19:00 how do you become comfortable with yourself. I want to spread love too

Start by identifying who you are in specific. You can do this by looking towards the things you like to do and don't like to do, then asking the question of "why". From there it is a matter of acceptance or rejection. If you don't like your answer to the question of why, then take that identified aspect of your persona and resolve to work on it. If you do like your answer to that question, then take that aspect of your persona and resolve to lean into it. The important thing is not to reject the negative aspects of yourself, but rather to understand where they come from, and to recontextualize them into things that are to your benefit. For instance. If you are someone who gets angry easily, understand that as an emotional passion that is unique to you. You must learn to control it, but also be able to lean into it, such that when you take on a task you have the fullness of your passion behind you. You cannot change the core elements of who you are, but you can change how you view and use them. Becoming cognizant of what they are and updating your approach to handling them with that cognizance in mind.

What is radical individualism doing to people?

[@fitness2x893]

Like you said, you dont want go radical either way.

On the negative end it is resulting in a lot of self isolation and an over-emphasis on the pursuit of power and control. On the positive end it has resulted in the re-emergence of self reliance, resilience, and adaptive mindsets in a certain subset of the populace.
