"Ego is an old story." "Ego is an self-made concept." Ego is also called past self, or false self. You dont live in present moment, because everything you think about during the day, is actually about past. so your mind is constantly in the past.. tthoughts about what you should do (these thoughts are in some way attached to past. what celebrities did its about the past what you should buy, to fulfill other people expectations, its about past, your mind is constantly thinking in past. What you had fort breakjfest, you think in past. what you should buy for diner, youa re looking fora nswer sin the past. And people who practice mediation, live in present moment. they are criticised by peopl who constantly live in past. They are liked by people who live in present moment.
I’ve been off IG and Facebook since 2017…. I’ve never looked back! No comparisons, no wishing, no negativity…. I will never go back to it… it’s bad for our psyche…. I’m more self aware and I want to remain that way❤
@@MarcusX01 RUclips is fine If you use it wisely and for a limited time whereas those other apps like Insta and Facebook does not provide any value but RUclips does like this Channel.
''If you are depressed you are living in the past, if you are anxious you are living in the future. If you are in peace, you are living in the present'' (Lao Tzu) Don't waste your life, enjoy each moment of it as if it was for the 1st time.
I am 15, and I am glad that I realised this disease early in my life. Thank you for realising how useless things we were doing in our important life. Now, I pledge that I am going to cut down every source of distraction. Thank you again.
Hi I'm a also 15 year old kid like you and you are quite right I'm Also going to take time to appreciate what is in my life and cut out any media distraction also blessings to you and merry Christmas 🎄 ⛄ ❤️🙏🙌
@@manzithegamer2563 I feel the exact way and I'm also the same age. Life is too precious to be wasted on wanting things that you think will satisfy you but end up not being enough. We need to start living in every moment and appreciating the little things we already have. Merry Christmas, friend.
You'll never leave us i started watching your videos at 13 trying to live life to the fullest I'm 15 now achieved everything I've wanted I'm dying too of cancer I've less than two years i love you I'll live life to the fullest until I die bless you brother
Try magic mushrooms at least once before you die, its beautiful and magical and can even help with certain cancers, It can even help you with depression.
“There won’t be an another you” this hits me right in the face. I’m struggling with depression so much and have compared myself to others. Your video opened my eyes. Thank u so much
That is exactly how I’m feeling right now. I’ve been suffering mentally for years. I don’t remember the last time I was truly genuinely happy. I hope you find whatever it is you’re looking for.
@@lureog5134 I know how you feel! Talked about it yesterday when I was with my sister. I believe that better times are coming. Hope you’ll be feeling better
I quit my Twitter, Tik Tok, facebook and all the nonsense which was bothering me and right now I am confident and I can study without distractions. Thank you Prince EA. YOU ARE A LIFESAVER 💫
As a Muslim, I loved this video and was surprised that everything you mentioned can be found in the Islamic tradition also. I was so glad to see such a positive message of hope/reflection being put out there and that too in such a well presented manner. Stay safe brother.
as a christian, i see them as my brothers and sisters and love seeing someone step outside the "normal" narrative, i myself had fallen victim to. This man's videos helped concrete a change in my heart nearly a decade ago and his stories and lessons will be missed.
I’ve quit social media for 5 years now , it was a rollercoaster ride but I’m more appreciative of my time with my family , this made me cry because we really don’t realize the time left until we really stop and think it through . 😢
@@llamazing4326 RUclips is a better type of social media, it’s non addicting, it can be a huge benifit to your knowledge and health, it doesn’t destroy your mental health, social health, and attention span
I only use RUclips tbh. I also have Instagram but I don’t really use it. I only have it because of my favorite singers but I only take a look at the photos they posted once in a while. That’s it
Several times this year I’ve deactivated and activated, and repeated the same uncertainty of letting go of social media. Finally made the decision to fully let go of instagram and TikTok. I haven’t had Facebook for years. I shifted my focus on my education and of course still committing to my career. And living in my visions of success. Consistency is key for me. Fruits of the labor is what have gotten me to succeed, but also visualizing in the past has brought me to “my now,” the present. As i embrace every moment, I also embrace what my future holds.
Prince Ea has been and will continue to be an inspiration to the world. We appreciate and love you sir. He is one of the most creative visionary artists of our time. Didn’t want this video to end..
As I was watching this, Suddenly I started crying loudly siting alone in my room and this made me realise that what I am doing in this life and what I should actually do.
I'm so sorry for your loss, I am sure she was a great woman and will be so proud of you if she sees you live too your fullest. If there is anything I can say or do for you to make your day a bit better please do tell me and I will try to fulfill your wish, love from your non local Leah.
