"Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die."

This mentality quickly goes away after you get rid of social media

Jealousy is a terrible emotion, you're actually just losing yourself, the other person doesn't even know or care.

Buddha said "I don’t have time to worry about who doesn’t like me. I’m too busy loving the people who love me. "

“Losers focus on winners while winners focus on winning”

I felt like a compete loser for the longest time and I hated myself as a person, so I would drink to kill the pain. That feeling of resentment never left me alone until I got professional help. Finally at the age 37, after I got some sobriety under my belt, I realized that I was my own worst enemy. I've been sober now for two years, and I no longer think negative about who I am as a person anymore.

It’s definitely a hard thing to do. Especially if your world revolves around people you dislike, environments you do not feel comfortable in , or negative thoughts you have every so often. You must find the inner strength to ignore and invest your time/ energy into things that are important and will benefit you.

I’ve been in this loser mentality headspace for the past week now, but I totally agree with u guys. I need to refocus my energy and use this to motivate me to do better and improve. I think a really great way of avoiding the jealousy is by forcing yourself to go to the very people u r jealous of and ask them to help u improve by asking for advice or support. That’ll prevent u from looking at them negatively too.

Pondering the thought on why others are successful isn’t a bad thing. Jealousy is another story.

“You just can’t hate on successful people , actually they are showing you that it’s possible to do better than what you really be doing “ Realest talk ever 💯💯👌

The real losers in life are those who don’t even try to be successful

I don’t do this. Still a loser

I want *everybody* to reach their *full potential* !

As hard as it is, it all boils down to changing the way you think.

Wow, you learn a lot from seeing this. Jealousy is the cancer of the soul, yes, but admiring someone, & wanting to work harder to reach that level they're on, is inspiring, in a sense.

I am motivated by the fear of hating myself.

I was told to watch your pod casts and I have to say, I am truly inspired! I struggle with ALOT of what you discuss and it gives me hope! Thanks for helping others!! xoxo

Throughout my life jealousy has been one of my most defining traits, I've always felt jealous since I was but a kid, not any jealousy, an enormous just hideous jealousy, and in my teenage years that jealousy did fire me up and it made me go get what I wanted.... but in a ruthless way that involved hurting others badly and even hurting my goal, which in turn led to regret and suffering, even if I achieved my goal I left a trail of chaos behind. The way Joe and Nikki are putting it here... it could really change things for me.

I just started to get this. I am having to consciously stop allowing myself to think about anything related to my day job. It just sucks all the brain bandwidth away from me and I have no creativity or energy whatsoever to pour into my art journals. I will definitely keep coming back to this video.

Joe is way better at MMA commentary/analysis than comedy. He is decent at comedy but his understanding of mixed martial arts and combat sports is world class in my opinion.

There's a certain positive energy in inspiration. I think everyone should stand up and shine their best together!

Insecurity is the big factor to jealousy. This was amazingly motivating

i think it’s a good start to think why others are succeeding and go from there in a way

Joe “ I’m not a loser” Rogan

You can achieve whatever you want. Don’t listen to what anyone tells you, mind over matter.

My life lesson his; don't underestimate yourself. That feeling and rush of surprising yourself when you do things or accomblish things you thought you couldn't do is one of the greatest things you can experience in life.

The loser mentality to me is simply comparing yourself constantly. It doesn’t mean you’re a “loser” but it does mean you are losing. Because someone will always have it better at some point. Even the wealthiest, most famous actors and actresses in Hollywood history had their crowns snatched away at some point or another. Life is a continuum. Ride the wave 🌊 😎 try not to compare your pitfalls to someone else’s gains. Because guaranteed they also had some hardships as well. Stay focused and try to be happy

It's really hard to not be bitter this year. With this pandemic the things I love are either stuff I can't do (travel) or things that I've done so much that I don't even care about them anymore (games, TV, writing, art, hiking, etc.). I just want the world to open up so I can start focusing on the things I love again.

