Despite living in countries with abundant resources, many feel unhappy. This is attributed to comparison, where social media exacerbates feelings of inadequacy by constantly showcasing others who seem better off in some way.

The Paradox of Modern Happiness:

Constantly comparing oneself to others leads to unhappiness. Everyone has someone who is better in some aspect. Embracing uniqueness and being oneself is highlighted as the path to true contentment.

Comparison is the Thief of Joy

Gratitude as a Tool for Happiness

The concept that people are not depressed or anxious 100% of the time. By recognizing moments of happiness and connection, one can understand that negative states are not permanent.

Selective Depression and Anxiety

The distortion of reality through social media filters, both the literal ones that alter appearances and metaphorical ones that skew perceptions of life, is discussed. True happiness comes from not comparing oneself to others.

The Impact of Social Media and Filters

Setting meaningful goals that excite and motivate can lead to a happier life. It's not about the outcomes or material gains but about personal growth and the positive impact one can have on others.

The Role of Meaningful Goals

Overcome Depression & Anxiety - Motivational Video - World Mental Health Day

All Might stands as the epitome of heroism in "My Hero Academia," not merely because of his overwhelming power but because of his humanity. Unlike many invulnerable heroes, All Might's greatest battle is with his own mortality. His superhero form is a temporary facade that conceals a weakened state, the result of a life-threatening injury. This vulnerability makes him profoundly relatable—it shows that heroism isn't about invincibility but about the courage to stand up for what's right, even when you're at your weakest.

Beyond the Cape: The Human Vulnerability of All Might

All Might redefines the Superman archetype by introducing elements of vulnerability and relatability that Superman often lacks. Critics argue that Superman's near-perfection makes him less engaging, as there's little drama in invulnerability. In contrast, All Might's character is built on a foundation of sacrifice—his power comes at a significant personal cost, and his time as a hero is finite. This narrative choice adds depth to his character, making him a more compelling figure.

All Might: A New Take on the Superman Legacy

All Might's legacy is not just his heroic deeds but his role as a mentor to the next generation of heroes. His guidance to Izuku Midoriya (Deku) and other students at U.A. High School goes beyond teaching them how to harness their powers; he instills in them the values and principles needed to be true heroes. All Might understands that strength without compassion and integrity is meaningless. His mentorship emphasizes the importance of empathy, selflessness, and courage, ensuring that his ideals live on through his protégés.

The Mentorship of All Might: Shaping the Next Generation

The narrative of All Might explores the theme that heroism comes with a cost. His diminishing power and the physical pain he endures are testament to the sacrifices made in the pursuit of justice. All Might's struggle is a poignant reminder that heroes are not born from a desire for glory but from a willingness to pay a personal price for the greater good. His deteriorating condition, hidden behind a facade of strength, highlights the often unseen burdens heroes carry, making his character a deeply tragic yet inspiring figure.

The Cost of Heroism: All Might's Battle Within

All Might embodies the hero that society both deserves and needs—a beacon of hope and a symbol of resilience. In a world rife with challenges and adversity, All Might's unwavering commitment to justice, despite his vulnerabilities, inspires a sense of hope and determination. He teaches us that heroism is about facing our fears and standing strong in the face of adversity. All Might captures the essence of what it means to be a hero in the modern age: someone who, even when faced with their own limitations, inspires us to be our best selves.

Why All Might Is the Hero We Deserve and Need

All Might has always been my favorite superhero because of his selflessness and the lengths he goes to ensure the safety of those around him. The fact that he is injured and fighting his mortality is, quite frankly, inspiring!

