I’m 79 and have connected with a new purpose through the diagnosis of a dear friend and a cousin with Alzheimer’s. Now learning to be a group facilitator for caregivers. This is a new lease on life for me.
love this so much
I feel very lucky to have been able to find my purpose very early. As I grow I see more and more people who feel lost and my gratitude grows.
What was it? What is your purpose?
I think in every habit "compound pounding" effect is the best solution...
People probably know this effect but forgot about it because of being too distracted by media or thoughts etc.
in sport, in business, in relationships.
1. If you use compound pounding in sport, (exercissing for an hour) you will see no results in 5 days,but you will see big results in 100 days.
2. If you will say a good morning to people, you will see no effect in 5 days, but you will see a great difference in 100 days.
3. If you will practice the compassion for your partner and make some good deed,
you will see no or small difference in 5 days,
but you will see a great difference in 50 or 100 days,
you will see how much you mean to them.
People see this compound pounding effect in the nature,
the garden looks the same after few days, but after a 100 days it looks different.
Therefore you can not tell if your values are working after one week, because you see the effect after 100 or 140 days.
Maybe each couple should practice this technique,
If I will make something small to make my partner happy, for a little moment, they will remember these little moments,
and good calm or happy mood increases the immunity of the body by 50 percent in 4 days.
So their kids will learn the same technique.
They will learn that if they will read a book 10 minutes a day,
it has a great impact on brain.
Next time it may be 20 minutes a day.
But if you stop doing the healthy habit now... after a week it makes no difference
after 140 days the results change for worse, you loose muscles or you lose some skill or motivation etc.
Good deed may be also making a pizza or small things.
People actually enjoy small things much more than big gestures,
because it´s about living in the moment......
Big gestures (expensive car) mean that you actually burned out too much energy to make a small effect,
rather than small gestures that after time create a great effect of connection, and people like you for your authentic personality.
Love Robert Green. So much to learn from him. Read most of his books. Makes you understand yourself and others
Tremendous episode! Thank you!
My favorite episode so far.
Finally a great interview with Angus Young
I'm mid life, and I have been feeling pretty much at a loss for what to do with myself, navigating internal conflict; healing from a pretty traumatic upbringing and still haven't figured out my 'life's task' (except for a love for nature and becoming a horticulturist, obtaining an official diploma document only to realize I cant do it forever, also health care) thinking about what to do next alot of my waking life and feel so grateful for the time I've been able to spend just healing and listening and learning about self-optimation / self love practices. yet here still, with this incessant need to make money for some reason...I have decided to do something practical, & discipline inducing, & feel with enough determination/ dunno about 'swimming with the current' but I hope to hell I feel a sense of success & accomplishment when I get there.
Hi @deltawave, I just read your message and I wanted to take a moment and just acknowledge your courage. I've been in trauma work for several years now and can relate to what you're sharing. I'm intrigued, what lead you to becoming a horticulturist?
"It's not an intellectual thing, it's visceral, it's emotional, it's physical."
"You feel that things are easy, everything clicks together, there's a delight."
"Energy and motivation can come from either pressure, desire for something or desire to get away from something."
One of the best clips I’ve ever watched ❤
I regularly listen to the words from coaches “you are unique”, but I was almost bursted in tears when I’ve heard this on first minutes of this video!! It is something ❤
Thanks a lot. Great interview.
This was very informative and inspiring. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing! love Robert Green. very informative discussion
Some very good insights in this clip. I find it to be much more difficult to find the new path your life needs to go later in life. Many distractions through the years. Makes sense to look back to when you were young, when our likes and feelings were natural.
I also agree somethings moves us good or bad , to let us know we need to change direction or our course.
We can only hope to achieve the feeling that we are swimming on course. Great clip
Excellent!!! Thanks Dr Huberman for sharing this. Robert Green is phenomenal and a very humble individual.
