Why I'm (Almost) Never Tired 

Yep definitely. If I manage it right, it also makes me FEEL better, I think!

I'm glad this made sense! Something I find in particular is that if I have a writing project and an editing project on, I'll get bored of one but be in the mood for another. And I agree on sleep! There's a lot of financial incentive for people to make stuff complicated (and I'm lucky that I've never REALLY struggled with sleep), but I really don't think it needs to be too in the weeds.

Much love back to you, my friend! Please keep it up, and drop me a line if there's anything you'd like to see me cover.

What’s c addiction?

Amazing! Great to have you on board, Dave. Shout if there's anything you'd like to see me cover.

My pleasure! Give me a shout if there's anything I can help with!

Nice!

Thank you!

Nice to hear from you, Callum!

Thank you, Craig - trying to keep it less prescriptive and more positive, glad it's working

Thanks for letting me know! Glad it was helpful

Thanks, J.J. I'm still working on a lot of this stuff, but it actually helps me out to document what's working for me

One small thing at a time, my friend. The smaller the better!

Tap into that self hatred for self motivation. That’s what helped me to get to self love.

Thanks for sharing. Keep hope alive. You can get out of that zone.

Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it

I'm so pleased to hear this, thanks for the comment!

I've got a kid! It does make things tougher, I agree

Haha where is Jagger from? I was born near Manchester, raised in York, then bounced around all over England. Thanks for the comment!

​@@JoelSnape1I am going to live in York for a year. It is a wonderful place.

Sorry, yeah - I didn't clarify this very well. What I mean is that on my work projects and hobbies, I keep track of where I'm at and what my day to day plan is, so that I don't have to waste any brain-time on going 'Oh what was I supposed to be doing here' and it's easy to just jump in. So eg for work I have a spreadsheet of the newsletters and videos I have planned, and what the next steps are for each (eg finish the script, film the video, research one thing etc) and for hobbies I have the things I'm trying to improve at (each at BJJ it's leglocks right now, so the next thing is to watch a bit of leglock instructional and take notes every night)

It really is, I could do a whole video on it

Thank you! What resonated most, if you don't mind me asking?

@@JoelSnape1 The playful practice. I've often found that practice is unsustainable particularly with an instrument like violin if done in a regimented way. It's better to approach sections as if you are simply trying to extract the most resonant sound out of every note by toying with the contour rather note for note. I also find practicing in micro-bursts more fun.

what are the most important daytime habits for you that affect your sleep? :)

@@timon844 Hard to say since I don't really optimize my sleep (if anything, I'm probably disturbing it), instead I just try to optimize my day and a good sleep follows. I don't know if it's because I feel more accomplished and less like I've wasted my day, but I can't remember a time when I've just had a decent day but slept badly afterwards, and I can definitely remember the opposite when I've spent a day distracting myself. And in terms of optimizing a day - just doing something healthy for yourself (movement, exercise - I don't always like going out for a walk, but I ALWAYS feel much better when I do). Having some productivity system in place to get stuff done, learning things, having hobbies, learning languages, etc. Less/no social media. I don't go super deep into productivity but I like learning new things however I can and always feel pretty good after that. Mindfulness is also a big one, regular meditation and taking things more slowly and being aware as much as you can. All that helps with alleviating stress and giving a purpose to what you do which are all good for you 👍

I wish I could try it, but I simply love bread too much.

@@JoelSnape1 I can't blame you, they are made addictive because our collective food sources have made us sugar dependant.

Agree to the point that I couldn't get to sleep after being up for 18 hours. Added carbs to get to sleep.

One day I'm gonna find an excuse to interview Greg Souders

Yep yep!

Haha, I still get tapped a fair bit (because I make sure I go with the toughest people, but also because I put myself in bad spots)! If I learn something, that's a win for me.

@@JoelSnape1 Me too. I train with monsters, there's no such a thing as a day not being tapped :p

You can always just turn the subtitles on, my man 😅
