1
So the technology is making human beings dumber.
2
And that really frustrates me because human beings are capable of incredible things.
3
You are capable of incredible things.
4
And I'm genuinely worried that your time spent online consuming, whether it's digital consumption or vaping, smoking weed, using whatever substance you need to turn your brain off,
5
I'm worried that that's limiting you from being what you could be.
6
I think you're worried about that as well.
7
And that's why you're still watching this.
8
Today, I want to tell you that there is another option.
9
There's another way to live your life.
10
I have been working on it for the last three years, and I'm going to try to condense everything
11
that I've worked on into this one video so that you have a place to start, so that you have a way of living that doesn't make you want to escape all the time.
12
Let's talk about what the tech is doing to us.
13
And this might be familiar to you.
14
Either way, I want you to get a piece of paper.
15
I want you to get a pen, and I want you to engage with this video meaningfully.
16
Really try to stay with it.
17
Try to give your attention to this, not try to go anywhere else, not open another tab.
18
Let's try to have a conversation because this is the problem of our time.
19
We are the generation that is going to decide what happens to humanity's consciousness.
20
We are faced with unprecedented distraction, overwhelm, technology we're not psychologically prepared for.
21
We have no idea what the AI is going to be able to do in a few years.
22
We really don't.
23
We're not prepared for this.
24
We were given addictive tech at a young age before we knew how to handle ourselves, before we knew how to engage with the drug that was in our pockets.
25
And that has given us some real challenges.
26
A lot of us can't focus for more than a few minutes at a time.
27
A lot of us haven't read a book in months.
28
A lot of us don't know what to do with our precious time on this planet.
29
So we spend our days meaningless, aimless, just trying to distract ourselves from the fact that we don't have a map.
30
We don't have something to aim ourselves at.
31
That is a core human need.
32
We're distanced.
33
We're isolated from each other.
34
We spend our days in our rooms, just turning our brains off.
35
That is not what you were meant to do in this life.
36
You were meant for more and you're capable of more.
37
You just need something to aim at, and I'm going to help you get there.
38
I'm working on it myself.
39
I'm not perfect, but for the last three years, I have been on a mission to figure this out.
40
The solution is not to abandon the technology.
41
The cat's out of the bag.
42
It's going to keep developing.
43
You need to take responsibility for yourself.
44
Take responsibility for your time, your habits, what you're giving your attention to.
45
You need to find something better to live for.
46
We're going to do this together.
47
Human beings are meant to engage with deep stories, with difficult concepts.
48
We're meant to think and solve problems and throw our attention at something
49
that you can't figure out in a minute or in 90 seconds.
50
We're meant to sit in rooms and talk to one another about interesting ideas.
51
That is something that is being robbed from us because these companies are set up to addict us, essentially.
52
So we're not gonna talk about that specifically.
53
We're gonna talk about what to do.
54
I want you to get a paper and pen.
55
If you haven't yet, this is your second chance, grab it.
56
Come on, we're gonna do this.
57
We're you and me together.
58
This is it how we save ourselves from the dystopia is we talk to one another
59
and we stay on a video for a few minutes so
60
that we can let our brains like stay with an idea for more than 90 seconds.
61
Okay.
62
I'm really fired up right now because it frustrates me.
63
It really makes me angry to see people reduced to their worst selves.
64
It's something that happened to me.
65
I lost, I would say, years of creativity to distraction and it's taken me so much time to get back to it.
66
Now that I have that, I am all the more excited to share it with you because I think you have something like that too.
67
Okay.
68
I know this was like a really long intro.
69
Here's the first step.
70
You need to de-stimulate yourself.
71
You need to rest.
72
Your brain is full of stuff.
73
Okay.
74
Your body might be full of stuff as well, like junk food or whatever.
75
I don't know what your situation is, but right now, if you're feeling really overwhelmed and anxious, let's bring it down.
76
You have to give it time to process out of you.
77
And the cool thing about your body is that it is designed to do this.
78
So if you just sit and do nothing for a little while, for maybe a day or a few hours, your brain is going to reset itself.
