    We all go through tough times at some point or another. Maybe you’re going through one right now...
    For me, my rock bottom moment was when I got fired from Facebook back in 2006. Not only did I miss out on a $1B payout, but my entire identity was wrapped up in being a FB employee.
    I was depressed and angry for months, but looking back, it didn’t have to be that way.
    In this video, I want to share some tips you can use to get through hard times.

    Thank you Noah for being so real! You are a CEO, a multi millionaire, and you allow us to see you as a human. Not many people, especially in your position, would be willing to open up and talk about their vulnerabilities to millions of people like you do. I personally am thankful for that.

    I really needed this. Endlessly strolling on UA-cam feeling like a complete failure at 30 due to personal life issues and I come across this. Thank you, this has helped shifted my way of thinking from feeling sorry for myself to getting up and doing something about it. First time ever seeing your content but this single video made it worth to subscribe!

    Thanks for sharing your story, Noah! This resonates so much with me right now. I was recently fired because I simply couldn't handle everything going on. I stopped doing my work, then after being fired, I could barely hold together a daily routine. I fell into a really dark place of despair. I realized I've had unresolved trauma and depression for over a decade that I'm finally getting treated for. Medication has a made a world of difference. Ready to get back in the arena.

    Noah, thanks for putting this out here. This video and the one about facebook have changed my perspective on my current situation. I just got fired/sort of quit my job at a start up and this video really helped me get out of a dark place. Really appreciate it

    This was a great video! Esp the part about writing your book and the uncertain feelings that come with that. I wrote a couple of books because I also was going through a lot and wanted to document what I was learning and just try to maybe help others. I felt conflicted about it years later but you made me feel like it was OK to do it for me! Thank you! :)))

  • @LucasTPate

    Really appreciated this video Noah! I think this is a really relatable experience for sooo many of us, and it doesn’t get enough discussion. It amazes me how similar your experience was to mine after I got fired from my “dream” job at the age of 29. It has really shaped me (even though there were years of serious depression/anxiety). We often tie a lot of our personal identity to our jobs (at least I did) and it can be really tough when you feel like that identity has been taken from you. Thanks a million for sharing this.

    You are more than your highest Career position . You have multiple values and the most important is your value as a human being. The value of a important employee is secondary important, because it gives you external approval to be valuable and this will never satisfying. A deep understanding of your purpose will create an inner strength and connection to your roots as a human being. This makes the difference and will lead to happiness. All the best.
