  2. Thats why i did not started a self improvement cahnnel this is the answer. I am not making a sarcastic or ironic joke. Its true i wanted to make a channel . But i though if my life is not up to the mark then who i am to tell anyone else

  3. I have no doubt that the conclusions , mentioned in this videos are coming sincerely from the speaker.
    And I'm not saying they are wrong . Perhaps they are right from his current point of view , but it doesn't mean that it is absolute .
    I am by no means some kind of all know guru , I have so much to learn and experience myself .
    But there is one thing I'm certain about this video , regarding the college kids reason to workout .

    You see perhaps this can perfectly describe some college kids reason to workout , but Ive been bodybuilding for more than a decade .
    I'm absolutely in love with it , I have pure passion for it .
    I do it for my self , for the sake of doing it and it very hard to describe the reasoning behind it , I guess it's just how passion works .
    This is something the speaker did not acknowledge , did not mention . And just like that , perhaps many more things .
    Ultimately , i suppose there is some truth behind what the speaker is saying , but the fact that the saying aren't wrong , does not mean that its the whole forest , perhaps its just some trees that he currently sees .

  5. Well you do honestly gained another point of view, and by living in society or even touching it through the internet you'll someday gain another one or at last this one will improve a bit. Funny thing is, you are both right and wrong :D. That's what pushing some people through life, it's a phenomenom of cancelling each other information and bcause of that there will be only good answer to your present situation and pont of view 🙂

  6. Probably cynical. I understand but at the same time ego is what drives us forward, that and the biological drive to procreate which ego facilitates… It is dumb that YT creators always say the same dumb shit: smash the…, don't forget to bla bla, support me yadayada. There are are pure creators who make videos for the sake of art. EGO will be forced out of us though.. Just wait until 2030 when the great collective socialist utopia comes, where the oligarch EGO maniacs have convinced us we don't need private property and we can all sit under the bhodi tree, genderless and fully indoctrinated, occasionally purchasing vegetable based foods with our digital UBI credits as we drink only only water recycled from our own human waste courtesy of Bill Gates' Janicki Omniprocesser. We will all be as one. Yay.

  7. Happiness is all about self-awareness. If you are unhappy, find out what makes you unhappy and solve it. Visualize what you want. Set goals in achieving your vision. Take action. There are so many books already on this topic that it's so absurd that people still don't know what happiness is.

    The biggest mistake you can do in your life is to think that you are not responsible for your life. Wherever you are right now, you are there because of yourself. Choose your destiny, and make it happen. No one will do it for you. If your life sucks, then guess what, you can fucking change it. So go change it. You are responsible. You get what you deserve. Period.

  8. I cannot believe you have been back making videos for almost 2 years and I am just finding out about it now – I am subscribed to your channel and Youtube just finally put a new video of yours in the suggestions. I have not been notified of a new video by you in years. I used to go and check every couple of months to see if you ever made another video and I gave up after about 3 yrs… which appears to be right about when you came back. For what its worth – I absolutely love your animated reviews of books – nobody cared if you were full of shit – having read many of them before watching your reviews, your "take" on the ideas in the books were providing "value" to me and to everyone who watched them and listened to you. Your reviews of books I had already read made me want to read the other books that you were boiling down and since then I have read most of the books in your top 10- I never read more than when I found your channel. I've looked through your most recent videos and I see that you have taken a back seat again and have the authors giving summaries of their work . While these new videos are interesting – the real benefit of your channel is your interpretation and presentation of their work – you might not feel worthy of giving others your perspective as a relatively young person (I am older than you and have 3 kids) but I for one can tell you that there is one thing the world needs – You sharing ideas.

    Thank you

  9. I like your videos, but you are extremely insecure subconsciously and I'm not sure you can even perceive it. I don't think you've gone a single video without subtly boasting about your accomplishments. You also think your opinions are fact. Glad you have had success on here, but I also hope you do some self inspection.

  10. You are super duper amazing; direct, clear and straight massage in all your video. ?
    Just a question, regarding in supporting friends & family I follow your point; but what action we need to do?
    – Eliminate their access to our social medias?
    – or let them be there, and see our step by step succeed? if one day their return?
    – What should we do with their posted and pics then?
    Tnx for your input ?

  11. This anxiety is EXACTLY why I'm questioning why I should be taking YouTube seriously. I feel afraid of saying one unpopular opinion that's considered politically-incorrect (even though I am from a different culture and we do things differently) and I'm ruined. I'd rather live a quiet life doing a job where I actually earn money. ??‍♀️?

  12. Aspiration for something is the fuel of human existence. People get together, do projects and want to achieve success (money, recognition, feeling of belonging, service to the common good). I don't find that it's "pathetic" in a degrading sense. There are excesses, true, like the rolls-royces guru and you have to practice discernment. There are people on the other side of the spectrum, with different priorities, like meditation and mindfulness (which, as you said, may not be as productive). The truth is that action brought us to where we are now (not only in the US), and all this dalai-lama thing is for inspiration, which could potentially affect your behaviour, making it more ethical maybe or making you simply "Apathetic" , which seems to be your case. Just keep in mind one thing: nothing matters. Have a good day 😀

  13. First of all, please don't overthink or have second thoughts. Your videos have helped and impacted alot of people over the years.

    Delusional or not, u have touched the brains and souls of many. With ur book recommendations and ur life advices, you have been like a guide to many. A guide to live life the right way.

    All those ideas u shared were so top tier, interesting, and helpful. As the saying goes "fake it till u make it", sometimes a VISION and MANIFESTATION is all we need to achieve our maximum potential. Why would anyone want to stay at their rock bottom? Sometimes ego is useful to unleash our inner powers and reach our goals. I say be somebody that helps others with ideas. Would u have preferred to keep all those amazing ideas to urself and just burst? U did the least selfish thing anyone could do. U didn't keep the ideas to urself, u shared them. And that my friend is being selfless and not being threatened by competitors. You literally gave up all ur collected valuable advices and put them to action. I find every single one of ur videos full of wisdom and skills. In a f*cked up generation like this we really need people like u.

    U helped people have access to amazing books and become better humans. Books I dont even know they existed are now my favorite that i recommend to others.you created quality content mate. Ur effort was so obvious. If you feel like u did it because of ego, i disagree. You helped alot of people and thats all that matters.
    Don't get carried away by your thoughts. Youtube channel was never a mistake to make and i hope u don't regret it, because i myself am so thankful to have found ur channel .
    I hope you're doing better now.

  14. I watched a video of yours for the 1st time. I enjoyed it and it made me think. It was on Victor Frankl. I liked your voice, how you articulated and your drawings. Thanks for that….frankly I think this video? ….you’re over thinking. Appears you are listening to somebody….don’t. Only God is perfect …we just strive to share light and not darkness. Again thanks for that bit of light you shared with me. It helped me.

  15. Another point for youth is ignorance: using a dad of three kids as a counterpoint to mindfulness. I suspect this guy doesn't have kids, and thus knows not of what he speaks. Stick to what you know.
