I just went through the hardest time in my life and it culminated in a massive blow up yesterday. I’ve been working 6-7 days a week, 10-16 hours a day for 6 months. After 5 months I built up the courage to ask for some weekends and they cussed me out and threatened to put me on part time. I finally ripped the band aid off and quit yesterday. All this happened because I need everyone to like me. It felt like fate when the first thing I saw this morning was this video. Instead of turning to substances for the first time in my life, I watched this while exercising, showered, shaved, reached out to a friend to make plans later and am now cleaning the house. Thank you so much for these. You have no idea how much this helped. The situation was more fucked than I could possibly type out on here and this meant a lot. Hope you’re doing well 💖
@VoidCavalier Remember that change doesn't occur in a day. This is not to discourage you but reply back to this comment if you start feeling down and need to talk to someone in detail, I'll be happy to discuss anything. Never be ashamed of asking for help. Stay strong.
It takes courage to recognise you are being exploited, because then you have to do something about it. You clearly decided there was no changing the situation and that it was untenable, so you made a brave choice to take care of yourself and leave. Now you have an opportunity to try to understand what was at the centre of your choices to stay in that time. You say it was wanting to be liked, what does that mean? Spend some time reflecting, journal, maybe seek therapy if it's possible for you even if it's just a few sessions in an attempt to give yourself more clarity about this aspect of yourself. Hopefully this will prevent you entering into similar relationships that don't serve you because you're seeking something.
Goodness. That sounds really rough. I feel the same about people-pleasing, and now understand the world quite a bit differently. EVERYTHING, is social pressure these days. It's okay to grieve the time that it took from us. If you focus on your values, and pay attention to when you make choices that benefit yourself, you'll probably get further than a lot of people. The truth is that people won't like the new you, but you'll feel fantastic. The ones who ride with, are golden.
@@a.alphonso6193clearly, you don’t understand how trauma works. traumatic situations can result in maladaptive tendencies because the brain has learned that that way keeps them safe and out of harm. it doesn’t matter if it actually does; the brain perceives it that way.
regarding being vain: its just a lack of self-compassion. like if you arent regularly compassionate internally you look for validity externally. the "fuck im such an idiot" is what drives the "arent i so cool" obsession, at least in my experience. what broke me out of it was finding out that TONS of research shows self-compassion makes you more accountable for mistakes. i had this notion that self-compassion will make me vain and self-centered, but it's literally the opposite. like theres this notion that if youre hard on yourself and have super high standards for yourself youll perform better/be more productive/be a better person. but being truly self-compassionate instead helps much more effectively.
What you talk about in this video relating to self esteem and vanity sounds a lot to me like the concept of fragile or unstable high/low self esteem, I recently stumbled upon that theory and recognized a lot of myself in it. It was quite healing actually because there is (supposedly) such a thing as stable self esteem, which is independent from your concrete achievements and validation from people around you, and can be attained if you work on it 🌻
Finally someone understands what I mean when I say that I am vain! I literally sometimes write down things I do that are good so that I have proof that I did it and will obsess over it until I get a different good thing to think about. Im not trying to be full of myself but I am both incredibly insecure and laughably self aborbed. But I guess I would have to be self absorbed to have all of the insecurities that I do.
I think this dichotomy of self-absorbed/insecure is more common than it might seem. People feel insecure, so they hype themselves up to feel better, while the insecurities still rise from time to time. Some people might be more extreme than others though, and that can be tough. In my case, being bipolar certainly doesn't help, even with my case being as mild as it is.
insecurity is self-absorption! narcissists are, at their core, incredibly insecure. its helped me a lot to think about this, but not shame myself for it. just like yeah, im being a little silly with how much im thinking about myself rn, so lemme stop. ill ask a friend how they are or something and that can snap me out of self loathing sometimes.
Thank you for being here and being you. I like hearing your stories and you make me feel seen, or feel like I'm not the only one who has these silly little thoughts and feels. ily.
