The second interview with Daniel Mackler. Here, we talk about the topic of relationships: one's template for relationships, friendship, romantic relationship, sex, boundaries, parent-child relationship, and much more!

Quite right. Low self-esteem fundamentally is an inaccurate evaluation of oneself (having false beliefs/propositions), and often the inability to evaluate oneself objectively (inability to gather and/or correctly evaluate the truth value of beliefs/propositions about yourself). Also, the term self-esteem may be used to refer to an overall picture of oneself, or in regard to a specific thing (for example, to an ability to climb trees, or being selfish). The more objectively correct one estimates oneself, the healthier one's self-esteem is. And the rational goal for a person who wants to be happy and fulfilled would be to have as overally correct picture of yourself as possible.

Thanks for your feedback, Tyler - good to know you find value in my work! Tony, yeah, adding annotations takes some time, but I though it's worth doing. P.S. Thank you, I put a lot of thought into what kind of logo I'd like, and a friend of mine helped me to design it

Hi Tony, thank you for your feedback. I edited the video description a little bit -- and I'll keep that in mind in the future. I would have added an embed version of the video, but I can't because it's on Dailymotion, not YouTube, so I can't. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers!

Darius replied to Darius's topic in Listener Projects
Hi Lians, thanks for the feedback -- I'm glad that you found some value in my video and that you're enjoying True Detective, too. Cheers! -

Hi fenetre, one of the best books on addiction I've read was "In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts" by Gabor Mate. If you're not sure, you can watch a couple of videos and see if that's what you're looking for.These two would be a good start: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZ-FAX4Pz8I Also, I find this essay to be valuable: http://wildtruth.net/the-root-cause-of-addiction/

I decided to experiment and record a slightly different type of video. Here I share some personal details and ideas on the topics of loneliness, inability to connect, healing, self-work, growth, connecting with yourself, and having meaningful relationships. http://dai.ly/x17zd4m

"LOVE" SONGS. An Analysis of "Love The Way You Lie" by Skylar Grey
Darius replied to Darius's topic in Listener Projects
Thank you for your feedback, Melissa! -
A very impromptu video: an analysis of Skylar Grey's song "Love The Way You Lie," that is a consummate example of Stockholm syndrome and a toxic repetition of unprocessed relationship patterns.
-
I don't know if any of you watch "Misfits," but I just made a video where I analyze Rudy, a character who displays the complexity and multiplicity of human personality.
-
Part one: are popular methods like various exposure and cognitive techniques, "just do it," "use your willpower," "ignore your fear," etc. sufficient when dealing with difficult problems?Part two: a more in-depth look at the incredible value of deep self-work and the enormous complexity of human problems.
