I've known many an artist that lack the warrior energy. They become pathetic, washed up, and essentially useless to society while their ego plays the whole "look at how noble I am for being a struggling artist in a world of fools" game. I know this deeply as I was also that artist for many years. My father passed away when I was 11 and I never had anyone to teach me how to be a man. One day I had enough, I picked up a shield and a sword and I went to war. War with my inner demons, my addictions, my flabby body, my immature emotions, my lack of self sufficiency. I found good role models and I adhered to what they had to say. I walk with my head held high, my shoulders back and my chest out. I allow nothing to stand in my way and I sacrifice the temporary pleasures of today for a better tomorrow. Fail, fail, and fail again. For failure is the first step to success.

The world will ask you who you are, and if you don't know, the world will tell you. - Carl Jung.

"Imagine the Aion of Christ and the anti christ..." "What are you talking about go to work man." This part actually made me laugh out loud, nice one!

That moment as a writer when you realize - you enjoy people's grief-stricken reactions to the deaths of characters that you created.

Loved Carl Jung and the other people you mentioned. As an INFP, I finally understand what is happening and why I always feel isolated with people for a very long time.

I'm not finished yet, but so far this is one of my favourite videos made by you. The way you're able to articulate all of this and bolster it with relatability and humour is great. You're an engaging speaker, mate. Keep it up.

This is the slap in the face I needed. Thank you!

I appreciate your passion and enthusiasm for the great Carl Jung!

It's such a double-edged sword position because the isolation can bring profound creation, insights into the cyclical nature of life & the ability to observe and 'see through' the masks of society. However, the isolation makes you prone to what can be rather severe mental health affliction if prolonged and this paradoxically can strain the individuals ability to communicate their new found ideas and creations to the world. I did a study abroad year (from Northern Ireland to Mississippi), what I found fascinating is that Mississippi is the most obese and impoverished state (also consider the racial disparities taking place), one would think that the rate of suicide there would be maybe at the top of the list of the U.S., however, those top ranking positions are actually held by states that are more isolated and lack communities (Wyoming, New Mexico, Montana and Alaska). A reminder to take care of your mental health creatives, the beauty of a new perspective such as a conversation with someone can yield great health.

You sir are the Carl jung of my age. Thank you for your greatnesses in storytelling and ability to break things down in a practical straightforward manner.

The first to see, the first to sing The first to stand and stride The first to go, to first to know The first to teach the wise Under the same sky From a thousand and one tribes Wanders that single Hero inside

Keep it up boyo this stuff is so important. Taking the journey you've described is something that has changed my life completely from looooong term depression with consistent suicidal ideas to appreciating every single moment that I'm alive. Thank you for the encouragement as I charge down this path.

This one hit home. I'm working my way up out of the crushing nature of society's spinal chord. I believe in the future it will change towards us creative people.

This is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing and being on this earth. I know myself better after listening to this video. For that I am immensely grateful.

Love you, uberboyo 💜 I am comforted and guided by your videos. They make me finally feel understood and less alone on this journey

"The Alex Jones of Psychology" Gold

I don't know man, I hear you, but I've been continually surprised at how I'm able to lure people in, if I gauge their interests correctly. I think more people than we normally assume are into this stuff, but getting that first hit, getting over the initial hurdle, one might need a little push. For example, as you thought about yourself being introverted, I had all this in me, although latently. I had to completely change environment (travel solo to asia), and after that move in with other creative people, live with them for a year, only to realize that this unactualized potential within me was now manifesting. Had I continued in the same routine, I might not have discovered that. surely that is the case for many others. We are unsure to what degree personality is natured or nurtured (lack of good inter-cultural data), and as you know, a single psychedelic dose can knock openness up a full standard deviation. We should probably be careful to essentialize ourselves and think ourselves as existing within these boundaries, I am such and such, I fit into this categories but not this one.. Ultimately these are frameworks, useful ones of course, but lets not mistake the finger for the moon.

The way you communicate these bottled up thoughts and concepts that I have ACCURATELY is crazy ! I really needed to hear this, every sentence you said resonated with me. Thank you Stephan!

Stayed up all night drawing and was planning to get some sleep after my workout. Guess I’ll be pulling an all nighter 😊

This is brilliant, the odds are adding beautifully to understanding the self.

I did that for years painting canvases everyday and showing art in galleries in NYC . It was a drug I was your age boyo. Today it is nice to drive my Ferrari while looking at the clouds ⛅ young man. You are one of the last or new breed of romantics hard to say ...🤔

Having read through the red book and the Black books simultaneously at different points, and at multiple times, I have reworked myself into a entrepreneur of the arts and technology I always dreamed of. The answers are within, someone like Carl Jung simply writes it down.... Truly amazing. Found out through my family lineage that I have heavy arts and engineering throughout different generations. Irish, french, english, even native American. Really puts a perspective on things.