God bless you both. Two amazing men!
Love both these guys ❤
What a great chat with these 2 positive engaged-mind humans
Really great show !!!!!
I'm 67 and still confused. I can go back and pinpoint when I was a child what I wanted to do, but not having parents who listen or teachers/counselors at school who don't care set us up for failure. So sad.
dont give up, elder.
63 here, feel same way. Being female felt always ‘in service’ first to obeying parents n teachers, then meeting needs of friends, then children and husband and now for my last surviving 94yo parent. I try to fit my interests n needs around my schedule of serving others. But I feel most others do same thing? Makes our world operate…You have to make or set aside time to fulfill your interests or things feel hollow then. We either go thru the motions on autopilot or we engage our emotions and interest. Have goals…before out of bed in the a.m., I ask myself what is my intention today? And we need to dig our perseverance & discipline out of our fortitude daily. Remembering our relatives before faced their challenges they couldn’t shirk puts it in perspective.
@@kirbykidsmithThe funny thing about being older, maybe yes in birth age. But in, in your brain you can feel 40, when it hits you, just how many things you still want to learn, achieve & travel to. Or even books to read…🎉 Or a 20 yo can wake & feel 100 because media has made the world look bleak, if one sees it that way…your attitude is what makes you or breaks you. ❤
@@jelizabethpetrie6656 It's a challenge to do that every day. Some days are good, some make you want to run.
School only sets us up to become sheeple. I'm 66 and it was worse when we were younger 😉
What a beautiful talk
Love this 👏🏻
I pray that you are blessed with kids, because my son is the most fun I've ever had.😇💜🙏
I generated a prompt using gpt about the power of celebacy, i told it to write in the style of teacher Robert, and it was the most amazing prompt ever generated by AI for me. Thank you!, your are a blessing to me. And the GOAT teacher Andrew. I have listened to so many of your podcast lectures. I love you both deeply with all my heart... 💚🐯
do u mind sharing ?
Yea man you gotta share that gpt response with us! It’s easy to copy and paste it 😊
I hate AI. Why?
Because it takes everything from human endeavour and without any soul, or experience, attempts to replace with single “perfect” responses. You can’t learn without mistakes
So insightful!
Great clip ✨
I feel as though I have found my life's purpose, I wrote my first children's book during the pandemic, I hired an illustrator and worked with an editor to get it to a standard I'm really proud of. Then I hit a wall...supply chain, business development, PR, sales strategy 😑I find all these things so complicated. Whereas the creative side of things, I find myself in a flow, I alreday have three other stories started, all of which interlink. But the business side of things makes me question whether this truly is my purpose.
I am a few steps behind you, still writing my first book, which was my childhood passion (reading, writing, learning about people and psychology).
I also envision this future challenge when my book is ready. But as he says in the video, this is a less interesting / boring part that we endure so that we can achieve our goal. Maybe you could partner with someone who likes to deal with this part, like an editor / agent / publisher?
Try and find a partner who handles the business side of things, a publisher
IMO, creative types often need a manager of some kind - delegate if you can, your ability to create (more than management) definitely sounds like you are on the right path.
Remember what Chris Willx says about being able to do something - it means that there will naturally be other things that you cannot/will not do.
You have to choose, and for a creative, that answer is more often than not - some kind of management.
Musicians are famous for NEEDING a manager, authors need publishers, painters need promoters, etc, etc...
I get it. But it might be useful to consider just how unlikely it is that a line individual could be well suited to such a wide range of skills and interests. As others have suggested, it might be best to hand those functions over to others. Delegate, delegate, delegate. But if you can’t afford these services, don’t let it stop you. Get your first book out, no matter what. You’ll be in a better position after your first effort and ready to do better for your next one.
@heytherebarry, your post caught my attention so I looked through your work and I love what you've created with Cara and The Giant. I'd love to know a little more about your goals with your books? Also, Koda is kryptonite! My wife and I rescue animals often and your little guy is awesome!
Love this episode.
Great Clip!