i don't think i have a loser mentality, but i was picked on a lot in high school and it affected my self esteem pretty bad. now that i'm older, i worry that i'm just not good enough, that i'm doing something wrong or what others think about me. because i was picked on, i have kind of a negative self perception, i don't hate myself or anything but it makes me think that i'm an easy target and those kids picked on me for a reason, and in my adult life, i just worry that when i meet people, they don't like me or have a negative first impression of me

My problem is my loser mentality of hate is towards myself and being lost on what I’m doing here. I’ve been drowning on focuses on my flaws and non-existent truths only brought to fruition cause I let it. I’m trying to find what I can do to fix this, to start loving myself, accepting my flaws, and building me to be my best me.

I can relate this to playing my guitar on stage or with a new band. Someone is better then me which means there is a huge learning curve that I can take advantage of. Some of the best experiences so far to happen to me.

Vote for Dave Chappelle to be on the show. I'll have the first..

I love the last thing he says, people can get so bitter when you’re doing “better” because it shows them they don’t have an excuse 👌🏻

for anyone curious, the quote joe was trying to remember in the beginning is “being jealous is the same as drinking poison and expecting the other person to die”

I needed to listen to this video because I had got negative and resentful recently. Thank you so much

"Their showing you that it's possible to do better than you're doing. And that's good" I love it!!

Who isn't insecure about something ?

They say you need to love yourself, then when you love yourself you're selfish, egotistical and just full of yourself.

This felt like Joe was being interviewed

I don't wonder why people are successful, I know the hard work and dedication it takes... I'm just too lazy and aloof to do it.

When Joe said maybe you’re involved in a relationship with an idiot and you spend time going back and forth arguing and that’s 30% of your bandwidth that hit me

U be hitting me with these video's when I need them.

Sometimes people who don't complain aren't toxic still lose in life. You just never hear of them because they don't complain in the first place.

In other words everything happens FOR us, This was such a good clip. So full of empowering thoughts that replace the loser victim mentality. Radical.

As a musician in his 20's I feel stuck in a halfway and I'm usually conscious about it. A lot of times I see someone who's way better or knows something and theres a part thats like "fuck why cant i do that? Why can they understand it so easy?" Then another part thats like "i can get better than them with diligence." The biggest negative to the 'loser mentality' would be as an introvert, I find it very hard to not be jealous at people who get places because of their ability to connect and conversate with people. For me, its a lot harder to stay remembered even when I leave a lasting impression. They'll remember the well experience, but not my face.

I really needed to hear this. bless KZfaq recommendations for once

Jealousy can happen even without social media. It can happen in social circles in real-time. The best thing to do is always find the right support and, if possible, leave such toxic settings.

Jealousy is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die

I've heard it a few way's "Having hate for someone is like drinking poison expecting the other person to die." "Resentment is drinking poison, hoping the other person will die." all the same message though ha.

Exactly what i need to hear. Thanks for this.

Thank you. You just create a peace of relief to my mind.

Best advice I’ve ever heard holy shit you’re better than my therapist

"The fact that you aren't where you want to be should be enough motivation to be keep going."

Thats the Story of my life I had to avoid toxic people since high school ...

i needed this thank you

Comparing yourself to others is a double edge sword, but it can make you recognize a lot of stupidity that happened in your life, that led to where you are today, like negligent parenting.

Joe literally just changed my whole outlook on life. Thanks for real man

"Success in life is the result of good judgment. Good judgment is usually the result of experience. And experience is usually the result of bad judgment." Tony Robbins

love the bandwith concept, thanks Joe

"to compete is to discover yourself" this is from the movie "fearless" with Jet Li, when he is talking to the Japanese fighter having tea, to compete is not to defeat someone, ,but to discover where in the rankings, if you are second then you need to strive to be first, if y ou are first then you should maintain a constant state of training, in order to retain that title of "1st" or "top", the moment we get distracted with dumb shit is the moment we loose the title and we slip.

