I'm a productivity coach and it PISSES ME OFF how many of my clients are struggling with bad habits. And I don't blame them. Genuinely, our body is built for a world that no longer exists and it's destroying our lives. So the main issue EVERY ONE of my clients has gone through, including myself, is this: being unable to get out of a rut (stuck doing bad habits). And here's the fastest way to fix that. 📌 Storytime So in 2024, I was far along on my self-improvement journey, doing the good habits, meditating, reading, journaling, etc. I also didn't really do any bad habits. Only used Insta to text friends. No doomscrolling. Sugar detox. You get what I mean. Then, around July, my parents wanted to go to India. So we pack our bags, suitcases, etc, and head out to India for vacation. Now, I still did have some work I wanted to do in the summer, but as for YouTube, I was kinda covered (I recorded 12 videos before the 1-month trip). So I expected myself to relax a bit on work. So we go to the airport, check in and all that, and I'm just having fun taking nice pictures to post on Instagram. Eventually, we head on our flight and make it to India. A few days later, I'm enjoying India, eating snacks, having fun on vacation, but still doing my necessary work. And then one day, I open up Instagram on my phone. Accidentally, I click on a reel, and then start watching a bit. It's like "I'm on vacation, might as well enjoy a little." Some time later, I check the clock and realize 3 HOURS had passed. And keep in mind, I'm a disciplined, productivity machine. I don't do this shit... but even I had gotten addicted. The next few days I'm stuck scrolling 1-3 hours of Instagram EVERY DAY. I was in a rut. And unfortunately, there was no quick fix that saved me. Every day I was at home on vacation, I would scroll for at least 30m. Until 30 days later, we head on our flight back home. On the flight I'm prepping myself again saying how I'll be productive. I reach home, go to bed, and wake up the next morning. And here's the shocking thing. That entire day, I didn't scroll a single reel.
