One of the most tedious Tyson videos ever. Not what the title said.
Shinigami Lee this
Or search for Neil's legitimate post that's not click bait!
What a fraud. He couldnt even have a real debate with a flat earther
Clickbait title and thumbnail confirmed
"Don't look for meaning in your life , create meaning in your life !" This is the line that sticks with me. Fight for your dreams ! Be Generous ! Respect others and yourself !
That's Absurdist philosophy
Why not both ?
Swami Vivekananda said this! First!
It’s weasel words
You need Sadhguru bro
"If someone tried to take control of your body and make you a slave, you would fight for freedom. Yet how easily you hand over your mind to anyone who insults you. When you dwell on their words and let them dominate your thoughts, you make them your master." -Epictetus.
Never heard it put that way. Got me thinking hmmm, that's so true.
Beautifully stated.
Learn to box or muay thai . It will help you control your mind at those times. And the ones that push past your limits . You can humble them wi th your fist
@@arenuzzle6282 Not everything can be solved with violence bro.
Wow... I've never heard of this quote. It made me literally cry. Thank you so much for sharing. I'm going to frame this so that I may read it often.
This man embodies the essence of wisdom, compassion, humanity, civility, AND he is one of the most brilliant and educated men among us. I listen to every video he makes because it makes me a better scholar, a better citizen, and a better human being. Thank you, Dr. Tyson...you are a gift to the world and excitement to the brain.
Unless you believe in the Bible
You'll believe anything that's said right.
He is a charlatan
@@genox3636 true..lol😅
Lol
I love this man. He is so genuine, kind, and extremely intelligent.
Fake scientist
@@charsiu_808 what a dumb person thinks a genius is like. Truth is NDT is a midwit (above average IQ people that define themselves by their intelligence and become insufferable), which Affirmative Action programmes have made him who he is today. Even annoying Joe Rogan. That’s impressive in a very unimpressive way.

