How to stay sane (and enjoy life) when everyone around you is giving up.

Here’s one I learned recently. Do not take anything personally. Any negative criticism you receive from someone is usually a mirror of what they think about themselves. No one that has healthy self awareness criticizes others.

If anything, I’d say on the Eat healthy part, it’s important to cook more. I used to be so busy on my hustle that I strictly ate takeout. But even the supposedly healthy stuff is made to taste good while pretending to be healthy. I switched my thinking to the idea that taking the time to do groceries and cook meals that I can certify are good for me, is a better time investment than my hustling. 12 pounds down so far, still going and feeling great about myself. Second thing I’d add: just be yourself. Drop the mask, stop pretending, stop playing a game and deceiving yourself. Know, accept and love yourself. And please don’t let anyone have you believe they should have a say on who you are or should be.

[@mordie31]

Or cook less if we're real about raw meat and raw fruit being ideal for us in terms of our diet.

Yes. If we could get back to eating whole plants and simple spices etc it would help us all have a better attitude because food affects your entire being, including your mind.

[@applesidertea]

I’m a 42 yo. blk woman, professional. Never married; no kids. I consider myself to be very warm and friendly, and I get along very well in social settings. However, the older I get, the more introverted I’ve become. I too love to walk and hike (almost daily. I love reading my books and practicing my instrument. I am most at peace when I am with myself or only one other person that I love at a time. I’m so glad I found your videos because you are helping me to realize that I probably need a husband who is like you: a bit introverted and carefree. I’d never considered this before. I just want a quiet life with one spouse to love. Thank you for your videos 🌸

[@Siskos-pn7nd]

Your post prompted me to reply because we share being introverted, and perhaps musicians. I got lucky and got married at 21 to a 17yo girl. Next month we will be married 56 years. But, I have 2 daughters, both single parents and 2 grandchildren. You are like my daughters any man would be lucky to marry. But, nature sometimes does not allow for everyone having a long term relationship. It is difficult to find someone you get along with, as most marriages end in divorce. My wife and I know one of us will die first. At that point, we will be alone. Being alone is natural although our cultures send a strong message that one must be coupled to be happy. Nothing could be further from the truth. Enjoy your life, be grateful for who you are and what you have. This is the life you were given, and few people enjoy practicing an instrument like a true musician.

I love listening to and having intelligent conversations. Such a rarity these days. Thank you. Great advice. I believe social media, and access to the world's news at our fingertips 24/7 and lack of physical activity OUTDOORS is why anxiety, depression and addictions are at an all time high. Not to mention what it has done to change the morals and perceptions of society in general. We weren't created for this kind of constant bombardment. It is damaging in so many ways... individually and society as a whole. On the other hand, ihe internet has become an invaluable tool and way of life. Balance is key. The question is, is that even possible for most people? And if we don't learn to balance our exposure, what effects will it have on us individually and society in general? I have seen studies in school age children suggesting the more content they consume, the lower their IQ. I don't know how that translates to adults, but if you spend any time at all reading comment sections, it appears to translate to adults as well. We are already seeing devastating ramifications of social media. How much worse can it get? Is there a turning point? Meanwhile, I'm heading out to the garden. Stay blessed.

[@DesertMav]

This is a little contradictory to one of the ideas mentioned. I say, once in a while, in moderation, splurge and enjoy a little bit of that excess or vice that you have, as long as it's not an addiction. Sometimes I get tired of following my healthier routine and I will go out and grab some sweets or snacks to allow me to enjoy a little treat after a hard week. I also get into my hobbies quite a bit since I don't have a large social circle, so I will go to events and either make friends or hang out with friends that are into the same thing. Lastly, the other major thing I would contribute to the list would be to make sure to get enough sleep. Sleep allows your body to fully reset and rejuvenate from a tough or horrible day, both mentally and physically. I always aim for getting 6-8 hours of sleep per night, but that's just me.

[@fearfulcat]

My mind and emotions are going wild from seeing all the changes and evil and greedy intentions

[@TheApeWonder]

My issue is trying to control life. When it doesn’t go as you’ve intended or planned, you can blame yourself - “I had a hunch it would happen but didn’t listen to it”. I over analyze what the hell went wrong or why it went a certain way, even if logic says it was out of my control (ex inflation, recession or such). I’m very analytical and I feel no one gets me, not even my wife. I need to let go and stop caring.
