5 Ways to Be a Better Man in 2022 | Simple & Actionable Tips

About this video

McGoff shares five techniques and mindset shifts to maintain motivation and happiness throughout the year beyond the initial New Year energy. He covers relationship-building, habit formation using the “never miss two” rule, productivity strategies with short timers, decluttering possessions, and the importance of acknowledging past progress rather than constantly chasing future goals.

Key takeaways

• McGoff argues that relationships are the most important factor in long-term happiness and recommends prioritizing time with people you care about
• McGoff recommends the “never miss two” rule—never missing two consecutive days of a habit or two consecutive days of an unhealthy behavior—as a sustainable approach to habit formation
• McGoff suggests using short 10-minute timers instead of longer ones to overcome procrastination and make starting difficult tasks feel less overwhelming
• McGoff advocates regularly decluttering possessions you don’t use or want to reduce both physical and mental clutter
• McGoff emphasizes creating a “done list” to acknowledge completed tasks and progress, arguing this builds confidence and prevents burnout from constantly pursuing future goals
