Assuming your career path is skill-based, your resume will open doors for you after a while, that is how I have advanced. I don't attend industry events, I don't join local professionals groups, I don't write books, I don't give talks, I don't post on social media, to all but a few people I am at most a comment or two under a youtube video with a happy piece of poop for a user image... and yet I have advanced to a senior position in my career and make good money. That comes entirely from learning skills and doing my best at every job I have had, not from networking or being even remotely known.

I've also landed my top 3 biggest clients ever via social media. There's a balance of course, and being connected with the right people is even more important. Being able to digitally detox and unfollow people whom the chapter of your connection has ended.

His rule benefited his culture, his times, his community, his people, his legacy, even his enemies who had to become stronger due to threat.. before he was "almost" erased. Even his story benefited those who knew of him . Witness yourself and i". He was not a nobody who lived invisibly, set no example, benefited no one, and died.

    I have always subscribed to the philosophy of invisibility and I agree with the reasons you have provided. I think it began with not wanting to play the games that others play and finding that attention seeking people were pretentious. Initially I was ostracized by others and felt hurt and excluded. Growing up with low self esteem prevented me from taking the center stage or feeling self important and worthy of people's attention. After spending so much time alone and watching others rise and fall, I realized just how lucky I was to be unnoticed. I wanted the superpower of invisibility. I began to make sure that I looked ordinary and avoided the limelight. In doing so, I managed to avoid negative attention or be bullied or suspect. I think the biggest challenge to living this lifestyle was to find a way to become financially independent. Once you are no longer reliant upon others financially and for approval and attention, you can truly be free and do almost anything you want virtually unnoticed.

    This is the greatest part about getting older. I found when I was a younger woman, there was more judgement when out in public. If someone thought you were attractive, they'd stare at you or approach you. If someone thought you were unattractive or they were intimidated by you, they'd snicker to their friends or give you sour looks. It was hard to escape constant judgement based solely on appearances. I'm in my late 40s now and get way less attention. If I smile or am kind to someone, there's no weird assumptions of me flirting or anything like that.

It's not a statement of what should be, it's not saying anyone thinking or acting differently is wrong. Honestly, it's not introverts who judge in any case, it's usually extroverts who do that. They judge introverts all the time, always asking if we're okay if we're quiet or want to be alone. They assume we're depressed or that there's something wrong with us. I get that often. But no, as for my comment above, and the two others who replied to me, there's no judging. I don't get why you commented with what you did.

    I've been a nobody for most of my life. In school they called me mr. nobody, which was refreshing. I didn't like the attention and I still don't. Being an introvert may have an influence. For some time in the past years, I somehow lost myself in showing off and trying to be special while being creative, until people recognized me and I hated it so much. I value privacy a lot, so I went back to be nobody, not looking for attention from strangers, not showing my face or name online. And I feel so much happier and authentic. Most people don't need to know who you are. It's enough if your loved ones know and rather spend your time and focus on them and yourself, not on some shallow strangers. It brings a lot of peace to know you're nobody to the world.

    I find that being invisible gives me more control. When others speak and direct attention, it invites people to chatter about them when they are not there. Being in the sidelines and invisible doesn't give other people opportunities to speak about you or on you. It's only your actions that you allow to speak for you. Plus, if you have a special someone, you only want to be 'visible' to them. Visibility then becomes a concept of love, loyalty, vulnerability and most importantly trust. Great video!

They cannot fathom not throwing themselves into the risky lifestyle of surrendering yourself to other people, destroying parts of oneself as some kind of sick sacrifice to gain validation. Because, they get that validation. But they don't know what happens when they begin to step out of line, that they're essentially surrundering their control to complete strangers who will determine whether they are to be considered Acceptable or Not. The less we depend on people for happiness, the the less enslaved we are, that is part of acquiring true freedom. Thank you for these videos!

