    I’m an upper limb amputee and I hide it by wearing long sleeve shirts all the time but now I feel like I just wanna wear whatever I want except that I’m scared of how others will perceive me. Since the amputation, my family raised me over-protectively and so it was there when they started buying me only long sleeve shirts and from there I grew up being afraid of what others might think if they ever saw my limb difference along with my scars. This vid has revealed to me that it is my desire to be perceived as a “normal” person but what is normal anyway?? Now I will try to be brave and wear the cool graphic t-shirts I’ve always wanted to wear. Thanks a lot and shout out to Nietzsche

      I think he was just being nice. He was just politely brushing aside his feelings because they are an obstacle. Your feelings are neither valid or invalid, they are just the result of your desires and understanding. This video could easily be called, your "feelings are your own worse enemy." To let feelings entirely dictate your actions is like letting a horse decide where you should go instead of you. If your just a bundle of feelings, then you will end up as an animal, another person in the crowd who won't think for themselves. One of your most primal desires is to survive and going along with everybody is one of the easiest ways to do that. But animals just survive. You are a human and as such, you may have greater desires than merely survival. Consider the student acrobat. What animal would willing do acrobat stunts for entertainment? And don't say monkey... no monkey is going train himself or do great acts like a professional acrobat would, because it takes actual training and work to be good at it. So ask yourself this question, do you want to be an animal or the best human you can be?

      @@Jimraynor45 I dont think he was being nice but I think its more about the fact that ppl sometimes have the worst feelings and based on those feelings, they freak out and torture themselves by thinking that these feelings define who they are and just want them gone cause it generates a whole other feeling of "feeling bad" ab whatchu experiencing. For example I have OCD, and first time i experienced intrusive thoughts, I had no idea what the fuck was going on and I couldnt bring myself to even talk to someone about that. But here's the thing, this really goes hand in hand with what you're saying because if you act based on these intrusive desires/thoughts or even feelings then definitely, youd be nothing but a robot or live life based on them and not with your brain.
      But that doesnt mean that these thoughts/desires/feelings aint valid, they are, but they're not you and you shouldnt judge yourself based on that. For example meditation is the perfect example for this; when you notice a thought arising, simply notice it and return back to your breathing. Noticing it equals that you acknowledge its valid but its not you.

    The acrobat example was so relatable! I conquered my fear, quit my day job and started working as a professional magician. At 21 I was earning more than both of my parents combined!!
    .
    edit: the way I wrote it made it seem like it was about the money indeed and whoever tried to live out of their passion know that the pressure is huge, everyone telling you "you can't make money with art" etc etc.. so money was a huge thing for my relatives. Working with something you love is incredible, I can't imagine living any other way after that. Give it a try!

    I think this is one of the major issues in western culture. We strive for the respect of the people around us even though they may be nothing like us. This is a sort of conformity that stifles the individuals character, twisting and warping them into a less happy productive good person.
    It’s also very difficult being your own person. You have to be very aware of who you are and courageous enough to be that person, and constantly run the risk of being out of balance and becoming someone no one respects

He definitely didnt say its an easy battle to win but recognizing its an internal personal struggle with yourself is a good starting point if you want to find some kind of peace.

      If fear stems from desire couldn’t one easily say that those who have suffered from Trauma have gained desire to be free from it? Maybe then trauma survivors have more desire than others. They desire to be safe more than others. Recognizing less worry about safety is warranted would make one feel safer. I think this is accordance with Nietzsche’s proposed solution.
      Also, talking your way out of it is not what’s being proposed; it’s more understanding your way out it. The 2nd one is a lot harder than the first.

      Well if you're the real deal you'll be able to develop a niche/a style original and specific enough that everyone who likes it will be able to obtain it from you and you only. If you simply like to draw occasionally or to cover other artists songs then it's maybe for the best to keep it just as a hobby and instead invest the majority of your time in some sort of work where you're able to constantly contribute and create value. Eg my earnings from my art as well as my style increased drastically since I became a janitor. Why? Because I removed the desire and the fear out of the way and I'm able to create with full freedom without thinking what if people don't like my next thing.

