I’m unemployed and have little to show for 15 years of hard work at jobs I didn’t give a damn about. The hardest part about this job is knowing you’re wasting your life. Many jobs I was so relieved when I actually got fired or had the balls to quit. Eventually I run out of $$ and go begging for jobs but now I barely have it in me to even do that.
i feel that. Sorta same boat. Money doesnt mean anything to me.. but in a society that only cares about that it makes it easy to gravitate back towards it. :/
I'm super fortunate to have family support so every time I've worked a dead end job I get to a point that I realize I'm wasting my time and not earning enough money to be able to save or be independent. I'm a decently talented musician, gardener, and artist but I've hit dead ends every time I try to monetize any of those things. I'd love to be able to make an income growing psylocybin mushrooms cause it's something I enjoy and believe in but I don't wanna risk a lengthy prison sentence. I just wanna do something I enjoy and be able to afford to ride my motorcycle and pay for my food and housing but unfortunately it seems like a fantasy at this point. It's also frustrating to watch influencers become filthy rich for perpetuating damaging ideas. I often fantasize about selling everything but my bicycle and guitar and roaming the land foraging mushrooms but I have animals to care for. I just wish the 1% would realize giving away some of their wealth would make them happier than hoarding it all.
@@maxatrillionfatstacks i think we the same person lol I ride motorcycle and play guitar and into the same things. It feels like every job is a dead end to me cuz I learn fast and than get bored with it. I wasn't meant to do one lame job for a lifetime. Psilocybin are great and have helped me through alot of trauma and drug addiction with cocaine specifically. I am lucky to have a decent family but they don't have much money being mostly single mothers and women who try hard but don't necessarily do that well. Hope you find peace somehow. And me too.
@@maxatrillionfatstacks @kylec1411 I play guitar too, just the main chords lol. At my old job I’d fantasize about being a hobo and making $ from busking.
get your CDL and go out on the road, make 6 figures to listen to podcasts, then branch out into whatever from there.
Hes trying to convince you to never work pointlessly for some one else, but instead do a vocation you are passionate about....if you perfect it, it wont even feel like work.
Yes
Exactly ❤🙏
The point is to earn a livelihood by doing something you enjoy and also offering some kind of service to other people…
What a wonderful life to wake up and know that you’re doing stuff with purpose but also fun…
Sure. I find as long as i don't make that passion a means to an end or work at it all the time. Otherwise i might kill or make mundane that very passion.
Yes but he's not taking in to account many people are happy doing it, or have no ability to do something different. Mortgages need to be paid, etc. This chump has never done a proper days work in his life. He's studied, lived in monasteries, he's just been a perpetual student.
@@hunterluxton5976thank you lol, finally someone said it. If we all pursued passion projects and nothing else like this fool, nothing would get done and our world would be shit😂
These days it seems like everyone is self-obsessed, egotistic, and obsessed with being famous and getting rich. I’m 35 and have never been more level headed in my life. The need to show off to people or impress them is gone completely and I feel free of the judgment of others. I maintain respect for others and live within society’s rules, but other than that I feel like I found the truth. When I see someone in a $90,000+ vehicle sitting in traffic I actually feel bad for the person, they still don’t have enough money in their mind, they spent what is equal to a lifetime of work in some countries on a vehicle that will rust in 8 years. Happiness is completely separate from material things. Being comfortable and not needing for anything essential is euphoric to me.
Bro, are you me? 36, finished with showing off as well. Finding the "truth" is what it's all about.
Nice comment
It’s a mental disease, because there is always someone who has more, and you will never be satisfied if you live to only chase wealth. There needs to be balance. I stopped working my second job because I blasted all the money on weekends to compensate for not being around my Family. Money can buy you experiences and possessions but happiness is innate and experienced by poor, working poor middle class, and wealthy individuals. And just the same they all experience sadness. Do things that make you happy, I’m not talking about addictions, I’m talking about the things that enrich your life, be with family, friends, enjoy meaningful hobbies, take care of your body(so it can take care of you) through lifestyle eating/exercise, education(not just higher learning, CZcams lol(my coworker calls it CZcams University)seriously, and just wisdom from others. Remove the negative forces that drag you down, toxic people. And enjoy your solitude as well. ❤ We are all learning.
