"I no longer believe everything I think."
This hits me hard
powerful
Good one
i want this

1. Practice meditation. Objectively observe the mind. (Learn the structure of your web of thoughts, then choose which path to go down. 2. Restrain your mental intake. Carefully feed your mind with selected input. Choose what you feed your mind!
Thank you Susan.. !! Taken a screenshot here. :)
What a great summary! Thanks Susan, and thanks for watching /A
Does that mean after i mastered to concentrate on my breathing, I should concentrate on 1 thought? For example "what is my goal in 5 years?" And then I am just focusing on that, following this thought, speaking with myself (in thoughts) and getting to a conclusion ?
I am not quite sure if I understood it the right way.
I tried meditation few weeks ago and I was like "5 minutes would be great" but it was 25 minutes. I was not focusing on breathing, i just "talked" with myself and watched where it leads me. I don't know if this was "right"?
My mind is always expecting notification or massages from WhatsApp, Facebook or Instagram and I socially Isolated, but when I saw this awesome video every changed and now I am controlling my social media not social media is controlling me.
Thank you very much 🙏
An eloquent summary. Thankyou Susan.

William James spoke the truth
@JustChizzin Changing your mind? The way we think is a pattern based on our nature and our nurture. Reshaping thinking patterns from YEARS of your life isn't a light switch!
@@MrJoon360 If negative thoughts affect your internal health visit a psychologist. Heal yourself. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety-stress. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back erect, hands on lap with palms upwards, eyes closed, be still and observe your natural incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 10-15 minutes. Many thoughts will come which is ok--slowly your mind will relax. During your daily activity keep observing your breath consciously. Best part is mood swings also reduce. Do the above meditation daily to feel relaxed. For more healing enter the following on google search and listen before sleep repeating the affirmations in your mind for 10 minutes. -“528 Hz affirmations for health and healing you tube”. You will get relief quickly. Best wishes. Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.
@@MrJoon360 you can't change, but you can transit your mind over time through focus and mindfulness!

I’ve shut down my Facebook and Instagram account 4 years ago and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done. I have no other social media, although I do watch a lot of RUclips videos. Mostly about mental health, anxiety, wisdom etc. Thanks for a very good speech.
Impressive! Not even I have done that. I'm glad you've found it helpful. Thanks for watching, take care /A
Justyna Krystyniak I’m reading books as well. At the moment I’m reading a book that I can highly recommend if your interested in reading memoirs. It’s written by the singer Jewel Kilcher and the name of the book is “Never broken” She is a very wise lady and so inspirational.
Most of choose that way and it's good 😊
Me too! No more social media other than RUclips and mainly topics that help me be more positive and feel good.
Still in chaos
"The more we use social media, the more isolated we feel."
Well at least while using social media it in the safety of a home or office in a high rise building with 2 sets of double doors that no intruder could get through then when someone starts harassing you online at first by looking you over often and then inappropriate propositions you then you can still get away while yelling at them and not worry one bit about them following you later in an attempt to make you pay for not worshiping them there as another one of their moral inferiors too. Not nearly as easy when a complete stranger does the same while you are only trying to walk home.
Who still even 2020 uses social media
Who still even 2020 uses social media?
You are spot on. The more we become connected online, the more you are drifting away from others. This is a worse pandemic than COVID-19.
@@DhirajKPradhanAcutech so very true. It is a false sense in connection. Humans been physical human interactions. Period.
The eye opening conclusion was
“ It’s not the harsh, traumatic, or horrible events themselves you should fear the most in life but, your own unwillingness to control your reaction to those events. Ultimately, it’s your capacity to take full responsibility for your own thoughts that will dictate the course and growth of not just you but our entire World.
Raja Ghani Thanks! Exactly what I wanted to be the main message ❤️
Sir you are a true motivation for us. Thank you very much.
What lies you tell
Eula barredo but still there is a hope.