Never ever delete any of your videos, i saved this one,this sums it up SO PERFECTLY

Can you explain all these concepts related to openness, Jung and the collective unconscious to the people who judge and don't understand me? Lol. But your interpretation of Nietzsche is incisive and accurate: it's not the world's responsibility to conform to the open person; it's the open person's responsibility to ground himself in the world.

Jung was such an important part on my journey. My journey has now lead me to neoplatinism and early Buddhism. The old philosophers and their deep metaphysics might be what some of you are lookimg for 🙂 jung is a bridge to the heavy stuff!!

This resonates with me to the core.. Thank you for helping me get straight. Makes a ton of sense. You are awesome.

i never felt so understood by a yt video

Hey ! I often tell to friends when they are asking me where Nietzche’s philosophy comes from, what philosophy is the father of Nietzche’s philosophy, I always respond Michel de Montaigne. And it was one of the favorite philosophers of Nietzche. In fact I view Montaigne as the precursor of Nietzche philosophy and also the closest to it in terms of ideas, and not Schopenhauer’s. Montaigne is against book cope, big ideas such as metaphysics, idealism, systems and concepts of thinking, fanatism, the idea of the absolute truth, mocking them and he is also one of the few philosophers at that time that was skeptical about Reason as the base of philosophy. Just like Nietzche, he thought Reason comes from our senses, our body, therefore bound to be imperfect. He favors living experience over studying books. And therefore to create our own « art de vivre » by our own experience, similarly to Nietzche’s thought of creating our own values. What I loved about Montaigne, and so do Nietzche is his absent of fear to make mistakes and to contradict himself as a thinker, he also changes his mind on certain topics throughout his life. Something that so many philosophers are afraid to do, afraid that there house of cards of concepts and reasoning blows apart. He never thinks of himself as some sort of genius philosopher that knows absolute truth, instead he thought of himself as nothing more than a flawed human being. Montaigne actually had a short memory, so he mainly dictated his thoughts to someone that writes for him, just like what Homer did. And that’s what « Essay » is all about. An attempt, an experience, an evaluation to be and to think as a flawed human being in a flawed world. His philosophy was never static, always moving, evolving. It succeeded , it failed, it doubted itself, therefore it perfected through time and living experience. Nietzche viewed his philosophy as full of power, life and vitality, « juiciness » if you call. Hence why he viewed Montaigne’s works and French writings in general as the highest form of philosophy, and not Germans, nor English’s. I definitely recommend to read Montaigne if you like Nietzche, Carl jung etc..

"you need to go up to the realm of dreams and learn how to grab those concepts and integrate them with reality" = all I had to do to take their place was to speak this black dream back into memory.

16:03 Holy shit this bit was too funny

It hurts to be creative. Real creativity is not always appreciated by the masses

This spoke to me, you're a legend. I always click your vids before anything else!

As a kid I was always imaginative and would make toys out of anything, I remember trying to build an actual life size race car with the leftover woods from my uncles piles at age 9 or 8(built the frame but it couldn’t move. Dint have the slightest of idea about automotive). When I was introduced to stuff I’ll later find out to be comics/manga, I was obsessed with it every time, everyday I would come up with a comic series and sketch it out, I dint have any formal art lessons or writing lessons dint even know wut the art form was but I dint care I just loved drawing and coming up with stuff. Eventually had my drawing book taken by the teacher because I wasn’t focusing in class, my parents heard bout it and forced me to stop drawing. I was still constantly lost in my day dreams tho, that was an issue I wasn’t able to complete get rid off. All this happening before I turned 14. For years I din’t draw but I constantly had a flow of ideas and the urge to draw would constantly force themselves to top and I’ll suppress it by saying it’s too late to start now (comparing my present self to who I would’ve been if I dint stop drawing). After high school I was doing nothing and was lost doing the same boring mindless job everyday. I fell into a mind numbing depression, depression that made the idea of death a senseless ordeal (probably due to my Christian believe) reasoning being “if wut I was feeling was not physically how would killing the physical stop it?” That was under the believe of an afterlife of course. I found my interest to draw coming back, I picked up a pencil and drew everyday for a year straight with a few days off. I started running and working out, got into philosophy and read a few. I don’t know how I managed it but am still here alive and not depressed, tho obsessed with all things art and philosophy. Told my mom I wanted to become an artist and she said I was going to starve to death. Then she told me a story about how my late grandpa told my parents to name me “Chukwudenkai” which could be taken as “God of art”, or“Gods art” . Started a webcomic project, my first comic since I was kid, and I choose this to tackle my philosophical belief and religious ideas. Most times it’s uncertain and chaotic but lately I’ve been having and insane sense of peace and reaffirmation that this is the right path. Like it’s almost Ecstasy like feeling. Dreams have encouraged me to keep at it, to keep drawing especially at my lowest. Am just soo happy to be me

I absolutely love you! Thank You!

