What the heck happened to Self Improvement?

Yo, been some time.
This video shows the subjectivity of Self Improvement. What I try to achieve with it is telling you that it's ultimately up to us what we value in life.
Self Improvement Videos mostly show us delayed gratification activities that make our lives better, according to societal beliefs. This certainly can help, if you are completely lost in life. But in the end, it's all about working towards what you want.
I'm not trying to bash on all self improvement videos, but there are many that are extremely dry and only give generic advice.
If you watch a video about "How to do X better, in order to achieve Y" then sure go ahead, as long as X and Y are important to you, that video will probably help you.
But please, think for yourself. Find out what you think is valuable. That's completely up to you. You do this by experiencing life to the fullest, going on adventures, learning about different philosophies and belief systems, questioning ideas and concepts and reflecting a lot.
Hope you got something valuable from this. Not my best work, but I wanted to talk about this, even if it might not resonate with many people.

Thanks for watching! Quick side note: I am not hating on Self Improvement Videos in general, just the ones that give dry and generic advice. Like yeah, if you are absolutely lost in life, getting some structure from a morning routine will probably help you. But in the end it's up to you and what you think is worth working for. Setting, working towards, and achieving goals is, at least for me, the most fun thing in life. And I can only recommend you guys try this as well :) Affordable Coaching: www.tobi-education.com/program Community: group.tobi-education.com/

I think @charlotte is joking, but if you want a opinion on the truth here it is, be in silence to know the chaos of your mind you will find some or too many shit you think you want because others say it's good to desire it, you might (as I am not a expert I can't say for certain) gain a more clear idea of things you want to focus on.

The only valuable thing that you can get from his videos is in the 1 hour long full guide playlists. Full of things that he had recently learnt with some sorts of his life experiences that may resonate you and help you to overcome in order to achieve more goals AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. Perhaps, his previous videos seemingly having no point anymore because it also seems repetitive, yet his full guides like podcast or over an hour videos may probably not gonna waste your time instead of watching his stimulating edited short videos. Learn from other's experiences if you want to achieve more in less time and be wise on investing your time on learning from self-improvement videos out there. :)

How long have you been watching self improvement? And when did you stopped watching? If self improvement did that to you, well you might be applying stuffs that actually not suits for you. Adjust a bit until you find the good spot for you. improving oneself requires a pure SPECIFIC skill that anyone should attain and train for. But i'm still searching for that specific skill because my knowledge is still lacking, but for now, it might be discipline, willpower, and self-reflection. I'm constantly searching for it and find out what specific skill suits for me in order to improve myself as a whole.

There is a thing I thought about,life is not about right or wrong,there is no wrong or right way to live life,you just live it and the way you live it until the end of it,is the right way to live it. The right way to live life is just your entire life from beginning till the end and that is also the meaning of life itself.
I agree. I resonate with creators who talk about why they are doing something self improvement related. It gives context to how the action might actually help you. Yes there are problems we all deal with (or most of us), but everybody's life is different and has different problems. Thanks for the video.
Got this video randomly since there is almost no self-improvement vids in my reccomendations, since I finally understand what I seek from self-improvement after 2 years. I want to be more easy-going with less negative emotions(since they always got in my way), have more compassion towards myself and others(recovering sociopath) and love. Genuine love with I girl I will not only die for, but for whom I will want to live. That's it. I don't want hundred Buggaties or super-yacht. Previous things will make me happier than ever and everything else will be just a bonus. Thank you for you videos.