Bien dit monsieur!
Great talk!
Thanks!

Your life's purpose can change. The importance of a purpose or goal is to make sure you improve yourself in pursuit of a goal and do not stay dormant and risk depression.
You can change the coarse of your life every second.
Great point.
It's a balance of self-discovery and personal evolution.
Thanks
I have a high social intelligence but it created massive social anxiety in me and traumatized me at a young age.
Reading near the halfway mark of the Laws of Human Nature. His storytelling is succinct and sublime. Recommend that book and Mastery to all of you.
We are all born as a blank page......we go from there and we CAN be in control of our destiny.
Really???? That itself says, you are not blank....it's black
This "born blank" approach leads to many problems, derived from us not being able to accept who we are, trying to become who we are not. And it's not me saying it, it's the legend himself, Carl Gustav Jung, who introduced the notion, that there's a lot that comes from our genes, from the generations of ancestors, passing on information to their children. It is stored in our subconscious and peaks out in ways of emotions, unnoticed behaviours and dreams. We can control our destiny inside of the borders, set by who we are upon birth. Who we are is to be discovered, individually.
Not blank, very much pre-destined through genetics, however, consider that perhaps it is more that we are a product of our environments, but everyone starts with their own shape to some extent.
@@RocketLauncherwithInfiniteAmmo see, we have a consciousness, which I would describe as a smartphone screen to look through, point and swipe on, to control part of our thoughts and body.
Everything else, that is the body itself, feelings and emotions and, more often than we think, actions - are what we are born with and become conscious of.
We can use our freedom of choice and willpower to activate some of our genes, we can also influence what genes are passed on further through repeated actions (i.e. going to the gym is equal to higher chances of passing on "muscle development" genes).
So I wouldn't agree 100%, that everything is pre-destined 100%.
@@Apollo440 so, would it be more along the lines of we have the ability to change or rather stretch the capabilities of our dna by eating and exercising differently is that what you mean?

About to graduate with major I don't really care about, hopefully I can find something I feel connected to emotionally.
Sounds like your degree didn't nurture your strength which perhaps is emotional intelligence? Still, having graduated it shows you can be dedicated and disciplined. Now to be honest...what makes you happy?
The hardest part of finding your purpose is being with people who dont understand what that means. Maybe its because of the chatter in their own minds, intellectual growth or even understanding and comprehension of finding their ikigai. does that make sense?

I imagine Robert’s The Art of Seduction has been a seminal read for Andrew.
I'm going to play the piano!!
I'm obsessed with number all my life
Like coner MacGregor
Psychologists will tell us that we can create for ourselves a feeling (or sense) of having a purpose. But is a life spent chasing a feeling amount to a life worth living? What if I could convince myself that used chewing gum wrappers have great worth. Would that make it true? No, worth is determined by a purpose that fills a need within a realm. It implies a plan or design and we're part of that plan/design.
Attaching sense/purpose to life is not equal to chasing a feeling. Self dilusion about that wrapper you mention is not true, but explaining your actions to yourself, as being part of a bigger plan, thus worthwhile - that is what is truely valuable.
Watch Huberman's podcast with David Goggins. There they touch upon this issue more, than this podcast does, I believe.

What about a abused child? How to figure it out then?
What if my what makes you „you“ is my heart ?
It’s a little sad that he stated right off the bat that we are born with no direction. Maybe he was (or others were) because sometimes parents/family are not what they are all cracked up to be, but they also can be very supportive and directive. Believe it or not there are people like that in the world. It’s a pretty short sighted view.
definitely opened my eyes again. very impactful, useful, appreciated information in this video. ase
I was when I was child was interested that who made the world if it is god then who made him and it just keep going
I was also got very mesmerized when I first time saw a show bedi brothers where photographers goes to different type of landscape mostly forest and record animal behaviour
I thought that they were scientists who are just living in to the forest and try to understand them I don't know but due to this I got very much interest in to the biology
Anyone know which mastery book he’s talking about?
"Mastery" by Robert Greene. Google it
He wrote a book titled mastery
Im at the stage where I say how to fund my purpose 😅
❤❤❤
Im a teenager with no life's purpose. Can someone please help me before I do something I don't want to do?
Try everything, even the things you don't think you will like doing.
Then start to pay attention to the things you are drawn to and that you are good at, because the more you explore the more you will learn about yourself.
Never give up on the things that make you smile.
Stop going on social media passively, it destroys any drive. Start working out, and taking care of yourself. That’s the bottom of the pyramid of purpose.
Just follow the little thread of curiosity in your body. That tiny little voice that says “I wonder if..” or “I wonder what that would be like”
And start exploring. You won’t know what your purpose is, truly, unless you’re looking backwards.
But if you’re listening to your GUT and your HEART, over your mind, you will be in flow. Your body knows. Learn to listen to it. :)
You are unique and needed in this world. Seek Jesus. Cry out to him. Hear hears you. He died for every mistake you have made. He wants you to live free.
Forget finding your life’s purpose. What are you most curious about? What are your strengths? Focus on what intrigues you and start playing around with it. Just try things. Stop thinking there’s right and wrong things for you. Just try things you’re interested in. If it sticks, it sticks. If it doesn’t, now ya know. Good luck kid! Just keep moving your feet and you’ll do great. Move those feet!
Give your life to the Lord get in the Bible and learn the word and continue to pray 🙏🏾🙏🏾 you are here for a reasons and still young

