00:00: The key to your 20s is constant learning and keeping an open mind. Life should be on two tracks: adventurous exploration and focused skill-building.
01:02: Avoid being one-track (focused solely on career) or five-track (scatterbrained). Find balance between skill specialization and varied experiences.
02:23: Learning languages, like through Babbel, cultivates discipline and competence, enabling meaningful interactions in different cultures.
03:19: Embrace a "two-track mind" in your twenties: be open to experiences while focusing on a core passion, funneling various experiences toward skill development.
05:09: Maintain excitement by studying what aligns with your passion; combine adventure and skill growth for a fulfilling twenties.
06:18: Aim to have learned, experienced, and discovered your direction by your 30th birthday, ready to take your pursuits to the next level.
Thanks alot ✰
Thank you
I'm 23, from Brazil, and learning my third language. I'm reading your book Mastery, and I'm so glad that knowing English gave me access to an amazing and powerful book. You are a very inspiring person and a true gem, Robert! Especially for me that hadn't some kind of parental orientation, and had to learn by ups and downs while experiencing life. God bless you a lot!
im at your age too. have made self improvement for the last 3 years. now after this couple of month ive been slacking off. my discipline went off the grid. lost my desire to learn. read books. im getting too comfortable again. and i payed the consequences. now im already trying to fix my focus. And reading your comment fortify it. i dont know anyone around my age that are like me. may the fire of those who seek warmth never dies
Marcus, my friend, what is the third language that you're learning? Greetings from Mexico.
I’m learning Spanish siding doulingo it’s a pretty fun app and I know a bit of it already
Vamo que vamo 💪
Aprender espanhol nao conta como "linguagem aprendida". É praticamente a mesma coisa.
I'm a 25yo Mechanical Engineer and I always agreed with having two tracks. I focus on my studies and ME dicipline, while also having plenty of hobbies that I am trying to turn into long term creative outlets. I am happily married and have new dog and we just bought a house. I am very serious about balancing my future and not forgetting to have fun along the way!
damn ur all set man
💪👏🏻
That's awesome man, you're good to go.
25yo, wow. You're set.
32. Struggled throughout my teens and 20s to strive through a toxic environment and learned helplessness enabled by parental gaslighting. Never excelled at sports because I was manipulated to think “I wasn’t born for it”. Never had a long-standing relationship because I was convinced with the false idea that I wasn’t “good enough”. Never won any competitions or contests because I never even tried to. At age 28, after the straw that broke the camel’s back, I took the chance to stop playing victim and break the chains that bound me thanks to the only skill I have been ever consistent in: Japanese.
I now live in Japan, slowly healing my wounds and learning new things little by little. I have been practicing turntable scratch mixing and started my a career from scratch with my English, Spanish and Japanese language skills as foundations. Sports may take a while, but as long as I’m still able to keep up, I will never give up.
Even though I have always struggled with self discipline, life in Japan has helped me temper that, because of the many rules and norms this culture is famous for.
Thank you Robert, your works have opened my eyes and taught me to keep my mind open and keep learning the best I can.
Go to a local gym and get into working out, watch fitness youtube videos for athleticism, and once you think you’re ready try a sport in japan somewhere
You mean language? A country or an ethnicity is not a skill. My skill isn't Chinese either. Weeeeb

Hell yea! I’m 18. Loving seeing a young man on his grind
I’m 16 and I want to get a head start. Any advice on what books to read first?
Yep it’s all about thinking you’re Better than your “friends”
At age 20-22 I was burnt out and severely depressed with the drive for a degree, because my parents were indeed pushing it and I felt it was the way and only the way in life. Luckily I came out of that, managed to heal my mind and realised the importance of real skills. Studying is not the same as learning, and it's also important to discover and understand yourself.
Currently teaching myself Japanese (great timing for the Babbel sponsor!) and got a part time job, all the while (finally) chasing after something I've always wanted to do. Good luck all, it's never too late. Thank you Robert for this video, I will be reading your books.

P.S. Isn't being multilingual detrimental to writing? Like isn't it best to only nourish one language instead of five and making a jumble that prevents you from writing as best as you possibly could? I speak Serbian and English and I know that when I watch a video in English, I think in English for the following hours and if something occurs to me to write, it always comes out in English. And needless to say I'm better at writing in Serbian 'cause that's what I'm exposed to more. If you are multilingual and such a good writer at the same time, then I guess you're quite unique, right?