Same same!!!! I'm....I'm in a really really hard place right now, and for a significant portion of it there is NOTHING I can do but hang on for the ride. While dealing with and navigating that something about these daily uploads have become like a guided meditative ritual or something. I go to the comments and feel like this community of people would all be willing to give me a hug if I asked for one on a bad day. 😂 But also, a lot of people seem to feel exactly what we do. Having been on the receiving end of the parasocial parasite myself, I guard hard against that thinking with the creators I watch but don't already know. But this *community* that is forming is just the bees knees, I keep interacting in the comments because pretty much everyone has felt like they deeply get It™️, and that I absolutely do think is something all the credit goes to Noah for. It's his vibe. Weirdly, too, I'm an ancient lady, so far on the other side of 30 most people here couldn't find me with GPS. To my mind this stuff shouldn't hit so hard for me, being as I'm old and decrepit and my soul is shriveled and black. But it's still been great and I've really loved the comments, even if I could have been Noah's babysitter a couple decades ago. 😂😂😂
The silly thing about doing things to be "interesting" is that those things often don't carry a conversation. I can easily have a lengthier and more gratifying convo about a movie I watched instead of a fancy restaurant I went to or whatever
21:00 This whole rationale around sports is genuinely really interesting. I tried doing the same thing of making a "positive reservoir" but had the compounding issue where my father, who lived vicariously through me as a failed sportsman himself, would actively interrogate me for hours on my mistakes after every single training or game session, which were daily on account of how seriously I (he) was taking the sport. This naturally forced my brain to commit to memory every singular mistake I've done, which spilled out into my ordinary life to the point where I to this day still, 20+ years after quitting hockey, can remember with extreme clarity not just the passes and checks I missed on the ice, but also the embarrassing stuff I said in school and similar. Thanks dad.
You talking about the bug phobia resonated with me. It’s sort of niche but you CAN find therapy for that kind of thing… I’m very weak-minded so it’s been an on and off process…
I have that same insecurity, that I'm boring. That no one will find me or my life interesting enough to even want to hear about it. I didn't have any stories or opinions. I envied people that knew all the best restaurants or local spots. Or had interesting hobbies. That year I did a new years resolution to do/see 50 new things. I ended up doing 70 by the end of the year. That's averaging more than one thing I week. I felt full of fun topics by the end. By the end I liked myself more. Do it for you, not for your tinder date.
The point at 13:40 is so interesting. I had the same thing with reading. I always thought to read means to get a book and read it with the goal of at some point finishing it. But lately I've been just reading random things, like a quick short story or an introduction to a book or a full book or I don't know, anything. And it feels so much more flexible and free now that I don't have those "imagined rules" around reading. I think in general, it's good to just question why we think doing something is supposed to look a certain way (like lifting weights and gym) because it just feels so much better to just try things differently and with more openness/experimentation.
Those bird chirps are so relaxing 💚 you’re totally thriving like a plant in its natural habitat 🍃 My favorite relationships were ones where we didn’t have to talk or explain anything really. Not like that but it was more about nothing to prove and being from the same worldview with the same goals. I’ve had two like that they’re rare ones but great memories, no stress. I can’t remember a single conversation from them lol just hanging out. That was before apps tho Idk how you’d meet a life partner like that now. Probably just run into each other.
I’ve been having a rough time and it’s nice to just hear you talk and just live your normal life. My life has been feeling so bland and sad recently and I’m trying to appreciate this quiet portion of my life but it just makes me sad to not be having fun out and about like people my age, especially since I’m also graduating college, everything just feels like it’s ending so quickly and suddenly. I’m trying to learn how to not grasp onto these moments and just life flow because change is inevitable, but even knowing this, it’s hard to implement into my life.
Obsessed with these super chill and real videos that are so far removed from main youtube hyper-edited and scripted bullshit. A breath of fresh air. I found this channel before your main channel btw. Thank you Noah for sharing your soul and just being human here. Makes me feel less alone while I WFH.
Noah I obviously don't know you but I've been loving these videos and I think anyone who can draw in an audience while doing housework is an interesting person ;) don't fret. The most interesting people are the ones who have interesting perspectives on things; how many hobbies they have doesn't necessarily correlate with that
I need everyone to like me because I’m only human - and life is about understanding this and slowly learning to counterbalance it to what it is more important/meaningful in life. (To me)
I have been watching this channel since before the rebrand, came from the main channel. recently I’ve also been moving away from commentary style youtube video and this rebrand came at the perfect time. i really like putting your videos while i’m doing some tasks, it makes me feel like i’m branching out of studying and of the internet and doing stuff with a real person thanks !
