How does one accept oneself if they're not successful yet?

And how do you accept who you are in the moment, even if you're struggling right now?

The thing is, it's not success that's so important in this world, to me at least.

The feeling that I think we should aim for is a feeling of fulfillment, such as I had dreams when I was a child,

things I wanted to accomplish, things I believe I am capable of accomplishing, And I haven't given up on that.

And I'm still struggling to reach some of those goals.

And I'm on my way.

When you're in your 20s, it's easier to have that belief because there's still time and this is the time ahead of you.

And even if you've made some mistakes or had some bad jobs, you can still hope for that.

It gets harder and harder as you get into your 30s

and your 40s to believe that when you have followed the wrong paths in life and you have a sense of, God, things aren't going right.

I'm not gonna have the success that I wanted.

I know personally I was 37, 38 before I got a chance to write the 48 Laws of Power, which is very late in life.

And I got very depressed by that.

But I never gave up on myself.

So the thing that you want is you don't wanna give up on your dreams, on your hopes for the future,

because that will age you very quickly and that will have cascading effects on your health, both mentally and physically.

Now if you're in your 60s and you're at that point, it's a little harder, but there's still things you can do.

There's still things you can accomplish.

You've had incredible experiences.

Perhaps you've raised some children.

Perhaps you've had some adventures.

Maybe you could write a book.

Maybe you could mentor people and teach people.

But you want to have a feeling like you're aiming towards something

that your life has a purpose and a goal and a meaning to it.

There's a very great book that many people have recommended and I've recommended called Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl.

And basically, he was put in a concentration camp, I believe Auschwitz, the worst circumstances any human being can ever imagine.

And he emerged from that as a psychotherapist with a form of therapy called logotherapy.

And he noticed

that the people who survived the most horrible circumstances a human

being could ever be put into were those who had some reason to stay alive, some project they wanted to do, something that they wanted to accomplish,

They wanted to stay alive for their family that were still not in a camp.

They wanted to stay alive because they knew they had some great discovery that they were, or a book that they were going to write.

And they had a purpose and a goal and a feeling of meaning, even within all the suffering.

So if you're struggling and you're suffering, you can't give up.

You can't just resign yourself to it.

You can't just say, ah, that's just my life.

I've just got to accept it.

No, you've got to have some hope.

You've got to have a goal.

You have to feel like there is some purpose to what I'm going through

and I'm going to figure it out and I'm going to aim for it.

I'm going to have a goal.

I'm going to have a purpose.

And that will give you energy

and that will get you out of any rut that you're in

because a lot of the ruts and the feelings of inadequacy are created by the fact that you're not doing something.

You're not active.

You're not tempting things.

At some point in life, you're just struggling too much and things don't look very good.

How do you accept that?

You have to accept the fact that being alive is like this insane privilege.

And you are alive.

And you are breathing.

And there are people in this world who are doing worse than you are.

I have moments where I feel very almost self-pity for my stroke.

But then I think of all the people around the world who have it so much worse than I do.

You know, I have a house.

I have a comfortable living.

I can't feel sorry for myself.

So think of the people who have it much worse than you do.

That there is something beautiful about your life, about being alive and kind of returning to some of the simple pleasures.

One of the simplest pleasures that anyone can have is either with their children or for me,

with pets and animals and cats and dogs and just being around them

and just observing how weird and strange they are and to be living with another species in your house.

Every day I look at my cat who's right there on the floor next to us

and I'm just amazed that I get the privilege of spending time with this animal.

So finding these kind of simple things that you still have can help you in no matter how horrible your circumstances are.

So those would be kind of the advice I would give to people on that.

I remember law, I think it's law 18, I'm just having a look at it.

Isolation.

Do not build fortresses to protect yourself.

Isolation is dangerous.

Solitude is not a defense because it cuts you off from valuable information, allies, and opportunities.

There's a difference, isn't there, between being lonely and being alone?

Because being alone is one thing, but the state of loneliness feels like it's a slightly different proposition.

Well, it's the difference between you feel very unhappy that you're not connecting to other people.

We're a social animal, right?

And you feel like people don't like you, they don't respect you, that you can't interact with them on a level that's meaningful.

Whereas the feeling of being alone for me, wow, I don't have to be around ugly, idiotic people.

I can just be by myself.

I can read a good book.

I don't have to interact with people whose ideas I don't like.

I can just be myself and be as weird as I want.

Wow, what a relief.

I'm so happy being alone.

Now, I'm not like that all the time.

I would be terrible.

But sometimes I do feel that way.

And that's the difference.

And that's a good thing.

