Worst advise given to me Multiple times is: You shouldn’t invest in real estate rentals because tenants will trash your property! The advise was always given to me from people who do not own or have never owned rentals!
When my husband died a friend of my family told me, "don't worry. You're young. You'll find someone else." I looked at her with rage but was too emotionally drained to say that I didn't want anyone else. I wanted my husband. I'm still single.
Just keep in mind nobody is going to replace him, that part of your life is over, but you have to start another part of your life, just do not discard the possibility of finding someone else when you are ready.
I had a bad experience too I attended one of my closest friend's funeral(he's like my brother) his sister in law had the messed up af nerves to tell me to get with his wife and start going out with her now that he is gone while I am in the same room as her looking straight ahead the whole time at my friend's casket with his well dressed lifeless body inside it while his parents(especially his mom) are crying like a river?!?!?! I WAS SHOCK AND PISSED OFF AF! How can she say that to me? Especially at a time like that? She knows how close we are I CANNOT get with his wife no way in hell! Even if she thinks we are a good match that moment is NOT THE RIGHT TIME TO TELL ME THAT!!! HOW RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL IS IT THAT?!?!?! WTF IS WRONG WITH HER?!?!?! I'm there mourning and paying respect to my friend and I have to hear that?!?!?! WTF?!?!?! I really don't understand why she would tell me that especially during that time. The rest of the night after his funeral and the next few week it was on my mind I felt so uncomfortable I really didn't like her much after that what she said to me that day at his funeral it really bothered me for a long long long time!!! But anyways, I know it probably was very insensitive for your friend to say that to you but I don't think she meant any harm in it not in any bad way I think she's just looking out for you not realizing how painful is it for you to hear that so don't take wrong. I know you miss your husband a lot but eventually you need to move on and find someone that will love and take care of you that's exactly what your husband would want I know no man can ever replace him but remember the good times with him and he will always be alive in your heart. In fact, he's up there smiling down at you right now! I wish you the best!
My family has screwed me over hard core. And they pretend to be nice and loving. Then they trample on my boundaries and wreck my things and bring weird people around
Show them "fam comes first" they don't know how 2 do it!! Teach them do not follow them, older Family sd hav been seen doing it! Hispanics r good examples of "bringing fam 2 US 🇺🇸 for the American Dream dr. MLK talked ab 4 Blacks n US 🇺🇸 js💔
Yup. If you are stagnant and unwilling to take risks, others will surpass you and they will be chosen for a better paying job position even if you are technically qualified.
I disagree, It's great way to "take action", which is usually the most important thing, when others are afraid. Worst thing that will happen is bad experience, and if that happens, then is important to learn from it and not repeat it.
Like the thought that there is someone out there just for you, and they will find you when it’s meant to be. Well kinda lonely out here for some of us who never found that person and getting too old to think that it can happen anymore.
01. Be yourself. (Instead be the best version of yourself) 02. If you work hard, you can achieve anything. (You need skills on top of it) 03. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. 04. Everything happens for a reason. (It's just an excuse. Change things yourself. Be your own reason.) 05. Just wait and let love happen to you. 06. Do what you love. (Don't do this early in life. Hobbies are good, but you need to take care of the basics.) 07. Good things come to those who wait. (Earn things yourself and actively reach for things.) 08. Time heals all wounds. (That's just insensitive as hell. Some things will hurt for life.) 09. Always follow your heart. (Use your brains) 10. You're so young. You have all the time in the world. 11. God never gives you a burden you can't carry. (Life just isn't fair sometimes) 12. You need money to make money. (You can do it even when you don't have money) 13. Think positive thoughts and the universe will provide. (The world works on action and reaction) 14. We are all born equal. (Not everyone is born with the same things as you 15. Winners never quit and quitters never win. (Truth is winners adapt. They will quit if things aren't working out.)
lord Lancelot name omg!! Another person with that mind. Yeah get good grades work for all your youth, go to university for 5-10 yrs, get a degree then get a job, get paid 100,000$ per year. That's not including debt. All of that yrs just for that when during all this time you were in a university you could just have invest, create your own business and get leverage. oh and did i even mention that most of the thing you've learn at school will be forgotten.
jam rose if it was that easy everyone would do it. don’t shit on those who want to pursue a professional career.. we need a cumulative of professionals, labourers, thinkers, and so much more.
This is pure genius! I am a senior citizen and I grew up having most of these falsehoods pounded into me. I figured most of it out over the years, but this is a perfect assemblage. Young people listen to this and take it to heart. As the narrator said she could go on for days. BTW her brutal straightforwardness is extremely appealing sexy actually! A few more I was raised with: "it's not what you know but who you know [as if this were fixed at birth]" I used to respond to my parents that I could meet people. They dismissed this. I went on to meet important people and it paid off. Another one, growing up near New York City in the 1950s and 1960s, "if you make anything, the mob will take it away from you." Maybe that's dated and local. "You'll never get anywhere if you're too honest." As if you had to be a complete shister. Honesty has many meanings and interpretations. The key is using the truth to your advantage while not damaging your reputation. The list is genius.
oh lik ive been told by my mom in life u cant have a good job if you dont have some relations to make you apply to that, i was from the beginning like, wtf? u mean everyone is that dumb or ignoraant that they wont look at me, unless im being recommended by someone who truly has relations...
Taking the...basic form of this...school yard bullies etc. It's knowing when and how to fight back. You have to be able to fuck them up bad enough to make it not worth their time to harass you. In the corporate world this can also be applied but in a different way. Start recording things. Make notes of when this or that happened. Get testimonials from other coworkers who may have witnessed it. Bring it to HR. HR will do what it can to protect the company. If it's your immediate supervisor (the most likely scenario) take it above him or...again..HR. Have a lawyer ready as well and be ready to fight.
Oh YES,, ignore Bullies, while they slapping yo little face off!! Even n the BIBLE,, bullies had 2 b Confronted thats all they know!! I always had 2 "beat the bully" b 4 they wd move on 2 some other "weak person" 2 harass, sad 😥
Worst advice I've ever received: "You don't want to go to a vocational school and learn a trade in a quick program! You need to go to a University and get a bachelor's degree. Don't know what to major in? No big deal! Just go and explore your options. You'll figure it out!" -Highschool Counselor and other teachers.
LOL Those fucking idiots are telling you to go get a degree for a shit job, waste 4-8 years in college getting shitfaced and living off ramen noodles when you could already be working and supporting yourself, not only that, but also wasting tens of thousands of dollars on books, tuition fees, student housing, ect. No wonder these idiot Highschool staff members are making near minimum wage salaries for a shit pension and a $30,000 salary, and STILL not being able to pay off their student loans. Dumbasses.
Triztan 369 there’s always a reason for everything but there’s no significant reason like what those people telling you that are implying. I’m not a Dr or Lawyer and the reason for that is simple , I didn’t go to school for it, nothing more.
I agree with you seriously things barely happen for a reason sometimes it does but for the most part things happen because they made them happen which is common senxse
At least you can still smile. It's the 3 kids to 4 different guys that are nearly TIPPING OVER the table that most guys can't handle. Single moms playing hard to get that still think a guy has to "meet their standards" while her standard is IN THE WELFARE OFFICE.... that's the ones that are doomed.
her opinions* u love her cuz she’s a bitch don’t lie 😂 there are no facts on this video life is only an illusion so that means that even her views are only an illusion. That’s factz
Yup, this is true. History plays a big factor with the success of black billionaires, or lack of them. There is always a cause and effect. And unfortunately, unless you was born into those shoes, it’s hard for some to understand, and hard for some to transcend.
Connor Flippin It’s Then not Than. Unsuccessful people can only tell you where they think they went wrong or give you overly conservative advice due to their low self esteem and limited imagination. If you want to “Take my advice” given from stranger on the internet that’s never proven himself to you in anyway, I would say pay more attention to how unsuccessful people struggle through life and the embarrassing positions they put themselves and family members. If you want to learn anything learn from an expert. Excuses are only used to justify failure
@@kbtken You should have put "than" and "then" in parenthesis and there should be a comma after "anything" in your second to last sentence. I don't care but you seem to about that stuff. Anyways, I don't its true if you mean what i think, of course you shouldn't take random advice but i think you might mean to not even consider advice from unsuccessful people which isn't wise. Now i can get behind your position if you mean advice in relation to succes but just cause someone is stupid with money doesn't mean they are with other things such as relationships or exercise for example.
Illosovic Stayne I will keep your grammatical syntax notes in mind the next time I’m writing a contract or a technical manual. Neither the Alux video or my or my previous comment addressed taking random advice. On the subject of considering advice from the unsuccessful, both the video and my previous comment explained the value of consulting with experts, not losers with nothing but guessing opinions about why they were unlucky or treated unfairly. If someone is stupid with money they should not be giving financial advice, regardless of how long they have been happily married or how many miles they can run. If your comment were logical pro athletes would not have an issue with going broke after retirement and wealthy businessmen would not constantly be getting divorced
+Erick Martin Sucre That's why I like to learn from other people mistakes. If I am ever going to get married it will be with someone I already consider my partner in life.
People attribute the best attributes to elderly people without realizing that dumb people get old, too. Just because an old person tells you something that doesn't make it inherently profound. Always take everything at face value.
Where is your proof that most young people are dumb? You can learn from intelligent people of any age. But you shouldn't learn from a dimwitted person and I've met a lot of older people who were downright dimwitted. A lot of them are in a bad situation in life because of their own foolish choices when they were younger. Now, they cannot even afford a bus pass and are ragging on younger people out of hate and jealousy. You cannot even use proper punctuation and you dare to degrade younger people? Are you serious?
You are ignorant. You don't have any proof of what you are saying which is why you are resorting to profanity and semantics attacks. You are one of those toxic people that Alux is warning us about. All you are doing is spewing stereotypes. I have no more times for you. Deuces!
Is it better to gain the whole world, and lose your soul? Theres been countless numbers of famous people who sat on their deathbed with hills of success that resented the way they lived their lives. Success and money is awesome, but when anything is done dishonestly its nothing but a lie. Kinda like when you operate out of lies that's what your whole life amounts to. One.Big.Lie. Who wants to live that? Go ahead be my guest, but I can promise you that while experiences are great in the moment, it's all fleeting. Anyone who admires success garnered through dishonesty is no more to be valued than the person who achieved it. The good people in life accept, and appreciate you just as you are.
I suggest listening to Jordan Peterson lol. Telling lies is a good short term strategy but not long term at all (for example, you lie to your spouse and get away with something, but if thats your strategy you are bound to get caught eventually, and now they lose trust)
Worst advice ... If you grow up in a rough neighborhood, people will sometimes tell you, “Don’t forget where you came from.” But if you get a good education, learn how to present yourself in a profesional manner, make some money and move into a better neighborhood, some of those same people will criticize you and say, “he forgot where he came from” or “he thinks he’s better than us”. Of course, it is nothing more than jealousy. “Don’t forget where you came from” is advice that is often meant to dissuade you from growing personally and striving for a better life than how you happened to have grown up.
Vinay my friend let me tell you, Even AKSHAY KUMAR has accepted that he is only LUCKY get a chance in Movies, there are many more better actors and Even Good Looking Guys than AKSHAY KUMAR. So yes accepting your Lines, only Hard Work Does not pays
its probably true but thats not the point, that 10% can go a long way and what most people lack in that 10% will be your advantage and put you in a better position to be lucky if you know what i mean.
Another dumb advice I keep hearing people around me say: "The love and happiness children bring are priceless." How happy was the man who approached me with his baby at the shopping center last week, asking me for help to buy diapers and formula he couldn't afford? Could anybody be happy not knowing if their child will have food or warm water for a bath tomorrow? Love does not bring food to the table or warm clothes for your children to wear during wintertime.