Albert Hobohm I am dealing with this now, fear of fear,fear of being in fear..and it lasts longer than 90 seconds, that's for sure..usually happens when I'm driving or in a car,thoughts of losing control..the hard part is I know it's me giving myself these thoughts but I don't know how to stop..most definitely I have a fear of panic disorder..any tips?
I'm addicted to TEDx lectures.
Agreed upon! Thanks for watching /A
Watch Earthling Ed (Ed Winters)

Agreed. Thanks for watching Abhinash! /A
a lifetime
I like his stage presence. Confident. Calm voice. He really knows his materials.
Thank you so much! /A
He says nothing new, but his way of speaking is magnetic. One of the best Ted Talks I've ever watched.
Great feedback Pietro. Thank you so much. Take care /A
I agree. A brilliant eloquent speaker
I liked the statement that our human "operating system" is dangerously obsolete; it's apt and timely, given the technological and industrial explosion of the last 150 years, which has given us unprecedented power, but our paleolithic instincts haven't kept up.
I didnt notice the magnetism because I listened at 1.75x speed
@@victoralvarez3481 With a population that is increasing by a billion every couple of decades don't think the current era of excess is guaranteed to last. In 1800 there were about 500 million people world wide. Compared to today the place was almost empty and there was an abundance of resources.
I gotta say I needed this... I've started having a lot of bad thoughts recently thats been effecting my overall health. Been a struggle holding myself together and focusing, so I started meditation again today and its already starting to help. And i've deactivated Facebook, its such a terrifying tool! I miss the old days of meeting up with my pals and having to ring land lines and knock doors to see them!
Good for you brother. Hope it's still going well.
Train for a marathon. That will give your mind something to focus on.
Daz I met my favourite friend through Facebook and I don’t let it lead me by he nose it’s great for keeping up with family that you haven’t cut out of your life I can block people I don’t like sure it’s like a bubble but I’m good of with that I don’t want to be offended if exploitation of any kind or violence I have no issues to complain about and I would believe me
How r u doing now
Dude all the time overwhelmed with thoughts of overall health
What a brilliant presentation! I completely forgot about my surroundings while listening to the speech. Thank you Mr. Hobohm. Great speech indeed.
Thank you so much for your kind words Tasneem! May the force be with you /A
It's nice that you call your audience: "friends". I love it. Excellent and wise speech:)
Thank you Wiktor, and for watching! /A
“ I no longer believe in anything I think ..”
That was an eye opener ..!
I noticed several people misquoting what he quotes at 2:30 from Bjorn Lindeblad
He DOES NOT say
"I no longer believe in ANYTHING i think"
but rather he DOES say
"I no longer believe in EVERYTHING i think"
meaning he doesn't just blindly believe whatever his mind is going on about at any given time of the day.
Instead i believe hes come to understand to be a lot more SELECTIVE as to what he believes from his own thoughts.
i noticed this and found it pertinent to address hope this helps PEACE!!!
@@MaNuLaToROfficial Great point mate ..! Now that I re-read it it makes much more sense . “ I no longer believe in everything I think “ is the correct meaning ..

Thank you 🙏🏽✨
Very simple and useful Ted talk.
1. Meditate
2. Quality input for your mind (media)
3. Control social media use and advertising you are exposed to
Very important and quality talk, well done!
Much appreciated and right back at you Ivan on Tech! /A
Gonna get up 15 minutes earlier for some meditation before good morning crypto? ;D I expect a better version of Ivan on Tuesday 8am!
Per Lindgren hehe exactly
Cool to see your comment here Ivan 😉

Not only an eye-opening speech, but also wonderfully well conveyed. I've just started meditation two weeks ago but the spark of something new is igniting inside of me. I hope that as many people as possible watch this excellent Talk. Thank you very much.

