Many people envy me as I am still young yet successful at this age. People tell I got success. But I never feel that way. What I have now is sort of leftover sadness. Life is no more exciting :/ thank you for the video.
Hi Noah I completely relate to this! I'm 41 and feel like my whole life I've been climbing a mountain and I'm finally at the summit. I feel like instead of enjoying the view I need to climb another better mountain or one in which will be more socially acceptable and praised. I'm anxious about the future because I see others that have climbed more complex or popular mountains and I wonder if I didn't aim as high as I should have. I think societal and familial expectations are powerful and can make someone doubt their own path in life. I'm learning to stay present, relax and enjoy my own personal view!
I mean a career is needed, money is essential if you want to have a family etc... Survival most come before happiness, do you not agree? I agree on sports though, it seems no matter how much they won in previous seasons they cant stop looking for more
If you don't already have success, it might be difficult for you to understand what I'm speaking about. Once your survival is already ensured, the next focus becomes on happiness.
Check out maslow's hierarchy of needs and you'll understand that yes you must first meet basic needs before you can realize self actualization and higher needs.
Anthony De Mello - "If all your desires are fulfilled, you will be happy. Not true. In fact it is these very desires that make you tense, frustrated, nervous, insecure and fearful."
Because our ego will never get fulfilled, no matter what are the ambitions or desires we chase. Our mind It is like a beggar - more it gets, more it wants. All we have to do, is to understand how the mind works. so we could drop the desires and calm the greedy mind. We should stay in present moment to feel happiness and bliss. Where to rush - we are already here! That's my personal advice. Love!
Hello, Noah ....thank you so much....I am reading your guide to present moment book and your book n videos are helping me emotionally healthy and emotionally intelligent😊😊😊😊god bless you and help you prosper in every creative endeavor u encounter👍👍👍
I believe that happiness comes with inner peace, when I visualize your films I feel like I'm in balance and I'm regaining the peace of my soul. Thanks so much Noah Elkrief!
“Happiness is part of our nature.” Such a beautiful and comforting quote knowing that we don’t have to work hard to be happy, we can allow ourselves to be happy in the present. I appreciate listening to your wisdom and gentle voice. Plenty of times I ask myself when a difficult emotion arises”what would noah say?”I’ve never met you and it’s amazing how much of an impact someone can have on us without even meeting. Sending you love and look forward to the next video as always.
Happiness like the sun can't shine through our compulsive cloudy mind just as street lamps, televisions and smartphones dull the starry skies.

A million dollars in the bank doesn’t bring back your dead loved ones. So no, success and money doesn’t equal happiness.
I haven't watched it but I've saved it to watch when I actually become successful.
Right now I'm unsuccessful + unhappy = miserable

I hear you Eric. Enjoy your vantage point :)
Beautiful, Noah ♥️🙏 Always appreciate your wisdom and calm, compassionate delivery.

In my opinion, success and personal happiness and fulfillment are both important.
