For People Feeling Lost in Life
Vložit
- čas přidán 27. 09. 2019
- These are some of my thoughts on feeling a little confused/lost in life. I feel like we don't treat these things as if they are normal, which I believe they are if you are an independent person that is looking for answers. In a way, I hope this can help dispel the idea that people out there have everything figured out. They do not. Nobody does.

I just feel like floating around all the time and just surviving this life instead of living it
Alexia Salerno I really really felt that
One day you’ll get your purpose and I really hope that day comes soon ♥️
me too😞
@@savannastreet7 I hope so x
Loser
Anyone else in a situation where you feel so stuck n you dont even feel like yourself at this point
Exactly..
Purplelove yeah
Yes sir.
me too
see here
From the bottom of my heart, I'm so tired. I wanna live, not just exist.
Some times we need to keep fighting. Maybe you will need my content in my channel
Same
I. Feel. This.
Same. I want to just enjoy walking, appreciating things around me, and live with no worry. No rat race. Not living autopilot. thinking about survival and competiion all day.
Same here
I just got teary when you spoke about growing up and realising our parents are also still learning and figuring life out like we are. I have been realising this so heavily lately. This transition into adulthood is crazy.
Yea I finally realized it at 32 as I voluntarily decided to step away from my decade long professional career. It's been a wild decade but I'd rather not have another decade like it. I'd rather do something else, something more fulfilling and enriching than slaving away for corporations, chasing money and women and an empty lifestyle.
im 13. I have been thinking of this for maybe months now. Whats the point? Whats the point of trying my best doing everything I could if im gonna die one day. Sometimes I just want to give up, if there isnt a point why am I trying? why are my parents trying their best to raise me well? I feel so much guilty about not being good enough.. They are trying their bests and im just in my room thinking why am i like this, why did they have a child like me? even when all my friends are around me I feel so alone. me and my bestfriend, we have been friends for 8 years now and she is the only one I used to feel actually happy around. now i dont even feel anything when im around her. its like im numb now, I dont know what to do but the only thing I cant get out of my mind is giving up
@@yui2413 aw my friend. I have felt like this. I have found it so hard to understand why my parents care so much sometimes. No matter how I am or what I do they are still doing their best for me. I realised that life is short, and everyone gets this chance to do something in this short time. Our parents know how short life is too, and how expensive life can be, and they have decided to use their short time and money to bring us into the world and raise us. They will always be proud because they created you. They are still learning about life, and they would know some of the feelings you feel too. I’m sure they are always wanting the best for you. I hope you feel better soon my friend
@@thebiggsy thanks ❤️
same, i’m 17 and i’m realizing more and more that my parents are also just humans trying their best
*reading the title*
me: how the hell did you know
Mara 02 lol same
Same
sameee
Felt that same way too
It's almost like he's our messenger :)
I just don't feel like myself anymore
Basicc Boy take your Time to get to know the real you... or find yourself again
Same 😢😢😢
Same, I remember hearing a song a few years ago which spoke about "being the shell of a girl I used to be" and I totally feel that now.
don't lose heart man ..... if u don't feel yourselves just stop and think about you ......... break until you can but rise back again with such inspiration to crash the skies
That's what it feels like when you living with a narcissistic, emotionally abusive and religious spouse.
May get a divorce..
Don't know if I'll be able to start again...
I’m so unhappy not knowing where I belong in this word, it’s like I keep searching for something to cure my soul and everyone around me just seems to be doing so much better and worlds away from where I could ever be. I don’t know who I am anymore and it’s eating me alive.
Sometimes yeah i feel like i dont belong here
It's funny. I still walk around assuming everyone's life is better than mine and I'm the only one struggling to figure it out. Perks of not having any friends nearby and spending way too much time alone.
It's okay to feel so. Just don't try to find what is the meaning of life. You will find it eventually. Just don't try. It will find you. I also felt everyone knows what they are doing and only I am lost. But no. No one knows what the hell they are doing the Difference is some people are not aware about that and some folks like us are aware about that which makes us feel so confused about life.! Just my thinking.
Now there’s an extremely dangerous perception to have ! That’s a big lesson I’ve learned at this stage of my life , you never know what’s going on in somebody’s mind or behind closed doors . Lose that fast or it will destroy you and when you finally realise it you will have mentally drained yourself .
@@therrienvictor8474 well there is actually a theory about some of us not belonging here, we have manifested as souls in human form but we're from other realms 🤔 I've literally always felt like I don't belong here.
