Or Epictetus "Some things are in our control and others not. Things in our control are opinion, pursuit, desire, aversion, and, in a word, whatever are our own actions. Things not in our control are body, property, reputation, command, and, in one word, whatever are not our actions. The things in our control are by nature free, unrestrained, unhindered; but those not in our control are weak, slavish, restrained, belonging to others. Remember, then, that if you suppose that things which are slavish by nature are also free, and that what belongs to others is your own, then you will be hindered. You will lament, you will be disturbed, and you will find fault both with gods and men. But if you suppose that only to be your own which is your own, and what belongs to others such as it really is, then no one will ever compel you or restrain you. Further, you will find fault with no one or accuse no one. You will do nothing against your will. No one will hurt you, you will have no enemies, and you not be harmed."

Like mama never shamed me if I didn't get an A; she just asked "did you really try your best?" or "could you have done better?" Put the focus on the doing and methodology. If you focus on the results alone, your children will learn to cheat their ways through life, and that's not what good parenting is about.

I can look up at the clouds in the sky and accept them because they really do exist, and if I needed more proof all I would need to do is physically feel the rain. After all, rain itself is formed within the aforementioned clouds. While it is a pretty combination of words, the metaphor rings hollow due to the physical and objective truth of the cloud’s existence, as compared to the intangible and completely subjective and interpretive nature of one’s emotion.

Good conversation. The problem is that outcomes are often the measuring stick of your actions' effectiveness. If you do your best but always fail, what does it say about you? Dr. K. is essentially asking people to believe in themselves and to remain open to possibilities. This is good advice, but it is a bit easier to be self-confident when you've already achieved some measure of success yourself, like he did.

@Haannibal777

I am still learning this thing myself. But to me, there is a hidden layer to all this. Where do you draw the line in blaming yourself or not. If your action leads to a direct outcome that you can control, then you should take accountability. But if it is not, especially given the circumstance, then you should be compassionate to yourself. This applies to you being seen or not seen, judged or not judged, liked or not liked.

Thinker1985 wrote, _"The problem is that outcomes are often the measuring stick of your actions' effectiveness."_ The **imposed** measuring stick. This is a crucial distinction. Just because someone may resort to this or that outcome as a measure, doesn't mean that it's a sensible or relevant metric. Think: _"If you do your best but always fail, what does that say about you?"_ Perhaps nothing at all. Suppose I work out 3x a week and I'm doing the very best that I can, but despite my most conscientious efforts, I gain little or no muscle. What does that say about me? Nothing. It may point to a biological dysfunction of which I'm unaware, in which case it would say something about my body, but not about me per se. Think: _"Dr. K. is essentially asking people to believe in themselves..."_ I don't get this sense about his perspective. My understanding is that he's asking people to realize that 'who they are' is not in any legitimate way attached to the outcome of 'what they do'. There can be some correlations that may, or may not, strongly suggest causation but for the most part... we do what we do for a reason, and that reason needs to be detached from the outcome -- at least to the degree that if we get what we were hoping for, or if we don't, the outcome says absolutely nothing about our worth. Think: _"...it is a bit easier to be self-confident hen you've already achieved some measure of success"_ Except that this is circular reasoning. 'Success' is not something you can control. That's the point he keeps returning to. So to address your take on this: you're imposing 'success' as the metric by which you measure your self-worth. Dr. K. is saying not to do this because, as he noted, if your sense of worth is tied to outcomes that you cannot control, you're never going to be a happy, fulfilled, contented human being. Offering my perspective here in the hope that you'll find something therein helpful to your understanding of all this. Cheers!

In Bhagvad gita krishna says that " you do the action and surrender the result of that action to me." He means do not take pride or feel ashamed of the result as they both incur bad karma. Which will become an obstacle in attaining salvation.

This crossed my feed at a funny time as the zen book I'm reading just went into passages on the core concept of this discussion. "A man rings like a cracked bell when he thinks and acts with a split mind - one part standing aside to interfere with the other, to control, to condemn, to admire. The illusion of the split comes from the mind's attempt to be both itself and it's idea of itself, from a fatal confusion of fact with symbol. The mind must stop trying to act upon itself, upon its stream of experience, from the standpoint of the idea of itself which we call the ego." - The Way of Zen, Pg. 134 We have ideas and beliefs, but we are not those ideas and visions of what we should be. We simply are what experiences the present.

