00:00:01
stop wasting your time you know those
00:00:03
days when you wake up and you get
00:00:04
nothing done I had one of these a few
00:00:06
weeks ago so I woke up and I spent the
00:00:08
first two hours of my day in bed
00:00:10
scrolling on social media then I got up
00:00:13
eat breakfast then throughout the day I
00:00:14
just hopped from dopamine source to do
00:00:16
bean Source over and over again in this
00:00:18
Merry Go Round until end of the day
00:00:20
still feeling tired but having gotten
00:00:22
nothing done it's almost like post night
00:00:24
Clarity where after you end the day you
00:00:26
look back you're like man why did I
00:00:28
waste that whole day bro nothing
00:00:29
happened so this video is a full guide
00:00:30
on how I stopped wasting time sted
00:00:32
valuing my time which got me in good
00:00:33
grades helped me make money online grow
00:00:36
my YouTube channel and not be suicidal
00:00:38
in the process which is pretty
00:00:40
important I've put all the information
00:00:42
here just watch it all the way through I
00:00:43
think it'll really help
00:00:45
you first we need to talk about this
00:00:47
term that I'm going to keep on using Roi
00:00:49
return on investment this is like a term
00:00:51
that people like suits use for a
00:00:52
business where if you invest money into
00:00:54
a company if you put like you know $1
00:00:56
into a company you expect more money
00:00:58
back than you gave so so invest and then
00:01:00
you want something back which is your
00:01:02
return on investment so let's say you
00:01:03
put $1,000 into Apple when Apple began
00:01:06
now that probably has turned into a
00:01:08
million dollars if you put $1,000 into
00:01:10
nfts you're either a millionaire or
00:01:12
you're $1,000 in De right so instead of
00:01:15
money we can use this when it comes to
00:01:16
our time and so you know the phrase time
00:01:18
is money right when we invest time into
00:01:20
something we want a return on that time
00:01:23
we want to invest the least time
00:01:24
possible and get the most bang for a
00:01:25
buck and so some task are high Roi and
00:01:28
some task are low Roi and we just need
00:01:30
find which ones are high Roi and so the
00:01:31
way that I find out what's high and low
00:01:32
Roi is just by using a simple pros and
00:01:34
cons list and so let's take so let's
00:01:36
take my biggest time waster for example
00:01:38
which was Minecraft or video games in
00:01:39
general let's look at the pros and cons
00:01:41
of video games it's quite interesting
00:01:43
the pros of video games are things like
00:01:45
oh I I used to say this right I used to
00:01:46
cope and say oh I get to distress after
00:01:47
a long hard day this is probably what
00:01:49
you're thinking as well when you play
00:01:50
video games I get to distress I get to
00:01:52
play with my friends I get to level up I
00:01:53
get to have fun and these are genuine
00:01:55
Pros these are real pros I'm not trying
00:01:57
to Discount that but after 10,000 hours
00:02:00
on Minecraft 15,000 hours playing
00:02:02
Minecraft my life didn't change I
00:02:04
invested think about how much money
00:02:06
money I invested into the game and time
00:02:09
and I got nothing back I was in the same
00:02:11
position in life and that's because if
00:02:13
you look at the cons list it outweighs
00:02:15
the pros and because it outweighs the
00:02:16
pros it's almost like taking one step
00:02:18
forward five steps back one step forward
00:02:20
10 steps back and so really think about
00:02:23
it like money imagine putting $10,000
00:02:25
into something 10,000 hours into
00:02:27
something each coin represented 1 hour
00:02:31
of the day and you get nothing back no
00:02:33
return why would you spend her money
00:02:34
that way but then I realized and this is
00:02:36
the secret sauce I could get the pros
00:02:38
without the cons and you probably
00:02:40
wondering how right the way I did this
00:02:42
was through exercise because really
00:02:45
think about the pros and cons of like
00:02:46
exercise and sports I still get to play
00:02:48
after a long hard day but instead I'm
00:02:49
playing like basketball playing
00:02:50