I don’t even wanna be the main character in my life anymore. There’s way too many responsibilities and I hate anything to do with responsibilities.
This song explains it all that each one of us feel💔 czcams.com/video/K7Cn9-9AF50/video.html
It’s okay army 💜
yeah, same
that’s me. I got a pet bunny and regret it. it’s given me so much more to balance and I’m only 11 crying in my heart and on the outside. I feel like I’m failing in everything right now like what’s the point of it what’s the point in anything
This
" Not sure even a full lifetime is enough time to figure everything out about ourselves."
I felt goosebumps in my neck, it's such a scary reality.
Buddha says "Accept the reality, it won't be as scary as the twisted terms and conditions of google". Amen.
@@nandaveerum4399 The wise words of big belly Budda. A man of culture I see.
Just the same as we won't have all the knowledge in the world in our lifetime. People who lived before even society didn't need to figure themselves out, it's not a requirement of nature
Have you ever heard about "The Egg" story by Andy Weir? :) you might by interested.
Dive into the unknown, fly freely through it. If we knew everything in the universe, all the answers to our questions, what would be the point of living and experiencing this physical form. So play this game as if you did know everything and just have fun with where you're at on YOUR journey. Took me a long time to accept, allow, and surrender to that "reality" of the matrix. It almost took me out the game at 25 by suicide. If you surrender, the scary times you thought were scary don't seem so frightening anymore.
To me, this is the beauty of life: the more you know, the more you realize you don't know, which in turn, makes you want to know more. We're all on a journey, somewhat lost, and that's just fine.
Matthew Hyatt well said👏🏼
Funnybunny thank you!
The only difference between you and him is acceptance :) what a beautiful thing that is. I feel the same as you, a life full of mystery will only become more interesting. If you never get lost, you won’t find your way, you will find someone else’s way which will probably end up being empty for you. Love this comment
"True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing." - Socrates
I was sitting in class when i realize that i know absolutely nothing and i thought it was funny and sad at the same time
I’m 23 now. And I thought I had my life figured out.. I’ve travelled the world, got my dream job but yet I’m here right now feeling so empty, unloved, and I honestly can’t stop crying being alone with my thoughts.
Maybe you're too lonely
U need Jesus Christ - go buy a king James Bible - go pray.
I am useless but you can use me to express..
Hey
Enjoy the process
same brother
In a way, it's comforting to know that I'm not the only one feeling lost in life... I am torn between the life that I was dreaming I would have and the life that I am leading right now and I feel scared most of the time.
@Luke G If you truly believe that Jesus is coming to save you, you're delusional
@@mariamchaka2006 don't ever say that. If he actually believes in Jesus and that helps him to navigate in life he should continue believing in Jesus. None of us has it "correct" to tell others what they think is delusional or false. Whatever helps you and makes you feel better then that is what you believe in. Of course forcing your beliefs on others or harming them is not good but that is another story.
Same
setup new goal bro, i wish you are fine now
I'm going through the same phase in my life
"to stay really busy and distract myself from myself"
Totally me.
All the time my friend.
Christian Fregnan love u
Holy wow, this is me. Literally why I came upon this video. Well said.
So many people do this. It's very sad.
But what if i dont want to distract myself from myself, what if i want to phase myself and heal. Its unhealthy to just ignore when somethings wrong, i want to be able to look things face to face and say “im going to change this“...
“Distracting myself from myself” 😬 felt that.
*That's what social media does to us.............*
C exactly...
Quarantine fucked me up. I went from working a crazy amount to just nothingness. I can’t hide from me anymore
🤦🤣😬
It’s good to do some times
For too long I've tried to keep the soldier mentality: Feel nothing, Go to work, do your job, go home and rest for the next day to do it all over again. but after years of this it's all starting to break down. Humans didn't evolve to be machines at some company. now that I have my shit together financially it's time to find a sense of purpose in this life.
hows it going? are u already quit ur job?
Yes, I hate working it makes me so bored and sad, I'm always changing my job, and now I don't know where to go, I need to think of something, make my own business so I could spend my life traveling the world, thats all I want
@@The6Eternal6Dark6Lord yeah i got it, i just quit my job yesterday and without another lined up
It’s true they didn’t, that’s why they (humans) would eventually be replaced by actual machines, and it’s already happening. All this grinding and hard work would be for absolutely nothing.
That’s where I’m at right now it’s a dark lonely road. There’s still people who do this everyday and are okay with it. It’s a horrible repeated cycle that’s why many of us are lost
I'm 54 and let me tell y'all, these questions don't just stop when you get older. I really appreciate this video. Thank you, Nathaniel.
In fact, it's harder as we get older