Love?? Obviously you don't have a stable family, Love gets used far too easily
@@charsiu_808 thank you for being awake.
An expression I learned years ago that has helped me get over and move on from nasty, mean people is, "What others think of me is none of my business."
The thing that gives me perspective on what happens, what others do, and life in general is "Everything is Temporary." Told to me by a veteran service officer with the VA who is a Vietnam veteran. Being a Gulf War and Iraq veteran, it was something I needed to hear, because the military makes us care greatly about even the smallest of things. I ask myself if its giving me stress right now, will it matter in 5 billion years when the sun goes red giant and engulfs the earth? Of course not. Does it matter right now? Sure, it could be immensely important or just a little, but tomorrow it might not, so I handle what I have to handle today, and stop worrying.
My current stress... I have three broken winter beaters in my yard, and I am stranded 13 miles from town unless I drive my restored 1965 GTO that I rebuilt, thankfully the salt is off the roads due to warm weather, but there is no heat in it. Usually I have 5 to 8 feet of snow here this time of year, and they are spreading salt like candy in a 4th of July parade from 1976, but its nice out there and it rained earlier this week so the roads are clean. So I find the whole thing simply amusing. So its time to put them in the shop, one by one, and fix them. Just do what you gotta do.
I haven't cared what other people think about me since I was 9 or 10. They didn't like me anyway, so why care? People like me now, and its nice, but not the meaning of my life. I like that expression of yours though. Unless they have some kind of power or control over you, what people think about you is only important to them.
What about when they tell you how they think about you?
@@SweatyFatGuy Permanently disabled: A condition that is not temporary.
@@yukikodavila4907 I look them in the eyes and say, "Your opinion of me is none of my business, have a wonderful life." Then walk away.
@@yukikodavila4907 sure it is, it only lasts until we die. Thus, temporary. Shadows and dust.
Spent an hour with Neil 5 years at my wife’s Christmas party (Family Guys) the brilliance, kindness and generosity will always be with me
dunno why sounds like a closed minded knob to me....
He probably hit on your wife. He's a cad. But.....like you- he's a liberal. So -no harm no foul.
Just ignore these other comments, they were probably molested by their church youth paster.
@@davidvickers8425 Tyson is the one accused of many sexual misconduct allegations. Nitwit. He is just another Govt Hack that will say anything for a $ buck. When the camera is off he's manhandling the female staff. We've heard all this before havent we ? Nitwit.
Who is “we”? Nice “mango” ring to it.
A very long time ago I added a little something to that old saying, "Stick and Stones can break your bones, but words can never hurt you, unless you allow them to." Not always easy, but absolutely true. I had many very violent words come my way, a thousand times, but I lived my version of the quote and somehow I'm still alive, without anyone ever being injured. Absolute faith. Never, ever over react. Relax. Pass out Love and Peace and you will have Love and Peace. Do things to the point of making them a part of your very being and then have faith.
0:25 “No one is going to tell me what I can’t do” that is one of the most beautiful prolific sentences I have ever heard a man say . Thank you for sharing his father’s knowledge with me and others. ✌🏽
I think you mean, profound.
@@gregoryhagen8801 no I meant prolific I was thinking of the analogy of “planting a seed in one’s mind “ when I wrote my comment. I felt that it was an aspiring quote that could motivate another to “grow”, seek or mature out of debilitating situations. But I do feel it is profound as well.
"What do I have to give? With no expectation in return?" Very powerful words!! Love it!
Neil has given the world a lot of propaganda that's for sure, and he ought to be ashamed of it, rather than proud as he is.
@@Rick-the-Swift what propaganda ? please explain
@@tomm3950 Hey Tom, I appreciate you're willingness to be open to new concepts, but if you understand anything at all about how propaganda works, you'll know that sifting through the heaps of it can be an arduous task, to say the least.
If you're not at all sure how it works or how to spot it, then I recommend reading or listening to some recognizable people who are well informed in the art. I'd start first with the book (or audio book) Propaganda, by Edward Bernays, but only if you are fully aware he was basically the United States chief executive to mastermind many US govt. endorsed/supported propaganda campaigns. To help you understand that, I'd recommend researching Mark Crispin Miller who studied and taught propaganda at NYU, and who wrote the forward to a later published addition of E. Bernays' book nearly a century after it was first introduced.
Consequently professor Miller was removed from duty shortly after the Covid-19 mandate propaganda drives became implemented in the US and around the world, as he was quickly able to recognize and call out the propaganda taking place. Consequently, he was just as quickly removed from his professing position by a single student who tweeted he was endangering lives.
If in the meantime I can find a link, or give more meaningful insight, I'd be happy to share it with you.
@@Rick-the-Swift that's not what I asked you
@@tomm3950 Yes it is. You just didn't like the answer I gave to you as it would require work on your part. That's not my problem.
"Don't look for meaning in your life , create meaning in your life". What a wonderful statement. I may not always agree with Mr. Tyson on any number of topics but this, this is spot on. Thanks for your thoughts Sir. Much respect.
Same here. I like certain things he says but just cannot truthfully say there are some things I really disagree with. But he sure knows about life, if someone disagreed with him on everything they can still agree on that.
@@SStupendous you agree with everything he says?
@@Eric-hz7ei "I like certain things he says, BUT"
Eric: Oh, you agree with everything he says?
I love your channel. I’ll be 70 in December 2022. I have just found my voice in 2018 when a tumor was removed from my brain. The craniotomy is not highlighted for the surgery. It’s a marker on my life journey timeline. PTSD set in and I became empowered after facing my memories of teenage paternal molestation and maternal narcissism. I am proud of who I am and how I came to this new revelation. Here’s my latest poem. I started authoring poems after surgery.
“Today
Today feels unburdened
Light and free at a cellular level churnin.
My heart filtering trauma remnants
Fragmentation broken freeing embedment.
Turning ashen darkness abyss from surreal
To awareness of a safe oasis appeals.
Mystery lurking to what each day brings
One day treading water
today I swim nimbly as an otter.
Spring sprouting tiny buds excitedly
Love for my children feeds my entire heart and heart strings.
Sigh of relief
I’m embracing this thing
The thing that buries the trauma in a bottomless bracket sealed lockring.
Oh the joy
When a quote is sent by my dearest friend,
My soul sister, bound by creativity,
unhinged from societal proclivities.
“Strong women aren’t born,
They’ve forged through fires
They’ve had to walk through.
They’re warriors with hearts of gold”-silver ravenwolf-
I’m a warrior,
trauma generational cyclical destroyer,
Learning to walk alone through the narrow doorway of new dreams
Dropping deadbeat toxic friends and family at my feet.
A ball of string resembles clutching this set of familiar toxicity close to my heart
I don’t unravel it
I burn the ball scorching all remains for my fresh start.
Today is the day I choose to navigate
Not yesterday or tomorrow that is susceptible to self flagellate.
Today is the day I cherish the crew
handpicked trusted loved ones
Who love honor respect
Most assuredly cherish me
AS I DO,
through and through. “ Kimi Minor
“For me, I am driven by two main philosophies: know more today about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you.”

My grandfather, that didn't attend school past the 8th grade and was very successful, told me to never quit educating myself, try to learn something new every day. I have lived that and find that I have lived, not existed. There's a very big difference between the two.
My grandpa told me something similar. He lost his mother at 10 years old and he left school and began working to support his younger brother and sisters. I have learned so much from him especially how to love people.
My.Father lived a short life but he set a good example!.I.miss.him and my Mother every day and hope I am a good role model for my children and grandchildren!
A lot of millionaires dropped out by 8th grade. Probably before indoctrination.
@@carolharris6382 , my grandfather attended 8th grade in 1906. I don't know if they were indoctrinated back then. But I think he would have been immune to it. He quit to go to work and help the family.
I will say 95% of Neil's teachings I can understand compared to my school and I appreciate the fact that he teaches that just because you will never use this it is teaching your brain how to learn I've never had a teacher tell me that I might have focused more if I was actually taught that I was learning how to learn
"You can only be ridden if your back is bent" Such a powerful quote that a grade school teacher read to us, he would pick out powerful and motivational quotes from some of the smarter people to ever live. And one I've always kept in my head and used as motivation throughout life.. One of so many incredible quotes by Martin Luther King..
"Create meaning in your life, don't just passively look for it. " I love that. I think Im hanging that one up.
“If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not people or things.”
- Albert Einstein
👍
How the hell do we know what Albert Einstein has said? Too often there are insightful words tied to people who simply DID NOT SAY THEM. It’s become a method in which to get people to give credibility to words that they would not otherwise give it to. Who is Einstein anyway? Some guy “they” have been putting in our faces since we were children. What does anyone really KNOW about this Einstein character? What do YOU reading this really KNOW about him? What can you say about him? What can you say about him that wasn’t trained into you about him? Quotes on their OWN (aka “unknown author”) have next to no power, all because most PEOPLE on their own BELIEVE they THEMSELVES have next to no power.
I respectfully disagree with that statement. One of the biggest regrets of people on their deathbed is that they wish they could have done better in term of relationships and for the people around them.
My point is : you must have the wellbeing of other people in mind when setting up your life goal. Or else it's just a selfish goal. What is the point of "success" and happiness if you accomplished nothing positive for those around you ? (and when i say "accomplish", it's not about being known and reaching the top 1%, it's all about being a nice and decent human being)

