I most certainly did not stare at my RU-vid subscribed refreshing every ten seconds for five minutes to make sure I got to watch this week's episode... No not at all....

As a kid whose dad worked too hard when I was growing up, I really appreciate the insight that Impulse brings in this episode. I would have loved for my dad to be more involved in my life when I was a kid. It took a really big loss to our family for him to see the fact that he was so distant from us that he didn't know us at all. Realizing that on your own is a very good thing and a wonderful pay off of growing as a person, realizing the mistakes you made without having to face them directly and then trying to fix them. Wonderful job as always

My dad is still this way and I can’t help but wish he’d realize how important his own health and well-being is, and how important it is to just sit at the table and talk with family, not on the phone to others who don’t value the fact that you can hear that he’s eating, but they’re gonna keep talking jjst so they can get their work done. The worst part is that he’s not what you’d really call young either, and I just wish we could spend actual time with him, without worrying that he’d get angry, and say we’re taking up time that he’d rather be working during

My college advisor added a third element. "Work hard, play hard, rest hard." All three in balance, because play is not rest, and the human body requires rest. Dang organic machines!

As a professor I completely understand the "performance" fatigue. I feel like I must bring an elevated energy to my lessons, regardless of my personal feelings or headspace. Then afterward, there is a definite sense of exhaustion and a need to recharge. I appreciate your insights and the battery analogy - definitely going to "borrow" that one to share with my students in regards to their own academic energy and motivation.

That very question that you asked yourself impulse is the one that changed my life and my outlook on life."Is the world going to come to an end if this doesn't happen?" The answer will always be no, but sometimes you waiver for a minute while your brain processes the implication. It was posed to me while I was in college stressing over studying for a test to the point that I wasn't taking proper care of myself.

My mom became a single parent after my dad died. She worked so hard for us 8 kids. I admired that and I've taken that on as a single parent. Both parents worked so hard. I marveled at the stories my grandparents told me about hard work. I really appreciate that you learned that lesson to work hard or be there as a father/husband for your kids. My mom found time to play with me and help me with projects. I was the youngest. I got more mommy time then my siblings. I will always remember that. I've taking on her example to raising my daughter. I tried not to get in that mindset of work/work/work. I learned that my daughter will remember the playtime I gave her. I'm grateful that I gave her that playtime. Some of her peers didn't get what she got. "Love is What They'll Hear. Isn't it about time?" This was my favorite PSA commercial growing up and it stuck with me. Lately I've been struggling with my go get em attitude. I needed to hear this one. Thank you.

Growing up my dad worked long hours during the week to provide for the family. Even though I did not see him most of the week, he still made time on the weekends to gives us kids time with him. He taught me more about how to be a loving husband, a loving father, and to be a truly good person, than I could have asked for. Just how he lived his life was a great example.

This one was amazing! I was just talking about the concept of Hard Work with my parents and Grandparents the other day, and my mom told me about how my grandma used to complain about my mom’s generation and how they don’t know how to work hard. And now my mom complains about my generation about not knowing how to work hard. And it’s very interesting because, like you said, the idea of hard work evolves. All three of us have very different circumstances in the way that we work. My mom had more physical hard work while I have more mental hard work. Just because I’m not having to do anything physical work doesn’t mean that the work I’m doing isn’t hard. It’s just a different kind of hard. I used to always feel like if I’m not having to do every single kind of hard work, then I have it easy, but that’s not the case at all. Been a full time university engineering student with up to five classes everyday is just as hard, if not harder than working a 10 hour heavy lifting and delivery job everyday. It’s just a different kind of hard. I really enjoyed this one and it really validates how a feel about my type of hard work. Thank you guys

Hard Work is a concept that I'm very familiar with right now. My dad let out two dogs that weren't supposed to be let out together and long story short, I've been raising a litter of puppies for the last 8 weeks. Blood, sweat, tears, urine, and poo have been dealt with, we lost two puppies (failure to thrive, nothing we could have fixed) and I've had very little sleep and minimal time to do much outside of caring for them. And they're staying until they're 12 weeks. There is no work that is equally hard and rewarding as raising a litter of puppies properly using Puppy Culture and sending them home to their forever families. Knowing you've done everything you can do to ensure these puppies are well prepared for a happy life with their family. But... Cleaning poop and urine constantly, washing laundry several times a day, hemorrhaging money for supplies, food and toys, vaccines and dewormer, registration paperwork, and everything else is just... A lot. It's not for the faint of heart or small of bank account. But I love it. Regardless of this litter not being planned, it's not my first go-round and won't be my last. I love being a good breeder who cares deeply for my dogs and their puppies and who does her best to produce puppies that are for a purpose: Service Animal work. I take these puppies and train them to help disabled people like myself. It's a lot but it gives me purpose.