Thank you for that beautiful message, i turned 18 and graduated high school. One of my best friend’s mom told us that ”this is the perfect year to re-invent yourself” I am looking forward to improve myself and enjoy my time. Best wishes to you and everyone who is seeing this message
Just got out of rehab, jail and the works . Watching a lot of your material has been a huge component to me working on myself. Thanks dude
Learning all about myself and how others work. I feel like this is such essential learning. We deal with people our whole life. Making money seems so superficial when the main goal is to spend the time understanding who you are and who you could become, that’s such a genuine goal
But what if your actually interested in money and economics which is strongly tied to psychology and how people work?

I'm just getting into my 20's and this video was so reaffirming for my current mindset. Hearing the same thoughts from the man who already lived his youth fully makes me believe in myself, thank you Robert.
I’m gonna be 18 in a Few Months.
As a Teen who’s never had many friends, is Constantly working to improve himself but nearly always gets stuck in a rut and Life always seems to beat him down…what do I do for my Birthday? What do I do for Life in general? 18 is such a Special Time.
Interesting, right after turning 30 is that I realized exactly what I want to be and spend my life on. I already have a degree, and means for making money, but now AT 30, I can finally say, I KNOW WHAT I WANT in life!! and it feels so good to choose something purely out of love for it and not because of a diploma or money! it is like falling in love!! he is so right in his words!! God bless everyone!
I'm curious, what is this passion of yours?
I'm curious as well, what is it?
Hahah since ya'll asked xD
Ok, here it goes. I love science, specifically marine life. That was the only thing my 7-year-old self cared about. So now I'm gonna take my 7-year-old self to school and this time we'll learn about what we love.
This year I've been re-learning high school math and science, they are not as hard as I remember.
It will be a long process but I'm hoping to make my 40s a very interesting decade and of course make my inner child happy.
7-year-old me would be proud and thrilled to see what I'm doing right now!!😁
I'm so happy to be alive!!
@@Herrera_70 aww that’s so awesome! you just brightened my day with that :)) Best of luck!
@@Remonade- Hey! thank you for reading😁 you have a nice day!
I am 24 and I've recently settled into a two track lifestyle. I am getting my degree in Software Engineering which is something I swapped to pretty late in my college career. I did not enjoy my previous educational path, and the high stress and depression almost killed me. Now I am happy, and I am working on my creative outlet as a second track. Been learning game dev for the last 4 years, and finally making a large scale project in the game engine that I started building last year. Super happy with how my life is going now. Everything you say is true. Two-track is a sweet spot that took me 6 years of my life to settle on to find happiness. I still have other interests that I pursue as to not get burned out, but never at the detriment of school or my gamedev journey.
What was the previous educational path?
@@AbhishekSachans civil engineering
@@sagitswag1785 Achcha
how do you make your own game engine? sounds tedious
@@Cimex090 there are a lot of reason why it's more fun for me to work with my own engine rather than a prebuilt one like unity. As to how, I started by watching the handmade hero series on RUclips, and reading the Jason Gregory engine architecture book.
I have been studying self development and trying to improve myself a lot in the last year or so thanks to my first entrepreneural project as well, yet I think that this video will remain as one of the best pieces of advice that I have ever been given so far and, as far ad I can predict, I have a feeling that watching this will turn out to be a good turning point in my life for the best, just I don't know how much time it could take to realize. So, I really thank you Mr. Greene, I can't wait to watch new content and read more of your books !
The man speaks truth, for most people your 20s are make or break, im 24y/o and already can see the 3 types you mention in my friends, people who got a job straight out of college and are already in the tracks and changing carreers is like impossible, and people with no sense of urgency that tries things and never finish, i am more in the second group, discipline is hard but has payed off great in complementary skills but not the ones that require more effort and mental toughness like writing or drawing, greetings from Chile :)
Hey Robert, thank you so much. Seriously, as someone who's in their twenties i realize that everyone (In their twenties) is either attempting to do thirty things at once or stuck at a 9-5. Thats not say say that they're doing wrong or bad, but your spot on with the two track mind. There's no in-between when talking to them, either it's all go or "playing it safe". As someone who personally experienced and had tons of jobs in my early twenties, i can say that this scares me when i talk to people my age.
being a person who's suffering from a quarter life crisis, that video made me feel so calm and peaceful, thanks a lot ❤️
I can't thank you enough for everything you've written. I wake up to notifications of your tweets and every single of them is golden. I many times meditate on them and set my mind in focus before I get into the madhouse
I am at 35 still lost. But i made the decision to accept what life has already given and be thankful.
Too late bro.