79
What this means is it's time to stop looking at information.
80
It's time to stop taking in new videos and music and things just for a short while.
81
And you need to let yourself get bored again.
82
You need to get some sleep probably.
83
You need to drink some water.
84
You need to eat some low stimulation food
85
and let your body return to baseline so that you can start building from the ground up again,
86
so that you can reconnect to a spark of curiosity so that you can feel like a child.
87
When you were a small child, before the screens, before you were infected with cheap dopamine and all kinds of distractions,
88
you had a natural curiosity about you that made you move through the world with open eyes and like, oh, I want to...
89
You just kind of did what your soul wanted you to do.
90
And I know that's a little ooey gooey, that's not scientific, but I trust that you know the feeling I'm talking about.
91
You can find your way back to this feeling with enough time, and then you'll start to heal from all of the overstimulation.
92
You can get the excitement you're looking for off of your own supply.
93
You can get it yourself in a much more sustainable, healthy way.
94
First step is to de-stimulate, and then you need to have the courage to try things.
95
You need to listen to what your brain wants to try, and then you have to try it without any judgment.
96
What stops most people I see from trying new things is the expectation that it needs to be perfect, it needs to be presentable, it needs to be good,
97
and it absolutely prevents them from accessing a state of play.
98
So for example, you might be compelled by music, but you've spent, I mean, you've seen, you might have this idea in your head that you need to be like a successful musician, or the work has to be good,
99
or that you even have to share it for it to be worth it.
100
And And none of those things are true.
101
The only thing you're solving for now is finding a game that you can play that satisfies you on an intrinsic level.
102
Intrinsic motivation comes from you.
103
Extrinsic motivation is like, will the world like this?
104
Will the song perform?
105
Will I get money from it?
106
Will some external result happen because of this thing?
107
It's not that.
108
It comes into play later.
109
But in the beginning, you're looking for that intrinsic motivation.
110
Really sit with yourself for a moment and think about what you actually want to do.
111
And the cool thing is in most, in almost every case that I've seen, you know, like, you know what it is, you know what you would rather be doing.
112
You know what you're distracting yourself from.
113
It might not be this insane, fiery passion to go become a sculptor or to go build a tech startup.
114
Like, you know what I mean?
115
It might be like, yeah, I think I'd like to play with Legos.
116
You know, I think I want to go like that was, I had a lot of fun eight years old building this Lego architecture thing.
117
And that's something that I want to try.
118
And so you might do that.
119
Or it might be something a little bit more formed.
120
Like I want to go learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
121
And it might not be one thing, but in the beginning, you're just trying to scout out within yourself what that is.
122
And then you have to follow through on it.
123
And this is where we get into some of the more personal development stuff, which is the courage to start something, to face the discomfort of starting,
124
understanding that discomfort is normal.
125
Anytime you're starting something new, anytime that you're doing something more difficult than self-soothing and numbing,
126
it's going to involve some degree of difficulty, which is good.
127
What'll happen as you face that difficulty once, twice, three times, four times, more than that, is you'll start to crave it.
128
This is super important to understand because a lot of People think
129
that the solution to their problems is to just build this unbreakable discipline
130
and become a monk and to face pain and discomfort and grind every second they're alive for the rest of their life.
131
No, that's really not what it is.
132
Yes, there's challenge.
133
Yes, there's facing discomfort.
134
But your body and your brain starts to enjoy that.
135
You start to enjoy the challenge of the game.
136
And then you almost become addicted to that.
137
That's what I was just talking about, where the craft or the practice you give yourself to becomes the drug.
138
It's not a bad kind of drug that hurts you.
139
It's stimulating in a healthy way.
140
And I point this out because I want to encourage you that this process is going to be fun.
141
okay you don't need to suffer uh you don't need to only suffer to get to a better place in life
142
yes there's pain and challenge but it's not going to be miserable all the way
143
or it's not going to work if it's miserable all the way
144
if you can't play this game every day of your life
145
you will you will give up at a certain point you will um turn back to the thing
146
that gives you reliable quick instant guaranteed comfort
147
which is only going to keep you in the same place
148
and it will trap you in being a lower version of yourself for the rest of your life.