What would the world be like if 80 percent of the population manifested superpowers called “Quirks” at age four? Heroes and villains would be battling it out everywhere! Being a hero would mean learning to use your power, but where would you go to study? The Hero Academy of course! But what would you do if you were one of the 20 percent who were born Quirkless? Middle school student Izuku Midoriya wants to be a hero more than anything, but he hasn’t got an ounce of power in him. With no chance of ever getting into the prestigious U.A. High School for budding heroes, his life is looking more and more like a dead end. Then an encounter with All Might, the greatest hero of them all, gives him a chance to change his destiny…

My Hero Academia, Vol. 1

Health Anxiety and Hypochondria are conditions characterized by an excessive worry about having a serious illness. Despite medical tests and reassurances from healthcare professionals, individuals with these conditions remain concerned about their health.This worry is not just about the general state of health but fixates on the belief that normal bodily sensations or minor symptoms are indicators of serious diseases. This can lead to significant distress and can interfere with everyday life.

Understanding Health Anxiety and Hypochondria

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Health Anxiety is specifically concerned with health and illness. Individuals with health anxiety obsess over bodily functions, minor anomalies, or symptoms, interpreting them as signs of serious medical conditions.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) involves a broader range of anxieties. People with GAD worry about a variety of issues, including health, but also finances, work, relationships, and other aspects of daily life. Physical symptoms of anxiety, such as restlessness or insomnia, are common in GAD, but the fear is not limited to health concerns.</li></ul>

Differences Between Health Anxiety and General Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

The persistence of health anxiety, despite reassurance from medical professionals, can be partly explained through a psychological mechanism similar to classical conditioning. For example, an individual might experience a benign physical sensation, like a heartbeat.If they associate that sensation with the fear of a heart attack, over time, just feeling their heartbeat can trigger significant anxiety about having a heart condition. This conditioning process means that the physical sensation becomes a conditioned stimulus, triggering a conditioned response (health anxiety).

The Psychological Mechanism Behind Health Anxiety

Individuals with health anxiety often engage in excessive research about health symptoms, a process that can exacerbate their fears. This is due to confirmation bias, where people tend to seek out information that confirms their beliefs, and ignore information that contradicts them.This selective information gathering reinforces their belief that their symptoms are indicative of serious illnesses, perpetuating the cycle of anxiety.

The Role of Research and Self-Diagnosis in Health Anxiety

The internet and social media can have a profound impact on health anxiety. Easy access to a vast amount of health information can lead to "cyberchondria" where individuals interpret any information they find as confirmation of having a serious disease. This can worsen health anxiety, as the abundance of information can overwhelm and lead to misinterpretation.

The Impact of Internet and Social Media

Managing health anxiety involves several strategies, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and challenge their anxiety-inducing thoughts and behaviors.Understanding the triggers of health anxiety, such as specific sensations or situations, and learning practical steps to manage anxiety, such as mindfulness and relaxation techniques, are also crucial. Reducing the time spent on researching symptoms online and setting boundaries around health-related information can also help manage health anxiety.

Strategies for Managing Health Anxiety

I think this could be a useful video for those who are suffering from anxiety and would like to better understand why that is the case and how to help themselves.

This video is long, but it’s packed full of information. Here is a breakdown. I answer the following questions:
What does hypochondria/health anxiety look like?
What’s the difference between hypochondria and generalized anxiety disorder?
How do you get hypochondria?
Why don’t pills work for hypochondria?
What does CBT for hypochondria-health anxiety look like?
What is a self-help version of CBT for hypochondria?

With hypochondriasis, you misinterpret body sensations and assume you have a serious disease, even after you’ve been told you don’t. You may believe that the doctor missed something. You may even believe the anxiety you have will turn into something more serious like dying in your sleep or having a heart attack.

In 2013, the new edition of the diagnostic and statistical manual 5th edition changed the name from hypochondriasis to somatic symptom disorder. Somatic means body. Therefore, it’s a disorder of being over focused on body symptoms and having an illness. People who have this problem, know they have it because they are in a lot of distress. 

Self-talk script to use when you are triggered by a body sensation.
I have been checked out by my doctor, my new body symptoms does not mean I really have a medical illness. I have anxiety and this is what I tend to think,. Anxiety makes me believe I have something I don’t. I am not more of a medical expert than the people who have seen and examined lots of sick people. I don’t know what sick people look like, I only know what I look like. I don’t have a point of comparison to know what the illness I’m concerned about really looks like. The internet will not give me a complete picture of what it really looks like to have [fill in the blank with the illness you’re worried about.