"Create meaning in your life."
You've also heard "everything happens for a reason". I think we can create the reason(s) for which something happened after the fact... cause and effect.
Instead of reacting to something negative that happens with apathy, depression, or numbness, give meaning to what happened by creating something positive in response.
I love this man. His intelligence is unique. The knowledge he shares with people is invaluable.
I spent so much of my life as a Police Detective working with and investigating Street Gangs, Cults, and Extremists, and I learned how monsters are made, whether willing or not. I also watched so much greatness go to waste because of words and actions by adults. I still consult and lecture today. So much insight can be gathered from these interviews that can change a person's life.
I love this channel. It has so much to offer.
Abuse is related to Spiritual warfare
We're never as strong, as we are until we have to be. Never Do as much, unless the need we see. Only give our best, when we fail at mediocrity. We Love rather than hate when we admit we're one humanity. We always give more, when compassion moves our heart with unbridled generosity. We Become more of our potential when we are made to see, that clearly our minds can believe in unfathomable possibilities, while seizing every opportunity, here in lies one's destiny. More than our scars, higher than our stars, for in our flaws are what defines our features, they're uniquely ours, as human creatures.
We can run faster than on our slowest day. Reason better, and thinking it through all the way, regardless which direction our emotions may sway. We can find our voice when speechless, our strong words with meekness and our Courage in weakness. Always patience not quickness. Silence for peace than loudness, quietness of fear, not hopeless, for time and effort are equally unbiased. We are more than the stories we're told, we're the one's we write, each page unfold. We are the sum of our Lies and truth, fantasy, fiction, faith, and myths, no matter how uncouth. These are what shape us, our lives lived is the proof. We can be more right than wrong. More just than judge. More godlike than unlike. Reflecting Sunlight in our darkest night.
Providing refuge. Never more alive until we die within and begin again. A Human Ark Divine in our human spark.

@@My_Secret_ArtSketchbook isn't just what you do but what you don't do. Not just what you did but how you did it. Not just what you said but how you said it. Love is so simple yet the simple make it so hard. Love Is full of knowledge yet even the smart don't get it. Love doesn't cost a fortune yet fortunes are spent trying to gain it. Love does demand of you yet you are not willing to sacrifice for it. Those who only seek what love can give and do for them, do nothing for love and others and in such selfish pursuit, in turn rob themselves of love's best gift. Make this year the year you seek to sow love and not just reap it. Be love and not just think it. Do love and not just say it. Talk love and just don't fake it. Seek love and just don't chase it. Embrace it but don't enslave it, share it but don't dare boast in it. Enjoy it but don't abuse it. Free it and watch it come back. Invest in it and watch it pay back. Wash your life in it, light your darkness with it, eat your food with it conduct your business with it and above all else Serve God in it. For whatever love is and is not, it's all of, for and From Him. He is LOVE! "