“These pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them.” Wow
It's sufi actually (in case you know it), I mean Rumi, I love his stuff and it's because of him and 2 other guys that have absolutely amazing words and philosophy that I became a sufist, you should check it, if you want to 🙂
@@yazanlavigne which other 2 guys?
@@zubithedev Chams Tabrizi and my favorite mohyiddin ibn arabi
@@yazanlavigne Shams ( his name means the sun, which is so cool) was Rumi's teacher.

I'll look into mohiuddin ibn arabi.
@@zubithedev of course I did read that book, absolutely amazing 🙂
I dont feel like I have a purpose in life. I worked at McDonald's and now I'm working at a gas station. I'm clueless. Life hit me so fast
It's okay my man. I felt like that too at some points, but now I'm learning to just experience as much as i can, because that's what life is. Other people's purpose ain't yours, so define your version of it. I struggle with it sometimes, and it's not an easy thing, because of how we were socially conditioned, since birth.
Curtiss Christenson Your purpose is to love and know Jesus. Thats all our purpose. God created us for himself. There will always be an emptiness in you that ony God himself can fill. Thats why people seek out different stuff in life to fill that void in you thats why they try drugs and do things that are crazy or work themselves to death to not think about the inevitable there is death coming to us all and weather you know and given your life to Christ or you didn’t you will then know that there really is a heaven and a hell. Seek Jesus.
Terrie s. Bruh there is no purpose to life there is no hatred no happiness no god it’s all an illusion there is nothing
@@armanlifts only God can reveal truth. That's who you need to ask to show you the truth. That's why you have responded to my post. That is how I know God wants you to know Him. God is leading you to the truth now. Trust and ask God to reveal the truth to you. I would like to ask you to listen to thos pastor Andrew Farley he talks a lot about the falsehoods of Christianity we have been told for years and the actual truth of the gospel. I'll be praying for you. God is really real bro. We all have been in darkness until God reveals the light of His truth. Jesus is the true and living God my dude. Ask Him to help you. All you need to do is believe on Jesus and who he is and what he did on the cross for the world and you will be saved. He came for you and me so that we can be made in right standing with him.
This whole life is something my guy so we can't ever say it's nothing. Our life might feel like nothing but its because we all live in this fallen and broken world. But when Jesus return He's going to make it all right and perfect like it was in the beginning before the fall of Adam and Eve.
I am next level confused. I don’t know what I want, who I am, or what „living life“ even means. I feel a tad alienated
So many people get this feeling and trust me nothing in this world will ever fill that void inside of us. No relationship, no amount of money, no cars or dream job will fill that void deep down. The only solution to fix this kind of emptiness and feel truly loved is to have Jesus Christ. Not the Jesus that the world preaches about and religion, but a personal relationship with Jesus which is nothing like the world can give. Worship Him in Spirit and in Truth, and just call out for Him and he’ll be there. I hope this helps. You may not consider it but please I’m begging for your own sake just to give it a try. Have a blessed day and life my friend x
I was watching video, started having breakdown, called mom and cried to her for 15 minutes.
Now i sit here with a nice cup of tea.
Youre lucky you have a mom who will listen to you cry and complain until you feel better. My mom would ignore me
Please do a video on how to deal with a sense of unwilling to work hard? Or on depression?
Can you please like this comment so he can see it?
You read my mind!

