Why You're Not Where You Want to Be (You're Better Than This!)

[@depressiontoexpression]

INTERESTED IN WHAT I TALKED ABOUT AT THE END OF THE EPISODE? www.scottstemarie.com/8weekswithscott

[@lesleycerda]

Hi Scott my name I want to thank you for motivating me and inspiring me not to give up. I have a youtube channel and I would love to collaborate if you would like.

[@Miranda_Writes]

See, that's what always makes me roll my eyes and feel bad about myself is when people say, "You need to get uncomfortable" in order to accomplish things. But your words always make me feel better. Thank you.

[@mirac8803]

It's kinda true tho.. our goals are our goals cuz they are out of our comfort zones. Nothing inside our comfort zone is ever really a goal

[@Sun-ic7rq]

I'm sick of being personally blamed and treated less than for not being able to afford a million dollar home.

[@Crayolapup]

I used to watch your videos 9 years ago when I didn’t feel too great. Back when I started to feel like something may not be completely right with me. Thats when I started connecting small tiny dots. I’ve just been myself around people with a lot of life experience, and they noticed how I talked. How it was just very negative. They suggested I try therapy. I’ve also noticed that I struggle a lot. I’ve been experiencing brain fog for so long, that I didn’t know it was brain fog. I thought that was just how my brain is. On Thursday I saw a psychiatrist and was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety, Social Anxiety, Persistent Depression, & Major Depression.

I just realized that i am comfortable in my misery.. because i feel like i don't deserve better things .. thanks for making me realize it

[@fernandogarciamuedano]

Thank you so very much Scott. I have been struggling with depression and anxiety since I was a kid. There are long periods of time where I'm well enough to do what I have to do, what I want to do and to feel like I’m being myself. This is not one of those times. I feel like I’m at risk of falling again and I want to prevent that. I have been watching your videos for a couple of years and they have made me feel seen and like I am not that alone. I really needed this one right now. I am an artist and my main message for the last years has always been compassion. I have to learn to have it for myself as much as I have it for others. I might reach out to you and the community you are talking about at some point. I had thought of it for some time. I don’t think it will be any much longer for me to dare. Thank you again.

[@Diane-pe8or]

I’ve always wanted to leave my abusive family, to break free, and really be there and be loving for my kids.I can’t seem to find the way, or the desire to begin. I feel heart broken and lifeless

[@StephaniRoberts]

I’ve been there. Sending Love your way. 💓 I think Scott is right with setting a goal or intention for yourself. I decided I was getting out and then all kinds of things happened that pushed me and also opened the door. Lots of little and not so little decisions. But the main thing is to take care of you, your body, mind and spirit so it even feels POSSIBLE to leave. Self care, belief in a higher power, are essential…it’s the fuel that will allow you to stay the course. You’ll get there. 🌞💛 💛🙏🏼

[@iffat3547]

Fighting every step with an abusive mother,am 32, still suffering.

[@nicolebelfiore7580]

Do anything you can possibly do to get out and do something productive. You will feel better. Volunteer, be around caring people. You will feel like you matter.

[@SFALCON-nd4fl]

I am not where I want to be… At the age of 46, I don’t have any power left to try. 5:31 I made a mistake to go for divorce instead of following him for his career choice and place. I believed I deserve a better relationship, better place and better life and I thought nothing could stop me from getting it. So, here I am… You are different and REAL Scott. Thanks for sharing these videos… …☘☘

[@Ritubhati06]

This man is hella underrated!! You transformed me!!!!

[@miowes3473]

[@janielalande]

It's like you are talking directly to me. Thank you Scott

[@stephaniezuercher87]

I feel the same, every time…😄♥️🙏🏼

[@Khaegch-favh]

I love this guys sense of humor and deep empathy for people. Been a while since I've just heard someone speak like into people in such a real way-- the authenticity is really shining through ✨️

[@Omar-wi1ks]

Such a coincidence that you uploaded this video, and thats I'm going through feeling this way. I have had moments where I'm feeling hopeless. I just let myself know that its okay, somehow someway this is happening even i dont see it by having faith and thanks for mentioning this scott!

[@betsylynnvedrine3784]

My insecurities and past trauma not to mention being a preachers daughter is a major tool with distancing myself.