Another good one! I learned from my husband that work hard needs to be balanced with play hard. I'm glad we met when I was only 21. He's always at all the kids' events. He's always there to play catch or program something together. He and I get hours of gaming together. And at the same time, his coworkers always know they can count on him, during work hours. Thanks for reminding me what a great catch I have in my husband! ❤

This podcast hit close to home. Especially Impulse's battery analogy. If I care about something, I'll give 110% But lately, I've barely been running at 50% Part of it is the job, but at lot of it is that I'm burned out and haven't had time to fully unplug and recharge. Great podcast! (And as usual, I listened to the audio first and now I'm back for the video ;)

I'm a poor college student who needs to take a bus to buy groceries. The whole process takes about the length of an Imp and Skizz podcast, so I've made it a tradition to listen to the podcast while I shop. Normally I do this with Spotify, but I had to come over to RU-vid to leave a comment. I really needed to hear the gruesome story from Skizz at the end. I know there was some uncertainty about whether to share it or not, but if not for anyone else, I needed to hear it. I've been prioritizing school work above all else for the past few months and that story made me realize that my unwillingness to have balance in my life and take breaks is actually a form of self-sabotage. My productivity has been going down. I keep telling myself that if I just work harder, it won't be a problem, but I don't think that's true. I'm at my limit. This podcast made me realize that I need to take care of myself to expand my capacity to work instead of beating myself to the ground. I understand things best through comparison, so Skizz's story really drove the point home for me. Thanks for doing this!

Skizz, i appreciate your vulnerability in your story so much. Not to get too detailed, but i had a similar experience in middle school that led to me pissing my pants in class. That haunted me for years. But eventually i got away from it, and that helped me actually process and deal with it. This was a great reminder and lesson. Greatly appreciate you and hopefully this helps others who have been there or are there.

Great podcast as always. I totally get the battery analogy that Impulse mentioned. I'm a teacher at a community college and part of teaching is being "on" for every second you are with your students. I can be having the worst day but when my students come into class I'm always happy they are there and it is part of my job to let them know that. When class is over and all the students are gone, I am done. I've recently committed to taking a few moments after class to close my eyes and breathe and recharge my battery. You guys are awesome. Thank you for all the hard work you do both on the podcast and on your streams.

Growing up Hard Work was my family's life style, I grew up on a Dairy farm (we didnt own) so we were up at 4am every day to feed calves, after feeding the calves would head to school and my parents would head to work, typically my dad would head out earlier as he was a Roofer, my mom was a housekeeper at a near by hotel. Then, after Work/school we would go back to feed calves again. And sometimes we would be out irrigating feilds tell 10 or 11 pm. So, long days were the norm for us. in the summer, I often helped my dad Roof in Northern CA, so very hot. But let me tell you having worked physically demanding work my entire life, doing tree work, trail work firefighter, now maintenance Mechanic when ever I was tired or sore I was just thankful I wasn't on a roof. I don't understand how my Dad has done it his entire life he is now 56 and is doing concrete. He is by far the hardest worker I have ever met.

You guys motivated me to go to college and I'm working a survival job while looking at a great future hopefully in the next few years. You two are so uplifting and motivating. I dont know where I'd be right now if it wasn't for you.

I do completely agree that people just need a break some times. I repair furniture for commercial warranties. I work six days a week, driving 4 to 6 hours a day going from house to house trouble shooting, and repairing all types of furniture in customers' homes. It's physically and mentally exhausting. To the point where I've come home and spiked fevers without any other symptoms of illness simple because my body is telling me to quit burn the candle at both ends. But in the end, I've always told myself that I would do whatever, and put my body and mind through whatever it took to provide for my wife and kids. And with six kids, that's a LOT of providing for.....That aside, I can't say it enough that I love these podcasts and I hope you both keep at it for as long as you can, too many episodes have almost felt like therapy for me, Thank You Both.

