This video is an amazing video because Ali doesn't only "talk the talk," he really "walks the walk" to film a video that may not be "perfect" for a topic he really cares about. This is "beating perfectionism" in real time 😎 Love it so much!!!

First of all, I would like to thank you. I have been following you for three years now, starting when I was in class 9th. You have changed a lot for me, Ali. You have greatly improved my high school life, introducing me to study methods I couldn't even imagine. Thanks to you, I started reading books. I remember the first book I read a year ago was "Atomic Habits." One quote that really stuck with me was, "You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems." Thanks to you, I was able to transform my habits and mindset. Currently, I am preparing for a scholarship examination so that I can learn even more. I've always been good with computers, and by applying your study methods, my life has completely changed. I just wanted to thank you for everything. You've helped this kid become a responsible man. Oh, by the way, I'm still in high school. Thanks a lot, Ali. I hope to meet you one day or get a chance to talk to you on the phone. I will work hard to make this wish come true. Again, thanks a lot.

As a 20 yo who's been working on his entrepreneurial journey for almost 2 years now without any results, I found this video extremely helpful, especially the “Optimize for Enjoyment” part. Before, all my focus was on finding an income stream regardless if I enjoy the thing or not, and I found myself doing things I don’t like with zero results, this changed just this week while I was reading “The Personal MBA” and I’ve read this: “Spend your time doing work you like, with people you enjoy, in a way that keeps you financially sufficient”, and that’s why I loved the “Optimize for Enjoyment” part.

Honestly, one thing that I am struggling with is overthinking in the sense that when I want to do something, I think rather than do and oftentimes when I do the thing, I often stop doing the thing before I get my desired results because of some excuse. Maybe I get lazy, maybe I reason my way out of caring about doing the thing, or something. I often spiral into an existential crisis whether or not I’m doing something productive.

This undoubtedly is one of the best videos of yours I have seen so far where you happen to speak right from the heart, then and there. I have never thought of becoming an KZitemr nor have I read Austin Kleon's -" Show Your Work" but this video has definitely sparked something in me that says to me, "You need to provide an act of service that has the potential to potentially help at least one person." My perspective on tools like KZitem and social media has completely transformed, when I heard you say, "When you do anything in the spirit of the service its one of the thing that stops the voice of the saboteur". 23:45

Thank you for this, as a teacher heading back next week to prepare for the new year I needed this. I've said often that even if I didn’t NEED to I would still teach because I love teaching, the students, and who I work with. I teach the visually impaired. I have a new post-it for this year (last year's was Work Smarter Not Harder) - What would it look like if it were fun? I work with a lot of students who like me struggle with perfectionism because they know that what support they get now defines their quality of life so much as an adult, they know it more than their classmates in their regular classes but just like I struggle to provide it all (because you can't not all at once - braille, assistive tech, basic life skills, self-advocacy, keeping up in their general ed. classes, and more). It feels like running 15 marathons simultaneously 1 step at a time hoping there's no hurdles nor potholes knowing very well there will always be both. Per student. I'm all for for doing all of that but I struggle with balancing that and also recovering from chronic burnout that was made worse by grad school and life situations. How do I balance healing from burnout while still showing up as a single mom and as a teacher? That's the crux of it all for me. I know in your video you talk about how you hope it helps one person, but through me I know you've helped me and most likely 1 if not more students and colleagues because I'll share it. Thank you

Ali, I'm wired like you when it comes to self-judging and creating obstacles ("it needs to be the best I can do") to getting things done. I think your intro clip verbalized a mantra I have to use to guide myself back to the road when I end up in a ditch: "done is better than perfect." I'm only 67, so there's still time for me to mend my ways, and I'm optimistic. Anyway, hearing your discussion helps remind me of things that make me better and feel better. It's not wasting time, and I/we are not judging you negatively. Keep doing what you're doing. Try another mantra I heard and am internalizing: "whatever happens, I don't mind." I think it's a Buddhist idea. One thing I struggle with: household repairs that are clear for a couple steps, but then I don't know what will happen, so I delay (I call it "doing more research").

I am currently writing a script for my next video but it is taking me a while. I always end up with about a month between videos or longer because I just can't get started. The topic of the video is around the anxiety of permanence and how it can be debilitating (especially from an ADHD, 'all or nothing' thinking viewpoint). Mixed in with RSD, perfectionism and permanence become a minefield in the brain and it can take weeks to work my way through it and get started. Once I do, I can script, film, edit and upload in a couple days. But it's the before that's definitely the hard part. I've written 'Does this have the potential to help at least one person? Yes? Then you have a moral obligation to make it!' on a post it hah! But also, the advice around 'this one just needs to be reasonable, the next one will be good' is going to help a lot I think. At the moment I have a 'this one has to be better than the last one' mindset, thinking along the lines of the 1% better with every upload idea. But, its likely that even with uploading a 'reasonable' video, I will end up being 1% better with every upload by default, simply through repetitions of doing it. Great video Ali, and great question Andy :D

I realized through making videos that it's easier to just express yourself and see what happens in the beginning. It's easy to limit ourselves by what we think is palatable to others; but as Ali said if it has the potential to help at least one person, it's worth putting out there and seeing what happens.

