I know it's time-consuming to sit through long YT videos to obtain the key points, and even if my ears are tuned to 2x speed, it still takes a chunk of my time. Now, if I really wanna get all the details, I will sit through the video, no question!! However, there are a lotta videos where you just wanna get the key takeaways, and here's an example of how I do it -- if you have a better method, please share below. 1. Go to YouTube -- e.g. Skool Stories Interviews by Matthew Thompson @ Skool 2. I'll select Matthew's 1st video he did with Andrew Kirby (scroll to the bottom) 3. Right click the video >> Copy link address (1st Screenshot) 4. Head over to ChatGPT and use the following prompt: "summarize [Insert YT link] organize info for easy reading, highlight key takeaways and action steps" 5.ChatGPT will do a pretty good job!! (2nd Screenshot) Alternatively, you can install a Google Chrome Extension to do it right in YT: 1. Head over to: https://chromewebstore.google.com/category/extensions 2. Search: "YouTube Summary" 3. Install one you like 4. I personally use: https://notegpt.io/ 5. Once you sign up to NoteGPT and login, you will see it on all your YT videos (3rd Screenshot) 6. NoteGPT serves up a preeeety nice lil' MindMap .PNG file (4th Screenshot) Hope this was helpful, and if you have a favourite way to summarizing long YouTube Videos, please share in the comments -- we're all here to learn and better leverage our time.

Several years ago I came up with a ONE-HOUR Morning Routine called, 𝓜𝔂 𝓜𝓸𝓻𝓷𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓜𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓬, MMM, to keep me focused daily. This routine, if followed, will help you live a conscious life, a life designed by you instead of reacting to life's events. 𝓜𝔂 𝓜𝓸𝓻𝓷𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓜𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓬 is very simple n here's how it works: M = MINDFUL MEDIATION - 10 min A = ACTIVE - move that body - 20 min G = GRATITUDE - 10 min I = INSPIRATION - read, listen, write, journal - 15 min C = CHOOSE ONE thing to complete today, work at it until done, then move to next task - 5 min You can also habit stack and increase the time on any part of MMM, e.g. When working out, I plug in and listen to an audiobook or Podcast, therefore, I can increase my mediation time (M) and habit stack (A + I). Once the hour is up, shower, get dressed for work, eat b'fast or if you're doing Intermittent Fasting, start by drinking 1/2 fresh squeezed lemon, pinch of Himalayan salt n warm water -->> drink with a straw coz lemon will wear down the enamel in your teeth. /* And that's the END of this simple morning routine, which is responsible for a life well lived. */ Please share your morning routine -- you'll inspire others toward their mindset journey.

Hey hey hey 👋🏼 y'all, Happy, happy New Year's to you and your lovely family 🥰 Another year gone by And another year to get it right!! Let’s make 2025 a great year!! 👇🏼👇🏼 my dog, Minnie

Over a decade ago, I’ve been encouraging others to transcend manmade institutions, labels, titles n everything that restricts the beautiful human mind. I’ve noticed that so much of our stress comes from attachment—to conditions, roles, and identities that keep us stuck. While we can learn from manmade institutions, labels and titles, it's crucial to remember that true growth comes from transcending the beliefs of the masses and follow your inner guidance – your true North!! I recently came across Malcolm Gladwell's wisdom that resonates with my philosophy: When Gladwell was asked about the work he does, and how he chooses projects that are in total alignment with him, he mentioned, "to the best of my ability, I try not to define myself at all." “Self-conceptions are powerfully limiting. The most important thing is never to make a decision about yourself that limits your options. In the act of defining yourself, you start to close off opportunities for change, and that strikes me as being a very foolish thing to do if you're not 85 years old.” -- Malcolm Gladwell Gladwell tries to never define himself — because if he did, he’d overlook every opportunity that doesn’t fit that narrow definition. Who are you without any labels or attachment to limiting beliefs? SoOoo many people believe "they are not enough," that they can never be successful or achieve their dreams -- Who would you be without these false beliefs?? Can you detach from societal labels, titles and manmade constructs -- and who would you be without them? As we usher in 2025, it is my wish for you to not fall into the trappings of "labels, titles, and manmade constructs" which limits and restricts the beautiful, infinite human mind. From my part of the world, #Toronto -- here's wishing you and your lovely family a Happy New Year filled with candy cane dreams and happy emojis, as we enter the dawn of the new year -- n let's drizzle some love, compassion, kindness, understanding n some magical sparkly pixey dust along the way!!