Old Dudes Wisdom - Life requires Wisdom Channel great quotes! Thank you!
Thanks bro
I simply hated the idea of having conflicts in my life. I had the compulsion that you could only be happy in the absence of conflicts in all aspects of life. Consequently, my actions were in accordance to how others were feeling at the moment. I thought this was the right way to deal with relationships, but it obviously wasn't. I only became more vulnerable.
Sincerely accepting the following sentence with my heart changed my life:
“You can be happy, regardless of whatever.”
I was convinced that if I really was okay, I would have a comfortable and happy life under any circumstance.
After establishing this emotional pillar, I felt other people trying to support me. Many people also began to make more time to talk with me.
There were people who said they wanted to start a new project with me, work with me, or simply spend more time with me. Some connected me with opportunities that I had always set my eyes on. This phenomenon was truly amazing, and is unforgettable.
Self-reliance?
Exactly.
A message that could literally change the world.. Imagine, if everyone lived their lives with a clear goal to leave this earth a better place than it was.
"Be ashamed to die before you have scored some victory for humanity".
Thank you, Neil deGrasse.
This is what Christ is talking about, the type of LOVE Mr. Tyson is talking about. Bless his heart
Bless you too, Donald. 🥀
*"You have the power to create MEANING in your Life".*
That is a very powerful statement. I was in a very dark hopeless place before I came across this video. How simple words can change a life.
Thank you S Singh for sharing! I hope you get what you’re looking for in your life starting now going forward...
I have attempted to meditate many times in my life and prior to this CD the only success I've experienced is with live guided meditation. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq This is the first CD I've used that cuts through my unmedicated ADHD and enables me to truly relax and experience a quiet and energizing interval. The instructors voice is very soothing and pleasant to listen to. I am easily able to sit successfully through the entire CD, and for quite some time after. I cannot adequately express how tremendously helpful this CD has been on my spiritual journey!! Two thumbs up and 10 stars!
"You don't look for your meaning of life. You create your meaning of life." I resonated with that. Thank you 💕.
But I though Neil doesn't believe in creationism..?
I'm a life long learner and didn't need college to do it either and still learning and loving it
Neil no matter what they make you keep quiet about, you still manage to add something of genuine substance, of immense value! Great advice from one who KNOWS!
I admire Neil deGrass Tyson for his courage and decency. I'm convinced that he values truth and will not intentionally mislead anyone.
Agreed. I believe in a God, mostly because of the Big Bang theory (if all matter, energy, and TIME was encapsulated within the demi-particle in perfect balance, then something changed and it exploded to create the universe, then wtf, how could something change without time unless acted upon by an outside force (God or ar the equivalent)). I do not believe God is a Caretaker. We may or may not be His favorite creation, it often seems as though it's more of a "Let's see how this works out" situation.
That being said, and with all due respect to Dr. Tyson, PLUTO IS A FRICKIN' PLANET! (will never forgive).
You never know
lol i feel bad for this human race. believe whatever makes ya happy
good thought,,,,,,,,,i also believe he wouldn't mislead anyone intentionally,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but without realizing it ,,,,,,,,,,he is misleading people................looking for meaning, creating your own meaning,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Jesus Christ is the only real meaning in this whole world ,,,,,,,,,,,no matter how much he does for humanity before he dies it will never be enough.............without JESUS CHRIST YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY TO HELL,,,,,,,,,NO MATTER HOW MUCH GOOD YOU THINK YOU'VE DONE FOR SOCIETY
i respected him for some stuff he said, like he got annoyed at atheists for writing on wikipedia that he was an atheist while he don't consider himself one, he said "i dont' care about the question much, i guess i'm an apathetic atheist"
but on another hand i felt he was overhyped by media, his positions on UFO, SpaceX and El Ghazali contradicts my convictions
and i think his knowledge about those topics are superficial or lazy scholarship
i won't get into some stupid comments he made too, but i think he might be a descent person but too much overhyped
“What do you have to give with no expectation in return.” Beautiful words to live by.
@Joe Stockton and @ Mac Smith...the bullying on the internet still continues...smh

