Outlines
💤 The Downfall of Prioritizing Sleep Last
This paragraph emphasizes the detrimental effects of neglecting sleep, which is crucial for managing emotions, stress, hormones, concentration, and the immune system. The speaker warns against the common mistake of prioritizing sleep last, using stimulants like coffee to mask fatigue, and the negative impact of excessive screen time before sleep and upon waking. The suggestion to avoid morning light and stay in dark environments further contributes to a disrupted sleep cycle and overall poor health.
🚫 Suppressing Emotions Leads to Emotional Distress
The second paragraph discusses the importance of acknowledging and processing emotions rather than suppressing them. Suppressing emotions can lead to emotional buildup and distress, which is counterproductive to personal growth and well-being. The speaker advises against the harmful practice of denying emotions like fear, sadness, and guilt, and instead recommends journaling and talking to friends as healthier outlets for emotional expression.

Transcripts
I truly believe that our actions in our
20s hold the power to ruin our entire
lives and there are seven simple things
we do daily that lead to our gradual
downfall so if you are in your 20s pay
attention take notes and do these seven
things daily if you aren't already doing
them number seven let sleep be our last
priority sleep alone can manage our
emotions our stress levels our horor
hormones how well we can concentrate and
our immune system among other
things so don't ever give it the
importance and attention that it
deserves by fixing a sleep schedule and
when our body is call out for attention
by signs like tiredness and fatigue just
numb it with coffee or
tea let your mobile phone be the last
thing you see before you sleep and let
that be the first thing you check when
you wake up bonus points if you don't
get light exposure early in the morning
and stay in your dark sad room number
six suppress your painful emotions
suppress and turn away from all the
painful emotions at all cost which were
given to you by Evolution for a reason
be a man keep denying to yourself and to
others that you feel emotions such as
fear sadness grief jealousy shame guilt
Etc and become a human pressure cooker
journaling and talking to friends can
help you understand and release these
emotions so that's a strict no no number
five consume foods that give you glucose
Pines pick foods that are tasty for your
palette and are amazing to suppress the
painful emotions you've been avoiding
these give you a glucose Spike instantly
and feel good but after 2 hours you
experience this crash this step will
single-handedly give you lethargy a
mode weaker immune system pimples on
your face and ensure that you not only
your 20s but also your 30s 40s 50s
and 60s because it leads to your body
aging faster bonus point if you just sit
on your ass post your meals and let the
glucose levels rise number four over
stimulate your brain just bombard your
brain with visuals and information for
dopamine to distract yourself from the
suppressed emot tions watch Pawn Doom
scroll social media and play video games
for at least 4 hours a day to ensure
that you fry your dopamine receptors
this step will make sure that you have
no motivation left to pursue the
worthwhile goals in your life make this
your goto when you experience strong
emotions and you want to avoid them
bonus damage if you do this early in the
day number three become a maximalist the
DST believed that human life can only
flourish in Simplicity and we don't want
flourishing so Simplicity just keep
accumulating more and more stuff to fill
this inner void we experience instead of
acknowledging it and feeling it with
little thought it becomes obvious that
more stuff and a complicated life would
not make us happier so let's keep doing
that never ever laser focus on a few
things that matter to us that will make
present and future selves happy number
two become a perfectionist it is a
disposition to regard anything short of
perfection as
unacceptable perfectionism is an excuse
for not taking action it makes us not
take chances procrastinate stresses us
out and makes us believe that our lives
are worse than they actually are it also
gives us low
self-esteem sounds like a perfect recipe
for misery right
perfectionism does stop us from making a
fool out of ourselves but I believe that
in our 20s making a fool out of
ourselves is how we learn grow and
understand things being okay with
imperfect action and coming off as
imperfect is the antidote to that so
let's stay away from such a mindset
number one value consumption over action
action is the only thing that gets us
progress and we don't want on that so
let's just keep consuming videos like
this and more books and just forget
about ever implementing things instead
of taking mental and literal notes of
what you want to implement From Any
Given self-development video just watch
10 more and drown yourself in
infotainment never adapt an action first
mindset imagine this we prioritize our
sleep and balance our glucose level so
we start feeling better already we
reduce unnecessary stimulation which
gives us more free time in our days and
we use this free time to dive within and
acknowledge and feel the suppressed
emotions that we've been avoiding we use
techniques like meditation and
journaling our Baseline dopamine levels
increase because of the lack of over
stimulation and our motivation to do
things increase we simplify our lives
and focus on the few things that matter
to us we let go of perfectionism bit by
bit and we start valuing action even
though it's imperfect sometimes this
makes us more consistent in the long run
and also we adapt an action first
mindset and instantly start implementing
the stuff we find to be interesting from
online videos or self-development books
think of how much more healthier are 20s
would be if we approach it like this but
we don't want that so we stick to these
seven things that ruin our 20s
