"Disney's enemy is growing up." You just explained in one sentence why Disney's Star Wars has always been doomed. I love when theories make predictions to questions they were not necessarily designed to answer.
this quote is nice I like it, but I'm curious if you could explain a bit further what it means and its relation to the video (genuinely curious on your thoughts here)
@@RinValkyrin Swift playing victim ideological enemy to build her brand, cause you can't win over fans by force, you feed them a narrative of some form of injustice Like any activists spreading climate crisis propaganda to enrich their bank accounts, like climate activist Steven G. Minister of Environment in Canada to get his party into power to justify carbon tax, Canada to be the only country in the world to have a carbon tax on top of other taxes. Or how about men pretending to be women so they can play in women's sports, they couldn't outright say they are men being discriminated against, deception: I'm a women because I identify as a women and they get a vocal minority to support their nonsense or labelling on food like all natural, natural flavors, organic, plant based, low fat, if all this is so good for you why are there so many obese ppl in America? there are many things that are banned in Europe that are still in north America food, you can't force ppl to eat junk but you can deceive them into eating junk
Turns out my enemy is: hustle culture. The tireless energetic drain it imposes, the false dreams it dangles over peoples heads to keep them coming back, the false promise of better, the overworking, the sacrificed health and rest and time in leisure & play with loved ones, the way people dedicate their lives to being of service to the workforce only to spend much of their retirement in and out of hospital or even worse, 6 feet under without the chance to enjoy their “free” time. Arghhhhhh 😡
The is a good tool to help you get clear on your values. I don't particularly care about being magnetic but the opposite of things I hate is naturally the things I value most. So I'll be using this advice for that purpose.
Phahahah so Taylor made her whole career on "Im not like the other girls"?! All that while being pretty, skinny, white girl?! Thats some great branding and marketing I give her that.
@@crazyshiep4582 Can you describe me those "other girls" but dont mention anything about how they look. Just talk about their interests and hobbies and how they act. Lets see if you can came up with anything different that "Mean girl" stereotype hahah.
This is such a great nugget- I would say my enemy is anyone who gossips about someone with the intention of having them excluded or canceled, often with incomplete or untrue facts.
That happened to me in my old job a few months back. Led by a ringleader who was the queen of gossip, she turned everyone against me. She and I used to be « friends » or so I thought, and even went on holiday together once and I was very friendly with everyone else. They excluded me and stopped talking to me and then got others to think I was the one isolating myself from ALL of them. They were all older than me in their 40s. I didn’t react. Karma came when I was contacted for a new position in a more prestigious company in the same industry, with a higher pay. They were all flabbergasted when I quit. I did not give them the time of day and don’t intend to if I run into them ever again. And yes the ringleader was basically jealous of me, even though I wasn’t giving her anything to be jealous about and just being myself. She was talking about me behind my back, even to our boss and that isolation thing is the only thing that came up in my improvement areas during the quarterly evaluation lol that lady could say nothing bad about my job and was between a rock and a hard place when I quit 🤷🏾♀️ your enemies will make you stronger so thanks to them, my favourite haters 😘
Good video, but keep in mind the enemy is a narrative device. It's a trick of the manipulator to convince you that you are afraid of something. In a story the enemy is just an embodiment of the weakness of the protagonist. The Stoic/Buddhist practice is to deal with an enemy, but not let them change who you are or what you do. Being too focused on an enemy gives that negative person a degree of control over your life. Not good. I had a horrible boss who wasn't even that good at back stabbing. One day I had the idea, instead of fighting his war -- and becoming like him -- I will, every week do something amazing. I'm sure Taylor Swift had a moment like that because she's the very definition of amazing. But I'm not a fan. I'm an old guy still listening to Joni Mitchell. No problem. I have deep respect for the community Swift's built with her fans. Until this video I didn't know how critical to her narrative were the mean girls, but instinctively I did. So well Done Taylor Swift. Mostly what I get from her is she's a woman with a notebook writing poetry, struggling with the things all women struggle with. Her challenge is as it is to all of us, with herself. But we all have some chip on our shoulder from past ill treatment. I'm almost 70 - it's still there. Almost everyday there's at least the echo of 'Oh yeah, I'll show them....' But I use it to push myself forward. Even if I had the chance I wouldn't seek out those who've wounded me and rub their noses in it. I wouldn't do that to anyone. It's cruel and a waste of time. Leo Koetke the guitarist song writer has a piece, "I guess I owe it all to Pamela Brown" because she fell in love with a guy who had a pick up truck, instead of him. His disappointment and jealousy went into his music. Just having the thought, what amazing thing am I going to do this week? Gets me motivated and gets something done. The downside? When any of us change for the better in some remarkable or different way, often the people in our lives who are used to us being a certain way can feel angry, hostile to the new changes. Often they reject us. We've upset the family, community, group....