something that I find interesting I
00:02:53
still get to spend time my friends cuz
00:02:54
if I play a team sport I need to
00:02:56
interact with other people but this time
00:02:57
in real life three I still get get to
00:03:00
level up but instead of leveling up in
00:03:01
game I'm leveling up in real life
00:03:03
especially if you do weightlifting when
00:03:04
you hit a new PR when you lift something
00:03:06
that you couldn't lift previously it
00:03:08
feels like you level up it feel like it
00:03:09
feels like we get achievement in
00:03:10
Minecraft or something right and so I
00:03:11
could get all the pros with a lot more
00:03:13
like increased cardiovascular health or
00:03:15
whatever right I'll put a whole list
00:03:17
here that you know I can get chat gbt to
00:03:18
give me and then the cons what are the
00:03:20
cons of exercise there nearly none like
00:03:23
maybe like body dysmorphia if you get
00:03:25
really into dieting you might get
00:03:27
injured um I don't know bro
00:03:31
steroid steroid abuse something like
00:03:32
that so there's like three or four
00:03:34
negatives with hundreds of Pros pretty
00:03:38
much everything you want in life better
00:03:40
focus better looks better um health
00:03:42
comes from exercise I could still have
00:03:45
those laughes I could still have fun I
00:03:46
could still spend time with my friends
00:03:47
but this time in real life and the extra
00:03:50
bonus which is after a whole year
00:03:51
instead of looking the exact same like I
00:03:53
did when I play Minecraft I will look
00:03:55
completely different and feel completely
00:03:57
different and so I want to destroy this
00:03:58
limiting belief that you might have
00:04:00
you're like oh there are some pros so
00:04:02
I'll continue doing the thing the thing
00:04:04
is we don't want to do the things that
00:04:05
give us some return we want to save our
00:04:08
time for the thing that gives us the
00:04:09
most return we want the most bang for
00:04:11
our buck when we spend money on
00:04:12
something we want to put in the least
00:04:13
money possible and get the most back so
00:04:15
why don't you do the same thing of your
00:04:16
time people will be so Frugal like oh no
00:04:18
I can't waste $5 on coffee because if I
00:04:20
spend $5 on coffee every day then after
00:04:22
a year I'll be over $1,000 but the thing
00:04:23
is those people will go home and then
00:04:26
continue to waste hundreds of hours in
00:04:28
their Year anyway was wasting money
00:04:30
hurts there's a study where they show
00:04:32
that when you actually have physical
00:04:33
money and you buy something with
00:04:34
physical money it hurts you more because
00:04:36
you see the money leaving you but if you
00:04:38
do like digital payment it doesn't hurt
00:04:40
because you can't see it and so I think
00:04:42
that's why we're so used and so normal
00:04:44
like it's so normal for us to waste time
00:04:46
and it doesn't hurt because when you
00:04:47
waste time you can't see it Go and so
00:04:50
wasting money hurts and yet we waste
00:04:51
hundreds of hours of our time the thing
00:04:53
about money is that you can always make
00:04:54
more money by with time once you invest
00:04:56
it once you waste time you can't get
00:04:58
that time back and so a little tip that
00:05:00
I can give you think about the activity
00:05:01
and think about playing it out over a
00:05:04
year five years 10 years cuz in the
00:05:06
moment it feels like oh no video games
00:05:07
are fine but if I increase the time for
00:05:10
5 years 10 years of playing video games
00:05:12
after the 10 years what have I gotten
00:05:13
from this what have I actually received
00:05:15
what's the return on my investment if
00:05:17
it's nothing then I know that okay in
00:05:18
the moment it feels good but it's not
00:05:20
actually a good activity to do it's not
00:05:22
actually High Roi all right so now that
00:05:24
you know what Roi means step two is how
00:05:26
to actually implement this in your real
00:05:27
life the thing is now that you know what
00:05:29
it means 90% of what you do in your day
00:05:32
is probably low Roi and so you have to
00:05:34