Would you say your life 360d from when you posted this? Can you tell me your new outlook on life and how it’s different from before this comment was posted
@@henrytheastronaut My mother is a lovely old lady who has Alzheimer's. I live with her. No nursing home. No care facilities. Last night she take her diaper off, it was pee full. She doesn't know how to put on a fresh one, so she went to bed again without. This morning her bed was full of stool. Before 7 a.m. I was washing her and changing bed clothes. Meditation can help to overcome some automatic reactions and thoughts. Not always, truth be told.
Meditation does help battle those negative engaging thoughts, let’s you live in the present moment rather that in the past or worried so much about the future. Listen to your thought and decide what to keep and what to discard you have the power to decide.
Needed to hear that gurly❤️
“Thoughts becomes perception, perception becomes reality all 3 thoughts alter your reality” -So True
I've been out of Facebook for over ten years now. I don't smoke, I don't drink alcohol, but do have struggles with thoughts that are not positive all the time.
Keep your thoughts from wandering to a negativity by reading good books or doing a job that you love, and rendering services to others and that's how you fill your mind with positivity, which in turn balance your life, but negative thoughts will always be tempting you, no matter what you do to keep them at bay.
So you been off Facebook since 2010?? Sorry hun, u were never really on Facebook l
I have seen talks and read articles about this subject but really thank you Albert for your charisma. You certainly got to me and I am sure many others
Thank you so much. Sharing your story has enlightened me. On the things that I already know but have chosen to ignore but can no longer. Wishing you a happy journey
He deserved a huge stage and audience for this talk. Regardless, thank you and awesome work!
Thank you so much for your kind words Andy! Have an amazing day /A
I agree!!
Pls any direction on how to meditate
The way he speaks, clearly demonstrates the high achieved mind focus. Great talk. Thx!
Thanks for that feedback Lukas! I had it repeated like 85 times ;-) Thanks for watching! /A
The carefully chosen words at the end there were so beautiful. And such a humble and genuine guy. This really is a great TED talk with great clarity and relevance for all people.
« The more we use social media, the more socially isolated we feel. The more socially isolated we feel, the more we want to use social media. »
Wow this talk made me realize that growing up as an only child to a single mother that worked 40-50 hrs/wk was in fact beneficial to my mental development. I spent a lot of time alone with only myself for company. Most of what this guy said was just a given for me yet I don’t understand why most of my peers just don’t get it. It’s like they’re stuck in the matrix.
Thank you for sharing! That sounds reasonable, understimulation is so often a great thing. Not in the moment, but in the long run. Take care /A
I'm stuck... help
His mother would be proud! THANK YOU FOR THIS
I admire the way he is addressing audience , self confident calm and communicating his message clearly
This is one of the best Talks I’ve ever listened to. Beautiful message and captivating delivery!
It’s amazing how he can command audience and attention, even on RUclips, by his presentation style and tone!
One of the best TEDx talks I've seen. Well thought-out, prepared, choreographed and delivered. Well done! I'll watch it again.
“Now please reflect on the stories that I’ve told, which are yours. And decide what you want to do with them.

Ultimately it’s your capacity to take full responsibility for your thoughts that will dictate the course and growth of not just you but our entire world.”
- Albert Hobohm
Wow…what a conclusive statement. Thank you for the advice good sir.
Thank you. You verbalize my deep thoughts and beliefs that have me battling the consumer life that I find myself in. Your talk has helped me to separate the thoughts I want and the thoughts I don't.
This will help me construct the life I deserve.
Thank you 👍🏼
Past negative experiences also have great control over our thoughts and behavior. Not letting past negative experiences define you is very difficult. You have to put a positive spin on negative experiences or you'll be consumed by them. If anyone can relate please share your insights.
I have got soooo much negative thoughts and ideas that they are keep rolling in my mind and i felt impossibly anxious towards speaking and expressing my ideas since the words are just feelings and feelings about my mind and that keeping push people around me away and away from me and I want to talk to them but I don't know what to tell, and that will further worsen my social relationships, sincerely i don't know what to do.
