📄 CAPTIONS:
We are going to bring up the mental aspect of confidence and 3 body language habits for you to exercise to be more confident.
Understanding the mental side:
1) Other people’s opinions matter…. ONLY when they are feedback
If you are being told why you should do this and that, why you can make something happen but the other thing is a no go, you should question the validity of the statement alongside the other person’s point of view.
Human beings are biased towards blaming unhappiness on what we don’t have rather than the inability to work with what we currently have, therefore, people are way more likely to lecture you on what they don’t have themselves, based on their own mistakes rather than based on possibilities and what is compatible for you personally.
How often do you come across feedback that is practical and valid enough to propel you towards being better? Rarely.
And when you’re fed with so many external opinions that do not reflect on who you are, your self-image suffers.
The next time you get someone telling you how to do things do, consider if that feedback is consistent with you achieving a better lifestyle that is consistent with your end goals.
2) Self Awareness is king
At first, as you’re trying to figure things out you may sink into a seemingly endless cycle of negativity, focusing on what you’re not good at and trying to make up for it on a personal level, but what if you didn’t have to?
One of the most objective ways to ever approach your life isn’t by who you wanna be, that image is a bit flawed by biases towards what you’d like to change or what you’ve been fed with, it’s by who you’ve always been, looking for the most consistent patterns and trying to build off of that.
Human beings change, but they do not transform, some things will always be there, this is why it makes it so difficult to figure out who you are and others since there’s always something you’d like to change or improve.
So that sure as hell makes it easier to figure what’s always been good for you and what not, are you a materialistic person? Or you more spiritual? Were you trying to make a shift in any area because of somebody else?
It is not so much about doing and not doing as much as it is about priorities, being aware of your identity allows you to figure your top 2 priorities of things you would like to do on a daily basis or accomplish that would propel you towards your goals.
3) Social media is a façade
While everybody’s enjoying their short-term lives and boasting travel photos and fancy restaurants, a sucker like you is watching this video wondering where am I going with this?
There is always a tradeoff, short-term discomfort for long-term accomplishment and really… Nobody’s posting on social media to discuss their lows in life.
This is where the bias kicks in again, the “what if” comes in, what if I were there, the answer would be chances are it will not completely satisfy you.
This is not to say do not aim for more, this is to say aim further while understanding the tradeoff, we all have to give up certain aspects of life to be who we really are, to pursue what we’re about and social media DOES NOT show this.
You don’t know people’s struggles to make it happen and people are likely to dismiss yours when you make it, life is fucking hard when you’re figuring things out and when you’re exposed to people being happy all the time in your newsfeed, their peak moments 24/7, it can become a ridiculous standard to live up to.
Do not dismiss the trade-off.

    Hey, well try me. I was once taken to my boss's office--with her and her chef colleague--for touching my coworkers too much ( *_casually,_* on arms or shoulders). I was always very outgoing and tactile at work. The chef told me that we need the workers to be comfortable in a good work environment. That I shouldn't talk about anything other than work and school or tell my stories, because they may be inappropriate or upsetting (can't remember her exact words) to others. Now yeah, I pretty much didn't have a filter, but I don't think I said anything *_horrible._* I only meant to have fun with my crew. I really didn't get specific information from the chef about subjects and references. She likes that I'm outgoing, but she made it sound risky and in need of limits. And again, that I shouldn't touch anyone without consent. I own my mistakes at work, but I don't want anyone twisting it around into I'm making the chef the only bad guy. I didn't _mean_ any harm or discomfort. If I had known anyone would feel either, (though technically no one showed signs), I would _not_ have touched them. I am not a creep. But the chef made me feel like one. See, she shouldn’t have been so firm and in my face. A gentle, respectful talk for a couple minutes was all I needed. She shouldn’t have restricted me to handshakes only. Casual taps or pats or whatever are actually ok, as long as you don’t overdo them and it’s to friendly people who clearly enjoy you. I always thought it was perfectly innocent and natural, and I still do, in certain ways. Happens a lot at the bar parties I go to-total strangers. Besides, two middle-aged workers from the dining department have done it to me; I don’t condemn it. Also, the chef did not have to ask my boss if there was anything she wanted to add. How did she think that would make me feel? Not disrespected and like a criminal? HeII, my boss shouldn’t have been in the room at all; I deserved some dignity and comfort. I felt horrible. But of course, whenever I expressed this side on other videos, people would continue faulting me or saying the chef was right. To them, it was this side over the other. I felt like no one understood me or the gray areas I still think exist.

