What hit me hardest wasn’t the lessons themselves, but realizing how many of them I already knew—and still ignored. That gap between knowing and doing is terrifying.
The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck 👍
This 32 minutes felt like 5 min. Thank you for this.
“Pain has a shelf life, but we keep it refrigerated.” Bars my dude. Bars.
I’ve known the energy vampire one for a while but you put it into new perspective. You seriously only have a few hours of good energy each day. It’s a very limited resource
These videos bring me back to reality everytime I derail, everytime I try and control things.
I've been suffering since my best friend turned against me, my father when i was a child. All my life i searched for someone i could share love with, All my life i suffered a lot for people who never cared for me and for those i couldn't love anymore hurt even worse. but i found out that there is no point to be sad because; all your love you gave is all in you and never left! Nothing was lost, everything is part of life, it happened and the good parts are always better then the few bad. but most of all, everything you gave is inside you to be given to yourself now!

The hardest truth is that no one really cares
But personally, yes. Most of these are true. But ofc, they're not our “final truths” they're seasonal truths. Meaning, these hit differently depending on where you are in life. If we compress all of these beautiful thing, they will fall into I can say 5 core ideas. Pain & Control- Life is less about fixing everything, and more about not gripping too tightly. The more you try to control life, the more it controls your mood. Energy & Boundaries - Your energy is a currency. Not everyone deserves access to it. At this age, it is crucial because we are still learning who drains us and who helps us grow. Expectations & Comparison- Most suffering comes from the gap between reality and imagination. Not from reality itself. Identity & Change: NO ONE has a finished identity. Everyone is improvising. Adulthood is realizing that even the adults are just older versions of confused teenagers. Hahaha Last but not the least, Quiet peace.. Real peace feels.. boring. No drama, no proving. No audiences. And If I were to add some other truths that even I actually overlooked in MY life, is this: YOU DON'T NEED TO HEAL BEFORE YOU LIVE (you can be insecure, anxious, confused, and still build a life. Healing is not a prerequisite of movement. YOU WILL OUTGROW PEOPLE AND IT WILL HURT EVEN IF IT'S RIGHT. (Not everyone is meant to come with you. And that doesn't mean anyone failed. It just means paths diverge. YOU'RE ALLOWED TO WANT MORE WITHOUT HATING WHAT YOU HAVE. contentment and ambition can coexist. You can he grateful and hungry. YOUR PERSONALITY IS NOT YOUR DESTINY. (Being “like this” is not a life sentence. You are kore malleable than you think. MOST OF LIFE IS ORDINARY, AND THAT'S WHERE MEANING ACTUALLY LIVES. not in milestones. Not in highlights. Not in big moments. But in routines, small joys, quiet days, random conversations. THANKYOUWW!

You know what, a lot of this type of advice is in the bible
This hit hard. It’s not that life gets easier, we just get more honest about what matters, and brave enough to let go of what doesn’t.
