Thank you for watching this video. Hope you liked it. We would like to apologize for not being consistent with our uploads but now we will be uploading a video every alternate Sunday. We are also planning to change the name of the channel from Downtown Success to Philosophies of life since this channel is now all about giving philosophical wisdom for modern day success. Do let us know your thoughts.
Good video. Agree with most of what is said here. I feel like having a good self esteem is just what I need to propel my life to that extra level. I'm doing OK, succeeding in MOST areas of my life, but I DO tend to get down on myself for the "little things" that I seem to not do so well. ANd I do tend to focus on these. I especially like the last part, the GRATITUDE JOURNAL and DAILY SUCCESS JOURNAL. Will try to implement that ASAP. Any more tips on developing self effifacy to a greater level would be appreciated. AT the moment my biggest vice is my weight, a constant struggle to lose weight, but after watching some of these "tips", I feel just a bit more confident to do so. Great video, again, hope to watch more in the future. Cheers....
This is so interesting. I just wish you had another title. I want to share this with folks who could do with the philosophy and attitude and habits and thoughts ... Oh the wisdom taught in this short powerful video. Only, they'll see the title and not even open it. Oh, woe! Will be following with action these pearls of wisdom. Thank you for posting!
The way I built *_self-confidence_* was through exposing myself to the experience. What do you not feel confident about? Is it socializing? Then continually expose yourself in social situations and through the experience self-confidence will emerge
1. Build your character. 2. Self love. 3. Focus on your quality of thoughts. 4. Make a plan and stop thinking. 5. Be true to your words. 6. Own your actions. 7. Don't talk too much about yourself. 8. Remind yourself of death. memento mori 9. Ignore the naysayers. 10. Have an evening confidence ritual.
Life and people are gonna do their utmost to devalue you and see you at the bottom of the pit. People love watching others fail. If you don't love yourself and accept their perceptions you're letting others dictate your existence and reality. Ignore all, respect yourself, love yourself, and do your thing. The reason others attack you and devalue you is due to their own insecurities. The only reason others blatantly bring you down in various ways is because deep inside those same people are way below you and are trying to drag you down with them. Ignore them and don't say anything. This is the reason 99.9 fail in life. They let corpses around them drag them down. Key in life is to detach yourself from everyone. Even family. Because opinions of the family have the biggest weight on our existence, and one non supportive comment from them can annihilate your entire world.
What I've been doing lately is to think about myself in a factual way, and to not consider anything that's not factual. My insecurities are not based on fact, rather my own negative self-image that comes as a result of self-loathing thoughts and feelings. Facts enables me to see myself with humility, not the embellished version that only I can see. As an example, I don't have a lot of confidence with women. When approaching someone, I would always defeat myself saying "Why would a girl like that want to go out with a two-time loser like me?" So instead, I focus on the facts. I tell myself that from her point of view, I'm somewhat good looking, smart enough to hold a conversation and funny. That's more than what most guys have, so that gives me the confidence to talk to attractive females. Even if the facts do point a negative conclusion, I will see that I'm not nearly as bad as I think, because I always tend to exaggerate thoughts about myself. The more scientific I am while decision making, usually the better off I am.
With women, less is more. Never act like it's your job to entertain them when talking to them. You're worth it and you need not give off the heir that they are doing you à fàvor by allowing you to talk to them. A , healthy conversation is a "two-way street" with two active participants. Finàlly, it's easy to get intimidated by good looks yet keep in mind women are not nearly as self-assured as they let on. They face a lot of social pressures when it comes to appearance and it can cause even the beautiful ones a lot of grief. Some are quite sick of appearance always at such a forefront and would love for a man to dwell upon another good quality they possess. If you find it and remark about it she will see great depth in you and that will make you very original and interesting - that's a great start, don't you think?? All the best to you,; good times are ahead - you're going to do better and better with time and experience!! And speaking of experience, I have some. So please consider my counsel aforementioned above.