As a person entering their mid 20s I appreciate this video. I feel very ambitious but have had to experiment my way into seeing which kind of businesses I would like to be a part of. I also really enjoy traveling so I make that work as well. Definitely feel like Im on the two track path, although I know sometimes I need to be less hard on myself, and more open to fun.
Thank you
This is reminiscent of a video of when Joe Rogan interviewed Jordan Peterson (episode #1208). Peterson said the following at 2:04:32 :
"You should push yourself beyond the limits of tolerance in your twenties to find out where it is. How much can you work? How disciplined can you become? Can you work 12 hours a day? Can you work 8 hours a day? Can you work 3 hours a day? Like flat out, where is your limit? How much work can you do, and how much socialisation? You should find out. Push yourself past [the limit], then back off to the point where it is optimally sustainable...It is good to think about that as a goal to find out where your limitations are in your twenties so that you can hit that edge to sustain yourself across the decades...Some discipline along with the fun is a good idea."
I would adopt what Peterson said in that interview. Moreover, contrary to what Greene seems to suggest, my view is that there is nothing wrong with pursuing a career in law or banking, particularly when it is a genuine ambition of yours. In fact, you can learn a lot of transferable skills in these professions that are applicable and useful in life. People skills, problem solving, time management, and analytical abilities, but to mention a few. It is therefore wrong to suggest that these professions are mind-numbing or that they give you a closed-sighted view of the world. However, where Greene and I may be in agreement is that it is important to pursue your desired career path, but equally making sure that you are adequately keeping yourself (body and soul) healthy and making sure that you have a social life. Of course, work/career does not equate to your entire life. Perhaps this is only so if your aim is to be at the absolute top in your chosen field, but that only applies to a handful of minorities. Even if you are not aiming for the absolute top, I think a lot of people still mistake their work to be their sole purpose in life, which is a detrimental attitude to espouse. But if you can balance your career with other interests (Greene may term this as 'adventure'), then you may find that your life is far more enriched.
Robert Greene is a blessing for us, he wrote the best books in the world. I understand everything he says and I try my best to be disciplined and master what I love in my 20s ❤🔥
He has ALOT of great advice but not ALL is beneficial on a soul level. Discernment and culling information is key.
You look a lot healthier now since your incident. I hope you're exercising and taking care of yourself! Much love to you from one of your biggest fans 🙏🏾😘

Hello sir. I have been a fan of your books for over 4 years now. I am so glad that I took the time to explore your books at the young age of 21. Now, I am 25. Therefore, this video is particularly important to me. When I had severe depression, the last chapter of your book "THE LAWS OF HUMAN NATURE" is one of the main reasons, I am alive right now.

