Top Comments of this video!! :3
Writing connects us to ourselves more than typing. Typing is universal, writing is unique, a fingerprint of our nervous systems, no two hands the same. Our writing morphs from the childish scrawl to our adult hand and then back to the shaky scrawl of the elderly. People have complained about my handwriting, I tell them as long as I can understand it, its fine. š¤£

I love your comment about being bored by the idea of an AI version of yourself. The idea of replacing an individual is a failure of imagination because that assumes people will continue to be an extrapolation of who they have already been. Being in my late 30s, I definitely don't want to live out the rest of my life as just a derivative version of who I am now. So glad to see another classic Chase video in the feed. Keep it up, man!

This video came along at a great time in my life. I am on the path moving towards making decisions based on honest and clear thought processes rather than having it clouded by worrying about what others will think. And, working on being my best 63 yr old self rather than having the constant chatter (advertisements etc) of recapturing youth floating around in the background!

Ohhhh, how I needed to hear this today. Seriously. Just found your channel this evening when I was searching for stuff about notebooks. That's the first one I saw. Hook, line. So I watched the one about pens. Sinker. Just had to subscribe. Saw this one recommended and felt a sizzle in my brain and now it's totally fried, but in the best way. Thank you from a new butterfly fresh from the goo.

Love it Chase! Ram Dass talks about "who you think you are" a lot. Here's a favorite quote - "āMost people are afraid that if they look at what is, they will breakāthat there will be too much for you. And I would say it is too much for who you think you are, it is not too much for who you are.ā

Thank you Chase. Those who watch this in video full will appreciate that you are indeed doing your best to be authenticāespecially compared to the sea of YouTubers and content creators who're always trying to find the next wave of click-bait videos. Deep down, we yearn for people who're authentic and contain strong first principles. We'll always be prisoners to others if we're mostly caring about what they think of us via external validation (I myself have suffered from this in my past). Inevitably, life will often require us to take a leap of faith into the unknown for each new chapter of our lives. Change (whether good or bad) is inevitable, but embracing it and growing with it in each of the many chapters of our life will help us find our true selvesāand who we want to (ought to) become.

Thanks for this video Chase. Am at a point in life where this is spot on, because I am seeking my authentic self where I lost it in the recognition that I was seeking from work. Honestly that isn't worth it. Now on a journey to figure out how to embed it and change my life because It was all I knew. It isn't easy, TBC.....

I bought some field notes, because I needed a new notebook, but also, I appreciated this talk. Deciding not to pursue recognition has been something I have tried to make a guiding principle in my life. It's been more difficult at work than I'd like to admit, mainly because many jobs are about developing "brand awareness" of yourself. Being able to speak to your accomplishments, is a skill that is needed in all careers, but doing this with the correct intent is tricky. No answers here, just observations, it sure is difficult not to assimilate into 9to5ness - and it sure does feel like people partition their personalities based on the communities they operate it. I hope we can all figure out how to be our whole selves everywhere we go.

You're skirting on stoicism, Marcus Aurelius wrote, "we all love ourselves more than other people, but care more about their opinion than our own."
