    Lightbulb Surprise solution for all who become sick of the commercials on YouTube

    • Surprise solution for all who become sick of the commercials on YouTube
    @AprilM-yi1lc (on YouTube) quote: "I'm so sick of watching two commercials, times however many seconds they want you to watch, ..." unquote

    John Kuhles:

    "Me too, but I found a solution, which works most of the time for me ... all depends on if you are disciplined enough!

    When I see a "2 part commercial break" on YouTube it shows a countdown of 20 sec or 15 sec or 10 sec etc. the moment I see that I MUTE the sound first then I scroll the YouTube display down so that I do not see the video-window anymore ... then I take a mindful meditative deep breath and when doing all that automatically do a countdown in my head from the last moment I saw the countdown-timer of the commercial.

    So when it is 20 seconds I start counting down from approx 18 or 17 seconds to zero THEN I scroll up again and see if the next commercial is also 20 sec or 15 sec or 10 sec and do it AGAIN until it is finished then UNMUTE and continue watching the video.
    • When it is just 5 seconds countdown then hitting "SKIP add", I do not need to do above "mindful breathing ritual".
    My main focus is to have absolutely NO IRRITATION, NO "ANNOYANCE", NO JUDGING of any kind ... Just let go of any "thinking" ... just be aware of your (sacred?) "meditative moment" that HELPS you to uplift your "state of being".
    • If you are NOT your captain of your Soul, you are most likely easily upset, angered, condemning, frustrated, THUS counterproductive on a mental, emotional, spiritual level.
    I have done the above for over 1 year now and IT HELPS 99 of the 100 times now. (in the beginning it was around 50/50).

    Mind you, that you use a "negative form of NLP" (Neuro-linguistic programming) by stating: "I'm so sick" ... You did not say: "I feel sick" or "feels like I am becoming sick" or "it is sickening" whatever you say to yourself is a form of CONDITIONING (programming your subconsciousness) having a power over you.

    Being alert how you use language, is key to change your own (self)-conditioning ... always look for better alternatives that is closer to what is really happening ... People who want to describe their feelings in a desperate way mostly tend to exaggerate to do "justice" to how you feel, but in reality it may just you being annoyed or being agitated.

    When you feel somehow powerless to deal with that constructively, the frustration "build up" of incompetence is WHY people chose different words to describe their feelings & emotions. Like you just did: "I'm so sick" becomes your symbol or an avatar of your "state of being" and is dominating your "vibes" of being a victim.

    Victim mentality only breeds more victim realities >>> ultimately, everybody CAN become a victim of anything in life, how you deal with it determines your character ... To overcome or transform it, you need first to know yourself better WHY you talk like that!

    I can say so much more about this, even written about "Spiritual Psychology" that is beyond dualistic thinking and beyond mainstream "psychology" ... As a Near Death Experiencer (when I was 5 years old) I do not fear death anymore ... I know (not "believe") we are so much more than or 5 senses can show us.

    My mother studied Psychology at a University in Maastricht when I was 8 to 11 years old, she taught me to question everything, especially mainstream psychologists & psychiatrists

    That is why I chose a different path in helping people to make them more aware of certain (beyond duality thinking) insights.

    cheers,
    John Kuhles

    I watch YouTube 99% of the time on my laptop, I have UBlockOrigin installed and have not seen a UToob commercial for over 5 years, this is an effective, free utility available, no adverts, just saying.

    I don't mind letting the ads run for favourite YT channels, I can mute the sound and do something else. It's my way of helping content creators who use a lot of their time to produce content, so that the ad revenue gives them a bit of income for their efforts.

    • adblockplus.org works better on desktop than on a phone ... also for TV always use a DVR and skip EVERY commercial.