replace it the same way that I replace
00:05:35
video games with exercise and spots you
00:05:38
got to do something similar as well it's
00:05:40
and the hardest things to replace are
00:05:41
the things that have some Roi because if
00:05:44
something is no pros and all cons it's
00:05:46
easy to replace it and say okay I'm not
00:05:47
going to waste my time there but it's
00:05:49
those things that give you like two or
00:05:50
three pros and five or six cons so the
00:05:53
cons still outweigh the pros but you
00:05:55
continue doing it cuz you can only focus
00:05:57
on the pros after a year of 2 hours a
00:06:00
day on Tik Tok nothing changes but after
00:06:02
a year of 2 hours a day of extra sleep
00:06:04
of going to the gym of reading that has
00:06:07
a change that I can see after a year and
00:06:10
if it's 5 years it's even more if it's
00:06:12
10 years it's even more so I know that
00:06:13
those things give me some sort of return
00:06:15
so basically the results become more
00:06:17
apparent when you increase the time
00:06:18
scale so that's what I want you to
00:06:20
visualize when you're doing this
00:06:21
practice number three valuing your time
00:06:24
I feel like a lot of parents especially
00:06:25
like to say oh you should value your
00:06:26
time but they never go beyond that they
00:06:28
never explain okay what does value your
00:06:29
time actually mean for me I only started
00:06:32
valuing my time when I actually put a
00:06:34
value next to my time so let me explain
00:06:36
right the way that I calculated dat is
00:06:38
like this in 1 hour how much can I
00:06:40
output well this video I'm making right
00:06:42
now takes me about 20 minutes to make
00:06:44
obviously the full video you see on
00:06:45
YouTube is probably like 10 to 15
00:06:47
minutes but the full thing unedited me
00:06:49
sitting here is about 20 minutes so in 1
00:06:51
hour I can produce 20 minutes 20 minutes
00:06:53
20 minutes 60 minutes so I can produce
00:06:55
three videos in 1 hour those three
00:06:58
videos If
00:07:00
they get like let's say they get 30k
00:07:02
views um let's say get 30k views over
00:07:04
the lifespan of the video so if once I
00:07:06
upload it it's there it can continue to
00:07:07
get views forever right 30k views per
00:07:10
video combined together would be like
00:07:12
about 100K views well if I could get
00:07:15
100K views in 1 hour how much is 100k
00:07:18
views if you look on Google I can put up
00:07:21
like statistics it's probably like $500
00:07:23
or something but let's just go very low
00:07:25
let's say 100K views is $100 so why did
00:07:28
I do just do all this meth is not
00:07:30
because I want to flex on you it's
00:07:31
because that means in one hour I can
00:07:33
produce $100 of value and so that means
00:07:36
my hourly rate is $100 per hour that's
00:07:40
how you start valuing your time that's
00:07:42
the only time I was like oh my time is
00:07:44
actually worth something let me not
00:07:46
waste it cuz would you pay $100
00:07:49
to watch anime for an hour probably not
00:07:51
would you pay $100 to just play
00:07:52
Minecraft for an hour probably not and
00:07:54
so this is one of my biggest lessons you
00:07:55
only start valuing your time when you
00:07:57
put a dollar number next to your time
00:07:59
before that it doesn't mean anything
00:08:00
it's like saying become rich becoming
00:08:03
rich doesn't mean anything when you say
00:08:04
get a million dollars okay now we have a
00:08:06
goal to strive for it's like saying
00:08:08
become fit what does becoming fit even
00:08:09
mean oh lose 5 kog okay now we have
00:08:12
something you can strive for same thing
00:08:13
here if you say value at time it doesn't
00:08:15
mean anything when you put a dollar
00:08:16
number now it makes sense and so this is
00:08:18
like a little side point but also this
00:08:20
is why rich people have like chefs Maids
00:08:23
they have Cooks cooks and Chef mean the
00:08:25
same thing Fu you have uh drivers Pilots
00:08:27
right they have people to do stuff for
00:08:29
them cu think about it in a day you
00:08:31
spend probably like 1 hour cooking then
00:08:33
1 hour cleaning up over yourself um you
00:08:36
