Thank you for such awesome videos. Everytime there's any trending topic and uncountable related content, your videos really do stand out with clearer thoughts, better understanding and completely new horizon of knowledge. In Sha Allah, you keep creating such content and get immense love for us. I genuinely agree to most of you videos related to these topics and believe that people do try to learn and get the best out of it as they are really the kind of advice they need in the most humble and productive manner.
I know some of the aspects of dopamine, but you narrated them tremendously. I decided to work on my dopamine and to be more productive. I already uninstalled the Tiktok and facebook, now it is turn to uninstall Instagram. I will try to be bore to be more creative. Ali, you are doing a phenomenal service for all of us. Keep up the good work and aware us to be more productive. Love from Qatar!
All the PRACTICAL Advice from the video (To save your time) : 1) Try to experience "PAIN" before the "PLEASURE" AND NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND 2) AVOIDANCE (or "Dopamine Detoxxing") OF DOPAMINE-INDUCING-ACTIVITIES = GOOD. Takes 4 weeks 3) Create Barriers to those Dopamine-Inducing Activities so that you don't do them and to create friction. 4) Boredom is good. Resets dopamine and unleashes creativity.
I appreciate this but the video also have other useful things, you guys should watch it. This is an example on it own for those who looking for controlling dopamine( like if you don’t have any patient watching this, then Watch it, it is in the part 1 about seesaw thing- experience Pain first.)
Funny how we laugh as a society at people who live simple lives without all of the sugar and caffeine and screens and fast food, etc. and they’re the only ones who are truly happy and purposeful in life haha :)
Well you are just being the other extreme of the situation I am pretty sure people who leave sugar, caffeine and screens are also sad and they also feel purposeless at times and there are for sure also people who indulges in these material happiness and makes them their purpose. To achieve a comfortable isn't comfortable.
Truth. I gave up TV, watching sports, no GF - (Saving a lot of money there), Bad family members and past friends, I don't play with the phone other than a few minutes a day. I watch Solid, insightful, intelligent content and read the same kinds of books and My life couldn't be better.
Viewer from Bangladesh here. I watch almost all your videos Ali. I must say, your videos on productivity and business has changed how I see life in general. I started my freelance content writing business 4 years ago and it has been a success so far. Now I am planning to build a youtube channel like yours as well ; all that while being a doctor just like you! You have been an inspiration and videos like this always gives me a boost! Hopefully we can meet someday.
Heyy Moinul.. can we connect? I do part time content writing as well.. among other businesses. I wanted to connect so that we could share some tips on the freelance stuff. I’ll try to take the least amount of time as possible from you. By the way, I freelance in UI UX, content writing, video editing, graphic design, voice over recording, and similar services. I’m planning to make it into a proper business. So I believe a talk with you will be really valuable. If you’re okay with connecting I’ll share my Instagram Id.
I wish there were more teachers like you in this world. I absolutely love what you do, and I am so thankful! You make this planet a better place every day :) Thank you for that!
This is the best non-guilt inducing video on dopamine (detox) i’ve seen, Ali! I noticed a couple weeks ago that I was really in this addictive cycle of watching RUclips videos for hours in the morning, and then I’d have no energy/motivation to work on my business. It’s been powerful to put limits around that dopamine cycle by reinstating a good morning routine and setting rules for myself around what I can and can’t watch in the morning before work. And now I’m working on my own RUclips channel instead, which is what I actually want! Thanks for sharing.
Hey if you need any help I'm a graphic designer so I can work on projects you have please let me know how can I help you and good luck for your channel
I like how you always draw a drop whenever you have a spike on the phasic transmission. It really shows that each time you have a spike, you will feel a drop in your "mood" and that's okay. Thank you for the great video as always, Ali!