Exactly those are good words to live by, Amen 🙏🙏🙏
Niel is correct about our education systems. They do not foster curiosity they crush it. Parents start the process when they stop answering their childrens simple questions of "Why?". If you stop teaching children about the world they are curious about, how can you expect to teach them about anything else?
Neil deGrasse Tyson. You are an inspiration to us all 😅
Exceptionally moved by that tombstone quote " Be Ashamed to die until you score some win for humanity." If anyone is reading this lets help each other keep that score.
I'm a fan of that statement too, but I don't think this should be considered the gold standard, unless by "humanity" we also mean the humanity in people surrounding us.
The thumbnail "I was told by the 1% not to speak of this" is false, dr. DeGrasse Tyson never said it. Why have you attributed false words to him? For clicks and views? That cancels out the beautiful speech he gives in the video
Definitely, people reading this, dont waste your time on this bullshit motivation videos, u should better listen to podcasts etc like the joe rogan - tyson podcast
It'll change ur life if u believe the lies of this 33rd° turd
Also , could they get a worse pic of him ?
I agree with you. Though I really liked this lecture, it had nothing to do with the title.
Wouldn't the 1% be the elites?
Wow! That's what I've always felt and said,
"The meaning of a good life it the world being a better place for you having been here and a poorer place for you having left."
"Be ashamed to die, until you have scored some victory for humanity" - Neil Degrasse Tyson.
Damn, that's something else. Hats off Mr Tyson.
Indeed it is. If everyone valued their life in terms of what it's doing for the big picture... We would all fight together
THat quote was on the Twilight Zone episode "CHanging of the guard", in about 1960 or so.
“BE ASHAMED TO DIE UNTIL YOU HAVE SCORED SOME VICTORY FOR HUMANITY”
MY QUESTION TO THIS EPITAPH IS HOW CAN ANYONE SCORE SOME VICTORY FOR HUMANITY WITHOUT KNOWING THE REASON FOR EXISTING AS A PART OF HUMANITY?
"Be ashamed to die, until you have scored some victory for humanity" HORACE MANN quote, not Mr. Tyson. Simple google
"Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity."
Horace Mann, Address at Antioch College (1859)
I hope that the short time I will be remembered after my death, people will say that I was “kind”. There will be no movies or books written about me but kindness can easily be passed down even if no one knows where it came from. Thank you for you wonderful words and the importance of learning to think beyond a current fad.
Kind is good enough! I hope you have many more years of kindness before you.
Kindness is a good thing to live by ... so many don't . You will have made DIFFERENCES you may not be aware of . I know acts of kindness from strangers has given me hope . All hope is not lost .. These strangers would not have known the impact their small act of kindness has given . Just believe me when I say it counts . It can change a person's day or even life ... You don't always get the thanks or know the impact you have made . Don't let that stop you being kind . It really does matter ! 👍✌. Have a great day ...
A brilliant man, and a brilliant communicator.
The message of this video is profound. Last night, 12/1/2022 my wife and I, in Hartford Connecticut, heard Dr. Tyson speak about the Universe. I wondered how his disciplined and informed mind views the day to day issues we face. This video's content and imagery are soothing and provocative. I'm glad Dr. Tyson is in our lives.
Still just theory's...some... Nothing he's not intelligent just saying some unknown are just that unknown and can only be surmised or very or likely outcome...
This is so true. When I was a kid people told me I should give up playing guitar. I did not give up. I kept practicing. By the time I was 20 people were saying I was good. Now I am the best guitar player in Canada. And I keep practicing.
That's awesome! I was around 12 when I discovered Lita Ford and decided that's what I wanted to do. My parents paid for lessons, bought the purple BC Rich Warlock I asked for at Christmas, they weren't exactly discouraging, but they strongly suggested I learn something as a backup, just in case.💕
@@alliemw that's also awesome! I'm a crap guitarist (my talents lie elsewhere) but I did name my daughter after Lita Ford.
I haven't watched the complete video, but what's being said here can be used in an array of ways. It's kind of sad that any adult will stoop low to tell a child that they won't be good at x, y or z. I can see their peers and those who company they keep making fun of them (whether for jokes or in an attempt to bully them)......but an adult doing that is just off! Most kids don't even realize how most adults can see what they're capable of......and depending on the quality of the adults mind they will either try to mentally and physically destroy them or they will be an asset to what they can see they're capable of. It's a shame, but hey. Folk will also use words to manipulate and steer others to think in ways that they want them to or want them to start thinking.....something you can see on the internet hourly. Whether it be about themselves, their goals, their sanity, their interest.....the list goes on. This type of "psychology" has always been in circulation. To the point that those who use it will believe that everyone is like them and desire to control and manipulate others at will (for whatever self serving reason). What's fun for some, is pretty much a bore for others.
"To Give, with no expectation of return". I try to do that every day in my work, in my family and in my community. Neill is right that it is definitely not about praise or recompense and this video was wonderful.
Don't preach your morals too anyone,keep them too yourself.
Who preaches this all the time?
Where do this morals come from?
What god gave these Comandments?
Why should anyone else care?
The quote sounds good on paper, but how much did he get paid for this interview? How often did he perform with no recompense? If what he did, did not pay the bills, he would do something else, as would most people.
“Many people look for meaning in life. & I think to myself, your better then that. Create meaning in your life” THIS!!!!!
This is what I needed to hear first thing in the morning. These are the words that inspire me to continue my studies with Social work, and travel I wish i could have have him as my neighbor everywhere I go
"Be ashamed to die, until you have scored some victory for humanity"
Words...to live by.
I'm one of those that just does not understand greed and selfishness. Never been a part of my 'make-up'. Nothing makes me happier than to see someone smile...simply because I held the door open for them. I love to build things...and I can't tell you how it warms my heart to see the appreciation on someone's face for my efforts.
In some small way, I hope that my feeble efforts account for some small 'victory'.
"Be ashamed to die unless you have won some victory for humanity" was on the Twilight Zone, "Changing of the guard". Plagurism?
