The Resilient Mind · Why the Best Decisions of Your Life Will Look Like the Worst Ones First - Dr. K (Healthy Gamer) · 27 May 2026 podcast

But motivation actually has its own developmental trajectory.

So if you look at, I think something like there was a study on LinkedIn that showed that 70% of people under the age of 30 feel like they're going through a quarter-life crisis.

So if you just talk to people in their 20s, they're not going to know what to do.

They're sort of like in some career, but they're not sure.

There's this existential threat of AI.

So we used to see a lot more midlife crises, and we're starting to see a lot more quarter-life crises.

Very well.

What happened to you?

Were you still an events planner or organizer?

Yeah.

So what's really interesting is your story maps on to the research like close to one to one.

So this is what's really fascinating.

So if we look at our motivational structure.

When we're kids, we actually don't have any internal sense of self.

So if you really look at it, kids are so free.

Why are they so free?

Because they're not worried about judgment.

They don't even have really self-awareness of like who I am.

They're just impulses.

And then what happens is the society around them is conditioning them, socializing them.