Hey I actually just saw a podcast the other day by an entrepreneur named Gary Vee and he touched on the subject of laziness. This helped me personally make a few important decisions in my life, he thinks that being lazy is actually a good thing in the sense of it prevents you from doing stuff you don't want to do. Now yes there are some things that Need to be done. But laziness isn't being lazy it's just not finding something that really gives you that push and drive to go out and do stuff. Say for example me, I'm an artist. I have done all art all my life, but lately I have been lazy about it and feeling unproductive for the past year about it and I came to the realization that I'm simply not interested in it anymore and I rather go skateboard or learn music. So don't think of it as being lazy, but your body giving you an important lesson and insight into what you want and dont want.
You russian bro
@@bharatbhaskaronkarnath Serbian
you know you’re lost when you’re watching this and start crying 🙋🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️
Caitlyn Zampogna me right now
😭
No you're lost when you watch it and do not cry
yup :(
I’m sixteen and I’m lonely all the time and I don’t know what to do. I never fit in. And I’m a disappointment to my parents. :/
Don’t overthink, live in the moment, be loving & caring & don’t sweat the small stuff. Much easier said than done, but do-able with practice. ❤️
"It doesn't affect me, but it does, we're social creatures" that part hit home
I hope at the end, everyone here, we all figure things out 🙏🏻
i hope that too 😢 thank u
New day back at it let’s get it
We always do 🙏🏾
Personally…
We won’t and we shouldn’t wish either. Because, life it seems was meant to be experienced and not understanding everything is one of those inclusive experiences you are supposed to have in your life. So, don’t wait to figure anything out. Just reach out, be compassionate, just love, love and love again right till the end. God bless you all.
Or you can not figure things out, and that's fine too. Not everything can be figured out, understood. The universe is a mystery, as is life. No one really has the answers. We can only go along for this strange ride, and enjoy it and each other.
"It's okay to not be okay all the time"
It's taken me years to learn this lesson. I think I needed to learn it so I can start slowly moving forward again.
I'm in the process of that, fear of failure is one of my main concerns. But I'm trying to understand it... It's soo hard!
but what if you constantly feel not okay?
heleen idk bro
heleen seek help. therapy
but what if u not okay all the time
I'm tired. I’m tired of waking up and feeling like nothing I do matters. I’m tired of trying my best and feeling like I’ve failed. I’m tired of feeling like a burden on my family and friends. I’m tired of opening up to people I trust and being told I’ll get over it, or being told your feelings are not as valid as mine. I’m tired of everything. I’m tired
I'm about to finish my college degree and I am still as clueless as I was 4 years ago. Damn, I wish I could just wake up one day and know exactly what I want to do with my life.
Feeling excatly the same...in fact I went backonto uni hoping it would give me some direction...finishing degree and still didn't get my answers ..just another certificate added to the collection 😢🙈
i’ve been feeling so lost lately. i withdrew out of nursing school on sunday, and have spent all week crying not knowing who i am and what i want to do. i feel like i’m not being 100% true to my core and i need to figure out what that is. i know the answer will show itself eventually, i just need open eyes to be receptive to what my next path is. thank you for this.
Victoria Hartmann 3 weeks prior to this comment. i hope you’re doing well now and are moving forward. ❤️