Being someone to look up to. I am a complete version of apathy and indifference. I dont wish ill on anyone. I wish all to succeed. But not being liked is the same as the sky being blue to me now. It is what it is. Doesnt matter at the end of the day. You dont need anyone to reaffirm your existence. You exist and therefore you matter. Your presence brings something no one to elses can. Also, as long as you dont care about anything, you are truly free to be yourself. Genuine. No fake shit. No facade. No mask. And that in itself is a priceless feeling. And while you do have to give up some things such as (goals, ambitions and dreams with a burning desire and passion) the upsides are worth it.

All the people we think of as *"Stars"* eventually fall out of the Heavens ( just like in the book of Revelations) I quote *"Then the stars of the sky fell to the earth like green figs falling from a tree shaken by a strong wind."* When we think of people in the limelight we kind of imagine they will live forever and yet when they die the whole world gets to realize that they were never imortal.

    There's difference. These people are born in life with a mission. You can't prevent purposeful people to change history and leave legacy after they're gone. It's just different characteristic and mindset.

    When I entered the workforce, I was told to make myself relevant and visible to the bosses and stakeholders. You are supposed to stand out, not just for the promotion but also to justify the salary they are paying you. It’s not enough to just do your job and grind quietly at your desk everyday. There are things that I do to just to show I am still working here and not forgotten. It’s just part of the game.

    The workplace has a way of making you feel like you're an actor in a play, especially in office jobs. People are usually different in their personal life than they are at work and it's like you and all of your co-workers know this but you're still all playing along for the sake of work. It's a very strange atmosphere the corporate world has created.

    Thank you for elucidating so eloquently what I've felt for so long. Something that's caused so much conflict, and yet, I keep choosing invisibility everytime. Instinctively, I guess, making sense to me in the way you describe. Painfully though, it takes a long long time for people to see and appreciate; when trying to make and deepen friendships, finding and being a partner in a serious relationship...

    I am a video game developer (Level Designer) with more than 20 years of experience and throughout my career of several released titles, there have been literally millions of people who've played my work, have experienced the gameplay scenarios and locations that I designed for them to play...and they don't know who I am. It also happened on one occasion in Hamburg when I was wearing a shirt that had the logo of the game company I was working for at the time, and I was mobbed by a dozen kids and teenagers who had a million questions about the next game we were making. I love being invisible.

    When I was younger, I always look for recognition from others... I dont want to trauma dump but I figured the reason why I acted that way is because I always look for my parents recognition growing up. I received significant recognitions lately (from my company and school) and nobody knows about it 😂😂😂 I decided to stay lowkey because I dont want people expect too much from me... its exhausting really

    Fame has always seemed like it would be terrible to me. While I hope my words affect others or inspires a change, I find myself only really able to have awareness of that by not being subject to attention for the act. It seems inauthentic, I question my own and others motives when seeking fame or recognition of a good deed. One loses sight of the inner self when the focus, the desire is attention and approal from others. I was never content when I did this, never will be... that is what being able to with self has shown me.

    Even though I showed my face (people say it helps with the views when you put a human face on the thumbnail), I purposefully decided to start a channel in English so in case it blows up I don’t have a heart attack because it’s becoming “famous”. I make sure NO ONE who knows me in real life is aware of this channel so chances to be disclosed in my country are near 0. Only now do I realize the advantage of knowing a foreign language 😂 Otherwise I wouldn’t be able to talk publicly about what I really want to talk about. Btw your channel is one of my favorites and was a great motivation to start recording my own videos.

While that was horrible thinking, I managed to go out into the world to seek and find people, places and things that allowed me to experience. Not being stuck on the approval of family members, my life invested loved varieties. Being in my 60’s enjoying doing things I love listening online to uplifting, encouraging, challenging, meaningful, mind opening stories is adventurous. Thanks for reading my comments. Smiles

I lost my dad @18 months, my mom is a narcissist, my half brother hates me because I came along and took my dad from him. I got rejected a lot in Utah not being Mormon. I’ve never fit in and I have desperately wanted to be noticed because I’ve been alone most of my life. I’ve tried social media doesn’t work for me it’s too easy to get wrapped up in likes and metrics and it sucks. My KZread channel 😅 I think secretly I don’t want to be seen and I’ve had this hole I’ve been trying to fill. Epiphany just happens. Thanks man.