Ok I genuinely just got it. I've always avoided the concept of an enemy - it's just not a thought I want to entertain. But your explanation made me see it in a new way. THX
This was insightful. I personally don’t wanna have enemies. I am all for integrating all parts of myself (internally and externally) because we are all One . Even the part that wants to have a enemy:)
Hi friend, i would encourage some more introspection about this. owning this energy in thyself is indeed an important part of that process, consider the zodiacal narrative of the 7th house, Libra, which does include how we relate to "other", enemies being included. it's not about whether you have them or not, but how you relate to them. blessings on your journey of self-discovery.
my enemy is anyone who chooses not to be kind - being kind is actually so easy so when people choose not to be nice, it INFURIATES ME but also ironic because it makes me want to do extremely unkind things to them
Have you considered that it actually might be a psychological trauma that you’re prolbably dealing with. Or a blockage. Idk how to say this but somebody probably shamed you into mentality of needing to be kind all the time and now you want to punish anybody who isn’t. Because you were punished and this is cyclical. It’s just usually this way, I mean I had and probably have this type of thought process rnow. It’s not bad but good to know where it’s coming from since it puts you in the same frame of always needing to be kind when in reality sometimes you just can’t.
@@dariazhempalukh this is exactly how it was for me. I was shamed for being kind all the time because I was told it was bad to be rude etc and people wouldn't like me. I forced myself to be kind even when I didn't want to be. And ironically started being "unkind" to people who are mean and angry because then I could justify my anger and rage towards them
@@thesevenkingswelove9554 it’s good that you’ve noticed that. Now you can work on being less harsh with yourself abt it and be more non reactive about others behaviour.
Be kind to yourself, don’t take projections personally, if you’re kind to manipulative people no bueno. They need to be exposed there is no room for play pretend there. It’s dog eats dog out there especially work. Be true to yourself and put people where they belong.
Awesome video, I watched your video about contradiction as well. The ego loves its identity, it makes it seem alive. Hate and demonisation is how we define our ego and compartmentalise our love. Soon enough we conflate ourselves with it. But increasing self awareness and awareness of what you dislike and like can be very helpful especially compared to staying ignorant of the ego or even worse demonising it. All these good and bad value judgements are ends to means and as long as we have a body and live in a dualistic world it can’t be bypassed. I guess understanding your intentions and keep being aware of where you’re coming from is what matters.
Who would've thought that polarization would be magnetic, crazy. This whole humanity enterprise is about clearing the entropy of life. Trying to order the chaos, which by it's very nature, cannot be done, but it's fun to try regardless. So to achieve success you must find an area of reality which connects with a large group of people and then help them to order the chaos present in said area.
Mine has to be people who press the pedestrian crossing button more than once. They must be thinking the more they press it, the quicker it will change. As if pressing it 20 times makes it think there's a crowd of people so it needs to change quicker. But no, pressing it once sends a signal that someone is waiting. Pressing it more than once does nothing. In cities they're usually fake and literally do nothing at all. They call them "placebo buttons" because for some weird reason people can't stop themselves pressing it a hundred times
Worse are those people who press the button without looking if there are any cars going past and then cross the road when they notice that there aren't any, thereby forcing cars to stop with no one crossing the road.
Yes this helped me with my studies. Like, for me it is to beat those who are already in the field and underestimate the first generation learners. I like when I achieve success and beat people who have better guidance and resources than me. Basically, I hate nepostism! A teacher ridiculed me for choosing science stream for higher studies, as I had no one in my family to help me with it. Now, I'm about to enter into medical field. I always remember his smirk!