    I only have one question. "If something is a necessity for you, you better _believe_ it will be a necessity for someone else too..." That seems to be the only weak link. What if that belief is wrong and the stakes are high?

    Man I've really got to work hard on improving myself.

Now that comfort zone has gone and I have the opportunity to follow my heart, I'm finding it a real challenge. Every day is a struggle to overcome fear and excuses why I shouldn't do it. Not to mention the government and society pressuring me into being part of their system and forgetting about my dreams.

    I completely agree with you backtracing of stimuli and solving them, ultimately we reach a point where things change when we get in contact with noticed knowledge, that's why if we read a philosophical book, the unnoticed thing becomes noticed and then understanding of surrounding then desire then thought then stimuli, the best way is to question your fear and if things are not in control then accept it and take responsibility on what's in your control. I wish you all have a great life and freedom of thought next target 10 million. If you want to read a philosophical book then I'll recommend Seven "Spiritual Laws Of Sucess".

  • @Kevin-rf5zh

    Part of the reason we conform is because the economy demands it of us. The video notes that the student is afraid of not making any money and having to live on the streets, but it doesn't offer any real solutions to that fear. I don't know how much trapeze artists make but there's a reason there aren't that many: the demand is not that high. Poverty is a valid fear; not everyone is able to make a living following their dream, and in the US at least we have no safety net for people who "fail." (Most often the safety net for creative people is their families, therefore the pressure to choose a "normal" career path.) The ideal would be for everyone to follow their dreams, but many of us literally cannot do so without risking our lives.

    My issue with this take is that thoughts arise from desires. For example, if I’m on a bridge and think about what would happen if I throw my expensive sell phone away down the long drop, I don’t necessarily “want” to throw my phone into the abyss. I believe thoughts come from our mind, and understanding how one’s mind operates if much more useful than understanding desires. Everyone ticks in a different way based on how they grew up and surrounding circumstance. Therefore understanding desires is not enough, where do those desires COME from, and why? That is where you understand how your mind is structured which is informed on how one developed. Loved the video, really made me think.

    I have a boss who loves telling everyone to “change their mindset and thoughts” when he is the most toxic and nasty person ever. He’ll berate you and humiliate you, then tell you “well maybe you just need to change your mindset.” He thinks abusive behavior is a justified because it teaches you to be stronger.

      Reminds me of Osho vs Buddhism, with buddhists detaching from/rejecting desires but being left in a state of coldness. It's always been my personal pov too. There's one phrase that I found perfectly expressed this: detachment is not that you should own nothing, but that nothing should own you. It's not about rejecting desires or anything worldly and materialistic, it's about enjoying them from a place of no-mind/no-ego where there's no identification with said things, therefore no hope nor expectation, no compulsion nor urge to control and no fear, only will to experience and share.

    So instead of relying on your fear vanishing for you to do something your scared about for reasons, you should keep moving ahead even when you still feel scared or maybe even terrified to do something because that’s what it means to be strong

    One of the greatest people born, Father Tadey had a theory about human thoughts, describing it in a way that "the way you think directly reflects on your life". I think this theory proved itself correct in many ways and I speak from my personal experience as well. I think it is quite similar to this theory. You are your own worst enemy not only because of your fears that drift from your desires, but also because we as people tend to paint ourselves in dark and negative colors and numbness. This works it's way to our brain and mindset and we seriously start seeing the way we think about them and describe them.
    So in a way, the point is to try and direct our thoughts in a lighter direction, not optimism, but a positive side of realism where we stay truthful to ourselves, still aware of both the negative and positive sides of life but not making it any more difficult with thinking miserably.

    So if I understand right:
    Don't let the people you happen to have around you impose their ideas onto you. Don't serve their ideals to earn their respect.
    Instead, do what you love and manifest your innermost desires. Then surround yourself with the people who respect you for what it is that you do.
    This reminds me of the principle that you shouldn't wait for happiness to come from nowhere to motivate you to go and pick up some meaningful work. Instead, do the work no matter how you're feeling now, then you'll be happy with yourself and what you've accomplished. Don't wait for motivation to work. Work, and then you'll be happy.
