Have you felt different the last 3 years? Like someone asks how you're doing and the honest answer is… tired, empty, and kinda numb. You sit down to work on the thing you KNOW is good for you, and your brain immediately starts screaming for anything else. "Pull out the phone. Scroll. Skip the gym..." So you're chasing anything that makes you feel something. And the worst part is you don't even want to be doing it. You just can't break the loop. This video breaks down exactly what's happening to your brain and 3 changes that brought my energy and motivation back.

The Psychology of People Who Are Ambitious, But Lazy The other week I asked my newsletter of 34k people "what's your biggest struggle right now?" The most common answer: "I know what I need to do, but I can't get myself to do it." This video is my answer to that. If you can't get yourself to take action, chances are it's not a laziness problem. It's something deeper. I'll break down the real psychology behind why smart, driven people stay stuck, the three actual reasons you procrastinate, and four things that genuinely work to get you moving.

And once you see it, you can't unsee it.

Quit Drinking Alcohol Timeline Day 0 to 365 (exactly what to expect)
Free newsleter + gift - https://www.clarkkegley.com/free-ques... Free shadow work Qs - https://www.clarkkegley.com/shadow-work My Best Journal Program - https://www.mybestjournal.com Dry January starts in a few weeks. It's the time of year when millions of people quit alcohol for 30 days. Most go right back February 1st. Four years ago, that was my plan too. But when I quit drinking, I liked the benefits so much that my 30-day challenge turned into 60, then 90, and now here we are: 1400 days later. Maybe you've noticed the drinking creeping up. Used to be weekends. Now it's most nights. You're wondering if that's concerning. Maybe you're getting older and starting to take your health more seriously. Maybe you're not a big drinker, but you want a challenge. I know a lot of you are into self-improvement. This is a habit that actually delivers. So in this video, I want to walk you through what happens when you quit. Day by day. Day 0 to 365. What the science says, what I actually felt, and most importantly, the stuff I wish someone told me before I started. Heads up: If you're a heavy drinker, check with a doctor first. Alcohol withdrawal is one of the few that can actually be dangerous. I'm just a guy who quit and wants to share what helped. Not a doctor.

Free newsleter + gift - https://www.clarkkegley.com/free-ques... Free shadow work Qs - https://www.clarkkegley.com/shadow-work My Best Journal Program - https://www.mybestjournal.com Quick Note: We got a deep one today, guys. I'm fully aware some people will see this and think "total first-world problems." But I'm making this video because burnout and losing your sense of purpose doesn't care how successful you look on paper. If you've ever felt lost even while things looked good from the outside, I know you can relate to this story. This is a story about two years that tanked my mental health, and how I finally got it back. I hope this helps you see your new future differently. THANK YOU Refusing to Settle, Clark

Letting Go: You'll Keep Suffering Until You Admit This
We all have things we still need to let go of...You're still bitter about what happened at the job you left three years ago. You're stalking your ex's Instagram at 11PM even though you know it's over. You're holding onto a version of yourself that doesn't exist anymore, and it's exhausting. We all hold on too long. And here's the paradox: the harder you try to force yourself to let go, the tighter you grip. So in this video, I'm breaking down the three real blocks that stop you from letting go. And the backwards solution that worked for me when nothing else did. 00:00 Letting Go 00:30 PART 1 - The Scale 03:40 Misconceptions 04:47 PART 2 - The Blocks 05:24 Block 1 07:47 Block 2 13:27 Block 3 15:23 Summary Get the 7 Shadow Work Questions to change your life (free gift for yt subs): https://www.clarkkegley.com/shadow-work The Best of Series | 10-years In The Making: • THE BEST OF - Clark Kegley | Top Videos on...

I QUIT New Age Thought after 1M Subs (why I'm NEVER going back)
Get on our free newsletter & get 11 questions to change your life now: https://www.clarkkegley.com/free-ques... Buckle up… we got a real one today! This is my experience with the new age movement. Some of you have been watching since this phase and wondered why I quit creating content in this space. Some of you have no clue what I'm talking about. Either way, I want to explain why I QUIT new age thought (things like 'manifestation' and 'the law of attraction') and why I deleted 10M+ worth of videos. And I want to let you in on the behind-the-scenes content/creator angle because I think a lot of people don't realize WHY so much content is created in this space, the massive incentives to keep creating it, and the incentives to never change your ideas. Hopefully you get something from this. Remember—one of the most 'spiritual' things you can do is give yourself the ability to change your mind, even if that means doing so in public! Cheers.