Wealthy is to need less and less by the years
Screw society, live by your own rules and their sheep mindset doesn't effect you.
The problem that too many people fail to realize about the pursuit of happiness is that happiness is always fleeting. Once you find happiness it is already running out on you.
Joy is what you must seek. And joy is something you already have, you just forgot you need to look inward to find it😊.
Seek fulfillment, you crackheads. The emotions will follow.
Y'all just bouncing from one chemical addiction to another.
If "Joy, happiness, bliss," etc... is all you need, then I know guy that can literally package & deliver that to you dopeheads.
True wealth is having fertile land and knowing how to cultivate it. I always think that in an apocalypse, he who has the resources wins. Access to fresh water. Knowledge to repair what is broken. Money is just paper.
I have been thinking about the same, as a matter of fact the ones to survive will be the ones with water, land (shelter and produce food), and unfortunately guns
I'm trying to learn how to cultivate now. Everyone needs it.
The people that didn’t plan will take your resources by force. You have to sleep at some point
We would have to give up facebook and communicate in person!
He whom has the resources becomes the target at that point.
Been broke most of my whole life. Worked at all kinds of jobs. Hated most of them. I'm 63 now. But I gotta say, it all wasn't so bad. Had an amazing life. Still do. And recently, and weirdly and incredibly, maybe three years ago, a large sum just dropped into my lap, seemingly from out of nowhere, and it was legitimate and legal. I still have most of it. Bought a house cash. Same with the car. I don't give a damn anymore about my "credit score". People only need credit scores to get a house or a car. My life really hasn't changed that much. I'm just as content. So what's the point of my tale? I have no idea. Have a great day, everyone.
I'm 42, worked my whole life, military for 10 years, all of my 20s, and now I am an intensive care nurse and have been a long time. There are parts in each that were Nobel and honorable. However, at the end of the day each became a job and nothing more. The world we live in and the people in it prevent the enjoyment of any profession, given enough time. Honestly, I would rather have a dump truck and a backhoe and dig holes for a living, something solitary and simple, that would leave my mind free to roam.
Everytime i think about doing a job application i have a panic attack
😂😂😂
well, thank you. I thought I was the same..
Happened to me the day i had to find a job after finishing my highschool... This didn't end until today, almost 47 years old...
Don’t. Alan Watts isn’t saying working a job is necessarily evil. You have to make money on todays day, don’t let it scare you too much. Imagine being like my ancestors who were sent over to America and told they had to work a minimum 16 hours a day in the scorching heat everyday forever with no pay. You do what you have to do unfortunately, if you don’t want to start your own business. Don’t over think it though
Don't be scared in my 40 years of working life most jobs are quite meaningless and you will meet some good people and some terrible people. Probably at no point in your life you will think that you should have done more work
There was a time when women didn't have to work...
I don't need a job or money. I need ways of existence, roof over my head, clothes on my body, food in my body, means of getting from point A to point B, etc. Unfortunately, we live in a system, where you can't have any of it without money which comes from doing a job.
Then I guess we need a new system. Clearly nobody in their right mind actually likes it, and it is contributing nothing to human progress. It is at best keeping us stagnant, if not regressing us as a civilization.
Celebrity kids and stupid people making stupid people rich and famous enters the chat!
To much of a good thing is a bad thing .
The western world is getting dumber
In order to do the things u enjoy or get the things u need someone has to work to provide u those objects
-So what did you do today?
-I listened to Alan Watts speak while watching drone cinematic footage.
Not a bad way to spend the day ;)

Hmm that's funny. I did the same thing.

Right... I can't stand watching video and feel like I'm in a locker room getting a speech from that Denzel Washington movie.
