Transcripts
when you think about changing your life
a lot of times we get this image of like
this dude shirtless in the gym with the
Rope thing somebody like Zen reading a
book with books all around them and
headphones on we think of challenges
like going monk mode or 75 hard or all
these things that are popular and trendy
but I've had days where my life has
literally shifted from one day to the
next just by implementing some not super
hard habits so today I wanted to share
five habits that can literally change
your life within a day that are not
actually all that hard to implement if
you're anything like me and probably
most of humanity then you have a lot lot
of stuff you got to do and it seems like
the important things never really get
done so I've been using this rule or
habit or idea called the Eisenhower
Matrix or the Eisenhower rule that
really helps me get the important stuff
done and actually not do a lot of things
which is I think even more important so
how this works is you kind of take all
your tasks that you have to do and you
can kind of organize them into these
four separate quadrants whether you do
this in your head or you just write it
out doesn't really matter it depends on
what works best for you you have this
first quadrant which is for Urgent tasks
that are really important and you should
absolutely do first these are for things
that absolutely need to get done if you
want to like progress your life move
forward in your career any of that type
of stuff then there's the second box
which is for scheduling things these
aren't things that you absolutely need
to do right now but they're pretty
important and you need to get them done
eventually so you don't do them right
away because they're not as important
and you put them on the calendar this
can be anything from like a schedule to
actually go to the gym to whatever the
next steps are for you in your business
then there's this third quadrant
delegate which is something most of us
have a really hard time with doing so
these are important things that need to
get done but they're not as important as
the other two and maybe you can spend
your time better so this is something
that I've been really practicing over
the past couple years after reading the
4-Hour Work week is trying to find
things in my life or in my business
especially I can delegate to somebody
else to buy back some of my life the
fourth box is you put everything in when
you're like looking at your overall life
that you don't want to do anymore that
aren't adding things to your life so if
you're spending a lot of time maybe on
social media if it lands in that box
where you don't want to do it right away
you don't want to put it on a schedule
you can't have somebody else to it and
it's not adding anything to your life
then it goes in this box and you get rid
of it this is often the thing that keep
keeps you from getting all the important
stuff done you know you have something
important to do but instead you're
playing a game on your phone you're
answering emails too many times you're
doing whatever it is that is not all
that important but it's keeping you from
success everything that you're doing
should fit into one of these boxes and
if it's in here it's got to go if you
want to do one thing that will make
tomorrow better try doing a digital
detox this right here is probably what
is holding the most amount of people
back from doing what they want to do
from being more productive from being
more happy from just getting stuff done
starting that business whatever it is
this is generally the problem you can
take this as Extreme as you want to from
literally putting your phone into a
cookie jar to setting timers for how
much time you're allowed on different
apps there's a few apps that I've been
trying out that actually block you from
using things like Instagram or whatever
after you've used your 37 minutes or
whatever you pick you literally can't
get into them anymore so if you have a
problem with spending too much time like
just wasting on your phone this can be a
really cool idea you can also create
phone free zones so like when you're in
your office when you're in your bedroom
or your kitchen your phone is not
allowed in that space Maybe has a
charger or somewhere where it goes a
drawer where you can put it in and then
have time to not be distracted to not be
scrolling Instagram to not be listening
to a podcast not be doing anything but
just be present in the moment you can
also do basic things like turning on
grayscale mode turning off all
notifications using Focus mode so people
can't get in touch with you or if you
want to take it a little bit more
extreme you can do a 7-Day or a 30-day
social media detox where you just get
rid of everything including YouTube and
Instagram and everything else off of
your phone fine you can keep YouTube but
you can only watch educational stuff for
real though whatever you got to do to
like reset yourself to get out of this
Loop so that you can really start to
make progress in your life and
everything that comes into your life is
hopefully like this and encouraging and
making you feel better and helping you
feel more motivated and you get out all
of that toxic crap that is on like
Instagram and everywhere else and you
can focus on living in the real world
and doing things that matter phones
really eat up most of our Lives the
average person spends 3 hours and 15
minutes on their phone every day and
they check their phone 58 times per day
which I honestly think it's way higher
than that for a lot of people there's
actually a quote that I really like from
the book The Art of focus there doesn't
seem to be a more worthwhile Endeavor to
dedicate your life to than to see what
you are capable of so I have a question
that I'd like you to answer in the
comments do you think you were doing
everything you were capable of are you
living up to your potential I don't
think I am and to be honest including
right now I don't think I'm living up to
my potential I don't think I'm giving
life my best shot and so I'm actively
working to change
that as many of you might know I have
been been obsessed with coffee for the
past like four or 5 years um I always
liked coffee but then I was introduced
to this idea of like kx's pour over
coffee and actually caring about what
the coffee tastes like and ever since I
started my channel I have wanted to be
sponsored by a coffee company but I've
never found one um that I liked so I've
never done it till now this is like a
life dream of mine guys I have finally
partnered with Trade coffee because it's
