I’ve really been getting into listening to these raw, uncut video from people just sharing their thoughts. I really like the raw, uncut, not flashy videos. They feel more welcoming, and less in my face. And I think everyone has a story and lesson to share. Thanks for sharing yours.
God bless you, young man. You're finding wisdom and it doesn't matter if you're 34 or 134. Good for you! When you spoke of comparison, one quote that has helped me is a quote by Theodore Roosevelt: "Comparison is the thief of joy." and I truly believe that. If we are constantly looking at what we don't have compared to the other guy, we will NEVER find the elusive joy. Another thing that has helped me is asking myself (VERY OFTEN DURING THE DAY) - "Do I have ANY control over that (be it a person's reaction, a news story, politics, etc.)?" If the answer is no (which it is more often than not), then I say, "Okay... then the chips will fall as they will." That has also helped me. I look forward to hearing more from you! :)
I'm 27 and feel like i don't have a job that i care about and it is making my life feel not so nice sometimes. But i'm positive i will figure things out as time goes and it's great to hear you've gotten better

@@conversationswithyou5737 thank you brother!
@@jake_enslinyou’re welcome! Don’t stop. Keep sharing your story :)
Me too, I’d much rather real stuff than highly produced ‘entertainment’
I feel that too!

Thank you Ted! These are terrific words of wisdom. What a simple, but profound question to ask

Wow ya i can relate to that. I’ve changed careers 3-4 times so far. We all run our own race. No rush to figure it all out by any means!
Love this, Jake. Appreciate you sharing.
Thanks Jared! Very kind of you
Great points. Happiness is not the goal. Feeling all emotions intensely when they arise is the goal. That’s a rich life.
Ya I love that! Chasing perpetual happiness is just not possible. A rich life, that’s totally it. Thanks Thomas!
you are doing great 😊 keep it up!
Thank you! We all just gotta try our best!
Bro is handsome
My tired eyes first thing in the morning and crackly voice haha
