@@MajorJonny - Not just that. It is combination of what life is throwing at you, how you react to it, being happy and cheerful no matter what, and... of course money. But in his case, he didn't have money at the beginning. And showbusiness is brutal, so who knows what he was going through at the beginning, that he is not talking about, and maybe nevel will. But he always had a specific attitude towards life. And it shows, as yeah... long term stress, worrying, will have an impact on your health and how you look (not talking about something obvious like the impact of long term exposure to UV damage/sun). And at the end? You die if you worry and living a stressfull life, and you die if you don't. So why worry. Just live.

I think Jerry might have won the game of life in a way no one else has. He has spent his entire adult life not taking things too seriously, practicing and perfecting his craft and yet still continues to improve himself. He's amazing.

[@johns7530]

Very interesting when you think about what one's "purpose" in life might be. I've heard it said in spiritual circles that to heal is to make happy. The perfection and brilliance of his show certainly did that for many, many millions of people, for some segment of time. Jerry certainly seems to have found his true "calling", always seems like a decent guy who doesn't get into any trouble, and has ultra clean comedy style that pretty much can't offend anybody apart from stupid people!

[@Royalewithcheesewithlove]

About to save you the TM fees. Sit down comfortably, relax your breath for 1 minute, then start gently mentally repeating your TM mantra (can be found online by age typically 2 syllables ). If you get sidetracked just gently return to the mantra. You'll feel your body relaxing/hands and legs gently going numb. Stay in that state for 20 mins, then let go of the mantra then give yourself 2-3 mins to come back to the present moment and open your eyes. You're welcome

@@changingworld7467 Jerry never speaks about it, but I wonder if he has ever considered the metaphysical benefits to it.

That's not to say he did not work really hard in addition, or that he had everything handed to him... not at all. I'm just saying, that Jungian "synchronicities" seemed to happen more with me when I meditated, and I can see how someone like Seinfeld benefited in unseen ways that go beyond what we typically think of as cause/effect benefits of TM.

I just started exercising 9 months ago. I couldn't walk half a block. Exercising, weight training has been my savior. ( my depression is still here, and unlike you i want to not live, but at least I'm physically healthy). Working out is my meditation. I can squat and deadlift very heavy weights because I focus on one simple thing at a time. I do meditate and have taught others. I also do yoga. I love how you interview. You do it with humor, mindfulness and with Sincereness. At least that is what i have observed. Thank you. I will read up on stoicism. I have read a bit on saint Thomas Aquinas, Buddhism, and others. In prison, my friends said to me," is anyone shooting at you?" This question is like your current philosophy. If no one is shooting at you, don't worry. Just move on to the next thing.

@@lynnturman8157 Sit upright, but not rigidly so; keep feet flat on the floor. (May need pillow behind you to support back and/or to allow feet to rest comfortably flat on the floor.) Close eyes and consciously relax your entire body; breathe in deeply and breathe out long (put lips together and push air out through the closed lips); do this about 20 to 30 times. Your body will start to feel relaxed. Then, start repeating your mantra silently to yourself. If you have no mantra (say from a TM ceremony), try repeating something like: "shiva om," or other spiritually enriched words that resonate with you. Keep silently repeating, in your own mind, that mantra or those spiritually comforting words. In the beginning try doing meditations for at least 20 minutes and then increase to 50 minutes or longer, if you feel so inclined. Best is around 50 - 60 minutes of meditation. Sometimes you are really in the zone and meditations can go on for much longer than one hour.

Meditations changed my outlook on life. It really helped me gain perspective and has been such a benefit. I’m glad I’m not the only one.

[@JohnConsiglio]

Jerry please do the Daily Stoic! 🙏

[@Mr.E1329]

The man could literally pass for like 45 years old. I think Jerry has joined the ranks of the undead. Way to go Jerry!

[@deanwilliams433]

No, he looks great for 70, but I say he looks 58-64

[@pauldocherty403]

Im shocked he is 70 ,how did that happen. He looks great !!! Sounds a little slower but still great

[@davidwollenberg1758]

Well I love Jerry Seinfeld. He is one smart dude brilliant . Jerry Seinfeld in really good shape

[@johnulcer]

Jerry seems much more self aware here than I’ve seen before. Still a bit arrogant but coming more from a place of not caring what others think; in older interviews I thought he often came off as smug and lacking awareness.

[@Hannah82271]

He’s very arrogant

[@DNGMaestro]

@@Hannah82271are you offended?

[@howard5992]

@@DNGMaestro it's just an observation. Like his comedy. Observational. Jerry is in love with his own thoughts. He is proud and excited abut his "insights". I have no problem with it but it's kind of ...comical.

[@willemvanriet7160]

Thank you Jerry, you’ve given us SO much!

