Become Antifragile: turn stress into growth

[@Krish-10]

Antifragility = Making of a diamond Qualities: 1. Facing possibility of failures (seeking hardships, discomfort, etc.) 2. Prevention irreversible harm of failures (smart & calculated risks) 3. Learning through failures (present failure = future success) Tool - Barbell technique: Major percentage of conservative methods and minor percentage of calculated (smart) risky methods.

[@TheeeDannyD]

As a guy who isnt in a great siutation, I work my job and am learning trading on the side. You put my mind at ease here.

[@peterschorn1]

The thing about using stress to learn and grow, is that this assumes the stress stops or at least lets up for some periods so we can recover, during which learning and growth occur. The analogy of the weightlifter applies here too: weightlifters (and all athletes) know that rest and recovery are essential to building strength, endurance or whatever. If all you did was work out, or even work out without adequate recovery, the organs they wanted to develop would actually *break down.* Now where I'm going with this is: how do we handle *chronic stress,* the kind that never lets up so we can recover? It's an increasingly prevalent feature of modern life and it mitigates against learning and growth by robbing us of the time and energy to do either.

[@Franko384]

Thanks for pointing this out. There is no Learning from stress, if there is no end to it. I think the Lesson we all need to learn is to push our own Limits while at the same time learning to accept that we might dissappoint others from time to time. Because in my opinion, modern day chronic stress, especially at the workplace, stems from trying to please everybody. Which is impossible.

[@melindawise4289]

This was a great comment! I feel terrible about being fragile. Truthfully, I was that child that was overprotected and sheltered from my own failures. I hate being this person. But I also have always had chronic and now severe anxiety. So, what do we do when it is so overwhelming and ongoing that the only way out seems to just quit life? Thank you for pointing this out. Because even people without severe anxiety deal with chronic stress because of modern life, as you said.

[@ScaryMango6755]

My teacher recommended we search about Anti Fragile last year, I regret not paying heed to her advice and checking it out back then, could help me not make some bad decisions I made

[@samuela6271]

In weight lifting, you are guaranteed to fail, its critical for growth, failure is the key motivation in growth, adaptation, and survival. Being fragile means fearing failure and avoiding growth. Good stuff to think about and grow on

[@diariesofanomad]

I think the way we can protect ourselves from irreversible damage, especially in the face of personal perfectionism, or punitive conditioning around mistake making, is compassion. We have to learn to forgive ourselves for not meeting an expectation or standard and then, in a way, reach the third stage of learning.

[@tylerl6942]

Absolutely. If you're too hard on yourself you just reinforce the internal gaslighter

[@diariesofanomad]

@tylerl6942 this is really easy and I'd say natural to do (in the sense of automatic), in many situations. How can we open our hearts up to more kindness and forgiveness for ourselves?

[@SearchOfSelf]

Stress can either break us or make us stronger. To become antifragile, you have to accept and welcome the unknown. Doing this requires a shift in mindset, as well as a commitment to preparing our body and soul to face pressure with resilience. It may take some effort and hard work, but the pay offs can be huge

3 qualities of antifragile : 1. Face possibility of failure - learn to take responsibility 2. Protecting self from irreversible harm of failure 3. Learn from their failures Barbell technique : combine hyper conservative activities with risky ones

You're giving very valuable insights in your videos. Right now I'm in a difficult point that could lead to exertion, so, getting to know some of these things and hopefully applying it is vital for thriving amidst these times.

Failure to get 100,000 views isn't necessarily failure. Sometimes you want to do a thing for it's own sake, because it is quality. You inspired me with your video on the forward escape, so much that I made a computer language "Forscape" in honour of that principle. Hacking away at that language got me through some very dark times. I think part of anti-fragility is having a purpose beyond validation.

[@gluteusmaximus5094]

but what if for example you are so drained from your dayjob (= your "protection") that you are too exhausted or "have no time" to take risks when you finally arrive at home in the evening? you are not happy with this job but you can't quit it because you lack the power to search for something new (= taking risks). what happens when you lose your protection?

