      +Otis Quinoa Wanka They know Leo's channel is awesome. RSD is the best for pickup by far, and Julien's channel is growing in the self-development so it's a hard choice. Good times to be subscribed to both. :)

    Realize there are no others. We are all connected and can only be separated by mental constructs and labels. Then it becomes a collaboration of energy versus a comparison. Great video Leo.

      Well.. on the physical level we actually are. Atoms next to other atoms that have just different combinations that create "separate" entities. For example, the human body is whole.. but on a smaller scale.. it is an ecosystem of different bacteria, organs, fungus etc etc.

    Re frames suggested
    1. Self worth does not exist - No amount of accomplishments ever gives you worth. Sit down and think from where the worth comes from...things don't have worth
    2.Human beings are too complex to compare...Apple vs Orange
    3.Competition is stupid - Matured adult is creator
    4.Yes I have handicaps just like everyone else....accept natural strengths and weaknesses
    5.Being normal is overrated - accept you eccentricities
    6.I'm too busy loving myself - take ownership of your life
    7.I love to see people succeed....

      @chrisnuenthel8937 5 лет назад +28

      Really most ppl are losers. Not in the sense that I'm shaming or saying I am any better. But few ppl live up to their true potential, or perhaps even few are truly happy. In that sense we are all failures. But to label failure or loser is subjective, it's comparing and it's illusionary. It really does not matter. But for the sake of relative realities, I've noticed the most judgemental, shaming, most assigning ppl, argumentative, need to win, subjective ppl in life that are least understanding, practical and loving ppl are the most unhappy. The ones to first throw stones and tell u how ur a failure r the biggest failures. The hurt, hurt others. U must have graditude for everything. Even failures because they teach. Even rude nasty ppl, they teach.

    • @chrisnuenthel8937
      @chrisnuenthel8937 5 лет назад +13

      Some ppl chase money so much it loses all meaning. No matter how much they earn it will never be enough. Yet some ppl are penniless and find value in little things. Success is not how much u get, it's how much wht u get profoundly affects u. To be numb because u seek too much is a sad position to be in.

  • @Yourhighnessnona
    @Yourhighnessnona 7 лет назад +131

    If you are completely aware of your own unique individuality, it becomes the most honorable value that you have. In comparing yourself to others, it is easy to celebrate someone else's beauty, success and talent, without devaluating your own if you are aware of your individuality - or celebrate your own beauty, succes and talent, without devaluating the other. Individuality is unique, and unique is not competitive, dependend nor comparable. So, comparing yourself is not inherently bad. In fact, it is only natural and it serves many obvious purposes. It is how you value yourself within a comparison that makes all the difference.

    • @flyingsoul7147
      @flyingsoul7147 6 лет назад +1

      Donna Roselyn well said. I agree with you. We are born to compare with others. Its how you take into perspective that matters. If comparing yourself to others affects your mind then you are probably devaluing yourself.

    • @noellesavidou1688
      @noellesavidou1688 3 года назад +1

      I have to disagree with you, Donna. There is a fine, subtle difference between comparing yourself to others and observing their qualities, successes, etc. and so discovering whether it is something you would be able or want to develop within yourself. Leo makes this distinction very clearly. In this way you can see others and yourself as extensions of consciousness, all creating at their own rate and ability. This distinction has been very important for me and my growth, and I find I can truly rejoice in the success etc. of others. Namaste🙏❤️

  •  7 лет назад +53

    Awesome vidéo, thanks you a lot Leo !
    My notes of the video :
    7 reframes :
    1. No amount of accomplishement gives you worth ! ( spiritual insight)
    2. Human-being are too complex to compare.
    Differentes experiences, environnement, personnality, ressources, focus . Somme people want work more in spiritual and no money, some will focus on career and neglate health and relationship, some will focus on relationship and neglate career, … We see only the surface on people, the emmerged piece of the ice-berg. So

    3. Competition is stupide ! Be a creator …
    Focus on you, your own work, your purpose and value.
    4. Yes I have handicaps ! Weakness… Reframe them positively and focus on your strenght ! Let go …
    5. Being normal is overrated ! The average person is mediocre….
    The goal is to be yourself ! The actualization process can be defined as the gradual ability to be ourself, to express our personnality.
    6. I am too busy loving myself to having time to compare myself to others
    7. I love to see people succeed ! ( Abundance mindset vs scarcity mindset)
    Success of others are like a menu that you can take and add what they have to your vision. Divorce the quality of the personne !
    8.Being a creator open an infinite ressources and possibilities… ideas are infinite ! …
    The only useful and positif comparaison is to see what is possible and expand your vision and how much you can have, transform and get of life …

    2] Human beings are too complex to compare
    3] Competition is stupid
    4] I have handicaps. Focus on ur strengths
    5] Being normal is over-rated. Being authentic
    6] Love urself unconditionally
    7] I love to see people succed

    35:25 to 38:24 that's the healthiest, best attitude. Very good explaination. Such truth. Amazing.
    What you think is what you become. Think positive and center your life around these positive thoughts, and happiness will come to you. It's just meant to happen that way. Negativity will attract negativity, and likewise positive thoughts will attract positive things. It's all about the mindset.

