Welcome to a philosophical and psychological exploration where we dive deep into the concepts of self-love and selfishness, unraveling their secret role in leading a good life.
In this video, we journey through the teachings of celebrated psychologists and philosophers such as Carl Rogers, Friedrich Nietzsche, Abraham Maslow, Aristotle, Ayn Rand, Epictetus, Jean-Paul Sartre, Buddha, and Erich Fromm. We decode their perspectives on self-love and selfishness, shedding light on the crucial balance between these concepts for our mental health, personal growth, and overall well-being.
Join us as we challenge traditional perceptions, unpack nuanced interpretations, and understand how these ideas contribute to personal development. We delve into fascinating concepts, from Rogers' perspective on self-love and Nietzsche's take on selfishness to the Stoic philosophy of self-care and the existentialist pursuit of authenticity.
Each philosopher and psychologist lend their wisdom to this intricate tapestry, helping us understand the complex interplay between self-love, rational self-interest, and personal development. Through their insights, we learn how to channel these concepts into real-world applications, paving the way for a life of balance, self-awareness, and personal growth.
So, sit back, relax, and prepare for an enlightening journey that will redefine how you perceive yourself and your relationship with the world. This is more than just a philosophical exploration; it's a guide to loving oneself, pursuing rational self-interest, and nurturing personal growth. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to learn from the best minds in philosophy and psychology.
Remember, the journey towards self-love, healthy selfishness, and personal development is lifelong. So why not start now? Subscribe to our channel, hit the bell icon for notifications, and stay tuned for more enriching content.

