1
I have good news and bad news.
2
It's not about you.
3
Imagine that somebody across the street waves at you, so you wave back to them.
4
But then you realize that they're waving at the guy behind you and you're so embarrassed that you want to evaporate.
5
You're going to replay this in the shower for the next three years.
6
Whereas the person who waved at you has already forgotten it by the time that they reached their friend.
7
See, the guy behind you never noticed.
8
Nobody on that street noticed either.
9
They weren't thinking about you.
10
Because everybody on that street was thinking about themselves.
11
That girl that you like who left your text on red three hours ago,
12
you've reread your own message four times looking for what you said wrong.
13
Meanwhile, she's in a dentist chair, or her dog just puked on her couch, or her phone died, or she saw it and thought,
14
I'll answer that later.
15
And then her brain did what every brain does with every text.
16
She forgot about it.
17
You're one of the 47 notifications that she got today wedged between a target receipt
18
and a reminder to renew her car registration.
19
Basically, it's not about you.
20
Or let's say the worst -case scenario is actually true.
21
She's not into you.
22
She doesn't want to see you.
23
She doesn't want to talk to you.
24
You can take that as a judgment on your character and value as a human being,
25
or you can realize that she has a vast network of internal values and associations that she's made,
26
and for whatever reason, your unique combination of traits
27
and behaviors does not stimulate the correct sequence of stimuli in her hypothalamus to trigger a conscious experience of arousal.
28
You didn't do anything wrong.
29
She didn't do anything wrong it was just never going to happen anyway, and it was always outside of your control.
30
Basically, it's still not about you.
31
Or how about this?
32
Your friend bails on your birthday dinner an hour before.
33
He doesn't even bother to text you an apology.
34
You feel angry, offended, humiliated.
35
How could you care about someone who clearly doesn't give two shits back?
36
You feel bad about yourself, and you feel even worse about them.
37
And you realize you are not a priority for them.
38
That perhaps they aren't even capable of making another human being a priority at all.
39
That perhaps they see all relationships as highly transactional, unsentimental, and conditional on getting something of value out of another person.
40
You realize that you opted into this dynamic yourself, whether consciously or unconsciously, and
41
that your naive romantic notions of a burgeoning bromance were premature at best and completely delusional at worst.
42
You realize that this
43
so -called friend who has ghosted you on the most important day of the year was never actually a friend at all.
44
They were only imagined to be a friend, and that they are likely suffering from the loneliness
45
and isolation of their emotionally siloed life far more than you ever will from having one fewer people at a birthday dinner.
46
Basically, you realize it's not about you. Or this.
47
You give a toast at your brother's wedding, and your voice cracks like you're 13.
48
You lose your place, you say um 11 times, and then you sit down certain that the whole room thinks that you're a fucking idiot.
49
Your face is flush with embarrassment, and you just want to curl up behind the DJ booth and die.
50
Yet research finds that fewer than a quarter of the people notice our most embarrassing moments.
51
The truth is, nobody fucking cares.
52
They are just happy to be at a wedding.
53
Happy the bride and groom are going to have a life together.
54
Happy that the dinner is four courses and all paid for.
55
Happy that they are going to get to dance to YMCA later
56
and hopefully make out with one of the bridesmaids behind the bar.
57
Happy that they are going to have an excuse to cancel all of their plans tomorrow when they have a hangover.
58
By the time you sit down, they have already forgotten that you even gave a speech.
59
Because it's not about you.
60
Or you find out your friends planned a weekend trip to Joshua Tree and you weren't in the group chat.
61
I mean, this one stings because it does feel like a verdict.
62
But group trips get planned by whoever happened to be at brunch that day.
63
Someone said, hey, we should go.
64
And four people said yes.
65
Someone made a chat and nobody stopped to audit the guest list.
66
And sure, maybe you weren't loved enough to be thought of in that moment.
67
Maybe they don't think of you as their bestest friend in the universe.
68
Maybe they don't pine for your presence in every free moment when you're not around.
69
Maybe they even find you to be a little bit needy, self -conscious, and exhausting.
70
Maybe one of the four guys actually secretly kind of doesn't like you.
71
Maybe they've actually known each other much longer than they've known you, and they pine for the days when they were a valiant foursome,
72
off on their own together.
73
Maybe they couldn't be bothered to invite other people, and they just didn't even think anything of it.
74
Basically, maybe it's not about you.
75
Or you get fired.
76
HR is in the room, there's a box for your stuff, and it feels like the most personal judgment imaginable.
77
They looked at you and they decided, this guy's not worth it.
78
But in truth, layoffs get decided in spreadsheets by people who have never heard your voice.
79
They don't recognize your name, and they certainly don't give a shit if you have a stellar personality or not.
