honestly community college is underrated. yeah it sucks that you feel distant from everyone but it’s better than going to an expensive university and being in debt before you even get out
My mom always pressured me in to doing sports. She wanted me to be like my sisters. So she made me do gymnastics, cheerleadeing, and track. I didn't wanna do any of them, but I selted with track since I was a good sprinter. I didn't wanna tell her that I didn't wanna do sports, but I was scared she make to be my fault that I was the problem. So I just never said anything. Now she's been less pushy, but still trying to make me do sports.
The worst type of societal pressure is relationship pressure.. In the media, in public etc all you ever see are people in loving relationships while your always alone which makes you feel left out and unloved
Parents/Adults really think that when you reach a certain age, you have to be this amazing social butterfly that always goes out and socializes with everyone because every event is soooo interesting and we need participate in all and every event there is!! Ugh.
This video is straight facts. A nice balance of pressures is a good thing, too much of it does no help to anyone but people still need to remember the real world is not nice like that. You can get anywhere if you put your mind to it, just remember to be a respectable human being along the whole way.
I did community college for two years honestly the best decision of my life smaller class rooms, Learning skills you may of not been able to learn because the high school itself was on crack. Plus being someone who was a little bit slower than everyone. It taught me the basis of how to do college based papers and finishing them five weeks before the actual due date giving me amply time to edit the paper and getting an easy A in the classes. Now that I have transferred to an actual University all the year two and freshman look for me to advice. While at the same time the professor love having conversations with me.
@@ernie9538 Trades are great, but a majority of people aren’t suited for them and it requires a lot of hard work and manual labour. So, it rules out a good chunk of people. But if people want to go ahead, then sure
I think it's mainly because a lot of foreign parents are from either a.) wartorn or poverty-stricken countries where education is valued but inaccessible, or b.) countries like China or Japan where going to college is seen as the only way to go about having a happy, decent future.
Ive felt so pressured in my life that I’ve been wearing a mask for over a 1 year in middle school because I get judged for how I look and other things like that. Seeing someone agree with what I’ve had to deal with and not put a random.
Trade school is probably the best alternative to college. In my electrical school, you could tell the teacher you were gonna be late and he’d wait on you cuz he understands that life gets in the way. He cuts all bullshit, talks very directly and plainly, and cracks jokes. He even told us about good plans for the future (like Solar being the future, or how much HVAC pays), sometimes we’d even get out early if he finishes the teaching for the day faster than expected. Best teacher I’ve had.
Absolutly, and if you say "f*ck it, I dont want to do that" then you are the biggest monster similair in threat to the collosal titan from Attack on Titan just because in their eyes you are a brat or something.
It's also quite sad how we treat each other like robots and expect one another to go through the same patterns of behaviour and all of a sudden be happy. Without actually looking at what this individual really needs mentally, physically, spirituality and so on, like any human being should. But at least we are recognizing these cycles now and can change them.
College is an overhyped scam. Nobody will convince me to go to college. I’ll be a dumbass if it means I don’t go to college. Also thank you for the preach at the end, very motivational
Okay, just go to trade school, a boot camp, or get a degree in something literally any other way. If you have a business opportunity that you are passionate about, getting a certification in a topic related to it/it will help you massively.
In my senior year of high school. There was these people that would help us with college, and they would never take no for an answer. I was debating about college until they just ruined it for me.
My friends are pressuring me to make an Instagram to get girls. Quite honestly, I think it's pointless. Why do I need to show off my life to others just so that they could see the type of person I am? Isn't the point of social media to curate your profile and show your life at its highest point? I don't think it would even come close to showing who you really are. And why would I want to look at other peoples lives? So that I can feel shitty about my own? No thanks.
4:50 Yeah, community college is an absolute W. I took 2 years of community college and got my associates--then transferred to university to finish my bachelors. I must have saved about $40k in loans by NOT going to university all 4 years. And the funniest thing to me is that I feel like I got a better quality of education at my community college than my university. 😵💫
When you mentioned time I really became grateful for this channel and life in general thank you tommy I hope we all grow into the better version of ourselves.
I hate being pressured into doing shit I probably couldn’t care less about but because my peers won’t stfu about it, I do it just so they can add more shit for me to do to satisfy whatever they see me as in their head and if I don’t do it I’m a disappointment and an outcast I just want the simple life I don’t care about fame, I hate people.
