- Stamina is about overcoming.
Perseverance is about persistence.
delayed gratification is about pleasure, impulse control, and optimism/pessimism.

Everyone (and their dog) should be watching Professor Vaknin nowadays.
Unless their dog is a Narcissist...😂
@@breemorrison901 😂😂😂
I agree 😊
That should hit the spot for Mr vaknins narc side 😂
@@goofyahhh254Absolutely!
I've noticed that some determined and resilient people occasionally use drugs to quickly and reliably gain pleasure (in other words, they party hard) and then continue their difficult and lengthy work on implementing plans. I've always wondered how they don't become addicted. In light of this, it seems that in addition to determination and resilience, they simply have very good impulse control? Now that I think about it, they might all be a bit psychopathic as well :)
Sam sang for us 😊
Dr. Vanknin, this is very enlightening video. I've been ignorant and in denile for too many years. I wish I had access to this information back in high school.........I wish I could have been home schooled.
Vaknin.
Definitely another amazing video! one can also use it to reflect upon our own life
This is very helpful. Is there some content where you adress "silent social contracts" ?
How to learn to navigate them, how to resist them, etc
Thank you so much Dear Sam Vaknin❤
We are hard wired into addiction - (stimulus/response ??) - it seems - like monkeys?!? Thank you once again for your profound knowledge and your professional knowledge and your insight.
Professor Vaknin, do you know any resources for developing optism and trust in the world and its people? I would like to stop being pessimistic.
Lick the marshmallow.
I'm not Vaknin but I'm trying to establish some optimism within myself, and the starting point is to give room to people to be good (instead of bad) so in a sense, If you lick the marshmallow, it's likely ruined for the "expected bad person" to take it away instead of giving you another one; however it leaves you complaint to the test (you haven't eaten it) and open to earning additional one is the tester is truthful.
Building your strength, in spite of wrongdoers is what gives you optimism in the end. Being peaceful instead of harmless, in a nutshell, know who you are and act in your own interest with every action you take. It's a process, and a long one, but the payout is well worth it in the end. Right on this great topic, that would be perseverance/stamina. Good luck,🍀
When I was a child, I would have held onto the first marshmallow because I was given a job (don't eat marshmallow), and I would do my best to not let other people down. 😅
Recently, I think my world view might be more that we should all eat our marshmallows. 🙊
Very interesting
Dr. Vaknin, you had discussed in another of your videos how order & fairness are a fallacy; that the "agreement" we make with society in no way guarantees positive results in life.... sometimes people are punished unjustly, etc.
So, doesn't the Pessimist actually have a more acurate world view, ie., better reality testing than the Optimist? 🤔
I am a perennial pessimist, so I am biased.
Very interesting topic. Would you say that someone who doesn’t trust the world also does not trust themselves?
Yes. It is a projection.
@@samvaknin thanks for the reply.
Veracity
Now I want a marshmallow
Excellent topic, thank you!
Dr. Sam Vaknin , People can also become pessimists because of past experiences.don’t they? I mean like past evidence like true events of their life can also cause this.and i also think its okay if its not extreme but I think i am talking about me 😅.
Even if i get another marshmallow if i wait but why should i starve🥺
would the delayed gratification that is diminished in narcissism relate to a narrow domain that involve goal directed ness in the short term or long term from social pressures and being less sensitive to things like guild and shame? or is it across contexts
All-pervasive.