OMG.Just discovered your channel. Im in LUV! Thank you,Thank you. I know this will have a huge impact on my life. From morning to night I've listened to your channel. Only in 24hrs this channel's altered the outcome of my future and gave me peace with my past. Born into a broken home filled with instability,neglect, all that could be abused was, as a teen became the property Georgia and finally to end my childhood was released at 17 as an adult with expectations to become a productive member of society. I missed out on sooo much. Had no mentor, no guidance, no training on how to care myself as an adult. I had to figure it out on my own. My desire to get it right is still strong. Getting it right meant a lot of getting it wrong. 42yrs later, I can say, "knowledge was the key to open, cleans, and heal my heart." I'm currently living a life filled with gratitude, humility, confidence, and happiness. My journeys' not over. As long as theirs knowledge to be had, I will continue to improve and live every moment in the moment and without fear. And again thank you for your gift of sharing your knowledge and talent.
If you enjoy topics about masculinity and mastery, I invite you to explore the videos I share on the Mastery Order Channel. Challenge yourself with some ideas about manhood, explore your masculine potential to the maximum and become the kind of man you would admire. We can only better ourselves together, as men among men, so I invite you to use what I share and, of course, share your own thoughts so that others can benefit from them as well. All the best to you!
I'm getting pumped up just from listening to these words of wisdom, almost like that fire is coming back into my stale, monotonous life. Thank you so much for these videos, i hope you know how much help you are providing for people all around the world.
Confronting oneself can and is often s painful process of varying degree. We have a great mind. So do not slow it down. Its telling you something is wrong. Exaample; my buddy has a parasitic narcissistic beyotch for a woman. She plays video games constantly to regulate her emotions. Shes horrible. Hes constantly fighting with her. She controls and isolates him. Its easy for me to say dump the loser but hes entranced for mulriple reasons. The root of pain is attatchment. Deal with it and heal or be destroyed, hurt etc. Leaky roof becomes leaky floor and collapsing wall n bad air. Its only going to get worse. Dont run. Cope. Good luck
For me it’s recognizing that positive, disciplined action has a delayed reward. Whereas emotions seem to need instant gratification, so we end up making the wrong choice, simply because we look for the instant reward.
Good video! The only thing that seemed a bit tacky was specifically recommending a Keto diet to lose weight. There are many ways people can lose weight, and also much easier than keto, for example plant-based.
I've discovered your videos last week and I think they are very inspirational. I am a Buddhist but find these as healing in my struggles for a better life as anything out there. I never knew Marcus was such a philosopher. Hope you will continue on, I recognize it much take alot of time and effort to produce these, thanks again
I am so happy and grateful that I do a gratitude list every evening! I've developed this skill some years ago and I still do it. It's amazing! I also found myself years ago the fact about "stop thinking, start doing". :) Still, I seem not to apply it all the time. As a child I was good at ignoring the naysayers and people who insult/offend. But recently, I seem to be affected by such people. Something to work on. I also need to work on the quality of my thoughts... some improvement this year, but still a long way to go... I don't understand the first point about the character. I take it as having values and sticking to them, but for me "character" means something else. I believe I am true to my words, own my actions, practise self love, and don't talk too much about myself (although, in front of some people I do - it is just their energy that makes me feel I am safe to do it). I also remind myself about death occassionally, but in the bad way. I need to turn it into motivation and inspiration to live life at its fullest. :)
Wow, this content on building self-confidence with insights from Marcus Aurelius is incredibly insightful and motivating! Thanks for sharing it. I found the emphasis on character development, self-acceptance, and taking ownership of our actions particularly impactful. It's a reminder to focus on what truly matters and take decisive action
It start in the mind. If your body is perfect but your have decaying thoughts nothing will improve. Many people work out for the wrong reasons, and end up even more depressed.
This is really good material! I just found out about your page and I absolutely love how you make it easier to understand ancient philosophers in a modern context.
It's really profound. But very complex. A person must dedicate his/her entire life to realise these traits. One other simple way which is very prevalent in Eastern philosophy : Meditation. No mind as they call in Buddhism. The fruits of Meditation are the traits listed in this video. Less theory/more action. The Zen way. Which ultimately raises the question : are there numerous ways to attain the same goal? Different philosophies put forward the same traits/ characters which help in making a complete human being. It is very interesting.