80
A VP needed to cut 12 % of costs before the earnings call, and your salary was a sell in column F.
81
Congratulations, you get three months severance and a new LinkedIn profile picture.
82
But let's say it's even worse.
83
Let's say that you actually do fucking suck at your job, and you're fired for performance, and your manager is sick of your shit,
84
and his manager is breathing down his neck telling him to run a tighter ship.
85
So guess what?
86
You're done.
87
You're gone.
88
And it hurts.
89
It hurts to realize that you weren't good enough at that role to make the cut.
90
But maybe, maybe it's not just a lost job.
91
Maybe it's a market signal.
92
Maybe you were not right for that role to begin with.
93
Maybe it didn't suit your skill set or your personality or your interests, or you were never really motivated to do a good job anyway.
94
Maybe you lacked the enthusiasm necessary to excel.
95
Maybe you went into the wrong career to begin with and never stopped to question why.
96
Maybe this is actually that opportunity to realize
97
that you have never properly assessed what you're great at and what you're not great at.
98
Maybe, just maybe, this is the best thing that has ever happened to you professionally.
99
And while it is technically about you, it's also not really about you.
100
It's about what you're best at and leveraging those skills to create the most enriching life possible.
101
So really quick, before we talk more about how it's not about you, let's talk about me.
102
This video is sponsored by Veyr.
103
Now, a lot of you guys have been commenting, asking me about my watches, And I'm very excited to announce that for the first time,
104
one of the watch brands that I wear has decided to sponsor a video.
105
And they were kind enough to send through a bunch of awesome watches for me to try on
106
and to show off to you guys.
107
So Veer is really interesting because it was started by two friends back in 2016
108
because they wanted one watch for surfing before work and also for work itself.
109
They didn't want to have to switch when they went from the ocean into the office.
110
And by 2018, they were assembling watches right here in the United States out of California, Arizona, and Alabama.
111
Now here is what actually sold me on wearing it.
112
The crown screw down so you twist it shut and you stop thinking about water.
113
It's water resistant and Veyr backs it with an actual waterproof warranty.
114
Now if it ever lets water in while sealed properly they fix it or replace it.
115
The crystal is sapphire.
116
It's the same scratch resistant glass that you see on watches five times the price.
117
So Veyr was cool enough to let me pick any watch from their entire collection
118
and I picked this one because of the really unique orange face.
119
You know it's on brand guys.
120
The whole book is bright orange
121
so I felt like I needed a bright orange watch to blind you guys with when I'm sitting here doing YouTube videos.
122
So check out Veer through the link in my description.
123
Go to www .veerwatches .com slash Mark Manson.
124
And if you buy a watch, you will get a free watch roll, which is normally worth $59.
125
It's super cool.
126
It's great for traveling.
127
Very nice.
128
But you can only get it if you buy a watch through my link in the description below.
129
Back to the video.
130
Then let's say your partner cheats on you.
131
Of everything on this list, this one probably feels the most about you.
132
You weren't enough.
133
You weren't hot enough.
134
You weren't fun enough.
135
You weren't present enough.
136
You weren't loving enough.
137
But the infidelity research points the other direction.
138
The best predictor of whether someone will cheat is whether they've cheated before.
139
A 2017 study that followed people across multiple relationships found
140
that the people who cheated in one relationship were three times more likely to cheat in the next one.
141
New partner, same result.
142
The common denominator is the person doing the cheating, not the person being cheated on.
143
Personality research finds the same pattern.
144
People who score high in narcissism, low in conscientiousness, and who get uncomfortable when intimacy gets real are the ones who end up straying.
145
They brought those traits into the relationship.
146
You didn't put them there.
147
So once again, it isn't really about you.
148
Or is it?
149
Because you did contribute to the relationship.
150
You chose to be with them.
151
You believed them when they told you that they were committed.
152
But here's the problem.
153
Infidelity isn't meaningfully connected to the quality of the partner or the relationship.
154
The psychologist Shirley Glass found that 56 % of men
155
and 34 % of women who'd had affairs described their marriages as happy or very happy.
156
They weren't fleeing a bad partner.
157
Esther Perel, who has spent decades counseling couples after affairs, says that people who stray are usually looking for different versions of themselves,
158
not a different partner.
159
The version who isn't a tired parent with a mortgage, or the version who feels 25 and full of energy again.
160
Sure, maybe there were problems.
161
Maybe you've drifted and let yourself go.
162
Maybe the sex has gone stale.
163
Every long relationship has problems.
164
But a problem in a relationship leaves you with a bunch of honest options.
165
You can bring it up and work on it.
166
You can go to therapy.
167
You can leave.
168
Cheating is the option that lets them get what they want without having the hard conversations, without doing any of the work.
169
Choosing it takes a specific type of cowardice, and that cowardice was in them long before you showed up,
170
and there was nothing you could have done to fix it.
