Maybe your personality suck too, simply base on your look😅 one of your unfair advantage

[@manictiger]

Not to say people should complain all the time about it, but even back in the late 2000s, owning a home required "being extraordinary". Not "owning Leno's car garage" and not "owning a cathedral". Owning a single family home. There is a problem with this, and that's coming from someone who rents out a few of them. Blackstone, Blackrock and the rest of the WEF have a monopoly on "middle class living". You are chasing lambos and ferraris, when you should be chasing night vision and high end rifles. Something bad is possibly in store for us. The WEF absolutely loathes the U.S., because we're the only country that can put up an effective fight. If you're going to rat race, do it to preserve standard of living. Vacuum sealers, O2 absorbers, mylar, water bricks, ammo cans, armor, shelving and more shelving. You can't eat a lambo.

[@manictiger]

Oh and to destroy anyone that wants to "hurr tinfoil hat", look up "ESG" and look up "ESG Larry Fink". They who control the corporations, control the governments, control the world. Don't chase dollars. Chase items. They can't print infinite gold, ammo (I wish they'd try, because it'd make it cheaper) or food. They can't print land. They can't print your mind.

Most billionaires DID NOT struggle to start a business. And that's not an opinion, we have actual DATE on social mobility. social mobility is very low. Most people are "old money". And even those who did got RICHER weren't POOR when they started. That's BS according to data, sorry. Machiavelli himself said in The Prince that ALL depends on "fortuna" and "virtù". and go on with MANY examples where stupid people got power because of sheer luck and talented people failed against unthinkable odds. Videos like that only focus on "virtu. That's half or even less of the picture.

[@njux1871]

​@@JohnnyLynnLee Thanks for saying that. It keeps getting put under the rug. Rich people get richer, usually. Not only there, either, even in the arts it's usually people from already wealthy families becoming successful. It is absolutely possible to get ahead if you're poor. It's just bazillion times harder, includes a LOT of luck, and your success isn't as sure as people like you to believe. But to be fair, if you're not committed to trying, you will never succeed. That's just not an excuse to not want change in an unjust society in which being successful is vastly determined by how rich your family is. But that too shouldn't stop you from trying.

"If you wouldn't ask advice of someone, don't take criticism from them" is such an incredible quote

[@VesperAegis]

Valid criticism can come from a variety of sources, perhaps especially those we otherwise wouldn't take advice from. These types of universalisms just aren't helpful, because everyone is different and a unique perspective and life experience can occasionally, even if we assumed the person was failing, offer a vantage point that you haven't thought of before. In fact, sometimes it's exactly that failing - and even that jealousy - that can offer you a unique insight into something that you have overlooked in your own success and avoid their pitfall.

[@DXM339]

But if you have a vision and goal others criticize because they don’t understand or want you to stay in a position that benefits THEM, not you:STAY TRUE TO YOUR INSTINCTS. And surround yourself with others who help you achieve your goals and do everything the best. Criticism is good when it’s constructive. Just keep your own values and goals strong.Don’t be held back by others worries.

[@alex.g7317]

Some key takeaways: - Living an ordinary life will not lead to an extraordinary life. - People who criticize you for trying to be exceptional are usually those who have already accepted mediocrity. - It's important to use your unfair advantages to your benefit to get ahead of 99% of people. - Hard work alone won't make you successful, but a combination of your unfair advantages, hard work, grit, patience, and consistency will. - To create an extraordinary life, take full responsibility for your actions and decisions, stop blaming external factors, and focus on the things you can control.

[@kazimsyed7367]

- you may have a different idea of perfect than others. Depending on factors for e.g different values. No one is bad or good. It's just different. -having a feedback and measure ur progress and self monitoring yourself and make changes. - take suggestions or postive criticism from people you respect.

[@adriae.s.3814]

The fact that only 1% can be the 1% and not everyone else should be taken into account either. Because there is a reason why only 1% is that many people and not the other way around. NOT EVERYONE CAN ACHIEVE GREATNESS and EXCEL IN LIFE and one individual without being a self limitation, has to be aware and acknowledgeable of what he can or can not do, and where can he push things up to. Because frustration and bitterness can end up ruining your life, pushing and fighting for the 1% for the whole life... it's just a thought.