Great talk. I think I am definitely addicted to social media. I spend many many hours on social media every day and night. I checked my phone usage for social media and just Last week I spent 41 HOURS on social media. Today after listening to this talk, I deleted facebook, Instagram, FB messenger, Tinder from my phone today. Such a relief. I am gonna work on it and promise myself not to use social media on phone from NOW.
Thank you for sharing your story Raja! Take good care! /A
How do you communicate with friends or relatives that live far away?
Thank you so much!!
Blessings always to TED
He seems to choose his words carefully to express his ideas and I appreciate that.
Thank you so much for an excellent and powerful message!!!👍👍👍❤️
Excellent thoughts and presentation Albert Hobohm! Beautifully done. Really impacted!
One of the best enlightening talk, put out so clearly, and so very well crafted speech 🙏
Selective input. Excellent. This also applies to dysfunctional families with so-called narcissistic mothers and cruel rejecting families and siblings. This applies to all toxic from everywhere in our lives. This is an excellent presentation with very important information concise and to the point. Thank you.
You can tell the speech comes from a place of passion and love, such superb way of making these important points, well done.
I have never reviewed a video before, but this is absolutely one of the best TED talks I've ever watched about the power of mind. I find it truly incredible how Albert Hobohm describes this mechanism so accurate and understandable for anyone who's new to this idea of living. I really hope this kind of information reaches more audience, because I deeply believe it can change lifes (in just 15 minutes). To give someone the ability to become more self aware en therefore learn to understand their inner voice, is SUCH a beautiful gift. Definitely sharing this with my loved ones!
I so needed to hear this. Thank you for your words MR. Hobohm!
so powerfull,straightforward. It pays to listen to it several times over time. Thank you!!!
"Thoughts become perception, perception becomes reality. Alter your thoughts, alter your reality". Nicely put!
This guy explained everything that we need to hear in just few minutes, hats off 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wow you touched on so many things that needed to be said. Thank you for sharing this crucial and beneficial information. 🙏🏽❤️
This is the best talk. Thank you for sharing this to us 🙏🏻❤️
What a fantastic and productive speech, I truly needed this. Let's start to take control over our minds, thoughts and eventually lives.
Thank you so much Arsalan, and for sharing! I hope things unfold nicely for you in life /A
Arsalan Daryaei As a Man in his 50’s who lived for learning the PC and Software in 1995 just to end up Spending 10’s of Thousdands of dollars on Anything with a screen over the past 24 years. Upgrading, Newest and faster, and better, everything with a screen. To now finding myself with many Spare Tablets and a PC with a expensive monitor and expensive speakers and 2 Note Series Phones that were Brand New when I obtained them. Now realizing how much time a day I spend looking at a screen each day. I stopped Living in the year 2007 with the IPHONE invention and can’t believe what I have become. I no longer Listen to Music, nor do I even go to movies, or watch TV, or go for drives, I stopped eating out years ago. My weight YO YOing and every now and then I dry and excersice but never shut my brain down for more then 20 minutes while I cook dinner. FaceBook has all but ruined my DINER that I have had for 34 years with a Awesome reputation. Along come Social media and a few Discruntled Employees posting with their friends and any other millennial that would join in and think I am the BIG BAD BOSS who is everything under the sun and because it is on FB it must be TRUE. In a CITY FORUM that has almost half the City subscribed. I try to defend myself and get beat up after the first post. Amazing how 33 years of having a great reputation can be gone in 48 hours on FB. I go out and public and the places I shop look at me different and even though I tell them the truth you can see the doubt in their eyes. Social Media and YELP, FB let people lie and get away with it. No evidence and still it’s unreal that the public gets brain washed when reading anyhting on the web no matter if the person has a back ground in prison they must be telling the truth. Thank You Social Media. Thanks for not being behind the business’s
Albert Hobohm Hi I loved your talk - it was so well explained - it was no news for me but I find that it’s most import to seek to be reminded of good practices and evaluate what can be improved. After all we all are developing for the next stage. I suggest you look for same information on the Bahá’í Faith you’ll probably identify which it Congratulations 💖 Sílvia

One year has just passed from watching this speech!