Thanks for this video, Ali! As a new KZitemr (I uploaded my first video on March 30 this year), I find inspiration, motivation, and encouragement from watching your content. In my personal life, I dedicate time to at least one random person each week, sometimes connected through LinkedIn or my community contacts. I tell myself that if my suggestion, advice, or information can benefit one person, why not make a video that could help at least ten people with the same information? This thought keeps me going, and I really enjoy the video editing process. I agree with what you mentioned about the finished product often being better than the first draft because creation is always messy. I also resonate with your emphasis on having a clear purpose and serving others, not just making videos for the sake of it. So, stay blessed and thanks again!!☺

Man, I love the way your brain processes the mundane into its lowest common denominator. This video really spoke volume to my personal journey building my podcast on KZitem.

...Not like the book?! Ali, the book is brilliant. It doesn't repeat the old "self help" narrative and is an easy, accessible read. I am halfway through your KZitem academy too. You're a hero.

Love it. I’m going to use that mindset for my KZitem channel “This one is going to be reasonable the next one will be good” giving value to just 1 person is a great mindset. Thank you.

Ali, thank you for all the information in your book. I really wanted my work process to be more fun, but I had no idea. I thought I had already tried all kinds of ideas. But I kept reading your book and kept thinking about it. One day I suddenly came up with the idea of using Windows "voice access" to dictate the text instead of typing it out. It's pretty accurate, even more so than Google Docs "voice typing." Now I'm working on improving my pronunciation of words so that the voice access can better capture what I'm saying. I am really grateful for the new perspective you gave me.

The most important thing I have learnt is to set maximum expectation whatever tou wish , and act to it to get reault and seee whether tou are able to complete your work to meet your expectations. Amd then after 1 week or so , just remember the person who got you started on this journey and see how limited were you thinking when you aet those bars for youself , either you ll find yourself over estimating the efforts or under estimating , there you are . Now you can set your expectations back to reality , without changing your goal , just the view for the effort it takes will get in your mind will get modified to something better which can now give you better motivation to run for longer . Even then after 1 week or whenever you feel like , you have not taken this into consideration or that .just revisit the person , who set the expectations last time and again ask , if this would have known to me , what were my new expectations then ?? ❤❤

Hi Ali, my brand new KZitem channel, StoneLaunch, is now up and running. I’m focusing on ways to build wealth, and your channel has inspired me to jump right in. Thanks for all that you do!

I'm glad I found this video today, when I really needed it. Ive been agonizing yesterday evening and all throughout work today with these self imposed expectations that I believe my audience and bosses also share (even though they haven't explicitly told me they do, I just imagine they do), and its been really difficult to just sit down and draw the thing that I want to do. I keep thinking, "it's nice, but how is my interpretation of this character good when other artists are just so much better?" It's been really helpful to hear what I'm experiencing and explained in the terms you used. It resonated with me at the right time, I think. I found myself nodding along the entire time, and I felt so seen. So thank you for taking fighting against that voice and hitting the record button. (and high five to your post production team haha!)

I was just got up after having a nap when I just saw the thumbnail of the video and literally it gave me goosebumps to clear all my temptations of perfectionism and publish my video in the next week. I must say that your videos and myself are in a living touch with each other. Thanks from Lahore, Pakistan.❤❤

Golly, gotta love Ali. I just go for a random video and put it on. I know I'm gonna love it and it will resonate with me.

Thanks Ali for overcoming your perfectionism and filming this video for us even when you didn't quite feel ready. It's comforting to know that you still struggle too. As a mother of 2 who works full time and wants to do KZitem, I can really relate to Andy's situation and this was super helpful. Ali, I took your KZitem Foundation course and it really helped me finally get started on my KZitem channel, something I've wanted to do for 3 years. Your advice to 'beat perfection with imperfection' is incredibly helpful: we will always have the opportunity to grow and get better, but we can't get anywhere if we don't start, right?

Hi Ali, I have been following you for sometime now and your videos have been very useful for me lately. It's not new for me to watch a video about Self Help, it's been couple of years since I have started watching them whenever I feel clueless or low. But the problem I struggle with the most is, even though I learn a lot from all these videos and at times solve my problem in real life implementing it, yet after couple of months I see myself struggling with the same problem again. But by this time I would have forgot how I solved it previously and battling the same things again. For example, I came to a realisation that I need to set goals so as to stop feeling like Imposter and meet those goals and also not feel guilty by spending some time for fun. This did help and I was doing good for sometime and along the way this practise stops and time runs by. Suddenly one day I look back and realise why I am feeling like an Imposter and that I solved this previously. Can you please make a video on this?

I have a KZitem Channel with 2 videos, and it was so hard to do this in my head. The (voice of the saboteur) keeps saying you're not in the right frame of mind, it's too much effort, etc.. Still, when I look at my states, 1 video has 300 views (meh), but the other video has 2.7 thousand views, spurring me to frame my thinking to make more. Still, I am stuck in this loop. Your video has helped me to reframe things. Thanks so much for the time and for your content. This video has helped one person, at least ME! Thanks

Hey Ali. This has been super super useful. I greet you from Panama, Republic of Panama. I'm writing a book, it's actually about productivity, my personal approach (you would surely find it interesting). The process, as you mention, is a mess, but as you say, if it helps just one person, I will feel useful and grateful. Thanks for your videos brother..

Hey Ali, your video is a real eye-opener for me. I've been wanting to start a KZitem channel for ages, but I always get stuck thinking no one will watch my videos or that they won't be good enough. I have all these ideas about creating the "perfect" video that will stand out on KZitem... and that need for "perfection" has resulted in me not uploading a single thing!

Ali, I have grown fond of you watching your earlier videos! They were cute and entertaining. I see you have grown much since. Hope you make more videos with the same sense of humour you had back then. I had fast-forwarded big par of your videos lately.
