Can we just not talk about productivity for a second? I just want to live and breath. Not hustle and die.
May be atomic habit forming

Productivity is a bourgeois concept that has been force fed onto the rest of us.
zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 4 months ago
Yes. Focus on self-care instead.

Self improvement is masturbation. Now self destruction…
The left side is the lifestyles people sell to you in an effort futile effort to ‘beat the grind set’ required by “line goes up, forever” capitalism.
The right side is min-maxing your output to actualize your rewards in that system, at the cost of your lifespan.
The only winning move is not to play.

Thank you. This is the only thing that makes sense to me.

I am gonna be honest. Atomic Habits and the like helped me immensely recover my life outside the work. I don’t have lotsa energy, and I have no motivation whatsoever. It was always like that. But these shitass books, well, more excerpts from them actually helped me to get back some of my life. After that, I managed to start working on my mental health.
What I am going for is - don’t bash something only because it’s being sold. :( These are just tools.

I felt the Fight Club line was pretty clearly tongue i cheek, but to be clear - I have nothing wrong with self improvement for yourself, with organic rationale.
The grindset lifestyle is super toxic though, and the wellness influencers are just yogis reskinned imo.

The right side looks like one hell of a fun night to me.

I got gifted the Atomic habits book a few years back. Unfortunately one of the habits I don’t have yet is reading. Still haven’t started it.
zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 4 months ago
Simply take the book off the shelf every day.
There. You’ve just learned atomic habits.

Something about Huberman rubs me the wrong way. I get the same “snake oil salesman” vibe from him I get off the rest of the alt-right toxic masculinity crowd.

Yes. One example is the blue light blocking glasses. When he first started out on the platform he mentioned a lot of times that such products don’t work. However, a few years later took a partnership with a company that sells those and suddenly they work and the brand he partnered with is amazing.
Not to mentioned the fact that he has several million followers, sponsorships and a high paying job while still saying that all the income he gets serves to fund the posdcast and to keep his knowledge free.
He may have started with good intentions but he’s long gone to the grift side of things.

Didn’t he get embroiled in some sort of scandal like three years ago because he was dating multiple women who all thought they were exclusive?
HootinNHollerin@slrpnk.net 4 months ago
Yea same he popped up in my YouTube feed and after I’ve video I said don’t recommend channel. Felt that way

I’ve interacted with people who practice and preach this philosophy. I still wonder why natural selection allows for their existence 🤦

All I can see in the picture are hobbies.

What is that ring on the left?
HootinNHollerin@slrpnk.net 4 months ago
They crammed a smart watch into a ring, likely using the tools on the right
Lileath@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 months ago
Wait, that’s not an electronic cock ring? I am pretty sure I saw one looking really similar.
AtHeartEngineer@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Oura ring
Ghoelian@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 months ago
Looks like one of those smart rings, maybe a galaxy ring or something?

Tangential, but Notion is an excellent tool for organizing a D&D campaign.
I have not ever used Notion for anything career or life productive, but boy is it ever my favorite D&D organizing tool

How dare you put my healthy morning run next to these bullshit scams!

The left side also includes working out, having positivity posters, and a cup that says Rise And Grind.
The right could include a Doordash logo and a hot goth girl.
mean_bean279@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Left side is also people that haven’t achieved anything, but swear “I’m working on something big bro. I’m making moves.”
Right side is every sales organization with people pulling 200k a year while ignoring all of their actual lives and then dying off early.

It all just looks like hustler-branded consumerism to me.
ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 4 months ago
I mean yeah.

Where does one get the hot goth girl that increases productivity?
