Diverse range of mental health struggles and stressâ
Psychologically rich â

this is why i sometimes feel shitty about my teen years being lost to depression cuz what came out of it wasnt any beautiful soulful crying sessions, deep love, deep emotions, but instead a constant avoidance and numbness. nothing beautiful came out of my pain

Hey man, love your work. Iâm an elementary art teacher in Chicago. Virtually all my students battle trauma and poverty. I want to get them interested in psychology in hopes of enriching their perspectives on introspection, creativity, the joys of achieving flow and everything. Your videos would be just a shade over their heads (10-14 year olds). Have you considered making any videos aimed at a slightly younger audience? Just a suggestion, but please keep doing what youâre doing!

Iâm quite fond of this standard of a good life. It ensures one is happy quite frequently, while also not robbing that happiness of its meaning through a lack of unhappiness.

Over the past year, my therapist and I have been working on this idea!
We've coined this as "The Pendulum of Life" rather than the title of this video.
Some days the pendulum will be on the "extremely happy" side, but it will absolutely swing back to the other side to the "extremely sad" side of the pendulum
This idea can be applied to many things, like sometimes my brain is super curious and wants to learn, sometimes it's full full full.
This is such a validating video, thank you Sisyphus

5:34 "Psychologically rich experiences on the other hand involve an active self-exposure to destabilizing events... we might try a food we never would have thought we would like." Interesting, because this is exactly the advice I got from a HealthyGamer video! I love seeing how these philosophies intersect like this.

Personally I have always kinda felt that the fact we don't feel joy or content for long periods is a chemistry thing. Like because we never feel content, because we always want more, we always will be motivated to keep going.
It's simultaneously a positive and a curse. Being proud of something is always a fleeting thing, we have to continue doing more things to make ourselves proud again else we begin to stagnate which breeds a horrid restlessness.
I have always found that if I am unhappy for long periods it means I must go through hardship to turn into a person which is happy with their accomplishments. Be it having slacked on projects, fallen off the wagon for working out, etc. It is hard to start said things again, but feels wholeheartedly rewarding when I do.
I find the great issue now is that we have so much that gives instant gratification. Games which flash shiny lights at you, bombastic movies, etc. All fine in the short term but if one finds themselves spending their whole day on it, it turns hollow and sour. The person still gets a drip feed of momentary joy but must suffer more and more frustration to get said joy, in the end spending much more time on a net negative experience than it would've taken to get true enjoyment from a task that has delayed gratification.

Happiness is like a candle; for it to be noteworthy, you need to be in a dark room. You canât enjoy itâs radiating glow in a well lit room.

This is how I live my life, and it's one of the best decisions I've made. Very worth it

Itâs really weird because the last three videos youâve made Iâve had basic thoughts about prior to the videos being posted itâs like youâre here to confirm my beliefs and enrich my understanding of them, thanks manâŚfor everything you do. Youâre doing something good here

Sounds like an intrinsically motivated life to me. The intrinsically motivated life is where itâs at. Worth lookin into if you liked this video.

Iâve just considered myself a an âexperience junkieâ for a long time. Even things that are uncomfortable are fun or at least fulfilling since they expand how I see things. I never knew that there was an actual term for this. Thank you for the new knowledge!

I read a book by Franco Berardi, The Soul at Work, student of Felix Guatarri and Gilles Deleize who you might be more familiar with. He speaks about reshaping the way you(and everyone) think about wealth from wealth being the accumulation of wealth and instead wealth in time in order to liberate yourself from the pressures of capitalism and to be able to see the pointlessness in spending such a large portion of our life at work and instead build a world free from it.

This makes me feel that I have been living correctly. What you call "The Psychologically Rich Life" I call collecting novel experiences, learning, and progressing. Travel is super important here. We get fresh eyes in a new place. It puts our brains into learning mode, and it gives me energy that I cant get elsewhere.

Im working on my college applications and I cant tell you how well times this video is. My most important on is essentially about living happily vs with achievement and this video is really giving me the tools and other perspective to help describe my views.

8:00 is exactly what I thinking about while walking my dog. There are almost infinite political parties/groups you can associate yourself with to have a better understanding of the world. But due to how expansive and continuously changing the world is, these political parties aren't enough to fully grasp an actual deeper understanding of the world.

thank you sisyphus, the most important things in life arenât what makes me happy, and my entire life i believed that to be true. now i know it isnât what makes me happy that is important, it isnât me as a person, my intelligence, how charismatic i am, or attractive or whatever surface level things that will make my life important, itâs how i choose to look at life.

The message, the voice are for sure things I love about Sisyphus, but cinematography would always be what makes Sisyphus Sisyphus to me. Thanks for another great video!
