so tell me when was the last time you
0:12
really truly enjoyed your own company
0:15
not out of necessity or just because you
0:18
were alone but because you wanted to be
0:22
today let's dig deep into the art of
0:25
being alone without feeling lonely
0:27
because there's a difference and once
0:30
once you know it it can change
0:32
everything let's face it Solitude has a
0:37
reputation problem being alone is often
0:40
seen as being sad or uncomfortable but
0:43
honestly it doesn't have to be when you
0:46
get comfortable with being alone it
0:48
becomes this incredible opportunity you
0:52
know to just be yourself and embrace
0:54
yourself fully without anybody expecting
0:58
anything of you you are not relying on
1:00
anyal to make you happy or fill your
1:03
time instead you get to discover what
1:06
really makes you tick without
1:09
distraction there's a huge difference
1:11
between being alone and feeling lonely
1:14
Solitude is just the physical state of
1:17
being by yourself loneliness on the
1:20
other hand is that inner feeling of
1:22
disconnection and the funny thing some
1:25
of us feel lonlier in a crowded room
1:28
than we ever do when we are on our own
1:31
so learning to be alone without letting
1:34
loneliness creep in that's the real art
1:38
that's the real art people all right so
1:41
first things first get to know yourself
1:45
okay just get to know yourself and I
1:47
don't mean in a self-care Sunday Kind of
1:50
a way though that's great too I mean
1:54
actually understanding your own mind
1:57
it's easy to go through life shaped uh
2:00
by what others want or just expect from
2:03
us and I'm talking about our parents our
2:06
friends our teachers at school you know
2:10
so many people that are surrounding us
2:13
but being alone gives you the the chance
2:16
to figure out what you truly enjoy and
2:18
need in your life for yourself ask
2:22
yourself when was the last time I
2:24
checked in with me what do I really want
2:27
outside of anyone else's in influence
2:30
when you when you're alone you don't
2:33
need anyone's um approval for anything
2:36
and that's liberating it allows you to
2:40
to to be unapologetically yourself
2:43
remember you don't need an audience to
2:45
validate your joy your plans or even
2:48
your pain you are enough just as you are
2:52
you you're so enough another key to
2:55
mastering this art is learning to find
2:58
joy in the smallest thing
3:01
like have you ever had one of those slow
3:06
mornings with coffee in hand and just
3:09
letting yourself be y That's So golden
3:12
guys like that's Top Notch that's stop
3:16
like you you're just there enjoying
3:20
living in the moment listening to your
3:23
own thoughts just that with no
3:27
one with with you not needing any want
3:30
to fill up that space to fill up that
3:32
time with a conversation but just you
3:36
just you the ordinary moments like
3:38
walking in the park reading listening to
3:41
your favorite music they suddenly become
3:44
so fulfilling instead of thinking about
3:47
what everyone else is doing imagine
3:49
savoring these these little pockets of
3:52
Joy just for you you don't have to share
3:55
them snap them or post them they are
3:58
yours
4:00
they are yours and sometimes that makes
4:02
them feel even better being all yours
4:05
with no one um having to see a glimpse
4:08
of who you are what you're doing on your
4:12
alone time you know so one of the
4:15
bravest ways to to find fulfillment on
4:19
your own is by challenging yourself with
4:21
something new it doesn't have to be a
4:23
big daunting project it could be as
4:26
simple as you know trying a new hobby
4:29
like pay painting cooking a
4:31
complicated receipt or even learning a
4:34
new
4:35
language I I know if you've heard this
4:38
before but guys learning a new language
4:41
can be so therapeutic it's all about
4:44
growth you know experimenting and maybe
4:46
even making a few mistakes without
4:49
worrying about anyone else's judgment
4:51
this is your canvas this is your chance
4:54
to grow
4:56
independently uh discover what you're
4:58
capable of and realize that you can
5:00
create your own adventures and trust me
5:03
that feels so amazing it feels so
5:07
amazing okay here's the tough part when
5:10
we are alone sometimes our thoughts get
5:13
loud it's like every
5:16
insecurity every unresolved feeling and
5:19
every doubt comes out comes up in the
5:23
quiet you know and instead of avoiding
5:26
them um just try sitting with them I
5:30
know I know this is I know it sounds
5:33
cheesy or maybe even scary but facing
5:35
those thoughts head on is one of the
5:38
most freeing things you can do for
5:41
yourself you know some some of these
5:43
feelings they want you to acknowledge
5:45
them maybe the things that have happened
5:47
to you or
5:49
whatever sometimes you just need to sit
5:52
down and accept that hey I see you I see
5:56
you I feel you and yes it happened and
6:00
there's nothing I can do about that a
