I have good news and bad news.

It's not about you.

Imagine that somebody across the street waves at you, so you wave back to them.

But then you realize that they're waving at the guy behind you and you're so embarrassed that you want to evaporate.

You're going to replay this in the shower for the next three years.

Whereas the person who waved at you has already forgotten it by the time that they reached their friend.

See, the guy behind you never noticed.

Nobody on that street noticed either.

They weren't thinking about you.

Because everybody on that street was thinking about themselves.

That girl that you like who left your text on red three hours ago,

you've reread your own message four times looking for what you said wrong.

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,

I'll answer that later.

And then her brain did what every brain does with every text.

She forgot about it.

You're one of the 47 notifications that she got today wedged between a target receipt

and a reminder to renew her car registration.

Basically, it's not about you.

Or let's say the worst -case scenario is actually true.

She's not into you.

She doesn't want to see you.

She doesn't want to talk to you.

You can take that as a judgment on your character and value as a human being,

or you can realize that she has a vast network of internal values and associations that she's made,

and for whatever reason, your unique combination of traits

and behaviors does not stimulate the correct sequence of stimuli in her hypothalamus to trigger a conscious experience of arousal.

You didn't do anything wrong.

She didn't do anything wrong it was just never going to happen anyway, and it was always outside of your control.

Basically, it's still not about you.

Or how about this?

Your friend bails on your birthday dinner an hour before.

He doesn't even bother to text you an apology.

You feel angry, offended, humiliated.

How could you care about someone who clearly doesn't give two shits back?

You feel bad about yourself, and you feel even worse about them.

And you realize you are not a priority for them.

That perhaps they aren't even capable of making another human being a priority at all.

That perhaps they see all relationships as highly transactional, unsentimental, and conditional on getting something of value out of another person.

You realize that you opted into this dynamic yourself, whether consciously or unconsciously, and

that your naive romantic notions of a burgeoning bromance were premature at best and completely delusional at worst.

You realize that this

so -called friend who has ghosted you on the most important day of the year was never actually a friend at all.

They were only imagined to be a friend, and that they are likely suffering from the loneliness

and isolation of their emotionally siloed life far more than you ever will from having one fewer people at a birthday dinner.

Basically, you realize it's not about you. Or this.

You give a toast at your brother's wedding, and your voice cracks like you're 13.

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.

Your face is flush with embarrassment, and you just want to curl up behind the DJ booth and die.

Yet research finds that fewer than a quarter of the people notice our most embarrassing moments.

The truth is, nobody fucking cares.

They are just happy to be at a wedding.

Happy the bride and groom are going to have a life together.

Happy that the dinner is four courses and all paid for.

Happy that they are going to get to dance to YMCA later

and hopefully make out with one of the bridesmaids behind the bar.

Happy that they are going to have an excuse to cancel all of their plans tomorrow when they have a hangover.

By the time you sit down, they have already forgotten that you even gave a speech.

Because it's not about you.

Or you find out your friends planned a weekend trip to Joshua Tree and you weren't in the group chat.

I mean, this one stings because it does feel like a verdict.

But group trips get planned by whoever happened to be at brunch that day.

Someone said, hey, we should go.

And four people said yes.

Someone made a chat and nobody stopped to audit the guest list.

And sure, maybe you weren't loved enough to be thought of in that moment.

Maybe they don't think of you as their bestest friend in the universe.

Maybe they don't pine for your presence in every free moment when you're not around.

Maybe they even find you to be a little bit needy, self -conscious, and exhausting.

Maybe one of the four guys actually secretly kind of doesn't like you.

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,

off on their own together.

Maybe they couldn't be bothered to invite other people, and they just didn't even think anything of it.

Basically, maybe it's not about you.

Or you get fired.

HR is in the room, there's a box for your stuff, and it feels like the most personal judgment imaginable.

They looked at you and they decided, this guy's not worth it.

But in truth, layoffs get decided in spreadsheets by people who have never heard your voice.

They don't recognize your name, and they certainly don't give a shit if you have a stellar personality or not.

A VP needed to cut 12 % of costs before the earnings call, and your salary was a sell in column F.

Congratulations, you get three months severance and a new LinkedIn profile picture.

But let's say it's even worse.

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,

and his manager is breathing down his neck telling him to run a tighter ship.

So guess what?

You're done.

You're gone.

And it hurts.

It hurts to realize that you weren't good enough at that role to make the cut.

But maybe, maybe it's not just a lost job.

Maybe it's a market signal.

Maybe you were not right for that role to begin with.

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.

Maybe you lacked the enthusiasm necessary to excel.

Maybe you went into the wrong career to begin with and never stopped to question why.

Maybe this is actually that opportunity to realize

that you have never properly assessed what you're great at and what you're not great at.

Maybe, just maybe, this is the best thing that has ever happened to you professionally.

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.

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 cheat, priority, judgment 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।