I remember once I was on an airplane, and I saw a young woman who was by herself.

And I could sense that it was driving her crazy and she had to use her phone to never feel alone, right?

Even in the middle, when we're flying over the ocean, she had to, like, somehow connect onto the internet and be sending emails and texts and anything.

And I got this kind of desperation in her, this intuition, this feeling, that being alone was just horrifying for her.

You know, and I think that's not a good thing.

I think it's a terrible thing.

So, yes, isolation is bad.

100

You need to be net.

101

You're a social animal.

102

You're meant to be around other people.

103

But if you can't be alone, you can't ever figure out what makes you different and what makes you unique.

104

So you have to be able to play both sides of the game.

105

To listen to that voice inside, to turn inwards.

106

It is hard to turn inwards when you never have moments of solitude, I guess.

107

When you were, you said you were suicidal in your earlier years.

108

Yeah.

109

What lifted you out of that state?

110

Well, I had a girlfriend who was very understanding, who helped me a lot, so I wasn't completely alone.

111

And then a little tiny voice inside of me was saying, you are, you have interesting thoughts.

112

You're a strange person, Robert.

113

I've always been strange.

114

I never was like other people, even in high school.

115

I was always something off about me, which could be made me lonely, which could make be a problem.

116

But I kept saying, there's something different and off about you, right?

117

And you have skills as a writer.

118

It's going to happen someday.

119

Don't give up, don't give up, don't give up.

120

Keep trying, right?

121

And so finally, I'm 35, 36 years old.

122

I was in Italy at the lowest point of my life.

123

And then I met this man there who was a book packager, Joost Elfers.

124

And he asked me if I I had an idea for a book.

125

And suddenly, just, I almost get emotional just thinking about it.

126

Everything just shifted inside of me.

127

It's like, yeah, I could write a nonfiction book.

128

And I just improvised what would turn into the 48 Laws of Power.

129

He got so excited, he said, I will pay you to write the, the, the, the, I forget what the word is,

130

to sell it, you know, and then I'll pay you to live while you write it.

131

And so suddenly it went from darkness to light because I had a purpose.

132

and all of my misery, you know, I could take all of the bad bosses I had,

133

all of the horrible psychotic bosses who were so stupid and so political and so manipulative, and I could go, wow,

134

I've got all this material to write the 48 Laws of Power.

135

All my worst experiences can go into this book.

136

It all has purpose for it.

137

I'm not saying that's going to happen to everybody, But I was literally at that moment before it happened, pretty much near rock bottom.

138

And I asked my wife, what would have happened if this didn't turn out?

139

Would I have committed suicide?

140

Would I, if I'd gone the same path and gotten into,

141

done some hack job, I'd probably be incredibly overweight and alcoholic and I might have already died of a heart attack?

142

Or maybe I would have found my way to something else, but it was a really, really low point in my life.

143

Purpose.

144

Yeah.

145

It's crazy how it can lift you out of darkness, it can turn the lights on.

146

Yeah.

147

It's just so unbelievably hard to find for so many people.

148

I mean, you're not going to find it in your bedroom necessarily, sat there thinking.

149

But you know, opportunities come.

150

You just have to be ready for them.

151

So I had this opportunity that came to me.

152

And you might say, well that's lucky, that's never going to happen to me.

153

But it will happen to you.

154

You're just not ready for it.

155

You're just not recognizing it.

156

Some person will cross your path that can lift you out of what you're doing, who can connect you, but you're not paying attention.

157

You're not ready for it.

158

You don't think you deserve it.

159

So there is opportunity every day of the week.

160

It's around you is what I'm trying to say.

161

There's so many studies, and there was one on TV by, I think it was Darren Brown, I think it was Darren Brown,

162

the illusionist, that show certain types of people are pessimistic towards opportunity.

163

And when you do studies where you, and there's one particular study where they have a newspaper

164

and they give it to one group of people who I think are pessimists and one group of people that are optimists,

165

and the researchers say, when you find the 100-pound voucher or $100 voucher, just come back to us.

166

And what happens is they scroll through the newspaper

167

and the pessimists never find it but on the first page of the newspaper, it says, stop, go to the researchers now, you've won $100.

168

The optimists find it.

169

And Darren Brown did a similar thing, the illusionist, in the street where he put, I think it was like a 50 pound or $100 note in

170

the middle of the street as they were walking down the street.

171

And the optimists find it, they see it, but the pessimists just walk right past it.

172

I think it was a winning scratch card potentially.

173

And that really opened my mind to like my state, my mental state, my psychology is determining whether I see these opportunities Yeah.

174

Or totally miss them.