Self esteem is generally how you view yourself as compared to others, especially in a social situation. Educate yourself well, take opportunities to travel, and hone your public speaking and debate skills. Its just a muscle that needs to be trained like any other. The hard part: getting started and staying at it.

Dr. K is one of the few KZread creators who talk about self-efficacy and self-actualization from a truly balanced and holistic perspective as opposed to the "grindset" bs.

Coolest podcast set up I’ve ever seen

The trouble I always run into when I start to dissolve the ego is: why do anything? It's a continuum, and one I start marching down. So instead I tirelessly pursue success. And I achieve everything I want for the most part, but it doesn't change much. Except I can measure some aspects like money and titles which feels comforting. Not even good, but comforting.

Thank you for this beautiful video. I'm at psychotherapy for a while. And I'm thinking of these things in the last few days. It's absolutely astonishing to understand how simple the real truth is. But making this accomplishment is a very hard road to go. There a lot of tears and fear on it. But the result is definitely worth it. So, thank you a lot, Dr.K and Chris, for this conversation!

Dr. K just distilled the crux of Bhagvad Gita there! We are ever a catalyst of great or sorrow happenings, all action flows through us and there is no place in the universe to claim doership over any of it. No claim over a reward or result, we can only strive for being the best vessel for creation.

i think it’s only with an ego, identity, or sense of self that compassion can exist because it requires the concept of self in relationship to other (another person, a pet, etc). i think ego to a degree balanced with the feminine is healthy. ego allows us to be responsible for our actions and can give us a healthy sense of purpose to be in good relationship with all the things around us.

Another great video, thanks so much for sharing this!

Grad school taught me this lol. Came in having something to prove, left with realizing that game is just a game, it doesn't define my worth.

I liked Alex hormozi’s goal setting method where you have a outcome you want and a hypothesis of how a will lead to b, and then your actual goal is the list of actions and tactics that yiu 100% control that make up the inputs of A that then lead to the hypothesized outputs of B. And so you basically just judge your self on the execution of inputs you can control but not on outputs but you reevaluate your hypothesis every quarter or so, and iterate from there but you can always this way be like “I’m crushing it and making progress” even when the out come dosent work. He also said it’s better to go in the direction of the cheese in general than to set the goal to reach the cheese only. Cuz maybe it got moved and you can’t see in a dark room

Chris Williamson and JRE feel like the only straightforward and honest podcasters. Like, dr K asks something and Chris says it doesn't make sense. Ah a good conversation.

Aka "Focus on the process not the results" :-)

I feel like people make a big deal about everything. KZread made everything too big and gave people anxiety. Just do what you know you have to to achieve.

That was deep

It doesn't matter whether a person has no self worth (most people do not), an inflated sense of self worth, or anything in between. Life is to be gotten on with; to be endured until we finally make our escape. None of us asked for this ridiculous existence we call the human experience. None of us has any choice in when, where, or how we check out - okay, if we're doing something stupid, we shouldn't be surprised, but other than that. It's just avoidance of pain and a marathon until the end. There's no real meaning or purpose to life, which is probably the meaning and/or purpose to life. We exist; we make the best of it, and then we clock out.

I like this guy.

You can’t control the extern results, but you may influence them alot. Because you do a great job.

Yes. You will have those feelings anyway. They are part of the human experience, and they should be. But when you learn this way of thinking as described in the video, those feelings don't control you. You can observe yourself suffering, and have compassion. And then, you can move forward. We can have a positive influence on other people, but we can't control it. Sometimes we do it when we don't realize. Sometimes we can put in a lot of effort, but the other person actually needs something else, or someone else. You shouldn't tie your selfworth to the outcome. Because both positive and negative outcomes will happen, and then your selfworth gets thrown around.

Thanks for your answer:) In my perspective, there is a time (we can hope) where you will be on the top of the wave, surfing easyly with life. Because you have success, because you reach your goals. Probably it won’t last, and their will be lot of up and downs.. but I think we should enjoy this moment and also realize what we have accomplished. The Ego has succeeded! If it was aligned with your passion, with your higher self, well done! And you should be proud of what you have done. And inevitably it gives you more confidence in your intuition, in your strenght. So in my perspective, be free to nurture your esteem with it (but not only) and just know that the game is not finished. There will be down times, know it, embrace it, and know what you’re capable. It will give you more ressource when times becomes harder..