When my dad broke my phone because I was on it so much, man I was so so disappointed, but then weeks afterwards I felt like there's so much more in life than just social media and trends. Thank you for spreading this message for others
Honoring your path.♡ Trust me, at age 64, I believe you're absolutely on the right path to why we're here. I pray others can get there through your words and inspiration. 💗
It's really sad to see that one of the best motivated speaker is really going off the social media platform. You really inspirated me in every possible way. I hate to see you leave but everything must come to an end it's the reality Focus on how to be social. not on how to do social
It’s been over 2 years since I left social media. I have no regrets at all. I got sick of people gossiping, drama, negativity & people faking their lives & friendships and sharing everything that should be kept private or craving attention with provocative pictures & selfies. A number of things I realised: 1. People who added me as “Friends” didn’t really care about me. They were “So called Friends” it was just to increase their friends list. 2. When people were going through their hardest times of anxiety, trauma and upset, I went out of my way & made an effort by helping & supporting them. But when I was going through my hardest times, including anxiety, trauma and stress. The people who I helped & supported never reached out to me to help or supported me even when I struggled. Everything has become one sided. 3. Certain posts or videos get blown out of proportion or completely taken out of context even if it’s nothing negative. 4. People lie about the amount of friends they REALLY have. Who in the REAL world has 100s or 1000s of friends WHO?? 5. Communication is very one sided. The same person had to make the first move to start a conversation as the other person doesn’t make an effort themselves or just can’t be bothered. 6. People lie about their lives, they only show the positive side of theirs lives which doesn’t show the REAL truth about the person. You can’t tell and don’t see if someone is REALLY depressed, upset, isolated, lonely, feeling suicidal or what’s actually going on in their actual lives. Even if people post how they really feel, people don’t always care or not interested. 7. It makes people fake and insecure. It’s not just school kids or teenagers in schools, colleges, universities or workplaces doing it, but grown adults as well are also being fake & insecure, especially managers. 8. People compare themselves to others just to get loads of “Likes” & comments. 9. Social media has increased loneliness, isolation, anxiety and depression which can be severe. 10. Due to social media and the increase in technology, it’s causing destruction & destroying peoples lives in the sense of their is no sense of unity, community, love and nobody wants to help each other. If they see someone doing something constructive and productive and they’re doing well in a community or society, people will laugh at them in an act of ignorance, and cannot wait for them to fall down. Social media is dividing people, not bringing people together. 11. Having a proper conversation or being real is considered not normal and people think it’s creepy. People don’t like having real conversations. 12. It’s made people to be narcissists, entitlement, ignorant, prejudice and bullies. 13. People can say things or make comments that are abusive, racist, sexist, ignorant, prejudice, misogynist, homophobia, xenophobia, discrimination openly online, rather than to your face. 14. I have seen Boys & Girls take provocative, selfies / pictures just to get attention from so called friends / strangers, sometimes in a negative way, for example, woman having their boobs / chests hanging out, body image, men & women showing off muscles, six pack & more. 15. With social media & the young generation with regards to friendships, people feel that if they add someone as friend request and they accept it, or meet someone & they click with them they automatically think that’s “friends for life” people need to realise that’s not how friendship REALLY works. Friendships are & should always be a 2-way street. Real friendships would make the effort to support & be there for each other through the good times, fun times, hard times, sad times, upsetting times & more. Communication & making an effort should be equal on both sides. Not the same person who always makes first contact. The other person should also make an effort too. We need to ALL learn the skill set of when we suffer from stress, anxiety, trauma, facing problems & more, that we should reach out to our friends, family or professionals for help & support, NOT turn to social media. 16. Our young generation has grown up addicted. They have been addicted to mobile phones, alcohol, drugs, social media & more at a young age It’s very sad. We are seeing the negative impact of what social media is doing, but we are not really reacting to it. I never had TikTok, Twitter or Instagram. Glad I didn’t sign up to any of them. Facebook was the only social media platform I had and it was recommended to me back when I was in my teens. I only use RUclips as I can look at interesting things like cooking recipes and motivation videos and music videos of festivals & concerts and more fun stuff. I enjoy going out in nature walks, bowling listening to music and learning new hobbies and watching movies. Since leaving it’s been the best decision of my life. I enjoy life more, I can now enjoy doing the things I do or want to try without being judged or told what to do without being made to feel guilty. I feel more happier and a massive weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I think if social media disappeared forever, I can guarantee people will spend REAL quality time with friends and family. People will know who their REAL friends are and that they will do things together and have a good time doing it. I also feel that people will have proper conversations and listen and engage. I do feel sorry for our young generation. The young generation is lost. There is so much talent and ideas in young people and they need to show that in a positive & constructive way. We can make change for the future. The young generation needs real positive role models to look up to, for them to succeed in life & beyond.
People who have watched this video till end including me....we all knew whatever he said but....we were waiting for someone to embrace ourselves to help bring the best version of ourselves and that's where this guy steps in...
Years ago, when I was 19 years old I was working at a 9 to 5 job and I was already succesfull. I felt dead inside tho. I watched one of his videos and that inspired me to change the direction of my life. I was working for someone else dream until his video changed my life. I decided to work on my dreams. Today Im 30 years old and I had my ups and down, success for me is feeling proud of your project and wanting to share it and talk about it. In any area... love life, career, spirituality. I'm the most authentic version of myself. I dont follow social media trends and I persue my music career. I used to have my own house and a lot of money but I was empity inside. Today I might have less money but I feel much happier and fullfield. Im not saying thats the truth but thats how I feel. Im glad for having at all and nothing when I was 19 years old. I already realised that was not the life I want to live. Thanks for his video.
I’m 20 years old and the only social media I’ve ever had is RUclips. I stayed away from everything else cause I didn’t want my beliefs and views on the world to be shaped by what I would describe as the toxicity of social media. RUclips is my alternative to cable TV, it’s where I go to see some entertainment and get some news. But other than that, I’ve avoided everything else. Those who need to reach me or those that I want to stay in touch with have my phone number and are able to text and call me when they want to chat or meet up.
Embrace the freedom don't give in it'll sink you like quick sand then control your emotions and affect your self-esteem. Theres wayy more to life than it
Good. Now the ultimate goal would be to also quit RUclips. See, I'm an ex gambler (clean for 25 years). It's an addiction, just like social media. I've had to give up ALL forms of gambling right down to not pitching a penny; not ever buying a 50/50, and not buying a lottery ticket = NOTHING!! When it comes to social media, there is no room for ANY type of social media, and that includes RUclips. Take it from an old, but recovered, ex gambler. Hopefully, there are also 12-step programs to rid oneself of ALL social media. Good luck!!
this video is one of the best eye opening videos I've ever watched, as someone who has struggled with ego issues and always wanting to be the best I can at everything I do in life, I realized there will always be someone better at something and learning to come to terms with the fact I am not perfect and will never be enough for myself is the best way for me to grow as a person. I always thought making progress in the world's eyes or the people around me would give me a sense of fulfillment, but I realized this mentality just leaves me constantly wanting more from myself and never being content, which means I have missed the entire point of our very limited existence.
I quit social media 2 months ago and I must say once you’re off of it completely, you realize how deeply trapped you were in a game of longing for attention that never ends… I can’t wait to not take photos just to share moments with the world and embrace moments for what they are… My new journey has just begun and I already feel free…😊 happy and excited for this new chapter 🫡🙏🏽
Man thank you for saying that "life is not to live worthy but fully" because EVERYONE I know think and say the opposite of what you said.I always thought that we should live our lives fully and NOT to have prove worthy to ANYONE!! I hope that people understand the message you gave us.