Key Points: 🔑:
🧠 The key to your 20s is constant learning, opening your mind, and acquiring skills.
🛤️ Envision your life as on two tracks: one track is your adventurous side; the other track is the skill-building side.
👨⚖️ Avoid being a one-track person, solely focused on a traditional path like law school or a high-paying job, which can lead to burnout and lack of personal fulfillment.
🎭 Also avoid having too many tracks (like trying too many unrelated things at once) which may result in a lack of solid skills and a life of aimlessness.
📚 He emphasizes learning a language, promoting discipline, competence, and enjoyment. Recommends Babel as a language learning app.
✌️ The "two-track" approach balances adventure with focused learning and skills development.
✍️ For instance, if you know you want to be a writer, try different experiences, but funnel them into your writing.
🧭 Have a clear idea of your interest or passion-be it music, technology, physical activity, literature, etc.-and explore within this parameter.
🌟 On your 30th birthday, ideally, you should be able to say, "I know what I want to do, I have learned so much, and I am ready to take it to the next level."
🚀 Embrace youthful energy, curiosity, and an open attitude towards life, along with a disciplined approach towards skill-building and learning.
💼 If you have entrepreneurial tendencies, try starting different businesses that align with your core interest. Learn from these experiences.
👀 Use your 20s to test out your interests and passions; if you love music, try different forms of it. If you are interested in technology, look for ways to innovate.
💡 Constant learning and skill acquisition are key to your 20s. If you're studying or working in areas you're excited about, your mind will stay open and eager.
🎂 The ultimate goal is to reach your 30th birthday with a wealth of experiences, skills, and a clear direction for your future. This is possible through maintaining a balance between adventurous exploration and focused skill development.
🌍 Explore various cultures and languages, enhancing your world view and building empathy towards other societies. You can use language learning apps like Babel to facilitate this.
📚 While exploring and having adventures, remain focused on your core interest. If you want to be a writer, for example, ensure all your experiences contribute towards that goal.
🎯 Identify what connects with you deeply - be it music, technology, business, literature, science, physical activity, etc. Use this as a guiding principle for your explorations.
💪 Use the discipline you've developed while learning a new language or skill to manage other aspects of your life.
🔭 Above all, keep an adventurous spirit and a love for learning. This will make your journey more enjoyable and your 30th birthday a milestone to look forward to.
Great summary!! Tqsm
This affirms for me that I did my 20’s correctly. I recently turned 30 and I was concerned about how well I stewarded my 20’s. I was on two tracks. First… become a wildly successful chef and successful independent music label owner. Second… learn at least 2-3 languages. (I ended up becoming low level fluent in Spanish and circumstantially fluent in French). I thought that since I didn’t get a degree or get married too that I failed my 20’s, but the truth is that it’s not good to a Jack of all trades and master nothing in your 20’s. That’s why life is often broken up into decades, and our goals should be too.
That's like 4-5 tracks...

Thanks for all your input, Master Robert.
I was 13 when i discovered your books and then now your youtube channel, you're such a good educator.
Why did this short video brought soooo much clarity?!
Wish I knew this before. I am 60 and I've been down hundreds of tracks. I always succeed, for a minute. Now I'm old, have nothing to show for shit. BUT now I'm going to try again. That's what I do. I try.
Here's the rub-
Many of the things I started, I see someone else killin it $$$ years later.
I’m 17 and I’ve been seeing your videos for the past 2 months tell taught me a lot 🙏
Thank you Mr.Greene for your helpful words!
Got 48 rules of power recently - so far it's been an awesome and useful reading
Sir, thank you so much for the wisdom you're sharing with us, your books really made us open our eyes, i am following every principle you said in your books and they're very useful, when i started applying it, I witnessed my life changing slowly, Thank you would be very small word, I wish to meet you someday sir.
Having Excitement is the key!
Yes! Always. Be. Learning.
You put it into words what I was thinking myself. I'm 20 atm, with quite an uncertain future ahead of me because I finally decided not to take the academic route, but the lack of disciplinary structure to my life feels like I can run down all 5 paths at once. I think youtubers and tech entrepreneurs can often glamorize this 5 path mentality that you talk about, ("drop out and start a business and become really successful" type thing) but there is really quite a risky element to it, being left with nothing solid to build the rest of your life with. Idk why this feels preachy, just voicing my thanks.
Also the 'learn' part was great, intuitively i know I shouldn't be pursuing things I'm not truly interested in, and the fact of burnout and that you can learn much faster if you actually care makes alot of sense to me.
a lot of these 5 path people come from well to do families where they dont need a traditional education because they went to expensive boarding schools and have vast social networks to get things done. The average person from a regular family needs to go to college to build stability a young age so they can have the freedom to do what they want later. What Robert doesn't understand is most suffering comes from people who didn't do the right things at a young age like getting a degree in a stable field and now they have to do it older with less energy, more responsibility, and stress.
You are very well spoken for a twenty year old you are also self aware about the things in your life that may be detrimental you have everything you need to be successful just trust yourself
Also, you won't be hearing on the media from the dropouts who didn't succeed so that leads to a fake impression that every dropout is a successful person.