I am a firm believer that work is necessary to well being. Not just financially but also for mental health. That being said I also believe that human beings need one hour per day (when possible), one day per week, and one week per year to rest and recharge. This is not always possible but it should be our aim. Also, my children are all grown now and they are the most important things in my life. I would gladly drop whatever I am doing just to spend time with them. They are far more important to me than anything else on this planet.

As a kid, & an adult now, I really appreciate all the hard work my mum put in for me and my brother. She was a solo parent after our dad walked out on us. And she went through hell and back, but she worked some crazy hours two jobs at one point. And she inspired me to get my first job when I was at high school and to stay at school and work so I could help her. & Before that every school holidays I'd go to my grandad's house to work with him & he too was a hard worker he didn't stop till he was 70 somethin And my mum was amazing to do all that to for us 2 kids and work with no help from my father, till this day and seeing all that growing up. To me my mum & grandad were a soldier and just I looked at that keep pushing myself so my kids understand. Teaching sports can be very hard work I taught a softball team at school and used to go to a primary school to teach basketball and T-ball in between everything. Because I had great role models. Guys I love these podcasts and you guys talk about so much awesome stuff and real life stuff values . It's definitely awe inspiring stuff you guys talk about just pure awesomeness. ✌️😊

But Skizz your talking about getting to how hard it is to care even when you like what you do sooo hit home. Impulse you are right on with the battery metaphor! If I don't recharge somewhere else, a job I love becomes torture. Very important to know about yourself and understand.

Great episode. Teaching my kids to work, real hard work, is hard work! But so important to do. Making time to recharge my battery isn’t easy, but sometimes work can recharge your battery. Hear me out. Feeding people is my “love language”, so making a big healthy meal (which is work!) can also recharge my battery…especially when my kids thank me afterwards. And Skizz, your story may have been embarrassing for you to tell but it was relatable to everyone on this planet. It wasn’t uncomfortable to hear and maybe it’ll inspire someone to speak up and explain to their supervisor why they may not be able to give their all today. I was thinking of podcast ideas: guilt (good and bad), favorite games (solo, friends, family), honesty (sometimes it is hard, but always the best; white lies-ok or bad?), having a family/kids, positives (outweigh the negatives), aliens (just a fun one, is there life out there besides us, and what could it look like). Appreciate all your hard work! See ya next week!

Gonna comment before I forget. To me, there is work that is difficult and there is work that is *hard*. Difficult work I came across all the time and I had to put in a little effort to complete it, but in general, you could get by without putting in *hard* work. And when you separate it like that, I can really only think of 2 occasions in my life where I have put in properly hard work. The first was at Goalkeeper training. I was a goalkeeper in football here in the UK as a teenager. And my trainer did these things called “Death days”. Where everyone who came did nonstop training for 4 hours straight. No breaks. Nothing. It honestly felt like running a marathon. Although I haven’t done that so I don’t have the proper comparison to make. But my trainer, Aidie, there was something about his personality where it just felt really good whenever you did something well and he praised you. He used to call me twinkle toes because of one of the tasks we had to do with our footwork I was generally the fastest at it (may have also been the fact that I was one of two girls who went there, and I did ballet, but I chose to ignore that). And it just felt super good to have him congratulate me when we finished some form of training. And at the end of those 4 hours when I could go home and have a bath and rest. It felt amazing. But you really had to push through on a Death Day. The other time was when I was doing my Computer Science GCSE. My teacher was an arsehole. But he was good at teaching, I actually learned something in the first year of the course. But not long into the second year he had to leave, and there was no substitute computer science teacher. We had one of our maths teachers try to teach us but he really wasn’t an expert. So, we had to teach ourselves. Most things in school academically came rather easy to me. But this was not one of them. I really really had to try super hard to teach myself the syllabus in the absence of a proper teacher. And I managed to scrape a B. Which considering I didn’t have a proper teacher for the last year of the course is pretty darn good. But that is probably the hardest I have ever worked academically.