They're taking advantage of several biases here. Number 1 the brain responds disproportionately to negative events. Number 2 people will band together more quickly when facing a common enemy. Number 3 people tend to seek out information that confirms what they already believe. Number 4 people will do more to avoid a loss then to pursue a gain. It looks like Taylor's handlers have carefully crafted her identity so that it triggers all of these unconscious biases. The internet algorithm's have mastered this too. They have a myriad of ways to exploit and amplify these biases. It's like the inventors of these algorithms have stated. "We can't resist our own creation"
They have been practicing exactly this in the media for decades. They have plenty experience. Music, movies, TV show, news all use psychological tactics.
Edward Bernays pioneered modern propaganda which used several psychological tactics. Very similar to what she is talking about in the video. I hate propaganda. So I guess he's the grandaddy of my enemy.
Love this. This is something I have often thought about... or rather "thought around" because I couldn't quite put my finger on, tap into it's pulse, despite my restless ruminating. Yet not only have you found it, captured this zeitgeist like a firefly in a bottle, you have also articulated it in a simplified form that's easy to process. Not only that, you've even figured out to reverse engineer an authentic version for oneself. I love that idea of constructing almost a reverse gratitude list with an itemization of dislikes and hates to figure out what you care about in a genuine way.
It's interesting the entire video I thought for sure one name would come up who believe demonstrates this concept more than any of the names included: Kanye West. He is the definition of a personal brand, George Bush, hurricane Katrina, Taylor Swift, 50 cent, Obama, Nike, Adidas, gap, Drake, the karadashians and so many other names have all been at one time or another enemies of Ye and his cultural significance is still growing along with the list of enemies. The difference I think between taylor swift and Kanye is that ye's brand truly is Kanye where taylor swifts brand like you said is about connecting with the insecurities of her audience. But the reality is taylor is THE cool girl now, and Kanye is still Kanye.
While I'm not a fan of Taylor Swift, what really puts me off are the fans. They just look freakin craycray. Like I've seen them online gang up on anyone saying anything they perceive is a criticism on Taylor.
Swifty here, The fanbase is unhinged, I’ll give you that. But this video makes me understand why. It’s radical stance against bullying. They’re seeing any criticism as micro aggressions 😂
I’ve never hated anyone, real or fictional, the way I hate Dolores Umbridge. Makes my skin crawl like no other! Guess your theory is right, our mutual hate for a shared enemy made me relate to you & like this video instantly.
Great video and super informative, thank you! One thing: I think the word 'enemy' is quite intense, as I don't think I genuinely hate anything (but of course do have strong disliking for). Maybe 'antithesis' suits me better.
Love your videos and perspective on things. Very helpful and I agree on this and the concept of finding ideological alignment to create belonging. Interestingly, I've never bought the authenticity of Taylor's narrative about being unpopular though. Not at the beginning , definitely not now.
It's not just the enemy, it's something adversarial preventing a like minded group from advancing, and this is a slam dunk sell because typically all eyes are on the gold medalist, but the gold medalist does not do a disproportionately larger amount of common good than silver and below, let alone silver and below unified to a common goal. Almost all of the work done to any end is done by silver and below, not the sole gold medalist, and it is very easy to ply the resentment for never getting recognition that everyone else has because well, if we're being honest about the output, they deserve more of the gratitude, not less. When the amount of attention shifts toward the top dog too much, it is like a rubber band stretched tight, and it can snap or fly back the other way at a moments notice.
Had this moment today in Uni. Saw my ex, hated on her in secret with my new classmates that I know for ½ week (so not really a deep bond) and a girl that didn't even know me, they started hating on her too, for no fucking reason, and we instantly all bonded by being evil together.
So glad that I have found you and this super insightful video! I approached a lot of branding for my design clients with only the hero part being the main focus but never really saw the potential in an “enemy” or how I would phrase it: The one thing you want to change in the world more than anything because you have likely felt the negative impact. „Be the change you want to see in the world“ (by Ghandi) never gets old! Love your perspective and style - deserves more than a thumbs up ✨

I don't know much about Taylor swift. She seems like the cool girl based what i see. Dating the football star, exclusive events and parties, very popular. I guess she's living the life shes always wanted since back as an underdog stage.
If you watched Grease then in the midst of over sexualized pink ladies Taylor is the goody two shoes Sandy, and all the girls hate that. She’s only considered cool now because people underestimated her “kid” audience and how their loyalty helped her become the most successful. And money makes you the coolest.