drive places probably 1 hour driving you
00:08:38
have to figure out the route you have to
00:08:40
if you travel a lot for business then
00:08:41
you have to spend hours in the airport
00:08:43
so they just give these tasks to other
00:08:46
people cuz if you spend 1 Hour 1 Hour 1
00:08:49
hour you spend like 4 hours imagine Elon
00:08:51
musk's time his hourly rate is probably
00:08:53
like a million dollar per hour so in
00:08:55
that 4 hours that he spends cleaning his
00:08:58
house he could have made millions of
00:09:00
dollars he could have put um more time
00:09:02
and effort into his business or whatever
00:09:03
he cares about and so that is why they
00:09:05
do that some some of it obviously is for
00:09:08
like the luxury and it's cool and you
00:09:09
don't have to worry about that stuff but
00:09:11
it's also just because they want to save
00:09:12
time CU they actually value their time
00:09:15
their time is too valuable to do those
00:09:16
tasks and so I think if you're young
00:09:19
even if you don't even have that much
00:09:20
success yet just startop valuing your
00:09:22
time at like $50 to $100 per hour cuz
00:09:25
that means like you wouldn't pay $100 to
00:09:27
play video games so you immediately
00:09:29
can't play video games but it's not like
00:09:30
you just stop right for me it was like I
00:09:32
still played a little bit but in the
00:09:33
back of my head I was like ah this isn't
00:09:35
really productive I know how much I can
00:09:37
get rid my time now why would I keep on
00:09:39
doing this and so it's a slow process
00:09:41
I'm not going to say like oh you value
00:09:42
this you do this right now and you'll
00:09:44
stop playing everything and you'll start
00:09:45
you know making $6,000 billion dollar
00:09:47
per second like no that's not how it
00:09:48
works yo it's anything rough here a year
00:09:50
ago I posted this video title why I hate
00:09:52
you if you make less than $100 for hour
00:09:54
and it's very similar to what I'm
00:09:55
talking about right now it's just that
00:09:57
back then I didn't have any audience I
00:09:59
had no skills I had zero doar made from
00:10:01
YouTube but I still deluded myself to
00:10:03
kind of believe that okay I am worth
00:10:05
this much and then over the year because
00:10:07
I deluded myself to believe that I'm
00:10:09
worth a lot I acted in ways that I would
00:10:11
only do high Roi tasks and that's what
00:10:15
led to the success and now I'm actually
00:10:16
making my $100 per hour $200 per hour
00:10:19
and so I think in some way you have to
00:10:20
fake it to make it so you can watch the
00:10:21
full video again it's up here um I'll
00:10:24
probably put it in the description as
00:10:25
well if you want or you can just scroll
00:10:26
on my channel so yeah back to the video
00:10:29
so just think okay my time is now worth
00:10:31
$50 an hour My Time is Now worth $100 an
00:10:33
hour now you're going to start valuing
00:10:35
your time more and then this last part
00:10:37
that I've written down here is like for
00:10:39
more advanced people but like one
00:10:40
limiting belief like one last one that I
00:10:42
want to talk about it's like oh if I get
00:10:44
all my work done that means that I can
00:10:48
like just chill afterwards and do low
00:10:50
Roi tasks imagine like Roi tasks is on
00:10:53
the Spectrum this is super high Roi this
00:10:55
is super low Roi and all the tasks kind
00:10:57
of fall in this Continuum so something
00:10:59
things are like kind of high Roi some
00:11:00
things are kind of in the middle some
00:11:02
things are low Roi something things are
00:11:03
super low Roi so it's kind of like this
00:11:05
right so a lot of people what they do in
00:11:07
their day and this might be you they
00:11:08
spend most of their day here they want
00:11:11
to get their work done they get the
00:11:12
to-do list done they get the good grades
00:11:14
they get like perfect attendance what
00:11:16
whatever and then at the end of the day
00:11:18
they go all the way here they're like oh
00:11:19
now I can play video games now I can do
00:11:20
all my low Ry task and watch anime for
00:11:22
like 5 hours and then sleep at 4:00 a.m.