I need everyone to like me bc for the longest time I've put off liking myself. And even if they do like me, I'll somehow think I'm not deserving of it or that they are just being kind. I'm working on those thoughts, but like you said, they come back from time to time and I'm not yet in the mental place where I allowed them to exist and accept they are likely not true. I am getting there. ❤ Thank you for the vids. You are calming somehow. Like watching someone else journal.
Sorry to hear about your bug trauma! Bugs are actually super neat and while they might seem gross at first, the more you learn about them and learn to appreciate them, the more tolerance you will grow towards them. Of course, you don’t have to get to the point where you have them crawl on you, but if you make the effort to learn, I guarantee your aversion will lessen over time.
I don't watch any other vlog-esque content on YT, but your shit is really comforting and motivating at the same time. (don't stop making ur other stuff tho too plz)
Thank you Noah, I feel seen every time I watch these videos. I feel the exact same way about so many things to the point where I’m wondering if most of my personality is just my adhd. You inspire me to be a better person and stick to my habits, but mostly these videos make me feel better for being exactly the way I am.
I love you Noah, i started going to the gym and trying to eat less at the same time you started posting these and they motivate me to go to the gym and remind me im not alone with those weird "silly" thoughts about how i take up to much space in an isle at the store. Everyone has to like me because I try to give 150% to make sure everyone is happy. Ive gotten better at not caring and understanding where these feelings come from. I was raised Lutheran and i also had be in the role of caretaker for my dad when i was in high school and he got knee surgery. Making sure my dad didnt have emotional pain on top of his surgery pain at the same time i wanted to move back with my mom and making sure i was always a "good boy" for god was a lot. I started not talking to my dad and around that time i saw too many similarities between how i was supposed to act for my dad and god for me to have anything to do with both. Its been 6 years since I left both and im finally getting on top of all my emotions. I still have a lot of issues with social anxiety and generally existing in public, I still give 150% of myself but i know I'm not going to get that back from everyone. I used to struggle with dark thoughts but a year ago i thought, "if shit hits the fan i want to be here to see it" and recently I heard a quote that changed that mindset to something less dark, "your perspective is yours only and if that goes away then who will be there to tell your story" Again i love these videos. I deleted social media last week so I'll probably be back to comment some random stuff tomorrow.
I would argue that most people care more about what kind of person you are, not how many things you can do! ❤ Ps: I think people who say "get used to bugs!" Can't smell them all. If you could smell them you would be singing a different tune.
I have shoulder pain too! Going on 2 years now (I have long covid, it attacked my muscles). I'm on the upswing but miss lifting weights. Living vicariously thru you Noah
ay man great videos. this channel has been helping me a lot, sometimes even in a trippy way. it’s really wholesome to see everyone doing their best :) (apologies for any misspellings or grammar mistakes i’m a little bit faded)
hey! i just discovered ur channel the other day and i love the vibes man. this feels so much more human than any of the other content that gets shoved down my throat. so thanks for that noah
It's so nice and calming to hear you talk, and it's a well needed break from the brightness and overwhelmingly flashy content that I get bombarded with as a person that uses social media. Hearing you talk is very grounding, and it's amazing how human that makes us watchers feel. This is such an enjoyable format and I'm always glad to have you pop up on my fyp ❤
Man, I just found your channel today and thanks for existing. Beeepbooopbeepepoooobpbp idk man 😂 I started weight training back in 2021, but my knees kept giving me problems. Turns out I am arthritic because I rolled a nat 1 on Anatomy and also overworked myself in my twenties. So anyway I finally got my shiz figured out and started weight training again in January. It is really hard with some of my physical limitations but that also kinda makes me feel twice as good about being able to do it at all. I probably shouldn't have watched like four of your videos in a row bc I have too many thoughts to convey but your talking is nice and helps me kinda process some of my own crap, so thank you.
I shattered my ankle rock climbing on February 10th. It's been really hard for me to get the motivation to work out and I'm down to 3x/week. Your videos are helping to motivate me, so thank you!