I was just thinking about how much of a loser I am. Thank you very much KZfaq. This is exactly what I needed.

Really loved the the martial arts thinking. Someday you will need to face these stronger opponents. Better get to work harder! Great Vid

I was always a loser. But I've been winning lately and it just seems to roll on. I just win so much at all these things I keep expecting to lose at.

Not everyone can be a winner. If everyone was a winner - winners wouldn’t be special. Just be happy there are so many loser out there so you can feel good about yourself. Don’t pretend to give a shit about others. Your a winner. The fact that the majority of people “live lives of quiet desperation” make you the winner.

Don't hate people that are better than you. Admire the dedication, consistency, sacrifaces and work etic that took them to be there and if you want to beat them and willing to do the sacrifaces necessary to reach that level then believe in yourself and go for it without second taughts or distractions.

Having jealousy and envy is like drinking poison and expecting your enemy to die. That was the quote from the beginning

"It's like drinking poison and expecting the other person to suffer." 🙂

Joe ''DMT made me bald'' Jogan

This girls voice is so piercing though my phone speaker 😂😂

This is just what I needed to hear. Thank you Joe.

There is a difference between wondering how someone found success and being envious of that success. Some of us did not live or have success around us. To try to have success ourselves we may need to see and find success in others to find it in ourselves.

Watches video. Goes straight to the youtube comments.

I had a friend jealous of me before and i never realized because i never got jealous of people i didn't get that emotion. I would stupidly invite him out with my friends and they would all turn against me because of what he would say about me behind my back.

I think there’s a difference between envy and hating. Hating is a waste of time but envying means there’s an inner desire to want what the other person has, which would not only tell you something about yourself but also encourage you to pursue and work hard towards that thing

Time is the only thing that's truly yours. The dinamic of social media is exactly sucking in that time ⌚🖤

Sports gambling is taking up too much of my bandwidth 😢😓😂

KZfaq algorithm is scary. It recommended me this video at exactly the moment when i was having this mentality.

Jealousy is the worst feeling in my opinion and I felt it really badly today I even had my first panic attack over it in over a year

Rogans citing Martial Arts philosophy is very good here it reminds of what other people who took martial arts told me

People don’t realize the awful treatment they dish out to others for whatever reason, only makes us work harder to better ourselves. It’s fuel and energy for us to push past all the criticism and make ourselves into the better overall person! In Essence their shifty behavior transforms us into better people through harder work. Assholes essentially create this better version of us, and it will piss them off. Their new jealousy will now make them re-evaluate their situation and make them work harder, while we have moved on. Peace! Hopefully then learn something about themselves in the process.......

Surrounding yourself with people who inspire you to do better is one of the best things you can do for self-improvement.

thank you for posting this

This is why I love martial arts good template in terms of it's teaching's for so many of life's obstacles; Thing I'm still learning and am getting better at is not to be jealous or down concerning myself with what other people are doing how far their ahead, unfairness etc. It ruins the reasons why I was interested and passionate about something in the first place and just makes me bitter and depressed and stop caring about everything which in turn makes me not perform or function to my best. I now try to actively stop concerning myself about what others are doing and just concerning myself with what I'm doing. I'm not racing/competing with them I'm only racing/competing with myself; (I tell that to people whom want to try martial arts and are new I see them get frustrated and give up cause they look around I can see their thinking why aren't I that good etc). I found I'm allot more happy and it's harder for anything others can say or do that'll stick and get me down. But it's a constant struggle/journey sometimes, but I pick my self up and not let anything keep me down like that song, except I no longer piss the night "life" away.

Joe "I'm gonna spend 6 min complaining about haters" Rogan

Hating yes but wondering? Super useful to wonder why someone is successful so you can emulate it. Also joe is afraid he’ll get slipped up by online comments and he cares what people think

This just touched my soul

AMEN! That is so true and to me, that is the definition of maturity or perhaps emotional discipline. To ignore the nonessential and retain the essential from life.