With all the talk of Swift, we can't forget to mention one of her best enemies. He captured the idea of this video in one line: "Everything I'm not made me everything I am." -Kanye West
Gotta watch out for those giant chicken dinosaurs. but for real, very high quality work here and I super appreciate the Journaling prompt. somebody once said, if you have no enemies, you're not in the Arena.
Everything you said is also the description of how cults and heavy manipulation work. EVERYONE, no matter how intelligent, is subject to heavy manipulation.
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯 This can NOT be understated. The entire industry thrives on feeding into the fanatical impulses of manic personalities, especially when they start ramping up into a manic episode. It’s predatory and gross.
So far you've had two genius intuitions regarding social influence, but I was wondering if you had any insights on how to build real self-worth and self-esteem, and by that I mean self-assuredness, the kind of “inner resilience” that's not tied to external validation, which I identify as a “state of being”. I ask this because self-assuredness is perceived by others by aura/energy alone. If I act social and confident, people are still gonna instinctively detect the low self-worth underneath. For example, there's this girl I know who has admitted to being reclusive in her teens but after working on herself she's social, outspoken and has made many friends. There is one issue though: despite her social and assertive demeanor, I can sorta feel on an instinctual level that she has zero self-worth, so she still has worked on the external but still hasn't done the inner working. I've been wondering for quite some time on how to achieve that self-assuredness that in turn changes also your aura that people still perceive, but I'm kinda stuck. I know that self-assuredness comes from an inner acceptance of who you are paired with an inner knowing of your worth regardless of external standards, but see, I “know it” rationally, but not in my heart, therefore it does nothing to achieve that change of aura that everyone can detect. How you do start to truly feel self-assured on a deeper level? How do you make it click?
You need to follow your own moral code and values, if you follow that you'll also have "enemies" and the self-assuredness, and you'll be magnetic to does who resonate with your values
And what exactly do you think you are achieving this by posting this comment? Becoming one of them! "When we deal with monsters, we shall be careful about not becoming s monster ourselves"

@@dariazhempalukh this is exactly how it was for me. I was shamed for being kind all the time because I was told it was bad to be rude etc and people wouldn't like me. I forced myself to be kind even when I didn't want to be. And ironically started being "unkind" to people who are mean and angry because then I could justify my anger and rage towards them
@@thesevenkingswelove9554 it’s good that you’ve noticed that. Now you can work on being less harsh with yourself abt it and be more non reactive about others behaviour.
Be kind to yourself, don’t take projections personally, if you’re kind to manipulative people no bueno. They need to be exposed there is no room for play pretend there. It’s dog eats dog out there especially work. Be true to yourself and put people where they belong.
Awesome video, I watched your video about contradiction as well.
The ego loves its identity, it makes it seem alive. Hate and demonisation is how we define our ego and compartmentalise our love. Soon enough we conflate ourselves with it. But increasing self awareness and awareness of what you dislike and like can be very helpful especially compared to staying ignorant of the ego or even worse demonising it. All these good and bad value judgements are ends to means and as long as we have a body and live in a dualistic world it can’t be bypassed. I guess understanding your intentions and keep being aware of where you’re coming from is what matters.
Great video! I can’t wait to see this channel blow up.
This is pure content (a very deadly weapon if used properly) Thank you!
Never thought about this effec before! Thanks for sharing!😊
Who would've thought that polarization would be magnetic, crazy. This whole humanity enterprise is about clearing the entropy of life. Trying to order the chaos, which by it's very nature, cannot be done, but it's fun to try regardless. So to achieve success you must find an area of reality which connects with a large group of people and then help them to order the chaos present in said area.
This is genious and so intuitively true, I hate that I haven't realised this by myself a long ago. Thanks for making it so obvious.
So basically, stand for something and let others know it. Because if you stand "for" one thing you invariably stand "against" another thing. 🤔
This is really sharp!!! How do this not have more view?!
Mine has to be people who press the pedestrian crossing button more than once. They must be thinking the more they press it, the quicker it will change. As if pressing it 20 times makes it think there's a crowd of people so it needs to change quicker. But no, pressing it once sends a signal that someone is waiting. Pressing it more than once does nothing. In cities they're usually fake and literally do nothing at all. They call them "placebo buttons" because for some weird reason people can't stop themselves pressing it a hundred times
Worse are those people who press the button without looking if there are any cars going past and then cross the road when they notice that there aren't any, thereby forcing cars to stop with no one crossing the road.
Why is this video HDR!? I got blasted with high brightness at night 😢
This is really brilliant. And very well presented. Great work!