Thoroughly enjoyed the content, delivery and lovely accent...it was music to my ears💡✨ 👍 and will be sharing it w peeps- 1. Self Awareness 2. Self Examination 3. Self Determination = Progress towards Self Confidence 💚 the idea of daily: Gratitude + Success journal. I appreciate you PfL, You ROCK. Keep up the amazing work! P.s. glad you got rid of DS😉
This video is a Gem!! Thank you!! So inspiring an a saviour!! Keep the good work!! Gotta share it!! Blessings and More Stoic building circumtances!!!:)
"If you are overweight and someone calls you fat, you think less of yourself." - How can I not think that when even my parents keep telling me how bad my legs look or how I don't fit certain jeans well. When the people who made you talk you like this, trust me, you will feel very, very miserable.
"how can I not think that"... The answer is: just don't... this is easier said hard to do, but that's how it is (and for some reason generally women have harder time doing this). Detach yourself from what they say, if you must detach yourself from them. That's the only way. Don't believe what they say about you, make the decision to not believe. Then if and when you feel like losing weight (IF you actually need and want to), do so for yourself. If you do it because what others say or think about you, you may look better or be healthier, but you'll be as miserable as before, because people will say other shitty things about you. People like putting others down. So first change your attitude towards what others think about you. Don't base your self worth on it. Only you can make the decision not to. Decide so and stick to it. It may take some time to implement the decision, but be patient and stick to the decision.
Philosophies for Life: stop procrastinating and just start doing! Me: must watch another Philosophies for Life video to learn how to be more productive.
Sto provando a iniziare una condotta nuova nella mia vita, ogni giorno imparo un po' d'ebraico mentre cammino nella spiaggia. Lingue in realtà è la mia abilità! אני גם לומד איטלקית על-ידי אינטרנט עם חברים ישראלים שלי. יש לי קיבולת ללמוד ולהבין את שפות. אבל השפת אלהים בעצם השפה הכי יפה. אני טוב מאוד, תודה לאל!
Rendah hati..tidak selalu ingin lebih hebat dari siapapun..yg berada di tempat yg tidak tinggi jarang jatuh..yg dihebatkan doa dan kerja keras..kejar aja kerja keras..tapi tidak perlu merasa kita lebih hebat dari org lain
We can see a simple derivation from the 5 person average rule if you spend time only with yourself: You = ( You + 4*Nobody )/5 5*You = You + 4*Nobody 4*You = 4*Nobody You = Nobody When you spend time with no one, you become a nobody :( We should all band up and be a bunch of nobodies :)
Late af but you can "surround yourself with influential people through books, autobiographies. Theres something to be said about like reading the thoughts of some of the most important people to live.
Lmao got me at genetically its 50 percent out of your hands when it comes to confidence and the other 50 percent is you. I see why im tried and overwhelmed at times. Undoing the genetical part is not easy !
Kindness is not necessarily a virtue nor a sign of a strong character. Better to be temperate than kind, for the temperate are respected, whereas the kind are frequently seen as having a character that is nice, compromising and weak.
Interesting (and weird) promotion of the ketogenic diet amidst some "advice from" Marcus Aurelius (spotted amidst some very vague advice. Yet, I think these are a great start. People will need at least a little more than this, it's a great START.
watched full video...never so such quality content, precise and to the point video .......every point is relatable to me...Great work....It helped me a lot.......God bless you.
Very difficult to have a philosophy, without that type of society around you. Obviously, an emperor is never concerned with other people's opinion, unless it threatened his reign. An emperor could resort to wars to increase his confidence and status. He could also gather around him the best minds of the entire empire.

