you hear your alarm clock snooze it multiple times and when you finally wake up you think to yourself ah here we go again you get out of your bed feeling tired and unmotivated you grab your phone start scrolling and see other people living their best lives you start to think yourself my life sucks life is so unfair there is no point getting in better nothing is going to change nobody can save me this luck of motivation starts to spread into other aspects of your life there is no point getting in shape you're good as you
are so you start to skip the gym eat more junk food drink alcohol smoke cigarettes every night why would you even get 8 hours of sleep you start to sleep later and later and eventually pulling all nighter becomes your routine reading books is a complete waste of time right you would rather scroll on Tik Tok watching content you don't even truly enjoy life starts to feel pointless you don't even enjoy the things you used to enjoy anymore in high school my dad was scammed by my uncles and lost his job putting us in a huge
depth despite seeking help from my f side died they ignored us my parent worked 24/7 to support our family and eventually my mom got sick we couldn't even afford school lunch and my dad's side refused to help us telling us my mom should work harder while my mom's side help us a lot it still left a hole in my heart watching my parents get more and more tired made me feel something I can't explain I became quite depressed in high school I spent my days only scrolling on social media I wasn't motivated to do anything
and even waking up became a challenge for me I felt hopeless helpless and had no motivation towards life at all one day I was watching YouTube and I still remember the day I stumbled upon my first productivity video on YouTube I started to learn more about productivity and started consuming self-improvement content after a while this content gave me hope and willingness to improve my life I started to take more responsibility towards my life and step by step I started to take control over my life since I was 15 16 I always wanted to become a
YouTuber and after failing four to five challeng I quitted for a while but it was always a dream of mine and sharing my experiences and thoughts through a video has been always a passion of mine I decided to go in on YouTube during the lockdown I cut out all my unhealthy habits started exercising at home and fully focused on YouTube for a year I literally disappeared and focused on my dream I gave my all in in the beginning I was only getting 40 50 views but I promised myself to go harder and keep going I
kept going for a while and suddenly one of my videos to cough in only 3 months we gained 100 subscribers on this channel I started making more and more money by doing what I love and eventually I started supporting my family financially and retired them partially my goal is to completely retire them in 2 years and make them live their dream life gaining this Freedom wasn't easy at all fighting with negative emotions every day feeling like a failure feeling hopeless pointless helpless I know that feeling but I want to remind you something no one is
going to save you except you you either evolve evolve or die that is the truth about our world you either learn the game play accordingly and Vin or you complain and do nothing about it and eventually lose if your life currently sounds like this I want you to stick around no matter how hopeless you feel in the current moment there is always something you can do you are much more capable than this and I trust you will succeed we got this I got you and you got me being successful making more money than other people
having Freedom being in shape having a good relationship and living the dream life obviously comes with sacrifices not every wants to be exceptional and some people are happy living a mediocre life and that's completely fine but if you clicked on this video something tells me that you want more than mediocracy you want more than an ordinary life and if that's the case we need to escape mediocracy together in a world where eating a bunch of unhealthy stuff drinking every single week on Fridays having shallow relationships being jealous bashing other people's success is normalized and wanting
more wanting to improve get better is considered toxic mediocracy is not going to help your dreams no matter how crazy no matter how stupid they sound to other people I want you to identify your goals I want you to truly ask yourself what do you want from Life why are you wanting to change your life think about this deeply and write them down on a paper or on a notion page if you will once you have your goals written down I want you to figure out what it takes to achieve them break them down into
multiple steps and Milestones you often became un motivated when we realize the gap between our current self and our ideal self by setting Milestones you can minimize that Gap if you don't have any idea what the steps will look like for you research it I'm quite sure there is someone on the internet living your dream life and teaching about it and probably had a similar situation as you do right now watch their videos buy their books read their blogs and articles and learn from them I'm not only talking about YouTubers or online celebrities by the
way many successful people write books and share their knowledge for 10 to $20 so there is no excuse for not reading regularly and learning from them once you have your goals and Milestones written down it's time to disappear for 6 to 12 months during these 6 to 12 months we're going to Solly focus on our goals working towards our goals is going to be the number one priority you might be thinking oh disappearing for 6 to 12 months is Extreme I would rather have a balance I understand you but you're the one who wants the
results fast if you want an extraordinary life you can't live like an ordinary person if you want quick results that will help you escape the rot to your in and change your life I'm sorry but you need to go a little extreme sometimes if you listen to many successful people you will hear them say that at the beginning of their career they solidly focus on their goal and nothing else no matter what happens in your life you're going to stay focused and during these 6 to 12 months there is a protocol that can help you
Trend amend sleep and that is called monk mode if you're interested in improving yourself and your life I'm quite sure sure that you have stumbled upon monk mode before and if you're not let me explain it real quick for you so that we have a better understanding essentially monk mode is a mindset an approach to life where you commit to eliminating distractions and dedicating yourself fully to a task or project by doing so you enter a state of focus and concentration that allows you to work efficiently and effectively towards your goals the great thing about
monk mode is that there isn't a one protocol everyone has their own version of Monk mode and today I want to share my version and one thing that people get wrong is that they focus too much on their routine your routine is a supplement to push you forward it's not the definition of yourself at the same time if you're mentally and physically unhealthy when you reach your goal you will not be able to fully enjoy it so what's the meaning of reaching your goals then you can create your own monk mode protocol but let me
share my version of Monk mode there are 10 rules for my monk mode if you apply all the rules of my monk mode for 6 to 12 weeks you'll be unnoticeable just by doing some fancy morning routines and spending your whole day reading and watching and researching about successful people you can't become successful as well right I also fell into that trap a couple of years ago if you want to change our lives we need to take action no matter how much you feel like you're progressing just by consuming nothing is going to change in