[@Unseeable_web]

Here is a thing which I have heard which have truly impacted my life and could impact yours too! Life is like a game of cards, everyone gets their own deck of cards. You can peek at most decks and awe in jealousy: "wow I wish I had that persons deck" or "that person is lucky to have that deck", but in reality what you should be doing is upgrading your own deck of cards. Every deck is upgradable and you should be upgrading your deck to its utmost potential

[@ganndalf202]

This is so true. Nobody around me understands why I have such a huge desire to improve and why I'm going for harder jobs and things. Nobody gets it around me except my boyfriend who showed me that constant improvement is very rewarding and it actually makes me feel like I'm alive. It's not for everyone yes but some of us desire it and it's annoying how people make you seem bad or toxic for it. It can be very lonely too because you get disconnected for a lot of people. Glad to see I'm not the only one with desires like this. Thanks Ruri.

[@rosslmccallum]

The intro about how a very successful person won’t make fun of you for trying to get started in something difficult and ambitious is a really good insight.

[@kiminias]

You've mentioned that now achieving your goals and hard work are called unhealthy which, i think, is true. Now our life is so fast, we can't even listen to ourselves. Anyone who is reading this comment right now, you don't need to be "ahead of 99% of people", do whatever that will make you comfortable in life and satisfied with yourself.

[@Cyborg_1612]

I agree with your sentiment but it can be a double edged sword. If someone is content with their life but are unaware of it’s negative consequences, that in turn becomes more toxic. People should always yearn to improve themselves in a way that fits their lifestyle. However I do agree that “getting ahead of 99% of people” shouldn’t be the goal for everyone.

The fact is that AI is the future of all work, not man. Capitalism is a horrible system for most people, it ruin third world countries, it destroy our environment and eventually as I mentioned, we are going to be replaced with machines and AI systems, you have no control over this, you are simply a passenger waiting for the crash. What are the teenagers supposed to do when their jobs vanish before they even graduate? All of a sudden their skills and hard effort has no meaning anymore, they have to retrain themselves for some other job.

All the points you said in this video I totally agree with. ONLY listen to the people who you want to be like. My parents always say "You'll never become a real artist with the stuff that I draw", yet the things that I draw and how I practice is an unfair advantage that I easily took to my advantage because of my ADHD. ADHD is an unfair advantage that's easy to benefit from because you have a different mindset then everyone else, and that everyone else are the people who mostly fail. So if anyone is reading this, I hope you have a very successful life as I have the same hope for mine. Thank you so much Ruri for making this video and teaching me how to work harder than the other 99% of people. This was honestly very helpful!

@@lukehodder4728 That actually depends a lot. If you have adhd and you get forced / manipulated into a job that doesn‘t fit / interest (e.g. because that job is safe, pays well, is respected by society, …) you it can f*** your health up pretty badly (can lead to burnout very quickly). Also, not everyone who has it get’s diagnosed. Really, it’s either a big advantage or disadvantage. Nothing in between. If your interested you will do great. If you find it boring you will be compensating so much for your lack of interest that it exhausts very quickly. It’s either hyperfocus (if your on the right path) or lack of interest (on the wrong path) that leads to an exhausting amount of masking yourselfsand compensating your symptoms until you burn out. I didn’t know about ad(h)d for most of my life and chose a safe job, so I’m writing from experience. Just recently I realized the advantages that I couldn‘t benefit from until now.

@@avengedprophet1559 Now that you say that, I definitely makes a lot more sense why it is so hard for me to do calculus right now. I get so bored and end up watching youtube while I do my calculus homework and it takes me 5 hours to do something that should take 1 hour(at the most 2). So rn im not utilizing the hyperfocus I could be if it was something I enjoyed. So I try to change my mindset about the work but at the end of the day its math and I hate it so its hard to do. So ig that means I should definetly try and find something I enjoy doing over something that pays well and I hate doing.

[@avengedprophet1559]

@@lukehodder4728 well that‘s at least my experience. Everyone is different, including people with ad(h)d. If calculus really doesn‘t work for you (despite trying to focus and giving it your all) then it might not be for you. But it also depends how important calculus is in your job, training, studies, … If it‘s just a small part and the rest works good then I don‘t thing it‘s a good reason for quitting. In my case for example, I was bored by almost every task I had to do. That definitely wasn‘t for me. If the boring stuff would have been like only 25% or something like that I wouldn‘t have burnt out so quickly.