“The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.”

@@PhilosophiesforLife what is that nice quotes
I want to know!because the life is so good
Mine is black at the moment. 😞
Marcus Aurelius is hands down one of the greatest men who ever lived. Emperor, philosopher, hero, and total badass. He’s a role model for all ages.
He indeed is
Badass it is 😎
Better than all these worthless "influencers" on social media
@@brownpunk1794 Bit of a false equivalency there don't you think?
@@hectorosbert how so?

Yep, that's the only real way.
So should I date with a limp dick? To build my confidence with women?
Spoken like a true beta simp!
exposure and response, in a sense?
It's conditioning. Conditioning applies to all facets of life, mental and physical.
1. Build your character.
2. Self love.
3. Focus on your quality of thoughts.
4. Make a plan and stop thinking.
5. Be true to your words.
6. Own your actions.
7. Don't talk too much about yourself.
8. Remind yourself of death. memento mori
9. Ignore the naysayers.
10. Have an evening confidence ritual.
Am so grateful for this, Thankyou 🙏
Thank you
A person could have a much less effective or productive list than this.
This list is nice.
Concise.
Stay well.

Thank you Akshaya😊

I clicked on this video because I am lacking in self-confidence . And was looking for a way to help restore a belief in myself .
I have been weight training most of my life. It helps me. It gives me discipline and I look better.
I am so so envious of people that take what he says to heart
The challenge of the unknown future is so much more exciting than the stories of the accomplished past.
Already know most of this. However, knowing about it and implementing are 2 distinct things. Feel more depressed now after listening to this.
I'm implementing this already but I agree with you. That's probably why their wasnt much views on this
Confronting oneself can and is often s painful process of varying degree. We have a great mind. So do not slow it down. Its telling you something is wrong.

I'm in love with stoicism. Going to do more research, but I think it's something I can see myself committing to for a long time.
Haks 86 stoicism isn’t a way of life, it is THE way of life. Nothing else stands up to it
How is it going for you right now? 😁
Stoicism is the greatest philosophy ever written.

Working on "self-acceptance"...easier said than done. And, I like the call to "lists" at the end. Thanks.
I have been finding your videos so helpful lately. Thank you so much for your work.
The advice in this video is a lot easier said than done.
Exactly.
Someone once said, " You plan to fail if you fail to plan."
These lessons should be taught in school. How to manage your self esteem. 😊
A great collection of Stoic philosophy by Marcus A. I really enjoyed it. Thank you.
I am here because I’ve been cheated on by the same person for so many times before. Trying to build myself back again with philosophy. 🙂
Believe in yourself
Im a winner...selflove is really needed to enhanced and improve self esteem self confidence..
It's doesn't matter where you come from,never let society hold you back.
I am no better than, I am no worse than anyone else. I improve how I am to improve who I am, from my experience of how I was. X
It helps to portray your confidence with your body! Something that I've been practicing and it does work! :)
Yeah, right...
It start in the mind. If your body is perfect but your have decaying thoughts nothing will improve. Many people work out for the wrong reasons, and end up even more depressed.
Me- Nervously Tells manager I want a Raise
Also Me- " Memento Mori' ; Gets Raise and Gets all Confident
Simply put...thank you for your work. It is more helpful than you know.

I realized that I was becoming depressed recently. Faith, Daoist, and Stoic philosophies have done wonders to help. Thank you for these videos!
I watch it daily.
I believe the stoicism works.
Moreover its hard to quench your appetite .
I feel more focused
His observation that; there is no person so important as oneself,
yet, one's own opinion seems far
less important than other's.
Awesome videos! Make a video about stoicism on war please. Thanks 👍
One of my favorite channels hands down 💯
this is so stephen covey. i love the strength and simplicity of stoicism. it makes such sense that all their likenesses are carved out of marble
Thoroughly enjoyed the content, delivery and lovely accent...it was music to my ears💡✨
👍 and will be sharing it w peeps-
1. Self Awareness
2. Self Examination
3. Self Determination
= Progress towards Self Confidence
💚 the idea of daily:
Gratitude + Success journal.
I appreciate you PfL, You ROCK.
Keep up the amazing work!
P.s. glad you got rid of DS😉
Subscribed ! I love your videos !
Thanks so much
Self love does not mean becoming Narcissistic
Be humble
Super Video - thanks!!
Ignore all how people value or say about you. They don’t have power over your life. Only you who nurture all about yourself
loved your videos sir ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank You.
This is what I mean by me getting better advice on here then from actual people
I mean he is a person telling Us by just someone telling Me things...this is far more clear then any of the advice I've gotten
Thank you.
Lord Jesus Christ bless you.
7. Talking much about oneself is a basis for PR.
This video is a Gem!! Thank you!! So inspiring an a saviour!! Keep the good work!! Gotta share it!! Blessings and More Stoic building circumtances!!!:)
Who is the voice over to these videos - he sounds just fab and really a perfect fit!
"If you are overweight and someone calls you fat, you think less of yourself." - How can I not think that when even my parents keep telling me how bad my legs look or how I don't fit certain jeans well. When the people who made you talk you like this, trust me, you will feel very, very miserable.
Do you want a plan to lose weight for free?
I train people in strength and conditioning. ..
Bangla Health and Fitness in Syhleti She needs love. Not someone to sell her something
Your parents should not talk to you like that. Are they narcissists? Reasearch narcissism.
"how can I not think that"... The answer is: just don't... this is easier said hard to do, but that's how it is (and for some reason generally women have harder time doing this).
Detach yourself from what they say, if you must detach yourself from them. That's the only way. Don't believe what they say about you, make the decision to not believe.
Then if and when you feel like losing weight (IF you actually need and want to), do so for yourself. If you do it because what others say or think about you, you may look better or be healthier, but you'll be as miserable as before, because people will say other shitty things about you. People like putting others down. So first change your attitude towards what others think about you. Don't base your self worth on it. Only you can make the decision not to. Decide so and stick to it. It may take some time to implement the decision, but be patient and stick to the decision.
Philosophies for Life: stop procrastinating and just start doing!
Me: must watch another Philosophies for Life video to learn how to be more productive.
Thank you. Very succinct presentation!
Made me cry.
Loving yourself is called narcissism.
One of the best videos I watched in my life.....great teaching and great wisdom.
Thanks
Thank you very much 😑🙏🏼
Great stuff. Many thanks for sharing
Problem is ppl confuse "love" for "like or lust". Doing the best for self can be uncomfortable.