Generative A.I - We Aren’t Ready.

In 1972, Steve Jobs enrolled at Reed College but decided to drop out after just one semester due to the financial strain on his parents. However, he continued to audit classes that piqued his interest, one of which was a course on calligraphy. It was this class that introduced him to the beauty of typography, teaching him about varying typefaces and the delicate balance of spacing between letters—knowledge that seemed impractical at the time but would prove invaluable later.

The Unconventional Path: Steve Jobs and the Calligraphy Class that Shaped the Mac

Jobs famously credited this course for the revolutionary typography of the first Macintosh computer. In an era when personal computers were largely utilitarian, the Mac stood out not just for its graphical user interface but also for its beautiful typography. Jobs' insistence on incorporating a wide range of fonts, including serif and sans-serif types with adjustable spacing, directly stemmed from his appreciation for calligraphy. This attention to detail in typography was unprecedented in personal computing and set a new standard for design elegance in technology.

Impact on the Macintosh

Despite his monumental success with Apple, Jobs faced a shocking turn of events when he was ousted from the company he co-founded. This period could have been the end of his career in technology; instead, it marked the beginning of a transformative phase in his life. It was his unwavering passion for his work and deep love for what he did that fueled his comeback.

Resilience in the Face of Adversity: The Steve Jobs Journey of Passion and Perseverance

During this tumultuous time, Jobs didn't just find solace in his work; he also found love, marrying Laurene Powell. His personal life flourished alongside his professional endeavors as he went on to purchase the computer graphics division of Lucasfilm, which would become Pixar Animation Studios. Pixar revolutionized animation and storytelling, culminating in the creation of "Toy Story," the first ever feature-length computer-animated film.Simultaneously, Jobs founded NeXT, a computer platform development company specializing in higher education and business markets.

Finding Love and Building New Ventures:

Steve Jobs famously highlighted the finite nature of life as a pivotal realization that should guide our decisions and ambitions. Understanding that our time here is limited compels us to focus on what genuinely matters—pursuing paths that align with our deepest passions rather than succumbing to societal pressures or the expectations of others.

The Finite Nature of Life and Personal Fulfillment

The act of questioning our actions and choices is more than just a momentary pause; it's an essential practice for ensuring that our lives reflect our true interests and values. If we find ourselves repeatedly questioning our pursuits, it might indicate a deeper misalignment between our actions and our authentic selves. This realization is not a signal of failure but an opportunity to redirect our lives toward more fulfilling endeavors.

The Significance of Asking "Why?":

I believe that Steve Jobs has a very interesting story because you might have thought that such a successful man would have had a perfect backstory, but we learn that it's quite the opposite!

Steve Jobs delivers an inspirational speech. Listen to the end for the most life changing quote of all-time. Don't let anyone ever tell you that you cannot achieve your dreams.

You will be inspired and motivated to go out there and achieve your goals. I hope you all enjoy this motivational video. :)

Speaker: Steve Jobs
Steven Paul Jobs was an American business magnate, industrial designer, investor, and media proprietor. He was the chairman, chief executive officer (CEO), and co-founder of Apple Inc.; the chairman and majority shareholder of Pixar; a member of The Walt Disney Company's board of directors following its acquisition of Pixar; and the founder, chairman, and CEO of NeXT. Jobs is widely recognized as a pioneer of the personal computer revolution of the 1970s and 1980s, along with his early business partner and fellow Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak.

One of the Greatest Speeches Ever | Steve Jobs

The journey to embracing self-love is fraught with obstacles, particularly with the pervasive influence of social media. Daily interactions with these platforms expose us to a barrage of curated images and lifestyles, leading to unrealistic comparisons and self-doubt. This phenomenon challenges our ability to appreciate our unique qualities and achievements, underscoring the importance of recognizing and valuing our intrinsic worth independent of external validations.