[@nyurons]

To anyone reading this, you are already in the top 1%. Not because you watched the video, but because you are. You are not just 99% but 100% different from others, and no one can beat that. Now, let’s get up, pick up that pencil, drink tea, sleep, run, talk… whatever you do, you are just one step more closer to your goal. You will be 101%! The intro did not fully resonate with me. Sure, no one can stop anyone from striving to be in the top 1%. I also find Ruri’s advices and info helpful. However, I would contemplate about having the “be in the top 1%” mindset - it could be toxic depending on how you process it. For example, there always will be a top 1% within that 1%; you can think of this statement negatively or positively, but either way you will always be striving for more. Here lies the issue; If you are not happy/fulfilled now, you will probably never be happy/fulfilled/successful (or whatever you desire in life). It’s ok to strive for the top 1% or even the best, but let’s make sure you have the right attitude toward this mindset. ❤

[@AaronMetallion]

This was a really insightful watch! Hope I can write out another PoV, while not disagreeing with your PoV: I'm not a competitive person at all. I'm an ambitious introvert and don't concern myself with social circles / peers / competing. And so I cannot relate at all to the sentiment - "How to get ahead of 99% of people". All my life I've strived only to get ahead of myself, and who I was yesterday, and the day before that. I'm a Game Developer / Game Artist, and my portfolio / art / skills had to be reborn over and over before I succeeded after my entire 20-30s. I only held myself accountable and in competition with myself, and the success fell into place naturally. I don't look at someone else and think "I'm ahead of you", "I'm the top 1%", "I'll sleep better because you're beneath me". I mentor people who would be considered adversaries, and learn from them. Since I work in my own business / indie studio, seeing everyone succeed with me, means I succeed too. There's no incentive to 1up them. What I'm pursuing is such a niche, so people around me aren't competition. I don't think any less of someone who's a trucker, or laborer, or a farmer either. Every person plays a part that keeps the structure and fabric of civilization running around me like clockwork, so I can continue to make art. I'd also like to say, I'd like to be in the higher ~20-30% in terms of money, never 1-5%, because I can maintain a balance of leverage, and living life a little. In the last 20 years of struggling, there's nothing I really look back on fondly. I didn't date at all, didn't maintain friendships, my family is away from me, I just worked and worked and the world revolved around me, my health, my work, my money. What I see mediocre about someone basic, they'd also find mediocre things about me. Time is finite. I suceeded in career & money, and failed at everything else. They succeed at everything else, and failed at career & money. In my 30s I want to change that, prioritize the simpler things in life, and enjoy the returns of my hard work in balance while not being complacent. "A calm and modest life brings more happiness than the pursuit of success combined with constant restlessness." - Albert Einstein.

Ruri, you speak facts!! Its true that things may get very difficult but I remember the true happiness I felt when I received my test scores for chemistry after studying hard and almost giving up. You are truly inspiring and I hope you have an even more successful future and get what you want! ☺💜

[@BlackCat91009]

I watched this video like a millions of times, but It never fails to make me feel inspired. Even if i doubt myself, it gives me strength to keep going. This video makes me feel deeply understood. All the people in my life just tell me to relax and not stress. They just simply don't get what I am doing no matter how much I try to explain. Now own I am going to ignore them right away. Thank you, Ruri, for always inspiring us and providing us with high-quality content. 🌼🌷✨️

[@TotalWealth]

Your story is amazing!! Full of grit and commitment. And I totally agree with your assessment of the double-edge sword of unfair advantages.

[@fabianorellana9258]

Thank you Ruri, those words are the exact thing that i needed to hear, you are so much younger than me and you remember me my younger self, the clarity of of my desires and goals and the conviction and devotion that someday i feelt for all of that things, thank you so much for this waking up call.

[@DavidStrife7]

You're a wonderful person with a rich soul. It must have been difficult for you after listening to your story, but the results clearly show it was worth it. I love how you just spoke directly without pandering to anyone. This is what I and a lot of people need to hear. I'll still make excuses for myself and fall over multiple times, but people like you and Dr. Huberman as well as others, keep me sane. Thank you.

[@mariosmichael5116]

Thanks Ruri for your good will 💖💖💖

[@ryanmalachy777]

You are a blessing to the world and to YT. Your videos inspire me so much.