    Conclusions: 1. Ego is identinification of yourself through your minds. 2. To stop the mind to think a lot in past and future, focus on present. -see everything as they are and don’t judge -present creates past and future. -meditate and focus on rhythm of breathing, walk on stairs and focus in every steps, shower and feel the water and the warmth -you are in state of no mind now. 3. Creativity of artists and scientists came from the stillness mainly and lessly on thinking.

    @Nahash5150 Před rokem

    Yeah...what are you supposed to do when you constantly get negative feedback? Life isn't that simple. You can't just 'not' take things personally. All this advice just disappears when you're in a room with outher people and you just get ignored, despite trying to participate. When ppl you know are always calling others and hanging out, but they don't call you (you have to call them). When this keeps happening, what are you supposed to think? At some point, you have to figure out what is wrong with YOU. That makes you self-conscious, and the pattern just repeats. Some people win in this world and some don't. Some of us are ignored and left behind, and it isn't our fault. People are cruel. Absolutely cruel as hell. And it's those of us who want to change that who suffer the most.

    • @JoJo-mm8sn
      @JoJo-mm8sn Před rokem

      True, people are quite cruel. Very cruel. But what this guy is saying is that nothing is wrong with defending yourself or taking your self out of toxic environments. You have to take responsibility for your own life. Also not all feedback from people is correct- it os coloured by jealousy and resentment. That's what he means by not taking it personally, you won't if you have healthy self-esteem

  • @sandbar3000
    @sandbar3000 Před rokem

    Well there's an opposite of what you say. What if somebody ignores you and you think that they don't like you and they're not saying a word to you because they ignore you. They talk to everybody else at work but they don't talk to you. Looks like to me that they don't like you. Even if you start talking to them they say to you I'm not even talking to you so I don't know why you're talking to me. That sounds a little rude to me and I would say to myself gosh that person was really rude to me what's wrong with them what the hell did I do to them to deserve that kind of treatment. So do you think I want to talk to that person and engage with them after they said I'm not even talking to you so why would you talk to me. Like I said my other co-workers they don't even talk to me so I'm thinking they must not like me because if they did like me they would engage. They engage with everybody else but not with me. So it's either a problem with me and they don't like me or they are horrible horrible horrible people and they just don't like people which is not true because they obviously like the ones that they're talking to

It wasn’t until about age 45/46 where I learned to accept the fact that I will be alone forever. However, when things began to turn peaceful for me was the moment where I stepped out of the “acceptance” phase and into the phase of “embracement”... where I have now come to completely embrace the lifestyle of living alone and take full advantage of everything it brings and allows.

    There’s a reason why you should NOT make assumptions: The victim of a crime or bullying is automatically assumed to have “done something to deserve it.” This is wrong 😑 because the victim NEVER has the chance to prove he/ she did NOT do anything to deserve it. So without proof witnesses ASSUME the victim did something to deserve it. So the next time someone makes an assumption, just ask them “Where’s your proof?”

    This video is very important to me. Thank you so much. I'm adding it to one of my guides in life. Been single all my life (35 years old) and have been thinking I was ready for a relationship, but I think with my personal growth in the past 2 years I was just looking for a deeper sense of self. My way forward is not to look for love by specifically going after a mate, but to pour the love I already have over things I already love. I want a female to challenge me cognitively, not just support me and my endeavors. So far when I've gone after women, I find myself challenging them and they always run. I try to paint a picture that life with me isn't going to be easy, it isn't going to be great, but it is going to be real. Perhaps these women take it as I'm needy or they just want a fantasy. Either way I've learned to stop looking and start loving. Again thanks for this video.

    Then tell this to every individual convicted by any court, any legal system, in every country on this planet. I don't care if it's USA, UK, North Korea, Poland, Hungary, Japan, South Korea. There is nothing bad nothing wrong with crime or someone being a criminal. Those are just labels, insults, that angry politicians + judges + lawyers make up. They have NOTHING to do with absolute physical consequences of actions and decisions. Nobody should take a "guilty" verdict in a court personally. It is already bad enough that that person suffers torture by imprisonment or torture/harm by being fined money.