liesosome Simple, there will always be people out there too immature to recognize that their advice didn’t work and you didn’t have to take their advice in the first place.
Kirixx Kona yes. I remember back in my high school days, that’s how I expressed my depression is by thinking about and even saying I want to kill myself.
Shit my mom would say :/ Males in society...: Theyre nothing but gold diggers, i tell you. My mom: damn right. Get to it, child. My heart: _hugs tree_ My head: 😭😣🤢🤚 My actions: 🤑 My words: anything you ever see that you hate? You got to promise to yourself, youll use it as fuel to do better. My brat: im about this life 🏳️🌈, i swear its not a phase.
Depends entirely on your personality type. If you're a Myers-Briggs N type, your heart and intuition will slightly tip the scales in decision making. As an S type, you can override your heart's desires. In the end, it's probably a good balance of both priorities on one over the other.
The quote from Nietzsche, "Whatever does not kill you makes you stronger" is not dumb at all, plus it's taken out of context. Nietzsche did not mean to imply you'd be better off crippled in a wheelchair for the rest of your life or another such tragedy. He meant all experiences, including the dreaduful and near fatal, are learning opportunities.
Many statements were taken out of context. For example, good things happen to those who wait is not about waiting for something to happen and not doing anything. It is about delayed gratification and patience to be more successful in life later on.
Even in context, it's wrong. Some trauma will leave you permanently damaged in one way or another. The Joker's variation of this quote is much more accurate: What doesn't kill you, simply makes you...stranger.
#15 “Winners Never Quit and Quitters Never Win.” I 100% agree that this is bad advice. More often than not, it causes people to encourage in obsessive-compulsive behaviors where all they can think about is winning … and they’ll do whatever it takes to win, even if it means a few “foul” moves.
"The last thing you want to do is have your child hospitalized and you want to pay for it with clay pots because thats what you love...." 😂😭😂💀 I just died. #facts
"Never lie to an employer. Be 100% honest with them." Most employers and recruiters won't hire you if you're honest. Believe me, I've tried being honest for several months. All I got were a few phone interviews. But when I stretched the truth a bit, I've gotten interviews. Sometimes, you have to lie or at least stretch the truth (not about stuff like having a degree or certification; if a job requires 3 years of experience and you only have 2 you're better off lying, epsecially if you're applying online).
100% honest is stretching the point I agree, especially if your employer asks you something that s/he does not have to know(in your judgement). That said I am not comfortable with the notion of "stretching the truth just to succeed". Being "successful" is more than just making bucketfuls of money (contrary to what all these videos on "success" seem to be extolling. Would you really consider yourself "successful" if you became a billionaire by cornering the porn market or horror of horrors being a drug-lord ?Pablo Escobar was no doubt "successful" as the richest drug-lord billionaire in history, at least until he met a fitting end dying in a hail of bullets in a shootout with the police.I am not a moralist and frankly if you think you can get away with cheating and lying (and many people do)then go ahead and do it. However you are not "successful" if you are not living within certain values that you have
Over here in Australia they have jobs that say 5 years and you say to the recruiter "well I can do it but honestly 6 months experience". And they're like "Ahh, you'll be right. OK I'll get you some papers to fill out." Honestly I seem to go into a different industry with over half the jobs I've had. Honestly no two jobs have been close. I've just landed in a job which is quite easy and once I go permanent, it's crazy money. More than some qualified people get.
indeed what he means is that you have to be yourself. He was actually explaining the meaning of the advice "be yourself" one receives from others. He's right and all these youtube "motivators" keep saying "pretend to be someone you are not to achieve success". example: you like a girl who is vegan and to get close to her and become interesting at her eyes, you start "being" vegan too. Boom you make her love you and you hang out and puppets and rainbows but you are STILL a carnivore and soon or later you will get spoiled. Change "vegan" with "reading books", "going to theatre", "going to art exhibitions" and you have the same.
If the yourself that you have been so far is successful, happy, and fulfilled, then continue being yourself. If the yourself that you have been is in need of this kind of advice, you need to stop being that self and become a new self that has the qualities of character that will propel you into a life that is fulfilling, happy, and successful. Stop being merely your old self and become a newer better self.
Be yourself. I didn't know when I was young, that was bad advice. For the past several years, I have been telling young people going on job interviews. "Don't be yourself, be a better version of yourself." This video proves my changing thoughts. Thank you.
Jonathan Hrovat Lol. Whoever wrote this is a sad ass empty zombie. To answer Alux; The worst advice was 50% of this video. I had to rewind it to make sure I heard the but about suicide correctly. I'm nowhere near a snowflake : this is just a shit video.
Alllll theses advices were given to me as a child and in my teens. It really fucked my teens and my early adult life up. I started reading books and self educated myself. When the shades were lifted from my eyes and see life how it really is to be successful it motivated me. I was really pissed off for being lied to all theses years by the people I love most but I understand that they were fed the same bullshit from my grandparents and so on. Read books, associated with successful people (be positive if not they’ll cut you off their circle so fast you won’t know what the hell happened) and get some mentors. When it come to making friends look at it as if you picking an NBA All Star Team.
worst advice i ever got was that you needed friends to keep you happy. well, i earnt my friends by making it a motivational goal in a sport (soccer) or a video game or something. EARNING FRIENDS is motivational
Rip you. College isnt for everyone. It's got to be an informed decision to go there, not just whatever crap anyone told you about having college be a necessity.
je suis prof à un université et je peux vous dire que un degré et connaissance ne sont pas une gaspillage. une degrée toujours on donne une avantage sur les autres sans une formation
please don t..this is the most pessimistic thing i have ever heard and i feel sorry for the narrator . for example everything happens for a reason i live by it i took all the bad shit in my life ( illnes,bad relationships , beeing low in money , losses and a misscarege)and took al the presure and turning myself in the diamond and working on my self a person without faith and thats so pessemistic will never amount to anything because they will be to busy crying in a corner hating life 🤷🏻♀️
So basically the gist of this video is to work and to live in reality than isolating yourself in a bubble hoping that everything was 'naturally' come to you eventually.
The worst advice someone ever told me when I was young was to "believe A is right because most people believe it," or to "believe A is right because I believe it." That got me into many years of my life wanting to be right and arguing with anyone who didn´t agree with what I said which I thought was "logically" true. And I´m so glad I got over that already. I guess age taught me to shut up and realize that -- just because somethin is true for you, it doesn´t mean it´s also true or will be true for another.
I lost my business to a fraud within my company and the advice I got from my family was that "Bad things happen to you to teach you lessons you came here to learn."
Point taken. I was thinking, however, of useful speech for everyday use, not the language of diplomacy and novel writing. Quite a few older ppl have been in my spanish classes.
ce n'est pas une mauvais soviétique parce que français comme anglais sont les langues globale et dans un marché internationale, il est très importante de savoir une langue qui est parlé sur 5 continents et 40 pays. espagnol est importante aussi mais il est une langue pour l’hémisphère d'ouest et Espagne, donc régionale
"Time heals all wounds." That's a platitude, and platitudes only make the speaker feel better, not the intended audience. It's a good idea to completely break the habit of tossing out platitudes. Period.
"Always put your family first! Your family always comes before your friends." Friends are interchangeable. Family is not. If a friend screws you over, your family is supposed to be there for you. If your family screws you over, no one will be there for you! If I put my skill with making friends before my loyalty to my family, I'd have a couple super solid friends and my family. I put my loyalty to my family before making friends. Definitely the biggest mistake I've ever made in my entire life. Probably the biggest mistake I will ever make before I die.
MultiDayem they were the small percentage that actually made it based on that and that was back then. Most who actually only 'do what they love' dont go anywhere. Especially being in 2017, even more people are doing 'what they love' but because there are so many more people doing the exact same thing, being skilled in that field is not good enough anymore. Yes, they advice you to do what you love, but they dont finish that advice, there's A lot more to it that they dont mention.
Yes, but their passion was something big and money-worthy. I'm not saying they was driven by the love of money, but their passion so happen to be where the money is.
Claudia Carrasco actually everyone who's done something they love AND worked their butts off plus stayed persistent and adaptable is successful. The people who fail are missing one of those crucial factors
Under the Horizon true. My point was to not discredit that "love what you do" factor. You can only go so far in something you don't love. When the times get tough, you need that passion and love to keep you going
The people who have children and chase relationships in their early 20s tend to be the ones who have the audacity to despise those who took the opposite route and became successful.
That's funny, people who waited to have children are usually the ones who despise me. It is possible to become successful while also raising children, it just takes a lot of coffee. There's no time limit on becoming successful in life. There is however, a time limit on our reproduction organs.
Oftentimes people with discipline and direction in their 20s get married, have kids, and be the people who have the relationships and lives other people wish they had. Those same people wishing for that life decide to finally get it together and become successful in their 30s. We are all on our own journey. Good things come to those who work for them, and have good intentions along their path.
I'm very successful, and I actually did it by following attention of the advice that this video said unsuccessful people give. That just goes to show you that even the advice given in this video does not apply to all.
I don't believe you. You didn't give any details on which advice you used that's in this video. And you just said that you are successful, and had no more details.
*I pray whoever read this will be successful, keep fighting for success, the rich stay rich by spending like the poor and investing while the poor stay poor by spending like the rich yet not investing, roar!!, invest, earn and be successful.*
I totally agree with you,Forex trading is the most profitable venture I ever invested in,I reached my goal of $500k yearly trade earnings, setting realistic goals is an essential part of trading
But successful people don't become that way over night,what most people see is a glance wealth,a great career,purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time
Experience goes a long way when dealing in the crypto space, brokers or tutors are necessary to avoid huge losses and damage control, those of us who trade stock certainly see the need for that.
@@greenred6200 money has a lot todo with a lot. because if you dont have money ? trust me, you will have nothing. homeless, on the streets. struggling. so yes, in this world, the economies we live in. money is actually everything when you really look into it. thats why we got to work, and "need a job", for money. simple.
@@letyjay9715 Except studies show that having more money does not equate to being happier. You need it to survive, but is that all you're interested in doing?
@@greenred6200 you just changed the subject. we are talking about money being everything. happiness is a whole another ball game there are a whole other factors that get into it. happy or depressed or sad, you still need money. if you dont have it, you have to work to get it, borrow, beg for it. why? because you need it to survive. thats just a fact.
Most of the points are actually true, you haven't understood the context in which they are generally spoken and meant. Example- good things come to those who wait is meant for people to not get disheartened if they do not get the desired results immediately. You have taken the words literally and not actually tried to get to know the real meaning and context behind them.
I actually made my own post about that example. It actually means that we should delay gratification to attain success in life. That is why we need to wait and not just plunge in. It is not about waiting for something to happen without doing anything. So we need to learn how to save, finish our studies, have kids when financially stable, invest and so on and so forth. Patience goes a long way.
yeah like i said. all this advices are true but most people simply interpred them wrong. they are bad because when you say "hold on good things will come you only have to wait" most people will simply wait for good things to happen without doing anything. what it really mean is to be patient while working on something. but you have to work. but most people do not want to work so thats bad advice for them. but lets be real. what does it matter if those things are real or not if they help you get wealthy??
Yup! And I like that a lot! If her voice ain't sweet she would be considered a total b**ch by many that can't accept the hard cold truth of reality! Her sweet voice helps a lot I think it's the only reason why so many on here would listen and agree!
The wisest thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different stream of income that depend on the govt especially with this current economic crisis around the world
The global pandemic shut many financial institutions from functioning thereby rendering most people jobless & investors lost more than they ever thought of losing.
A lot of great advice! 2,200 people felt that their life-style was questioned and they were offended. I don't agree with 7:20 though. To optimize for money too early is not the greatest strategy towards wealth. Optimize for gaining valuable experience in areas that can be utilized for greater profits later in life instead. In other words - sharpen the saw before you start cutting, life is not a single tree but a whole forest.
2700 ppl think most of the advice she tells us are bullshit. and it's true... i think what she is saying is that security is the most important in life. while for me is happiness. to each to their own...
Don't believe that because they said said it in the video in a convincing tone and they got thousand of likes that it's the truth. Nobody has the monopoly of the truth. I could challenge many of these 'truths' or even defend them, so don't allow anyone to think for you.
The only problem I really have is the language. Successful people don't use the language she uses, realizing she is not the writer. It almost makes me doubt the sincerity and the personal agenda of the actual writers.
Just what I was going to say. For instance, #14 [We Are All Born Equal] isn't about the circumstances in which you find yourself, it's about your very existence. Of course, some of us will find it easier to become smarter, faster, stronger -- to succeed or find personal fulfillment, but at the core of our being humans are human. This phrase is not even advice. It's a statement. A guiding principle. If we abandon the idea that we are each equally and fully human, that kind of thinking leads to believing that some people don't deserve equal treatment and that others are somehow automatically better from birth. That idea hit the world stage about 75 years ago, and I'd like to think that it was unequivocally disproved.
it depends on your definition of success.. if you are happy, you are successful..if money is your only measure of success, you will probably never be happy
The people who measure success in money are the truly poor people. I know a few, one is a millionaire, but he has never enjoyed anything and is now lonely. Independence is my measure of success. I have four sources of income, if any one of them went away, I'd be okay. Money doesn't hold me back, and that is success. I'm happy doing everything I do.
@M.C.Honey Rose Not every people become a billionaire or an entrepreneur to earn money or for a lavish life but to bring about a change and touch as many lives as possible. And who doesn't want to leave a mark on the pages of history? Not everyone is born to die in obscurity.

