#7 would have changed you profoundly. Parenthood is what causes us to move beyond the self. Parenthood causes suffering and wisdom that changes perception. Most people who don't procreate remain self absorbed.

LOL. I love all the hate comments I'm getting. I'm reading them and I'm not offended. 1). This video was made 2 years ago and I've developed a lot since then. 2). My intention was to share my experience so people can relate/connect. 3). I'm constantly growing to be a better communicator and know I'm not perfect. I own that. Bonus: Your hate (and non-hate) comments helped make this video go viral, so thanks. :P Love you all. :) p.s. Thanks everyone who left me positive comments! :)

Infinite Mastery (Richard Kuo) Legitimate criticism is not "hate". You are fully Western, nothing Oriental, if you lived in Asia people would rightfully point out you are centred around yourself. Ego, in Freudian terms. No, you shouldn't make a video on the precious experience of people about to die and instead talk about yourself. You could fix it, remove the audio and make something truly useful (feel good about yourself because of the REAL help to others). But nah, it seems you are too concerned in getting immediate, superficial reward for the also superficial image of who you are. Who you are is that but mostly a part of something bigger.

I am only 48 years but I am certain that the best decision I have ever mage in my life is to stay away from my narcissistic siblingw who discriminate and are extremely selfish and arrogant, and also stay away from certain aunts who have loads of envy and hatred. In that way I can happily pursue my career (maths), my hobby yoga, and my new hobby/singng/guitar. I will never regret this.

I've made the decision to keep my toxic mother away from me, my family and our friends. I have accepted that she is incapable of change and will remain a bitter, narcissistic, rude, snobbish bigot and, as she has NEVER been to a funeral or visited a dying friend (deliberately avoided them by going on luxury holidays in some cases) then she can die alone. I'd love her to discover empathy and compassion and courage but there's nothing else I can do for her.

***** Of course. There is no particular way things should be so we should be flexible... so long as our well-being is better in the option we take. That is why I think people should encourage both the married and single people about their lives, not seeing one as more important or more"romantic". The wise rejoice insomeone' divorce in the sameway as tey rejoice in someone's marriage, because both decisions are for the well-being of the person. I for one have nothing in common with my narcissistic siblings anymore, so why should I force myself to lie that "I love you" to them just because Mr President or the senator sames "family". I am not a politician so I should be free to be myself.

some look at it as a negative that he reffered to himself but not all of us think that way and some will focus or notice it because of the comment. after mentioning a regret, every good speaker will expound a little to help the hearer memorize and understand the point. (a little story about others or self is necessary to accomplish that) if the problem is that the video is too long then that should be the focus but what was done is fine. things are not perfect and can always be adjusted but everyone will never be happy, because we're in a rush, didn't eat and exercise right or get enough sleep etc and are slightly irritated sometimes at trivial stuff (because we are not living a fulfilled life) and are probably living out most of these regrets

I got a full time job 2 months before my grandfather died, he was in and out of the hospital and I didn't visit as much as I should have. After my shifts, it was late and I was tired. And then the day of the funeral, my piece of shit boss called me and said that I had more than enough time off (they covered 3 shifts) and I needed to come back to work. I quit on the spot. Definitely don't regret quitting, I just really regret that I spent so much time at this crappy job and not enough time with my grandpa :/ Family's #1 people. Unless your family is a bunch of assholes.

You forgot to mention that one should never take their heath for granted. Instead of thinking,"Oh, I don't want to go to work today" try, "I happy that I am healthy enough to get out of bed on my own volition and that I am strong enough to go to work". Some days, I really have to focus on this as I have chronic health issues. I also try to focus on the fact that I am happy that I am fortunate enough to have a good job and that I can (mostly) pay my bills. My house isn't in foreclosure, my electric is still on and I have food in the fridge. I am still working on the happiness choice thing but I thinks it is mostly the perspective that one assigns to things.

I have no regrets in my life because i've never done anything wrong...that's not to say i've never made mistakes or never given wrong answers to questions...been guilty or never hurt someone intentionally out of anger or frustration or revenge......or told lies, been selfish, swore/cursed or been in a fight, stole, vandalized or bullied. I have been a part of a lot of negative/bad moments in my past BUT...and here is the most important part......BUT...I never did them more than I HAD to before I learned my lesson (key word 'Had'). Making mistakes is the only way we learn and grow...once we learn from our mistakes or from other people's mistakes...our actions only become wrong once we enact them AFTER we have already learned they were wrong from previous experience (personally or second-hand). When I was growing up and learning the ways of the world...whenever I HAD to do something wrong or bad to learn my lesson...I always made sure to control the level of my wrong-doings and never let it go "too far", i've never been wrong just for the sake of being wrong....i've never been evil just for the thrill of being evil...i've never hurt someone just to make myself feel better. Everything i've ever done was the result of my personal surroundings and from the actions of everyone else around me...we cannot control what other people do...and we cannot control where we are on location at any given moment (nano-second)...the only thing we CAN control is our own actions and re-actions...we are forced to react to other people around us...in ways that we would prefer not to...but yet must do...when confronted with communication from another person beside us...the thing to remember is......there are many different ways of doing things...you have to be smart and analyse every moment carefully and react in just the right way...the trick is to WANT to be right and be accurate and on the side of good/happiness/Utopia...strive for perfection and peace...fix the errors of our broken world and find all the faults that need repair. lol i'm rambling on out of boredom...forgive me.