[@luisbatista5]

Scott today you nail it, you explained to us why we haven't left our comfort zone and why we haven't yet achieved our life goal, whatever we think/idealize it to be. Thanks for that

[@deniz1121]

Can't tell how much you are helping me soothe my mind through hard days. This 'loving parent' metaphor really touched me. Grateful for everything you've done. Much love from Türkiye. 🙏

[@TrapToise]

Scott I’ve been subbed to you for a while now and I just want to say thank you, this video was very needed for me, and you’re providing plenty of people with videos that need to be seen and heard by those that are dealing with any mental or emotional struggles currently, please keep up your work in helping others, you’re doing tremendous work!

[@StrangerToEarth]

The perfect video for me right now. Needed every word. Made my day instantly brighter and made me feel stronger and less lost. Thank you dude

[@hootoo6411]

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭thank you , I’m crying right now..

[@donovancatuncan2617]

Thank you for being a voice of reason at the start of every week ❤

[@MarthaLuciaDiazAcosta]

Thank You :) Scott. I am forcing myself to make time for the gym I had always been sporty and I was losing that due to work schedule. I feel so good after workout it's worth it.

[@betsylynnvedrine3784]

Like getting a new job and everyone is so proud of me. But it’s not what it’s cracked up to be. I’m thinking to myself “What the hell am I doing here?”

[@nelilevstek13]

Thanks, Scott!❤

[@LeslieChang-g8t]

[@muhammadhamza4494]

I just loved this video.

[@MansaSingh-wq8ed]

And there will be never comfortable, I know..that's true.. Well wishers never changed

[@sophiapde9369]

Good to see you Scott..my problem is i want to believe so much in the After life, not sure how even..but I know if I was to name an Album, I would call it " Afterlife "..

[@NelisaGumbi]

Gosh, such an impactful 24mins.

[@mirac8803]

Thank you for this video!! :) Everyone has their own goals and aspirations in mind, so I think if someone wants to 10X their income and be rich that's also their right to do so, nothing disgusting in that at all ^^ Doing so might be what is part of what's spiritually fulfilling for someone too! However yes, love the message in general... we are worth it, no matter whatever impression anyone else might have given to us. Because that is their perception, ans theirs only. ❤

[@andresg2406]

Great Scott!, your words are filled with love and grace ❤. I am interested about the thing at the end of the talk. Feel welcomed to meditate in Mexico's mountains too. Huge hug

[@betsylynnvedrine3784]

[@MansaSingh-wq8ed]

Sometimes people want to put your all light in dark... And they work for years...for this..

[@fernwee5388]

Thank you🌟

[@GF86123]

Great video thanks!

[@benyf01]

Thanks for believing in me

[@betsylynnvedrine3784]

Two failed marriages. Both ex husbands divorced me. So yes I feel like it’s all my fault . Fast forward, I’m older and a bit wiser but always thinking something will pop off with my current guy , or that I won’t be good enough for him .

[@ek6919]

Scott, I love science too. Unfortunately, I live in Florida where the school system is probably the worst in the world, so of course the teachers are horrible. What a shame.

[@KandyKoatedKrafts]

Excellent video 🧡🍁🧡

[@killercopywriter]

thank you, you helped me

[@carolinlovelifecoach]

[@johnCjr4671]

Everything has fallen apart for me at 60 years old , hard to loose everything and regroup at this point in my life ?? 😢

[@josephpeterson346]

Non scripted good podcast that has good stories is the duck call room

[@workonprogressnyc]

Thanks...for this..but....there is more layers to this subject to conquer...very deep and complicated indeed...sometimes the lost souls and damaged ones are hard to convince with words...just words ....and empty promises ...😢...anyway God is in charge...peace and love to the universe.

[@parsat90-]

I miss you

[@fateme-w2q8p]

Thank you for another great video Just a sidenote, to muslims, Mohammad is the prophet, Allah is the arabic word for God

[@abigailmcdonald3300]

Just give me credit for something or say at least you tried. It would be nice to just hear those words and not feel like oh how long is it going to last for you to disappointed in me. Disappointed that i didn't get it all it one shot. Because i realize if i tried and got it you'd say yes you've made it but if i tried and failed, did i even try at all.

[@pannitalmadge7464]

Meds suck

[@kaleyjoplinRAWRR]

16:57 thank you for this, I need to hear this. It’s hard for me to accept it though.