I am crying. This is the most beautiful video I have ever seen. It is so deep and so touching. I have a 20-year-old daughter who was determined to go to Europe for 6 weeks. She is a college student. I could not understand why she would want to go somewhere so far away where she does not know a soul. But she is brave and she loves life and she loves people and she is having the most incredible time of her life. She is meeting and making so many friends. She is living in the moment instead of sitting in a room scrolling through Instagram. Now I get it, and I now have so much pride and respect for her.
I literally cried, listening to these really opened my eyes and it touched my heart to. Thank you Prince Ea, you are indeed a true blessing for God. I believe his sent this message to us through you🙏🏾❤️
Nah i dont think god sends us messages through someone BUT, he already sent us a message through Bible. In fact, in future God will solve all human's problems, such as death, diseases and many other things that makes us sad.. I highly reccomend you to start studying Bible and dont waste time untill it will be too late..
Prince EA. Learn about the prophecy about the emergence of the Church of Christ in the far east. That will save you. Enter the Iglesia Ni Cristo to find out... YOU.
I'm glad i quit social media when i did which happened in june. im 27 and still have a life to live. I am dying a little bit each day and I'd rather spend my time doing meaningful things rather than on social media. I have started to love life again and I am so grateful for slowly regaining my self esteem.
Amen🙏🙌 I quit social media in 2017 and rarely go on to check messages.. having it off my phone makes a massive difference. I seek God and his truth daily
I decided to leave social media last month , which was on my 21st birthday. It's been really amazing, I now understand life in a more sincere and better way .
I just turned 31 last month and decided to seriously ditch social media. I just unfriended a lot of people on there and deactivated the profile. I didn’t delete it because I have a lot of pictures on there… but other then that …screw Facebook
This video arrived at the perfect moment in my life. I love thinking, analysing, pivoting, or pushing forward on a specific direction. And you just stopped me, in my entire internal process, and noise. Last time I watched one of your videos was maybe... 5 years ago, and BOUM! Here you are, falling into my internal noise and analyses. I'm very grateful for your existence, and for the time and dedication you put in this video. Thank you very much, from the bottom and top, of my heart.
2025 is coming but this vid is still my favorite vid on youtube, rewatching this everytime I forgot what truly matters in this life. just like the Book of Ecclesiastes has taught….
Checked out the description of this video! He’s explaining why he stopped posting so long, and how he’s entering it now with a different perspective and intention for his audience❤️ love this and I’m definitely feeling the same way! 💯🙌🏾 looking forward to what you have to say Prince✨
I’m a muslim and whatever brother said is so relevant with teaches of Islam. How it guides us to pursue a meaningful life. Great work brother. May Allah bless you!
Indeed! What caught me was when he mentioned that in order for you to be happy you have to think about death 5 times a day, when as muslims we pray five times a day. And i'm sure most muslims think of death whenever they pray. Such a coincidence.
I guess Prince Ea Needs ISLAM , Let's call on Allah For help and Call on People from Dawah community to have a Conversation or Podcast with Prince Ea Great example of this is Shayk Uthman Bin Farooq
"The quality of your life is determined by the quality of your questions," ever since I heard Tony Robbins say that a few years ago, I've been impacted by it since. Gave me chills to see you quote what I've learned and have been preaching also
I’m a young teenager right now and I’ve always wanted to play football professionally. This was the choice I feel was destined for me because I’m big and have determination. However when he asked if it was and Ego goal or a spiritual goal. This man has inspired me to become a priest and spread the gospel to my neighbors. Thank you brother
Just deleted TikTok off of my phone. I didn't realize how blind I was- And I missed out on so many opportunities. Thank you for making me self aware. Thank you for inspiring me. Thank you for opening my eyes! Thank you!!
Dear Prince EA, This is the best speech you made in 2022. The moment that I first heard what you said in this video, I thought to myself, this is going to be a great video, and at the end of the video, I found myself crying tears of happiness inside, so please, please, I beg of you if you have any human decency, never stop making videos like this one. By making videos such as this one, you are changing the lives of millions of people so please never stop being you❤. You honestly deserve to win an award just for this speech. Anyone that is still here, I hope, will find an unlimited amount of success and happiness in all of their future endeavors✨✨😇😇❤❤
i cried too...but he isn't leave social media, even if he was..he taught us in one of his video..we must leave someone go on coz of they aren't belong us ut tomorrow, its include their inside peace...😭😭😭🌛
When he mentioned that in the next 10 minutes of watching this video and over 1,200 people will be dead around the world, that broke my heart not even knowing these people, but wanting to know them until their last breath, we really take seeing people, and strangers foot granted, yet we never know what their going through or when their going to die, and that’s just really sad-
i’ve never had tiktok, or most social medias. my only socials are yt, discord, pinterest, and reading sites. i am 17 and not once have i ever obsessed over how i look. i won’t deny that i have compared myself to others, but never longer than a few seconds. i was never forced to neglect social medias. it is a choice of my own because they never interested me. but when i think about other people and their problems as a result of social media- yeah. not once have i ever regretted the choice to stay away from it.
I am 17 aswell. Most of my short life, I didn't have social media, but some people influenced me to download tiktok and instagram in 2022, before that I hated them and wanted to stay away, but somehow people made me feel I'm missing out on something, so I downloaded them in '22, but honestly now I regret it, It just made me feel bad, made me feel I am not enough and behind of people who are more sucessful than me. I used tiktok over 10 hours per month and I think thats a lot of wasted time.
@@symon6686 same dude ,in 21' my friends pressure me to download it so they can share vids with me and I did after like 6 months I uninstall it and its been like a year I gave up on that and I really proud of my self .
I dreamed about being rich and having more vehicles, houses, and other stuff. But truly, I don't need all of them. If I had enough to live HAPPILY, that's my true desire.
The only influencer I will never unsubscribe in my lifetime. 🖤 Even you rarely post in socmed, your words from your recent videos and old clips still remains in my memory. Thank you for existing and be an inspiration to us. You really are the only one Prince EA and their is no other you in this timeline.