We're kind of in the same boat. I'm 16 and still in hs. I'll go to college most likely as a backup plan or, in truth, I'll be forced to go there by my parents. Honestly, I don't want to because i feel like I can do so much more if I just learn a high income skill in those 4 years instead of getting a bachelor's degree. These decisive moments are what make life interesting, so we just gotta be risky sometimes.
One of the best author of all time.
I really appreciate Robert Green advice for life ❤️
One of my heros. Thanks Robert for everything, very grateful for your work
Well said Sir.
Mr Greene you I must thank you a lot, I'm 21, and I've never heard someone giving this kind of advise ever, most people just talk about and nothing else, and I get it money is very important, but as you mentioned, if we don't even enjoy what we do, it doesn't matter how much money we make, sooner or later we'll have a burnout. Greetings from Venezuela.
I'm 28, and I've just watched your videos for the first time. Everything you say resonates so much with me. I somehow managed to develop this mindset on my own during my youth and I'm incredibly grateful for that. I found my passion early in life and invested most of my energy into it. Even when things go wrong in life, I still have my passion, which will always be my support and joy

Thank you for video! Robert Greene I love reading your books and formulated my opinion about the situation's that your book would help me!
I'm 21, and my goal is to constantly learn and change and never be complacent, it's a tough goal but I want to give it a shot. I'm very lucky to have been through emotional turmoils early on and grew from it, it made me realize that I wasn't at all a conscious human being and it made me see life in an entire different light. I'm also incredibly lucky for having found my passion during the covid lock down which is 3d art and movies, it's been 2 years since then and I'm been loving it. It was by no mean easy, I know I'm no where good enough right now but that only make me even more excited and that is awsome
It's June 21st and I will be turning 21 in seven days. I am really glad to have found such a great author. Thank you so much, for your great work, Robert.

I would like to deeply thank you Mr. Greene for being a master and having so many people who have learned from your writings.
I’m about to hit 30 and i hope it not too late. Being 29 has been a really productive year, socially , financially and education. I’ve finished a level 2 course in bookkeeping and going onto Level 3 in November and then hopefully level 4 to become an accountant