Your videos have been helping me improve myself but nothing like I’m changing my whole like but just understanding my body and trying to take care of it more. Thank you
I don’t want everyone to like me, I just want 2 more core friends since haven’t ever really experienced that environment it’s just hard now that I’m older lol it’s kinda silly maybe weird asking another grown up “hey wanna be friends?”
These videos have made me finally want to work out. You make it seem so approachable, I've always been so clueless and averse to starting despite wanting to!
I love what youre doing here on this channel. Improving oneself is challenging and can be so overwhelming and isolating. Your honesty and introspection about topics surrounding society, people pleasing, virtue, executive function, etc is fucking awesome... Just... Really great job, Noah. Watching your videos makes me feel less alone. You have a special gift
We need to belong. It's key to survival. We twist all our behavior around that simple reality. All the variations of this aren't wrong they're human. ❤
hey Noah just a casual fitness enjoyer -- if you want to work on your core, you should start there. As you've seen, if you get too tired doing other stuff, you won't have the gas to really work your abs. The thing you work first should be the thing that's the most important to you. Still perfectly OK to do abs at the end like you've been doing, but you won't get much results beyond burning calories. Just my two Lincolns!
These videos are a great look into your developing new/different habits. I'm primarily a "listener", either while on a walk or doing chores, but I"m going to go back and watch this one again since I've been adding more weightlifting & calesthenics to my running routine and really want to see the exercise form.
I’m a hold over from before! I think you started Noah Fit here before you created that separate channel. I also think the “getting everyone to like you” isn’t solely vanity. Like other people have said, it could come from the desire to avoid confrontation, which we can all agree sucks. I’ve also had the same question at various points through my life and that’s a possible answer I’ve come up with. Love the content man!
Always the first thing I watch in the morning, before anyone else is awake. Need to start doing yoga while I watch them (I am old, and body no worky in the AM).
Yeah I feel that evidence gathering thing. The bad things seem to weigh more than the good. Like 5 evidence of good things would need to counter the 1 instance of bad things
@@memegazeryes yes I am working on trying to trust the good responses and feedback more and get a better sense of self while balancing how I think I’m perceived
Sometimes I wish I did more traveling as a kid so I could tell my friends how cool it was. But I'm somewhat fine enjoying more peace in my life than adventures
Hey man, new to the channel but I'm enjoying your stuff! Maybe you've talked about it in other vids, but I'm super curious about your place - where are you? Does Thai league server mean you're in Thailand? What's that living experience been like?
"you should leave those ants alone!" - a group of ants that have learned how to use their combined strength to type and just want to bite you jk they're cool
noah think about the fact that you’re supposed to take frequent breaks in order to use your brain in a way that is healthy so when u feel a pee coming just think ok i can take a mental break and then my brain will be even better when im back after i pee
people say don't eat rice left at room temp cuz a specific bacteria that causes really painful food poisoning grows in it and you can't kill it by reheating the rice. but like most food poisoning it's mostly dangerous to young old and sick people so you'll probably be ok. but a sushi restaurant by me just had to close down cuz they poisoned like 14 high school students and I think some had to go to the hospital.
When I was a kid a fly flew in my ear when I was trying to sleep so I’m 29 and still absolutely cannot stand the sound of a fly buzzing around me, so that beehive business makes perfect sense

I need everyone to like me because I grew up with volatile caretakers and keeping them mollified was how I kept myself safe 😌
Me too. 🥲
Ditto, and now rolling hard with 'caretaker mentality'. I NEED to take care of others, so they'll finally have a reason to like me.
okay, but now you aren't around them. so what now

These videos are so comforting, we really appreciate this :,))
Thank you Noah, I feel seen every time I watch these videos. I feel the exact same way about so many things to the point where I’m wondering if most of my personality is just my adhd. You inspire me to be a better person and stick to my habits, but mostly these videos make me feel better for being exactly the way I am.
I love you Noah, i started going to the gym and trying to eat less at the same time you started posting these and they motivate me to go to the gym and remind me im not alone with those weird "silly" thoughts about how i take up to much space in an isle at the store.
Everyone has to like me because I try to give 150% to make sure everyone is happy. Ive gotten better at not caring and understanding where these feelings come from.