149
If this happens to humanity, we will lose.
150
We will lose the battle.
151
So we cannot have that happen.
152
If you're still with me on this video, number one, thank you.
153
Number two, you are literally on the front lines of humanity's consciousness.
154
We're in it together.
155
This is it, right?
156
It's like we are fighting to become the best.
157
We are fighting to become ourselves.
158
We are trying to integrate all of the pieces of our psyche and our soul, and we are trying to bring to life that which we're meant to do.
159
And by doing that, you saved the world, period, point blank.
160
You literally saved the world.
161
You can't change 100,000 people.
162
You can't change a million people, but you can change yourself.
163
And if you can do that, if you can have the courage to do that on a daily basis in all of the everyday, mundane, unsexy things, but just the courage to get out of bed at the time you said you would get up
164
and to go on a morning walk and then train your body to try to build strength, to sit, at the page to try to get your ideas out.
165
If you can do that every day, if you can face the monotony of that, right, and the repetition, if you can learn to fall in love with the monotony of difficult,
166
meaningful work, you will save yourself from the onslaught of distraction and cheap dopamine and downgrading technology that we are up against.
167
Make no mistake, I mean, our current reality as human beings could be called dystopian.
168
I don't think that's a crazy thing to say anymore.
169
This is our test.
170
The cool thing is though, our war, we don't have to go storm the beaches of Normandy.
171
Thank God, that's a good thing.
172
What we do get to do is fight in the war of art, which is a great book by Steven Pressfield.
173
Highly recommend.
174
You should check it out.
175
It will change your life.
176
I changed mine.
177
This is the war of art.
178
So by engaging in your creative spark, the thing that you, the unique human on the other side of this thing can bring to the world, you will save the world and you'll save yourself.
179
So get bored, de-stimulate yourself, get some rest, get some sleep, drink some water, eat some real food, wake up in the morning and then ease yourself into curiosity again.
180
Give yourself some time to do this.
181
It might take a day or a week or a month of trying stuff.
182
And then once you find something that excites you, you're going to want to give much more time and attention to it.
183
This is exactly what happened with me in short stories.
184
It's the very human desire to share art with people, like the impulse that makes us tell stories around the campfire.
185
You know, that's what I get to experience at scale.
186
And that is a much healthier way to use the internet than trying to numb myself
187
or trying to get as much meaningless attention as possible.
188
You know what I mean?
189
Like just try to build a following for the sake of building a following.
190
No, we're not doing that.
191
We're making real human art to stand up against the onslaught of slop.
192
by giving yourself to this way of life, you will save the world and save yourself.
193
Okay, I've said that enough times at this point.
194
I think it resonates with you.
195
I hope it does.
196
I want to reiterate that you are capable of this.
197
It's going to look different for everyone.
198
Everyone's going to have different forms of contribution.
199
No one's asking you to go out and create an artistic masterpiece.
200
You might not even be an artist.
201
Your form of contribution might be different.
202
Yours might be leading other people in a company.
203
Yours might be, you know, being someone who's good with numbers, right?
204
And looking at, literally looking at spreadsheets and solving problems with empirical data.
205
I don't know.
206
Like people have a, the beautiful thing about humanity is our insane, infinite range of gifts.
207
And that's what I mean to say, that's what's being flattened that's what's being taken away from us
208
by all of the numbing addictive technology you have a responsibility to yourself
209
and the species to figure out what you're meant to do
210
and then to bring that to life um so if
211
if you're in a place in life where you're like oh
212
i don't have a purpose you know what i mean like
213
or i don't i don't know what i'm meant to do
214
with my time here it is right now you stumbled across the video on the internet
215
that tells you you need to figure out you need to look inside your body right now in your brain
216
and your soul and your spirit the things that I can't tell you how to find, but you know how to feel if you just stay quiet and look.