[@troybonner91]

Whoever told you your channel is "cringey" was jealous that you're actually creating something. I know it's difficult to tell when compliments are genuine because people will blow smoke up to make you like them, but trust me, your channel is far from cringey. It's these channels that continue to give me inspiration in my path towards language learning and completing nursing school.

[@ronaldomobile5415]

you're absolutely right Ruri, many people around us don't like to see us achieve something. im an Indonesian but i always try to improve my english in my videos. and the sad story is people around me make fun of it and some of them fell jealous of me 😂

[@jonlima9897]

Your english is Fine Bro!

[@ronaldomobile5415]

Thanks 😇❤

[@karinarahma5659]

I've come across dozens of motivation-like videos but this one sure hits different. Thank you so much for your hard work and that you keep inspiring us Ruri!!

[@whoguy4231]

I live on $70 a week, wear old clothes and cook all my meals ... I'm so content, happy and enjoying life. You don't need lots of money to be happy.

[@sophialyudova7647]

Моя дорогая, спасибо за видео! Иногда когда смотришь на успешных людей кажется, что это всё им досталось просто так, а на самом деле за всем этим успехом стоят сотни и тысячи тяжелых часов упорной работы

[@mumiko106]

обожаю Рури,уже год смотрю ее видео, многие мне очень помогли

[@eljuniorcen2675]

You’re videos feel super relatable about things I’ve always had in my mind and even learned so much from you,I needed this more than ever, thank you Ruri!

[@Laurius57]

It's not about "working hard" or listening barely 20yo youtuber who don't know shit about life. It's about being in right place, at right time, with right skills.

[@VanPray]

Excellent Content. I watch all of KZbin at 1.75 . You are one of the few presenters that I consider having to slow it down. Thank you!! At that speed I have to pay attention. You have my attention.

[@variiex]

Almost spat out my morning coffee thinking you were about to say "cultivating mass" at 1:58, for which I would also agree with!

[@ChosenWan]

Every time I try to treat your videos as typical motivational content, you always manage to move me with your sincerity and genuinely valuable insights. I once experienced a similar downfall in my family's financial situation, as you did. My stepfather gambled away every penny of our family's wealth, leaving my mother and me with millions in debt. However, like you, I didn't give up on myself. Thus, I deeply resonate with the past experiences you've shared. Regardless, I will officially start my KZbin channel this week, and I hope that one day we can meet at the summit of a million subscribers.

[@epistemophilicmetalhead9454]

identifying the nature of your jealousy is a great way to understand what you want Focus on all and only things you can control No backup plans. They'll make you complacent Discover your unfair advantage: everybody has it. It's unique to them. It's a double-edged sword (Money, Intelligence and insight, Location and luck, Education and expertise, Status) Choose the direction you wanna take and see how you can use your unfair advantage/s to achieve your goals Be consistent Learn to ignore internal and external sources of excuses and criticisms. Only listen to the feedback of those you trust and whose judgement you respect Give yourself constant feedback. Analyse and improve

[@IBSaurabh]

Thank You so much Ruri! You don't know how much I needed this! This video just popped up out of nowhere, that too when I needed it the most! Thank you God! And God Bless you!!

[@ao_moatassemarab]

This is the best perspective of life and making progress regardless of how many obstacles we might face and taking advantage of the time, whatever it takes we would achieve it differently, Thank you Ruri, for this video, this video you made has been springing from the bottom of your heart explaining the obstacles that you encountered and how you got through them, and what is the motive of yours.

[@yumosh1491]

You are an incredible inspiration, Ruri! You really made me think about my unfair advantages and how to use them to get ahead in life. Absolutely loved your video.

[@butterfly9268]

Just came back from doctor.. I figured it out I have “ADHD”.. When everything seems so dark, this video is a HOPE for me.. I’ll figure it out how to deal with it watching your videos.. Thank you for the amazing video!! I wish to come back here again “better” and see you and thank YOU ♡

[@renejmartins]

Ruri, thank you so much for this video!!!!!!!

[@balqeesuthman344]

I started a fitness goal at the beginning of this year and i was about quitting when i bumped into your channel. At first, i didn't want to watch the video cause I've seen alot other youtubers videos before. But after watching it i felt like my spirit has been awoken and i felt a new energy surge through me. I love the part where you said "it never gets easier, you just get stonger". That part really motivated me to continue on my goal. Thanks for the time to used on this video.