When Neil was talking about how parents sometimes give the reason "because I said so" instead of a meaningful reason, I can relate 1000%. From an early age I started asking "why" to just about everything my parents told me to do. Quite often their answer was "because I said so". Don't get me wrong, my parents are the nicest, most caring people I know. I just wish they had given me more meaningful answers when I asked why.
I always need to know why before I do anything.
Believe me I know that saying so well "Because I Said So" and I often tell it to my three children, and I couldn't understand it for the life of me. I now get it; sometimes you can't really put into words the real answer your child will understand so you say because I said so.
When you're amongst people that mean you well, it's for you to listen........whether or not they're related to you. As that's just the order of things. We're all blessed in ways that we need to be for whatever amount of time. There are children that are amongst the scum of the earth (that they know to be family) and they'll either listen to these types and fall prey to their phuckery or they will ignore them and learn to make good choices (compliments of their internal guide). Sometimes it's best to appreciate that which you're *given, as the reason for their presence supercedes your understanding. I know kids that got beside themselves and made a mockery of kids/people they knew that did not have the essentials that they had (mother/father and family) Time fast forward and every adult that they had in their life that they knew as family started passing away. Before they knew it, they literally stood in the same shoes that the individual/s they made a mockery of stood in. The only difference between them and that person/those individuals was, they ended up losing their mind, as they had no idea what it meant or felt to be without what they were use to. Although there are those that may fall short in one area, trust and believe they've been equipped in others. No different than those that have what appears to be normal and natur.
One of my friends was so proud of his daughter for combining curiosity and politeness. She answered him with "I'll do what you say, Daddy, but could you please explain why?"
I need to make connections between things in order to learn, and Neil is great at that
"Don't worry about which words people use to define you, you must define yourselr and the words you use will lift the world." - Mark Anthony McDowell
Such a fantastic human! Love him and what he says.
“This time won’t be different unless you do something different.” That’s pretty much all I needed to hear today
I’m 62 and was taught the “sticks and stones” mantra. It’s excellent to deflect the arrows people send your way. It helps if you don’t believe about yourself internally what the nasty people say to you. So another skill parents need to teach their children is how to be a good person and to value that about yourself. We’re all born with immutable characteristics that none of us chose. We’re bombarded with images that warp our senses so we begin to compare our immutable characteristics we didn’t choose with the images we’re shown that we’ve interpreted as having value and use them to assess our worth and internalised. Along comes an arrow from a nasty unenlightened person that says out loud what you’ve come to believe about yourself and that’s why it hurts. Not because they believed it about you, but because you believed it about yourself. Imagine if a child was taught the folly of judging themselves based on characteristics they had no choice in and instead valued themselves because they believed themselves to be a good person. Along comes a nasty name attached to an arrow and now it’s meaningless, because it says nothing about their personhood, That’s the armour if resilience we need to give to children, because we’ll never rid the world of nasty unenlightened people and nor should we want to lest we become them.
You are truly a wise person, my friend. May you live a long, happy life.
I try to tell people the same. You have learn how to Love yourself first, no One can Love you if you don't love yourself... Don't worry if your pretty, handsome, make enough money, my body is not perfect, I'm not smart enough for somebody,. Were not looking at ourself to want go on a date with ourselves. There is no need to worry about it. It is up to others to see and decide what they think of us. each of us have different perspectives, see things differently . One person might see think another might not might might not bad. Some people think im crazy others think im smart, People see me in all kinds of ways. When I was shy , insecure and I heard he must think he is better than us.. When I stop shy and insecure and learn to share I still heard , he must think he's better. Just learn to Love your Self and except who you are..If you want to loose weight and don't, accept and move on with life. Life can become easy when can remove the Fear and the lies that have been trying to stick inside us since birth. It is your life it's up to you to create what you want and how you want to live. Free your mind and the rest will follow.
I was teased. They made me feel vulnerable because of their attacks. Not because I was aware of any flaws in me. I was just a kid wanting to enjoy life. They didn’t find weakness. They created weakness.
@@brentbeacham9691 I hear you...My step mom the schools the government made a lot of insecurities in me. Messed me up pretty for a good part of my life. They never really broke me and made it through found my way and my answers. These days I feel for kids.
@@catkeys6911 Are you sure? There is wisdom in what she wrote but does that make her a wise person? Notice Roxee57 words and the one's above. They have a fatal flaw, the self! Learning can't take place in a vacuum, no man is an island. "There is more than connects us than divides us"
We are social animals, we learn off each other, including the nasties.
The wisdom is fine if you can deflect the arrows, the wisdom is fine if you have the ability to ignore the insults, the wisdom is fine if you know they are nasty people and the insults aren't true, especially if one is bombarded.
But if one never obtained the armour nor is it immutable, then the resilience could be formed from the insults, doesn't take much to turn that armour to bitterness.
Turn and offer the other cheek and enable the nasty person or stand up to them and risk turning into them?
That the binary choice you were offered by your 'wise person'. Dig deeper, perhaps there's a more wise third option? You missed the relevance of the runners story. Neither did he ignore and not believe the insult, nor did he fight against it, the third option won the race.
Sticks and stones can break my bones....but words can never hurt me.... Heard it all my life.....growing up. You can only be hurt by what you let in.....
Blessings to you.
That's MEANING brother! Love this interview. I have ALWAYS came away feeling GREAT after one of his shows. This one is AWESOME!