Internal radar = wisdom
I don't necessary agree with hating math. I also hated math, but when I learned science, especially biology, that is when I start to appreciate math. Also, the reason why we often hate math is the way we taught math.
If math is the language of the universe, we need to teach it intuitively. I was watching a video about Lemurians and Lemuria (ancient civilization?), and how they emphasized on right brain thinking. If we look at our current education system, we are left brain trained. Shouldn't we teach be teaching whole brain development in the 21st Century now??? 🤔😳🤓
After my divorce at 54, my purpose left my heart, no reason to breath

If you can find a/your purpose then that's great. But why are we assuming that there IS a specific purpose for EVERYONE? I don't see any reason why this should be so. All the people who simply go to work to get the job done and get money (ie. 99% of people throughout history), perhaps raise kids, are reasonably content and then die without ever ''finding a purpose'' - maybe that was the best way for those people to move through life. The majority of people have no ''passions'' in any meaningful sense of the word.

“Do stuff you like. Pay attention.” There, now you don’t have to waste hours reading books and listening to podcasts on finding your purpose 😂
Wearing wool socks to bed = life changing sleep quality .....,,,,,
I've honestly found the opposite to be true for me. I always used to wear socks to bed, even during the cold winter nights, and would wake up 5-6 times a night. Having changed to wearing no socks, I rarely wake up more than 3 times a night
Agreed. I've observed that I sleep better without socks. I can kick off layers of covers and regulate my temperature. When I cool down enough during my sleepy time, I can tuck my feet back under the covers. My POV is that of a woman experiencing the vasomotor symptoms of menopause though 😂
I absolutely cannot sleep with socks on, either.
I believe that your foot is part of body which regulates your body temperature while you sleep so even in cold winter when I put on me two blanket one of my leg always about go out for some time and breathe fresh air and regulates my temperature 😅
@@muradbayr9900this is honestly what made me change how i slept. I wasn't getting any help from the numerous doctors I visited, so I decided to see a acupuncturist, and he said something very similar.

Life has no purpose.
Give one to it then
Kierkegaard said the same thing of his own life
If there's no God that is. That's a big IF
Life uh, finds a way.
Life has only one purpose. To live everything else is up to you.
Interesting if you will erase comments about this topic. How u think people trust you after this article about lying to 6 women and male friend?
Irrelevant. Although in entirely different class, einstein was often very scandalous, so are many bright philosophers.
@@9005mieYep. MLK cheated on his wife. Does this discount his contributions to society? Of course not.
@lenadiveeva586 Have you ever lied or cheated on a girlfriend/boyfriend?
"Can a man, who eats Capn' Crunch be a good scientist?", "If a person can't tie his shoes, can he ride a bike?" This and other questions, just like yours, have no answer, because they don't adhere to logic. If you'd say "how can you expect us to sign a business contract with you or have a personal/romantic relationship with you, if it was confirmed and documented by X people, that you have lied to them?". Now those two issues are interconnected, but personal relations and public relations / scientifical work? No.
Do you usually believe anything to see in the media? Be a little skeptical

the problem is the things we really love, we can’t make a living from. mine were gaming and music. others, scrolling social media and binging tv and movies.
that’s another thing, if you allow young children access to social media, tv, movies, gaming, i doubt they will be truly enthralled as you say with much else