your life if you don't apply those lessons into your life every single day time block four hours of deep work into your calendar depending on your current circumstance it might be one or it might be even 5 hours the point is to dedicate a time where you do nothing but focus on your goals and take action for them that is the important part and during your deep work sessions sometimes you might need a change of scenery working for hours on the same desk can be extremely boring and if you have ADHD like me switching places
can be a GameChanger whenever you're working at a cafe or Library use the Asus mb16 QHD 16in portable monitor this portable monitor is a lightweight slim and has a compact design an extended screen can boost your productivity by help you focus on tasks like online learning attending online meetings doing research and scripts video editing and switching between apps and documents unlike other off-brands the Zen screen mb16 QHD portable monitor is built with real design quality not plastic not scratching hand the Aro L-shaped design kickstand and both side port design allow me to adjust the monitor

of alcohol consumption can disrupt your cortisol levels and make you feel more stress during the week if you drink very rarely when you're with friend and family it's not the end of the world world but during your monk mode I recommend not drinking alcohol don't forget this is a protocol to change and gain control over your life so the best amount of alcohol to drink is no alcohol during these 6 months do not use drugs this includes smoking cigarettes feed or using LSD or any type of drug quit now some people limit their caffeine intake
too since it's also drug but caffeine has many benefits consumed in moderation especially for ADHD and it can help improving alertness and concentration and might even calm you down if you have ADHD I only drink one to two cups of coffee during the day so and I don't consume any type of caffeine after 400 p.m. to prevent it from disrupting my sleep it's helping me get more things done so I'm keeping it in my protocol but depending on how it affects you you can the problem with the excessive social media usage is that these platform
especially short form based platforms like Tik Tok and Instagram and YouTube shorts make you release crazy amounts of dopamine dopamine is the neurotransmitter that has been the classically associated with the reinforcing effects of drugs of abuse and may take a key role in triggering the neurobiological changes associated with addiction the more dopamine you produce the higher amount you require next time to satisfy yourself and with social media it can easily turn into a negative habit Loop the more you consume it the more addictive it becomes and the more you crave it LO dopamine producing tasks
like working studying exercising meditating and reading becomes harder than ever I'm saying limit social media not quit it because if you know how to use it correctly social media can change your life and even you can make money out of it you can learn from Highly Successful People by listening to them on podcast watching videos from people you respect to motivate yourself further learn new things and network with people on the Internet it's all about how you use it and if you're a content creator like me understanding the trends and defining the demand is done
by analyzing social media so every time you're watching something ask yourself s why am I watching this what's the purpose what's the goal if you have a clear purpose then go for it but if you grab your phone mindlessly almost like an autopilot then don't do it when we exercise our body releases chemical called endorphines these endorphines interact with receptors in our brains and reduce our perception of pain endorphines also trigger a positive feeling in the body similar to that of morphine additionally endorphines can help decrease cravings for Alcohol and Other Drugs regular exercise has
been proven to reduce stress W of anxiety and feelings of depression boost self-esteem and improve sleep research has shown that exercise is an effective but often underused treatment for mild to moderate depression even in addition exercising outside with the appropriate sun protection of course can help boost levels of vitamin D and your mood if you want to get most done during your 4-Hour Dew workk session every day you need to get your sleep okay I've been tracking my sleep every night for the past year and he using my or ring so and this is not
a sponsored pul actively tracking my sleep every night and seeing how it affects my performance during the day has been a GameChanger no matter how busy stressful you are you should never give up on your sleep get at least 7even Plus hours of sleep I'm not talking about the amount you spend on bed but the amount of sleep you get I usually get around like 8 to 9 hours of sleep per night if you're spending your whole day indoor and not getting sunline and if you find yourself feeling down no matter you feel down okay
and people who were depressed the study found that having less exposure to sunlight was linked to having worse cognitive function this means that people who got less sunlight were more likely to have problems with their thinking skills also viewing morning and evening sunlight is really the key to reboost night sleep and strong focus and energy during the day you should never directly look into the sun you get what I mean every day view sunline for 10 to 30 minutes minimum each morning and don't stare at the Sun but get the sunlight in leaving sunlight in
the morning Coes up to 50 % increase in circulating cortisol epinephrine and dopamine these result in healthy increases in energy immune system function and mood so it can also help with anxiety and depression life will get in away things will happen and you will have days when the last thing you want to do is to focus on your goal but trust me it will be all worth it at the end when you look at your past self in the future you'll be thankful without personal meaning it's hard to achieve the things you want especially if
you're dreaming big people won't understand you they will make fun of you and they will say it is impossible this and that they will do everything to discourage you there will be tons of reasons to quit but during those days remind yourself why you started in the first place whenever you want to quit remind yourself that this is where most people quit and why they don't win being alive is the biggest privilege we all have it's easy to compare your life to others and complain but don't take things you have for granted you have access
to Internet and probably have a roof over your head and food to eat with internet access you're capable of learning new skills and broadening your horizons in the past only the wealth had access to information and education but now the power of internet has democratized information basically you have chat gbt to give feedback on your problems even if it's not perfect it's still better than nothing and you have YouTube to listen to podcasts learn from successful people and get motivated you have Instagram to connect and network with other people easily Twitter to share your thoughts
and knowledge easily instead of complaining focus on the next step you're going to take and the last step is to disappear for 6 to 12 months if you have more to give you should give more I will see you in a much better position in 6 to 12 months okay see you soon bye