Self-Love in the Shadow of Social Media

Measuring our self-worth by achievements can be a double-edged sword, leading to a fragile sense of self-esteem that fluctuates with our successes and failures. This approach often ignites a relentless pursuit of success, fostering a cycle of stress and dissatisfaction. Acknowledging our intrinsic value beyond accomplishments is crucial for cultivating a stable and healthy self-image, promoting well-being and resilience in the face of life's inevitable ups and downs

The Pitfalls of Achievement-Based Self-Esteem

Many individuals fall into the trap of equating their income with their self-worth, a mindset that can erode self-esteem and overall happiness. This perspective fosters a conditional sense of value, dependent on financial success, and overlooks the richness of character, relationships, and personal growth. Recognizing the distinction between financial status and intrinsic worth is essential for nurturing a healthier, more fulfilling sense of self.

Wealth and Worth: Disentangling Income from Self-Esteem

Linking self-worth to educational attainment overlooks the significant role of socio-economic factors, such as parental support and financial stability, in accessing education. This view neglects the essence of individual value that transcends academic achievements and disregards the diverse paths to success and fulfillment. Acknowledging and appreciating the varying opportunities and challenges each person faces encourages a more inclusive and compassionate understanding of self-worth.

Education and Self-Worth: Beyond the Privilege of Opportunity

Comparing our achievements to others' successes without knowing their unique circumstances sets us on a path of unfair self-judgment and dissatisfaction. This habit overlooks the diverse challenges and advantages each person faces, creating a distorted view of success. Recognizing the complexity behind every achievement encourages a healthier, more self-compassionate perspective on our own journeys.

The Illusion of Comparison: Understanding Behind Achievements

Feeling disappointed with our appearance can severely impact our mental health, leading to negative self-perception and unhappiness. Adopting a mindset focused on progressive improvement and self-compassion is vital. Appreciating our bodies for what they can do, rather than solely how they look, fosters a positive self-image and promotes a journey towards well-being that celebrates every step of progress.

Embracing Imperfection: The Path to a Healthier Self-Image

The belief that we must amass a large circle of friends to feel valued and fulfilled is a common misconception. True contentment lies in cultivating meaningful, deep connections rather than striving for a vast network of acquaintances. Prioritizing quality relationships over quantity encourages genuine bonds that offer support and enrichment, enhancing our sense of belonging and well-being.

Quality Over Quantity: Rethinking Friendship Goals

I believe that we all deserve to feel worthy. If you’ve been feeling a bit down and unworthy, do yourself a favor and watch this video!

Loving yourself may sound simple, but we all know how hard it is. It can be a long journey to accepting this, but it’s worth it. As hard as it may be, you should never give up on loving yourself because you deserve it. So here are a few things that do not determine your self-worth.

Watch This If You're Struggling With Your Self-Worth

Balance training is not merely an exercise routine; it's a crucial component for both physical and mental wellness. When you work on your balance, you're not just improving your ability to stand on one leg or perform complex movements; you're also enhancing your body's proprioception. This is your body's ability to perceive its position and movement in space, which is vital for everyday activities and preventing falls.

Equilibrium Unlocked: The Power of Balance Training

Stability training is foundational to both physical and mental health. Physically, it strengthens core muscles, improves posture, and reduces the risk of injury by teaching the body how to correctly manage and distribute weight during movement and at rest.On a mental level, stability exercises require concentration, which can help to clear the mind and reduce stress. The act of focusing on maintaining a stable posture can act as a form of meditation, improving mental resilience and reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Stability as the Foundation: Strengthening Body and Mind

Functional core strength is essential for more than just athletic performance; it's a key factor in daily life activities, from lifting groceries to maintaining good posture while sitting. Strengthening the core involves working the muscles around your trunk and pelvis, which are crucial for stability and balance. Physiologically, a strong core reduces back pain, improves posture, and prevents injuries. Psychologically, engaging in core-focused exercises has been linked to improved self-esteem and stress reduction.