Gabriel Blas don't confuse Spirituality with superstition. Many people do. Spiritual just refers to deeper philosophical meaning of something as opposed to surface literal. For instance, You tell a child the fable of the Emperor's New Clothes do you see it as just an entertaining story or is there a life message?
Good things come to those who wait is full of wisdom. It is not about waiting without doing anything that needs to be done now. It is about delayed gratification. The EQ experiment proves this as true and those who learned how to delay gratification are now successful. Why? They learn how to save, finish their studies, have kids when they are more financially stable, buy their basic needs, invest their money and so on and so forth.
Actually, many of the quoted maxims here were taken out of context. I don't know if they learned about figurative language or not LOL. They seem to take words literally. And those who are linguistically inept believe their explanations.
Wait, i actually take "everything happens for a reason" as "if something goes wrong, then there must be something i'm doing wrong".. In other words, it's cause and effect
Even then they went on to explain everything is cause and effect. You might not be able to control everything, but everything does indeed happen for a reason.
Right. I think they were pointing out that a lot of folks say things like “it happened so it must be God’s will.” Idiotic saying I think, even tho I believe in God. Lol. It’s more like yah, some things happen Bcuz some people do stupid things. Lol. I think the folks who go around saying that tend to live life in a too passive kind of way. Akin to excuses. Such as I didn’t get the job. Oh well, must be some magical or divine or cosmic reason for that. 🙄😂 I think maybe a bit better to say...it is what it is. Lol.
I don’t know how I feel about this channel. I like that it’s motivating ppl to do better by being brutally honest but at the same time they’re making it seem like money and riches is everything and the key to happiness when growing up in a rich family with well educated ppl and entrepreneurs witnessing them have extreme disfunction and self hate. There really is more to life than being rich. A bunch of miserable rich ppl with tortured souls. (My family) Is it nice ? Yes of course but it’s not the end all be all and we’re all gonna die anyways. And they contradict themselves a lot and give contradictory advice. I agree with a lot of these things but there’s something missing from this. It’s like treating life like it’s nothing more than a financial transaction. So I think it’s good it’s teaching to you to be accountable for your actions, take charge of your life, be the best you, never to be entitled and to use your money wisely just the money money money thing is throwing me off. Like god forbid you enjoy life a little bit you’re a lazy piece of shit 😂😂 idk I such at explaining things you get what I mean
Thank you so much for sharing this. I have lost a son. When people would tell me "everything happens for a reason" "God doesn't give us more than we can handle" "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger " these things would make my pain that much worse. I even attempted suicide thinking that they would understand my pain because loosing a child is life long and debilitating. My son has been gone now for 12years now. There are times when I feel like I'm right back in that moment. Every holiday, every birthday, every new school year, he is in my thoughts and I imagine how he would be right now. Time does not change the fact that he is not here. Time does not change the fact that the order has switched and I had to buried my child and he isn't here to bury me. I have 3 other sons living. One older and two young then him. Having more kids doesn't make his loss any less. I know this wasn't the point of this video however, it brought this out of me. Anyone reading this please don't say these things to anyone else who has lost a child. If you don't know what to say just say you are so sorry and you can't even imagine the pain. If they talk about their child let them and don't make it a taboo. Try not to bring it up unless you know for sure they are comfortable with it. Now I just want to keep his memory alive. I talk about him a lot. Every charitable thing I do in his name. On his birthday I give a gift to a child of his age. The child never knows that my son died or even know who I am. I first speak to the parent to get permission and I give the gift to them and they will give it to their child. So far no one has ever said no to me. These kids just think that they mom or dad got it for them. I don't want to traumatize any child and by doing this I feel like my son is calibrated. I am also saving money for all my children to use for college even him. Someday some young man will have the surprise of his life when we turn that money over to him. Yes it has to be a boy as my son. Remember his name, Izayah Levit. Thay say you never die until the last person who knows your name dies. I am trying like hell to have him outlive me. God bless you all. I hope that this helps someone out there to understand better about this. Fyi, the worst way I was treated was by the church, my father, and my inlaws. They thought that he should just be forgotten and made it a taboo to even mention him. Now that they are all out of my life I am able to deal with his death in a much healthier way. It's funny too how much closer I feel to God now that I am doing my own research then listening to someone else. Love and peace my friends Xx
I'm so sorry for your loss. It is beautiful what you are doing to keep his name alive. I pray that God brings you joy and love in unexpected places. Best to you...
@@rachelscott8518 thank you so much. I can't tell you how much that means to me. Although I do struggle on a daily with his loss I am very blessed in so many ways. Never loose sight in the beauty of life and never, ever, ever take it for granted. God bless you my friend.
I’m sorry for you loss. I just had a baby a few months ago and I cannot even begin to fathom losing her. God forbid. Keep his memory alive. Don’t listen to anyone who tries to tell you different regardless of who it is. Even the church. I also hate the saying “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” It some cases, no not at all it doesn’t make the person stronger. It can leave them emotionally crippled for the rest of their life. Fighting off thoughts of suicide and depression. God bless you.
I have to say... this video was overtly practical. If you don’t take risks and go out of your way to achieve your goals, the greatests of today too wouldn’t have been anywhere. We need to be delusional , hopeful and confident in our abilities, work hard and be out there doin’ shit. There can’t be logic countering dreams and aspirations. Period!
I agree with most of this but 7 is just blatantly false. "Good things comes to those who wait" doesnt mean "sit and wait and do nothing", it means for example, wait to make a big purchase and not put things on credit card, delay gratification to make long term investments, etc etc. it has nothing to do with "entitlement" or being lazy
Freddy Tang i completely agree. Things like letting money gain interest or not touching your 401k until you actually retire are things that are worth waiting for.
Many statements here were taken out of context and were too literal. You are right that it means delayed gratification and patience. People who do not heed this advice will fail because they will not save, not finish their studies, not have the patience to work 8 hours a day for years, not wait to have kids when financially stable, not invest and wait for results at a later date and so on and so forth.