At any age we’re just playing our parts in the human comedy… Thanks for sharing your work Robert
I'm on the second track Robert spoke about. 31 right now and turning 32 this summer. Having a tough time figuring out hiw to pick one thing. Even at this age. I love working out, listening to music and enjoy spending time on the PC. I worked a few jobs in my 20s like exterior painting, working in a bar/barback, retail and fast food food when I was young. Was also a dj for a whil3 and have a diploma in Music Production + HR. Still having a tough time really sticking with something . I like djing and producing music , I also like working out and wouldnt mind owning my own gym or my own business somehow. Not too sure how to start that though. I do currently have a small business online that I make video game currency with and sell it but I would need to scale that way bigger.
A video for your 30s would be nice too Robert. People struggling to find that one thing in their 20s. I at times have had a hard time figuring out who I am and what I want to do. I enjoyed world of warcraft as a kid which led into becoming a great healer in the game... I just couldnt seem to stick with it though because I got afraid of commitment and gave it up. Was also young.. But still. Should have stuck with something.
I also can talk myself out of anything because I can see so many different sides of each thing making it difficult.
You're still in your early 30s, mate. You ain't old for at least 30 more years to come. Keep your head up!
You dont know how much you have opened my eyes, thanks to you and your books i started to put my life back together
Thank you Mr. Greene!
Hello Robert sir !
I'm 18yo boy who are pursuing engineering degree just to feel my parents proud and respect in society !
My parents triggerd me to think I need to complete engineering otherwise I will be not called as successful guy !
But what I figured out is I don't put my energy in to learn engineering.
Although I'm educating myself throughout books, world current affairs, what is happening in Technology industry, investing, spiritual development, meditation all that etc stuff.
All the energy I'm investing in my childhood hobby "dancing"
In just 1 year when I started to think that I'm built for it, the result was unexpected for me and also for those who seen. because I've doing in such way that 90% of dancing community lacking in that particular area that I'm following.
So it motivates me in day to day basis !
Is am in good direction?
Huge amount of respect and love from India sir 🇮🇳
I think following what makes you passionate and feel happy is amazing
dont pressure yourself guys just live life there is no right no wrong
Trueee
Thank you Robert! ❤
Thannnnnnnnk you so much Robert. I'm just 21 years old and I really appreciate your advices.
Mr Greene I would love a video about how your "Concise" books came to be; personally I'm a huge fan of them as I think they fit in great in the modern world where most of us aren't really "heavy" readers and istead of getting "convinced" with the extra stories you provide in the main editions, I just try to tie things to my personal experience & just trust in what you're saying as I've watched many of your interviews.
I think the books are wonderfully organised, probably the best format I've seen & it's a shame most other authors aren't doing similar things.
Only Robert Greene can do what Robert Greene does, which is what makes him so great.
Great to hear and see better quality video and audio
It’ll keep getting better.
Started uni. Few months back o really feel so lost and those two things i couldn't have described better myself i was experiencing exactly that it's like a dilemma THANK YOU SO MUCH !!
being content with your life is the ultimate key. as long as you have that in mind, you’ve successfully spent your youth with great knowledge
Robert, I wish I had heard these words a long time ago, and had I heard them, had the wisdom to take heed. I am one of the aimless multi-tracking fools that at this point have no wealth and no skillset. I am 36 and exhausted from the inertia of failure with no hope of ever finding a way to exist within this world, but finally coming to face that terrifying realization. If you are young and reading this, please hear Robert’s words - it can save your life
Your life ain't over yet you still can do many stuff and enjoy
Im in my 20s and im so grateful i learned a lot of things by reading a lot of books since 21. Things i want to work on before 30:
1. building multiple streams of income (multi-millionaire)
2. Learning 3 languages
3. write a book
4. build a successful business that will operate all over the world
5. Build a big following on social media.
I believe in pay now and play later. Have fun later in life.
I've learned more and earned more in my 30s but that's because I realised I was a loser in my 20s. We sometimes need an honest reality check.
Also you have to work for it as in HARD WORK either mentally or physically
The GOAT strikes again.
THANK YOU ROBERT GREENE
Thank you sir for such kind inspirational words which brings so much clarity to us. Thank you
My pleasure.
Appreciate Babbel sponsorship, not only is a good app, they also sponsor good content too.
Great advice, I agree we should have some capillary in life, having one ultimate goal, but allowing yourself to branch out and grow as a person with different experiences is a very healthy and competitive mindset at the same time.
Great advice. Thank you
I’m 21 and I’m so grateful for his books.
Which do you recommend the most? Also 21 and I wanna do this life shit right.
@@westlos365 I started with the 33 strategies of war
You must first win the war with yourself (read the self directed warfare laws)
I read 48 laws next and again study the laws that directed at yourself and couple for others.
After that read Mastery specifically about social intelligence. And apprenticeship.
I’ve also read the Bible since I was 15. I live by the Bible and apply the strategies/ laws framework but use the Bible as the meat and bones (the foundation)
Clarifying that five tracks is not necessarily the right way to do it really helps me. When people say “learn skills” part of me thinks I need to learn lots of different things, but the best thing to to do is to give each skill its time, and enough focus.
You are so right about that, it's hard to multitask after a certain point. I literally forget to attend to certain duties.
thank you for youre Great Ideas
Once you said that people who don't read history remain out of context and out of perspective of time. It affected me a lot. Now I feel that it was a very important statement made by you.
Artificial Intelligence has made the youth a bit puzzled about the future prospects. It’s great to have writers like you pushing us to keep exploring and not freak out about the future. Love your work !💜🦋
🤌🤌