Clear, engaging, and educational . . . I look forward to seeing more of your videos. Thank you!
Yes this helped me with my studies. Like, for me it is to beat those who are already in the field and underestimate the first generation learners. I like when I achieve success and beat people who have better guidance and resources than me. Basically, I hate nepostism! A teacher ridiculed me for choosing science stream for higher studies, as I had no one in my family to help me with it. Now, I'm about to enter into medical field. I always remember his smirk!
They're taking advantage of several biases here. Number 1 the brain responds disproportionately to negative events. Number 2 people will band together more quickly when facing a common enemy. Number 3 people tend to seek out information that confirms what they already believe. Number 4 people will do more to avoid a loss then to pursue a gain. It looks like Taylor's handlers have carefully crafted her identity so that it triggers all of these unconscious biases. The internet algorithm's have mastered this too. They have a myriad of ways to exploit and amplify these biases. It's like the inventors of these algorithms have stated. "We can't resist our own creation"
They have been practicing exactly this in the media for decades. They have plenty experience. Music, movies, TV show, news all use psychological tactics.
Edward Bernays pioneered modern propaganda which used several psychological tactics. Very similar to what she is talking about in the video.
I hate propaganda. So I guess he's the grandaddy of my enemy.
i love your page, i'm so glad the algorithm brought me here.
Dude this is awesome, I can see your channel blowing up in the near future
Thank you! I appreciate that a lot!
Love this. This is something I have often thought about... or rather "thought around" because I couldn't quite put my finger on, tap into it's pulse, despite my restless ruminating. Yet not only have you found it, captured this zeitgeist like a firefly in a bottle, you have also articulated it in a simplified form that's easy to process. Not only that, you've even figured out to reverse engineer an authentic version for oneself. I love that idea of constructing almost a reverse gratitude list with an itemization of dislikes and hates to figure out what you care about in a genuine way.
Focusing on Hate is powerful, but ultimately flawed and misguided
Phenomenal video! Wooow! Also side note your eyes are stunning :)
It's interesting the entire video I thought for sure one name would come up who believe demonstrates this concept more than any of the names included: Kanye West. He is the definition of a personal brand, George Bush, hurricane Katrina, Taylor Swift, 50 cent, Obama, Nike, Adidas, gap, Drake, the karadashians and so many other names have all been at one time or another enemies of Ye and his cultural significance is still growing along with the list of enemies. The difference I think between taylor swift and Kanye is that ye's brand truly is Kanye where taylor swifts brand like you said is about connecting with the insecurities of her audience. But the reality is taylor is THE cool girl now, and Kanye is still Kanye.
Thanks! I can really use this - I suppose in anyone's narrative there are instances that help us identify our values and what to fight for. Cheers.
While I'm not a fan of Taylor Swift, what really puts me off are the fans. They just look freakin craycray. Like I've seen them online gang up on anyone saying anything they perceive is a criticism on Taylor.
Swifty here, The fanbase is unhinged, I’ll give you that.
But this video makes me understand why.
It’s radical stance against bullying. They’re seeing any criticism as micro aggressions 😂
Omg, that was sooooooo good. I loved this lesson and you did it so well. Thank you! "Subscribed"!!!
I’ve never hated anyone, real or fictional, the way I hate Dolores Umbridge. Makes my skin crawl like no other! Guess your theory is right, our mutual hate for a shared enemy made me relate to you & like this video instantly.
Great video and super informative, thank you! One thing: I think the word 'enemy' is quite intense, as I don't think I genuinely hate anything (but of course do have strong disliking for). Maybe 'antithesis' suits me better.
Also just subbed when looking at your channel: your content seems right up my street :).
or maybe your "unbearable" things
Love your videos and perspective on things. Very helpful and I agree on this and the concept of finding ideological alignment to create belonging. Interestingly, I've never bought the authenticity of Taylor's narrative about being unpopular though. Not at the beginning , definitely not now.
This is amazing. Just the video I needed to validate my brand approach.
Thank you, this was well put together, point taken, kudos.