171
Your partner was running from something inside of themselves, and you happened to live in the house and be with them when they ran.
172
Could you have done more?
173
Of course you could have.
174
Could things have been salvaged?
175
Yeah, probably.
176
But is it about you?
177
No. Honestly, it is about them.
178
Now, you might be saying this is getting a little bit ridiculous.
179
I mean, Mark, are you saying that nothing is about me?
180
Nothing is personal?
181
Isn't that just avoiding responsibility or my problems?
182
No, actually, you are responsible for everything in your life.
183
You are responsible for everything you do.
184
And so in that sense, everything that you do is about you.
185
But similarly, everything everybody else does is primarily about them.
186
It's not personal towards you.
187
It's not about you.
188
That girl that never got back to you, it's about her.
189
It's not about you.
190
It's not personal.
191
That friend who ditched you, it's about them, not about you.
192
It's really not that personal.
193
The job you lost, it's about them, not about you.
194
The cheating spouse at the end of the day, even if you were a shitty partner, it was about them and the choices that they made.
195
They chose to handle it that way.
196
It's about them.
197
So why do we resist this idea?
198
Why do we keep telling ourselves that everything is actually about us?
199
I think we do this because we'd have to accept the fact
200
that nobody is thinking about us as much as we think they are.
201
Because believing that every slight aimed at you is about you requires a certain degree of self -importance
202
that I think underneath it all feels kind of good.
203
To take everything personally, you're assuming that somebody with their own job, their own family, their own credit card debt
204
and weird rash spent part of their day masterminding how to make you feel like shit, I mean, come on.
205
They didn't.
206
They don't really fucking care.
207
See, the twisted fucked up thing about taking everything personally is
208
that each grievance makes you the main character of the entire world.
209
If your friend skipped your birthday to hurt you, then you mattered enough to be someone worth hurting.
210
If a girl broke your heart because you said the wrong thing, then it means that your words matter enough to end a relationship over.
211
The truth is, she just wasn't that into you.
212
And being wronged feels much better than being irrelevant.
213
Psychologists who study people with chronic senses of victimhood find
214
that they ruminate on old slights and crave having their pain recognized by others.
215
The slight becomes almost like a little trophy that they can show and display to others.
216
It's proof that they count, that they matter.
217
The psychologist David Elkind calls it the imaginary audience, the conviction that everybody is watching and judging you at all times.
218
Kids have it, teenagers especially have it, and they agonize about it, but you're supposed to outgrow it.
219
But the truth is, plenty of adults never outgrow it, they just get better at hiding it.
220
When one unanswered text ruins your whole weekend, the 12 -year -old who got laughed at in the cafeteria
221
is still in there inside of you throwing a fucking pity parade, imagining that everything everyone else does leads back to you.
222
No matter how fucked up the situation, the reason for someone's behavior lives inside that person.
223
Their fears, their habits, their bad week, their dead phone.
224
Aaron Beck, the founder of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy,
225
had a name for a habit of assuming that you caused events that had little or nothing to do with you.
226
He called it personalization, and he classified it as a cognitive distortion.
227
Now, the fix that cognitive behavioral therapists use is very simple.
228
When something stings, you're supposed to come up with three explanations for it that don't involve you in any way.
229
They don't have to be true, they just need to be possible.
230
And when part of the mess is yours, you can own that part.
231
If you were a crappy partner, great, fix that for your next relationship.
232
If you were really bad at your job, then you should probably figure out why.
233
Now, all of this can sound a little bleak, like nobody's thinking about you that much,
234
or your friends aren't lying awake wondering how you're doing every day,
235
or the guests at your brother's wedding forgot your toast as soon as the conga line started.
236
But actually, flip it around.
237
Because if nobody is watching that closely, if nobody cares, nobody is grading you either.
238
Nobody is actually judging.
239
You can take the salsa class and be fucking terrible at it.
240
You can start a YouTube channel and have nobody watch it.
241
You can ask the dumb question in a meeting and actually learn something new.
242
You can wear the weird sweater that gets you strange looks on the train.
243
Nobody cares.
244
Nobody's going to remember.
245
The audience that you've been performing for your whole life is mostly empty seats.
246
And the few people
247
that are sitting there are probably too busy worrying about their own performance to notice the quality of yours.
248
So no, it isn't about you.
249
Which means you get to go be whoever you want to be.
250
So go be it.

- تتابع الصوامت — لا تضف حركة بينها: psychologist /ˌsaɪˈkɑl.ə.d͡ʒɪst/, priority /pɹaɪˈɒɹɪti/, fewer /ˈfjuː.ɚ/, judgment /ˈd͡ʒʌd͡ʒ.mənt/, slight /slaɪt/

ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
