The Inforium (previously The College Info Geek Podcast) is a show about productivity, personal finance, entrepreneurship, and various other interesting things.
This show is basically an excuse for Thomas Frank and Martin Boehme to get together and chat every couple of weeks.
On this podcast, you’ll learn how to study more effectively, be more productive, become a better job candidate, and more. You won't learn how to conquer small European countries.
Episodes are casual conversations, so you'll find a mix of useful tips along with fun discussion.
Parenting skills are at an all-time low. No wonder: broken marriages, broken homes, broken families, broken social skills. It knows no economic boundaries. We are generations into our young growing up sick.
Brushing your teeth. Sometimes this is way too much- here’s a little hank. Get 2 cups , 1 empty and 1 with water, your toothbrush and toothpaste. Now you can sit down on the couch ir sit up in your bed and brush your teeth slowly. If you use an electric toothbrush, think about if this toothbrush irritates you, the sound or the vibration? I don’t like electric toothbrushes. I like ones with soft bristles.
Hello, I tried to to summarize the video Here are the 4 points he talked about. 1 ) You wouldn't know the things you have in common. " ask more questions " 2 ) Connect not based on similar interests but rather on the similar situation " event, weather, travelling same place " 3 ) Connect on shared values " Business, life, mindset " 4 ) Invest in them, be excited about the things the person in front you interested in.

Things I like more than playing video games: Listening to music Hiking Visiting the coast Going on a road trip Watching sports Socializing with friends Watching movies
I just don't want to... i try this or that... nothing. I don't like anything. Too much ruminating of the mistakes i made, that ruined my life,.. The insomnia, anxiety... just keeps the loop of torture. Anyone else?... suffer daily like this?.....!!!😫
the hardest part for me is when the other person talks to passionate about something and all I can think of is "sorry, I don't care" but I don't want to be rude so I just say whatever
The algorithm knows me too well because this 5 year old video appeared on my homepage lol. But wow this hits hard, I'm living completely by myself as a university student for the first time and the existential dread is almost constant. These kind words in this video feel like a warm hug
How can I change my attitude to have more good experiences Ive had some pretty bad ones and I don’t want to experience that ever again. How do i go about changing my attitude so i can have a better experience in the future so my life won’t feel like it’s in danger
Since the time I was in high school, which literally a quarter century ago, I've had friends that don't necessarily resonate with me. LOL! Years later, I remain to question WHY we're still friends. We share very little in common. This especially applies to my friend, Breanna. I don't necessarily want to burn bridges with her, especially since she latched onto me as a friend, 20 years ago. Breanna's intentions are good. She buys me presents and I reciprocate for birthdays and holidays. However, it's unnecessary because it feels like I'm obligated to do it. Now that she has my cell phone number, she randomly texts me about the dumbest things. Considering that we're in our early 40's, Breanna acts like the stereotypical Incel. There's nothing wrong with her being a fan of Marvel Superhero characters. I love watching Anime, Horror, especially since I'm a Horror author, listening to music, etc. At the same time, I know how to assimilate with OLDER and more mature adults. BTW: Breanna has a Masters in English and knows how to clean up in sells. Yesterday, I suggested that she try joining Writing groups and even watch parties near her neighborhood or something. It sounds like I'm being mean to Breanna, but we don't live in the same state anymore and our hobbies, interests, views, and LIFESTYLES are polar opposites. Also, she needs to grow up and realize that I have a busy life playing caregiver to sick and disabled family members, including my own mother. Even though Breanna has a good-paying job, she's careless and immature, especially when she wastes my time texting me about how she lost the mates to her gloves and that she's eating ice cream. LOL! Those are childish traits for a 41-year-woman with a Masters in English. LOL! Just saying.
I always thought that being intrested in a person is not genuine if you are not caring about their interest because that doesnt interest you. So i always thought i was a bad and egoistic person. But hearing what your take was on what it means to be intrested in a person with no common grounds and adding the fact that commication is a way to connect and connections are build on understanding. And understanding is mostly of all being able to relate in a way. I see now that i am intrested in a person when i try to connect tho we have no common grounds but i do connect with how they feel about a certain interest of theirs that i dont have to care about. And if i do than thats even better.
