maybe we can help each other out....or at least put our intentions out in the aether.

Lately I’ve realized I’m stuck in a loop that I can’t seem to break. I waste time, then feel guilty about wasting time. After that I try to suddenly “fix my life” by becoming disciplined, productive, organized, motivated etc. I stay consistent for a few days or weeks, then slowly fall back into old habits again. Most of my days go into consuming random content, scrolling, YouTube, entertainment, overthinking my future, comparing myself with others, and avoiding the actual work I know I should do. The strange thing is I’m fully aware of what I’m doing, but still can’t seem to stop it long term. I think a big part of it is fear of failure, fear of wasting more years, and using distractions as an escape from uncomfortable emotions. My brain now craves fast dopamine and deep work feels mentally exhausting even though I genuinely want to build something meaningful with my life. I’ve watched productivity videos, tried routines, discipline systems, time management tips, dopamine detoxes, etc. but I always end up falling back into the same cycle. Has anyone genuinely broken out of this kind of loop before? What actually helped you: - emotionally - mentally - practically Especially if you were someone who kept restarting over and over again.

This 22min video will be all about IDENTITY SHIFTING... i'm looking to narrow down my title for my next video, i'm kinda doubting the one saying "I'm not not a morning person" as it might be too specific. Becoming a morning person is kind of story vehicle to the video, but the core of the message is about changing limiting beliefs. let me know your thoughts....which one peaks most curiosity to you?

Is there a way to find out how much time we spent on socials over the year? (Specifically IG) I’m trying to see how far I’ve come since the detox in 2024. I’m trying to push my next video dropping soon and that means I’m spending way more time than usual on IG…but it’s still very cute numbers. 😅 compared to what I used to do!

https://youtu.be/NW2A-hqumaE What if becoming a morning person isn’t about discipline…but identity? I used to wake up and immediately reach for my phone. Doomscrolling felt automatic. Mornings felt like something other people had figured out. This video (dropping soon) is about the clunky, imperfect side quest of shifting from phone-addicted night owl to someone who actually looks forward to sunrise. It started as an experiment, turned into a ritual, then became something deeper, a story about environment design, community, habit change, and the strange way identity forms through repeated action. Somewhere along the grind, I started realizing that transformation doesn’t happen by becoming a different person overnight…it happens by showing for yourself. If you’ve ever felt stuck in loops of distraction, struggled to change a habit, or wondered how people reinvent themselves, this one’s for you. What identity are you trying to grow into right now?