217
You need to look there and figure out what you're meant to do
218
and then start taking steps to bring that to life.
219
This has always been the game.
220
This has always been the human pursuit.
221
This has always been our calling, our meaning.
222
This is how we survived.
223
This is how we created civilization, how we created the technology that now threatens to enslave us.
224
This is how we're going to transcend through that technology and create a world that is better.
225
That's what we've always done, continuous driving.
226
And the cool part is it's going to be fun.
227
It involves making art.
228
It involves accessing your creativity.
229
It involves making something that's going to make someone else's day 1% better.
230
And that is so worth it.
231
That is so freaking worth it.
232
If it makes your day 1% better, it's worth it.
233
You were not meant to numb yourself.
234
You were not meant to become a dopamine zombie.
235
You are capable of a lot more.
236
It takes a little bit of courage to get there.
237
But I want you to get as fired up about this as I am.
238
I know this has been a little all over the place.
239
It's been very charged with emotion because I'm angry.
240
I'm angry.
241
I get frustrated when I see the lack of nuance in comment sections.
242
When I see people just commenting like brain rot memes in the comments
243
or like when people fail to see the nuance of a story and just are only looking for a quick,
244
immediate takeaway that is a one-size-fits-all sugar pill of a message.
245
It's like, no, that's not what art is about.
246
Art is about asking questions and having complicated conversations and not understanding right away.
247
It's about the beauty and ambiguity, right?
248
It's about not knowing.
249
It's about being okay with uncertainty, learning to live with that.
250
It's about enjoying the mystery of life rather than looking to solve it with a quick framework.
251
So that's a little bit of a separate topic.
252
Let me know if you want to hear more on that.
253
But I'm going to keep sharing these ideas because this is very much the war of our time.
254
And I want to share the field with you.
255
It involves you trying to take back your brain.
256
It involves you choosing to read books again.
257
Not the self-improvement books that you saw on Twitter.
258
Like you should like 10 books to read to become, to lock in.
259
Nope.
260
Go to the bookstore or the library and walk around until you see something
261
that the 10 year old version of you is like that.
262
Let's check that out.
263
Judge your book by its cover.
264
Look at the covers.
265
You're like, that's interesting.
266
It's not about becoming the smartest, most capable, richest, most successful person in the room.
267
It is about starting to acknowledge and indulge your own childlike curiosity.
268
Because then, once you stoke that fire,
269
you will replace your addiction to stimulation with a real involvement in creativity.
270
You'll start to see your light as a creative act on its own.
271
And then you'll be excited to live.
272
and that'll be worth it.
273
Cool.
274
That's all I got for you today.
275
I love you.
276
This is serious shit, but it's also going to be fun.
277
I hope that makes sense.
278
Look for the nuance.
279
I'll see you out there.
280
Have a great day.

- /z/ — इसे “ज” (/dʒ/) न बनाएँ: intrinsic /ɪnˈtɹɪn.zɪk/, miserable /ˈmɪz(ə)ɹəbəl/, extrinsic /ɛksˈtɹɪn.zɪk/, presentable /pɹəˈzɛntəbəl/, resonate /ˈɹɛz.əˌneɪt/
- शब्द की शुरुआत में s + व्यंजन — पहले “इ” न जोड़ें: stimulate /ˈstɪm.jəˌleɪt/, stimulation /stɪm.jʊˈleɪ.ʃən/, spark /ˈspɑɹk/, sculptor /ˈskʌlptɚ/, spreadsheet /ˈspɹɛd.ʃit/
इस वीडियो से अभ्यास कैसे करें
- पहले बिना बोले पूरा वीडियो एक बार सुनें और जो शब्द नहीं आते उन्हें लिख लें।
- 0.75× गति से शुरू करें, एक-एक वाक्य की शैडोइंग करें, और सहज लगने पर सामान्य गति पर लौटें।
- अपनी आवाज़ रिकॉर्ड करें और मूल से तुलना करें, ख़ासकर curiosity, intrinsic, creativity जैसे शब्दों पर ध्यान दें।
शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