I’ve learned that succumbing to pressure leads to failure- even when you conform with the “norm” people will always find something to judge because they’re miserable with their own lives. You go to college but realized your certain career could’ve been taught online or for a school with lower tuition, but stayed for the sake of reputation which no one cares about in the actual job industry. You earn a job but don’t make time to enjoy your own hobbies now that people are asking you to get a date, get out more, or when you’ll be married. Then you spend tons of money on marriage only to see the relationship fall out and now you’re a divorced parent with kids and have to work 10x more to pay off your eternal debts you “thought” were necessary for survival. Such an unfulfilling life I wouldn’t wanna see myself into :/
I am 39 years old and this dude is spitting straight facts, boomers have zero clue what young folk got to deal with days and I get into arguments with them all the time, next time I will just send this video hahaha
I’m not pressure too much by others but I’m pressured a lot by myself based on what I feel I should be doing. Pressure can be a good thing but it can be pretty stressful too. I feel like I’m boring and that I should be better but I’m not doing enough and I constantly compare myself to others and I take everything like a challenge. I challenge myself to be superior other people which is a good thing because I’m working on myself and making myself better but also a not so good thing.
5:33 Woah woah woah RU-vidrs aren't useless to society. Depending one how they use their platform they can teach people how to act and rase awareness of whats happening.
ive reached a point where sleeping 3 hours for grades and other stuff is almost daily and i live only to see the next weekend, vacation/break or even just the next day
“Your classmates see your hard. Your homies sees your hard. Your crush sees your hard. Your teacher sees your hard. Life is hard.” 😂 Speaking as a high school sophomore, that’s pretty much middle school in a nutshell
as a person whos future who wants to be a doctor in the future, im probs never even gonna be a doctor cause i suck at society and then ill be a fat discord moderator.
Yeah, Society has fucked me up. It has been making me hate my body I used to not think about my body, but now I can't stop. I've been bullied no-stop for slightly above average weight for years.
Thanks for the advice. As a 17 year old I often find myslef questioning where I want to be and what I want to do in life. I'm allways pressured by those around me to think about college and some of my friends are even graduating early and earning decent money. Seeing other people success can make you feel like what you do is not enough and honestly ts used to get to me. Like bruh why tf do you have 20 bitches and are making more money than the teachers? Ion even got a car yet😭 Society make sure to make you feel insecure 😭 Honestly I just found doing me and moving at my own pace to be the answer.
If I could absorb all the stress that my favorite RU-vidrs have and replace it with my happiness, I would be completely sad. No friends, no happiness, and just tired.
Thing is with men, you’re expected to be a father by a certain age. If not, you’ll be spit roasted to pieces by your family members and/or “friends”. But when a girl does it, the suffer some backlash, too, but not as much as we guys do. They’ll be praised if they didn’t want no children and they’d be called “independent” and strong” for not wanting have a baby and making girl boss moves..
@@Bigfoot_Fire I don't remember probably because I never remembered kindergarten also since when kindergarteners would be focus on getting girls instead of playing with toys
8:35 i was worried about money at young age because i grew up with a single mother with minimum wage in fkin Mongolia(very poor country) to add insult to injury i grew up in a time where mongolia was at its poorest
My way of dealing with society is that I tell myself that I am superior to everyone , that I am the ultimate lifeform and thats the reason I am chosen to be this world's protector , guardian and judge . I always feel like I have highest authority on Earth , but I don't abuse my advantages that I have on others , because I belive in justice , honor and dignity .
@@mrtrollnator123Feeling superior to anything is one of the things that give me confidence and motivation to protect , guard and judge this world . I just hate myself from 7 years into the past , of how under‐developed he was . But now I am able to stop almost any dangers to this world .
I only make fun of people when they try to make fun of me like saying the usually ugly or stupid so i just go off about there horrible life and how they deserved everything bad that happened to them so now they dont even look at me
I don’t even know what I want to do with my life, I don’t want to go through another few years in education in college and I’m austistic and get overwhelmed easily so I’m worried that I’ll be forced into a high pressure job it’s just so stressful
Nah bruh i live in Brazil, and as everyone knows that Brazil is kinda like India but better. No one would be like pressuring people into getting the newest iphone, because 10% of the students would have no phone, 25% would have phones but the screen looks like a fucking spider web of how many times it fell on the floor, and its not because they are careless, its because they got that thing 10 years ago, its inevitable that it would fall down and break. The rest is composed of people that just got their first phone (that is like a fucking iphone 6😭😭😭) , only got a computer that has a 75% chance its used or its a shitty brand. Also there is that guy that treats his phone like its his son and never lets it break (me😎), and at last the "rich" kid that is considered rich because he has a decent phone and chocolate powder.
As an asian the expectation to get into highschool IS SUPER HIGH, my friend got threaten to get their phone yeeted if they didnt get into highschool, Which here there is only a 1/3 chance to get into a good highschool
I'm 20yo, you are 19yo and have more success than me. I don't know if the end of the video is true, just don't k*** urself I guess and you'll be okay in life? I love staring at the roof man...