When my husband died a friend of my family told me, "don't worry. You're young. You'll find someone else." I looked at her with rage but was too emotionally drained to say that I didn't want anyone else. I wanted my husband. I'm still single.
Just keep in mind nobody is going to replace him, that part of your life is over, but you have to start another part of your life, just do not discard the possibility of finding someone else when you are ready.
@@fp6486 thank you
Wow. I wish you will meet a guy like your husband. It won't replace him. But you can start a new chapter.
I wish I could find a women like you.
I had a bad experience too I attended one of my closest friend's funeral(he's like my brother) his sister in law had the messed up af nerves to tell me to get with his wife and start going out with her now that he is gone while I am in the same room as her looking straight ahead the whole time at my friend's casket with his well dressed lifeless body inside it while his parents(especially his mom) are crying like a river?!?!?! I WAS SHOCK AND PISSED OFF AF! How can she say that to me? Especially at a time like that? She knows how close we are I CANNOT get with his wife no way in hell! Even if she thinks we are a good match that moment is NOT THE RIGHT TIME TO TELL ME THAT!!! HOW RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL IS IT THAT?!?!?! WTF IS WRONG WITH HER?!?!?! I'm there mourning and paying respect to my friend and I have to hear that?!?!?! WTF?!?!?! I really don't understand why she would tell me that especially during that time. The rest of the night after his funeral and the next few week it was on my mind I felt so uncomfortable I really didn't like her much after that what she said to me that day at his funeral it really bothered me for a long long long time!!! But anyways, I know it probably was very insensitive for your friend to say that to you but I don't think she meant any harm in it not in any bad way I think she's just looking out for you not realizing how painful is it for you to hear that so don't take wrong. I know you miss your husband a lot but eventually you need to move on and find someone that will love and take care of you that's exactly what your husband would want I know no man can ever replace him but remember the good times with him and he will always be alive in your heart. In fact, he's up there smiling down at you right now! I wish you the best!