My goal of success is to build a website and sell my art, but fear holds me back. The only social i use is facebook, but it even to me is growing boring..i have already turned off notifications quite sometime ago. This video is a reminder, to not forget who I am, to be myself. I am in tears. Thank you for this Prince EA. It is exactly what I needed to hear. ❤
And I was make my page facebook, It was begined 17.april. 2017 and It was quit 1. june. 2021. PRVA, B92 and all medias are always here now, but we're been grown up by a biggest special things always!!! (1938-2021)👍🙂❤
Prince EA’s advice is great but you should still follow your dream. This life has many challenges for us all even Prince ea will still have his own challenges, it’s all a part of growing and learning new things about yourself and others.
You can just live once in your life, death is approaching us even though we don't realize. But when we are on our deathbed, we will soon realize that we didn't truly, genuinely LIVE ONCE. Go ahead and pursue your dreams, take every opportunity to live happily instead of wealthily. What an inspiring video!
I remember the day I quit the internet for a whole day. INSTANTLY I felt like like I had more time on my hands to do what I really wanted to do, and not waste time on the internet.
This presentation was inspiring on so many levels for me. I know that it wasn't a coincidence that it crossed my path today. I'm delighted that you have been JOURNEYING within yourself and finding precious gems and treasures along the way to share with the world Prince EA! May your personal evolution continue to inspire people around the world for many years to come. May peace, wellness, and love be with you.
As a muslim, i think on death a lot as our constant remembrance and 5 daily prayers keep us constantly aware. And you’re very right, it gives u peace, awareness, enlightenment, humbleness and definitely distance from being sucked in by anything and everything. Living in God consciousness and freedom from our own ego. We are but travellers on this earth 🥰🤲🏼🙏🏼❤️
This man become my guru from now. This words are true a f. It's been more than 5 yrs I'm going through severe depressed. And I'm inside my house since 2020 I've not even step outside of my house. This pain is unbearable but i don't want to die like this I want to write, I want to read all books and want to spread love and positivity through my writhing & RUclips videos. I'm so thankful to universe 🌌 who purposefully suggested me this video. Thankuu so soo muchhh. I'll work on myself bc I want to tell my story to this beautiful world.
I always wonder why do people often act & behave as if they are here forever. Its so simple to understand yet so difficult to explain to some. When you subconciosly realize that you are here for a while, you start living, spending time with your family, doing what you love & being kind. Its a short life guys. Chase dreams, Chase peace.
I'm from the beautiful country in Africa called Gabon so I am Gabonese. I learned my English through your video and I grew and awoke with your records and I want this to continue for many many years again. Thanks so much for all you've done in my life
I'm going to be 42 this year and the only thing I'm going to say is don't waste your time and enjoy the people and family that you love in your life as it isn't going to be forever. All the best for the future.
Ah I am excited to see what you'll do in the future! I love a lot of your content and I even share some of your videos with others and even quote one of your spoken word pieces too. And for everyone freaking out about the fact that he is "Quiting", read the description of the video. He isn't quitting. He's still planning to upload content. He's just going to upload it to be more authentic to himself now at least from what I understand. He just didn't upload for a while because he wanted to take a step back and now he's coming back with A New perspective. That's all. So no need to worry.
We will follow your website- agreed on social media dividing us, putting salt into wounds trying to heal and giving way too much air time to those on all sides that want to keep sides divided. Bless you Sir- You are so courageous on a given day that we should be ashamed we don’t do more and better ourselves.
I’m 7 days without TikTok and Instagram, and I must say, you can do so much in a day and enjoy the moment. Appreciate the fact that GOD gave you another day. People nowadays wake up and go straight to TikTok, instead of waking up and saying good morning to your parents.
This has to be beyond the caliber of some of the great speeches of the past. You seriously are doing Gods work brother. I detox and quit social media weeks at a time, slowly to come back to it..and notice how the pull and negativity starts to seep in back to the mind. It's sneaky at first, but insidious nonetheless. Can't express how grateful I am for your work man. This is the first of your videos I've ever commented on, moved me to tears of Joy
This video release was perfectly timed for me. Today I complete my internship, my last requirement to graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science. I now move on to my next phase of life where I'll have more income than ever before. This is a good time to reflect and think about what is truly valuable in life.
"I thank you and I thank myself" I can't say how much I appreciate your words with a thank you. Just by moving a little piece, by saying the right words at the right time, you can change everything. And that is something you have accomplished for me and thousands of others. May your will never be forgotten.
I quit Facebook and tiktok and I feel like stress it literally gone since I watch this channel I know my success didn't come from anyone it come from my heart.. thank you for make us wake up from fake dream that social make...
As a Muslim, This video touches my heart. In our religion,we do believe in the afterlife and God will ask us about our lives and what did we do with it . This is so true that we have to live fully in this life and social media is just a way to communicate not a place to live. Yes, we are not here to gain fame or anything, each one of us have a purpose ,God look at our hearts and you really described life from Islam's perspective. Thank you so much,I wish everyone find their happiness and live fully each moment not just existing ❤
As a Jew as well I think this is one of those beautiful things that speaks to every person and religion, because I think that every religion recognizes the truth of this principle. It's pretty crazy that the core of every religion is so similar and so true. Prince Ea articulated it so perfectly.
Prince ea, I can’t even explain how grateful I am for this video you’ve made. It has opened many eyes, myself included on what we can truly become. Thank you so so much, this video will change lives and will change mine for the better. Love you man.
That line where you ask what success mean to us, pause the video and appreciate where we're really made me feel relaxed and for a moment I let go of the anxious questions which has been eating me away everyday. Really cleared my mind!
“Hide in their heart, it’s the last place they’ll look” WOW! I needed to hear that. We really need to be in touch with our hearts and be our true selves.
We've missed you. Thankyou for yet another masterpiece. It's been around 5 months I've quit social media and it's been a great time just hearing people I wish to follow through youtube. You've made a great impact on my life all through my teen years and I'll forever be grateful for the wisdom you've given me. Best wishes for your future. ❤️
I'm so grateful to being reminded about the real purpose of life. We are all trapped in this infinite loop of striving for something material and completely neglecting the real purpose of our lives. At the end of our lives, none of that is going to matter.
Yes! The 90s and early 2000s were the best! Social media wasnt really as big ad it is now, life was so much more simple, we were more present with friends and family, & life was more precious
I'm thankful that there's a man who opened our eyes. The man who inspired millions of people. The one who needed by the world. The same man who also wake me up from my dull view of life to becoming more active, present, and the desire explore new things. Thank you, Prince Ea.
