In 2023, I made the very difficult choice to give up my leisure outside of work (reading, TV, movies, etc.) to study for my Series 7 and 66 to become a Financial Planner. Reading isn't a bad habit - it's a great one! So why would I stop reading? Much like what Thomas discussed in this video - it did not support my goals for the end of the year. I worked hard, and I passed! Now I can read all I want because I temporarily made the difficult choice to eliminate something I love to make my life easier and hit my goals.

Thanks, my guy! Took a lot of work. Anyone can absolutely do the same. A year ago, I had no motivation or drive. Once you find a goal you really connect with - go all in, and you will be unstoppable. Vision is what drew me in. I learned (for me) that I'll always have time after the thing to do the things that I love. But now I feel much more fulfilled reading Lord of the Rings without having all the guilt I had before knowing I still had this goal, but making no progress towards it.

I love learning languages and in the past years I've learned English, Spanish and Italian. This year I'm learning French and I've been struggling with it because I really need to grow my business and there's so many things I need to do on a daily basis that I have no time to study French as I wanted. In addition, I'm not achieving what I want for my business this year. Watching this video made me realize that, yeah, I enjoy learning languages this is one of my passions but it isn't helping me to build my business and it needs to be pause. It hurts, but it's the best decision. Looking at my carrer and business right now, English is the language that will help me throughout this process of building my product and business growth. Besides, there's other good thing that I need to cut temporarily from my life to achieve my goals for this year. Thank you, Thomas!

Hey, Thomas! Quite the video that hits home for me as a person that just started their UKposts channel about a week ago and has other side projects that they are working on . I can definitely relate to the working too much part, especially on the weekends when I have more free time and not constrained by the usual 9-5 job. Framing the journey of getting there as the challenge is a great way to put it. Remember, sometimes the delay in getting results is always there for a reason.

It's odd seeing a Thomas vid getting 38k in 3 days. One of the best youtubers to ever exist in this genre. But It's probably because of his decision to change the main focus off that channel to his other channels. and other areas. But anyways, huge respect for this guy.
@Thomasfrank
@Thomasfrank 3 місяці тому
It's picking up :) But I also don't worry about it so much. I took a 2-year break, so a lot of my original audience likely moved onto other interests. From the algorithm's perspective, my channel is in the middle of building a new one (though some people have likely still stuck around!) Subscriber count is also a weird metric. It's almost like counting the amount of money that has ever entered your bank account, rather than the amount that's still there.

You're in luck! We're working on videos about both of those things. I'm reading The Lean Startup right now, and chapter 9 has just about the best argument against perfectionism I've ever read. That whole book is a fantastic cure for perfectionism, honestly, but chapter 9 in particular. So we're working on a whole video about it! Working on a video about distraction as well. I'll spoil that one up front: I deleted social media from my phone - no blockers, no time limits, just fully deleted it all. Worked wonders. It's so simple, but we often don't take seriously enough the effects of having access to social networks at all times.

That’s amazing I came across this video because I literally mare a rough outline yesterday of exactly how you are goal setting 😁😁 except I use mind maps and keep asking myself questions of the bigger goal for example. extrinsic broad goal: I want to read more books Okay why do you want to achieve it? What are you going to do to achieve your goal? Where will you find these books? what type of books will you read? insert more questions… I feel like the biggest thing when it comes to achieving goals is understanding the clarity of why, how and what. 😁

@@thelifewithnate yessir especially goals that don’t necessarily or have to be smart or specific because I focus on the underlying reason why I want to achieve the goal. I don’t necessarily want to read 10 books within year, I want be more knowledgable without allocating my time towards using my phone for that knowledge. I don’t want to go on a mile / 1 km run, I want to improve my cardiovascular health. It gives you a bird eye view of what you are trying to achieve and then i’ll break it down into smaller smart goals and track my progress through achieving those goals

Definitely noticed some 7 Habits and Atomic Habits influence. Maybe 4DX too? Do you see having learned to code as a valuable asset in overseeing your team?
@Thomasfrank
@Thomasfrank 3 місяці тому
Yes! I think it was very, very valuable for me to have done. I was listening to a talk by one of the AirBnb founders the other day, and he mentioned that a lot of founders code a bunch in the beginning and then eventually stop when the company grows and they hire (and oversee) more talented developers. At that point, their focus naturally has to shift toward building processes and the company as a whole. That's the point I'm at now. Still kinda sucks because I really do enjoy the puzzle-solving aspect of coding - but having gone through a think-week and the process I described in this video, I'm come to see building the company itself and navigating the adventure of building a new product as puzzles of their own. As for influences, they're likely there unconsciously - I've read both AH and 7H! Don't know what 4DX is though.

@@Thomasfrank Thanks for the great response. 4DX is a great companion to 7 Habits, written by Steven Covey's son, Sean Covey.

Don't threaten me with a good time :P On a more serious note - I don't have 3 guitars per room, but one "dumb" decision I did make years ago was to ignore the guitar-store guy's advice to keep my guitars in a case with a humidifier. I keep them all out, all around the house. Yes, they'll dry out and warp a few years sooner - but I get way, way more hours of playing time out of them.

May I ask, is what you're saying true? I've noticed there are always changes.

I've been creating content for 10+ years, so I've gone through many life changes and learned a lot over that time. Totally possible that you'll watch two videos from me, published years apart, that have different takes.

I consider Thomas Frank as an undisputed expert in the field of learning; his videos stimulated me to write the computer program Focus on a task in the c# language, presented on my UKposts channel, which helps me, first of all, focus on the task. But the ideas themselves were certainly emphasized, incl. and from a video by Thomas Frank. 👍💪💫

We are indeed moving! I've been on the fence for years; sitting down to do this exercise and seeing it pop up multiple times clinched it.

Hey Thomas I've been your subscriber for at least 9 years now. Idk why but I've never been able to finish any of your videos. When you speak do you read out of a screen? Your content is amazing it's just that I think the way you interact with your audience needs more emotion, and gestures. Just feedback

I think a summary at the end would also help, sort of signaling it's the end of the video. This video doesn't really have an end...

Good feedback! I don't use a teleprompter, but honestly I'm quite nervous in front of a camera when I'm recording a video that will be published later on. Still working on that, even 10 years later! Oddly, I don't feel nearly as nervous when I live stream. The stream archives on Thomas Frank Explains are how I wish I could speak when recording normal videos 😅