"Good things come to those who wait." What happens when you're 70 and still waiting?

04. Everything happens for a reason. (It's just an excuse. Change things yourself. Be your own reason.)
05. Just wait and let love happen to you.
06. Do what you love. (Don't do this early in life. Hobbies are good, but you need to take care of the basics.)
07. Good things come to those who wait. (Earn things yourself and actively reach for things.)
08. Time heals all wounds. (That's just insensitive as hell. Some things will hurt for life.)
09. Always follow your heart. (Use your brains)
10. You're so young. You have all the time in the world.
11. God never gives you a burden you can't carry. (Life just isn't fair sometimes)
12. You need money to make money. (You can do it even when you don't have money)
13. Think positive thoughts and the universe will provide. (The world works on action and reaction)
14. We are all born equal. (Not everyone is born with the same things as you
15. Winners never quit and quitters never win. (Truth is winners adapt. They will quit if things aren't working out.)

The worst advice so far I've heard is "Your marks at school are everything".
Lmao you won't say that when you get good grady
lord Lancelot name omg!! Another person with that mind. Yeah get good grades work for all your youth, go to university for 5-10 yrs, get a degree then get a job, get paid 100,000$ per year. That's not including debt. All of that yrs just for that when during all this time you were in a university you could just have invest, create your own business and get leverage. oh and did i even mention that most of the thing you've learn at school will be forgotten.
jam rose if it was that easy everyone would do it. don’t shit on those who want to pursue a professional career.. we need a cumulative of professionals, labourers, thinkers, and so much more.
Find a rich man and settle, how many times I heard that
That's a universal worst advice around the Earth bro...Me too 👍✌️😁
This is pure genius! I am a senior citizen and I grew up having most of these falsehoods pounded into me. I figured most of it out over the years, but this is a perfect assemblage. Young people listen to this and take it to heart. As the narrator said she could go on for days. BTW her brutal straightforwardness is extremely appealing sexy actually! A few more I was raised with:
"it's not what you know but who you know [as if this were fixed at birth]" I used to respond to my parents that I could meet people. They dismissed this. I went on to meet important people and it paid off.
Another one, growing up near New York City in the 1950s and 1960s, "if you make anything, the mob will take it away from you." Maybe that's dated and local.
"You'll never get anywhere if you're too honest." As if you had to be a complete shister. Honesty has many meanings and interpretations. The key is using the truth to your advantage while not damaging your reputation.
The list is genius.
we learning bro
Thanks for your ideas.
you should make a channel too sir !
oh lik ive been told by my mom in life u cant have a good job if you dont have some relations to make you apply to that, i was from the beginning like, wtf? u mean everyone is that dumb or ignoraant that they wont look at me, unless im being recommended by someone who truly has relations...
The worst advice I've got by everyone I knew:
"Just ignore the bullies! They can't do you harm!"
...seriously?
Exactly I was never the type to ignore
Taking the...basic form of this...school yard bullies etc. It's knowing when and how to fight back. You have to be able to fuck them up bad enough to make it not worth their time to harass you. In the corporate world this can also be applied but in a different way. Start recording things. Make notes of when this or that happened. Get testimonials from other coworkers who may have witnessed it. Bring it to HR.
HR will do what it can to protect the company. If it's your immediate supervisor (the most likely scenario) take it above him or...again..HR. Have a lawyer ready as well and be ready to fight.
Stand up to them💯 you might get your ass beat but theyll leave you alone
Oh YES,, ignore Bullies, while they slapping yo little face off!! Even n the BIBLE,, bullies had 2 b Confronted thats all they know!! I always had 2 "beat the bully" b 4 they wd move on 2 some other "weak person" 2 harass, sad 😥
I was ignoring the bullies,and they left me.

Worst advice I've ever received: "You don't want to go to a vocational school and learn a trade in a quick program! You need to go to a University and get a bachelor's degree. Don't know what to major in? No big deal! Just go and explore your options. You'll figure it out!" -Highschool Counselor and other teachers.
Wow, my high school adviser told us to get a degree based on our strengths and interests and we were tested to gauge our interests and strengths.
And that's why they're highschool teachers.
LOL Those fucking idiots are telling you to go get a degree for a shit job, waste 4-8 years in college getting shitfaced and living off ramen noodles when you could already be working and supporting yourself, not only that, but also wasting tens of thousands of dollars on books, tuition fees, student housing, ect.

The worst advice an unsuccessful person can give you is “Take my advice...”
😂🤣🤣LMAO
Than what’s the point of advice at all?
Connor Flippin It’s Then not Than. Unsuccessful people can only tell you where they think they went wrong or give you overly conservative advice due to their low self esteem and limited imagination. If you want to “Take my advice” given from stranger on the internet that’s never proven himself to you in anyway, I would say pay more attention to how unsuccessful people struggle through life and the embarrassing positions they put themselves and family members. If you want to learn anything learn from an expert. Excuses are only used to justify failure
@@kbtken You should have put "than" and "then" in parenthesis and there should be a comma after "anything" in your second to last sentence. I don't care but you seem to about that stuff. Anyways, I don't its true if you mean what i think, of course you shouldn't take random advice but i think you might mean to not even consider advice from unsuccessful people which isn't wise. Now i can get behind your position if you mean advice in relation to succes but just cause someone is stupid with money doesn't mean they are with other things such as relationships or exercise for example.
Illosovic Stayne I will keep your grammatical syntax notes in mind the next time I’m writing a contract or a technical manual.
Neither the Alux video or my or my previous comment addressed taking random advice. On the subject of considering advice from the unsuccessful, both the video and my previous comment explained the value of consulting with experts, not losers with nothing but guessing opinions about why they were unlucky or treated unfairly.
If someone is stupid with money they should not be giving financial advice, regardless of how long they have been happily married or how many miles they can run. If your comment were logical pro athletes would not have an issue with going broke after retirement and wealthy businessmen would not constantly be getting divorced

People attribute the best attributes to elderly people without realizing that dumb people get old, too. Just because an old person tells you something that doesn't make it inherently profound. Always take everything at face value.
that is so true
You can learn from anyone of any age. If that old person is dimwitted, then listening to them is harmful.
Where is your proof that most young people are dumb? You can learn from intelligent people of any age. But you shouldn't learn from a dimwitted person and I've met a lot of older people who were downright dimwitted. A lot of them are in a bad situation in life because of their own foolish choices when they were younger. Now, they cannot even afford a bus pass and are ragging on younger people out of hate and jealousy. You cannot even use proper punctuation and you dare to degrade younger people? Are you serious?
You are ignorant. You don't have any proof of what you are saying which is why you are resorting to profanity and semantics attacks. You are one of those toxic people that Alux is warning us about. All you are doing is spewing stereotypes. I have no more times for you. Deuces!
Like the songs says. "You don't have to be old to be wise".
Always tell the truth. That's something they tell you from kindergarten. Better advice is: know when to lie.
Hahaha
Is it better to gain the whole world, and lose your soul? Theres been countless numbers of famous people who sat on their deathbed with hills of success that resented the way they lived their lives. Success and money is awesome, but when anything is done dishonestly its nothing but a lie. Kinda like when you operate out of lies that's what your whole life amounts to. One.Big.Lie. Who wants to live that? Go ahead be my guest, but I can promise you that while experiences are great in the moment, it's all fleeting. Anyone who admires success garnered through dishonesty is no more to be valued than the person who achieved it. The good people in life accept, and appreciate you just as you are.
No. But know when to say nothing. And know how to apologize sincerely without making excuses.
I suggest listening to Jordan Peterson lol. Telling lies is a good short term strategy but not long term at all (for example, you lie to your spouse and get away with something, but if thats your strategy you are bound to get caught eventually, and now they lose trust)
Lying gets you nowhere. You will hav to keep lying to back up the last lie you just told.
Worst advice ... If you grow up in a rough neighborhood, people will sometimes tell you, “Don’t forget where you came from.” But if you get a good education, learn how to present yourself in a profesional manner, make some money and move into a better neighborhood, some of those same people will criticize you and say, “he forgot where he came from” or “he thinks he’s better than us”. Of course, it is nothing more than jealousy. “Don’t forget where you came from” is advice that is often meant to dissuade you from growing personally and striving for a better life than how you happened to have grown up.
The worst advise that I have received this 10% hard work 90% luck

its probably true but thats not the point, that 10% can go a long way and what most people lack in that 10% will be your advantage and put you in a better position to be lucky if you know what i mean.