You’re the best , man. I mean boi-o. Always love the topics of the videos. I also have that appetite for these topics and appreciate the content you make.

Fascinating. How did that hour go by so quickly? I didn’t want it to end. I needed this. Thank you!!

“Open up the turd dimension” 😂😂😂 Seriously, though, I’ve never heard anyone, including myself, describe my interior experience of the world as accurately as this. Thank you!

Glad to see you’re making some progress career wise with what you’re doing mate. I do miss a lot of the old style of vids you used to make but you’ve always struck me as acting in good faith with your platform. Keen to see you progress further 💪🏻

I love talking about ideas, but it seems to me no one else does around me. Of course I don't mean to say I'm too special to converse with other people, that would be arrogant, but I can feel the disparity a lot of the time. Pretty spot on description there in the beginning.

Throughout my life, I find myself attempting to perceive the world in the same way everyone else does. I drift into my imaginary world often; I realize that I am unable to connect with people which leads me into isolation but with that comes the advantage because I end up drowning myself into creativity/ideas/books. At times, it does feel like a curse, but I’ve managed to create a world of my own that even when I am alone … it’s a place where I feel safe at. When it comes to human connection , I will say … I wish people could see me in the way that I see them.

Great stuff man. Been struggling with a lot of these ideas myself and you seem to have really captured the essence here! I think the discussion near the end is interesting but contentious.

Your channel is great. Thank you

A really interesting, mind-stretching, realistic perspective.

Thankfully, I've been blessed with high Orderliness (sub-trait of Conscientiousness) as a counterpart to my high Openness to Experience. I can't really become overly-obsessed with either the abstract or material world, because I'm naturally compelled to "exist" in both. Working/organizing a material space is just as satisfying for me as deep internal journeys. Honestly, the major takeaway is that work in both realms is creative. We don't have to fixate on typical aesthetic experiences--painting, musical composition, writing(which are eventually forgotten)--because chopping up and stacking wood (which will burn to ash), or mowing a lawn, (which will grow back) or sorting products on a store shelf (which will be removed and purchased), are all creative and productive.

19:06 - 19:22 , I was tearing up at this part, I remember being 11 and my teacher asked my mom to come into school and talk with him about how much I day dream, I would always be staring out the window or staring at pictures in books. That day he asked me why do I do it, My mom asked me why as well but.......when I tried to think of why I couldn't, it wasn't something I could easily control, although daydreaming was way more interesting to me than class, funny thing is that year I performed at my academic peak. I never stopped daydreaming and I learned to pay enough attention to school and work and what not.

The problem with openness of mindfulness is that people are incapable of utilizing their true thought 💭. They listen to their Master subconscious/the group!!!!!

Dude you are brilliant. Sounds like me....Thank you for this!

So hyped for this one

irish accents will forever be funny to me 16:43 - "Ay ess em oire"

Thank you! The Red Book is insanely similar to my dream world!

Bro... literally 2:03 and you got my heavy attention. I think we're both the same personality type. And 2.03 in and I LOVE how you're articulating this... 🙏🏾

This was a massive help for me, thank you Uberboyo!🙌✨

Nice video, love to see you becoming more recognized, started watching you when you had podcasts with the Ginger Master of Psychology

Even if that is the case it's good to know others exist, That's good enough for me ✊🏾

The way they teach history, they fail to convey the fascinating madness of people like Henry Ford with his obsessions, prejudices, hatreds, stubbornness, passion. Our world is maintained by normies - but created by the Henry Fords (supported by normies)

24:24 🤯🤯🤯I’m gob smacked…I’m this creative type exactly!! And do Exactly as you said when you’re saying short burst of focus and then relax for the day..before I even heard this i was already gravitating to it and I’m impressed with myself to learn that…I work for myself trying to build a business idea up for the automotive industry and it’s a very niece service upon which I hope to expand on but I work exact as you say and function exactly as a the creative 😂😅 anyway 😜 to all the creatives ✌🏼

This is a brilliant video, I've got a QUESTION though: Lets say you're hyper aware of all the nuances that comes with this personality type that you mentioned in this video (or you think you are). What should you be doing next? what should be your focus? should you just wait in the abyss of complexity until a miracle happens? I don't want to be one of those failures you talked about (I'm well-aware and fear the likelihood of me failing). Is it something like, doing what you fear and just taking initiative in everything because you have nothing to lose but everything to gain.

