code I've written, my mental clarity since starting this routine, and even my bank account haha! Thank you @hubermanlab!
EDIT: oh and write to do lists before you start doing anything!
Okay, but what are the costs of such time consuming and strict routines? Maybe you are more focussed for your 90 minutes of work, but that does not mean that your life really improves. Maybe by the time you degenerate because of the monotony and living in a cage.
It is like people thinking it would be throughout positive if a kid learns two languages instead of only one. Nobody looks at the difficultys and the damage done...
Bro the car talk is legit. Sounds like my whole life until I was diagnosed with ADHD. Like has been clearer and more focused since. Keep up the work and your video is great with the cuts and vo
thisssssss
this is probably my favorite "I've tried Andrew Huberman's morning routine" video yet. Honestly, I might even try the challenge out myself. thank you!!
You sound like me! At 64, I learned that I am ADHD. WHILE I don’t medicate for it, I’m learning to manage it w organization, alarms to keep me on track, and breaks when I go off the rails and then come back to it. So far, better, but not perfect, but my self esteem and confidence has returned. I’m capable. Now I will research what else I can do to help myself b/c I’m worth it!
I teared up with you in the car scene and smiled all the way to my eyes as you celebrated "being average". Good job! I am so happy for you!!
me too!!!
A banger of a video! I also run my own business while working from home, and have experienced similar emotions recently. This video popped up because I have started researching Hubermans routine, and have already implementer some parts in my life.
I think I needed this video today. Thank you for pushing thru, so that you could help me, and many others 🙏🏻
I have actually started doing this routine and stumbled upon the same problem regarding motivation and I'm almost at the place of a car talk.
But after this video I think I found the last piece of the puzzle. I'm not addicted to my phone but I like watching random youtube videos too much. I try to use it as education and it actually helps me to keep my english level in check, however I think it serves as a "phone" for me and I need to drastically limit youtube at least until I will be able to get my routine up and running.
Thank you for this tip.
Dude, I got so verklempt when you reached your FLOW STATE, twice! I know exactly what you are going through, It's amazing.
I could give you a hug bro, you got this!
This was so beautiful. It made me cry because I've struggled with the same exact thing for so long. I'm going to try this routine too
Working through the struggles of life is always inspirational
I really want to thank you for your honesty and being so open about it. I just watched your video while feeling low at my work. really inspiring and I hope I can follow at least some of your steps. might change my life which is twice as low when you have started. Have a good one !
You deserve all the views you get, keeping someone hooked for an entire video takes a ton of hard work these days. I hope your viewer count multiplies by many many more times. All the best man
Man I am a middle aged woman I loved your story I really relate to it. I waste far too much time distracting myself with my iPad or phone. I know I have to change things up, thank you for the inspiration.
Thank you for making this video. I'm also self-employed and have been in such an awful slump lately. Didn't expect your breakdown mid-way in the video and it really hit home for me. I feel like there's some hope now for me.
Man I feel this! I have adhd and low test and have struggled a lot with it I’m much better now that I’m medicated and supplementing test, I would recommend following up on your test levels maybe do a video with Derek from more plates more dates and his company marek!
The production quality is great in this vid! Good stuff🔥👍🏼
Your car talk at 8:08 was spot on for me. Im turning 35 next month and i felt i went nowhere the last ten years. I have a good job making 90k a year but i always thought i was ment for more but im stuck in a wheel that just keeps going around and around. And now i have a 2 year old. And i see what my parents are going thru now at 60 and i cant stop thinking, is this my life? Am i going to end up like my parents? Am i really not who i want and thought i was going to be? Is there anything else out there for me?
Hi man! Great work working on yourself, really motivational.
An idea: Make a video like this every once in a while in order to document how you got over low energy periods or what kind of obstacles you encounter.
I feel like this kind of routine fades out fast for some people, and it would be nice to see some refreshment strategies
How perfect was watching another of your videos when I got this notification. Ps would still love to see a vid on trying to become ambidextrous
Thank you for sharing your experience and routine with us, really appreciate your efforts.