I cried this was such a beautiful message. I remember I found you a while ago Prince. And I always enjoyed your speeches and related to you. Life would be so great if everyone thought this way. I’m 18 and I’m still figuring things out and my thoughts always come about like this. People need to wake up and really understand the meaning of life. What life is. We must define life. But comparing, jealousy, hatred, negativity, social media all get in the way. I will continue to focus and be on my own lane. Although I still have trouble with the social media part, I’ve been trying my best to deactivate from the things that drain my energy on there. If everyones feed was filled with things like this , man life will be great and many people would be humbled. This is my own life story and it’s my job to act. I wish everyone luck while going through their own life journey. Remember to always humble yourself. Thank you prince.
To me a successful life is filled with happiness and adventure after I found this guy, I realized that we should not be spending our lives looking through social media because like you said in our death beds we are going to think back to these old times and wish we did it differently so help yourself out "It won't be easy, but you have to try." I hope this message helps anyone who reads it. - Calvin

Quitting social media was by FAR the best thing I've ever done for both my mental and physical health. 100% recommend it!

"Ego is an old story."
"Ego is an self-made concept."
Ego is also called past self, or false self.
You dont live in present moment, because everything you think about during the day, is actually about past.
so your mind is constantly in the past..
tthoughts about what you should do (these thoughts are in some way attached to past.
what celebrities did
its about the past
what you should buy, to fulfill other people expectations,
its about past, your mind is constantly thinking in past.

Great video.
No one, at the end of their life, ever thinks, “I wish I spent more time on social media.”
Wow
Yep even now I wish I could use it less
Yes!!!🙏🏾
This really amazing prince,I can't get enough of this ❤
So true
I’ve been off IG and Facebook since 2017…. I’ve never looked back! No comparisons, no wishing, no negativity…. I will never go back to it… it’s bad for our psyche…. I’m more self aware and I want to remain that way❤
Well done, thats the smartest decision you've ever made
Same here
Now it’s time for RUclips which is the hardest part
Me too sweety. I still use RUclips though because I can choose what to watch.
@@MarcusX01 RUclips is fine If you use it wisely and for a limited time whereas those other apps like Insta and Facebook does not provide any value but RUclips does like this Channel.

Hi I'm a also 15 year old kid like you and you are quite right I'm Also going to take time to appreciate what is in my life and cut out any media distraction also blessings to you and merry Christmas 🎄 ⛄ ❤️🙏🙌
@@manzithegamer2563 I feel the exact way and I'm also the same age. Life is too precious to be wasted on wanting things that you think will satisfy you but end up not being enough. We need to start living in every moment and appreciating the little things we already have. Merry Christmas, friend.
Very lucky

As a Muslim, I loved this video and was surprised that everything you mentioned can be found in the Islamic tradition also. I was so glad to see such a positive message of hope/reflection being put out there and that too in such a well presented manner. Stay safe brother.
I was just thinking the same and found this comment 🙌
as a christian, i see them as my brothers and sisters and love seeing someone step outside the "normal" narrative, i myself had fallen victim to.
This man's videos helped concrete a change in my heart nearly a decade ago and his stories and lessons will be missed.

But your on RUclips
@@llamazing4326 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@llamazing4326 RUclips is a better type of social media, it’s non addicting, it can be a huge benifit to your knowledge and health, it doesn’t destroy your mental health, social health, and attention span
@@RobblestoneNetwork not true lmao it has RUclips shorts which is the same as TikTok. it is addicting
I only use RUclips tbh. I also have Instagram but I don’t really use it. I only have it because of my favorite singers but I only take a look at the photos they posted once in a while. That’s it
Several times this year I’ve deactivated and activated, and repeated the same uncertainty of letting go of social media. Finally made the decision to fully let go of instagram and TikTok. I haven’t had Facebook for years.
I shifted my focus on my education and of course still committing to my career. And living in my visions of success.
Consistency is key for me. Fruits of the labor is what have gotten me to succeed, but also visualizing in the past has brought me to “my now,” the present. As i embrace every moment, I also embrace what my future holds.
I love this for you. I plan to be on it a lot less
I deleted my social media today! Best decision
Prince Ea has been and will continue to be an inspiration to the world. We appreciate and love you sir. He is one of the most creative visionary artists of our time. Didn’t want this video to end..

👍
It’s been over 2 years since I left social media. I have no regrets at all.
I got sick of people gossiping, drama, negativity & people faking their lives & friendships and sharing everything that should be kept private or craving attention with provocative pictures & selfies.
A number of things I realised:
1. People who added me as “Friends” didn’t really care about me. They were “So called Friends” it was just to increase their friends list.
2. When people were going through their hardest times of anxiety, trauma and upset, I went out of my way & made an effort by helping & supporting them. But when I was going through my hardest times, including anxiety, trauma and stress. The people who I helped & supported never reached out to me to help or supported me even when I struggled. Everything has become one sided.
3. Certain posts or videos get blown out of proportion or completely taken out of context even if it’s nothing negative.
4. People lie about the amount of friends they REALLY have. Who in the REAL world has 100s or 1000s of friends WHO??
5. Communication is very one sided. The same person had to make the first move to start a conversation as the other person doesn’t make an effort themselves or just can’t be bothered.
6. People lie about their lives, they only show the positive side of theirs lives which doesn’t show the REAL truth about the person. You can’t tell and don’t see if someone is REALLY depressed, upset, isolated, lonely, feeling suicidal or what’s actually going on in their actual lives. Even if people post how they really feel, people don’t always care or not interested.
7. It makes people fake and insecure. It’s not just school kids or teenagers in schools, colleges, universities or workplaces doing it, but grown adults as well are also being fake & insecure, especially managers.
8. People compare themselves to others just to get loads of “Likes” & comments.
9. Social media has increased loneliness, isolation, anxiety and depression which can be severe.
10. Due to social media and the increase in technology, it’s causing destruction & destroying peoples lives in the sense of their is no sense of unity, community, love and nobody wants to help each other. If they see someone doing something constructive and productive and they’re doing well in a community or society, people will laugh at them in an act of ignorance, and cannot wait for them to fall down. Social media is dividing people, not bringing people together.