@@Anasto_ No problem man. My current things from self improvement, that I could implement: studying, having sleep schedule, going to the gym, eating healthy, taking cold showers. 1)Cold showers: Dose of noradrenaline, adrenaline and dopamine wakes me up instantly and gives me a lot of pleasure, like I am taking a drug, but it is healthy. It also boosted my immunity so much that I don't remember when I was sick last time. Also doing hard thing first thing in a day makes everything after a bit easier. 2)Sleep schedule: Appeared randomly after a long time of sleeping randomly after midnight. Was hard to keep up at first, but I love sleeping and with schedule I can do it more effectively and can let myself lay in bed for some time at the morning. 3)Gym: Was bullied by my brother for many years because of my weight. Because of that I started going there. After several years I noticed that my body changed a lot. I am still lazy, but my body is worth it, because(bad sides help here) I see in real life that I am better than most and am more handsome. Also (sociopath kicks in) I know that with such body I can fight with much stronger opponents if I have to, though I try to avoid those situations since I am recovering and have a goal of being kinder man. 4)Healty eating: I feel much MUCH better after starting eating veggies and fruits. Even directly after eating, so that was easy to implement. It just makes everything else better. 5)Studying: I don't know. I simply force myself. Sometimes I feel like doing it, mostly not, here you just have to do a little day by day, doing at least something since, if you don't study, society(most likely, if you are not Andrew Tate) will destroy you. Basically, I use my bad sides to help me at my self-improvement and also use small dosages at first. I use my narcissistic and sociopathic sides in a way, that I need to work or I won't be able to keep up with my identity of being "main hero" or simply being better than 80-90% of people. Small dosages are needed to simply build habits. Need to go to the gym? Go there, do a little training or simply run and that's it. Build habit, then upgrade it. Don't burn all your motivation in one go and then forget about any further action. It works with everything. I hope you will become a better man. I also hope, that this helps. Have a good day.

I agree with you! Self improvement is something you have to find yourself and do yourself.
Wow I’ve seen this video in my recommended but never clicked on it before. This is fantastic my friend. Very nice points and perspectives o7
I agree bro. Thanks for making a video about it
Thanks man this is what i wanted after watching countless vids and not realizing that i can now answer those problems myself
Thank you for your hard work and effort.
Other people's experiences can help you improve SOME aspects of your life but the fact that each of us is an INDIVIDUAL. There is no guideline that works 100% for everyone. You are right about that, very good Video though, very good Video.
The way I went about uncovering my ideals and systems of belief in life were by analyzing my suffering, simply one of the things this man mentioned in this video. In retrospect, some of my past influences were the actual reasons for why I wasn't getting anywhere in life, hence the gist for my prolonged suffering. Thus, watching this video is a great start, since a lot of our influences are self-help videos, in this case.
Thanks man, this helped quite a bit.
Awesome video. Keep up the good work.
i actually fuc with this video so heavy thank you bro ❤
Your video about overcoming adversity was very inspiring.
Finally a different self improvement video
This is exactly why your videos are the only "self improvement videos" that I watch, because they actually make a valid point and encourage critical thinking lol
First comment 🎉 Love your vids, man. You're gonna go far.
this is really true i just stopped consuming excessively self-improvement contents and just work on my own goals
Facts bro💯, I spend 5 months doing copywriting hoping to get $10 a month to invest in my music career. But I did get a dime because I absolutely hated it I hate you to each and every single process but I pretended as if it is my sole purpose to do so. So I talked it and continued with my music journey❤. Since then everything has just been going smoothly and my life is way better than it was 5 months ago
I think one of the best tips for self improvement is the recap. At the end of the day think of what u did well, and what would u change. That way u dont make the same mistakes while praising ur self. And this aligns with ppls belief systems. Like if somebody thinks getting overweight is their goal, they can praise themselves for eating alot.
Absolutely goated music choice 🔥
You can experience life all the time, even on KZread. There’s good exercise to do also. Like you said in the beginning. Why is it better to do something else for development than KZread? Etc etc. Doing things outside KZread is better according to me also. The argumentation gets quickly out of hand, and the you just say something you value instead 😃 that’s how it works.
Not here because I watch self improvement anymore, I actively try to improve myself as a person whether it be mentally, physically, emotionally, etc. and havegotten past the point where I need to watch youtube videos on self improvement, but y'know i'm watching this out of curiosity, and your channel is pretty cool! Though I likely won't be watching anything else
I like your video very much and a big plus point for the zelda music
The Bible is the ultimate self-improvement book, please just read it people, it changed my view on life and I think I'm happier overall, even if you're not looking to Christian (but you should), please at least embrace some kind of other religion. Religion is the best self-improvement movement.
Cool bro, thanks
1. SELF improvement improves nothing else. It's men's version of narcissistic selfies, but with mirror validation instead of internet point validation. It involves nobody else 2. As you said, self improvement is so vaguely defined. If someone wants to improve physique, he should specify physique improvement 3. It's a social media fad. I think watching self improvement videos gives viewers credit to themselves for improving without improving. Fitness is such a common example, but there can be a middle ground for physique improvement. What exercises should someone do? The best 1st step is to go to a gym and try things until the best things for the body are found out through trial and error. The 2nd best thing is to hear advice from fitness youtubers about what exercises he recommends or advise against. I've tried plate loaded incline leg presses a few times and they are back ruiners, just as some say. What works best for my body are (assisted) calisthenics and machines to help me get there (lateral pulldowns to train for pullups next). Having anything against my back feels uncomfortable, so I avoid things like bench pressing. I'd much rather do pushups as a similar exercise. Okay, maybe I elaborated my own personal experience too much 4. Every body is different, just like mine explained above, but social media has created such a metagame around everything that there's no more belief in everybody being different. Everything is overly optimized for someone else's correct theoretical best results. The best path towards improvement is to just jump in blindly and learn 1:1 what the real things are like 5. How does a man improve things beyond himself to end his own isolation beyond bicep baiting girls to approach him? I have no idea beyond prioritizing customers 1st at the job. However, sleighves don't get rewarded for their contributions and sacrifices because too many employees and especially managers are too narcissistic and psychopathic, which is basically just enhanced narcissism anyways 6. Stop using social media including stop looking at self improvement content unless you reach an impasse and you need new outside information to consider to get through something. Social media is narcissism media. It divides people into thinking only of themselves. Don't be another narcissist
Thank you for sharing your journey to success. What advice do you have for someone just starting out?"

