“Living in fear is just another way of dying before your time.”

1. Get inspired. 2. Randomly tear up. 3. Euphoric creative state. 4. Realize fear of failure/success will strike back soon.
That's too familiar. Thank you for showing, once again, that we are not alone experiencing the scary side of full humanness ❤🔥

i think the worst part is being aware you're living in fear, so aware of it so many times a day, and still...doing nothing about it. doing nothing about what makes you afraid or why. i'm in therapy but that's only half the battle. they teach you how to act, but if you're too afraid to act, then you're just taking lessons in a subject you never intend to master.

I'm scared of starting something and actually becoming successful. It feels like it would be too much pressure. The thought of succeeding makes me so anxious but I am also terrified of failure as well. I want to be great. But my entire existence pushes against it.

I never thought you would talk about Krishnamurti; he is such a treasure. Expanding upon what you mentioned in the video, he also says something very fascinating. Basically, his fundamental view is that everything that happens (whether outside us or inside us) is a totally new and unique moment that has never happened before and will never repeat itself again. He asks whether we really feel "fear", or, rather, do we simply project our individual anxiety on what is a completely unprecedented affect?
Are we really 'afraid' or are we simply rushing to label what's happening inside us because it's too scary to live with something totally new?
The realization of this is what he calls "freedom from fear". He doesn't intend for us to be stoics, but very much the opposite. He wants us to feel whatever we're feeling so intensely, so utterly, never naming it, that we are wholly liberated from trying to escape ourselves, our emotions, what-is.

I've done a couple of things recently that I've been too afraid to do before like: walking my dog at midnight, randomly doing pushups in the middle of a road or walking shirtless through the streets and these activities brought me such a feeling of freedom that made me realize that it's not worth it to live in the world of what ifs instead of just doing stuff you want to. As a certain #1 mage sang: "The less you think, the more you win". Thinking is meant to protect you from danger. By overthinking about simple stuff, you give up control to fear and that's why you live as a coward and not yourself. Take that control back and just do what you want. Yes, it is that simple. Just do it. Overthinking is a waste of time. Don't think too much.

I have a fear that I’m not “built” for living or existing here. I’ve been trying really hard to do things even though they give me major anxiety but everything is overwhelming. I don’t know, might as well go after what you want “the time will pass anyway” and “do it scared” are two of my favorite quotes

Yet again he makes another well timed video-

The relationship between thought and uncertainty is indeed tumoultous and rocky. We as humans are like kids stuck between the parents with a broken marriage, constantly fearing what lies ahead or rather how different things could potentially become.

After attempting suicide when I was in my late teens and having a near death experience, I was faced with what I believe was ego death, however I had no guide nor the cognitive framework ready for when I didn't die to process what I had experienced. It destroyed me (I have complex ptsd as well from many things before & after) and I have been swirling in a void of in-betweenness ever since. I only started resurfacing at the start of the pandemic when I was faced with a similar isolation as the one that had ultimately led to my suicide attempt. I am still working on rejoining the world again at 30 years old but your video has really put some things into perspective for me. Thank you for showing me a different level in the simulation :)

Patiently waiting for “the fear of dying” counterpart. Not being able to see out my goals or ambitions to the best of my ability is alarming.

Looking at the fear of living through the psychedelics lens is fascinating.
People can experience "ego death" while tripping; it's a complete loss of a sense of self. In this state, one is directly faced with the incomprehensible and absurd. The "goal" is to release your fear and live completely in the now, however insane it may seem or however helpless you may feel.
That experience sounded a hell of a lot like you described any other moment, tripping or not. Living in the present is absurd and incomprehensible. It's hard to let go. But when you're able to, beautiful things happen.

I was watching this in the kitchen while doing some work and the part about sorrow for encountering the world “as it is” made me want to pause the video and let the point you were making marinate a bit.
It made me think of how I got bullied relentlessly in school through the near entirety of my compulsory education years. Thinking about that made be have to confront the feelings I associate with that fact pretty head on and I cried a bit.
Immediately as I was doing this, I realised the radio was on (y’know, just as idle background noise) and it was playing Mambo No. 5. I immediately found the contrast of the situation very funny and laughed while crying at the absurdity of this meta-meta situation I experienced just as I was watching a video on this whole schtick.
This is the kind of human experience I want to etch into my very being. Just these little things that contrast deep, absurdly meaningless suffering and make such things a bit easier to live with.

One of my biggest fears is that I’m not actually cut out for it. Like I dream of being a writer, and in my head that dream can be realized and I can always imagine being an incredible writer. But if I try to write and end up being horrible, or can’t make ends meet once it comes to a point where I need to make actual sacrifices, suddenly the dream is dead. The only way I can assure it survives is by making sure it’s never realized.

That reminded me that I have absolutely no idea how to live my life anymore.

I love your videos man but sometimes it’s really hard to watch them. It takes so much out of me emotionally. Regardless I love it and I love you!

I’m just a fan, you didn’t have to make a whole video just for me. I’m honored 🥺🥰💐
