Be careful what you wish for...

  • In the modern day it can be very difficult to chose goals and to pursue them long term. With the prevelance of social media and perhaps outdate advice from those older than you. You need to sit down and think about what you truely desire from life. Perhaps its not the money or fame you want, but the feeling associated with having those external assests.
    One thing I want to make clear about this video. I'm not saying that everyone is wrong and I'm right. It's very nuanced. What I am saying is take the time to digest and reflect on what people tell. What do you agree with? What do you think is not applicable to you. And your course from there. This does take a lot of time and you are not expected to know exactly what you. But getting one step closer is always a good thing.

    neat content, keep moving forward, we will as well. I thought exactly about this topic recently, I'm 34 yet I still decluttering my mind from what are society and others wanting from me, what do I want after I extract my own mind from the collective manipulations they put on me. I'm still looking for it and deselect more and more things that are still in my head but certainly not my own thoughts. I wanted to get fulfilled without playing in the hands of others. I often feel not right in place, since I do not want to participate in the game of capitalism, materialism and also beauty symbols. All of these things are lies put in my mind that we should pursue for unrelatable reasons after you excluded yourself from it a bit.

      Thank you. The expectations set upon us by others is often time very unrealistic for some individuals. I also don't like the idea of following the path that people have set out for me if they aren't in the position I want to be in life. That's not to say they won't have anything good to say. But you have to consider your weaknesses, strengths and interests. For examples our parents aren't trying to be destructive with the advice they give but sometimes it's a bit outdated and hasn't been adapted to changes in technology, culture and whatnot. Tbf tho I'll probably be the same when I get older ahaha. But good luck with whatever you're working on :)

    Hey you just appeared first video randomly on my home screen and I was surprised to see a small channel. I'm amazed by this video even the editing is so good so keep working keep doing them cause they are amazing and good luck with it. My only advice for the the parts where you are talking is try to change a bit the lighting and make it more cinematic, you can make it look amazing.

      Welcome to the channel! The talking head part of my videos are filmed using my phone which is connected to my pc via wifi signal, so the quality isn't that good. I'm looking towards saving up and getting a better camera which will fix some of the lighting issues. Thank you for the feedback!

    Bro you deserve to grow, I subscribed to ALL notifications and liked your video after noticing you have 48 subs. Before that I saved the video in my playlist, watched it twice, saved it in my bookmarks, started analyzing it, then I watched the subs. Respect, and sorry for my conditioning to not notice that first.
