Quit Watching Podcasts And Motivational Videos

So you spent 3 hours watching Joe Rogan and then one hour watching David Goggins. Now you have lost four hours to eternity. And you are spiritually aware of the loss. You feel terrible, which causes you to feel low. Lower emotions lower your vigor. You are eventually back to watching something invigorating. This cycle is keeping the modern generation perpetually drained, exhausted, and uninspired.

I used the word drained on purpose. What does it mean? It means devoid of energy, devoid of life force. Most people today are walking around like lifeless zombies, their energies being fed on by content producers on internet. Yes, you are being used as energy sources by people who you are watching and feeding your energy. I can prove this to you. If you had a problem and reached to Joe Rogan, do you think he would help you out? How about David Goggins? How about Tony Robbins? They probably have teams to run their social media and infinitely promote them. Do they have anyone to listen to your problems? Probably not. Why then are you giving him your energy? Modern people are spending most of their time in asymmetric relationships. They are sending all their energy to people who are giving them nothing back, eventually turning into lifeless zombies.

Here’s my challenge to you. Open your social media apps and unfollow everyone who has never interacted with you. You lose nothing by dropping everyone who is doing nothing for you. Disconnect with everyone who you know will not help you in times of trouble. Do this for 60 days. I guarantee you will start to gain your life force back.

Objection: I learn a lot from watching Joe Rogan

Refutation: You can learn a lot from talking to neighbors, spending time in nature, reading books, etc.

Objection: I have issues. YouTube videos are helpful.

Refutation: no, they are not. If they were, you would have already solved all your problems. Most content on the internet is simply blanket advice. If you need help, seek experts in your community who will listen to your specific problems and circumstances, and provide you solutions accordingly. Most advice on the internet is completely bogus. You can’t set an alarm for 4am when are not even asleep by 4.

Get off the internet. Get your life back. Fall in love with life again. There is so much to be seen, experienced, and enjoyed on Earth. Quit giving your life force away to Netflix, YouTube, and social media. Quit being an energy source -- a dry cell -- for people who are doing noting for you.

Sincerely yours,

The Legendary Philosopher
