3 YouTube Channels That Have Transformed My Life
Check Out the Best Videos I’ve Curated for Each Channel!
The number of self-help/productivity YouTube channels has proliferated in recent years, but only a few are packed with quality content.
Here are 3 YouTube channels that have impacted me the most! 👊🏻
1) Better Ideas
I remember coming across this video back in the day and I thought: Wow, that video hit the nail on the head! 📌
I instantly became a subscriber that day and still watch his videos to this day.
What I like about Better Ideas is that Joey Schweitzer never fails to live up to the name of his channel.
He legitimately shares tons of ideas brought across in a simple manner that helps you live better! 😋
I also love the slogan of his channel: Inaction is a Slow Death.

2) Ali Abdaal
Ah, Ali.
I bet his name is familiar to those of us who have been in the productivity space for some time now!
His videos are fun to watch, packed with actionable steps, and pretty chill — almost as if you were listening to the advice of a wise friend! 💭
I like his laid back approach to productivity, where he isn’t doing all the “hype” stuff like taking a cold shower at 5 AM or planning his day in 5-minute blocks just because it doesn’t work for everyone. 🚿

3) Andrew Kirby
Okay, this YouTuber might seem a little controversial and I get why that is the case.
Nonetheless, I’ve still learned a ton from his YouTube videos!
The most impactful lesson must have been the one when he shared about being a synthesizer which involves the following 3 steps:
- Consume intentionally 🍉
- Curate authentically 🎨
- Create prolifically 🌋
This was a breakthrough for me as it has never been easier to create content (like writing on Medium) by taking time to compile and consider all that you’ve read, watched, listened to, etc.

Now, does this mean that you should start binge-watching all their YouTube videos?
Obviously, no! 🙅
While watching these videos are beneficial to us, we should be wary of watching excessive self-help videos without implementing any change in our lives. 👀
We may fool ourselves into thinking that we are still learning or gathering knowledge before starting.
But that would directly go against the main message of these videos!
Remember: nothing can substitute the hard work and discomfort of implementing whatever we’re learned. ⛏
Period.
So, let’s put knowledge into action! 🚀