Agreed.
Thank you
Wonderful ! It’s all about giving. But one must have something to give, that’s were the inner discovery comes in. Cheers!
What we give good to others that's the only things we're taking to the other life.
"What do you have to give, with no expectation of return?"
That's a true love statement; beautiful statement!!
The greatest victory for humanity would be that every human being on this planet treat others in the same manner that they would like to be treated. Love your neighbor as yourself.
The very ending of this video is something i have always lived by, when i do something for someone i NEVER expect anything in return, i did that cause i wanted to
We truly need to appreciate our scholars and scientists more than we already are now, but I believe that if the world had more people with behavior reminiscent of Neil's in this video (and in others), this world would be a much better, cleaner and much more peaceful than it is now.
I just lost my job because of the pandemic, so I started a UA-cam channel. I'm not giving up!!!💪
Right on, I hope it works out for you!!!
Good for you. I'll search and subscribe.
I believe in you, never give up 🤜🤛
You have given up. That's why you are on you tube

"The two most important days in your life are the day you're born and the day you find out why."
Mark Twain
What was the answer the one percent not speaking of? What Tyson wasnt supposed to say? Is ir some kind of test or bs?
@@riapia3944 i think alot of what you say is true. I was thinking about why there is such
a politicle divide and what we can do to fix it or at least take a step towards it. I think there is a feeling of disconnect between the people and politicians. How can we change that? Well ask the people what are the top three thinngs they whould like to see change and who they think is responsible to change them once . Now they have a voice. Then those thoughts can be addressed on a local and state and federal government level . Like a national survey that really is concrete. The people need to feel they are heard and the government will have direction
The day you , or anybody else finds out Why they were born is a very simple question to ask .
The most logical answer is that your parents wanted to start , to have a family , you are living your life because of a decision your parents made . More than likely you were not a accident , a unwanted pregnancy , and your brith was a blessing to your parents and the world .
ahhi guess he didnt realize that you have no memory of your birth, sooooooooo really, its bullshit

I find myself often saying, 'I watched NdGT on a video and I learned this.... ' Like the tides are the water staying put/pulled toward heavenly bodies, and earth rotating through the ocean's low and high points- clear concise and an 'oh wow' moment. And countless other things I often wondered about. It is one thing to be a know it all, and another completely, to spread good knowledge in a clear and understandable way. National treasure he is. Thankful to be paying attention to him.
Testament to his expansive knowledge - he is online across many channels and media and everyone one wants him to speak on their behalf. Thanks for being you.
Excellent set of sentiments.
A few months ago, I read a story once about dying and the soul goes to the place of judgement. There God asks like 30 questions . "Have you bore false witness (slander/gossiped)?", "Have you murdered?", ... to the very last and most important question that could over rule all the negative offenses, "Is there anyone for whom you helped make their life better that will speak for you?"
Yes, changing the world does not mean you did all the work yourself. You change the world every time you interact with another. A kindness, helps make the other kinder. Cruelty makes the other more cruel.
People wonder why I harp on manners, courtesy, politeness, and respect. I believe when you show true respect you elevate the person you are interacting with, that their world view improves a little. The same goes for when you are polite, courteous, or mannerly. It rubs off, if only minutely in some cases.
I am mostly hermit like but when out shopping or traveling, if I can I try to make at least one person's day a little better. I call it random acts of kindness. And though that is not why I do it, as I have done this for years/decades, maybe if questioned one of these people will step up and speak for me. I will know then that I did just a tiny bit of good and maybe helped change the world.
True to self truth in this world.
You spoke my heart.
This great man's voice always make me pause and listen.
It's interesting that many smart and unbiased individuals in their late years seemed to be humbled and acceptance to the openness of the mysterious universe.
You will definitely leave this world a better place Neil.
I love you Neil. It was like you were literally in my mind and speaking for me. Much love to you and your family.
isn't just what you do but what you don't do. Not just what you did but how you did it. Not just what you said but how you said it. Love is so simple yet the simple make it so hard. Love Is full of knowledge yet even the smart don't get it. Love doesn't cost a fortune yet fortunes are spent trying to gain it. Love does demand of you yet you are not willing to sacrifice for it. Those who only seek what love can give and do for them, do nothing for love and others and in such selfish pursuit, in turn rob themselves of love's best gift. Make this year the year you seek to sow love and not just reap it. Be love and not just think it. Do love and not just say it. Talk love and just don't fake it. Seek love and just don't chase it. Embrace it but don't enslave it, share it but don't dare boast in it. Enjoy it but don't abuse it. Free it and watch it come back. Invest in it and watch it pay back. Wash your life in it, light your darkness with it, eat your food with it conduct your business with it and above all else Serve God in it. For whatever love is and is not, it's all of, for and From Him. He is LOVE! "

This man has a way of soothing your heart by enlightenment and I honestly can't get enough of it...
I've always respected him as a scientist and have been educated by his many programs but this video shows his true willingness to educate us on how we can de strong individuals sharing our knowledge to be better people
You sound like my father. He told me I am not responsible for the whole just for making my little corner of it better and if everyone does this the whole world will get better.
Neill is the coolest nerd on the planet. Everyone should hear this.