Ok
We need more narrsist assholes in the world. Good job bro 😂👍
The ultimate irony is, that when we focus on being our best selves, we serve society. When we focus on service first, without the self-work, we are of value to no one.
100%✓✓✓✓
True. So many zombies out there these days 😢😢😢
10000% yes
you lack the most important ingredient, our best selves isn't ourselves at all. It's the truth. I'm going to copy paste what I mean from another comment
the love of self is idiocy. The love of truth is the way. Proof: if you follow your heart you may become addicted to drugs and destroy yourself. If you love truth you will hate anything that destroys even 1 neuron, for your neural network is the mirror of truth, your true self, that is the consciousness in which we are all one. Enlightened selfishness is the salvation of the world, for then nobody would work for others (only idiots work for others; a man loves a woman because he loves himself or the way he feels about her, so he works for his love of her, not for her, same about children). If everyone stops working for others, wars stop, capitalism fails and dissapears... all the strife in the world is due to idiots. Yes, all employees are idiots, as you'ld have to be stupid or desperate to work for others, bosses exist only for the dumb, the slave minded
Which are you so what do you love? Your body which is your property? Or your soul which is a set of immortal principles, because truth is eternal and the fundamental principle (and logic is its anatomy). If you love your body, the body is your god. If you love truth, truth is your god, and there's only one god who claimed identity with truth itself
P.S. Buddla is a liar, and all other philosophers are dabblers. There is no growth without some form of suffering, and eliminating suffering is eliminating growth. Funny how almost nobody seeks god when happy, but god is truth, then suffering is his plan to elevate us to his level. There is also such thing as unecessary suffering, pretty much the kind we bring on purpose - try to go far first, then you will find adversity undoubtedly, that's just how it is, and confronting, not avoiding suffering, is the way. The obstacle is the way
38 years always sacrificing myself to please others and in fact I was taught to feel guilty whenever I wanted to put myself first or whenever I put up barriers sometimes I think I don't even know who I am but I'm willing to discover and be happy
i hope you find yourself and discover your worth❤️🩹
Then change pls dont be complaining with no work this type of shit is crazy for me. People deadass do this
People always say, “I’ll take care of you, If you’ll take care of me” but If you think about it, that is a very selfish way of viewing things. So, I’ve changed it to say, “I’ll take care of me, for you, if you’ll take care of you, for me”. I feel that is a much healthier way to look at self care without becoming selfish.
...This!!!!!
So many cockamamie ideas... jeez.
Selfish in a sense self-focused or self-caring is a good thing.
Selfish in a sense egotistical: violating boundaries and comfort of other people for the sake of one's convenience is a bad thing.
Or, in shorter wording,
Doing what you want is not selfish.
Making others do what you want is.
This channel was thrown into my algorithm a few months ago as I watch a lot of philosophy related content, and I'm so glad it was. Great stuff ✌🏻
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you for watching
Sell the Fish you have caught with your own hands, never Sell the Fish or eat the rotten fish that others give you for free.
Well said
Cool
Omg I love that. So deep.
I have no fish...sad.😢
My brother recently was cleaning his deep freezer and gave me 5 packages of older smoked fish, to make room for fresh smoked fish. I ate it, even though it was older, but it still was delicious.
The Balance and Awareness is key in everything.Self love comes from inner balance not from ego and narcistic self
Responsibility comes with awareness.
There's no balance without Ego, you need ego but don't be ignorant
They need this in Japanese schools... This will save many lives.... They embrace group importance over the individual.... Suicide rates are ridiculous....
😢
No one is an island?
Ant colony mentality, it perpetuates into the workplace aswell, they're just a number. Basically, if a worker suffers a heart attack on a production line, the company will restart the line before they restart his heart.
Selflessness is a virtual if you can't help yourself you can't help nobody.
There is a state of love which we can enter ... we don't need to get from another person .... from giving we will recieve love .... we can access it from giving
Clear communication is key. Having a clear understanding & not making assumptions about others is vital to one's well-being. We all responsible for how we conduct our lives as we see fit. If that means others will not agree, so let it be. We can't always please & make someone else happy without sacrificing oneself. Know your limitations & self-worth. Putting yourself first is important to create your best you. Don't be afraid to speak up & no one can make you feel obligated or guilty 'cause you are fulfilling your own needs ahead of theirs
Selfish is just being real, all the people who think they are people pleasers, who sit and bitch about how they get shit on, are really just in it for their own selfish expectations and when they dont get what they want they talk shit about the people they were nice to so they can feel better about themselves. Just be real and prioritize you and quit trying to trick people into being nice to you. You can still be nice, just be nice without expectation of reward, be nice selflessly and more importantly, be nice to you and stop decieving yourself with your better than thoough complex. Its a lie.
U got certain things here correct and incorrect u said stop being nice without expecting a reward that's false. The problem is people become either to nice or to aggressive instead you need to know when to use each one. Look at them like tools to get what you want. Being nice all the time is mentally retarded. For instance u have a girlfriend she says happy bday baby u say thank you nd she say for ur bday ur gnna have sex with me nd u go omg ur the best. Ur making a fatal error right here. #1 she's putting in very low effort to you . She didn't think long nd hard about how to make ur day special and ur use to accepting that. Instead you can go that's all?? Just happy bday that's not putting in no effort go back to the drawing board nd try again actully go think about what would make me happy then let me know. Nd if she tries to give u another awnser u go I told u to think about it! Can u not listen or follow directions???? Is ur listening low effort as well on top of ur thinking for others???. Now in doing this depending on the girl u have it may make her go oh shit I am putting barely any effort into him I need to go do better. Or she'll get angry nd there's ways to deal with that as well. But most guys just go oh ok baby thank u baby love u baby ur the best. U need to know how nd when to use each of ur tools.
This is so true
I had a strange dream from having played this on a loop on my sleep headband.
Dream:
I had been staying a couple days with my parents because at the time I was couch hopping and when I had arrived back home from a very low budget apartment search he was there on the couch watching something on the living room tv. He had a laptop and some notes with him and I asked him what he was doing and he showed me.
He said he was doing research on:
"The Human Avatar"
I asked him to expand and he told me some of the key points in this video and filled in something's.
The only thing I could foremost remember that he told me was "people who have to advertise how attractive they are in someway are like a noisy wall outlet"
I was shooketh.
much abuse and neglect and death and Trauma was my childhood and subsequently i did not develop or have certain parts of the maslow hierarchy of needs . i lived life trying to love others and be normal , i attracted co dependant type and narcissists .I never knew what self love was . 5-7 years was my relationship spans . I did very well in all other aspects of life and achieved much but could never find the one who loved me as i was , with my inner distance and all . and i could not fulfill the neediness of the women i thought loved me . i know my blind spots but could never belong or fit in to it all . now older i really see the significants of how the early days really shaped who i became and the hollow spots the left . philosophy on how to be alone has helped me face growing old alone and unloved . Peace . thanks for the vid
Love u bro. Really
Maybe you just need to talk it out with someone who will listen..let it out❤ Hope you can find your peace because you deserve it.
Early in life I was taught to please everyone, by 16 my friend introduced me to FOUNTAINHEAD, ATLAS SHRUGGED,and her other books, took a few years to understand them to my daily life,I could see the hallow fakeness of the human ways, I closed the door on it, and started living the way this vedio is explaining to me. This is far better.
Where do I find out more about who wrote and narrated this? Such care taken in its research and presentation.. Mind Blown....
Self love is key
you must sharpen your mind into a formidable weapon, one which can destroy a person with just words.

