Don't Disappear For A Year | Avoid Isolation

Law 18: Do Not Build Fortresses to Protect Yourself-Isolation is Dangerous. Never isolate yourself when you come under pressure. This just cuts you off from the information you need and people who could help you, and when real danger arises you won't see it coming. Instead, make a point of being outgoing.

I like to practice periods of focus rather than “isolation”. I find if you’re straight up with people and just tell them you’re trying to focus on something important to you, for a week, a month, whatever, the people that really care for you will respect that. You don’t need to go MIA from life though.

I like that, that’s something that can also be incorporated instead of vanishing like the avatar

It's as simple as what WORKS for individuals and not listening to absolutes from others. I did a few years of "isolation" and it was an amazing addition to my evolution. 🙌🏾 We all have AUTHENTIC phases that we need to recognize and honor. Thought provoking as always!🙂✅️

This topic is definitely a touchy subject, and I can't fully agree with this one. Self isolation can be bad and lead to further problems, like PTSD, becoming a 'hermit' (or maybe that was their intention...), like you said as well create depression and anxiety... but it also happens because of a person's unique circumstances, so it's the events in their unique life that is what might potentially build up to the (possibly necessary) self isolation... Or maybe just avoiding specific toxic persons that might be worsening the individuals symptoms. Telling someone "just be around people and you'll feel great" or "just grow up" isn't enough to teach others to learn how to cope with their unique traumas and develop from it. "You need people, you need information" we have computers for information, and a quarter of the time it's more accurate... People are about half accurate, because they're living through a life that's being impacted by their overall wellness, they're not an algorithm.. but some people have a hard time differentiating. We have so much happening all at once. And man the more I watch this video the more I gotta disagree. Just being there with other people, just laughing, being present.... You can only do that for so long, until it becomes a bigger problem and people don't like you for other reasons. Sometimes your friends / family are the problem... And it might even be that you yourself are the problem, but that is why l will recommend a few of the playlists on my channel so you can understand what a hermit is and why they choose to be that way.. the videos speak better logic than I can about these scenarios, I just organized them. Firstly, we hermits lack socialization skills, so if you go to my channel, under the first group, Social Wellness, I would recommend the Social Media and Internet & Technology Effect. Secondly, in the next group Intellectual Wellness, I'll always recommend the Self Realization - Mental Health playlist, but it's good to understand there's a lot of reasons to want time to ones self to think and process, but then I'd recommend the Personal Relationships / Loneliness playlists. There are different attachments styles, and there's a socialization epidemic happening in our society that's been boiling over since the start of the automotive and technological boom. There's also a playlist for Anxiety / Depression / Stress as well as Narcissism / Toxicity, Self & Mutual Respect (still working on that one in multiple ways)..... The human mind is a complex situation. But then after going through all of those, you'd eventually lead over to the Self Actualization & Action playlist, where you can try to take action on improving yourself (hopefully with professional help). To expand more on depression anxiety and those types of conditions, you can also go over to the Mental Illnesses / Disorders of the Mind (+the stigma) playlist that would cover it into further depth (also watch Hi Ren and Su!cide by Ren, those should still be in there. Mental health is a growing problem and probably the biggest necessary change in the 21st century, to actually progress and be better as a society).

I loved this video. It makes a lot of sense and it's something I really needed right now. HOWEVER, In the end you mentioned about how none of your friends in real life know about your yt channel, that none of them know what you really got going on in your life... And I can't help but think, isn't that isolation anyway? Isn't that living double lives? and from their perspective doesn't it suck that you're not being real with your homies about your goals and visions?

[@BlackPositivityChallenge]

Great point! I think isolation for a period is great for growth. Sometimes we're too embarrassed to grow and become our new version in front of ppl that "know us" as our older version. 🙃

Needed to hear this, thanks

same glad i clicked on the vid

[@Eli.G12]

You’re very welcome

[@ayannamarie123]

Yes! I did the whole “focus on yourself for 6 months” and wanted to keep going but it’s just not sustainable & now that I’m opening up again things are getting easier bc I’m able to have friends & family that introduce me to opportunities or help me. But when I isolated they felt like I wasn’t accessible.

[@centuryfiles9558]

I heard someone say on tt "when you see someone who has their sh together, they most definitely have help. Whether that's from their friends, family, communities, even the govt" No one is an island

[@Eli.G12]

Yes, exactly. When you fall, it’s easier to get back up when you have a strong community willing to pull you up

[@mridhulml3269]

@@centuryfiles9558very true!

[@ShermanBMason]

I have an issue doing this. Thanks for sharing.

[@mekaartstudy]

You are tapped in god. I got a similar download recently. I keep telling people this and they don't listen they stay hidden and refuse connect with people. What is true is my light was a quote today. I saw today and light is seen and public and worldly and about learning from the world. Going public and contacting with other minds is also how you save your life and connect to God.

[@centuryfiles9558]

this modern capitalist hellscape loves promoting extreme isolation and individualism, when that is known to cause mental illness like depression. We should all strive to grow through and for our communities.

[@ladybird491]

Your channel is wonderful. I think you should know, yt is pushing more the live videos, they are getting the higher views. You also need to upload videos based on your audience visiting time, check your analytics in your audience section, lots of love!