The only thing that someone could consider a regret is something that they were able to change at that time. Many people don't even know what regret is. When you make decisions based on only what you know at that time, there's no reason for regret because there was no way you had the current knowledge as we do now for decisions we made decades ago. Unfortunately, from example there are millions of single mothers out there who have no choice but to overwork and not spend adequate time with their children. There's no choice and they do what they have to do to prevent their children from becoming homeless. I commend all dedicated. mothers out there. your time and efforts will pay off.

My thoughts on the children thing is that the wrong reason to have a child. A person should have a child for the child's life not for theirs. Obviously you need to want to have a child but it shouldn't be for a selfish reason. I've noticed too many people say things like when I have a child as if they'll have one no matter what their circumstance in life will be. Too many kids without parents or just living horrible loves already.

:) All it's RELATIVE, like Einstein theory. Many children had, have and certainly will have a successful happy life just because they didn't grew up without parents and all of the preconceptions with which they are brainwashing the children. When you are discovering the life by yourself, without someone telling to you what's wrong or right, without discouraging your innate aspirations and ideals, you are absolutely accomplishing yourself.

Loved this video! My thoughts on having children... Being a female, I think often times we are taught that what we are supposed to do at some point in our lives is raise children. Now personally, I hope to have children someday. But unlike a lot of people who probably just have children because they are taught its what they are supposed to do once they get to a certain stage in their life, I feel like its not something that everyone is equipped to handle. While I think that it is totally acceptable to lack the desire to have children and that people shouldn't be judged for it, I also feel like having the opportunity to raise a child can ultimately make the world a much better place. Raising a child can not only add purpose and meaning to your life as a parent, but it is also an opportunity to share your life experience and wisdom as well as leave a lasting impact on the world. Yes your child is their own individual with their own set of strengths and weaknesses, but having the ability to guide them and help them be the best person they can be creates such an overwhelming potential for them to do amazing things in their life and most importantly, not make the same mistakes as you did. I think one of the greatest ways you can live your life is to work hard to be the best you can be, and then work hard to share what you've learned with other people. Not only by having children do you get to experience the fulfillment of selflessness by loving and caring for another child, but you get to hope that your child can learn from your mistakes and that the lessons you learned in your life can be passed down through generations in your family, which can ultimately, positively affect mankind. Of course, there are so many ways to share your experiences and leave a lasting impact on the world without having children, and of course not everyone desires to take on the responsibility of bringing another life into the world, which I think is totally acceptable. I think its all about your own path and preferences that you should use to determine whether or not having children is right for you. I think there is no right or wrong answer when it comes to deciding whether or not to have children. Either way, you can still live a meaningful and purposeful life.

Like all of this, except the comments on number 9: If you live a truthful life you won't be cheating on your partner, you will already have been honest enough to end the relationship before jumping into the sack with someone else. Fessing up to it afterwards is a pretty selfish thing to do; you may relieve yourself of the burden of guilt (and call it being truthful) but all you're really doing is needlessly hurting the other person who you have already disrespected by cheating on them. Thanks for posting this btw :) I hope you don't let some of the ugly comments people post put you off posting! - there are some decent people who appreciate folks like you taking the time to create free entertainment for us x

Monica Sanson Johns I agree 100 percent. More time should have been reading the dying person comments. Too much about about himself which he should have done that introspection on his personal time; not on this vid. I also disagree with having children because there is no guarantee they will or want to take care of you when you age. As one elderly person said to me "It's heartbreaking when your child(ren) doesn't want to take care of you in your old age."

I think the desire to have children is instilled by society. The expectation of finding greater happiness in having kids is hard to reach for a lot of people and that leads me to believe that it isn't innate. To me, being happy because you have kids is probably a placebo.

"Happiness is a choice" does not mean what you made it out to mean. It means that you can just give yourself a permission to be happy, and not that you make not fun stuff to be fun just by deciding that now they are fun for you. So don't delude yourself to think bad things are actually fun, but just give yourself a permission to be happy, even when you have not "deserved it", in a sense.