It's not just the enemy, it's something adversarial preventing a like minded group from advancing, and this is a slam dunk sell because typically all eyes are on the gold medalist, but the gold medalist does not do a disproportionately larger amount of common good than silver and below, let alone silver and below unified to a common goal. Almost all of the work done to any end is done by silver and below, not the sole gold medalist, and it is very easy to ply the resentment for never getting recognition that everyone else has because well, if we're being honest about the output, they deserve more of the gratitude, not less. When the amount of attention shifts toward the top dog too much, it is like a rubber band stretched tight, and it can snap or fly back the other way at a moments notice.
Lies and deception thats what boils my blood. Great video btw.
Had this moment today in Uni. Saw my ex, hated on her in secret with my new classmates that I know for ½ week (so not really a deep bond) and a girl that didn't even know me, they started hating on her too, for no fucking reason, and we instantly all bonded by being evil together.
So glad that I have found you and this super insightful video! I approached a lot of branding for my design clients with only the hero part being the main focus but never really saw the potential in an “enemy” or how I would phrase it: The one thing you want to change in the world more than anything because you have likely felt the negative impact. „Be the change you want to see in the world“ (by Ghandi) never gets old!
Love your perspective and style - deserves more than a thumbs up ✨
I hate wireless earphones, fake positivity, also pessimism and self help gurus
Oh it works
Tony Robbins wrote this great book that can help you with that!!11
Wireless earphones?
@@cachalotreal they suck
Ear/head phones if it ain't wired I ain't buying 👍
I'd try cochlear implants but you'll have to cut them out when you go pschizo from gov tracking or the UA-cam ads don't stop to let you sleep. No! I don't want to be a tax advisor making less than 180k per year
This video is awesome and intuitive. Great work
Tremendous!! This has hit home so hard. Big thanks!!
As if you just started these. You’re honestly inspiring
Keep going my friend you are one of the good ones ❤
I don't know much about Taylor swift. She seems like the cool girl based what i see. Dating the football star, exclusive events and parties, very popular. I guess she's living the life shes always wanted since back as an underdog stage.
If you watched Grease then in the midst of over sexualized pink ladies Taylor is the goody two shoes Sandy, and all the girls hate that. She’s only considered cool now because people underestimated her “kid” audience and how their loyalty helped her become the most successful. And money makes you the coolest.
Erica YOU are very magnetic!
Thank you beautiful Lady, this video came from nowhere and it was exactly what i was looking for!
With all the talk of Swift, we can't forget to mention one of her best enemies. He captured the idea of this video in one line:
"Everything I'm not made me everything I am." -Kanye West
this content is gold
Ight im subscribin’.. this is pure gold.
Ya’ better remember me ma’e cause you gonna get Famouuuuussss
So glad I clicked on this. You're awesome. Now to binge the rest of your channel...
I'd not heard of Evolutionary Lag before, super interesting.
Gotta watch out for those giant chicken dinosaurs.
but for real, very high quality work here and I super appreciate the Journaling prompt.
somebody once said, if you have no enemies, you're not in the Arena.
Thank you so much!!! This feels like a missing link, another contrast to make my story pop!
First-time viewer ~ you’re awesome! Great video/advice! Look forward to your next one.
Everything you said is also the description of how cults and heavy manipulation work. EVERYONE, no matter how intelligent, is subject to heavy manipulation.
Really interesting analysis. Thank you!
Great video!! Might help people think critically
It’s not magnetism, it’s that people who find other people magnetic, in a hysterical manner, are seriously psychologically unbalanced.
Most of the human population is psychologically unbalanced. Mental problems are much more prevalent than most people believe.
Most of the planet is psychologically unbalanced. Mental issues are much more common than most people believe.
💯😂😂😂

This can NOT be understated. The entire industry thrives on feeding into the fanatical impulses of manic personalities, especially when they start ramping up into a manic episode. It’s predatory and gross.
@@SoundBoss5150 Wow, I had never thought of it that way, this is so true :oo
So good!!! Learning so much from you 🫡 thank you for uploading!
heyyyy wow! I appreciate that. thank you so much for watching. love your videos
I've always just viewed Taylor Swift as a mean girl herself.
Wow. An Avatar fan. I didn’t know those existed. Fantastic video, thank you!
So far you've had two genius intuitions regarding social influence, but I was wondering if you had any insights on how to build real self-worth and self-esteem, and by that I mean self-assuredness, the kind of “inner resilience” that's not tied to external validation, which I identify as a “state of being”.
