Stop Trying To Work Harder

You doin accents is THE BEST 😅😂

Thankfully, yes, these are skills you can cultivate. Character is not something given, but something you do repeatedly and cultivate. If you want to be an honest person, you just practice not lying, for example.

What if I don't even have a career in the first place?

It’s interesting to me hearing about the world the Boomer generation grew up in. My dad was a late-stage Boomer (born 1960), and entered the job market in the early 80’s. Older people told him he just needed to get a degree and go apply somewhere and he’d get a job. He had so much trouble getting a job, though. And he was in a city where there was plenty of his industry. He said it felt like no one cared if he had a degree. And when he started working (after almost a year of zero calls back), his wages were pitiful. He was barely paying rent as an engineer, and he wondered why he had even gone to college. It sounds so familiar to today, but this was 1982.

That's Dr K. having a go at riding new Fire-Horse Year energy, sounds like he's "high" on some potent stuff 😂. Made me feel like "wow, wow, easy does it, bro 😮!"
Had to drink a few glasses of water to his health, hope you find a way out of that speedy pace, Doc ! ❤From Paris 😊

I found that I've learned critical thinking myself when I was young because I had low self-esteem and was constantly criticizing myself.

Although I'm quite succesfull in my career, I was anxious all the time. Too much critical thinking is also bad...😢

Thing is if you have a real solid skill lets say e.g. you are great at C++ programming than your company really needs you and they will put up you being a jerk introvert and completely uninterested in people AND if you dont have a real solid skill than you will have to play all sorts of games which will sometimes work sometimes not and you get will drained sooner or later.

16:47 - an issue though is that intelligent people see all that for what it is .. a game that wastes time, opportunity and potential and dont want to even get involved in the first place .. its inefficient and not ideal for actually making money .. regardless of success level from such systems, its actually holding everything and everyone back but this is the very thinhg nobody wants to talk about because "well who the he** are you though" and "it is what it is" .. all crabs in a bucket mentality that doesnt even reach towards our true human potential either personally or economically .. - tldr: dont play such games if your smart and/or care for how things could be . focus on creating parallel systems and economies that negate legacy ones . may mercy and evolution find this world - fistbump*

17:25 I have come to a conclusion before that ROI on studying is not good. That being said, studying atm because not studying seems like a guaranteed dead end, so jury is still out on the conclusion of that ROI. 30 year old European, three college/uni program dropouts at the present. Hoping to not make that four...

Dr K is a millennial, Dr K understands.

sorry, i'm a hard worker, i'll work hard no matter the benefit, unlike today's new generation, i actually like to work hard

I realized that i am just not meant to be a ceo or someone who owns a business. I just accept what i have and try to be grateful and happy everyday.

This guy us God 😊

Aesthetic appreciation negatively correlated……anyways impulsiveness, etc etc all positively correlated!

28:46 could be all kinds of things - but not lupus. It's never lupus

Bruh your accent is amazing!!! Sound like a North Carolinian 😂😂 7:36

No longer? When it was enough?

Bruh. GG should take his own advice lolol 😂 he is the one who constantly says how he never takes a break from work and then tells the world how he is having a “midlife crises “

To anyone living in Canada reading this that is still deciding on a job. The canadian armed forces has a large range of jobs that are satisfying and rewarding that offers many other benefits. You may want to check it out. I don't like fighting but I want to give back to my country. I enlisted as a system technician and only needed a high school dilpma

I definitely woulda got kicked out of class if I had to sit beside the guy that kept saying "you just gotta show up and have some grit" like for certain . This has more voices than the Indian one is probably the second best thing in this video LMAOOOO

Your advice is good, but you have the attitude of that know-it-all kid that likes to hear himself talk.
It kinda takes away from the overall message when your voice grates on the ears.

This was a lot of psychobabble to essentially say nothing much beyond “be okay.” You acknowledge we’re in late stage capitalism but take the tired neoliberal therapist route on pushing responsibility entirely on the individual instead of fully admitting there are systemic forces behind all of this.

The secret to work life is cultivating a willing suspension of contempt for your fellow man.

Who. you. know.

What helped me to understand myself was:
1 - taking notes about how i work and relate (where i must say no and where can i say yes); - > helped me see where i have to improve and plan, and not blame others for my success or failure;
2 - 30 mins/day meditation for emotional regulation -> helped me understand myself without blaming myself;
3- 1 h workout (mostly stretching) /4-5 times/ week -> helped my body and mind relax;
4- reading books -> helped me understand and being flexible for different ideas
5- weekends going out of home/city mostly in nature -> to recharge


All this things worked for me, for others might be something else. But i hope you all get the success you desire. (it won't come over night, have patience and break down the dream into small tasks and work on it).
P.S. i can't always do this consistently cause life comes with surprises all the time, but if u build a strong foundation you won't loose yourself in hard times.
Good Luck to you all!

Thanks, I guess.

9:37 imagine this segment playing after you pick up the phone

I've never related to something so much. Thank you for making this video! It was really reassuring! 😃

I'd love to see another video once you learn more about our experiences

Sometimes you can fix your self but the system is broken

This is about Job

To artistically misquote Net Loss:
"The age of the artisan is upon us once again. It is time to be an artisan."

Look at that guy, he went to Harvard

How can you say this.. when everyday of my life I hear “u gotta work harder”💀😭🤣

16:44 "You're going to make me a lot of money on this deal." The balls.... Or heck maybe the boss didn't even know what he was conveying when he said it.