How happy was the man who approached me with his baby at the shopping center last week, asking me for help to buy diapers and formula he couldn't afford?

One thing you’ll notice about people who give you bad advice you follow is that they criticize you when it doesn’t work.
i know that this comment is a year late but what does that mean? i need some explanation.
liesosome Simple, there will always be people out there too immature to recognize that their advice didn’t work and you didn’t have to take their advice in the first place.
@@marshahanson5870 thank you for your explanation! 🙂
"Your heart is stupid, follow your brain.." 😃😃😃 love it!
What if my brain tells me to kill myself but my heart says my family will miss me and I shouldn’t do it 😳
Kirixx Kona yes. I remember back in my high school days, that’s how I expressed my depression is by thinking about and even saying I want to kill myself.
My brain is fucking dumb
Shit my mom would say :/
Males in society...: Theyre nothing but gold diggers, i tell you.
My mom: damn right. Get to it, child.
My heart: _hugs tree_
My head: 😭😣🤢🤚
My actions: 🤑
My words: anything you ever see that you hate? You got to promise to yourself, youll use it as fuel to do better.
My brat: im about this life 🏳️🌈, i swear its not a phase.
Depends entirely on your personality type. If you're a Myers-Briggs N type, your heart and intuition will slightly tip the scales in decision making. As an S type, you can override your heart's desires. In the end, it's probably a good balance of both priorities on one over the other.
The quote from Nietzsche, "Whatever does not kill you makes you stronger" is not dumb at all, plus it's taken out of context. Nietzsche did not mean to imply you'd be better off crippled in a wheelchair for the rest of your life or another such tragedy. He meant all experiences, including the dreaduful and near fatal, are learning opportunities.
Many statements were taken out of context. For example, good things happen to those who wait is not about waiting for something to happen and not doing anything. It is about delayed gratification and patience to be more successful in life later on.
Even in context, it's wrong. Some trauma will leave you permanently damaged in one way or another. The Joker's variation of this quote is much more accurate: What doesn't kill you, simply makes you...stranger.
Strange=strong, dude. Just look at the Joker.
The problem is that he makes the statement an absolute with "will" rather than using "can" or "may."
Nietzsche was Adolph Hitler's favorite philosopher
#15 “Winners Never Quit and Quitters Never Win.” I 100% agree that this is bad advice. More often than not, it causes people to encourage in obsessive-compulsive behaviors where all they can think about is winning … and they’ll do whatever it takes to win, even if it means a few “foul” moves.

"Never lie to an employer. Be 100% honest with them."
Most employers and recruiters won't hire you if you're honest. Believe me, I've tried being honest for several months. All I got were a few phone interviews. But when I stretched the truth a bit, I've gotten interviews.
Sometimes, you have to lie or at least stretch the truth (not about stuff like having a degree or certification; if a job requires 3 years of experience and you only have 2 you're better off lying, epsecially if you're applying online).
100% honest is stretching the point I agree, especially if your employer asks you something that s/he does not have to know(in your judgement). That said I am not comfortable with the notion of "stretching the truth just to succeed". Being "successful" is more than just making bucketfuls of money (contrary to what all these videos on "success" seem to be extolling. Would you really consider yourself "successful" if you became a billionaire by cornering the porn market or horror of horrors being a drug-lord ?Pablo Escobar was no doubt "successful" as the richest drug-lord billionaire in history, at least until he met a fitting end dying in a hail of bullets in a shootout with the police.I am not a moralist and frankly if you think you can get away with cheating and lying (and many people do)then go ahead and do it. However you are not "successful" if you are not living within certain values that you have
Over here in Australia they have jobs that say 5 years and you say to the recruiter "well I can do it but honestly 6 months experience". And they're like "Ahh, you'll be right. OK I'll get you some papers to fill out." Honestly I seem to go into a different industry with over half the jobs I've had. Honestly no two jobs have been close. I've just landed in a job which is quite easy and once I go permanent, it's crazy money. More than some qualified people get.
True that, and I speak from experience!
You say what the employer wants to hear, not the truth.
"be yourself" means not to play a role you aren't, every one will figure out quickly
Mad9977 Productions the double negative confuses. Would you Elaborate?
indeed what he means is that you have to be yourself. He was actually explaining the meaning of the advice "be yourself" one receives from others.
He's right and all these youtube "motivators" keep saying "pretend to be someone you are not to achieve success".
example: you like a girl who is vegan and to get close to her and become interesting at her eyes, you start "being" vegan too. Boom you make her love you and you hang out and puppets and rainbows but you are STILL a carnivore and soon or later you will get spoiled. Change "vegan" with "reading books", "going to theatre", "going to art exhibitions" and you have the same.
If the yourself that you have been so far is successful, happy, and fulfilled, then continue being yourself. If the yourself that you have been is in need of this kind of advice, you need to stop being that self and become a new self that has the qualities of character that will propel you into a life that is fulfilling, happy, and successful. Stop being merely your old self and become a newer better self.
@@marcofragomeni9914 I like your analogy.
@@graybeard222you are so right! !
Be yourself. I didn't know when I was young, that was bad advice. For the past several years, I have been telling young people going on job interviews. "Don't be yourself, be a better version of yourself." This video proves my changing thoughts. Thank you.

@@TodayITeach like your comment. idiot
Alllll theses advices were given to me as a child and in my teens. It really fucked my teens and my early adult life up. I started reading books and self educated myself. When the shades were lifted from my eyes and see life how it really is to be successful it motivated me. I was really pissed off for being lied to all theses years by the people I love most but I understand that they were fed the same bullshit from my grandparents and so on.
Read books, associated with successful people (be positive if not they’ll cut you off their circle so fast you won’t know what the hell happened) and get some mentors.
When it come to making friends look at it as if you picking an NBA All Star Team.
NBA point is fire🔥
Logical and not blinded by religion. I LOVE THIS CHANNEL
Religion is all about doing what is told regardless of what is right.
I only use religion for morals I am not paying my monthly dividen to spread an ideology
Dreams and self importance blind people more than religion. Trust me.