11. Having a proper conversation or being real is considered not normal and people think it’s creepy. People don’t like having real conversations.
12. It’s made people to be narcissists, entitlement, ignorant, prejudice and bullies.
13. People can say things or make comments that are abusive, racist, sexist, ignorant, prejudice, misogynist, homophobia, xenophobia, discrimination openly online, rather than to your face.
14. I have seen Boys & Girls take provocative, selfies / pictures just to get attention from so called friends / strangers, sometimes in a negative way, for example, woman having their boobs / chests hanging out, body image, men & women showing off muscles, six pack & more.
15. With social media & the young generation with regards to friendships, people feel that if they add someone as friend request and they accept it, or meet someone & they click with them they automatically think that’s “friends for life” people need to realise that’s not how friendship REALLY works.
Friendships are & should always be a 2-way street. Real friendships would make the effort to support & be there for each other through the good times, fun times, hard times, sad times, upsetting times & more. Communication & making an effort should be equal on both sides. Not the same person who always makes first contact. The other person should also make an effort too.
We need to ALL learn the skill set of when we suffer from stress, anxiety, trauma, facing problems & more, that we should reach out to our friends, family or professionals for help & support, NOT turn to social media.
16. Our young generation has grown up addicted. They have been addicted to mobile phones, alcohol, drugs, social media & more at a young age It’s very sad.
We are seeing the negative impact of what social media is doing, but we are not really reacting to it.
I never had TikTok, Twitter or Instagram. Glad I didn’t sign up to any of them. Facebook was the only social media platform I had and it was recommended to me back when I was in my teens.
I only use RUclips as I can look at interesting things like cooking recipes and motivation videos and music videos of festivals & concerts and more fun stuff.
I enjoy going out in nature walks, bowling listening to music and learning new hobbies and watching movies.
Since leaving it’s been the best decision of my life. I enjoy life more, I can now enjoy doing the things I do or want to try without being judged or told what to do without being made to feel guilty.
I feel more happier and a massive weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
I think if social media disappeared forever, I can guarantee people will spend REAL quality time with friends and family. People will know who their REAL friends are and that they will do things together and have a good time doing it. I also feel that people will have proper conversations and listen and engage.
I do feel sorry for our young generation. The young generation is lost. There is so much talent and ideas in young people and they need to show that in a positive & constructive way. We can make change for the future. The young generation needs real positive role models to look up to, for them to succeed in life & beyond.

I quit social media 4 days ago and now I'm make sure I will never go to that place again ❣️❣️
PRINCE EA PLZ DONT LEAVE US WITHOUT ANY UPLOADS! YOUR THE REASON WHY SOME OF US MANAGED TO FIND SOMETHING WE NEED!
Read the description, he isn't leaving this platform.
Ik lol
Dude chill out. If he needs a break, let him have one. If he needs to quit, let him.
He has led us on the path. We must go ourselves
@@RandomGamer- He's had a break, people don't want him to leave because he helped them🤷♂️
People who have watched this video till end including me....we all knew whatever he said but....we were waiting for someone to embrace ourselves to help bring the best version of ourselves and that's where this guy steps in...
Years ago, when I was 19 years old I was working at a 9 to 5 job and I was already succesfull. I felt dead inside tho. I watched one of his videos and that inspired me to change the direction of my life. I was working for someone else dream until his video changed my life. I decided to work on my dreams. Today Im 30 years old and I had my ups and down, success for me is feeling proud of your project and wanting to share it and talk about it. In any area... love life, career, spirituality. I'm the most authentic version of myself. I dont follow social media trends and I persue my music career. I used to have my own house and a lot of money but I was empity inside. Today I might have less money but I feel much happier and fullfield. Im not saying thats the truth but thats how I feel. Im glad for having at all and nothing when I was 19 years old. I already realised that was not the life I want to live. Thanks for his video.
God is always providing. You are wise sista girl💗
Thats good for you, dont use social media too often, because your life is limited
I’m 20 years old and the only social media I’ve ever had is RUclips. I stayed away from everything else cause I didn’t want my beliefs and views on the world to be shaped by what I would describe as the toxicity of social media. RUclips is my alternative to cable TV, it’s where I go to see some entertainment and get some news. But other than that, I’ve avoided everything else. Those who need to reach me or those that I want to stay in touch with have my phone number and are able to text and call me when they want to chat or meet up.
Embrace the freedom don't give in it'll sink you like quick sand then control your emotions and affect your self-esteem. Theres wayy more to life than it
Good. Now the ultimate goal would be to also quit RUclips. See, I'm an ex gambler (clean for 25 years). It's an addiction, just like social media. I've had to give up ALL forms of gambling right down to not pitching a penny; not ever buying a 50/50, and not buying a lottery ticket = NOTHING!! When it comes to social media, there is no room for ANY type of social media, and that includes RUclips. Take it from an old, but recovered, ex gambler. Hopefully, there are also 12-step programs to rid oneself of ALL social media. Good luck!!
this video is one of the best eye opening videos I've ever watched, as someone who has struggled with ego issues and always wanting to be the best I can at everything I do in life, I realized there will always be someone better at something and learning to come to terms with the fact I am not perfect and will never be enough for myself is the best way for me to grow as a person. I always thought making progress in the world's eyes or the people around me would give me a sense of fulfillment, but I realized this mentality just leaves me constantly wanting more from myself and never being content, which means I have missed the entire point of our very limited existence.
I quit social media 2 months ago and I must say once you’re off of it completely, you realize how deeply trapped you were in a game of longing for attention that never ends…
I can’t wait to not take photos just to share moments with the world and embrace moments for what they are…
My new journey has just begun and I already feel free…😊 happy and excited for this new chapter 🫡🙏🏽
Man thank you for saying that "life is not to live worthy but fully" because EVERYONE I know think and say the opposite of what you said.I always thought that we should live our lives fully and NOT to have prove worthy to ANYONE!! I hope that people understand the message you gave us.