@@mynk_rjput i agree that every hyper person (that's most likely hopped up on sugar) thinks they have adhd and its name is being used ridiculously nowadays, but adhd is real its not a myth and I for one have been diagnosed with it, trust me bro the struggle is real! Cheers bro
نرجو من القائمين على القناه ان ينتبهوا من حرمانية الالحان و ربنا يبارك في حضرتك..... الحديث عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: «لَيَكونَنَّ من أُمَّتي أقوامٌ يَستَحِلُّونَ الحِرَ والحريرَ والخمرَ والمعازِفَ...» ..... يذكر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم مجموعة من الأمور التي سيستحلها بعض الناس من أمته رغم تحريمها، ومنها المعازف
"the goal here is to be bored", I wonder how many people can do that today lol without checking their phones or just get trapped in the overwhelming discomfort of not having something to occupy your mind with.
Interesting how quickly words in this vid are spoken but most likely not in a first language, yet I can follow just fine. I'm not an English major but good job.
This is a fantastic explanation. The best I've felt in months (years?) was on vaca in late May when I turned off all the alerts on my phone and used it almost entirely as either a camera or a map. .
Thank you, Ali. You are doing a change in many people's lives. I don't want you to hear this in your obituary rather than now that you are alive, thank you!. ❤
Would LOVE to see something like this with ADHD taken to account! The baseline level for us is a lot more irregular if I remember my reading right, (I may not be), but for instance, the rule of boredom is both my favorite and most challenging for me due to the ADHD. I’m frequently bored but it ends up almost being painful because of the lack of consistent non-spiking dopamine. Seeing as our system is fundamentally different in how we exist with irregular dopamine levels, I’d really like to learn if there’s ways outside of medication that can help us with addictive behaviors.
Listen Carefully Guys: one time I saw a video of this guy talkoing about Millioner Fastlane book, so I went and red the book. then red another then quite my $4k Monthly Marketing manager job at a luxury real estate company and opened my business. now I am watching this because I have so much work and clients that I cant affrod to waste a minute on social media or anything else. This guy is indeed amazing and whenever you see him on a thumbnail you gonna have to watch the entire video. THanks Ali mate you are awesom
one of the best videos on dopamine and explained it so well. The only part which was missing was about how to use the dopamine to achieve boring tasks or challenging tasks which we keep postponing.
thanks for you videos! I'm an English teacher, non-native, and your speech speed is quite fast, so this listening helps me to improve and maintain my language skills! the topics are also always interesting and mindsetting
Listed to your episode on deep dive and you talked about putting actionable steps in your videos to build a loyal audience. Theres so much to respect about you but following through on advice is awesome to see. I honestly like to watch your videos as a sense of entertainment and just to see what ali is up to kinda thing but I want to follow the inspiration from this one and abstain from listening to your podcasts in the car at 2x speed and drive in quietness for maybe a time or 2 as a mini experiment.
I hear you talk about how you now will focus more on enjoyment than quality, and I only see the quality improve even more, this is probably the best video on dopamine on youtube, thank you for this video!
Thank you for this video I’m working through a dopamine detox now. Also kudos to you for being in such good shape! I can see the difference and you look great 💪🏾
In the video, Ali taught us about dopamine, detox your mind and how to control your dopamine system. This video helped me a lot. A few days ago I was in porn addiction, facebook addiction, YT short addiction and so on... I've watched bunch of videos about the topic but this video helped soo much rather than other videos.
You're absolutely right, there are too many distractions! I don't use any social media anymore except RUclips. But I'll try to cut it too for a month and see how my productivity level goes. Thank you for the video!
Interestingly, watching this video untill the end, without grabbing my phone in the process, without skipping anything (why is hurrying my natural state?) trying to have the information you're giving me be enough to entretain me, was already a great experience in controling my crave for more dopamine. I find that lately i haven't watched many videos on here that aren't just "passive" entertainment - and that leaves me out of such great content and learning oportunities. Thanks for another great video. You just made me rethink some things ;)
Although my tonic dopamine has gone higher, but I feel like watching this video got my phasic dopamine even higher. I am feeling really good and motivated. Thank you Ali! I've never seen such a comprehensive and on point video on this topic.
your explanation was so clear! Really appreciate the way you present. My grandpa used to say on the topic: “choose your crutches wisely”- for sure he didn’t know about dopamine and yet the way he did with a different vocabulary.