Skizz, that story is an important lesson on just being able to say “hey, I am sick” and taking care of yourself so you can work hard. I am at a point in my life where I can’t work hard because as a female in firefighting/EMS I refused to let my coworkers know when I really needed help, that and a drunk driver when I was driving an ambulance, long story, but take care of yourself!

I think a distinction should be made between "hard work" and "working hard". In my experience (limited as it may be) hard work while sometimes draining is often necessary but working hard, at whatever it might be is what is truly fulfilling no matter how hard that work is.

Sometimes it feels like the universe just wants me to understand something. This podcast fit the theme of this week so well. Between the conversations I have had directed at me by managment at work, my parents, my friends, and me to me all being themed around the idea of work life balance/ working to hard and not having the energy or desire to do anything else/ not being able to care about anything because I'm so hyper focused on working hard to "be better than the guy next to me" this hit really hard. I guess I need to take the time to get myself sorted.

I’m in college, to me hard work has just been put your head down, do the assignments, and hope you get good grades on tests. The thing is, it’s never felt difficult, just tedious. But it builds up over time and I get burnt out, but you can’t stop otherwise you need to play catch up while keeping up. I know if I talk to my family about it they’ll give me a lecture about how my older siblings worked their asses off and tell me to stick it out. Sorry for the rambling, I just wanted to get this out in some way

I feel you skizz. Even though I took some breaks, I feel the same about my dayjob. Occasionally, I get motivated about functionality I'm adding to several kinds of systems, especially when users tell me it's the best thing ever. Other than that, I'm about 20-30% charged, and don't really care. On the bright side, I work from home most of the time, where I also work my own business at the side. That's when I get motivated :D
@applepeachbirdduckmaster801
One thing to keep in mind, Skizz, you can give yourself a break, or your body will demand one. One is going to be much longer and brutal, and may not be able to bounce you back up as high. You have MS, I have my variety of chronic health issues. Your body *will* keep the score, please try not to let the score bite you in the bum later.

So far this is hitting close to home; I fought so hard at work to claw out a space for myself and define new processes, then just hit that wall and decided to only do what I was asked. Now it's a constant drain instead of something I feel accomplished after completing. Probably need to find another outlet to start putting hard work into again.

What Skizz described at 38:00 is exactly me now. I took a vacation three weeks ago and I'm already burnout. My interest in the job has waned so drastically since the last year but the work continues to mount so my inner ethics doesn't let me give up. But at what cost?With elderly parents, I feel so guilty when they ask for help and I consider saying I'm busy with work but we've only got so much time in life so I choose my parents.

Okay, so I normally just listen to this as a podcast from my phone, but I HAD to jump on here and comment this time. It's directed at Skizz and his whole "low battery" state. In one of the earlier episodes, on parenting to be specific, Skizz said "say yes to your children, within reason." I took that advice to heart and my son and I are doing so many more fun things together and building a much better relationship since that episode dropped. So thank you for that, truly, it has changed a lot in my life. However, while it is important to say yes to them to build those memories, it is JUST AS, IF NOT MORE, important to say yes to yourself, within reason of course. As working adults our lives become so flooded with obligations, work, paying bills, medical issues, pets, and as someone with 6 pets myself I can relate to your petting zoo, as well as many other things. Just tell yourself yes a little more often, you work hard and you deserve the time to chill every once in a while. The world will keep spinning with or without you answering those emails or being in those meetings. Much love to both you and Impulse. Keep on keepin' on my dudes!

customer service and working in a restaurant (whether it be fast food or a la carte) is extremely mentally and emotionally demanding work, along with being physically demanding (standing for 6 hours with minimal breaks). seeing my paycheck come in and my savings account grow and being able to live in my own apartment makes it all worth it

I totally knew what Skizz was talking about when he mentioned the "sub fabs". I've been there, at both facilities, except I was a green badge. I was really fascinated with all the technology, but green badges are treated like garbage there.

y'know Skiz, I think you and I share a lot of the same work ethic, and what you're describing about intel was the start of my decline at my old job. I was very good, the boss would've basically given me whatever I wanted to keep me, but I was so exhausted and honestly, just plain bitter about working there. I knew I had to get a new job. I have to take pride in what I do, and I have to do good quality work, and I wasn't able to maintain that anymore, and for my own sanity I knew I had to go out on as close to a high note as I could in order to not hate myself for showing up just to do an awful job one day.