Basically, you need to have a reason or purpose for what your doing, imagine taking cold shower or building a muscular body without even knowing why we ate doing it. Self improvement is what we want to improve in our life, not what internet says you to do to improve. If your not good at studies and you have to get good grades, improve studies, this is what u call self improvement is basically, don't have to work out for muscular body if u don't like to , if you think girls only like muscular guys , then change your mindset.

Bro I remember when Hamza used to be a good KZreadr with solid points and morals. Now he’s just some sigma male who goes and hangs out with different girls everyday instead of taking care of his parents and being religious. That’s one part Hamza sucks at relationships and religion which arguably is the two most important things about self improvement. With religion you are basically on self improvement, without it you’re just a human living a purposeless existence that only cares about materialistic things.

@@martinyt-ob3xn yes, humans are “religious” by default. All have some sort of spiritual need, and it can show in many ways. What I’m not interested in, is the organized religion. Or, if I would belong, it would either be Buddhism or Catholicism maybe, confucianism has some good values also. The thing is, I find all that from psychology, philosophy and science anyway. I see my self as a person on a journey, and I have all the potential inside me already.

It's quite ironic. On the one hand, you start to say that self-improvement videos rarely help you improve, and this is something that this kind of KZreadr won't tell you because they won't be able to sell his courses. Then at the end of the video you presents a $685 couching program. I honestly thought it was some kind of joke until I saw it was true lol.
I expected a good criticism, but was left with a philosophical masturbation. Thats why ppl dont look at philosophy seriously. If somebody clicks on a video about women, what do you guys think he wants? 🤔 People that are over 20 yo and dont yet know what they want out of life are just in a children's mindset. Materialism gets downplayed so bad nowadays, but you have no idea how fast someone's mental health can get fixed if he just gets to have freedom,money and a woman. Years of philosophy of ,, finding yourself " and coping with your reality is lesser than just fulfilling your basic needs of shelter,food,sex,relationships,goals. Channels like Hamza's arent made for normies who cant find themselves, maybe this is where you got mistaken. Such channels are made for people that have suffered their whole life of feeling lesser than others and not experiencing any love, this is what they try to fix. Its for people that suffer and know why they suffer. I tought it was obvious. Its like if there are starving people and the self-improvement offers them bread and then you well fed normies come by and ask ,, Well, how does Hamza know that I want bread, I dont want bread, I want a pizza, self improvement lied to us that we gave bread" 😂😂😂
this video was more confusing then my computer science test 🤣
1:25 huh? its not all about females. if youre physically looking good it will help u in daily social interaction because people will see logically that u put work in yourself. So it can even help u in job interviews. if theres 2 people who just graduated college and have 0 experiences they take the one who seems more charismatic. and being either anorectic skinny or fat really wont help u. So yeah trying to be fit will only increase peoples opinion on u.