Worst advice i ever got was go to college. What a giant waste of time and money i completely got screwed over.
worst advice i ever got was that you needed friends to keep you happy.
well, i earnt my friends by making it a motivational goal in a sport (soccer) or a video game or something.
EARNING FRIENDS is motivational
Rip you. College isnt for everyone. It's got to be an informed decision to go there, not just whatever crap anyone told you about having college be a necessity.
je suis prof à un université et je peux vous dire que un degré et connaissance ne sont pas une gaspillage. une degrée toujours on donne une avantage sur les autres sans une formation
what would u have done if u wouldn't go to college? and what did u even study ?
Nikou mass I have to go because I'm in nursing
I'm just gonna send this video to everyone who keeps trying to tell me how to live my life every point was spot on
I fell attacked, coz I use to live by most of the advice given here.
Thank you, am gonna kick my own ass and change.
please don t..this is the most pessimistic thing i have ever heard and i feel sorry for the narrator . for example everything happens for a reason i live by it i took all the bad shit in my life ( illnes,bad relationships , beeing low in money , losses and a misscarege)and took al the presure and turning myself in the diamond and working on my self a person without faith and thats so pessemistic will never amount to anything because they will be to busy crying in a corner hating life 🤷🏻♀️
So many of these suggestions is what I was told growing up and it’s been a struggle to reprogram my mind, but I’m slinging it little by little.
“What a load of bullsh*t....” haha I love the narrator! 😂😂😂
Ikr xd lmao
So basically the gist of this video is to work and to live in reality than isolating yourself in a bubble hoping that everything was 'naturally' come to you eventually.
Aviral Bhardwaj Exactly, no external force will ever make you successful, only you are responsible for your wealth.
“You need a job not a business!” 😂😂😂😂😂
go to school is the worst advice to succeed 😂
For real!
The worst advice someone ever told me when I was young was to "believe A is right because most people believe it," or to "believe A is right because I believe it." That got me into many years of my life wanting to be right and arguing with anyone who didn´t agree with what I said which I thought was "logically" true. And I´m so glad I got over that already. I guess age taught me to shut up and realize that -- just because somethin is true for you, it doesn´t mean it´s also true or will be true for another.
The worst advice I've heard was "Your home is the best investment you could've done"
jhon croquer why do you say that?
anonymous diva cus it’s a liability and people invest thinking it’s an asset. i believe it’s in the book rich dad poor dad
You can turn it into an asset if you rent it out though
Agreed
For most people it IS
I love their level of honesty.
I lost my business to a fraud within my company and the advice I got from my family was that "Bad things happen to you to teach you lessons you came here to learn."
"There are NO UNIVERSAL TRUTHS..." Is that universally true?
Haha that is good one
A terrific point of view! 😂
Nice paradox
Very good point
I take off my hat, this is beautiful.
Worst advice I’ve ever gotten (and followed,) “You should take French instead of Spanish.”
What a waste, I still regret this even after 25 years.
If yuo can learn French, you can learn Spanish, so long as your brain still works.
Point taken. I was thinking, however, of useful speech for everyday use, not the language of diplomacy and novel writing. Quite a few older ppl have been in my spanish classes.
LOL
ce n'est pas une mauvais soviétique parce que français comme anglais sont les langues globale et dans un marché internationale, il est très importante de savoir une langue qui est parlé sur 5 continents et 40 pays. espagnol est importante aussi mais il est une langue pour l’hémisphère d'ouest et Espagne, donc régionale
"Time heals all wounds." That's a platitude, and platitudes only make the speaker feel better, not the intended audience. It's a good idea to completely break the habit of tossing out platitudes. Period.
"Always put your family first! Your family always comes before your friends."
Friends are interchangeable.
Family is not.
If a friend screws you over, your family is supposed to be there for you.
If your family screws you over, no one will be there for you!
If I put my skill with making friends before my loyalty to my family, I'd have a couple super solid friends and my family.
I put my loyalty to my family before making friends. Definitely the biggest mistake I've ever made in my entire life. Probably the biggest mistake I will ever make before I die.
Should have called it “ 15 things your teacher has written on a poster somewhere in a classroom “

TBH A LOT of successful people tell people to follow their heart. Take Steve Jobs in his Stanford speech for example.
MultiDayem they were the small percentage that actually made it based on that and that was back then. Most who actually only 'do what they love' dont go anywhere. Especially being in 2017, even more people are doing 'what they love' but because there are so many more people doing the exact same thing, being skilled in that field is not good enough anymore.
Yes, they advice you to do what you love, but they dont finish that advice, there's A lot more to it that they dont mention.
Yes, but their passion was something big and money-worthy. I'm not saying they was driven by the love of money, but their passion so happen to be where the money is.
Claudia Carrasco actually everyone who's done something they love AND worked their butts off plus stayed persistent and adaptable is successful. The people who fail are missing one of those crucial factors
CelloChii you can turn any passion into money if you are creative enough
Under the Horizon true. My point was to not discredit that "love what you do" factor. You can only go so far in something you don't love. When the times get tough, you need that passion and love to keep you going
“Time heal all sounds” No. The way she said that ‘No’ is just hilarious.
"I believe that whatever doesn't kill you...makes you stranger."" --The Joker.
actually its from Friedrich Nietzsche
@@hifijohn I don't think that's exactly what Nietzsche said...
The people who have children and chase relationships in their early 20s tend to be the ones who have the audacity to despise those who took the opposite route and became successful.
Generation-Y Guy wrong not everyone regrets having kids and some do still become successful even with kids
That's funny, people who waited to have children are usually the ones who despise me. It is possible to become successful while also raising children, it just takes a lot of coffee. There's no time limit on becoming successful in life. There is however, a time limit on our reproduction organs.
Where do you get that from? A lot of those same people become very successful in life and many who did the opposite are NOT successful.
Oftentimes people with discipline and direction in their 20s get married, have kids, and be the people who have the relationships and lives other people wish they had. Those same people wishing for that life decide to finally get it together and become successful in their 30s. We are all on our own journey. Good things come to those who work for them, and have good intentions along their path.
I'm very successful, and I actually did it by following attention of the advice that this video said unsuccessful people give. That just goes to show you that even the advice given in this video does not apply to all.
leeluv96 🙏
yea fuck this video mayn.
Because many of the statements were taken out of context and taken too literally.
I don't believe you. You didn't give any details on which advice you used that's in this video. And you just said that you are successful, and had no more details.

I totally agree with you,Forex trading is the most profitable venture I ever invested in,I reached my goal of $500k yearly trade earnings, setting realistic goals is an essential part of trading
But successful people don't become that way over night,what most people see is a glance wealth,a great career,purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time
Experience goes a long way when dealing in the crypto space, brokers or tutors are necessary to avoid huge losses and damage control, those of us who trade stock certainly see the need for that.

"Money is not everything" is the stupidest advice I keep receiving from people who themselves are not financially secured...
Soooo money IS everything, then?
@@greenred6200 money has a lot todo with a lot. because if you dont have money ? trust me, you will have nothing. homeless, on the streets. struggling. so yes, in this world, the economies we live in. money is actually everything when you really look into it. thats why we got to work, and "need a job", for money. simple.
@@letyjay9715 Except studies show that having more money does not equate to being happier. You need it to survive, but is that all you're interested in doing?
@@greenred6200 you just changed the subject. we are talking about money being everything. happiness is a whole another ball game there are a whole other factors that get into it. happy or depressed or sad, you still need money. if you dont have it, you have to work to get it, borrow, beg for it. why? because you need it to survive. thats just a fact.
@@letyjay9715 Why are you saying this as if I don't already know?
Most of the points are actually true, you haven't understood the context in which they are generally spoken and meant. Example- good things come to those who wait is meant for people to not get disheartened if they do not get the desired results immediately.
You have taken the words literally and not actually tried to get to know the real meaning and context behind them.
aanshik gupta exactly
THANK YOU.
I actually made my own post about that example. It actually means that we should delay gratification to attain success in life. That is why we need to wait and not just plunge in. It is not about waiting for something to happen without doing anything. So we need to learn how to save, finish our studies, have kids when financially stable, invest and so on and so forth. Patience goes a long way.
yeah like i said. all this advices are true but most people simply interpred them wrong.
they are bad because when you say "hold on good things will come you only have to wait" most people will simply wait for good things to happen without doing anything.
what it really mean is to be patient while working on something. but you have to work. but most people do not want to work so thats bad advice for them.
but lets be real. what does it matter if those things are real or not if they help you get wealthy??
i love how this sweet sounding girl gives harsh and realistic advice
She sounds smarmy to me.
Yup! And I like that a lot! If her voice ain't sweet she would be considered a total b**ch by many that can't accept the hard cold truth of reality! Her sweet voice helps a lot I think it's the only reason why so many on here would listen and agree!
The wisest thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different stream of income that depend on the govt especially with this current economic crisis around the world

A lot of great advice! 2,200 people felt that their life-style was questioned and they were offended. I don't agree with 7:20 though. To optimize for money too early is not the greatest strategy towards wealth. Optimize for gaining valuable experience in areas that can be utilized for greater profits later in life instead. In other words - sharpen the saw before you start cutting, life is not a single tree but a whole forest.
2700 ppl think most of the advice she tells us are bullshit. and it's true... i think what she is saying is that security is the most important in life. while for me is happiness. to each to their own...

You're right sir, it's obvious a lot of people remain poor due to ignorance
It's better to take risk and make sacrifices than to remain poor.
It's not ignorance but due to some unprofessional expert in the market.

Worst advice: "Got to college and Get married". These 2 pieces of advice plague almost ever human on the face of the earth in some way shape or form.
Even just going to college or just getting married is worse but that advice can kill a person.

The only problem I really have is the language. Successful people don't use the language she uses, realizing she is not the writer. It almost makes me doubt the sincerity and the personal agenda of the actual writers.