@@victoriahartmann9070 oh miss you've got my dream life (just replace the boyfriend with girlfriend) .... LOL
To hear you are happy after your initial comment of 3 months ago, is such a relief because I’m in a similar position. About to start nursing school but not feeling the same passion and motivation to do it. Feeling like I need to take a step back and center myself again. So happy to hear things have worked out for you!!
Victoria Hartmann sending you love ❤️ on your journey ❤️
I'm 21 and I've never felt so lost in my life. Becoming independent and getting to know more about myself and who I really am (my mom sheltered me too much, so I never got to figure myself out and experience different things) has been overwhelming. I mean, so much has improved in my life recently, but I guess it's human nature to always want more. It's frustrating but I just have to keep reminding myself it will all make sense in time. The person I was last year would never have imagined that I would be in the position I am right now. So I'm trying my best to myself that everything is part of the process, even painful moments like these.
I feel very much like yourself. However, we will never figure everything out. The more we learn, the more we realise how much we don't know. All you can do is what feels right at the time and never regret because you can't change the past. I was also very sheltered, resulting in me becoming very anxious and overwhelmed easily, but I've realised that we need to challenge those feelings to progress and come to our own conclusions. And most of the time, it isn't as scary as we anticipated.
So relax, you're doing fine and you're so damn young! Take opportunities by the horns and don't forget to look at how far you have come. Good luck 😊
Im in the same boat. In 2019 I changed majors/career paths 3 times. I went from not knowing what I wanted to do, to Geology, to joining the navy, and now to doing graphic design.
It seems like to me that everyone i know around me already knows what they want to do while im still stuck here. Right now, all I hope for is for graphic design to be the career path for me and my goal is to move to NYC
I just related to this way too much
If you need to talk just message
It's just so heartwarming to know that we're all that lost :) because that means it's ok
I’m so lost man, no motivation, no confidence, don’t know my passions, 21,broke, and I feel alone. Feel like I’m just floating in life not living life.

2020 is the hardest year ever! I’ve never been so lost, broke and exhausted from trying and trying with no outcome.
I am lost.
But I’m trying my best, I’m surrounding myself by love... still lost though, nothing is happening, nor moving to the right path.
boy i wish that wasn't true 4 me 2.that's how i am.being lost,broke ,trying with no outcome sux really bad.i'm as lost as ever. like u nothing is happening 4 me either no matter how i try.:(
You’ve described how I feel right now perfectly. There’s comfort in knowing you’re not the only one.
I don’t know where I’m suppose to be in life, what my purpose is, what I’m suppose to dedicate my life to. Working for others is not what I want to dedicate my life doing but idk how to get out.
this is exactly how i've been feeling, especially now on a gap year. I fear that this year is just gonna pass me by with this feeling of cluelessness coming back often. Feels like an existential crisis
freedoom I am ending a gap year this month and trying to look back on it. There aren't many outside achievements, but I did grow internally. I suppose that's the important part
I did a gap year a few years back.
Best thing I ever done.
Really.
I didn’t do a lot of things really, but holy shit I actually know who I am now. I have grown so much mentally and my friends who didn’t took a gap year is still figuring that out.
I am now doing honours in psych. So you don’t get lazy on a gap year, much unlike people want to tell you.
Just use this year to be something a lot of people try to ignore - spend time with themselves.
I want to take a gap year so bad - I'm blessed with a full ride scholarship though, and I'd lose it all if I did. I feel stuck.
omg, I relate to this so much; I thought I was alone in this. I'm also taking a gap year now, before going off to college, and I don't remember having ever been this clueless before in my life. If you want to talk whenever, hit me up!
@@david.godlewski I missed out on a gap year, too. Have as few things and expenses you can. Take whatever gaps you do have, every summer and vacation day possible. It isn't the same, but it will help. All the best to you.