Bro, you are just like me, that's scary- and your description of open people is scarily accurate

Thanks!

The description on this video is pure fucking gold, lmao.

couldnt agree more... i am so creative and i see that alot of people lack creativity so i just roll solo alot. but when i meet a person that have equal or more creativity man we have some amazing convos and relevance

Thanks man really encouraging and helpful to me . I bet you're liberating many .

I call You fellow warrior of Nature! We The outlaws, The ANOMALY that world needs to progess!

The intro resonated with my whole being lol

This is the best video i've ever watched

You are the druid of RU-vid. I Love it! You are right about having 2 to 4 hours every day to create. If I'm not producing or songwriting I feel like I've failed at life ( I think creatives put harder standards on ourselves when we work)..or if someone interrupts me I get cranky. I always think about how other artists manage real jobs, dating and friendships because I love music way more than ppl lol I also wonder if the hero's journey applies to artist types at all.. Are we just outside the circle of the collective until we make something useful? What if that never happens? Lol

Sometimes I think I watch this to remind myself that I'm not crazy

Very sobering and perspective-enhancing stuff. Thanks dear Boyo!

I'm so in love with all of you boyos ❤️

Have you read 1Q84? I've been trying to understand it because I just recently finished it and I feel like you would love it. Most people I have talked to about it hated the ending but if you look at it in this context it makes at least a little more sense. And Jung is brought up in the last few chapters. It's so funny how I keep getting drawn back to Jung but don't really read him or philosophy or psychology

ohh man i could listen you non-stop for days... thx for being

You do know how to sober a boy up, I feel fresh and to be bearing a much better attitude towards life. So thank you Mr Uberboyo

It’s awful when you can’t live your life the way you were designed. Money is the only thing I’m missing.

Such brilliant mind, and the most fluent speaker ever heard. Astonishing.

Have you and Jordan had a conversation? If you have please can you link the video 🥺

magnificent video. Very insightful and lots of confirmations. Well done and good luck in going forward.

I used to be big in to sports and a real lad's lad, but was always a creative open type at heart. Went the singer-songwriter route eventually but neglected a lot of stuff from that more athletic side. Thought the gym, running and sports were lame and lame alone for a while. Could do with integrating a more mature version of my past self with my new self. Beginning with some push ups and sit ups.Thanks Uberboyo, this video brought a lot of things together for me. I might sign up for that call when I leave this crazy modern University that surprisingly hasn't stunted my creative side.

So happy you posted more on Jung!

3 mins in and I can definitely relate. The openness personality is like a curse and a blessing in disguise.

Very important video mate .. thanks 🙏🏻

Enjoyed the vid, thanks boyo 👍

This talk was truly inspiring for me.

18:00 Listening to this later so I can write

I used to art. Then art somehow died. Do i rediscover? Or resurrect art? Is it as simple as stop thinking and take action?

Real talk: At first Im like ‘I hope this doesnt devolve into cringey pseudo-self-inteospection’ but one minute in and I feel like Im listening to someone who finally fucking understands whats its like to be one of ‘us’ so to speak Keep up the good work. This channel is growing and will blow up

29:37 >describes Ancient Greece as barbaric. You know you have a point there😂😂😂 29:44 HAHAHA BRO YOURE ON POINT

Excellent!

Wow fabulous talk I really needed it right now

Love your channel.. Ur my new Sturgil Simpson of psychology,✌️❤️

Extremely insightful, thanks!

Watching this now while I have the “Modern Man in Search of a Soul” in my hands. For once I’m grateful for the algorithm leading me here.

The Alex Jones of psychology ahahahahhaha LETS GO BABY

thanks. so this is why I had to go so deep inside myself, to creak all the darker corners and now I can sip into the upper sea. Just when I was getting lost again for the 296th time

What happened to his beard at 14:00???? I need answers

10 mins in and wow, this really spoke to me.

You finally look healthy. Good job. 💪 🤣

Relatable.

Number 1 takeaway for me, we need everyone, and must embrace our individuality for our sake and for the sake of those around us. Future survival in the hands of the brave, rather than whatever type you consider yourself to be. Boldness when combined with sense of purpose defeat the greatest of odds, sooner or later, as you or as others. I’m a few words, be you, no matter what.

We have a lot in common (aside from Irish heritage). As a high openness personality trait bearing individual, I have written 2 memoirs - "The New Lane" (available for purchase online) and "Mommy Issues" (available for download for free on my RU-vid channel). I think you'd find both very interesting. Keep up the good work.
