Humble The Poet: ON How To Stop Self Pity | ON Purpose Podcast Ep.10

It’s so easy in the world that we live in where everyone sees quotes on Instagram, motivational sayings everywhere, to think you’re deep...without being deep.
So today we’re going to do some unlearning with our wordsmith of a guest - Humble the Poet.
We talk about becoming conscious of and taking ownership over your unconscious biases, unlearning old habits and ideas that may no longer serve you, and how to not only survive but thrive.

Thank you so much for having me Jay and thanks for all the wonderful messages from folks who really connected with this conversation and got the book. I appreciate you all. Much Love.

[@cjzenarosa6270]

Humble The Poet one of my favorites from Jay’s podcast!! This was full of wisdom and I really took a lot from it. Thank you for sharing!! And btw I bought the book a love it!! Can’t wait to gift it to family and friends!!

[@saniyasohani9577]

You truly live your name, HUMBLE!

[@miumiu8394]

Thank you so much. I felt offended when you said that we use excuses and self pity to comfort our selves as I was crying over a test I failed. Also the other day I came across a video about how nothing lasts forever even our moments of glory and I skipped it because I refused to think that I'm going to be sad anytime soon . Early twenties are a roller coaster ❤

[@LetsBeClear87]

This was a great conversation. I always feel unburdened after you talk, it’s the way you unpack topics. There’s something to it, equally natural and systematic. I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on and conversations with people like Jordan Peterson, Russel Brand and Christina P (of ‘that’s deep bro’ podcast fame)

[@CosyFoodie]

Such a stunning conversation, it's hard to pick a favourite part :) Hope I get the chance someday to meet and chat with you about the creative life. Until then, I'll keep an eye out for your books.

[@chanisecarvalho5869]

Thanks man

[@osse1n]

*Self-pity is lack of self love.* We wouldn't be here if it wasn't meant to be. Cut off all distractions and learn to love yourself. - Meditate to calm your mind - Spend time on your own without distractions, especially digital ones - Eat healthy and exercise Give yourself time, rebuilding a healthy relationship towards the self take time

[@titlespree]

*Life is unfair sometimes, but self pity won't make the situation any better.*

[@mayumikakizaki9606]

Mindprovement, I think Self-Pity takes you to places, WHEN you are taught that it’s Self-Pity that you are going through. Self-Pitiers do not know that they are, unless someone tells them!

[@kaydalton8279]

What a beautiful man, I’m 65 and I have just learnt I have so much more to learn, Thankyou x

[@prajwalgraphy8430]

On purpose has to be one of the best podcast ever like who agrees

[@HumansOfVR]

*Self pity is easily the most destructive of the non-pharmaceutical narcotics; it is addictive, gives momentary pleasure and separates the victim from reality*

[@anisjemmapes5033]

The video is too long,could plz tell me what's self-pitty is? And why it is not good ?

[@carneliansound1125]

Its when you feel sorry for your self. Its not good because it usually doesnt lead to you changing the issues you resent.

[@Fahad-gf1wx]

Im suffering from it

[@arashghanbari5907]

My goodness, This guy probably had one of the most profound impacts on my brain just with this talk. Can't wait to read his book. His level of awareness is very impressive.

[@epicherbalism]

Every time I listen to one of these I have to pause it at least 3 times to get a journal out and really think about, practice and remind myself of these beautiful ideas. Thank you!

[@madhurichakraborty1254]

Humble's range of vision , objective and perspective are ultimate and just was sounding so real as if happenings of each one of our life.Liked the way he differtiated 'self pity' &' self compassion '. Enjoyed and learned watching your podcast.

[@Ajeet-Yadav-IIITD]

Dear sir please make video on *How to Stop Overthinking about whatever happened to us in past* *Each night I can't sleep due to Overthinking* 🙏🙏🙏

[@joythinker739]

Stop thinking about the past , it wont pay for your bills.

[@varshsadhna4218]

Do Meditation 😉

[@juliaposadas3218]

Take responsibility in everything that happened to you in the past. It's not the same as taking blame. Taking responsibility means you need to figure out how you want to proceed. How you can use it to help yourself have a happier life

[@JaneyImaaniEmotionalAwareness]

“Self pity is like fast food” 👌🏽💕

[@mr.badass5292]

Man i LOVE these on purpose podcasts Jay's having man. He's definetely going ham AF this year. He's totally revolutionizing the way we see daily problems and he's making very important wisdom and acts of love so digestable to the mainstream at an alarming rate -which is very rare! So happy to see this! You're doing god's work, literally. Keep it up!

[@kishanabear]

This is the level of communication that I need, the level of understanding that speaks to my soul! There are no coincidences... I woke up at 4am to this playing on KZbin... thank you Universe!!!

[@MFBOOM100]

Wow im impressed by his teaching. Truly wise and insightful.

[@lindagabela182]

From South Africa, we neeeeeed moreee podcasts 😭😭😭😭♥️

[@studyme-selftaughtlife4958]

*Self-Pity is never going to push you to go further.* It’s the forgiveness, mindfulness, and consistency that will make your goals achievable. Realize when you’re doing the actions that are unpleasant, forgive yourself, and stop immediately. Consistency keeps this loop running.

[@MaryManion]

Both of you are such rays of sunshine for my mind. Thank you

[@ashasharma4554]

This podcast with Humble was so inspirational and insightful..thank you Jay and Humble

[@wendierogers464]

I'm so grateful for finding this post, for taking time out for myself and listening, I'm so grateful that you're figuring out for the rest of us and sharing. I feel grateful for today.

[@Zarghami]

*The moment you STOP blaming other people and START to take responsibility for your own life is when you start to see your world change.*

[@hercrazyworld_]

Yes!!!!!!!

[@laquaiathomas6396]

Yes I agree

[@mani-ksb]

Love this, 2 of my fave people. Stay humble. Humble souls. 🙏

[@thatimokoena8357]

You two

[@madiiha90]

thank you humble for making me cry in the first 3 minutes of this video. How do i go on now? I have always loved you as a friend of Lilly's as a fellow Torontorian and as a super cute sikh boy lol, but to finally hear you express your thoughts, i can see why you're so beautiful on the outside

[@vanhoudtshoorn]

tests and difficulties makes us strong. yes we need to act. love this podcast. thank you

[@EboniLilliana]

I needed to hear that! Thank you so much, Humble and Jay! What a great chat that really got me thinking clearly on so many important subjects that are floating in my life right now. Specifically, hearing that you (Humble) put your book out and it was a best seller in Canada, and it still had spelling mistakes, and that it's more important to put things out there and finish them, and take that chance, than it is to make it perfect. Jen Sincero, in her book, You're A Badass, said done is better than perfect. And this was kind of the final push I needed b/c I just put my first book out, and I'm selling it on Amazon for 6.99, a reasonable enough price and my mom thinks it's too low. Where as me, I thought I'd just throw this book up on my blog for free cuz it was more likely to be read by more people. But deep down, it was really because I hadn't had it professionally edited, so I figured it wasn't worth the money. Mean while I spent almost two years working on this concept and then the year of actual writing, not to mention to countless hours I put into the editing and formating process, right. So it was liek this back and forth moment of, it's worth the money, it ain't worth a dime. So, shit I wrote so much lol THANK YOU! I really needed to hear that. -E

[@openureyes2thetruth1]

Very true. Done is better then perfect. No such thing as perfection. Its a fassad.

[@priscilla9995]