I often say to others - You are not born for a reason, only to create one. I think this fits in with the theme of this video
I am crying. This is the most beautiful video I have ever seen. It is so deep and so touching. I have a 20-year-old daughter who was determined to go to Europe for 6 weeks. She is a college student. I could not understand why she would want to go somewhere so far away where she does not know a soul. But she is brave and she loves life and she loves people and she is having the most incredible time of her life. She is meeting and making so many friends. She is living in the moment instead of sitting in a room scrolling through Instagram. Now I get it, and I now have so much pride and respect for her.
I literally cried, listening to these really opened my eyes and it touched my heart to. Thank you Prince Ea, you are indeed a true blessing for God. I believe his sent this message to us through you🙏🏾❤️
Nah i dont think god sends us messages through someone BUT, he already sent us a message through Bible. In fact, in future God will solve all human's problems, such as death, diseases and many other things that makes us sad.. I highly reccomend you to start studying Bible and dont waste time untill it will be too late..

It's been really amazing, I now understand life in a more sincere and better way .
I just turned 31 last month and decided to seriously ditch social media. I just unfriended a lot of people on there and deactivated the profile. I didn’t delete it because I have a lot of pictures on there… but other then that …screw Facebook
This video arrived at the perfect moment in my life. I love thinking, analysing, pivoting, or pushing forward on a specific direction. And you just stopped me, in my entire internal process, and noise.

Indeed! What caught me was when he mentioned that in order for you to be happy you have to think about death 5 times a day, when as muslims we pray five times a day. And i'm sure most muslims think of death whenever they pray. Such a coincidence.
Mashallah!

"The quality of your life is determined by the quality of your questions," ever since I heard Tony Robbins say that a few years ago, I've been impacted by it since. Gave me chills to see you quote what I've learned and have been preaching also

When he mentioned that in the next 10 minutes of watching this video and over 1,200 people will be dead around the world, that broke my heart not even knowing these people, but wanting to know them until their last breath, we really take seeing people, and strangers foot granted, yet we never know what their going through or when their going to die, and that’s just really sad-
i’ve never had tiktok, or most social medias. my only socials are yt, discord, pinterest, and reading sites.
i am 17 and not once have i ever obsessed over how i look. i won’t deny that i have compared myself to others, but never longer than a few seconds.
i was never forced to neglect social medias. it is a choice of my own because they never interested me.
but when i think about other people and their problems as a result of social media-
yeah. not once have i ever regretted the choice to stay away from it.
I am 17 aswell. Most of my short life, I didn't have social media, but some people influenced me to download tiktok and instagram in 2022, before that I hated them and wanted to stay away, but somehow people made me feel I'm missing out on something, so I downloaded them in '22, but honestly now I regret it, It just made me feel bad, made me feel I am not enough and behind of people who are more sucessful than me. I used tiktok over 10 hours per month and I think thats a lot of wasted time.
Thats awesome

The only influencer I will never unsubscribe in my lifetime. 🖤 Even you rarely post in socmed, your words from your recent videos and old clips still remains in my memory. Thank you for existing and be an inspiration to us. You really are the only one Prince EA and their is no other you in this timeline.
My goal of success is to build a website and sell my art, but fear holds me back. The only social i use is facebook, but it even to me is growing boring..i have already turned off notifications quite sometime ago. This video is a reminder, to not forget who I am, to be myself. I am in tears. Thank you for this Prince EA. It is exactly what I needed to hear. ❤
My fellow artist, you got this :)
And I was make my page facebook, It was begined 17.april. 2017 and It was quit 1. june. 2021.
PRVA, B92 and all medias are always here now, but we're been grown up by a biggest special things always!!! (1938-2021)👍🙂❤
Social media can be a great way to share and sell your art I hope you achieve your goals !
Prince EA’s advice is great but you should still follow your dream. This life has many challenges for us all even Prince ea will still have his own challenges, it’s all a part of growing and learning new things about yourself and others.
That nice, I can help you with your website, am a website Developer
You can just live once in your life, death is approaching us even though we don't realize. But when we are on our deathbed, we will soon realize that we didn't truly, genuinely LIVE ONCE. Go ahead and pursue your dreams, take every opportunity to live happily instead of wealthily. What an inspiring video!
As a twelve year old, thank you. I’m glad I am young enough to turn my life around.
I remember the day I quit the internet for a whole day. INSTANTLY I felt like like I had more time on my hands to do what I really wanted to do, and not waste time on the internet.
This presentation was inspiring on so many levels for me. I know that it wasn't a coincidence that it crossed my path today. I'm delighted that you have been JOURNEYING within yourself and finding precious gems and treasures along the way to share with the world Prince EA! May your personal evolution continue to inspire people around the world for many years to come. May peace, wellness, and love be with you.
As a muslim, i think on death a lot as our constant remembrance and 5 daily prayers keep us constantly aware. And you’re very right, it gives u peace, awareness, enlightenment, humbleness and definitely distance from being sucked in by anything and everything. Living in God consciousness and freedom from our own ego. We are but travellers on this earth 🥰🤲🏼🙏🏼❤️

This man become my guru from now. This words are true a f. It's been more than 5 yrs I'm going through severe depressed. And I'm inside my house since 2020 I've not even step outside of my house. This pain is unbearable but i don't want to die like this I want to write, I want to read all books and want to spread love and positivity through my writhing & RUclips videos. I'm so thankful to universe 🌌 who purposefully suggested me this video. Thankuu so soo muchhh. I'll work on myself bc I want to tell my story to this beautiful world.
Hi there. I suggest you start with a book called IKIGAI. It's quite helpful. It's helping me too.
cope
I pray this soon shall pass ❤
I’m so sorry, force yourself and book a flight to your favorite destination. And stop and smell the flowers 🌸
I always wonder why do people often act & behave as if they are here forever. Its so simple to understand yet so difficult to explain to some. When you subconciosly realize that you are here for a while, you start living, spending time with your family, doing what you love & being kind. Its a short life guys. Chase dreams, Chase peace.
I'm from the beautiful country in Africa called Gabon so I am Gabonese. I learned my English through your video and I grew and awoke with your records and I want this to continue for many many years again. Thanks so much for all you've done in my life
Same here from Congo🇨🇩 Learned a lot through his videos
I'm going to be 42 this year and the only thing I'm going to say is don't waste your time and enjoy the people and family that you love in your life as it isn't going to be forever.
All the best for the future.
