Nothing in life is that complicated, everything is just figure-out-able. Whoo!!!
My favourite lessons from this video:
1. "Everything is figurable" if you roll up your sleeve and actually get down to it
2. Perfect is the enemy of good. (Actually, perfectionism always holds me back from taking action. I'll bear it in my mind. )
3.' Go first'
Thank you Ali!!!
If we are continuously listen this man, he will upload a video titled 'how i become a man'
– 0 to 1
– Only watch T.V. with other people (I think this will apply to play video games too)
– Reitoff principle
I've been reading self help books but i've only heard this in your channel. Thank you for this.
what's the food in 2:46?
If you're depressed or a chronical procrastinator, careful with the Hell yeah or no thing. Very few thing will actually feel like a Hell yes when they actually are so and it may end up hurting more than helping
Ali – I just stumbled upon your content a couple of weeks ago (YT algorithm actually working) and really love your content. It’s quite good and useful. Thanks for what you do.
Ooh I love this vid. Watched tons of your vids… just found you. Great advice. Started on the finance. Brilliant stuff. More like this please!
Great video!!!

Life before death, strength before weakness, a journey before destination. And I really always think about the journey before the destination, like basically… With basically everything in life, it just is about the journey. It's not about the destination.
Just Woah…
I'm so glad he mentioned that nobody gets it perfect on the first try. Even I'm guilty of doing this sometimes lol, but I'm getting better at it 😁
LOOK YOU ARE A GREAT MAN BRO
I know it might sounds small but I was really struggling whether or not I should upgrade my iPhone XR to 12mini, looks like I should not do it after watching this video – thank u! 😂💖💖
Hi, Patrick from Mind Life Flow here…great advice that helps, over so many different aspects of one's life!
you should really wrie a book
my friend, I want to ask you if I take your video and dubbing it to the Arabic language and post it in my YouTube channel, are you eccept this or not, and is that legal
I love your coffee cup
About rule No9 check the Greek poet Constantine P. Cavafy – Ithaca
gratias
thanks so much for sharing this, it was really helpful..
is there a book about eliminating that idea of everything has to be perfect?
you are amazing. thanks for your great videos
I like 3 Cs rule, sounds productive to me.
Check out – 0:30
What about watching youtube by myself mhhh
You‘re fire! I really admire what you do!!!
I never thought about things this way, this was honestly really insightful!
1 rule that I must follow is being consistent. Something that really let's me down.
The most authentic advice anyone could get online. appreciate your work!
Great illustrations! Can I know the illustrator??
Great video Ali! I got a ton of inspiration and motivation from this one and enjoyed it from beginning to end.
Ever thing need to change some day
lots of good and simply repeated advices which I am thankful for like other majority of people here. But, wait a second, bro. Are you gettign questions like how are you such handsome and charismatic!!! I mean like, common man. Reduce the speed bro. you are already ok in many other aspects. I mean like media kinda ok.
straight to the point, very understandable, I like it thank you i was able to learn something from this
Everything is figure-outable. Yeah, it helps to have a sold start in life and not have to spend a huge amount of time learning to manage your trauma, and having to reprogram yourself.
I watched this video everytime i lose, i got Nebula and i dont see the extended version.
Eh, the “everyone is friendly” thing wouldn’t work in Eastern Europe or Russia haha.
People here actually often aren’t friendly and would absolutely give you a “wtf” look if you’re being awkward in their opinion. 😅
I just wanted to state that I think it's completely not reasonable that I'm already a Curiositystream subscriber, but because I am, and have been for a few years, I have zero access to Nebula and I CAN NOT get access to Nebula. Really makes me question supporting this business at all.
was alright
