High achievers often set increasingly difficult goals for themselves. Once they reach one milestone, they quickly move on to the next, without taking time to enjoy their success. This relentless pursuit creates a cycle where satisfaction is always out of reach.
"Ego is a false self-defense mechanism. Any moment in which you create a false sense of security to protect yourself from what ego fears the most- the present moment." GENIUS GENIUS GENIUS. it's so refreshing seeing people who also are involved in self improvement and wisdom learning and seeking the truth instead of being a sheep.
This is great. Thank you so much for this. I loved the part where u explained abt feeling alone around people but not in the way that ur better than them but due to this standard that u put urself into. I really get that. It’s almost like i think i know myself the best and i restrain myself subconsciously, limiting myself to this pretence of identity and want others to relate to that deeply so that i know they will get me 100 percent. Or maybe that’s not what u meant. Anyway thanks for this video. I find myself with a group of friends yesterday and they were singing randomly but i just can’t make myself join them, thinking that it isn’t me. It was such a raw moment for me I can’t explain it but i really do need to start letting myself breathe and let live
Exactly my thought process. Any place where I don't excel, I remove myself from. Anything that I don't do well in I stop doing. I have just spent enough time being mediocre and around the wrong people. I learned that the longer I entertain the wrong people, the longer it takes to meet the right ones
it's crazy how eye opening your videos are..because as crazy as it sounds if we don't even know ourselves or what defines our goals and for what we're standing up, for what are we living ? this strain of self sabotage and wave of regrets won't stop until we embrace time and our own existence 🙌
Holy shit... 85% of your self-image growing up is pretty much a mirror image of mine in the same period. My personal working hypothesis of the ego is that ego is essentially a misunderstanding. It's the misunderstanding (or illusion) that what you see in the mirror is you. As I see it, we humans (and therefore our egos) are not discrete things. We are helplessly and intimately intertwined with everything around us - we are part of a grand network which understood in the widest sense ultimately is the cosmos itself. Subconsciously, though, the ego senses and fears this non-existence of the delineated body we see in the mirror, and this fear that it doesn't exist is exactly what drives it to try to convince itself (and everyone else) of it's existence through all these strange inauthentic behaviors designed to say 'here I am, I exist, look at me so I can maintain the illusion that I'm am only this discrete body and mind. The much grander fact, of course, is that we are parts of the universe and therefore dying is returning home. Love you videos Liza, I hope you'll continue making them.
I think, along with our childhood traumas that sometimes shape us into these people who wanna overachieve and chase every single high life has to offer, that social media also has been playing a big role in raising the bar and the standards so high that if you wake up without a long ass To-Do List you'll feel out of place and completely left out. During the whole video, I kept imagining myself doing the opposite of what you and me have been doing for so long (overachieving) and my mind couldn't fathom it and I utterly felt lost of what I should do bc I think that my mind has been programmed to use ego, as you labeled it, as a false self-defense mechanism.
beautiful video, this was relatable in uncomfortable ways... pushing yourself to be your best from a young age is so relatable and for me the motivation behind that also never came from anybody else, I still wonder sometimes why I made myself crazy plans while others were chilling living their life.
another great video. we have achieved amazing things but have forgotten how to have fun. we are now returning to our childhood pursuit of creativity, purity, fun, play and laughter.
So true, our essence is basically 97% ego and 3% God. I think ego is a combination of thousands of little sub-egos each with their own desires which push people's minds around all day, and introspection is simply the way to identify and remove them
Unreal Feelings during watching the video and after end of it, it's so close to me, I feel like I speak with somebody, who knows me for all life. Very interesting, atmospheric shooting
Powerful & Relatable Words💯💯💯. The Editing was really well done and helped emphasize your points while painting a portrait of a story that seemingly made it's way full circle. May you remain blessed and positive in/towards the world God has gifted us where the future will be worth all the work put in from the start!
My goal is to live a little like a couple in the youtube video tiny "inmost house", maybe somewhat nicer and larger, or something similarly not needing endless funds. And find someone who similarly values having a best friend, literally living alive and free and vibrant and joyful like the characters in "secret garden"! Living amongst living things, valuing camaraderie, bonding, simple pleasures, spontaneity. Slow living and real connection seems like the true luxury, but unfortunately I feel our generation is lured endlessly by marketing into feeling the incessant need and addictive craving for more.
Wow I see so much similarities I am also a pisces, my parents are from russia I grew up very well in Germany. Maybe it is an east european thing to want to achieve something? I also isolated myself my whole life and always cut off people ...

I resonate so much with youu
Just thinking, maybe it might be a good idea to put this video as the intro video for your channel. The one on the left when you open a channel yk?
I love watching you live your life
I wouldn't call ego "false", but it is a defense mechanism. It wouldn't have evolved if it lacked utility.