Personally I've found working the jobs I've had to be soul sucking, monotonous, the epitome of boredom and repetition, maddening, no wonder I drank and drugged.
Currently doing the same thing...

@@prettyboishah2898 huh? Dude read the first post geez...
Dude, you're a native English speaker. You can sell your property, and move to Vietnam, or Thailand to work as an English teacher. This job is in high demand there. Native English teacher has a pretty good salary there, the rent, the food is cheap, so you can work for a year, then travel for another country (Indonesia, Laos, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Goa - they have a bloody good acid there, man!), then repeat... There are many people from the US, Britain, Germany, Canada, who don't want to come back to their motherlands. I really want to go to amazing Vietnam again, but i currently can't, 'cause there's a f...war in my country, I'm Ukrainian... Stop whining, and live your life to the full🎉
That’s the point of forcing us to do what we don’t want to do. That we will become alcoholics and drug addicts THATS is what the government wants.
Many thanks for posting this with no background music, the audio is clear and with no unnecessary distraction.
now that's odd. how could one get his inspiration without timpanis?
I was an automation engineer. I left that lucrative career because I sold, designed, and built systems that made the executives money as the general employees were dismissed. When I saw that I wiped out 25% of a town's employment, I finally saw I couldn't do this. I chose a vocation and a comparatively meager income (same as my first year after college 30 yrs ago) but now I help people rather than destroy towns.
I’ve never heard more people sneezing and coughing in my life 🤦♂️ an amazing talk and every single person is having sneezing and coughing fits.
super annoying!
It's called targeting
Either he was a target or he was aware that his "message" was to be intentionally disrupted and underhandedly disparaged
There's only so much smoke anyone can tolerate.
Posh school is a good start in not having to work.
That's what happens when everyone sits in a small room smoking for over an hour...
I thought the sane thing dude! Hilarious you said that.
We spend our finite time on earth trying to earn something the govt prints for free. The ultimate crime against humanity.
Exactly. Buy bitcoin, sit back and enjoy life. The fiat shit money can just be used to pay bills and spend on fun things🚀🚀🚀
Governments produce the legal tender currencies and sell to backs at face value..central banks can simply buy real assets and financial assets from an empty account. All the other banks including the central banks create new fiat currencies electronically..97 percent or more new fiat currency is numbers on a computer in a bank..
Why would you sell your life one hour at a time for fiat currency or save fiat currency when it can only lose buying power..pretend monopoly money endorsed by those who rule over you..
Well...that’s at least 1 CAH
Facts!!
This is why we continue to relive different lives. Break the cycle, awaken my little gods
Life is such a trip. I worked a corporate job till i was ready to end it all. Then i quit and said i will give music 5 years and if i cant make a living, i will give up. Its been 13 years and im still debating on giving up almost every day. I think about it but its not possible. Like giving up food or air. I feel like im breathing air that barely has enough oxygen to keep me alive. Oh well...
Don't ever give up.
Keep working toward your dream, you can get it!
@@craycrayray2432 I really hope so!
@@SupersonicDW420 Takes a pair, to pursue your passion. Most folks live in fear, you didn't that means you already won!
Do you work in music? That would be an absolute dream. To let your heart be expressed.
Regret nothing we need more people like you. Thank you for quitting the corporation crap game.
When i listen to Alan Watts i normally get taken to a place of peace and inner enlightenment but this video is like im chatting to a bloke in a doctor's waiting room in the middle of flu season!!!
😂
Haha
I actually really like my job. I started my own career out of pure passion and turned it into a business which later transitioned into a good job where I don't have to work that hard anymore as I get older. I work about 20 hours per week sitting on my couch Answering the phone and helping people with technical problems and I make about $124,000 per year. I earned it!
lucky u
@@freeupminds there's no luck whatsoever about it!
@@freeupmindsluck happens when opportunity meets preparation.
Doubt it
Awwwwww. The wisdom of this man! We need this more than ever. I wonder what he would have to say about the coming AI revolution?