So true

Nah, this was waaay before covid.
I’ve been thinking about what I want to do with my life ever since I could remember
same, and I still don’t know
I really feel at peace whenever I hear you expressing and explaining your thoughts Nathan. I feel like I'm not alone in striving to live, or to feel alive.
You’re an incredible film maker my friend.
Just stay in the now. The power of NOW, Dont take this life to serious. Will be fine. Your doing awesome man. 😀
Re-reading NOW
Nathaniel, thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences. "It's okay, to not be okay all the time" love it!!
Your videos are such a breath of fresh air! Every one of them makes me feel seen and remember that we, as humans, are very complicated beings and can access different parts of ourselves at different times. What I have learnt through therapy is self-compassion and this video is a lovely reminder on, what feels like, a lonely Thursday evening that everything is okay. Thank you!
I've been feeling lost in my Uni days. I've taken back for two years trying to find the reason why i'm going there (I was kind of forced to attend that uni)
And in the last year of uni, i figured out that i have no idea AT ALL.
I lost two years of my time doing things i don't even remember.
And then i saw a movie, someone gave the lead a flower called Gerbera bcause she felt lost on her life (she quit her job)
When she asked why Gerbera, he said "Gerbera has a meaning which is...one step. Just take one step at a time, something you can do at the moment whether it's eating, taking shower, sleeping or doing laundry. And just keep taking one step. I wish you good luck"
So I did... It was really hard, i remembered i started from taking shower and clear my mind. Declutter my room. And then i asked friend to help me finish uni.
And here's I am now managing my own business.
For those in their 20s (or others), Just take one step at a time...and don't think too much.
Have a nice day 💜
THETAHAPPY Thank you so so much for sharing you experience and writing this . This helped me so much and you’re appreciated
THETAHAPPY ❤️ you should be proud of yourself
Such good advice. So pleased it turned out right for you.
thank you for such beautiful words! could you tell me which movie this quote comes from?
That words! Can you tell me the name of the movie? ♥
Everything about this was so comforting... cinematography, narration, soundtrack... thank you :)
If you feel empty or/and lost, just go out there and try to find someone to help, and then you'll have found the true happiness and the true connection with the people, it comes from itself, for me, it works and it gives me meaning or at least a sense of living and it feels amazing.
Who should I help? Where should I start?
I love you for all the help you give me and for the good energy you are leaving in the world for so many people. Thank you for being yourself!