6:02
simple thing like that can can can can
6:06
weigh off so much from your shoulders by
6:09
just acknowledging your own feelings
6:12
your own feelings when you stop running
6:15
away from what's on your mind you start
6:17
finding Clarity and um a deeper
6:20
understanding of who you are you realize
6:23
you can be your own source of comfort
6:25
and that kind of resilience wa child
6:29
that's power F and that's so powerful
6:32
being alone is a chance to to practice
6:35
self love on a whole new level when
6:38
you're not distracted by others
6:40
expectations or drama you have the space
6:43
to start appreciating yourself for who
6:45
you really are and look it's okay it's
6:48
okay if at first it feels strange or
6:51
even a little unsettling it's a process
6:55
take your time slowly you'll find what
6:58
you
7:00
you'll find what you didn't even know
7:02
that you have within yourself and that
7:05
is the best company you'll find that
7:07
you're the best investment you could
7:10
ever make this doesn't mean shutting
7:13
yourself um off from others it doesn't
7:16
mean not not being friends with people
7:18
anymore not socializing it's just about
7:21
finding peace in your own company you're
7:24
not waiting for someone to to come along
7:26
and make you feel complete you are
7:28
building that feeling on your own you
7:30
are doing that for yourself for yourself
7:35
and let's face it even if you have a
7:37
twin brother twin sister so identical at
7:41
the end of the day your life is your
7:43
life alone when you die you die alone so
7:47
why not just build a friendship for
7:50
yourself within yourself with yourself
7:54
why can't you do that because you
7:56
couldn't be with yourself for the rest
7:58
of your life for the rest of your life
8:01
when you sleep and close your eyes at
8:03
night and you are thinking of your life
8:06
and everything that is ever happen to
8:08
you everything that you want to happen
8:09
to everything there you are alone in
8:13
your head with no one else even your
8:17
your
8:17
identical sibling no one else just you
8:21
so just be a friend just build that
8:25
friendship and trust me you will thank
8:27
me I'm telling you you thank me so next
8:30
time you find yourself alone resist the
8:33
urge to to to feel the silence just let
8:36
it be you know let yourself breathe and
8:39
remember you are enough just as you are
8:44
Embrace those moments of solitude
8:46
because the relationship you buil with
8:48
yourself it's the foundation of
8:51
everything else of everything else and
8:55
the more you spend time by yourself and
8:58
maybe even and focus on your hobbies
9:01
this is a place where you you get to
9:04
learn so much about your strengths about
9:08
your weaknesses sometimes you even end
9:11
up finding out why you procrastinate on
9:13
things or why this has been happening or
9:17
because now now you've shut down the
9:20
world for that moment and you are
9:22
focusing in yourself and you're
9:24
completely being honest with yourself
9:27
and now you can see what's been holding
9:29
you back and now you can learn and now
9:32
you can you can grow and improve that
9:37
whatever that is because you now have
9:39
the time to focus on yourself you now
9:43
have the time to listen to your thoughts
9:45
you now have the time to acknowledge
9:48
your feelings now you have this this big
9:52
opportunity of actually finding out um
9:57
why why why some things are happen the
9:59
way they happening into your life so if
10:02
you are always surrounded by people and
10:05
you can't even spend some little time
10:07
alone because you always want friends
10:10
next to you sometimes when that happens
10:14
you don't even have time for yourself
10:16
you can't even check in on yourself you
10:18
don't even know what's going on with
10:19
yourself because your space and your
10:22
time is always filled with people you're
10:24
always talking to people having
10:26
conversations with people and when
10:28
you're done done you're just so tired
10:30
and you go back and you just go to sleep
10:33
and that's it you you go to sleep right
10:36
there cuz you're so you're so exhausted
10:39
and that's understandable that's
10:41
understandable so take the time for
10:44
yourself when you're not exhausted and
10:46
just be by yourself listen to your
10:48
favorite music take that book and
10:51
journal Rite how was your day how do you
10:55
feel all of those beautiful things and
10:58

11:05
yourself and don't don't don't um be
11:09
impatient with yourself it's going to
11:11
take time yes at first you might feel
11:14
lonely but you as time goes on you you
11:18
actually learn that there's a difference
11:21
between being lonely and being alone so
11:25
once you get used to it once you get
11:27
used to it once you get used to it and
11:29
do not be afraid and don't criticize
11:31
yourself and those thoughts that come
11:33
into you just accept yourself for who