[@benjiespinosa4703]

He doesn’t look a day over 50👏

[@shanenolan085]

He got that hair transplant surgery 😂😂😂 even Arnold looks way younger with it too

[@johns7530]

Well having a billion dollars and as he would say, not having worked at a real job in his life helps a person stay young! I say that with mad respect for him, very tough profession and he deserves great success. He has certainly added a lot to the lives of many people he has never met, I've enjoyed countless laughs from that show.

[@cqaqa]

He keeps young by not having to work like normal people. His workload is forgettable as he laughs all the way to the bank.Thanks to Larry David who to be frank is the one with the talent;)

[@jonnyM_007]

So glad sooo many people are starting to get onto Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations- this is the way 🙌

[@eltoro969]

Jerry actually looks better now, getting older.

[@davidmathis-xd6nf]

I have been reading Empectitus . He is another stoic. Much wisdom

[@tiptoe531]

Because Jerry has carved out an exceptional career based on observation as a consequence he’s become incredibly wise.

[@cqaqa]

Jerry is getting away with murder. Pretending to be all wise and successful because of talent and choices he made in life when he in fact is both petulant and entitled. To be honest he just hit the jackpot, was lucky with Larry David by his side who’s the one with the rare talent and since then it has been easy sailing for mr. Seinfeld.

[@AD-im5to]

Great interview! This is so inspiring and knowledgeable

[@sebastianmoraga4785]

Only Seinfeld could admit to an espresso addiction and then say "but I get all my energy from meditation."

[@mikeavguy]

Best Seinfeld interview I've ever seen. Bensinger let Seinfeld speak. He didn't compete. Rare.

[@EducationOptions]

4:00 Marcus Aurelius

[@TheSendaBigSmileChallenge]

Love Seinfeld! Such a funny and interesting guy! 😀👍

[@andrewveto]

Jerry should go on the JRE

[@jack-uv6mt]

Can't rly see that going well for some reason

[@mattgrey1373]

Cant either

[@yoe91]

mmm... different vibes.

[@funtimes8296]

I actually think he never would. Would be cool if he did though

So Joe can't talk 95 percent of the time and tell the same tired stories to him he always tells. Nah.

[@neilm2794]

His outlook has changed a lot. I can remember the episode of Seinfeld where Kenny Banya asks him “Do you workout?”, and Jerry says “No, I don’t”. “Well you should”. “Why?”

[@DominicMcDermott]

The smugness in people who do meditate vs people who don’t is hilarious! Love you @Jerry

[@underated17]

The bad reviews really hurt. They are often unfounded and said by someone who couldn't do it better.

[@UnaBellissima]

My ADHD approves of this interview 😂. But yeah… meditations! 🙏🏼

[@PrettyInPink8]

I had no idea Jerry Seinfeld did meditation in such an extraordinarily committed way, his success now makes a lot of sense. Where can we see the full interview?

[@gregroland914]

Instead of meditating, why not unload the dishwasher?

[@barbarashea1975]

Dishwashing can be a meditation. Just pay attention to the dishwashing and nothing else, not easy but it’s a practice.

[@bigadz0r]

as a man trying to be a stoic i just have to keep telling myself whatever gets in the way is the way, no point complaining, just get on with it

[@deanwilliams433]

I agree. I like to think of it as being at peace with negative emotions or thoughts. Once you don't give them fuel they become less and less of an occurrence.

[@elusivelectron]

Seinfeld is slowly turning into Pacino.

[@kimscioloro]

The most insightful Seinfeld interview, or any interview, ever. I tried TM but just could not get into it, I'll have to give it a second look.

[@changingworld7467]

Did you learn from a certified teacher? If so, you can go back and get your TM practice checked. If not, go to a real TM teacher....all the difference in the world. I'm a vet and it is the best thing that ever happened to me.

[@jonathanhook2229]

Also be a Billionaire.

[@garryjohalcomedy]

Thanks for the rec mark Normand!

[@mr.critic]

the man looks 48

[@colasrtney]

Get an eye exam.

[@dougiestudebaker4318]

Starting meditation tomorrow, thanks Jer.

Key #4: date a high schooler when you are 39 years old

[@lmb4876]

Yep, i kinda remember that myself

[@hairyfrank]

Ageist!

[@clementdedadelsen4065]

So much wisdom.. I'm impressed

[@BradBolin]

He forgot to add personal chef, no fixed schedule, and hair dye.

[@rebelofbabylon3091]

He has gray hair, his schedule would be needed since he is a busy person (a trade off of being successful) and no personal chef can change genetics

[@BradBolin]

@@rebelofbabylon3091 you're drinking the Kool aid hard if you think that color is gray, my friend.
