If you think you hit rock bottom and feel worthless, then start by closing all your social media accounts. Create an isolation bubble in which you do the things you enjoy doing. Nobody needs to know what you do, and you don't need to know what others do. You are not missing anything. In my isolation bubble, I read books that I love, hiked in the mountains, kayaked in the ocean, played video games, and cuddled with my pets while binge-watching series. Only solo activities. I refrained from any social interaction. It took many months until I was ready to be virtually social again. When I got back to social media, it felt so different. I was not a part of it anymore. I didn't want to post anything, and I wasn't curious to check what others were doing. It was like someone gave up his years of smoking addiction and when he lighted his first cigarette after months of refrain, he realized that it felt disgusting and threw it away immediately. When you feel worthless, it actually means you think you feel worthless "compared to others." If you remove that comparison factor from your life, I guarantee you that you will be the happiest person in the world.

I’ve told them no, I want to enjoy the life I wasn’t able to enjoy while working +9 hours a day and I’ve been playing lots of video games, sleeping more, doing yoga, a lot of amazing things. It is true in today’s society you cannot live without any money at all.

@@itzajdmtingI resonate with this comment on a very deep level. I thought becoming a real man, as in being stalwart, accountable, confident, polite and honest would help me be more attractive and a “high value” man. I delved DEEP into myself, held myself accountable, individuated myself , accepted my flaws, read Eastern and western philosophy deeply, developed wisdom to be useful to myself and others. But then I put myself out in the world and saw that TRULY none of that gets you anywhere. ALL of my acquaintances who lied the best , pursued material gain, did not develop a individual personality, did not become emotionally intelligent or mature, ALL did better in the social game than I did and did just as well as I did in the economic game, in fact if any of those vapid materialistic people had a friend or family member in a high position, they fit an express pass to more economic success. That economic success translates to them getting better dating choices, better housing options , etc. lol it’s wild that being a developed grown adult does not require material gain at all but material without any self development can be attained extremely easy, you just need to learn how to fake it. If a person knows how to pretend to be developed on the surface level , that is enough. So I see that people figure, why face the harsh reality of my own flaws if all I have to do is lie, fake it and pretend and I can be rewarded, why care about being a better person if “grinding” to make money and get ahead is the key to accessing attractive partners, successful friends and a better level of living? lol I can’t blame them but the fact remains, most developed adults are punished for their emotional intelligence and often have to watch those with vapid minds , be rewarded in this system. A well developed person does benefit from their development and we can be successful too but trying to reach the level you need to be , to be truly comfortable and considered “high value” is oftentimes locked behind certain social games and status quo that seems to reward the biggest bag of dirt that can appear to be something else well enough to trick the social game.

"Productive" can mean so many things. Some people are stuck in linear patterns which solely revolve around MONEY. But when you think about it, that's the biggest facade ever.

I don't really care about actually making a difference to anyone or anything; I just want the cash". And if that's the case, it's MUCH more lucrative to be a criminal. Just STEAL whatever ya like. After all, if all ya want is coin, you can simply plan one giant score, grab it, and bail. You'd get what "you wanted", right? Success! Wealth is equivalent to success for some people. Even if it was never truly earned.

Plus you're just debasing them to be shiny trophies that exist merely to boost your ego Life is about experiencing being alive and enjoying the sinple joys of being alive Feel the wind on your face Walk on the sand Enjoy your favourite meal Take pleasure from the gift of pure being

Its never asked again. I also say I'm disabled but that doesn't mean I don't deserve a life of value, love and meaning. You have value and worth and how you live is for you to live and no one else.

I had many years of suffering in various ways...homelessness, addiction, toxic relationships(including with myself), and ran from facing myself through these and other outlets like working ridiculous amounts of hours to distract from facing myself. Until I learned about narcissistic personalities, both through experience and education, and more about myself... the likes and dislikes and the value in every experience by being present in that moment, and had my entire reality upended I was not facing myself. I felt forced to by the last relationship if only to seperate my being from what I became during the time with my ex and leading to that relationship. Things such as "why am I here?", "who am I, really?", "how did I get here?", "what was my role?"... which was difficult but, through meditation, honest self-reflection, philosophical exploration, etc. I find myself in a new reality today that lies just beneath the surface, the WHY behind the WHAT is how I understand it. The interesting thing is that most of the insights came to me, not by my effort intentionally. That is part of what changes when you sit with self honestly for me.