I found a shift came for me when I stopped believing I needed money, NO I need food, shelter, friendship etc. Money can be a means to an end but it's worth less than toilet paper when it comes to meeting ACTUAL needs. Refer to Maslow's pyramid.
I cannot have a place to live without money. It is literally illegal to live off the land. So I must own property that ties me to taxes indefinitely. It is good to stay busy and amazing to do something you enjoy for a means of providing for my family. Living off grid is becoming more and more impossible due to my local laws. I agree this is a trap and money is simply made up to make trading goods and services easier. However there is no way out of this rigged game currently.
What are you talking about it’s illegal to live off the land ?

Start researching money manifestation. Money is an unlimited energy source that you can tap into, I would start with Neville Goddard.
@@markmarramusicI think he means it isn't like it was back in human history, when you could find a small piece of ground to call your own, build your dwelling on it, farm enough in the small area surrounding it to eat and enjoy the rest of your time as you see fit. Want that tiny bit of land? Apparently it belongs to people who you don't remember giving the rights to - since this earth is for all, human or otherwise - but at some point a bunch of elites and snobs decided they got to sell that to the rest of us for a fee. And so on
Well, it would be hard work, but even this scenario isn’t real. “Illegal” is a concept; it’s not real, unless you believe it is.
Property tax is not real. You can get that property off the register. It just takes work to do it. Is that the kind of work you’re interested in?
A so called wisdom from a guy who never done this hard dirty work in his live.
That's a worthy notion. He can go swab a deck or scrub a public toilet.
Oh he did, maybe you should look into his CV before being a smartass ^^
True but it is still fun to listen to him.
I love this man's laughter and jokes!
Brilliant mind!
Absolutely PROPHETIC Alan
To see these negative comments towards a man that see's & speaks words beyond his time, it's like some one seeing those majestic mountains & calling them ugly & useless. I guess there has to bad to see good...mad respect for Mr Alan Watts. Btw.. you choose to have the mortgage, if living in a monastery or it's a mortgage gives you peace, I hope you find it.
People hate the player...not the game!
This man had an amazing range of knowledge. Relevant topic. Timeless!
He's so wise. Ahead of his time and relevant and in this discourse,Thank you.
Food for thought for the masses
Thankyou for posting
He has summed up my life. Trying to make mistakes on my own less often.
I get the impression Alan Watts was suggesting a universal basic income and I agree with him. Every other animal species expends very little time working for food and housing, working for the basics. Most of their time is resting on the grass or playing around. When did humans become so neurotic and uptight?? 🤔
Except from dogs and a few other animals , all animals are constantly looking for food. Have you ever seen a chicken going a minute without his beak down looking for small insect/grains etc
We are born into a system that induces us into this state of being that is not aligned with our true nature
are we chicken ?@@immasavage2905
@@immasavage2905 Well, we don't really know how a chicken performs in its natural environment, do we? Rabbits spend a lot of time eating but the point is that their food is readily available, not rationed by big corporations if they jump through enough hoops.
Consumerism is the diseasd. JESUS is the cure
I didnt even notice all the coughing & sneezing until I scrolled around reading comments. Now thats all I hear😂 Thanks.
Nows that's all I hear, thanks 😂
I didn’t either
Sneezing and coughing has driven me crazy in society lol. Then all of a sudden I noticed it on the recordings and thought the universe was trying to tell me something. End conclusion... I'm overly aware of my surroundings causing an announce to it all.
Watts is right. Working all day for the man so that the man can get rich is absurd and futile. But one must work to survive and live. However, one should strive to find work that one likes to do and is passionate about. If this is not possible, consecrate your work as service to the Divine. This will give your work meaning and purpose.
Your job really is to find something you like or even love doing and to ignore bitter angry people who insist you work doing something you hate
Or, become the man
I love Alan Watts❤
Its easy to say but we need at least enough money for food and put a roof over our heads. Most of us don't have the luxury of having a vocation, especially if we weren't given good guidance in our formative years. The real problem falling in love with money. Nothing wrong with doing a job to earn a crust. Just don't break your back doing it
This great man Watts properly gets me in the journey.
