kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5quo2CfZZdlo7s Excess money forces investment in technology and creates forced unemployment. People can't achieve the technological knowledge demanded by the market because that changes very fast. The Progressive Growth of the Money Supply Principle (year 2013) will stop this madness, because the Principle tells us the exact quantity of new money the economy needs to works correctly, driving us to the Wicksell interest rate or natural interest.

"The ability to manage emotions is linked with the ability to pay attention." I felt that!

[@Dman9fp]

@Zoe There's lots of flavors of bipolar. Not sure how much he went into it-- but yeah-- There are whole systems of the mind controlling us outside our active consciousness. Some say it is like another person. This is what ad companies target to win us over. Our feelings/ intuition/ subconcious, or whatever you wanna call it. Of course yes, when we observe it, the irrational parts can be brought to light and corrected/ prevented. Of course stress/ very stressful situations muddle things up/ if we are or become sensitive enough, things can go out of our control (the higher order thinking parts of the brain shut off and subconscious literally takes over when we are stressed enough; the brain is a funny thing, but makes sense evolutionarily when being attacked at least, for sure. Anxiety is a killer too tho, and the demons can be imaginary yet all too real in the mind. Gratitude and working on resilience/ prevention can go a long ways)

Méditation is just based on that, when you pay attention to your breath and avoid being distracted by your thoughts you can calm your mind. Our thoughts change the way that we feel, which subsequently changes the way that we act. It's called the cognitive triangle and it's the foundation of CBT therapy.

[@ryananthon8426]

"The exercise is not keeping your mind focused (...) it's: when it wanders, bring it back". The most spot on, clearest, simplest, most brilliant approach to defining meditation I've ever seen. This right here is the moment I've finally got it. Thank you.

This is practiced for the first 3 days in a 10 day Vipassana meditation course. 4th day onwards actual Vipassana practice starts. But these 3 days bring very good focus and sharpness.

[@elfullin]

This is only one layer of meditation. Some schools don’t consider using mental force or energy to bring back focus as meditation. Instead, letting the mind wander BUT being the watcher of the mind, is of a higher and deeper level of consciousness. To bring back the mind from wondering required you to entangle yourself with it. Subverting your awareness for thought.

[@jigneshpadia]

1. Performance peaks at 110% of attention or mindfulness. 2. Focus can help with mastery. 3. Mind wandering can be good when looking for a creative solutions. 4. Poor attention results in distraction which in turn results in stress. 5. There are three types of Empathy. Empathetic concerns, cognitive and emotional. 6. Paying attention is a rare commodity these days. 7. It can be improved through practice. Its like a muscle. 8. Use breathing buddy for kids to help with mindfulness practice 9. Practicing breathing can help gaining more attention and mindfulness. Focus on breath. 10. Manage emotions - Red, Yellow, Green.

I happened onto this video while I was driving during a particularly frazzled period. I was driving to distract myself so I drove for a couple of hours which allowed me to listen to the entire lecture. When the video arrived at the part about how breathing exercise shifts the brains activity from right to left, I began to focus on my breath for the next 30 minutes. By the time my drive ended, my frazzled state dissipated. I left so relieved. Thank you Mr Goleman!

[@DasypusN]

How is it that this man takes so many of the topics I find the most interesting in the world today and has united them in the first 37 minutes of this lecture??? We are often so aware of the dark side of the internet but the access to this kind of insight at the touch of a key is something to be deeply grateful for and will maybe help us find our way out of the confusion of today's world. Thank you Google and the architects of the internet, Daniel Goleman, and all the humans who have contributed to the ideas he talks about in this lecture. Most importantly I am so glad there are so many of you out there- currently 1,741,574 of you- who take the time to pay attention!

[@chelseaj3817]

I love how Daniel Goleman shut that dude down towards the end, as he came with an already made inductive argument of an entire group of people and children being all violent , and all tainted due to their genetic makeup. He reaffirms that the behaviors are largely situational, not genetic. That same dangerously small minded rhetoric was the basis of writings like the "Willy Lynch Letters".

[@UnknownAbraham]

He used the strategy he mentioned in the lecture when he was talking about boys playing soccer. One of the kids was "insulted" by the other one but this smart kid who had high emotional iq turned the insult into to a compliment... Basically Daniel complimented and even agreed with the person asking the question but gave totally different kind of answer that the person was hoping or waiting for. In other words Daniel did not take the bait and turned the tables...

[@dbsk06]

That was the best and most polished and polite response to a question that was posed out of preexisting anger and ideology that was not actually intended to improving understanding but reaffirming the questioner’s existing views.

[@johnsamuel2401]

Great observation.