I agree with everything you guys are saying 100%. The sad part is for most of the world burnout can't happen or if it does you just have to deal with it because most people can't stop working to go on vacation, can't afford to go to a nice place for vacation or like so many of the big RU-vidrs where they just take a year off or 6 months off or or even one month off just cuz they're suffering from burnout. I feel like it's giving the younger generations this idea that if they just wake up and they're just tired that they deserve to take off for a month because they're burned out. Never mind the fact that obligations have to be filled, to your family, to your bills and also to your employers.

I just recently transfered stores and departments within the same company. I went from being one of the best people with very high senority, to being on the same level as new hires in both skill and height on the totem pole. Being at this company for seven years in my previous department meant there were only a few people who had been there longer than I had. But now it's completely flipped and the next oldest employee under me is only a year old. It's a big adjustment and I feel like I have to prove myself all over again. Plus I hate to suck. Especially when people are depending on me. The worst part? I was hoping the move would change things up so I could be reinspired to like my job again; I still hate it. And now I am unskilled at it, too. So the new goal is to work towards doing something that I love and figuring out the best way to do it. It's a long way off yet and there's a ton of things on my plate right now, but I can't get stuck here. I won't. It will kill my soul. So here's to keeping the hope alive!

I'm a Burnout Coach and the amount of "oh, that's burnout" sentence I'm hearing in this one is startling. You're not heading toward burnout, Skizz -- that lack of motivation, that feeling like your battery only reaches 30%, the not knowing how to stop/take a break -- that IS burnout.

Skizz is right in this: if you don’t care about doing your personal best, you’re only “filling space”, and that is, indeed, soul sucking. The key to job satisfaction is, mostly, addressing every task as a personal challenge.

Thanks, Skizz, for your story. Surely wasn't easy to tell but I'm glad you didn't edit it out. And I hope you really sendt that link to your uncle because he should know (imo) what you did to try and make him proud and how you felt. And don't worry about the embarassing part too much, everbody has been in a similar spot at least once. Those things are our nature, everyone knows them, everyone does them. There is actually no rational reason to feel embarassed over them. And thanks for your "improvement" to the clock setting, I'm much happier about your variation than the minute-wise solution (now I don't have to squint that hard xD )!

This one is gonna be intresting as I'm still trying to get my first job. The hardest part is getting a job itself. Whatever is thrown at me after i have a job is gonna be a cakewalk compared to the emotinal agony it's been trying to get one. 45:47 I'm very much the opposite way. I would easily leave work if someone needs me or want's to do stuff. No matter how important money is it will never be worth more than time spent with people who matter to you. Don't get me wrong, if i do work I'd do it to the best of my ability but i can't say "no i have to work" because that's just not how i function. 1:01:33 for me my recharge is being around other people, hanging out and having fun.

This one hits too hard so I’m gonna have to come back and finish it later. I had some semblance of natural talent as a kid. So everyone assumed I was working hard when I was just skating by. And because of that, I can probably count on one hand the amount of times in my life I’ve actually put in hard work. And I honestly don’t know how to properly do it. Everyone had such high expectations of me as a kid because I had some natural talent academically. They thought I’d be a doctor or a physicist or something. But natural talent can only take you so far. And when I hit that wall where I had to actually work hard to climb it. I faltered. I never went to Uni because I flopped my A Levels. I’m now a delivery driver and it’s good work. But every time I see someone who knew me when I was in school and I tell them what I do now I can see in their eyes the questions, “How did you end up here?”, “Why didn’t you go to Uni?”, “Why aren’t you in a job that uses your smarts?”, “What went wrong?”. And it hurts.

I suggest you do whatever makes you happy if you know what’s best for your worth and do it even if you have to fight your manager because let me tell you something if they fire you they’re losing out on their best employee and I don’t think they will fire you because I think they like to brag about you and secret without letting you know so in reality keep doing what you know you have to do and you will be rewarded 37:46