This hit me hard. 🙌

I like your channel bro. Thanks for watching.
@@nathanieldrew Right back at you man. Thank you
Elisha the goat
Woooaah Elisha what's up. Your and Nathaniel videos are my go to when im feeling down or uncertain.
So wait I'm kinda dumb, what is the right order.
This is so true and athletic and moving. Thank you, it’s the video I found myself coming back to every time I’m overwhelmed
I have just found your channel. I can't explain how much I need to hear all of this right now. Everything you say resonates. Thank you so much for doing what you are doing
You don't know how much I needed this video 😭😭😭😭😭 I just feel so damn lost
Bosha Mochabo I am so totally here for you!!
Its okay. You will find your way, just keep looking and good things and opportunities will show themselves!
Rgon Productions oh
Man I’m here with you
Been lost for awhile now🤧
Thank you guys 🙏🙏❤
That phone call (to mom & dad?) at the end was a nice touch.
I have to say I came across your videos at the right time. Unbelievably insightful, relatable and calming brother. Thank you and hope you’re keeping safe during the pandemic.
Peace ✌🏾
Thank you for your honesty!! I was feeling clueless today and this made me feel a bit better!
Damn this is such an honest video essay.
“It’s okay not to be okay all the time” 👌🏻
I love the fact that you bring your parents into a lot of videos. Your relationship with them is beautiful. ❤️
I really resonate with your work. This video is very powerful and extremely motivating for me, as I too feel lost and aimless. I've invested thousands of dollars into online courses, but your work is more of a guidepost to me than any of those things that I felt like I had to have at the time. Thank you for making this beautiful video.
At 21 I never thought I would be where I am, I've been through so many trials and hard times in life both physical and mental. Some of which are things that the 8 year old version of me wouldn't beleive. The truth is I'm not in the best position in my life, but I've came a long way and overcame countless hardships that a lot of people dont go through. I'm not happy but I find peace in the fact that if I died today no one can say I didn't try.
The fact that you at the age of 22 reflect over you life and be able to ask questions, express feelings vocally, says so much about how smart and beautiful young man you are. Trust me the majority of people don’t even have the words to express or give language to their feelings or conditions, they just live and die. Good job, your friend from Sweden
I want to thank you for making this video. I'm feeling so bad and overwelming lately and watching your videos make me feel much better🤗😘 send you a huge hug from Argentina 💖
This channel deserves to be more recognize.
You’re amazing. Thank you.
You’re such a genuine, beautiful soul.
It took me years to realize the world didn't hate me, I was doing this to myself. Your conscious mind leads. Your subconscious mind protects, justifies, and chooses how you remember. Self doubt, fear, anything that stops you in your tracks, are from your subconscious. Feeling lost or confused come from conflict between what your conscious mind wants and subconscious mind can't imagine. It means you're storing things in your subconscious mind, little messages you instantly think about, that are not part of you. What you can/can't do. What's possible/impossible. What you should/shouldn't do. You can't fly. I know you can. People and situations dump junk on you all day long, most of which is negative, or simply not true. If you change how you respond, how you think about this bunk, over time, you will learn what is you and store that away. The rest gets dumped through meditation at the end of the day. That is the heart of self discovery, accession, awakening, moving to a higher self. Young children and babies believe they can do no wrong because nothing negative has been stored. We teach them that stuff. Do this, do that, or else this. You're born with only 2 fears. Falling and suffocation (drowning). The rest you learned whether you wanted to or not. Your spirit has been very patient with you, but it can only take so much. It's time to release all of this goop you've been carrying around through no fault of your own. You've opened your eyes to the real you for the first time. Now, it's time to see what you can do with it. Sure, it's hard. Awkward at first. Like it was learning to ride a bike. You will fall. You will fail. You will get hurt. People who loved you, may hate the new you. Criticize you mercilessly. Half your brain will tell you, you can't do this. Tell that half, too bad. I'm doing this no matter what. Fail, get back up, and repeat as needed until you reach success. And, celebrate your success in your own way, to the max. Tiny little things make you who you are and tiny little successes lead to massive results. No one can do this but you. Are you still reading this stuff? What the hell are you waiting for? Get outta here. Go, do, find, learn, create - YOU!
thank you for this!
Thank you so much!
Thank you so fucking much
That's really inspiring
I love this 💗
Thank you so much for this, it's a relief to be remind of the fact that feeling lost is a part of being human, we all experience this, we're not alone in this 💛 thankyou
Your videos bring me so much calm, it relieves a lot of anxiety. It makes me feel like I am not this weird human being that doesn't know what I am doing, or if I am even doing anything at all.
5 minutes before I watched this, I sent my official request to drop out of uni. I'm feeling so lost right now and you really put me at ease with this video - thank you.
virtual hug!
@@mariee_e Thank you!!
I dropped out and learned more in the year afterwards than the year I spent in school. It was the best decision I ever made. Incredibly difficult at the time. Hard to tell my parents and people who saw it as failure or a huge risk. But I believed in my ability to learn on my own, seek help from people smarter than me, and make progress everyday towards what I wanted. It worked out really well and now it seems like it was such an obvious decision. The existential questions have never stopped but materially and in terms of my skills development it was the fastest path. Good luck with the next phase of your life's journey!
@@MichaelThomas2477 just curious, what are you doing now? I'm not in school either, and I know what I want generally, but I like knowing how other people go about doing this kind of thing too
@@lillywoods8838 It helps to know other people are confused/scared/anxious about the same thing too :)❤
i’ve never felt so inadequate til now, just merely realized that i’m not really “ happy. “ i just numbed the pain almost constricting myself from such feelings- i want to feel joy in the purest form as love, but i’m immensely terrified. sorry this is unimportant but felt like saying it
It is not unimportant! I think for being able to actually live, we should feel this way at least once. It can be really scary, hard and painful, but it's needed. Only then we'll be able to grow. We got to be courageous and try to find the path that would give us the true satisfaction and contentment.
Ala thank you for sharing such an prodigious paragraph! it truly has made me realize the many “ doors “ that are openly available with emotional related difficulties, i can never stress how much i appreciate it.- have a nice day
I numbed my pain so much I don’t even feel anymore. It’s called apathy and what can I say it’s not that bad. But not great either
I find you so unbelievably relatable. As if you are going along with a collective consciousness that is leading to the same question. I could watch these for hours on end and realise that I am not alone in being, in feeling alone, in feeling lonely. In not having the answers that we all seek. I am coming to believe the beauty is in the not knowing what is next and the curiosity that comes from that. Creatures of habit, creatures of curiosity and for us, creatures of attaining insight. If not only insight to the fact we indeed have none. Thankyou
Life is luck. Life depends on how you where loved as a child, you have no control over that. It's luck who you meet, who you fall in love with and who loves you. It's luck how tall you are and what your personality is like. Some people are just lucky in life others struggle all their life.
Personality can be found anywhere tho
I feel that family thing to ANOTHER LEVEL
im having a mental breakdown and eating bags of hershey kisses right now
I know it's not funny you having a breakdown but I laughed so hard. Sorry
m&ms and ben jerrys right here
*I'm eating bags of Hi-Chews...*
Pass them here
I feel like I should eat ice cream to make myself feel better.😞
"It's ok to not be ok all the time" - The core of Buddhist teaching is to achieve longlasting happiness. They say the main reason why we're not able to be happy all the time is due to our needs and lusts. We are chained to a wheel of these things.
Thank you, Nath, it was so compassionate :)
I am here at work at 5 am doing absolutely nothing (night shift "guard") looking for a purpose in this work and
trying to convince myself not to quit and just be grateful that I even have a job at this period....
and then you come up in my search results of " lack of purpose motivation "
and you're so raw and real with your emotions, and it feels... like the missing piece...
Thank You ! subscribing
Amazing cinematography. Thank you for this video and for your honesty ❤️
"Hey, are you or you think you thought you'd be at age 53?"

