3 Habits That (Actually) Changed My Life

The input-output approach you talked about helps so much not only with moving the needle, but also with healthier attitude towards mistakes, doesn't it? We can tell ourselves: 'It's not a mistake, it's an output' - and reach towards new input to improve, rather than getting stuck.

“I get so much more input just by putting something out.” Simple yet profound. Great vid, thx!

I usually skip "habit" videos as they are often dry regurgitations of trite advice I've heard many times before. But I'm glad I watched this. Genuinely insightful articulations from a thoughtful mind. Thank you.

I love the tweaking your conversation style to get others receptive and open

The whole video is insightful but the one point really hits home for me it's when you said "The point is not to prove that I'm intelligent, the point is to learn from them." I often feel like I'm not speaking intelligently, or asking stupid questions, but this quote has eliminate the shame or ego in these situation and focus on what's important. Really appreciate the material you put out here, very glad I stumble across your channel!

I absolutely love your framework content and the community you have built here. Your ability to curate ideas, add your own valuable insights, and further the discussion is truly phenomenal. I often find myself skipping most mindset and habit videos a minute or two in because it’s clearly just a poorly repackaged copy of someone else’s idea. But yours always challenge me to look for practical applications and likeminded folks. Thank you! 🙏

Really appreciated the input-output loop explanation. It's not just about progress, but also rethinking errors as outputs. This way, we're prompted to seek new inputs, moving past errors for continuous improvement.

One of the best on-camera presenters on YouTube. It feels like she's talking to me one-on-one. A great talent and obviously passionate about continuous learning and sharing what she's learned with others. I subscribed before finishing the first of her videos.

You are one of the best channels I’ve found in a long time. Your cafe is such an interesting idea, I can’t wait to experience one of it. My fear of being boring / look stupid has blocked me from reframing my stories to make them land better. Your second point has given me a different outlook on this! These are wonderful, and very unique habits - thank you for sharing them!

Really like the "conversations with books" idea. I rarely get that from socializing.

Learn, evolve, refine and repeat. Thank You

PS: If someone cut you off, they might be very self-centered. I noticed it with the person I thought was my best friend for 7 years, for me I always listen since I love it, didn't noticed until shared something personal and put the focus on him instead. I then learned about the psychology of self-centered people and narcissist which saved me lots of time. If people are not as well interested in me, as I am in them. The connection won't work for me. Blessings xo

I've been watching this channel for 6 months now - and I'm a follower. I don't usually write any feedback or comments. Not only because I don't write well (but I'll look into your suggestion on writing course) but also because I don't think I'm adding anything new or useful. I'm also Chinese, and I guess many of things you covered (especially this episode) is almost counter-intuitive for our culture. We were taught to listen more and talk less, stay "low-profile", etc. BUT I definitely see your points about being open and taking definitive approaches to refining our thought processing and articulation for self-improvement - and on to a better / different level from where we are. Thank you for the wonderful content all along!

Vicky! I love how you provide actionable steps, also how you weren't discouraged when your friend didn't care about your excitement with Alain Botton's book (thanks for the recommendation), but decided to change yourself, and then make that into a refining process. You changed yourself, and in sharing, you give us a clear path to a happier life. Thank you

I learn something new whenever I watch your videos. thanks for making them!

i have struggled a lot with your idea about not starting a conversation because of the thought of not being able to add anything to the conversation . I have definitely got to improve the framing of my convos because I cant curate it fast enough for the type of person in front of me. i was amazed by your ideas of sandcastles and realized that I ve created so many in my life without having built any solid structure out of it. i have a great many layers of introspection to get to. thanks for putting this out for us. definitely, an insightful piece of art!

Such a good one. I love how you put your ideas and learning out there. It's always inspiring. Great reminder to create output, not just consume.

I like this simple little Seth Godin quote, "People like us do things like this".

The sand castle is relatable! And the struggle of finding the right audience to talk to is so real! The three steps you proposed are really insightful, but what if you want immediate disussion with some real humans and they are not readily available 😂 time to make davinci cafe to be real time Vicky!

Subscribed!! I love how you think and explain things. So many great tips I want to try in my life. Thank you!