I was raised Lutheran and i also had be in the role of caretaker for my dad when i was in high school and he got knee surgery. Making sure my dad didnt have emotional pain on top of his surgery pain at the same time i wanted to move back with my mom and making sure i was always a "good boy" for god was a lot. I started not talking to my dad and around that time i saw too many similarities between how i was supposed to act for my dad and god for me to have anything to do with both.
Its been 6 years since I left both and im finally getting on top of all my emotions. I still have a lot of issues with social anxiety and generally existing in public, I still give 150% of myself but i know I'm not going to get that back from everyone.
I used to struggle with dark thoughts but a year ago i thought, "if shit hits the fan i want to be here to see it" and recently I heard a quote that changed that mindset to something less dark, "your perspective is yours only and if that goes away then who will be there to tell your story"
Again i love these videos. I deleted social media last week so I'll probably be back to comment some random stuff tomorrow.
I would argue that most people care more about what kind of person you are, not how many things you can do! ❤
Ps: I think people who say "get used to bugs!" Can't smell them all. If you could smell them you would be singing a different tune.
I have shoulder pain too! Going on 2 years now (I have long covid, it attacked my muscles). I'm on the upswing but miss lifting weights. Living vicariously thru you Noah
ay man great videos. this channel has been helping me a lot, sometimes even in a trippy way. it’s really wholesome to see everyone doing their best :)
(apologies for any misspellings or grammar mistakes i’m a little bit faded)
hey! i just discovered ur channel the other day and i love the vibes man. this feels so much more human than any of the other content that gets shoved down my throat. so thanks for that noah
hell yeah, glad to hear it!
It's so nice and calming to hear you talk, and it's a well needed break from the brightness and overwhelmingly flashy content that I get bombarded with as a person that uses social media. Hearing you talk is very grounding, and it's amazing how human that makes us watchers feel. This is such an enjoyable format and I'm always glad to have you pop up on my fyp ❤
Man, I just found your channel today and thanks for existing. Beeepbooopbeepepoooobpbp idk man 😂
I started weight training back in 2021, but my knees kept giving me problems. Turns out I am arthritic because I rolled a nat 1 on Anatomy and also overworked myself in my twenties. So anyway I finally got my shiz figured out and started weight training again in January. It is really hard with some of my physical limitations but that also kinda makes me feel twice as good about being able to do it at all.
I probably shouldn't have watched like four of your videos in a row bc I have too many thoughts to convey but your talking is nice and helps me kinda process some of my own crap, so thank you.
I shattered my ankle rock climbing on February 10th. It's been really hard for me to get the motivation to work out and I'm down to 3x/week. Your videos are helping to motivate me, so thank you!
im going thorugh hard times in life and just listening to your videos, even if its just in the background, comforts me a lot. thank you
You know what you're doing with those thumbnails Noah
i love you Noah. you're the most human type of guy i know
Your videos have been helping me improve myself but nothing like I’m changing my whole like but just understanding my body and trying to take care of it more. Thank you
I don’t want everyone to like me, I just want 2 more core friends since haven’t ever really experienced that environment it’s just hard now that I’m older lol it’s kinda silly maybe weird asking another grown up “hey wanna be friends?”
These videos have made me finally want to work out. You make it seem so approachable, I've always been so clueless and averse to starting despite wanting to!
booboobababibibaba
Yay new video while I cook!!!
Me while I microwave oatmeal
Me too! Bon appétit
I love what youre doing here on this channel. Improving oneself is challenging and can be so overwhelming and isolating.
Your honesty and introspection about topics surrounding society, people pleasing, virtue, executive function, etc is fucking awesome... Just... Really great job, Noah. Watching your videos makes me feel less alone. You have a special gift
We need to belong. It's key to survival. We twist all our behavior around that simple reality. All the variations of this aren't wrong they're human. ❤
hey Noah just a casual fitness enjoyer -- if you want to work on your core, you should start there. As you've seen, if you get too tired doing other stuff, you won't have the gas to really work your abs. The thing you work first should be the thing that's the most important to you. Still perfectly OK to do abs at the end like you've been doing, but you won't get much results beyond burning calories. Just my two Lincolns!
These videos are a great look into your developing new/different habits. I'm primarily a "listener", either while on a walk or doing chores, but I"m going to go back and watch this one again since I've been adding more weightlifting & calesthenics to my running routine and really want to see the exercise form.