After lots of suffering and trying hard, I couldn't help myself! I finally started taking medications for overthinking! Let's see what happens with that!
I am so glad that I came across this video today. I needed to hear this, all of it. Thank you, Albert.
Thank you for your words Nombulelo! Take good care /A
I will keep reminding myself about this talk everytime i come across my wayward thought.
This presentation is excellent and comprehensive. Thank you for your skillful delivery of urgently important wisdom.
This young man is so amazing. I always come back to this Ted X. Still trying to learn how to influence my life and stopping thoughts to control me.
I am under the impression that the purpose of Buddhist meditation is not to change or choose different thoughts, but to realise that thoughts are not 'me' and that the spaces inbetween thoughts are what is of interest and where something enlightening might be observed. Not the thoughts themselves. While it seems true that modern people are unhealthily distracted by ipads, social media etc, there is much more to Buddhist philosophy than is reflected here which has taken one aspect and distorted it out of context.
budte yep, I actually believe the opposite to this. Thoughts are not something that need to be controlled, just understood and seen as what they actually are.... pictures and words that are not to be feared, trusted or taken seriously. This guy believes the opposite to me.
Great speaker..I cant see the crowd but I can just feel that he has their complete attention..his words are making an impact in that room tonight..
This guy's talk was so strong. Exactly what I needed. Even though I watch documentaries, I choose ones more about terror, rather than something good. Now I've recognised the problem too.
Please spread your message to many as people as you can. Thanks for this wonderful talk
Wow, that’s an amazing speech. He didn’t speak much about his own truth but I somehow recognize myself into what he says..
Great words here and I AM going to follow this truth. Thank you, young man. I used to meditate and do yoga. Now I find myself forgetting to literally breathe right because I'm so anxious and worried about how, why and who. I really needed this and I know from past experience it works.
Thank you Albert for such an amazing talk. Social media is responsible for most of the craziness and irrational behavior happening now across the world. We need to feed our mind good things just as we feed our bodies good food.
Love his voice...very soothing.
Beautifully presented, fellow human. Thanks for your existence!
Brilliant talk. He’s so calm and peaceful
Fantastic presentation. I could listen to him all day.
What a captivating speech, I love his delivery. Namaste.
Wow, this talk will change many lives. Mine included. Great work!
Master your brain or your brain will master you, as simple as that.
Mind is a loyal servant, but very dangerous master
How sir ? Howw !!
Such calm voice... the best meditation sound yet... thank you Albert.
One of the best talks I've listen to do far
Best tedx talk by far. Thanks brother.
I have begun to consciously reduce my use of social media and also to be more selective about the type of movies I watch, the types of new media I read and where I place my attention.
He is right at every point. And this is the issue which is plaguing me at my 23. Good recommendation. Thanks.
This talk was so relevant to me when I was a teenager. Natural selection, I chose. However the bad patterns have evolved into my life now (over 55yrs) which I need to reverse. So important this mans message, when challenging events come into your personal arena.
Beautiful talk. I needed to be reminded of these insights. It’s so easy to forget and fall back into bad habits. One important lesson for me was not only to choose your thoughts, but also the people you surround yourself with.
How would we choose our thoughts?
I have watched 40/50 ted talks but this one is really getting my attention
Excellent speaker and insightful content! Many years ago - before social media existed - I was at the same monastery for a 10 day retreat. From there I took the overnight train and emerged in Bangkok. The busyness that had so recently been "normal" was overwhelmingly chaotic. I noticed it all without getting caught up in it! Extraordinary! The problem was/is being in that space when the world around you is operating in another, hyper reality like the one you describe.
Great speech!!! I am impressed the way he has articulated the simple yet effective way to train our mind so we can be less destructive and be more at peace✌️
I am not the brightest star in the Galaxy but I understood every word this man said thank you for this very simple explanation on how the mind works
You are your own star. Shine as bright as you like
Wow i think it’s one the best TED talks i’ve watched. Actually concerned for myself.