[@kdatalbi]

Thank you so much ever since I found your channel and consistently watched you content I have been able to massively change my life for the better.❤

[@nyrak2157]

Thank you for this, I am at a similar boat to your past, my family is currently having a crisis and it also made me wake up everyday to improve as I promised myself I will never let my parents down and I will never be a burden, I have to step up and be someone they can rely on when things go haywire. You're a great inspiration.

[@Englishpracticeasy]

I love ruri and admire your skill , be good person and go ahead ❤

[@livreanimacoes5704]

It's hard to maintain discipline, after failing several times I always wonder if it's possible, but videos like yours are important to keep on track, thank you

[@NikolaCebic]

This video has been such a joy listening to! It was a little over two years ago, when I started my self improvement journey and your video helped me estimate where I‘m currently standing and what I want to improve on. Thank you very much!

[@AIPixelFusion]

Your story is inspirational and heart warming. I'm happy for your success.

[@Aidan_05_]

This video is brilliant. From the script to your delivery, it all hit me deeply. So grateful for this video. Definitely one I will be rewatching many times ❤

[@creativelym8284]

Dear Ruri, the writing of this video is gold. Thank you for taking your time to clarify these thoughts and deliver them in such a clear way🌸🌺With appreciation, M

[@phothewin6019]

If you want to get ahead of 99% of people, you just need to go in front of them.

[@hermoneywhichshedroppedont2596]

Girl ur such a life changer. U have no idea how much u have helped me with this. Thank you so much for this video and just for existing!!

[@kitonlama]

Thank you very much for the video from Odesa, Ukraine. You have an extremely high-quality picture and sound, I can only imagine how much time you spent to get such an outstanding result, I am shocked by how beautifully, clearly and transparently you express your wise thoughts. You motivate me to continue.

[@meismichaelhi]

Hey man, thanks for this, I'm inspired on how far you have come. It has motivated me to reflect on why I want to become more successful as well- my family. Often find it hard to push myself but I have to realise how important and urgent my own personal mission is. Now, how to do this without putting too much pressure on myself is something I need to focus on. It feels like pushing through a wall at times, and I often spend my energy on things that aren't as productive. One of my aims are to try and complete things that are valuable and or extremely useful.

[@VioletLanguages]

Hey Ruri, I've been watching your channel for over a year now and I haven't missed a video. Regardless of the topic, you're always just emanating motivation, the way you talk about things is so exciting. I really enjoy polyglot content on youtube and I wanna do the same thing in the future. I'm fluent in 5 languages now and after I learn 2 more, I'll start making youtube videos; that's what will make me stand out from other people.

[@Meli-po8qn]

I love This story so inspirational and the reason you did it for your family resonates so very much for me because I come from a poor family, and I feel like it's up to me to break all the generational curses even though college wasn't for me

[@naqiudinshamsudin5458]

Thanks for this reminder.appreciatte it

[@sarahvoh55]

I needed this video and it came at the right time. I have been struggling to acheive my goals and I lost motivation. I discovered your channel and I have been inspired and motivated by your videos. I started reading books again and I have been exercising consistently. I'm trying to fix my sleep schedule and go back to doing my hobbies that I used to enjoy. Thank you for giving us informative and helpful videos. Thank you for helping us to become the best version of ourselves. You are one of my favorite KZbinrs! I wish you the best on your KZbin journey. Keep making great content!🤗💗

[@nguyenalena7764]

This video is so inspiring. Recently I've been demotivated and stressed because I could see so many friends doing better than me at school. I was really worried. You know, school life in Asia is a heavy competition, if your friends are the better then you have no choice but to be the worse. However, after watching this I finally knew what to do. Thanks a lot:D

[@voluptua]

I cant believe how motivating your videos are. Most excellent

[@ayushmourya2831]

We really need this type of guide in life to get ahead from many problems 😙 Thanks ohama 🤞✨

[@virtuoso5736]

Thank you for the message! Good luck on your grind, I'm happy to see someone as ambitious and hard working as you because there are not many people like us who have the desire to grow. I hope you create more content like this!

[@asif_imtiaz]

Amazing! Thank you for this!

[@ajayshekar1023]

After all the motivation videos I have been through I have concluded that everything boils down to Consistency. Consistency is that which will put you ahead from the 99%.