I failed an important exam (I'm 17) and I got this today I felt very bad about myself. Seeing other people of my age qualifying the exam with a great score where on the other hand I'm here preparing for another attempt. But as i watched and absorbed the video i realized how greatly the students who qualify this exam are treated and are seen as intelligent and respectable although they could be lacking values that makes us humans. So on the basis of this examination the society might view them as they are the "cream" of the society. It has become a race where every students wants to overshine you in a way that might use some self serving purposes and lies. The place where i go to study (for preparing the exam) there everybody looks so robotic, everyone competing other and the need to overshine. Im not saying its bad but i prefer healthy competition where everyone interacts with no self serving purpose. I made some mistakes, i accepted them and i am working on it so that i can qualify this time.

i thought at some point it'd make it more clear WHY achievement tunnel vision is harmful. 1. Its definition is a shifting goal-post made by those who control the media (part democracy and part profit-ocracy). 2. The criteria for achievement is open-ended, but highly connotated toward luck-based outcomes like being born richer, having a highly-networked family, or having opportunities others simply don't. 3. Discipline is something EVERYBODY can demonstrate, regardless of background. That makes it a better assessment when used as universally as we use "achievement" to measure others. Plus the focus on achievement isn't all bad anyway. Motivation and work are essential for life. It's only sad now because so much is artificial. Maybe if AI can take our jobs we can finally focus on fulfilling activities that connect us to our roots and make us healthy, without the FOMO of achieving made-up metrics forced upon us. So striving [for achievement] is necessary, but its focus should exist in moderation, same as its opposite: contentedness.

But in my inner self i was suffering very hard and did not enjoy it because it felt everything was a forced and i did everything for other. So i notice life was not anything i enjoy really. It feelt like 24/7 i did task for everyone but me. Yes thats a good thing too help others. But not when yourself get lost in it. But i still do alot of work and fix job to many but i do not have that mutch responsibility. So people do not care about me mutch any longer and i cannot do as mutch i did in those times because i value have a little slower life right now.

Great video once again! Upon watching this video, I couldn't help but notice its profound resonance with Stoic philosophy, particularly the teachings of Epictetus. The exploration of societal pressures and their impact on individual self-worth echoes Epictetus' emphasis on focusing only on what is within our control, namely our thoughts and actions. Just as Epictetus advises us to detach our sense of self-worth from external validations, the video highlights the folly of basing our intrinsic value solely on societal expectations and achievements. Camus (totally different philosopher) famously posited that the human condition is inherently absurd, characterized by the tension between our innate desire for meaning and the universe's indifference to our existence. I like to combine the Stoic notion of eudaimonia, or inner flourishing with absurdist philosophy. It gives me a lot of peace of mind. Han himself, which you mention, draws mostly upon themes from critical theory and cultural analysis, exploring how the relentless pursuit of productivity and success in contemporary society breeds a culture of exhaustion and alienation. This is something Marx warned us about long ago. But I always like to look at it from different perspectives! Thanks for the thought provoking content!

One thing I've been thinking of, is that we as human beings need to strive for success in order to be able to afford basic living standards. We simply need a lot of money to survive. Nowadays, most of us need to work super hard and long to be able to afford a tiny apartment and to pay the bills. If life was more affordable, we would perhaps not push ourselves as hard and be more calm with achieving less. It's just that basic things in life are not as accessible for younger people anymore. It puts a lot of pressure on younger generations to perform. We are so stuck in the rat race that we put aside other important things in life, such as having kids, etc.

Society uses us and then discards us when we are deemed "useless." I hope you find peace of mind and can enjoy your your life and tell all those voices to go to hell!

As a person with disabilities, I struggle with internalized ableism from societal conditioning, but even if I were able-bodied, I still wouldn't want to participate in the rat race because I value my time and relationships with loved ones more than money and achievements.
