It was Schopenhauer in 1982 that saved my sanity when I was going through a painful breakup with my girlfriend, as I discovered she was cuckolding me with another friend. I read “Women, Love and Death” a condensation of his essays, it was through these words I mustered the valor to completely break free. I was 23 at the time, young and dumb…life lessons were learned. Arthur Schopenhauer started me In a long quest for knowledge and enlightenment, his legacy ensures his immortality…Cheers 🍻 to Arthur…Salud!

One of the best videos on this channel. Just when I was starting to get bored with life.

I love Schopenhauer’s works. Thank you for this excellent video. Well done

[@SearchOfSelf]

I think the best way to avoid boredom is to appreciate the beauty of everyday life. This way you can find joy in small moments and appreciate life more ♥

[@eastorange2482]

It's also beneficial to see the good in boredom. Boredom doesn't necessarily mean despair. When I get bored I want to revolt against that negative emotion and when I do, I feel worse. If I feel bored and embrace it, I actually feel a tranquility take over and after 30 minutes the emotion suddenly dies away and I feel good. Of course this is all personal experience so it won't be true for everyone.

[@theon9575]

To me boredom just means, find something (else) to do that I don't find boring. But I pity people who must do boring repetitive work and cannot escape the boredom.

[@Danko_Sekulic]

Every stupid video about boredom regurgitates what you said. You should check out those. This is one of the few YT videos on boredom that doesn't celebrate it.

[@carolineg3079]

Found this video today by accident. So timely. I'm retiring in 6 months and although I know it's the right decision today I was worrying about getting bored. This was the universe saying don't worry

Being bored can unjustly led to more boredom! Filling that space with some sort of pleasure may help. Stay focused on the present moment Learn something new take up a hobby and find resources! Ex….when taking a walk and suddenly you feel bored start looking at nature and other sights! I found that to be hilarious! Not the looking at nature part the idea of getting bored on a walk! Use your resources to find the hobby you would enjoy and go from there!

[@Nicoladen1]

I never realized the genius of Shopenhauer until I watched this video. I've heard very few people talk about the reality of past and future in the way he's described them here. To most people they seem all too real to abandon, and yet it lies in the abandonment of time that we find our way back. Where we are able to live once again through the eyes of a child. Because we're never really growing up, but distant. The only thing that grows is our involvement with abstract thoughts about abstract concepts such as purpose, happiness and identity. All of which are conceptions of language, not experienced realities.

[@Nicoladen1]

Boredom is but a name for a state of mind in which one fails to be present to anything but thought. Which means thought is boring. Experience is fun. Thought can make experiences less fun. But less thought makes experiences more fun.

[@shahlabadel8628]

Arthur Schopenhauer greatly admired Siddhartha Gautama and his teachings, interestingly enough Buddhism was the only religion/philosophy that Schopenhauer did not bashed as he was a nonbeliever.

[@tonysandy7803]

Boredom is the opposite of pain in that it is lack of stimulus, where the latter is overstimulation.

This is the same advice listed 6 ways. Schopenhauer didn’t live in the modern age, and their advice is idealistic, filled with he believe and it might. You can do everything listed, and still face boredom and it’s dire consequences.

Funny, the picture of Schopenhauer on the thumbnail (the photo displayed on the video) makes him look like he's suffering from constipation or some such misery, poor guy...!😄

[@realMartinHamilton]

Remember that pessimists are usually right but it's the optimists that change the world. Optimists focus on the WHY and tend to be the dreamers like Walt Disney but need the people like Schopenhauer to cultivate the HOW. Walt Disney only made it because of his brother who was skilled in the banking industry and ran the finances which kept Walt out of continual and reckless bankruptcy.

[@theon9575]

And if you really can't avoid or manage your own boredom, then at least keep it to yourself. People who announce "I'm bored" are often just revealing themselves as boring or dull people. 🥱