Probably do you good."
Peppy McVanderspank Or you should invest in a company that grows marijuana, that is advice that is abhorrent to me
LMAO!!! Probably was a crackhead gave u that advice.
Some of these felt hella misinterpreted, though
for real
I agree ☝️... her points that she tried to make to justify her points of view that she was adhering to sounded just as dumb
Just what I was going to say. For instance, #14 [We Are All Born Equal] isn't about the circumstances in which you find yourself, it's about your very existence. Of course, some of us will find it easier to become smarter, faster, stronger -- to succeed or find personal fulfillment, but at the core of our being humans are human. This phrase is not even advice. It's a statement. A guiding principle. If we abandon the idea that we are each equally and fully human, that kind of thinking leads to believing that some people don't deserve equal treatment and that others are somehow automatically better from birth. That idea hit the world stage about 75 years ago, and I'd like to think that it was unequivocally disproved.
Agreed. Just words of advice being misinterpreted
tftm
Yes, I felt the same way...
Kinda a pessimistic video tbh...
it depends on your definition of success.. if you are happy, you are successful..if money is your only measure of success, you will probably never be happy
The people who measure success in money are the truly poor people. I know a few, one is a millionaire, but he has never enjoyed anything and is now lonely. Independence is my measure of success. I have four sources of income, if any one of them went away, I'd be okay. Money doesn't hold me back, and that is success. I'm happy doing everything I do.
YOU CAN HAVE BOTH!!!

Not every people become a billionaire or an entrepreneur to earn money or for a lavish life but to bring about a change and touch as many lives as possible. And who doesn't want to leave a mark on the pages of history? Not everyone is born to die in obscurity.

Merisa yes . I thought im the only one who thinks she is talking rubbish . I mean they all make sens if you interpret them in a way they supposed to be
I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks she's talking rubbish too.
There's a lack of spiritual awareness going on here, hence all these quotes are interpreted on a surface level.
Merisa she is Chinese,We English
Gabriel Blas don't confuse Spirituality with superstition. Many people do. Spiritual just refers to deeper philosophical meaning of something as opposed to surface literal. For instance, You tell a child the fable of the Emperor's New Clothes do you see it as just an entertaining story or is there a life message?
Nah she boosted my attitude. I wanna have this kind of attitude. Get in shape First rather looking for shaped person
Good things come to those who wait is full of wisdom. It is not about waiting without doing anything that needs to be done now. It is about delayed gratification. The EQ experiment proves this as true and those who learned how to delay gratification are now successful. Why? They learn how to save, finish their studies, have kids when they are more financially stable, buy their basic needs, invest their money and so on and so forth.
WHATEVER GOES FOR ME Yea I figured they (whoever wrote the contents in the video) doesn't quite understand the context in this quote

Wait, i actually take "everything happens for a reason" as "if something goes wrong, then there must be something i'm doing wrong"..
In other words, it's cause and effect
Even then they went on to explain everything is cause and effect. You might not be able to control everything, but everything does indeed happen for a reason.
OMG I never hadn't seen it in that way, I'm shocked hahahaha
Right. I think they were pointing out that a lot of folks say things like “it happened so it must be God’s will.” Idiotic saying I think, even tho I believe in God. Lol. It’s more like yah, some things happen Bcuz some people do stupid things. Lol. I think the folks who go around saying that tend to live life in a too passive kind of way. Akin to excuses. Such as I didn’t get the job. Oh well, must be some magical or divine or cosmic reason for that. 🙄😂 I think maybe a bit better to say...it is what it is. Lol.
I don’t know how I feel about this channel. I like that it’s motivating ppl to do better by being brutally honest but at the same time they’re making it seem like money and riches is everything and the key to happiness when growing up in a rich family with well educated ppl and entrepreneurs witnessing them have extreme disfunction and self hate. There really is more to life than being rich. A bunch of miserable rich ppl with tortured souls. (My family) Is it nice ? Yes of course but it’s not the end all be all and we’re all gonna die anyways. And they contradict themselves a lot and give contradictory advice. I agree with a lot of these things but there’s something missing from this. It’s like treating life like it’s nothing more than a financial transaction.
So I think it’s good it’s teaching to you to be accountable for your actions, take charge of your life, be the best you, never to be entitled and to use your money wisely just the money money money thing is throwing me off. Like god forbid you enjoy life a little bit you’re a lazy piece of shit 😂😂 idk I such at explaining things you get what I mean
I feel the same way about this channel haha
@WheresPaul#1981 AND THAT IS THE BRUTAL HONEST TRUTHHH!!
Thank you so much for sharing this. I have lost a son. When people would tell me "everything happens for a reason" "God doesn't give us more than we can handle" "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger " these things would make my pain that much worse. I even attempted suicide thinking that they would understand my pain because loosing a child is life long and debilitating. My son has been gone now for 12years now. There are times when I feel like I'm right back in that moment. Every holiday, every birthday, every new school year, he is in my thoughts and I imagine how he would be right now. Time does not change the fact that he is not here. Time does not change the fact that the order has switched and I had to buried my child and he isn't here to bury me. I have 3 other sons living. One older and two young then him. Having more kids doesn't make his loss any less. I know this wasn't the point of this video however, it brought this out of me. Anyone reading this please don't say these things to anyone else who has lost a child. If you don't know what to say just say you are so sorry and you can't even imagine the pain. If they talk about their child let them and don't make it a taboo. Try not to bring it up unless you know for sure they are comfortable with it. Now I just want to keep his memory alive. I talk about him a lot. Every charitable thing I do in his name. On his birthday I give a gift to a child of his age. The child never knows that my son died or even know who I am. I first speak to the parent to get permission and I give the gift to them and they will give it to their child. So far no one has ever said no to me. These kids just think that they mom or dad got it for them. I don't want to traumatize any child and by doing this I feel like my son is calibrated. I am also saving money for all my children to use for college even him. Someday some young man will have the surprise of his life when we turn that money over to him. Yes it has to be a boy as my son. Remember his name, Izayah Levit. Thay say you never die until the last person who knows your name dies. I am trying like hell to have him outlive me. God bless you all. I hope that this helps someone out there to understand better about this. Fyi, the worst way I was treated was by the church, my father, and my inlaws. They thought that he should just be forgotten and made it a taboo to even mention him. Now that they are all out of my life I am able to deal with his death in a much healthier way. It's funny too how much closer I feel to God now that I am doing my own research then listening to someone else. Love and peace my friends Xx
I'm so sorry for your loss. It is beautiful what you are doing to keep his name alive. I pray that God brings you joy and love in unexpected places. Best to you...
@@rachelscott8518 thank you so much. I can't tell you how much that means to me. Although I do struggle on a daily with his loss I am very blessed in so many ways. Never loose sight in the beauty of life and never, ever, ever take it for granted. God bless you my friend.
You're amazing
@@paulxavier2846 thank you. I only do the best I can. He lives on through me. He is amazing! Please remember his name 💕
I’m sorry for you loss. I just had a baby a few months ago and I cannot even begin to fathom losing her. God forbid. Keep his memory alive. Don’t listen to anyone who tries to tell you different regardless of who it is. Even the church. I also hate the saying “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” It some cases, no not at all it doesn’t make the person stronger. It can leave them emotionally crippled for the rest of their life. Fighting off thoughts of suicide and depression. God bless you.
Yo whoever wrote this script sounds frustrated with life haha
agree 100%😂
Yup......a fuckin robot talking am I rite?
truth though
Yeah like I've never seen someone as negative as this, wow,!!!
And its brilliant, both the script and narrator 😂😂
I have to say... this video was overtly practical.
If you don’t take risks and go out of your way to achieve your goals, the greatests of today too wouldn’t have been anywhere. We need to be delusional , hopeful and confident in our abilities, work hard and be out there doin’ shit. There can’t be logic countering dreams and aspirations. Period!
My nigga you just got me cheering me up. This video had me thinking twice about my dreams
This is by far the most *real* video I've seen from Alux - AND I LOVE IT
I agree with most of this but 7 is just blatantly false. "Good things comes to those who wait" doesnt mean "sit and wait and do nothing", it means for example, wait to make a big purchase and not put things on credit card, delay gratification to make long term investments, etc etc. it has nothing to do with "entitlement" or being lazy
Freddy Tang i completely agree. Things like letting money gain interest or not touching your 401k until you actually retire are things that are worth waiting for.
Many statements here were taken out of context and were too literal. You are right that it means delayed gratification and patience. People who do not heed this advice will fail because they will not save, not finish their studies, not have the patience to work 8 hours a day for years, not wait to have kids when financially stable, not invest and wait for results at a later date and so on and so forth.