Great speech. Imagination is more important than knowledge - Albert Einstein.
Neil is a living wives tale! All the little anagrams and idioms he used during his speech is everything that black mothers and fathers teach their kids when they’re young. How do I know… Because I’m black and I was raised in the 70s so I have some idea. And like he said, “there aint a damn thing you can say that would hurt me!” I’m rubber, your glue… What bounces off of me sticks to you! Long live the 70s & 80s ✊🏽👊🏽
I couldn't agree more with the message "What did you give, without expectations, before you die! I live my life with this guiding me to help people out.
“Do not hold what powers you, let it loose and achieve your dreams”
So smart and so humble, so honest just a man in search of the absolute truth . . . .
I love this dude. Brilliant man in all aspects of life.
I simply love deGrasse Tyson. Intelligent, well spoken, wise, with all the good values. An amazing teacher.
I'm retired & I reflect on all those things I did in my life & I'm happy because I overcame a lot of hardships & I'm happy. Life lessons are always ongoing & educational.
I think that comes from the Bible . Let he who have not sinned cast the first stone ... As you will know stoning,s were a daily occurrence...back in that time . I do not believe myself as the Bible was written sooooo long after Jesus lived ... I believe Jesus was a normal man who started a religion. The bible is NOT his real story .. it was made up and edited ... a lot of the parts ended up in the bin . I enjoyed some of the moral stories . It is the judgemental parts. I find so wrong and dangerous . Every person interprets it differently too . Sadly to the detriment of their relationships with family or friends ... what Jesus meant by that or moses or whoever . Who says who has interpreted it correctly. Considering they also put the time frame in as the same time frame dinosaurs roamed the earth . Not one mention in the Bible ???? Pretty BIG oversight to say the least .... As I have said good moral stories but not to try and live life by in the 21st century ! ! Impossible.... just like some of the bible stories...🤷♀️ lol .👍✌. I believe Jesus was a good man who challenged the system. For that he was a good man but that's my point . Just like Tom Paine , Gandhi. Dr M.L.K.jr , Che Guevera, William Wilberforce William Wallace , Keir Hardie etc (I know I have missed a lot but this would go on forever so I was just trying to get a short mix of good men . That is who Jesus was. A man who saw the wrongs and injustices Who decided to act to try and bring much needed change .Even when the power is against them ! Brave men but no sons of God . I am obviously just putting forward my opinion . I can't speak for anyone else obviously ! !. I admire all the men on the list for doing what they did In their way to try and make a difference ! It is a trait that we seem to have lost with all the new laws passed . It is something that is not seen as much nowadays ! We could be doing with some modern day heroes of this caliber ! I really can,t think of ANYONE today as selfless and brave ! ✌ Good wishes and hats off to anyone who is trying to make a difference in this cold selfish world we live in today ! ! Sadly so many on this list were assassinated ! The truth is said to set us free ? Not so much as shot . What a world !
Has not sinned !!!*
that last bit gave me a small bit of hope for my fellow men.few people will ever do good for the sake of good but for those of you who do just know I thank you and hope you will pass on that to others as we need you all now more than ever.
Push your expected limitations almost to the uncomfortable zone where you can still breath but struggle some to take a deep enough breath. Be willing to do what others won’t. I’ve used, “Whatever it takes”,, quite a bit in my life. It was hard being pre judged all my life cuz the way I look. Nope. Not one tattoo. Just really long and wild hair and the attitude to be whoever I wanted to be.
So this advice from Neil is priceless. Hopefully it helps someone get out of the rut they are in.
I really admire this man -- He speaks truthfully and with wisdom, in addition to his good science. His father is probably very proud of him.
What exactly has he contributed to science? Speaking in platitudes is theater, not science.
@@Frankie5Angels150 If nothing else, he provides curiosity and inspires others to learn. James Doohan, Mr. Scott on the original Star Trek, told of getting fan letters from kids who ended up as engineers, as a direct result of being inspired by his character on a TV show.

He sounds intelligent and sincere here but I'm pretty sure he's a shill for our wonderful government/Military Industrial Complex/NASA... time is running out for you to WAKE UP!
"No expectation of return..." Beautiful.
Thank you Neil. Appreciate your sharing important life experience and advise.
I wish it was mandatory that our politicians would be REQUIRED to listen to you. So much wisdom with such a soothing manner.
Sad to say it would not matter. So many political leaders are owned by wealthy interests who funded them or by ignorant and angry voters who elect them.

Dear Sir, thank you for your time and wisdom, I do soo admire, respect and appreciate you...and of course enjoy watching you on TV... thank you so much.
I love to hear Mr. Tyson speak because it tells me at least someone knows what is true in this world and beyond and I strive to learn as much truth as I am able to~!!!!
NDT gives good advice in this video. I learned a long time ago that my thirst for knowledge was what drove me. I also learned to respect other people, and help them if and when I could. So I concur with NDS, as long as you are curious, and humane, you can live a fulfilling life, and if you can handle the tragedies that will inevitably occur, it can also be a happy life.
Thirst for knowledge can end up causing men to drink up the lies of other men, Blind leading the blind, There will be many in the ditch with Neil'

Then they control me. I laugh instead and keep moving toward MY mission. Not theirs.

I'm preparing for my entrance exams for engineering colleges(2 sep) I have not been into the game yet..i feel unprepared & lost every bit of confidence..everyone around me is in rush to get the best college & if you are feeling unprepared you are doomed because you are not gonna get a job & will die..that's all i hear around me & eventually started to believe got into stress & stopped studying cause i was getting overwhelmed around my books..basically too screwed
But after this video i get it now...i'll do the best i can in the few days i have with me because a college can't be my identity but my work & perseverance can be.
Here's something you'll discover sooner or later. Engineering majors tend to be a rip off. There's better material online, few teachers aren't boring robots and try to help you succeed. Computer or data science is miles better and more fun. Also, getting top certifications in IT often make a better impression than a degree. Too many students end up clueless with 100k in debt. I got a scholarship and it still felt like a waste of time. Make sure there aren't better options for you before going the college route.

But to be frank i personally am not yet sure about the branch moreover i kind am more into philosophy & literature(i love to write peoms & speeches) but can't go for them cause they are hard to make a living in

CS today is strongly focused on C++ and Python, which is great. If you're interested in computers you're going to enjoy the experience.
Can't do much with philosophy indeed, however there are plenty of courses/seminars online that offer certifications. Even as a hobby, totally unrelated to your job, it's fine to add any certs on your resume. It shows you're willing to improve yourself, the average student has nothing else on the resume except maybe a part time cashier job.