😮 ONE THING THAT THESE VIDEOS ARE NOT IS MEDIOCRE! HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT😅. I ASSURE TOU THAT YOU HELPED ME MORE THAN YOU COULD EVER IMAGINE. ESPECIALY THE TALK ABOUT DEPRESSION, SO HONEST THAT IT HIT HOME INSTANTLY AND TAUGHT ME NECESSARY SKILLS. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HARD AND SMART WORK! VERY SUCCESSFUL PODCAST, SERIOUS YET LIVELY AND FULL OF PRECIOUS VALUES. IT IS A DELIGHT SEEING NICE INTELLECTUAL YOUNG MEN DISCUSS REALLY INTERSTITIAL AND WORTHWHILE SUBJECTS! GOD BLESS YOU BOYS! ❤
We do not have to live with anxiety depression or any mental illness or sickness or pain or anything bad like that God is a God of miracles He has the Power to Heal 😊❤❤❤
@@derrickia God is our Healer I pray that you get healed and freed from anxiety and depression and I hope you seek God read the Bible Jesus loves you and He wants to have a relationship with you He gives us a peace that surpasses all understanding and He helps to truly love and be happy 😊❤️
This video is making me realize I most likely have depression :/ i wondered why I cant get myself up in the morning and why every night I start getting extremely negative about my future fir no reason. Depression could explain thise things!
Honestly, it probably is depression, I feel like this all day every day, tired all of the time, not wanting to sleep, disordered eating, apathetic to doing things, being unable to focus on anything, that added with being insecure is a recipe for disaster because I’m still clutching onto my maths degree💀💀💀💀💀💀 On the plus side: I can say that always being conscious (sometimes painfully) of exactly what I’m doing/feeling at the time and also not blaming myself, does help with reducing some of the bad habits. Or even if it doesn’t, it’s easier to be proactive if you have a burst of ‘happiness’ when you are able to compartmentalise your thoughts. I wish you luck (:
you guys are the best. two of you, actually DISCUSSING, no unhumane monologue. practical to the BONE! reality, not *just* "do this and everything will be great". optimization, and rhythm. waves. activity, pasivity, and on many levels. spiraling up. :) one of "us". down to earth and only one REAL.
0:36 Family reunion hits home 😂😂😂😂. For all the talk about how family is more important than anyone lots of us know more of (and like) "outsiders" than them.
I have spent countless hours collecting music CDs and at least $7000-to 8000 on one hell of a stereo system but fell into the trap of playing video games to escape. Since quitting I have started going through my extensive CD library and feel so much better, less stressed and reactive.
This was so helpful! I love your mindset of distracting yourself from depression, and I will give a try to the method of "if nothing matters, then me doing sport is just as well as me sitting here". I'm a 100% or nothing type, but I think going through the motions will be something I'll have to try and do. Thanks!
I have something to add: Try finding out why they are passionate or so interested by this topic, without trying to change them in any way. Just hearing why they might find something meaningful can make you resonate with them more. If you have something to add, first compliment them, regardless what their plan is, then ask a critical question, rather than expressing your opinion about it. A question should be as objective as you can make it. Practice facial expression if you have a hard time making and reading expressions that fit the situation.
God... I wish that it was only depression that I'm experiencing! Really! I actually seem to have soo many mental health issues at the same time! And I'd have to deal with with the stupidity and ignorance of my culture.. Leave alone the fuckin stigma.. which I don't seem to care about. I can't function at all!
Even 4 years after this podcast was recorded and I still resonate with many of the things you talked about. Am definitely looking forward to watching some of your other videos!
Thank you so much. This is truly helpful. I have social anxiety and consistently overthink social situations. Hearing this is some of the best advice I have heard. Thanks again. xo
