whats worked for me is trusting my own mind, realizing im not special, always be planning for the next 5 years, see your bad situations as stepping stones to something better. otherwise, become good at communication so you can make yourself valuable at work. find your strengths and lean in, dont spend all your time working on weaknesses. I do find however, that the older i get the more time i do spend noticing how beautiful life is.
For me the setback was a hyper contentious and costly divorce. I was doing "everything right" except I had picked the wrong spouse. She worked against my success then tried to destroy me in the courts. That happened at 33 for me and lead to huge financial loss, depression, and many years wasted having to completely change everything. Honestly - be very smart about your relationships. They can blindside you and be incredibly damaging and severely set you back.
You are so right. I also think you can be glad about the fact that all happened to you at 33 instead of 43 or 53 etc.. 30s have really turned out to be such a learning curve - a bit more so and a bit better than 20s, because many of us start to understand ourselves much better in our 30s. which helps a lot.
If you’re not in a place where you can see the beauty in your life, what do you do? I mean aside from therapy, medication, exercise, self help books and videos, meditation/breathwork (personally for me the most helpful but mostly only when I’m doing them)? After all these years I’m beginning to suspect a character problem, something fundamental.
Simply accept yourself and your general disposition I guess. I'm just a layperson who does not know anything. But focusing on being content instead of feeling joy or happiness all the time has been key to acceptable life as it is.
I have to disagree with Robert Greene and say *yes, you can drop it all and change everything*. I did this... but the personal cost is huge. If you can come to peace with that, then you can change completely.
The cost is equivalent to time spent in a field I mean you can't just drop what you doing to follow some new venture Unless you have some anti-aging pills
I worked a process like this on myself… safe achievable steps that are each a plank in the bridge to big change. th-cam.com/video/finkNjkqr54/w-d-xo.htmlsi=4hYeA5hHEDRaB4Ce

Nicely put. :)
09:00 "maturity is the acceptance of your own limitedness" - I love it.

Certainly an insightful conversation, but I don't understand why they talked about careers when the title was about the true self.
Can’t wait to read about the Sublime!
Mark do make a video about all red flags in relationship