I've been watching your videos every morning to put myself in the right mindset to tackle the rest of the day.
babe wake up, new noah time! yippee
Booboobababbibibbababa
canned tuna on dry bread was my go-to snack for years. I think it's more common than people realize
i start work at 6am PST so its been nice to start my day with your vids
I’m a hold over from before! I think you started Noah Fit here before you created that separate channel. I also think the “getting everyone to like you” isn’t solely vanity. Like other people have said, it could come from the desire to avoid confrontation, which we can all agree sucks. I’ve also had the same question at various points through my life and that’s a possible answer I’ve come up with. Love the content man!
inspiring to a ridiculous degree. keep it up man
noah i was able to finish all my laundry and pack for my trip excellent video as always
Always the first thing I watch in the morning, before anyone else is awake. Need to start doing yoga while I watch them (I am old, and body no worky in the AM).
Trying to resist the urge to do the "Generally speaking" drop is very relatable.
I can't even bust one pull up 😢 so you are doing great. My guy
i make something similar to your tuna dish but i also add green onion, tomato, and sriracha
You're doing great! Do that hike! I tried to hike in Thailand and was completely unprepared lol it was not a great time but very pretty!
Yeah I feel that evidence gathering thing. The bad things seem to weigh more than the good. Like 5 evidence of good things would need to counter the 1 instance of bad things
@@memegazeryes yes I am working on trying to trust the good responses and feedback more and get a better sense of self while balancing how I think I’m perceived
Sometimes I wish I did more traveling as a kid so I could tell my friends how cool it was. But I'm somewhat fine enjoying more peace in my life than adventures
how on earth is it possible for you to drop a new video every other hour - i‘m excited but also stressed!!
Thoughtful and cute
Hey man, new to the channel but I'm enjoying your stuff! Maybe you've talked about it in other vids, but I'm super curious about your place - where are you? Does Thai league server mean you're in Thailand? What's that living experience been like?
Passing judgment on others is to pass judgment upon the self.
Shoulder pain gang rise up 🙏🏼 lmao don’t push it if it starts to feel pinch-y though!❤
im usin weights first, then calisthenics. i cant do a single chinup. yet. but i use to do 10 of them stupidly. tryna turn that back on again
"you should leave those ants alone!" - a group of ants that have learned how to use their combined strength to type and just want to bite you
jk they're cool
i recommend the book “status anxiety” by alain de botton for those who are curious about the different contexts of being “liked” and seen!
noah think about the fact that you’re supposed to take frequent breaks in order to use your brain in a way that is healthy so when u feel a pee coming just think ok i can take a mental break and then my brain will be even better when im back after i pee
dude if i knew you, youd be the coolest guy i know. you're literally making workout vlogs in a jungle
i was making tuna salad when noah started opening cans of tuna omg tuna twins
You gotta try korean tuna pancakes (chamchijeon) Best way to eat canned tuna
you should watch squat university’s tips on doing pull ups, gotta engage your back a bit more and stabilize your core and what not
He just like me fr fr fr
Real ones remember spoofs and goofs
people say don't eat rice left at room temp cuz a specific bacteria that causes really painful food poisoning grows in it and you can't kill it by reheating the rice. but like most food poisoning it's mostly dangerous to young old and sick people so you'll probably be ok. but a sushi restaurant by me just had to close down cuz they poisoned like 14 high school students and I think some had to go to the hospital.
When I was a kid a fly flew in my ear when I was trying to sleep so I’m 29 and still absolutely cannot stand the sound of a fly buzzing around me, so that beehive business makes perfect sense
Keep it up bb champion
You privated all your old stuff?! Glad I had already seen it.
you're definitely a sparkly lil sweetie in my mind, noahbb
I can't type beebeebaabaabooboo for too long cuz my shoulder hurts. 😤
heyyyyeeeyyyyYYyyyeyyyyy
Dang, was that a thirst trap thumbnail or do I just have a problem?
Really tho, you're doing great and I appreciate these videos so much.
5 am ☕ gang ❤
Two cans of Sheba with rice and mayo... sounds great! 😋
I know im only noticing this now, but when noah said he currently lives near the woods, he wasnt kidding
Isn't it kind of funny how we do exercises to simulate the manual labor that used to be involved in everyday tasks?