This is the best breakdown on currency I have ever heard... Kind of a shame after spending years in college.
I love this, no stupid soundtrack , well done whoever uploaded it
Wow, it's been how many decades? And everything he said is exactly still true, truer than ever. We have not learned a thing.
55yrs
A few more viewers than usual seem to disagree or react strongly with this particular lecture.
I belive this is because he hints here at ideas that are seemingly in stark opposition or challenge to our current cultural definitions and beliefs of success, livelihood, and belonging.
Instead of his typical "you can be this," or, "we have the capacity to do this," or, "you are more wise or capable than you are lead to believe..." here he is instead implying that modern society is fucked up and arbitrary, lacking tangible purpose or direct correlation to our survival or happiness...in other words because we no longer provide directly for the wellbeing of our own communities we have substituted money and wealth as ideals for well-being and our lost connections.
This is because for over 100,000 years we lived in small communities where everyone had an role to fulfill that was important or meaningful to the community...
Now, however, only within the past few hundred or thousands of years, the dynamic has changed with the advent of wealth, and we adopted money as a stand-in for the farming, healing, music and art and other roles of importance that were indicative of survival and well-being.
He implies that our current mode of existence is perhaps not best. This makes sense because as humans we literally learn and grow by mistakes. In only 100 years, people will look back and likely think, "how foolish they were. So crude or misguided!"
More imperative is the notion that for 99% of our culture's existence, we had a great stake in our purpose and livelihood.....now however there are 400 different toothbrushes available when you are at the grocery store. Do we actually need 400 varieties? No. It's just ventures by different organizations to make a few people very wealthy and provide "a living" to a few thousand other "workers." Do you think the factory workers were really meant to be bristle assemblage connectors on a line? Do you think they really give a shit about toothbrushes or how good they are at pressing the buttons and filling out the daily reports? What a waste of a beautiful being--humans beings built and grown to move and solve problems. We are so much better than transforming the earth into dumb shit to make shareholders rich.
This is stil the Dark Ages in my opinion. But it's ok. This is how we learn and ultimately grow--both as individuals and a species--by trial and error and making mistakes.
The irony is if you DO NOT subscribe to the contemporary accepted or popular notions of work and success, you will likely be ostracized by your peers. This is actually not a huge deal in modern times, yet we are gravely terrified to object or risk ostracization because, for 100,000 years prior to this, being outcast from the community meant a greatly diminished chance of survival. We come preprogrammed with this instinct.
I believe if we all stopped acting like an idiot in one of those money booths and realized this is just a giant frenzied mad grab for as much cash and resources and comfort as we can before we die (even tho you can't take any with you)...we could come up with some good ideas and accomplish some amazing things.
Until then, we will continue to exist and behave a just chimps with better tools.
P.S. watts is merely an observer, as are we all, speaking about the contemporary from a larger, older, or at least more impartial place. He doesn't perform repeated experiments nor conduct research, nor does he always tell us what we want to hear.
Find something you love and practice it regularly!
We need a continuation of this powerful speech, Part 2 please, it was getting good and my attention in 2024. 🤗😊❤️
Bless you sir.Thanks for the liberation ❤

@@hunterluxton5976 What does his finances have to do with anything?🍻😂
@@originalkingalpha5116 I take it your referring indirectly to his social background? It has nearly everything to do with it. He was privately educated in England. We call them " public schools"', which is a bit misleading as it means private or fee paying. Students who go to these elitist establishments end up speaking with a plumby voice, which is not something foreigners are fully aware of. These fuckers end up taking all of the top jobs, go to oxbridge ( that means Oxford or cambridge) and run the country. 65% of the cabinet went to private schools, thats over 9 times the number in the general population. Over 60% went to Oxbridge. This does not make the most of British talent. Watts has an " establishment accent". That says a lot, to the average Brit - instant. The parasites we call Royals are even more loathsome, but thats another story.

