Sharing with yall some stuff I do when I don’t know what to do with my life. This video is for me as it is for anyone who needs it :) Thank you all for 2k🩵
Honestly, I feel like being an adult you get so many existential crisises because it is like ever since I graduated hs I feel like I am constantly questioning my life choices and existences that its like damn, it scares me how this change as we are not in school anymore. Edit: One thing I learned as an adult is that nothing makes sense and that we should go with the flow, its crazy how one moment I was in school the next I am an adult with a job its crazy. I have been doing things that make me happy and also trying to better myself as I get older.
Definitely not your fault, try looking at the bigger picture. Only dead fish go with the flow, things do make sense. You're just not taught about it. Learn about the systems we all live under. Learn about different social classes 😅. It doesn't have to be this way. Some are definitely benefiting, do we matter? What about everyone else? Don't they matter? Learning sociology / philosophy can really help you understand better. You're not alone, I see my younger self in your comment. Best wishes fellow human
Your rants genuinely make me feel a sense of happiness and bring me back to myself. I really appreciate your videos, thank you for being so genuine and putting out your positive energy 🫶
Alex, teeming with existential angst, yet again. Buddhists have an understanding of balance rooted in detachment, letting go of material things, letting go of labels past and present, letting go of identifiers we cling to, including the noise of thoughts as a preliminary step to "enlightenment."
@@joelharris4399 Also letting go for the desire of enlightenment too, as that is also a sort of attachment. It is an unnerving and never ending journey to figuring out just how one does that.
Great topic! I always feel more introspective this time of year. Trying to find that balance of slowing down while not letting myself ruminate too much
this is one of the best videos i've ever saw, not just saying it for the sake of saying it, i just really liked it and it meant something to me, which doesn't happen very often. thank you for that
We are all fulfilling our meaning. Some people may look like they’re succeeding more than others but we are all succeeding. Bottom line is we will all be dead and nobody will remember anything.
Calm, bright, witty and f-word respectful. That's you. I'm grateful for your lines of reminding thoughts. It's good sometimes to hear it from afar. Makes the one's resembling here fresh and new. Many times we block our own thoughts due to life 's noise. You break the noise. I can hear the music. Hope you have a great day too!🙂
Just keep it moving. That’s how I go through life, with ups or downs. I just ‘Keep it moving’. Nothing more to be done, do what you can and enjoy what you got. Hope you guys all find peace and live a great life.
Uggh i feel the same way sometimes,like im trying to start my own clothing brand,sometimes i just stare at the wall like why am i really doing this,and do i really want to do it.
The world is currently burning down around me and I don't know if I'll have a job to go to come Monday, but I am getting closer to my next video being done. So I got that going for me, which is nice.
As an INTP, I too am always asking WHY! But, the difference is, I'm asking the WHY about how things work, how to improve things. More mechanical, than emotional, since I'm fairly emotionally clueless. I know some INTP's can be very philosophical, but I'm more concerned with things that can possibly have some control over. I also have a fairly nihilistic view of the universe, so why worry about stuff that is beyond my control? It's very interesting how everyone has a difference view of themselves, others, and the world around us. But some of us try to keep that sphere of influence small enough to not lose ourselves with things that cannot be controlled. My view is probably a result of being married for 32 years to a narcissitic woman who thinks she should control everything and everyone. I do what I can to stay outside of her sphere, and keep control of myself and my sanity, as simple as I might be.
Interesting to know you’re an INTP, as I am an INFJ. My Introverted Intuition takes me to places I can’t quite grasp. There’s a world of patterns that exist and my job is to make sense of them all. Will I succeed? I’m not entirely too sure. You’re right how it’s interesting that people are so vastly different. And we’re all trying our best to
@@AnLittleAlex Look up Personality Junkie. He's an INTP. He's written a couple of great books on Typing and the INTP. But, his wife in an INFJ. They've also written a book on the INFJ, which I haven't read, but I assume is also great. And the website is a Highly Recommended resource on all things MBTI! From what I've read, the INFJ is a very puzzling type, both to others and themselves. Which would explain all of your confusion of what you're doing, or where you're going.

You are an awesome genuine person you are always interesting love your videos life never really makes sense. Weas human beings just try to make whatever sense of life
You can’t make sense of it all because it’s all unintelligent design. Humans have optimism bias and are constantly running away from the reality which is, your parents sentenced you to death. That why you’re here. This is not a Disney movie, this is a nightmare
@@juicedope2669 nope. 1. I didn’t ban u, 2. you deserve no credit because I didn’t steal anything you said and this topic wasn’t inspired by you. 3. You’ve been disrespectful in streams so I might keep you banned.
Can we really do anything we want? Some people have different starting points. This video isn't very deep. More of just a positive influence. I would look forwards traditional education. Once you understand better you can then help us change the world.
@@mattcbo You’re right, many have different starting points. We can discuss the notion of free-will all we want, and whether that exists or not. We can discuss how the circumstances that we are born under affects us in a variety of different ways. Or how it doesn’t matter at all. My intention isn’t to be “deep” as deep to each person means and looks like different things. There is no point in ruminating on how the world has affected us, when all we have control over is what we can do in the moment. Whether you believe in that or not is a different story. My hope was just to provide a different perspective or a more approachable and hands on approach to dealing with anguish. I’m not here to act like I know more than anyone else, nor to look down on them. Seems like that’s a common thing amongst those who believe they know better. What is there to understand from traditional education that can help us change the world? I’m not sure what you mean.