I ask this because self-assuredness is perceived by others by aura/energy alone. If I act social and confident, people are still gonna instinctively detect the low self-worth underneath. For example, there's this girl I know who has admitted to being reclusive in her teens but after working on herself she's social, outspoken and has made many friends. There is one issue though: despite her social and assertive demeanor, I can sorta feel on an instinctual level that she has zero self-worth, so she still has worked on the external but still hasn't done the inner working.
I've been wondering for quite some time on how to achieve that self-assuredness that in turn changes also your aura that people still perceive, but I'm kinda stuck. I know that self-assuredness comes from an inner acceptance of who you are paired with an inner knowing of your worth regardless of external standards, but see, I “know it” rationally, but not in my heart, therefore it does nothing to achieve that change of aura that everyone can detect. How you do start to truly feel self-assured on a deeper level? How do you make it click?
You need to follow your own moral code and values, if you follow that you'll also have "enemies" and the self-assuredness, and you'll be magnetic to does who resonate with your values
My "enemy" is precisely this type of people who unite *against* something instead of uniting *for* what they want.
Yeah! Let’s unite against those people who- wait…
And what exactly do you think you are achieving this by posting this comment?
Becoming one of them!
"When we deal with monsters, we shall be careful about not becoming s monster ourselves"
This video is making me wonder if Avatar credits Ursula K. Leguins "The Word For World Is Forest". Short story. F%$king legendary. Pretty similar, pretty different. Bora Chung's newest work is tops for the subject as well. It is entitled, "Your Utopia".
I hated the hair from the haircut getting in shirt so much I stopped cutting my hair and hate the the long hair touching my body that it’s almost always in a bun and I am a man. A man that wears his hair in a bun and drives a Subaru Outback. I am willing to be teased about my car and my hair but you never see me unable to get to my destination because of weather! 😂
You’re legitimately one of the funniest woman I’ve ever come across! A lot of female comedians seem try-hard but it seems really natural to you. Not only that, your content is gold. You get a sub from me! Thanks for a great (and very funny video) 😊
Girl who tf are you? You show up here with 3.8k subs and drop the sickest, well reflected video essay? That was great. Do you write this yourself?
This is great stuff! Very concise
Hahaha, fun informative and genuine narration.. You just gained a new subscriber. Wish I could subscribe twice. Authooh, Authoritey, authoritaay, authori- fck no! Authoritarian, fck yes!
You are an amazing teacher! Funny, inspiring and original👏 Can’t wait for the next video!
I hate apathy, exploitation, and the oppression of potential
This video is awesooooome!!!!
5:45 keep the cave lights on 😂
Great video!
This was excellent! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Man... I have loved your content for a while. The end of this one was fire.
Fav edgy White Guy movie - Momento
A friend of mine ADORES Sucker Punch believing it to by some feminist masterpiece and not waifu nuts coded version of what they want enslaved feminism to be for them.
Sucker Punch sucks and you could do a whole video on this topic with sucker punch as the emphasis. "If you stand for everything, you'll fall for anything..."
this is great! I love the vídeo, hope you keep posting more
Inertia, Deception, Being Boxed in
I really love your videos!
Quick question: what kind of mic are you using for this good audio quality?🤗
@@claudiiiiiiii thank you!!! It’s the dji mic duo :) ❤️
@theoryofone thankyou 🥰
Great video!! I never subscribed right away after 1st video on a fairly new channel! Thank you for sharing❤
I have to ask: What is your enemy?
I love cm punk for how he stands against people who thought he was not a main event guy.!
Nice, my enemy is bad sound quality and people who use the volume knob to turn the music so low you can not even hear it anymore when the best part comes on.
Whats her colour or shade ? I really like it
Girl! You're beautiful and smart. I know that smart people don't find much happiness in life especially when in addition you're attracting jealousy from others because you had "the advantage of good looks" as well.
This video was very valuable to me & will be very valuable for the rest of my life. I pray that you find something far far better than and far more valuable that happiness, I pray that you find Peace of mind in every present moment wherever you are, whoever you're with.
Pro tip : Don't include a lot of people into your life to ensure peace of mind. All the best on your journey. Lots of love to you.
can you list the books that are sitting behind you on the bookshelf.
With that video, you just defeated my enemy: vagueness
Wow so true. Funny how this popped up after I watched the Rum Diary last night, a perfect case in point. Plus how I rebelled against lock downs etc brought me into a mad community. Be careful how you hate ;)
Great insights ✌️