[@patrickgrengs8552]

What you choose to interpret as preexisting anger is the expression of a very well-researched field. The science on race, in terms of morphology, physiology, biochemistry, intelligence, delayed gratification, disease resistance, behavior, performance and culture make it vitally clear that there exist vast differences between the races. Race is real. Race exists. As such, there are individuals who look upon race as Race Realists. Do you have a tough time differentiating between a Pygmy and a Western European? That bell curve very simply and beautifully illustrates why Africa and Haiti are brazenly high-fertility, corruption-plagued hell-holes and why Ashkenazi Jews have earned a vastly disproportionate number of Nobel prizes. As the member of the audience pointed out in the question, reporting on these differences often gathers the wrath of the indignant who would rather ignore the painfully obvious and anoint the 'underprivileged' as victims. To wit: It is scarcely the same thing to put a man on the moon as to put a bone in your nose.

I have adhd. I would love for our brains to be studied. Many of us are highly intelligent and have an incredibly fast ability to comprehend and learn because our focus could not be on that object for long. We have no internal motivation or reward system, have a poor executive function system, and yet creatively find ways to make it through life surrounded by neurotypical people. The world isn't built around our brains and it's needs, so our existence alone requires incredible feat and perseverance. You discussed how distracting our world has become, however it's only a fraction of what our world has always been, including when our brains were being developed and habits were being learned, plus we endured huge social stigma by people who don't understand the condition.

Addiction is far more complicated but it's true some people are more likely to become addict-types from an early age. Addition is often a way of handling stress a feedback loop system where a person drinks, smokes or uses drugs to control and manage negative feelings, a coping mechanism that becomes integral to that persons sense of well-being. Also a form of escapism for many to avoid dealing with those internalised feelings. And even a form of self-sabotage avoidance to avoid doing things, facing fears, rejection or failure.

A talk that helps me appreciate the power of daily prayer, meditation and exploration of how the Sacred Text may change one thought, intention or behavior towards more harmony and unity with Divine Will expressed in Sacred Text.

He just explained why cognitive bias exists as a product of evolution in 2 minutes or less. Outstanding.

This is most excellent. It might've just helped me figure out the root problem of my depression and anxiety. Neuroplasticity. Cognitive behavioral therapy. Forming new thoughts amd habits. Resilience. Patience. Attention. Great content. Thanks for this!

I'm enjoying it for similar reasons. How did you go with this in the last two years?

@@SamuelCEllis I almost forgot watching this. But it was probably a catalyst for me to escape the matrix and be more brave and productive in doing things. One day at a time. No rush. Results with little goals create fulfillment. Less worry. More doing. Hope you are well and good!

Mr Goleman you've been a hero of mine since I first read your book on EQ. Thank you so much for your amazing work.

Superb talk. Particularly enjoyed the reference to focused breathing and attention as a skill deficit that cannot be cured with drugs. Thanks Professor Goleman!

I've been a fan of Daniel Goleman, and have read many of his books and writings. But this lecture is something else. Thanks for uploading.

I've learned that: 1. Attention is a metric to measure the mental muscle :)). 2. Control attention is not control my mind, it is bring it back when It wanders. Thanks to Mr. Daniel Goleman.

Ironically, this is one of the first KZbin videos that I’ve given my attention to. For a hour. The fact that we ALL have the capacity to improve our attention like building a muscle is fascinating to me. With just a few moments out of our days to give towards our breathing. We must apply this knowledge. Too damn important NOT too!

Category of brain cells called oscillators 6:40. Love the "put up" technique at 40:57 in response to when you are feeling put down. 52:25 the touchy and thorny subject of behavior and culture as ingrained in genetics and what can we do about groups of people that get a type of genetic. Interesting response. 1:03:09 what to do around people with negative emotion, since emotion transmits and is contagious?

I like listening to lectures or speeches while doing tedious jobs. I don't know if it is good for my brain to multi-task, but it just keeps me going to do boring work, like homework, household chores and sometimes at work too. It's kinda ironic that I'm listening to this video about attention while at the same time doing my math homework 😅.

This is similar to how fables are usually constructed to reflect truth. Two that come to mind are, 'The Pied Piper', and 'The Emperor Is Naked'. These have stuck with me from childhood, and I have seen the scenes play out from that time and always understood the truths that were imparted back then!

Thank you Mr Goleman for the time and effort that you put into this lecture. The lecture itself is an exercise in keeping focused. I know that what you were talking about was interesting and useful and although my mind would wander on occasions I brought myself back to you and what you were saying. Building brain muscle is a choice we all can make as long as we're alive. Thanks to you,for making me aware of this, it will be my go to.