Core Values: Building Functional Strength and Mental Fortitude

The relationship between mental health and physical fitness is deeply interconnected. Regular physical activity is a powerful mood booster, known to decrease symptoms of depression and anxiety. Exercises, especially those emphasizing balance, stability, and core strength, require mental focus and discipline, which help to distract from daily worries and reduce stress. Physical activity also promotes the release of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which play an essential role in regulating mood.

Mind Over Muscles: Mental Health's Role in Physical Fitness

The concept of physical and mental wellness being intertwined is gaining recognition. Exercises that focus on balance, stability, and core strength are particularly beneficial for this holistic health approach. These types of physical activities not only strengthen the body and prevent physical health issues but also have a profound impact on mental health. The focus required for these exercises improves cognitive function and encourages a state of mindfulness, which can reduce feelings of anxiety and depression.

Strength in Mindfulness: Embracing Fitness with Purpose

Fasting plays a pivotal role in gut health by giving the digestive system a much-needed break, allowing for the repair and regeneration of the gut lining. This pause in digestion can lead to improved nutrient absorption, a balanced gut microbiome, and a reduction in inflammatory gut issues, contributing to overall digestive wellness.

Renewing the Gut: The Healing Powers of Fasting

Regular fasting contributes to significant cardiovascular benefits, including lower blood pressure, decreased cholesterol levels, and reduced inflammation. These changes help in mitigating the risk factors associated with heart disease, promoting a healthier heart and circulatory system.

Heart Health Boost: Fasting's Cardiovascular Benefits

Fasting initiates cellular processes that not only help in breaking down and eliminating damaged cells but also play a crucial role in protecting and maintaining muscle protein. Activation of certain genes during fasting periods ensures muscle integrity and function, countering the misconception that fasting leads to muscle loss.

Preserving Strength: How Fasting Protects Muscle Protein

Emerging research suggests that fasting can lower the risk of developing certain types of cancer. By reducing insulin resistance and inflammation, fasting creates a less favorable environment for cancer cells to grow and proliferate. Additionally, it may enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy by making cancer cells more susceptible to treatment

Fasting and Cancer Risk: A Preventive Approach

Fasting can lead to better skin quality by promoting detoxification and reducing inflammation, which are key contributors to acne and other skin conditions. The autophagy process triggered by fasting helps in clearing out damaged cells, resulting in clearer, more vibrant skin.

Glowing from Within: Fasting for Enhanced Skin Quality

Successful fasting requires more than just determination; it requires strategy. Starting with shorter fasts, staying hydrated, understanding when to break a fast, and listening to your body are crucial steps. Incorporating nutrient-rich foods during eating periods ensures that your body receives the essential vitamins and minerals it needs, making the fasting process both effective and sustainable.

In this video, we’re going to talk about what happens on the inside of your body when you’re fasting. 

There are a lot of beneficial effects of fasting on the body. Over a long period of time, the human body has developed and adapted to starvation. However, our bodies have not adapted to frequent eating. 

What happens when we fast?

Effects of fasting after 12 hours—There is a spike in growth hormone.

Growth hormone is involved with:
 • Anti-aging 
 • Fat burning 
 • Healing joints
 • Protein synthesis 

Effects of fasting after 18 hours—You develop autophagy.

Autophagy is involved with:
 • Recycling old and damaged proteins as well as microbes
 • Decreased amyloid plaquing 

Effects of fasting after 24 hours—You really start to deplete your glycogen reserve and run on ketones. 

Benefits of fasting after 24 hours:
 • Decreased hunger
 • Decreased cravings 
 • Increased antioxidant reserve
 • Increased oxygen 
 • Better fuel efficiency 
 • Decreased inflammation 
 • Gut healing 
 • Improved cardiovascular function 
 • Improved cognitive function 

Effects of fasting after 48 hours:
 • Stimulate stem cells
 • Decreased risk of cancer/tumors 
 • Make more mitochondria 

Effects of fasting after 72 hours—Do periodically 
 • More stimulation of stem cells 
 • Better immune function

How to get these incredible effects of fasting:

 • Do intermittent fasting on a regular basis
 • A good average pattern of intermittent fasting is doing 18 hours of fasting with a 6 hour eating window
 • Do periodic prolonged fasting to achieve additional fasting benefits 
 • Take minerals during fasting (water along with nutrients ) 
 • Exercise in the mornings 
 • You may have increased LDL (This may not be something to worry about)

The Truth About Fasting: What Really Happens to Your Body?