175

And then it's almost a standward spiral because then I'll think, God, I'm such an unlucky person.

176

Right.

177

Without realizing that I'm playing a really important role in creating my own fortune or misfortune.

178

Right.

179

Yeah, I have a chapter in The Loss of Human Nature about the nature of your attitude creates your circumstances, which is sort of the same thing you're saying,

180

which is there are two kinds of attitudes that I talk about.

181

One is an attitude that's closing, that's constrictive, that's narrow, and there's one that's expansive and open.

182

You could call that pessimistic and optimistic.

183

But the closed attitude is you're only seeing life through this narrow little spectrum where everything is bad,

184

people don't like you, there's hostility all around you.

185

And what that means is you're not seeing reality, you're creating reality, you're creating that reality.

186

You're seeing it and that's what happens to you.

187

The expansive attitude is, life is amazing.

188

All these incredible things are possible.

189

I have hope.

190

Any moment there could be an opportunity.

191

And that's not reality either.

192

But you're gonna create that reality by feeling that way and taking, seizing an opportunity, the smallest crumb of an opportunity,

193

you're gonna create those good circumstances.

194

So by your attitude, you create the bad things that happen to you in life.

195

Decide what is truly important to pursue, okay?

196

It's kind of a vague question because what are you pursuing?

197

I mean, in your days off, when you're in your leisure time, it probably means like your career or what's important to you or what matters.

198

I'm gonna try and look at it from that angle because I can't tell you what to pursue in your daily life, what gives you pleasure.

199

But I do know this, we humans don't operate by instinct.

200

We operate by thinking, by rationality, by our willpower.

201

So we're not directed.

202

So we don't wake up in the morning like an animal might that has its needs it's going to take care of.

203

It doesn't have to think, it just does what it does.

204

We have to think, we have to go, what am I going to do today?

205

You know, where am I going to go?

206

Who am I going to see?

207

I mean, if it's not in your work, or even if it's your work, how am I going to get to work?

208

What am I going to do?

209

And that kind of freedom can be overwhelming, right?

210

And it can actually be very frustrating and very paralyzing.

211

I know as an analogy, as someone who's slightly OCD, I have to admit, if I go to the market and there's like a thousand products I have to choose from, it drives me crazy.

212

I have to think too much.

213

I can't decide which one I like.

214

And so life is very difficult when you don't have any direction.

215

We don't have any filter telling you what matters, what's important and what's not important, because there's so many things to choose from out there in the world today, particularly now.

216

So the critical thing you want is to know the main, the most important thing that you're pursuing in life,

217

which in my books you'll know is I call your life's task, right?

218

You know deeply who you are, what excites you, what kind of career you want, the kind of things you want to study, the skills you want to develop, the business you want to create,

219

the book you want to write, the film you want to make, etc. Okay, you have an idea about that.

220

It's like an anchor in your life.

221

It's like giving you radar are.

222

So every time someone comes into your life with something, say, hey, come on, let's go do this, or let's go travel here, or let's try this.

223

Your mind goes, uh-uh, that's not important.

224

It is not related to the goals in my life that truly matter.

225

This is what matters to you, okay?

226

So you have to understand that life is very, very short.

227

It goes by so fast, you have no idea.

228

I can't believe that I'm in my 60s right now, because to me, I'm still in my 20s.

229

It just went like that.

230

It's going to happen to you.

231

You don't realize it's going to happen to you, okay?

232

So having a sense of what really matters, which is what you were meant to pursue in life, your destiny, your life's task,

233

and for that purpose, I urge you to read Mastery in the first chapter, Discover Your Life's Task.

234

Without that sense, you're going to be floundering.

235

You're going to be wandering.

236

You're not going to know what your priorities are, what really matters, what not to waste time on, okay?

237

Because we live in a culture with an infinite variety of distractions

238

and that's our danger that's really the danger you know you

239

get on the internet you click click click you're you're going here here here here all these different places right

240

and you're not focused you can waste your time on a

241

thousand different things it's destructive it's destroying your brain it's like sugar it's rotting out your system

242

because you're not able to focus you're not able to prioritize you don't understand what matters what's trivial what's banal

243

and what really matters and what really matters in life, I believe, is fulfilling your destiny, knowing what you were meant to create in this world and going in that direction,

244

which is your life's task.

245

When you figure that out, everything fits into place.

246

I know, I mean, I'm a bit of an extreme example.

247

I know I have a book to write, right?

248

And so, so many other things that could bother me and distract me, I just cut it out because it don't matter.

249

I have a sense of supreme priority and that's what knowing your life's task will give you.
