Fear is a dangerous component, hindering us from taking the bold steps we need in other to reach our goals. Nobody can become financially successful overnight. They put in background work but we tend to see the finished part.

@CharlieRhum 16 годин тому

I think it's not always about fear, Sometimes realistic factors discourage people from reaching their goals in life. For instance, I've tried investing in the stock market several times but always got discouraged by fluctuations of stock value.

@Brittny-zz1fz 14 годин тому

This is the problem! Most times people with little or no knowledge of the stock market try investing by themselves. It once happened to me, then I learned my lesson and seek an FA

@christopherbramwell8262 12 днів тому

Great subject to talk about. Everyone has different needs & wants to fulfill a work/life balance. Health activities are exercise and mindfulness. Yet, those are activities that require effort so some leisure has to take place. Something easy & enjoyful like watering flowers or painting or anything that is just fun. Something that you've been putting off will make you feel better in that you finally accomplished something that either needed to be done or that you just wanted to do. Sending an email or a letter to a friend is a great way to stay connected. Thank you, as always, for your advice Robert Greene.

Thank u, perfect timing. I had an exam for my Abitur, highest degree in germany required to enter a university etc. nearly 5 hours of writing, than I imediatly went to another appointment of mine and since there wasn‘t enough time to go home till the next one I‘m waiting since 3 p.m. (3 hours). Got nothing to do so I started feeling empty and though my depression is coming, quite commen for me I got a lot of hate and bitternes inside me besides being 18 mostly towards myself. Tried to read but aint helping much. Thank u for providing me information to name my demon and giving me advice how to deal with it.

@reddeliallisi2234 4 дні тому

Think about this. When we are bored, its not that we dont know what to do. Its that we feel something unbearable that we feel we cant change for the moment, so we disconnect from our feelings, thus feeling bored. Example: Waiting in line at the bankm we feel fustrated, but we cant change that, so we disconnect, thus feel bored.

Because of boredom, young people used to invent wild new fashions and new genres of music (e.g., rock-n-roll, reggae, hip hop, EDM). Not minor subgenres, but entirely new genres. Today, kids mostly dress like their parents and just stare at their phones. No Boredom = No Creativity.

Wow I thought I was going to hear something different funny enough realizing it is the opposite of what you would teach. I was thinking you would have to fight that boredom. I been not wanting to work on a person project for a few days now but I been slowly working on it while doing something after say 10 minutes that keeps me entertained for a bit. Realizing now, what work I have done for this has actually been better than if I were to force myself into this. I know the reason for procrastinating might be due to the unknown of how people will react to the project but just compromising with myself to work and do something mindless that is fun is helping me get into the work. Thank you for the video love watching these, been on 50th Law and love it so far going for 48 Laws of Power after I finish!

Chronic states of boredom with all of existence is what led to my substance abuse. I have found reading books to be the most effective way of dealing with this problem that I still struggle with daily. They tend to extend the periods of time in which I want to take a "hit" to stave off the feelings of boredom and powerlessness because reading things to completion cause a mild euphoric feeling that overcomes my cravings for extended periods of time. Plus, I become an expert in many random things.

@malcolmmacinnis247 12 днів тому

Yes Boredom is often quite useful because in many cases we get in our own way and create problems in order to manufacture a purpose whilst bored. Oftentimes I feel we sometimes have to step back and receive the boredom for a short period to simply allow ourselves a period of respite from issues. Can't say I always follow that sentiment, usually end up doing something hedonistic instead. But the sentiment is there

That’s an excellent explanation. In a matter of fact, and I’m speaking from experience just like the vast majority of us as I assume, instant pleasure activities consume much time, depleting your energy further more and leaving you with emptiness and a dark sense of guilt.. I know that choosing a slow productive action/ behavior, like reading a book or playing chess might be challenging, especially if you decide to start a project like learning a musical instrument, which might cost you the gamble of not sticking to it which might give you a feeling of failure or disappointment.. but what can you do instead if not doing something good to your mental health, scrolling social media forever? Sitting down with nothing to do but to live the feeling of boredom would be a much better option than scrolling.. in a matter of fact, I’ve found it to be peaceful and it’ll easily show you the best way to go.

I've been incarcerated multiple times and up until recently (at least in Wyoming) the only book of yours that had been blacklisted was The 48 Laws and I think without your guidance, I wouldn't be on the path I'm on today. Your work is greatly misinterpreted by D.O.C. I sincerely appreciate you and well. I just wanted to say that you truly had a positive impact on my life and I'm going to be devastated when there will no longer be anymore books of yours to read.

Boredom isn’t a thing. There is no “boredom.” There’s peace and contentment or the absence of peace and discontentment and this is what “boredom” is and it’s why we have so much hyperconsumerism, addiction, lack of commitment in relationships/ high divorce rate, family instability, etc. It’s the lack of peace and contentment.
