Incredibly weird experience today: I wrote a short autobiography about all my goals and issues in my notes from a third person perspective this morning, because I thought it would be fun. This is the first time in my life I've wrote about myself in the third person.... Then this afternoon I hop on and this is the first video I watch. WTF... its almost like I manifested the action of writing in the third person from the future.
A different perspective than I was expecting. I like that. Taken together with a powerful factor in what stops emotional development (trauma during crucial formative years) this is useful info. I also found CBT to be a great tool for dismantling cognitive distortions and disproving limiting beliefs.
Omg I love this! I only recently came across Brian Cox and listening to his work has had this affect on me. Not only in the sense that my problems are smaller but how impossible life itself came to be, it is a beautiful chaotic mystery.
A civilised species would put Bruce Hood in charge of everything... He'd probably need some help, so I reckon Robert Sapolsky and Natalie Wynn would also be great on this benign dictatorship deal. Sadly, but naturally, the people who would actually improve the lot of our species are the least likely to promote themselves to the positions of greatest influence. That's being human for you... But, sincerely, thank you Bruce for the important work, you're a giant.
He completely ignored the people who felt less stressed by thinking about problems in first-person instead of third-person. In my case, thinking first-person means I only have to feel bad for myself, thinking in third-person makes me feel bad for myself AND a hypothetical other person. 😒 (That's why I try to avoid hearing about other people's problems, it only makes me feel worse, adding to the total misery in the world, especially when there's nothing I can do about any of it.)
Unfortunately have not found this to be true and found 1st/3rd person perspective just as stressful with only noticeable difference on what it is I'm stress about.
Maybe they think everyone thinks like them because they are always in a classroom where everyone does think like them. The teacher taught them all at the same time.
Shout out to Bruce! I took his Science of Happiness course a few years ago, it's been my favourite unit at uni so far

Indeed, maturity can change your perspective on happiness.

Fantastic content. Thank you very much.
He has a point...when life starts to stress me out...I look at the pale blue dot video by Carl Sagan....puts things back in perspective..
I really enjoy that presentation. I want to know more psychological distance.

what about the gifted that somehow got fearful of being successful? How is that feeling corrected?
How do they maintain a graph of start to end maintaining linearity of concept while describing it?
Like when to not jump to end?
First sentence was a run upon repeating the conjunction 'but' at least twice.

When someone asks me “what’s wrong” from here on out. Well you see... Johnny he pissed off 😎👍🏼 thx Ted
My teacher once joked about a student who talked about himself in a third person that is the first stage of schizophrenia
Him: "Smarties...M&Ms if you're American."
Me, an American: What
How do you call them?
@@sandra.helianthus Both M&Ms and Smarties are common candy in US

I google myself bc I want to ensure the info about me is actually limited and not the opposite

„Grow up!“
Or maybe we googled ourselves to make sure our information isn't out there & available to just anyone. Not everyone is egocentric.
im from Bangladesh
Cool
Cool bro. I am from Pakistan. How are you doing?
Maybe they think everyone thinks like them because they are always in a classroom where everyone does think like them. The teacher taught them all at the same time.
I could not do it because i do not know their pronouns
Is there anybody here who is not egocentric?
i think for adults how to remember how to be child much more important. I think we have enough with the hyper motivated jordan peterson prickle gang
First
Congratulations!
This talk is filled with negativity, and should be seen from a positive view if better said.