Ohh Ali I sometimes get a bit tired of hearing about this new app / productivity system, but I love the way you explain things and I really love your passion for learning, it’s contagious. It was interesting overall
hello, if you don't mind, please make a cortisol breakdown video just like this one....i was really helpful to hear you explain this dopamine thing in detail and i personally need a similar explanation with stress because i heard somewhere that some stress is beneficial for productivity but not all stress is beneficial......and also controlling can be helpful
"Amazon reviews are my love language!"😄 Very cute Ali! And this is the best and most concise video I've seen explaining dopamine, and how to not allow it to control us. (I loved the book Dopamine Nation also - some shocking, yet intriguing, examples in it.)
I have a problem where, when I know I need a day off because I'm crashing, and I actually take it, I feel terrible about it the next day and don’t feel motivated enough to get back to work. As a result, one day off often becomes three days off. Then, I become motivated to get back into the rhythm, but by then, I'm already three days behind where I should have been.
The fact that my reward after doing a painful task is watching your videos, not sure if it’s a “reward” seeing as am still being productive even during my rest time
That was a great explanation! Slow COMT gene mutations can create a huge issue with high tonic dopamine as the body breaks it down too slowly. I'm researching this for my ADHD kids and have improved my intermediate COMT so it doesn't become slow and was able to stop my ADHD meds with vitamins and minerals instead. These are great tips to add into our plans.
@21972012145525 In humans, the COMT (Catechol-O-methyltransferase) gene encodes a protein that is involved in metabolizing various catecholamine neurotransmitters. This includes neurotransmitters such as dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine. Some COMT gene variants (among others) have been associated with ADHD. MTHFR is another that's recently been getting talked about a lot but following the advice of anyone that say, "just take a methyl vitamin instead" is like playing roulette if you have COMT gene variants as well.
If you are my professor in my college i never fail in my exams you are a good teacher and its a great video I learned so much from this video lots of love to you❤️❤️
What a great video! I appreciate that you share the science of how dopamine is actually working in the body. It’s a really helpful way to conceptualize how it works. Thank you!
Controlling your emotions and you mind is the key. Desensitise yourself and build mental resilience but controlling yourself. Don't give in. Stay Uncommon!
What an amazing video! You just explain things in a specific and simple way that others can't, that is also fun and entertaining to watch. I also listen to your podcast and can only recommend it. Keep going!!!!

Asusual, this video is super useful. I have already purchased Feel - Good - Productivity book and quite enjoying it. Great book Ali!. Thanks a ton. Love from India ❤
Great video Ali! Currently in the process of being more conscientious with my activities. I can't even begin to say how much you and your channel have helped. Thank you.
What a great teacher you are. I've really wanted to understand the dopamine issue for a while and that was a matter class. Fantastic that you are teaching like this and your channel is amazing and teaching so many people in various subjects... That is the pleasure part for me... The pain is that I wish you would still be a physician because your are really smart and unfortunately there aren't that many smart doctors!!
I remember my electricity was out due to a storm for like 3 days and during those days I got better sleep at night read more books and studied more even by candle light than I had in years. I remember before internet in my house I was always reading encyclopedias and studying them then when we finally got internet during covid I became a horrible student and I felt like I couldn't control myself. So these little sneaky addictions literally scare me sometimes. the amount of productivity you have when bored and all distractions are cut out is painful at first but it's so rewarding and beneficial to your life. So I guess just an internet detox with only books paper pens etc when you really need that focus.
To your point on boredom: this is why I’m so glad that they have not figured out a way for Bluetooth headphones to work underwater. When I’m swimming laps I inevitably get a little bored. But then it becomes my time to think and process.
