Has anyone else been watching self help videos since 2020? There was a lot of improvement since but if there's anyone who's like me, come on guys. We're lying to ourselves, watching another video to escape reality.<br><br>It's harsh but true, you already have enough knowledge but every time you click on another video, you become the library of Alexandria, lost, neglected knowledge to time and circumstance until a disaster strikes.<br><br>Please, you're doing well, I'm proud of the progress you've made but you've learned enough

I'm literally watching this video to avoid working on a project. The algorithm is reading my mind.

Here’s what made a real difference for me: taking a solo trip, writing down and challenging every limiting belief, and reading Obsidian Mindset of Becoming by Dorian Hale. It's one of those rare books that doesn’t just explain everything, but really help you go through.