I was first put in a youth psych ward when I was 16, and it seemed as though after every 'breakthrough' I quickly devolved into my previously neurotic state. I'm 25 now, and it had only gotten worse. i had literally not left my house in a year, never walked out of the front door once. honestly, finding your videos was the best thing that has happened to me in this regard. your videos have made breakthroughs in a matter of months, versus the years of work I've put in via other avenues. thank you, leo. thank you with every bit of me. I left my house a few days ago, and I feel alive again. looking forward to this path of self actualization and owning my life.

I have a friend i used to call in tears on a regular basis when i was younger and she would pick up the phone, hear my tears and ask me "are you comparing yourself to others or projecting into the future?". And while I've discovered some of your reframes for myself over the years, casually and inconsistently, in listening to this talk for the second time now, it's really sticking with me and making a difference. Thank you. I'll be listening again. And to more of your stuff.

I love them, and I'm happy for them if they're happy but I do sometimes find myself getting a bit mad/sad at myself for not having specific things, but I LOVE the idea of just adding those things to my life list.
    What a brilliant idea. Happiness for all.

    I've just completed the 30 day challenge. 20 mins meditation each day ... I,ve actually been doing it a little longer each day. I'm a 53 year old man and I wish someone had told me to do this 30 years ago. Just the last 30 days has changed me so much, and it's all positive. Thank you Leo for putting yourself out there. For me life is becoming magical already, in comparison to what it was. You want to be a nobody ... i'm nowhere near that stage yet .. just now you are a F..king legend.

    I'm an athlete, and I work hard to improve my skills.
    so no matter how good I'll be or how much effort I will put into it- it doesn't make me worth anymore than anyone else (if at all).
    then why am I participating in competitions? why do I get a medal? it's wrong because why do I get something that someone else doesn't? I'm not worth anything.
    i don't run after the titles, I'm not hungry for success. but I have experienced the fear of being knocked off of number one.
    so how should I go about this? put away my medals and trophies? stop competing?
    stop training altogether?
    I love the sport and enjoy making new elements and skills within the sport. love the feeling I get when I try new things and be creative. I enjoy the challenge whether or not I succeed to overcome them or not.

      Noga Divone I arm wrestle competitively and I have the same problem but I think the solution is to go into the competition not with the mindset that “I’m gonna do my best to win this comp”. Say instead “im going to do everything in my power to do my best and if I can do that then I have succeeded”

    I can't believe I never thought about turning my envy into a vision. This is perfect, I don't even have to visualize it, all I need to do is watching the people of whom I am jealous and getting myself motivated. These all make sense!

    I couldn't dial into your videos at first, until I actually DECIDED that I need to change myself. Who I am, what I think and how I think. Between self help books and your site, I've found a new freedom. Im so excited about the things I'm learning about myself. I sometimes fall off, but am quickly back on.
    I've done very well in life, but it was this that made me realize that earthly possessions are a temporary high, they are truly awesome when they don't define our joy, but add to it.
    Thanks Leo.

    Very informative. One analogy that has helped me gain more self-awareness .
    Picture yourself in a dark room, completely submersed in darkness in front of you is a door. Your whole life your looking up down left right every direction for a solution to your problem. Imagine I told you all you have to do is look forward and open the door. The door is you, you’ve analyzed everything around you in the external world with massive frustration you have forgotten that answer is within. Once I noticed this I realized my attitude towards other people was my biggest problem and it has changed my whole perspective.

      +76h21 I totally agree! It is the mind that has given us all that we see which is artificial and abstract. Yes, the esthetics have played a role in the perpetuation of the human species. However, it is the mind of the people past that have given the opportunity for the perpetuation of the species.

    in the beginning I was following this, but towards the end I lost you. you say that there's not value to any object, just what we place on it, but then at the same time you say you study remarkable human beings and look up to them. if everything is worthless, meaningless, then why are you placing meaning on certain characteristics rather than others? what's the point of self development ?

    • @Scarface1337_
      @Scarface1337_ 8 лет назад +1

      To use the mindsets that help you and drop the ones that don't. If you study remarkable people you'll pick up great mindsets, and live an awesome life. It's still all meaningless though, your ego doesn't want to accept that. It wants to feel pride and superiority.

    • @chrisnuenthel8937
      @chrisnuenthel8937 5 лет назад

      Meaning works in a practical sense. You want to be happy for example, but this happiness only has meaning in a practical sense. It makes u feel good. But to the cosmos, when u die, it will not matter. To whomever cares if ur happy, when they die then literally no one and nothing will care if u were happy or not. So his lessons apply to the practicality of how u want to live, but it doesn't matter at all fundamentally. But what brings us most happiness is presence. Even some ppl find pleasure from pain so I thoroughly believe presence bring pleasure. It's that most ppl lose presence when they experience pain. They try to run from it mentally, and it's quite natural it actually takes a lot of training to for example stab urself in the foot and give total intentional focus to it. But in a practical sense there's not really a reason to intentionally hurt urself but life wears on us, there's all sorts of aches and pains we do our best to ignore. So it's all about what's practical. But u actually heal when u focus on those pains.