Intelligence is a complex trait that encompasses much more than the cognitive abilities measured by an IQ test. Emotional intelligence, the ability to understand and manage one's own emotions, as well as the emotions of others, is crucial for personal and professional success.Social intelligence enables us to navigate social complexities and build meaningful relationships, while creative intelligence allows us to solve novel problems and produce innovative ideas. True intelligence is the integration of these diverse abilities, shaping how we interact with the world and tackle challenges.

Defining Intelligence: More Than Just IQ

Intelligence has deep evolutionary roots and is thought to have conferred significant survival advantages. From the problem-solving skills of primates to the complex social structures of cetaceans and the use of tools by birds, intelligence is a trait observed throughout the animal kingdom. Understanding its origins helps us appreciate the diverse manifestations of cognition and the evolutionary pressures that have shaped intelligent behavior over millennia.

The Origins of Intelligence: Tracing the Cognitive Lineage

The development of intelligence is influenced by an intricate balance of genetic and environmental factors. Twin studies and research into heritability suggest that while certain aspects of intelligence, such as processing speed, have a strong genetic component, environmental factors such as education, nutrition, and social interactions play a significant role in shaping cognitive abilities. This dynamic interplay ensures that intelligence is not predetermined, but rather something that can be cultivated and enhanced throughout life

The Building Blocks of Intelligence: Nature vs. Nurture

Neuroscience has made great strides in identifying the brain structures associated with various cognitive functions that contribute to what we perceive as intelligence. The prefrontal cortex, responsible for complex planning, decision-making, and moderating social behavior, plays a significant role.Additionally, neural plasticity, the brain's ability to change and adapt in response to experience, is crucial for learning and intellectual growth. The interconnectedness and the efficiency of neural pathways are also indicative of higher intelligence.

Measuring the Mind: The Search for the Seat of Intelligence

A key feature of planning is the anticipation of future outcomes. This forward-thinking aspect of intelligence requires not only envisioning the desired end result but also any possible future scenarios that could occur as a result of taking certain action

Anticipating Future Outcomes

The diversity of the human race is a profound asset in addressing and solving a wide array of problems. This diversity, which encompasses variations in cultures, perspectives, skills, and ways of thinking, acts as a vast reservoir of ideas and solutions. Culturally diverse groups bring a range of viewpoints to the table, enabling more comprehensive analyses of issues and fostering innovative solutions that might not emerge from more homogenous groups

Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell

What Is Intelligence? Where Does it Begin?

"The bamboo that bends isstronger than the oakthat resists."

The meaning behind the quote is that feeling inferior is, in part, a choice. Others may attempt to disparage or demean us, but we have the power to refuse to accept this diminishment. By withholding our consent, we maintain our dignity and self-respect. This idea is empowering because it places the responsibility for our feelings of self-worth within us, rather than letting them be dictated by others. It's a call to assert one's own self-esteem and to reject any attempt by others to make us feel less than we are.

The Choice of Self-Worth

I believe there are many amazing quotes in this video, so for anyone seeking some daily motivation, this is quite promising.

A good quote can offer a lifetime of experience in a simple sentence or statement. They are lessons forged through the overcoming of obstacles and set backs that are passed on to others like a baton in a relay race. They say, "here's what I learned, now use it and go even further." 

This video contains various quotes I felt were wise. For me they had a weight, you can feel the impact as you read them. From a call to adventure by Pablo Picasso to a lesson in standing up for yourself by Elanor Roosevelt, I tried to pick quotes by people from a variety of fields that have different viewpoints.