So much of what he says about automation and machinery can be applied to the developments in AI and its economical implications today.
One can usually expect an attack for pointing out the disconnect between our actions and our goals, with reference this topic of jobs of work.
Thanks for making this video. Good ol' Alan Watts I like working (vs.a job(something you do for someone else for money)), and work hard here at my home and would prefer to have my own business, but as far as jobs go, I don't fit in very well and end up under employed most of my life. Here later in life, its a big stress.
Perfect timing, I'd say...
If you never risk failure, you never give yourself a chance at success
Thank you

Wouldn’t be the first step that a job doesn’t make us unhappy? Becoming happy from a job is just another level.
When he says it they listen . I have been asking why people do it since I was a child ? ..and was told " shh , because thats how it is "
I have been frustratedly objecting to it my whole adult life and told I am lazy or anti social . No one laughs , no one listens or wants to admit how absurd it is .
its not absurd, either you want to be part of the working system, or you dont. if you choose not to, then good luck to ya since you are most likely destined to failure. the system can be a comfort to those who understand how to capitalize on its benifits

I know work for myself and I do make money but there can be a lack of trust that I will be able to make enough money on my own. Thank you for providing this audio.
I suspect there's enough money , automation and ai in the world now that most people do not need to work or work maybe say 5 hours a week
You’re not alone!!! :( I feel the same way. We are all being led astray. Don’t trust anyone and question everything you hear and see.
Man Alan had it right all those years ago!! WOW
OMG the people sniffing and coughing in the background!!
Thank you for not putting background music.
Helped my Austrian reckoning grasp a deep understanding of Keynsian logic that I never accepted before and adds a lot of new questions about my love affair with bitcoin. So deep.
My love affair with BTC is that it will free me from having to work.. it’s not loving money, it’s loving the one currency we have that is truly finite. Time. I’d love to hear his view on BTC.
@@OxymoronicTonic you're right about the freedom. I've become good tat making money for the past couple of years but when I imagined all the other things I might be able to do if I didn't have to spend all my time making money I was so excited about my prospects.
I was my most happiest when i was unemployed.
I love this
The lack of money is the root of evil... more probable... lol
Most people are just trying to survive. Very few people have to privilege to do what they love for a living. I think Alan must have had one too many drinks the day he gave this speech 😊
I like money, I like having money. I don't even mind sacrificing for money. However, it is not the sole thing I focus on in life. I want enough money to be permanently stable. And, although I will sacrifice for the things I want, I will NOT sacrifice my mental health for a job. I don't care if it pays $30/hour. If it's making me depressed/anxious, I would rather be poor than work a job that ran my mental health into the ground.
I'm enlightened now
We are all one 😘💙

i understand you are liberal, but you have to play by the rules to "be one", which you do not
Wow i really needed to hear this in this moment
I tried actions intrinsic to earning money, so that I can survive, but it feels like not surviving.
I tried actions intrinsic to survival so that I can live, and so far it feels great, I basically chucked a load of seeds about, stuff is now growing from the ground like magic.
That laugh is pure wisdom
is there a continuation of this somewhere?
I have (mostly) managed to find jobs that paid me to do the things I would like to do anyway. Of course, that meant changing jobs, or even careers, more often than most and I'm sure I could have made more money. I retire in about a year and will have passive income to maintain myself. I am super excited to see what I will get into next with real freedom.
Great man! how old are you and which professional journey did u do?
He won’t answer cause it’s a troll, a robot, or just a fucking lier. Most of us are NOT happy at all with our current situation here on slave prison planet Earth. No worries the false matrix is all being taken down soon, we will all be sovereign and free. We will NOT have to PAY anyone to live on this Earth. ❤❤❤
This hits home.
This is remarkably clear audio of Master Watts despite him apparently lecturing in a dusty, groaning wooden barn, in a hay-loft full of cat dander and and the ghost of a whistling farmer. I can almost see the particles of dust in the sloping afternoon sunlight
