You are not your identity

[dianacouto]

This is true freedom, to not attach yourself to any labels or identities. To just be the divine experiencing this dream. True enlightenment.

Your example about joining your dream company, I did this mistake. I made it to my dream company, just to have someone above me treat me like I had no reason to be here and made me want to leave the company, for my mental health. I had made my job apart of my identity because I was proud of this achievement, it was hard to pass all the rounds of interviews, and that dream got crushed a few months later and I felt like I was a loser. And even now although I found another job, this experience still pains me, I feel like my career will be going only downhill. And I hate this feeling, so as you said, it's important to detach our identity from our job (or anything that can be taken away so easily). I've been trying to be less emotionally invested in my current job and instead focus more on hobbies that I had given up on, and my mental health is getting better.
It is hard to not want to make our job, or our romantic relationships our identity, because that is what most people tend to value and reduce you to, but in order to truly be happy we HAVE to value better things.

This is one of the better channels I’ve found on the tube.

Thanks for posting these.

This is one of the best advices anyone can get. The more you reflect, the more you'd realize that much of our self are choices, be it emotions, identities or problems. We give power to the elements of our lives. This is almost the same as the thing with Nihilism. As people realize that we are nothing and have no inherent identity, or that the world have no inherent meaning, they'd feel terrified and nihilistic because there's no purpose to live for anything anymore. However, you can also be on the other side. Since the world is a blank space, that means we can create our own meanings, we can create our own self, and modify our character with the values and identities that would make us happy and fulfilled, the possibilities are endless.

I rarely comment, but this is exception. You are the proper man. The way you think, speak and act is what an ideal man should be. Thank you deep from my heart for everything. Continue your work. All the best.

You don't seem like the type of person to care about looks but God made you an incredibly beautiful man.

[jonjeziorski]

Thank you for making this! The content of your speech was extremely rich.

Once we remove the external things that we identify with, this allows us to revert to our true selves, our innocent child-like nature with nothing to fear, no hatred or distrust, nothing but love and kindness towards others.

I just found your channel. I am so intrigued by the wisdom.

[coffee-syrup]

Thank you for sharing this with us. I love your channel, I feel very afortunate that I can be listening to your words right now.

[clairjunior]

I wholeheartedly agree with you. I never join any group or organization. I think doing so prevents freethinking and develops bias.