Currently thinking about quitting my new job. It is very physically demanding. My fingers and wrists are swollen all the time and I can't even brush my teeth without pain. My whole body is just beyond messed up after a work day. I have no energy, will or much time to do anything other than sleep or lie down and it's never enough to really rest my body properly. I can quit and move on and I'm wondering if I should. Other than receiving the paycheck (minimum wage) in order to continue being alive, there's nothing good I can say about it. There is also a lot of psychological stress due to a colleague using every opportunity to raise his tone, answer questions with questions - portraying me stupid, belittling me etc without me having a real opportunity to say anything back. Not sure what to do either.

[@MusiicRoolz]

carpe diem my guy if you want to live under that protection and slowly die with it, you do you if this is something you have to put up with to reach a higher goal (ie making money for a specific purpose), that's fair if not, I only see it as an excuse to hide behind known safety/protection and to not be better

Yeah. It´s like going to a new kindergarten, new school, having a new girlfriend, having a new born baby, sitting on a new chair, going to a place you´ve never been before. The first experiences in our lives create our first moments of interaction and then you either go for something bigger than you are at the moment and you couldn´t imagine before or not. It´s like a new path that´s been set out before your own eyes. During your time you will learn what it takes to become successful and avoid what doesn´t work for you. I always thank my parents for raising me in antifragility because that´s what´s gotten me through. No matter how hard I felt on my face was always able to resolve new problems and rely on a new piece of mind which enabled me to move forward.

There was nothing about ethics or morality in this video 😂 Everyone is opportunist. Everyone serves own truth. It only shows how to deal with a problem. It's more optimist realism - taking the best out of worst, growing with every step. You can do it morally. In Christianity sense of good and evil free will sin is in your head anyway so it's subjective by default. It's the sense of humility that makes you moral and ethical hiding ego and tolerating other egie. it's not being pessimist and hiding or standing still, it's doing what you can everyday with faith in being protected from heaven and given equal opportunities if keeping eyes ope. it's not giving up. you can do it helping others being neutral or exploiting them so it's your choice how you will do it also in this world if you never are exploitive then it means you ask to being asskicked and not seeing assskicking coming if you can't be a bit evil at times you gonna loose to evil as you blind yourself to it's existence and it's ways we accept everyone has a bit evil inside we face own evil everyday and understand everyone has own demons no need to judge others and yourself too much nothing is perfect we just want it to be more good in final summary

So you are saying that we should try to solve structural burdens at the individual level? That seems to me to be a hyper-individualistic, depoliticised and thus ideological concept

[@szymonbaranowski8184]

he says to get the best out of worst circumstances adapt to whatever happens to you so next time you are more resilient to events he doesn't say to do anything with structural burdens itself he accepts it coming constantly and just learning to deal with it you assume many things without deeper thought and you see ideologies everywhere but never own right? 😂 you are born with individual and collective view you can't escape it but you can always consider things from one or other side He doesn't even understand what antifragility is... he says to accept own failures but learning from own mistakes is bad advice, we want to learn from mistakes of others avoiding problems in general or rather see them coming early he believes in improvement in a loop, like training muscles or memorising but in life you face different types of problems all the time, so if you learn to deal with one you are still volnurable to next and before problem repeats you may forgot solution to it or you may not keep up with problems coming so it is a bit that fooling yourself with theoretical growth a placebo effect of accepting stress as good thing a psychological trick which works as we totally are able to brain wash ourselves, it may give enough relief to start thinking clearer and conscious but it may also cause you fool yourself that's it's not so bad and stay stuck in toxic spot.... maybe that's the thing you really felt wrong about it here? it's also different if you find outcome as failure because you think so or were told it's failure or you made objective research and then came to truth things tend to have more that two sides often any one dimensional thinking if set to fail but we are great creatures that given enough feedback can figure stuff intuitively (except things are constructed around us to not let us do so)