Great speech! I’ve started practicing meditation about a week ago and I can see the benefits of it. It altered my mind. Will continue to do so. Thanks
I feel like "OMG !! This is it; the solution for what I've been struggling for nearly 2/3 years" .Thanks a lot for your great speech. It really touched me.
thank you for this inspiring talk needed it , lately my mood has been low due to consumption of alot of social media and constantly stumbling across people who are more succesfull than i am ...which has led to anxiety and overthinking now on i want to limit my social media consumption... i hope it works(I am 19 and wanna able to control my thoughts)
A smooth, engaging and magnetic presenter.
Thanks for watching Scott! /A
One of the best talks i have ever seen very insightful
Thank you for such a valuable talk. I enjoyed the simplicity of the topic.
A long-time practitioner of keeping it simple.
Talked slowly, well thought out, emphasized his speech, I usually don't absorb everything right away on these talks, but on this I definitely did !! Thanks TEDx and youtube for this free service cause in the near future this guy could name his price !
this is so true, I stopped doing mediation for some weeks and I noticed how distracted I was, how my thoughts became superior against my own will and even scaring me to something isn't even real or happening.
My random thoughts often appear randomly and makes me believe to smth I’m not. Thankyou for writing this
Great presentation well done - one of the best ted talks I have watched in a while.
We really need more ppl to speak on these topics, so many great teachers have for yrs but just recently it has blown up in the media, ppl are starting to wake up but
I feel like we all could make a big difference in even more lives if more ppl educated themselves and got out there in the world preaching it on the streets starting more businesses ect doing whatever they can toget this knowledge out to more ppl not just online.
The more you study the more change u see happening in your life, but still so many have no clue how powerful their thoughts really are.
Ive been studying for 5yrs and still learning and trying to stay mindful of my thoughts, especially anxiety it consumes me sometimes but I see it getting better the more knowledge I gain on the power of thoughts.
Lots of great teachers out there but most of it's online. We need to try an reach those who maby don't have access to the Internet, ppl who are homeless or might not have interest or know how to find these videos ect.. we need to find other ways to reach more ppl outside of digital resources.
I've asked several ppl threw the yrs if they know what mindfulness is or law of attraction and most say no. I think if more believed then just maby there wouldn't be so much crime, bullying hate in this world.
Damn, his oratory skill is splendid!!!
this is just what I needed to hear. In the course of one year, I lost my father, a sister, developed stage 2 melanoma and my wife left me. More than a year later still trying io get back to normal. His talk has given me inspiration.
Stay the course please and be the person that you want to b
God bless you brother. It will get better and I don’t say it nonchalantly the things that have happened to you are tremendously difficult. But I speak from experience if you stay the course and keep fighting day by day things will get better brother.
@@truths1256 thank you very much! Things are getting better,; this year gives me much optimism. I appreciate very much your comment. May this year be blessed for you.
@@geoffoakland That’s the right mindset to have brother.
I respect you for being able to do as real strength is looking in the face of hardship and remaining positive as you are doing.
What ever you may believe God the universe the laws of nature you will be reward for your strength brother keep on the path. You will be in my prayers
That's a lot of stress. Hope things are better for you now 👍
Exactly what i needed to hear this morning. Beautiful. Thank you
Agree .. not only one of the best Ted talks , but also one of the best talks and pieces of advice I have ever heard.. thank you so much
Each and every word that this man has said is 1000% correct. I myself have experienced all this and my life has totally changed. Each and every word is GOLD.
Everything he says is on point! The delivery was impeccable! Thanks man!
Thank you so, so much Ronny. Take good care /A
I appreciate his ability to say it isn't external factors that are to blame but our own inability to make wise decisions. Banning things isn't the answer but restraining our impulses is.
Brilliant TED, one of the best I have seen in a while.