Happiness can be a choice, but it isn't something that is "decided upon" like a light switch. (I.e. I want to be happy, so lets flip this switch on). Instead, it can be a difficult choice, similar to choosing what career to follow or what to invest your time in. You have to weigh the pros and cons and consider exactly what it's going to take to keep yourself mostly happy in the long run. You have to make sacrifices and change your habits in order to stay happy... yes you do need to make sacrifices to be happy, for instance your pride and ego, or time and money. You also have to prepare yourself to be able to deal with situations that will naturally make you happy. Situation does affect happiness, but the good news is that you can learn to handle different situations and develop plans of action to respond to each situation. For instance, how to respond if people cut you off in traffic, mad dog you in the streets, completely ignore you at social events, make fun of you or demonize you. The responses could be completely internal, where your best to control your neural and physiological activities - or they might require you to interact externally, like standing up for yourself, forcing yourself to talk to someone, or looking away and try to signal public courtesy. But regardless of the situation or response, to be effective you must be aware and present in the moment, and have the grit to do what needs to be done, and have made the appropriate preparations to help ensure success of execution. Every disaster requires a contingency plan, and every plan requires a back up plan, sometimes more than one.

Don't regret not having kids. It's a choice, be happy with your decision cause their are so many people unhappy with kids for whatever reasons. It's sad and it shouldn't be, but it is what it is for some folks. Love the save more money for retirement. You wanna make sure you have enough, to travel, help your grandchildren with and live life to the fullest. I also think saying I love you more is important. We forget that family and friends are going through struggles we can not see and their are no guarantees for tomorrow. So speak up! Quit drinking earlier in life and taking better care of your health. So important to have a better quality of life in your later years. You wanna enjoy as much as you can for as long as you can.

I don't plan on having any children of my own. I think there are plenty of opportunities to be an influence in a child's life whether it be as an aunt or nanny. People are popping kids out left and right so I'm sure someone close to me will ask for my help in some small way with their child's upbringing.

Number 10 is the only one I really take issue with. This "Happiness is a choice" idea was heavily promoted by the conservative Templeton Foundation. It suits the establishment when ordinary people believe that it is not their circumstances that are at fault, but their own emotions. Emotions have a purpose. If you're unhappy, that's telling you something is wrong. Why else would we have emotions?

Work is for Machines, emotions do have a purpose, they are an organizing force for your body to do something or turn away from something. As far as I know, they usually have to be informed by thoughts, both conscious and unconcious. Those thoughts can be onesided, misinformed, or inflated in meaning, though. So if you think that something is unbearable, your emotions will be very negative. So yeah they tell you something is wrong. But it could be your thinking, not the thing you are thinking about. Maybe it is not so unbearable if viewed from a different angle or with more information or more time to see long term effects. This might exclude dental procedures, though. :)

Work is for Machines, oh and for this argument that "Happiness is a choice" suits the establishment - I don´t think so. It is much better to keep ordinary people at a mild level of discomfort and anxiety so they are easier to manipulate. Mind capacity drops significantly if you are governed by negative emotions. A happy person will be much more resilient against manipulation. Happiness is not to be confused with stupidity. Even though anger can be a great force for change, it is more suited for revolutions after which the revolutionaries have to set up their own system of manipulation, for they have never grown out of it, it is still in their system.

Right Said Ralf. You are right that emotions can be onesided, misinformed, etc. The problem comes when this is the go-to response of others or ourselves, as in, "It's not so bad," kind of thinking, which is what we're talking about here. "Happiness is a choice suits the establishment - 'I don't think so. It is much better to keep ordinary people at a mild level of discomfort...' " -- That doesn't rebut what I said. I agree that the purpose in keeping people unhappy while telling them it's their fault - and that they would be happy if only they chose to - is to keep them off balance and blaming themselves for their own emotions rather than rightly blaming exploitative employers. Look up the Templeton Foundation and John Templeton Jr for more on this. So far as I've read, they don't openly admit that they advocate manipulating workers in this way, but it's clear from their philosophy and background that that is exactly what they're intending. I didn't mention anger. Dissatisfaction was more what I was thinking. It's what has got me out of unpleasant situations without need for a revolution. Anger comes later, when needs are ignored or dismissed.

Yeah and this thinking can lead to inaction while accepting something that could and / or should be changed. I think that this kind of thinking is actually a cover-up of one´s fear that once you admit it´s bad, you would HAVE to do something about it. But then again, when emotions run too low, you run the risk of seeing everything through the negative lens and of missing out on opportunities, because you are so busy being against something or someone. It´s about: which emotional condition can give you the clearest sight and the most options for doing something that´s necessary / appropriate.

As for myself i should have plea barganed would have spent less time in the joint. Learned lots in there of the 6 years i was there . Did read and pray much and tried to make the best use of my time. Didnt punch a time clock or worry about cars houses or being fired . Wish i would have gone into the military to travel and learn a good trade. Its much harder to get a job as a felon. Will think about a way out of my current problems. Would like to get back to being a diamond cutter. Love working with gemstones more than anything else in the world.

I think admitting to cheating on a partner may be a mistake. I haven't cheated, but were I the type to do so, I think that admitting it to my partner (the implication is that I've decided to cheat no more) could easily destroy a relationship that might have worked otherwise, in the end.

I rally liked your presentation. A little piece of constructive criticism. Is good to go through your speech and see if you can say things with a few less words so that you can feel a little less rushed as you're working through it and maybe learn how to pause at the right time. It felt as if you were running out of time and you had to get all of your thoughts out; but overall it was really good I really like the sentiment and I really like the idea.