literally some of the best coffee I've
ever had in my life a lot of coffee that
you get online can be cheap it can be
old it can be kind of stale it's
questionably Source but trade actually
has a really wide variety of coffees
from small batch Roasters in the US the
coffee is roasted to order and it ships
to you within 48 hours which is like
amazing for real if you want some high
quality coffee check out trade you can
get it delivered there's a bunch of
different options depending on what
you're into taste Wise It's Super Fresh
super good you can also get 30% off your
first order when you subscribe use the
link down below thank you so much trade
for sponsoring me this is it's
lifechanging all right it's not exactly
life-changing it's coffee but it's
amazing it's very good consistency and
starting strong consistency is really
the key in any progress in your life it
all comes from these small tiny changes
done over a long period of time that
really leads to a lot of success when it
comes to getting in shape you could
spend an entire week hitting the gym 5
hours a day and you're not really going
to see that much progress but if you go
consistently three times a week for a
year or two you're going to see a ton of
progress It's it's really small
consistent Habits Like voting for
yourself to be that person that you want
to be done over a long period of time
that will just transform your life
without actually a ton of effort so if
you want to start this pick one habit
that you think you should be doing you
you know would improve your life you
could do it if you set your mind to it
and just start that with the smallest
possible step do it tomorrow if you've
been wanting to get in shape forever put
into your schedule tomorrow go to the
gym for 15 minutes to work out to do 100
push-ups whatever it is something that's
attainable it's not too hard it's not
going to trash you and if you have this
be something that you could do first
thing in the morning that really helps
like I love having in the morning I I
read one page of a book I have coffee I
have this little morning routine that I
do and I know that right from the getg
go I am starting my day off with a win
so what can that be for you make a
financial plan I know you can't change
your finances like overnight and doing
this in a day doesn't always make
tomorrow better but for me if I know
what I'm doing with my finances it makes
it so much easier for me to follow
through and then also be like encouraged
in everything that I do because I know
that when I make coffee at home and you
know I don't waste that that $5 on a
latte the classic saving money thing or
I don't online shop or I'm studying to
learn a skill that will make you know me
be able to earn more money in the future
when I add you know a little bit into my
investment fund if I know exactly why I
am doing this because if I follow these
steps I will reach Financial Freedom in
12 years or 15 years or 17 or 6 years if
you don't know how the decisions that
you're making are impacting your
financial future you are guaranteeing
yourself to never be that success story
who got to retire early and do whatever
they wanted and start that business and
have freedom and travel and do all that
stuff it will almost guarantee never
happen to you if you aren't trying for
it if you're not going in the right
direction if you don't have a plan of
like if I do this this and this then I
will be able to do this because I took
time to actually build Financial plans
for myself you know last year we were
able to travel for a month through
Europe something I never would have
dreamed about being able to do we're
actually able to take multiple vacations
I've really taken time to set up my life
and my business to the point that I can
work just a few hours a day right now I
could take a couple months or even a
couple years off and it wouldn't really
affect my financial life and that is
such a stress reliever it makes every
day so much easier so if you don't have
a financial plan it is well worth the
investment of time or money or whatever
it takes to really build that if this is
something that you want to do and you
want like a step-by-step action plan for
financial Independence even if you're
deep in debt you could check out wisi
there's a link down below I also just
got like kind of exclusive access to a
five week uh course that they're doing
actually taught by the CEO of wisi on
how to create the like ultimate plan for
financial Independence it's usually like
$4.99 uh but if you use the link down
below it's actually only1 149 and
there's only 50 spots so if that's
something you're serious about I think
it's a really good investment so there's
a link below check it out if you're
interested go ahead and exercise so this
is not the clearest one but I just
wanted to tell you a little bit about
how this has literally changed my life
I've been prone to like spells where I
get depressed it's probably not clinical
depression but like everybody gets these
times where you're just like in a rut
you're feeling down on yourself you're
not liking a lot of the things you're
doing you just get gloomy you don't have
energy and you're like you know you're
kind of depressed and the one habit that
has kind of kept me from going too deep
down the rabbit hole over the past 10
plus years that I've struggled with this
is exercise stain in shape when I'm
angry when I'm stressed out when I've
got too much going on with work whatever
it is even when I don't feel like I have
time to do more I go to the gym
consistently I've been to the gym at
least three times a week for the past
how old am I 11 years like honestly this
has been the best thing I've ever done
for my mental health I feel more
confident I feel more healthy I have
more energy and it's even like immediate
where if I'm stressed out if I'm not
feeling great about today if I go to the
gym especially if I do it first thing in
the morning then I already did something
hard right off the getg go I already
worked on improving my life just for
myself not for anybody else and I can
push myself into doing something hard
because if I do something really hard
right in the beginning of the day it
makes everything else in my day just
feel easier I don't know if that's just
like a mental thing it probably is but
when you continuously do hard things out
of your own choice nobody's making you
do it it makes all the other stuff which
seemed hard before not really as hard
those habits have changed my life
hopefully uh they will help you as well
subscribe and all that and um see you
next Christmas