00:11:26
that doesn't make those tasks High Roi
00:11:29
video games is inherently a low Roi task
00:11:32
anime is inherently a low Roi task they
00:11:35
don't give that much return on your
00:11:37
investment if I take it to the extremes
00:11:38
it's like those millionaires that say oh
00:11:40
I built a business that made me a
00:11:41
million dollars while smoking crack
00:11:43
every day like yeah that's good that you
00:11:46
did this you know super high Roi task
00:11:47
building the business but it doesn't
00:11:49
make the crack now highi it's doing
00:11:52
crack is still a low Roi task it's still
00:11:54
not good for you you could have just
00:11:55
built the business without doing the
00:11:56
crack and they almost see it as a flex
00:11:59
where where it's like oh yeah I did this
00:12:00
super successful thing super um hard
00:12:02
thing whilst enjoying myself but it
00:12:05
doesn't make this High Roi it's still
00:12:08
inherently not good for you and so I
00:12:10
think the more ambitious mindset like
00:12:12
level two is where you get your
00:12:14
done and the rest of the day you still
00:12:16
do high Roi tasks that you like for
00:12:18
example I get my done like I'm
00:12:19
going to record this video and that's
00:12:20
the highest Ro task today and then after
00:12:22
this I'm going to play basketball I'm
00:12:24
going to exercise I'm going to play
00:12:26
piano I'm going to hop on a call with um
00:12:28
my Community later tonight it's actually
00:12:31
High Roi throughout the day so I kind of
00:12:34
start my day with the highest Roi task
00:12:36
then the second then the third and the
00:12:37
fourth so I kind of go down that way I
00:12:38
don't do the highest Roi task then the
00:12:40
rest of the day I just do super low Roi
00:12:41
task it doesn't really make sense to me
00:12:43
I think that's very low ambition and you
00:12:45
can do that if you want just know that
00:12:46
the guy who just does high Roi tasks
00:12:48
every day will beat you yeah time is
00:12:50
money we spend it and we invest it so
00:12:53
this is one last thing I want to say um
00:12:55
I wrote this down in a community post a
00:12:56
while ago video Gamers will say time
00:12:58
enjoyed isn't wasted and that's true but
00:13:01
instead of time enjoyed why not have
00:13:03
your time invested and if you've done it
00:13:04
for long enough you'll know that time
00:13:06
invested becomes your new time enjoyed
00:13:09
when you do high R tasks for long enough
00:13:12
when you exercise for long enough study
00:13:13
for long enough you do this and it
00:13:14
becomes a habit you realize that it
00:13:16
becomes your new time andjoy you
00:13:17
actually start enjoying the tasks and I
00:13:19
can't go back I can't I feel like I
00:13:20
can't go back to video games anymore I
00:13:22
can't go back to watching movies every
00:13:24
day anymore because in the back of my
00:13:26
mind I know I value my time I know my
00:13:28
time is worth more than that
00:13:29
and so go do your Exo stats once this
00:13:31
video ends and the no red bar hits the
00:13:34
end of the screen I can't help you
00:13:35
anymore go do the EXO steps look at your
00:13:38
day look at the the ROI of the tasks
00:13:40
that you do write down the pros and cons
00:13:41
list and then replace the low Roi tasks
00:13:44
with higher Roi tasks go to that right
00:13:46
now take action view well my lamp is
00:13:49
