Get the Paperlike 3 to upgrade your iPad (it’s epic, I promise!) - https://paperlike.com/porritt/2512 👌 It’s only hard to work hard if you find hard work hard. Most people do — because we’re wired to procrastinate, burn out, and avoid effort. But what if you could actually train your brain to enjoy working hard? In this video, I explain how to reprogram your relationship with effort using neuroscience — not motivation, discipline, or hustle culture. When you understand what’s really driving your behaviour at a chemical level, hard work stops feeling like a grind and starts feeling genuinely rewarding. I’ll show you how to build a system where: ⟡ Work feels good while you’re doing it ⟡ Focus comes more easily ⟡ Progress compounds instead of draining you ⟡ And effort becomes something you naturally lean into The key is understanding how your brain’s happiness hormones actually work — and how most productivity advice accidentally fights against them. It’s about making effort feel intrinsically rewarding, so working hard becomes the default instead of a battle. ………………………………………………….

About Me I'm a lawyer, part-time YouTuber, son, brother, startup founder, husband, black coffee drinker and plant dad. I graduated from Cambridge University (where I studied French and Spanish), topped my law school class and now work for a corporate law firm in London as a solicitor (which takes up a lot of my time)! Around that, I'm a big fan of discovering new ways of thinking, of balancing work with life, and of performing to the very best of my ability. Ohh, and being happy. And I try to share all that on this YouTube channel 😀 Fun fact: I believe we massively overplay the role of “natural talent” 😮 AND… I also believe that TOGETHER, WE ARE ALL CAPABLE OF POSITIVITY, PRODUCTIVITY AND SUCCESS. 📸 Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/liam.porritt/ 🌍 My little kingdom – https://liamporritt.com ………………………………………………….