אני גם לומד איטלקית על-ידי אינטרנט עם חברים ישראלים שלי. יש לי קיבולת ללמוד ולהבין את שפות. אבל השפת אלהים בעצם השפה הכי יפה. אני טוב מאוד, תודה לאל!
The opening quote was Epictetus:)
9. Being affirmative is an ability to say “No”.
Rendah hati..tidak selalu ingin lebih hebat dari siapapun..yg berada di tempat yg tidak tinggi jarang jatuh..yg dihebatkan doa dan kerja keras..kejar aja kerja keras..tapi tidak perlu merasa kita lebih hebat dari org lain
13:40 "You are the average of the *five* people you spend the most time with"
What if we are living literally alone ?
Then you create your own unique thoughts
@@marquishoward9504 Guess I better see it like that ;)
Then you've hung around the wrong people in the past that made you afraid to create connections with others.
We can see a simple derivation from the 5 person average rule if you spend time only with yourself:
You = ( You + 4*Nobody )/5
5*You = You + 4*Nobody
4*You = 4*Nobody
You = Nobody
When you spend time with no one, you become a nobody :(
We should all band up and be a bunch of nobodies :)
Late af but you can "surround yourself with influential people through books, autobiographies. Theres something to be said about like reading the thoughts of some of the most important people to live.

Change your mindset. Read Stoicism and Orthodox Christianity.
Lmao got me at genetically its 50 percent out of your hands when it comes to confidence and the other 50 percent is you. I see why im tried and overwhelmed at times. Undoing the genetical part is not easy !
Thanks
Go back in time and change that moment that certain people proactively tried to hurt you in.
good video r.
I’m fairly certain the first quote is from the discourses, by Epictetus... great video nevertheless
This brought me to tears 😭
Kindness is not necessarily a virtue nor a sign of a strong character. Better to be temperate than kind, for the temperate are respected, whereas the kind are frequently seen as having a character that is nice, compromising and weak.
This channel is amazing! Thank you
Interesting (and weird) promotion of the ketogenic diet amidst some "advice from" Marcus Aurelius (spotted amidst some very vague advice. Yet, I think these are a great start. People will need at least a little more than this, it's a great START.
watched full video...never so such quality content, precise and to the point video .......every point is relatable to me...Great work....It helped me a lot.......God bless you.
Very difficult to have a philosophy, without that type of society around you. Obviously, an emperor is never concerned with other people's opinion, unless it threatened his reign. An emperor could resort to wars to increase his confidence and status. He could also gather around him the best minds of the entire empire.
Confidence is not a good thing. Now Clarity will carry you a long, long way!
