Why My Life Is So Boring

"Everything in life is easier when you don't concern yourself with what other people are doing."

“Create a life that feels good on the inside, not one that just looks good on the outside.”

“do you pick the ugly tomatoes because you feel bad for them?” Yes, Lana. I actually do exercise this kind of decision making 😂

I think this video in some way related to a Disney film called "Soul". The movie basically telling us that the purpose of life is to enjoy little things around us but we end up with this twisted construct that we need to work hard, make a lot of money, and achieve higher in life. People always telling us to find our own purpose but really that is what makes us lose our own "spark" :) It such an amazing movie for people in their 20s and if you haven't watched it you should!

“Sometimes happiness looks like staying at home, minding your business, telling people NO, and doing you.” ✨

Society makes us think that the only way to “live your best life” is by skydiving, expensive vacations, or winning the lottery. It makes us feel like we never have enough, and we need those things to be happy. The real way to “live your best life” is by seeing the beauty in everyday moments. Only then do you see the magic of life.

I never NEVER comment on anything on the internet, but MY GOD, for the first time I feel normal !! I am Brazilian and I identify with this girl so much. The calm way of speaking, not shouting forcing spontaneity, the reflections ... I don't believe there were people like me, I wouldn't feel so strange if I met her before <3 I'm thrilled

“Do not ask your children to strive for extraordinary lives. Such striving may seem admirable, but it is the way of foolishness. Help them instead to find the wonder and the marvel of an ordinary life. Show them the joy of tasting tomatoes, apples and pears. Show them how to cry when pets and people die. Show them the infinite pleasure in the touch of a hand. And make the ordinary come alive for them. The extraordinary will take care of itself.” - William Martin

"Comparison is the thief of joy." - Th Roosevelt

Not many thought that their life was "boring" before social media. That was just life. We have stopped giving value to the mundane and simple human experiences, and just continue to seek the so-called "awesome experiences". Watching Yes Theory is great. But thinking that they are living an amazing life and you're just living a boring one is wrong.

I was at the airport one day. Everyone, literally, including kids were immersed in their phones, I was the only one, alone sitting on a bench doing nothing, calmly waiting for my flight's boarding. They were all looking at me as if I was abnormal. What do they know about me? Nothing. Infact, they need to realise that I'm not addicted to my phone, it's under my control. I'm not boring, or feel bored so easily, I THINK a LOT of good thoughts!

I just realized. Sometimes I watch movies and get a little sad because things start to change. I want to see how the character lives their normal life in their normal room. Sometimes I don’t even care about the climax. Maybe that’s why I enjoy your channel so much. It’s very calming. I don’t have to worry about extremes with you. The volume is low. You always have the same makeup and hair, the background stays the same and the topics are consistent. The way you talk is also calming. Thank you for encouraging me to think about this

i feel like we all care a little too much about what others think just to find out everyone only cares about their life

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all. - Oscar Wilde

'I don't broadcast every high and I don't hide every low. I'm trying to live, not trying to convince the world I have a life.' -Rob Hill Sr

This is so important and a lot of people don't realize it. I alternate between a slow-paced life and a lot of travel/'epicness' and I can definitely say that neither brings more or less joy. You may get an adrenaline rush, but believe it or not, the novelty wears off after awhile. True happiness and contentment only comes when you are present, grateful, and fully immersed in an experience. Whether it's skydiving or playing with your dog.

“Its not about living a SUCCESSFUL life, it’s about living a SATISFIED life”

I constantly feel like I’m not doing enough every day yet I don’t have the motivation to make the most out of each day, which then means I’m not able to live life to the fullest.

This is so true, 2020 really showed me how to love the ordinary. Suddenly a walk in the park and seeing the sun set became my most treasured memories

i just found your channel and I appreciate how much you trigger my train of thought. Lots of self reflecting during this video. Thank you for that.