Ahahahhaaa
So I’m 55 I never ever intended my life to be how it is on purpose. It’s been a wild ride and still is. Ever heard when the going is tough, you just have to be toughfer. Lol I don’t know how to spell it.🍀🍀🍀

I totally relate with everything you say and that helps me not feel so alone in this mundane and superficial world.
Thank you so much for this video, I rewatch it every time I feel uncertainty and it really helps, so wise things are talked here, this is priceless, I truly love it, thank you!
I watched this while I was pooping and I've never felt more inspired.
Inspiration happens on the toilet. HAH
OMG😂

I'm back here and I'm feeling kinda lost at the moment
Hey Nathaliel! I love your channel and I just need to say this: you’re a true yogi! There’s so much of the yoga philosophy in what you share, it’s delightful 🙏🏼 Thank you
Thank you for sharing and your honesty around these topics. We all need more of this. Real and authentic., so refreshing ❤️

Oh you're cool
This story of yours may have been from a few years ago, but it resonates true to this day. The feelings of being confused and lost is something we all go through at all stages of our life. Similar to you, it was around my mid-20s when my mother had made it clear that it was okay and normal to feel this way. These were powerful words for me to hear and hopefully many of the people hearing your story will feel better as well
This video makes me feel steady and less alone in my journey right now
Thank you 🖤
You are so blessed to have such loving ,understanding, intelligent parents to talk with.They in return also blessed to have you in their lives.
I love my parents but it would be so incredible if they were more cultured and intelligent. I can't turn to them for much other than the unconditional love because we are so far separated in our beliefs and ideas.
For me I feel lost all the time, I feel crippled bye fear and doubt.

What a beautiful video! I have found your channel looking for an italian lesson, but here I am (practicing my english) validating that I'm human been! Thank you !
That quote "These pains you feel are messengers" hit something in me.. teared up instantly. I've been having depression and feeling lost after moving to a new country last year. Things didn't go as planned at all, it's been intense, and i'm trying to figure out my next steps now. I'm 30 next year and the feeling of approaching that milestone makes me think about my life and where it's going, and it's a paralysing thought.
