Wouldn't your life be magical if you could exercise the self control you intend? Your body would be ripped, your bank account always in the black, you'd always floss, eat right, and get up on time. You'd never be plagued by depression, anger, or anxiety, because you'd will your emotions into compliance.
Self control is the building block of all discipline, the cornerstone of achieving any success. Our mind comprehends our reality as two worlds, the outer world of objects, situations, and people around us; and the inner world of our emotions, thoughts, and beliefs. Humans naturally seek solutions to their problems via the outer world, instead of within themselves. The secret to self-control is to change the paradigm. Instead of portraying ourselves as victims who are acted upon by outside forces, we need to be the creators of our situations and success -- a creator mentality, rather than a victim mentality.
As with instilling any habit, exercising self control requires persistence. Imposing discipline strengthens the pre-frontal cortex's impulse control; while giving in to brain-sapping vegetative stimulation such as TV and internet weakens it.
To improve your self control, own your control via your inner world, rather than blaming outside forces. Unhook from outside stimulation, because you're not in control when you're letting your brain be occupied the lazy way. Instead, read and introspect your way to self control.
About the Site π
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. π₯
Origins of the Idea π±
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. π§
Challenges Faced π€
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. π
Creating Truly Random Links π οΈ
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube πΊ
YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. π
Content and Users π΅
Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.
While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.
Monetization and Impact π€
YouTube and creators earn revenue through Google AdSense, with most videos free to view. Premium channels and subscription services like YouTube Music and YouTube Premium offer ad-free streaming.
As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. π