I was doing the exact same thing without even knowing it !!! But a year ago I've stopped doing it and just being addicted to these things, i was telling my mind that if u studied enough we will watch/play/scroll, also i was saying if you didn't study this and that in the end of the day , we will not have our phone, i was not even knowing that this is the correct damn thing to do !! But I'm trying to go back to my old self after one year without it.

Simple, brief and precise. The most effective video on dopamine I've seen. Great work.
its crazy how even in your video about dopamine you still over stimulate us by changing the video image every 3 seconds
Your content is inspiring me every single day to better mylself at my early 20’s. Truly deeply Thankful.
"If you're addicted to chocolate" was said just as I was pulling out a piece of dark chocolate... hmmm... nice timing.

Great video! I particularly resonate with the rule of boredom - it's incredibly grounding and helps with re-centring our state of mind.
"Amazon reviews are my love language!"😄 Very cute Ali! And this is the best and most concise video I've seen explaining dopamine, and how to not allow it to control us. (I loved the book Dopamine Nation also - some shocking, yet intriguing, examples in it.)
Amazing video Ali. Very well crafted. 👏
I have a problem where, when I know I need a day off because I'm crashing, and I actually take it, I feel terrible about it the next day and don’t feel motivated enough to get back to work. As a result, one day off often becomes three days off. Then, I become motivated to get back into the rhythm, but by then, I'm already three days behind where I should have been.
I second this. There is a constant pressure of guilt traps. Would be great to see Ali address this for sure.
Same here as well
Take it before you crash preventatively
this is my problem!
Or realize one day isn't enough time to recover. Take two days off instead of one
love that boredom is addressed
The fact that my reward after doing a painful task is watching your videos, not sure if it’s a “reward” seeing as am still being productive even during my rest time
I’ve learned sooooo much from you Ali and I’m soooo thankful for that. Alhamdullilah 🙌🏾

Continue, I follow you from Egypt
Great video Ali! Currently in the process of being more conscientious with my activities. I can't even begin to say how much you and your channel have helped. Thank you.
شكراً علي عبدال ❤
Loved this video! Really insightful. Thank you Ali and team 🙂
5 min into the video - you are a great great explainer. That's a handful skill, we can learn from you!
Excellent work as always, Ali!
What a great teacher you are. I've really wanted to understand the dopamine issue for a while and that was a matter class. Fantastic that you are teaching like this and your channel is amazing and teaching so many people in various subjects... That is the pleasure part for me...
The pain is that I wish you would still be a physician because your are really smart and unfortunately there aren't that many smart doctors!!
Watching your videos also releases a lot of dopamine.❤
I remember my electricity was out due to a storm for like 3 days and during those days I got better sleep at night read more books and studied more even by candle light than I had in years. I remember before internet in my house I was always reading encyclopedias and studying them then when we finally got internet during covid I became a horrible student and I felt like I couldn't control myself. So these little sneaky addictions literally scare me sometimes. the amount of productivity you have when bored and all distractions are cut out is painful at first but it's so rewarding and beneficial to your life. So I guess just an internet detox with only books paper pens etc when you really need that focus.
Said it before. I'll say it again.
Thank you Ali.
BTW you are batting 1000 on app recommendations recently.
The more practical real world examples you can provide, the better
To your point on boredom: this is why I’m so glad that they have not figured out a way for Bluetooth headphones to work underwater. When I’m swimming laps I inevitably get a little bored. But then it becomes my time to think and process.
This intro editing is 🔥
This video is basically a really good summary of the half of atomic habits on avoiding bad habits. Recommend the book if you want to go more in depth
I was doing the exact same thing without even knowing it !!! But a year ago I've stopped doing it and just being addicted to these things, i was telling my mind that if u studied enough we will watch/play/scroll, also i was saying if you didn't study this and that in the end of the day , we will not have our phone, i was not even knowing that this is the correct damn thing to do !! But I'm trying to go back to my old self after one year without it.
Great video, thanks Ali!