It makes us older people (57) uncomfortable too. What I have learned through study and intuition about AI is that there is no nuance. It works well for some things, and horribly for others. It’s based on algorithms and coding that is done by mathematicians and techies. These people are often very high on the Autism Spectrum. They don’t relate or process information like 90% of people do. This leads to the lack of nuance and outright errors. We need to be cautious of AI, but there is plenty of opportunity for all of us.
@@ErikaLaGrande it has less to do with the people themselves and moreso how the type of ai that exists simply functions. the nuance is down to a part of human nature that is difficult to put into a computer. which is why we don't have artificially created consciousness' yet.
Thank you mate cheers
Thank you soo much Robert, I´m in my 20´s and planning to visit France for a year! Its great to see you in such a great shape! Take care, and greetings from Chile!
2:00 dude wtf you're like coming with something important for me there and dropping an ad in the middle of speech.
I would like to learn russia language because of the stereotypes that comes with..
Like you know learning a language is like learning a culture
French culture associate with élégance
Spanish associated with Flamenco and their sens of seduction
And other stuff..
I wasted my 20s with body dysmorphia and seeking validation, im turning 30 this year. The subject of the video made me feel sorry for myself. I realise i want to be a great idea presenter: share great art with the world in a way thats immersive. Could you do a video that helps lost people lilearn how to develop fascinations with different disciplines? Pretty pleaseee. Thank you ❤❤❤ love your videos so much
I think I’m on the right track man. Thankyou. I hope to fullfill my dreams and help others along the way, as that’s the dream after all
Thank you for the video
Would you mind talking about depression?
How does it affect our lives?
Why does it make us feel incapable (of working, living or socializing)?
What happened if we don't treat it or if its symptoms extend for a long time?
Does it have a definite cure?
What to do?
I love your content and the way it interacts with us directly and clearly.
Hello brother/sister
If you are dealing with drepressing feelings i recommend to truly believe that it is not real.
I know it sounds like something that doesn't make sense, and probably would remind you of Andrew Tate and all that sigma male thing, but I think we all agree that the mind is the most powerful thing we have.
Realise that there are people in this planet that can completely and utterly convince themselves that they are cats, that they can fly or that they live in a computer simulation. Imagine if you absolutely convinced yourself that depression isn't real and that it cannot affect you, that those feelings are there, but that they can vanish in a blink, curing your brain.
Imagine that you could competely convince yourself that you can achieve absolutely everything you put your mind to, and that your potential is limitless, that any kind of depressing feeling can't stop you and that anything of that is real.
We live in times where our mind is the only enemy we have, and I truly believe, that thinking that depression is a clinical disease that can only be treated with chemicals or therapy, and that you can't get over it by yourself is a limitant belief, so, why would you want to believe it then?
Why would you want to make your mind your enemy?
I understand that there are extreme cases like PTSD or other mental disorders caused by traumatic experiences, but usually people with depression think that their life is sad because they have depression; when it is the other way round:
You feel depressed because your life does not fulfill you.
We all have bad times, but remember that you are not alone, that there are people in this world that have absolutely anything and that would exchange lives with you in less than a second for what you have.
Look for meaning, be humble and appreciate the blessings you have been given, believe that you can achieve absolutely everything and that nobody is going to give it to you; realise that everything that happens to you is your absolute fault, and that depression isn't real. Be pissed off instead, and use it as unlimited motivation to achieve your goals.
This approach to life saved me, and I hope it can help you in any way, or maybe just reconsider some things.
Thanks for reading, and may God bless you.
Have a nice day.
@@jaimediez I don't really believe in pretending that the depression isn't there. But then again, the process of actively living for life rather than recoiling from depression because of depression for depression, isn't a terrible thought. It is just a bit more difficult when you are the one feeling the absolute lack in purpose towards socialising, living, working, growing, etc. when you can't find anything to make your time feel meaningful, it becomes very difficult to do anything. And then it compounds.
I'm a 28 year old lady! 27 and 28 have been the toughest years of my life so far. For a great part because I broke up with who used to be my best friend and boyfriend at 26 and it's taking me a long time to find my own path separate from his. I've done a bachelors degree in Polish language and culture but I'm considering to start a new bachelors in physiotherapy or psychology because I am interested in physical and mental health. I know that 28 is relatively old to start a new bachelors degree. But I'm not convinced that further specializing in Polish language and culture would make me happy.
Why did you choose Polish language?
If i'm being honest, i've been living with this mindset since i was a child but wasn't sure if it was the right path. Thank you for reassuring me and making me feel like i am on the right path!
thanks robert
Time is flying away at the speed of light. 20s, then 30s, then 40s....it just seems like yesterday, but decades pass in this way. ...so we have to make the best of each and every day and avoid procastination and laziness. ☺️