Ah I am excited to see what you'll do in the future! I love a lot of your content and I even share some of your videos with others and even quote one of your spoken word pieces too.
And for everyone freaking out about the fact that he is "Quiting", read the description of the video. He isn't quitting. He's still planning to upload content. He's just going to upload it to be more authentic to himself now at least from what I understand. He just didn't upload for a while because he wanted to take a step back and now he's coming back with A New perspective. That's all. So no need to worry.
Yeah ig he will be quitting everything except RUclips for uploading for his audience. He will completely be a creator and doze off consuming.
As I watched this I’m on a month long break from FB, IG, & TT. Great timing for me hear this & I 100% agree💯 Much love 🙏
ok
We will follow your website- agreed on social media dividing us, putting salt into wounds trying to heal and giving way too much air time to those on all sides that want to keep sides divided. Bless you Sir- You are so courageous on a given day that we should be ashamed we don’t do more and better ourselves.
I’m 7 days without TikTok and Instagram, and I must say, you can do so much in a day and enjoy the moment. Appreciate the fact that GOD gave you another day. People nowadays wake up and go straight to TikTok, instead of waking up and saying good morning to your parents.
This has to be beyond the caliber of some of the great speeches of the past. You seriously are doing Gods work brother. I detox and quit social media weeks at a time, slowly to come back to it..and notice how the pull and negativity starts to seep in back to the mind. It's sneaky at first, but insidious nonetheless.
Can't express how grateful I am for your work man. This is the first of your videos I've ever commented on, moved me to tears of Joy
This video release was perfectly timed for me. Today I complete my internship, my last requirement to graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science. I now move on to my next phase of life where I'll have more income than ever before. This is a good time to reflect and think about what is truly valuable in life.
Bro this sounds fantastic! Try to enjoy every second of your new journey💪🏼
"I thank you and I thank myself" I can't say how much I appreciate your words with a thank you. Just by moving a little piece, by saying the right words at the right time, you can change everything. And that is something you have accomplished for me and thousands of others. May your will never be forgotten.
I quit Facebook 10 months ago and I don't miss it. Got tired of all the gossip and irrelevent photos.
I quit Facebook and tiktok and I feel like stress it literally gone since I watch this channel I know my success didn't come from anyone it come from my heart.. thank you for make us wake up from fake dream that social make...
I quit all social media but RUclips since 2018 and i fell much happier and grateful to life.
As a Muslim, This video touches my heart. In our religion,we do believe in the afterlife and God will ask us about our lives and what did we do with it . This is so true that we have to live fully in this life and social media is just a way to communicate not a place to live. Yes, we are not here to gain fame or anything, each one of us have a purpose ,God look at our hearts and you really described life from Islam's perspective.
Thank you so much,I wish everyone find their happiness and live fully each moment not just existing ❤
as a jew this is 10000% correct my friend! may Allah bless you and this wonderful life
This life is for afterlife
same girl i agree im a muslim
Agreed I'm a muslim too
As a Jew as well I think this is one of those beautiful things that speaks to every person and religion, because I think that every religion recognizes the truth of this principle. It's pretty crazy that the core of every religion is so similar and so true. Prince Ea articulated it so perfectly.
All praises go to the most high, our Father and Creator, in him there is freedom!
“There won’t be an another you” this hits me right in the face😔 Your videos opened my eyes thank you so much
Prince ea, I can’t even explain how grateful I am for this video you’ve made. It has opened many eyes, myself included on what we can truly become. Thank you so so much, this video will change lives and will change mine for the better. Love you man.
That line where you ask what success mean to us, pause the video and appreciate where we're really made me feel relaxed and for a moment I let go of the anxious questions which has been eating me away everyday. Really cleared my mind!
“Hide in their heart, it’s the last place they’ll look”
WOW! I needed to hear that. We really need to be in touch with our hearts and be our true selves.
Prince Ea never fails to make me contemplate all of my life decisions after watching his videos
We've missed you. Thankyou for yet another masterpiece. It's been around 5 months I've quit social media and it's been a great time just hearing people I wish to follow through youtube. You've made a great impact on my life all through my teen years and I'll forever be grateful for the wisdom you've given me. Best wishes for your future. ❤️
I’ve missed Prince EA’s videos… his videos and motivation hit different. Everything is so perfectly crafted in each video and they’re always inspiring
What a video. The story in the beginning took me whispers.
This man reached it. Mister you really won the game.
Thank you, Prince EA. You are a gift to mankind.
I'm so grateful to being reminded about the real purpose of life. We are all trapped in this infinite loop of striving for something material and completely neglecting the real purpose of our lives. At the end of our lives, none of that is going to matter.
I got off a few days before new years.. it’s been amazing. Got my life back lol. It’s like the 90’s all over again
Yes! The 90s and early 2000s were the best! Social media wasnt really as big ad it is now, life was so much more simple, we were more present with friends and family, & life was more precious
I'm thankful that there's a man who opened our eyes. The man who inspired millions of people. The one who needed by the world. The same man who also wake me up from my dull view of life to becoming more active, present, and the desire explore new things. Thank you, Prince Ea.
Out of all the things he said, what touched me the most is "I will take more ice-cream" 🤧
I cried this was such a beautiful message. I remember I found you a while ago Prince. And I always enjoyed your speeches and related to you. Life would be so great if everyone thought this way. I’m 18 and I’m still figuring things out and my thoughts always come about like this. People need to wake up and really understand the meaning of life. What life is. We must define life. But comparing, jealousy, hatred, negativity, social media all get in the way. I will continue to focus and be on my own lane. Although I still have trouble with the social media part, I’ve been trying my best to deactivate from the things that drain my energy on there. If everyones feed was filled with things like this , man life will be great and many people would be humbled. This is my own life story and it’s my job to act. I wish everyone luck while going through their own life journey. Remember to always humble yourself. Thank you prince.
“…you can never have enough of what you don’t really want.” Wow, truly eye-opening.
To me a successful life is filled with happiness and adventure after I found this guy, I realized that we should not be spending our lives looking through social media because like you said in our death beds we are going to think back to these old times and wish we did it differently so help yourself out "It won't be easy, but you have to try." I hope this message helps anyone who reads it.