Stirner’s egoism > Rand’s rational self-interest

I subscribe to this IDEA
Yes
Outstanding !
What would be some best books to read for on this topic & tackling self doubt in the face of uncertainty
Ask yourself first what deep thoughts your mind already knows and read from them what books and practices you need. Starting thus build or offload for aculisation
i would suggest - the hidden secrets of money, by mike maloney.

Be in a better financial position / situation today .
Thank you so much So many questions about the perplexity of Lifehouse do y strike a balance without feeling guilty
Just say no. It takes practice. Once you have done it for a while you will stop feeling guilty x
Great worldview if you don't value you yourself first what good can you do for others?
I'm selfish when I need to be.
Let me very clear you're born you're born born with kindness with feelings but we always needed tools 🔥🌹🌹 to be better❤

If your selfish you can be a user for personal gain...opportunist...??
as of today, I'm placing me first at work. Enrolling in all AI training. Program is no longer first, especially since the majority of colleagues have demonstrated their true selves, heh. Lamers....Doing what my boss says to do, training!! Like my comp science and MBA degrees don't mean a thing.....
Christ would like a word with you..
I am my brothers keeper. ❤
Re-upload JP videos please
Hey there, I'm currently uploading them to our Patreon page
Learn about narcissim. For instance from the channel of dr Remeni. Then stop dealing with narcissists. Bam! Thats 80 percent of the problem solved right there.
PLACE NO ONE ABOVE YOU.
And no one will place you above themselves, life is cannot be lived in self absorbition, the meaning of life is finding something more important than you, greater than you, think about that when you catch yourself thinking life is meaningless and you're so sad.
@@shakey3306 THIS IS NOT ABOUT EGO OR SELF ABSOBTION.....IT IS ABOUT UNCONDITIONAL SELF LOVE.
@@shakey3306 THE OPPOSITE ALSO APPLIES.....PLACE NO ONE......BENEATH YOU......
Why on earth would you hide old videos? 😢😢😢😢
Why the hell did you remove Jordan Peterson's videos ?

Addiction is selfish
What a stupid comment. 🙄
Addiction is all about pain we are trying to numb. Who wants to be addicted to anything ? I hope you learn that we all have pain ❤️
Oh the exact opposite idea of christianity? How convenient
Lol lumping Ayn Rand with the other philosophers hilarious 😂. No thanks!
This video is an on ramp to the highway to destruction.....so says your creator.
Way too many way way way way way way way too many commercial
You want free production research and marketing with taxes paid and served to you for...free?
Whats your input?
Brono
Ok then stop crying when millonaires and billonaires get selfish and we enjoy most. This is so stupid.
Not a good relationship or matrimony though
If you share ♥️ it and talk about it it can be a moment of becoming closer. If you're not married yet, think twice about living forever with someone who doesn't understand this. If you're already married...good luck ❤
@@nancyhanscom1374 honey I’m referring to being selfish a relationship is of 2 not of one, both are sharing a life together, compromise and relinquishing control and what you want sometimes has to occur
Should occur at least
Selfishness isn’t a good thing. I get what is being said but I’d say it’s focusing on yourself and loving yourself, not being selfish. Maybe a certain level of selfishness.
@itsmefrank6187 silly.. if you dont care about yourself.. you can't care for others.. properly anyway.. leads to neediness clinginess codependency resentment and overall trauma.. relationships based in self love shared fare much better. Selfishness is the most altruistic thing to do.
Narcissistic philosophy. Nothing more, nothing less
Self love and Self actualization isn't narcissistic. What a simpleton comment.
@@AnthonyPardiMusic when taken to the extreme it's obviously narcissistic. We should all practice self love to a healthy degree, but once you neglect those who supported you and sacrificed for you, you're a full blown narcissist wether you care to admit it or not. Most people here are narcissists and need self validation for their brittle egos. In your case it's obvious it's an epiphany or a revelation to keep being a POS! Consider it constructive criticism on the content instead of a personal blow to your already eggshelled ego. Sonic boom!
@@aspartamekillsyaknow9019. That’s what he’s saying if you listen!
Narcissist are self obssessed but have no self love. They live on others energy and validation
@@aspartamekillsyaknow9019Beta
Nope opposite. They're the secret to a bad life. Everyone hates you wants to rob you & it's difficult to show your face in public. Be humble & moral. You'll feel better in the morning too.😂❤
As a human you have the moral duty to look after yourself selfishly
So you act that way to feel better in the morning? How selfish!
REALLY STUPID ADVICE.
Selfishness is never good, is not stoic this is a bad message.
Is it really a good life if you are selfish and take advantage of others for your own personal gain. This is not the same as a mutual arrangement or whatever
If you listen to the entire video, you might discover the opposite
