Why Gen Z Feels Like Failures: AI, Loneliness & Dark Side of Success | Dr. K | FO481 Raj Shamani

So like as long as I self-sabotage myself, there's always the possibility of being the best.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

I just need to figure out how to do motivation and build the right habits and eat the right things.

And if I can figure everything out, then I'm going to be number one.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

But I don't ever really want to test myself.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

Does that kind of make sense?

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

Yeah, it does.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

So a couple of things to understand.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

One is that negative emotions are very powerful motivators.

Then we โ€“ people like you get into this trap where your negative motivation โ€“ like I asked you, is sad bad?

And then โ€“ so everyone was like, oh, yeah, I've been invisible too.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

Then you said sad isn't bad.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

Sad is good.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

That's where most people are gonna be left behind.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out
Why Gen Z Feels Like Failures: AI, Loneliness & Dark Side of Success | Dr. K | FO481 Raj Shamani

Because for them, sad is bad.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

But you realize that, okay, sad is my motivation.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

Now you're stuck.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

You're screwed, bro.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

Because if you stop being sad, why aren't you content?

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

If I offered you contentment, you wouldn't even take it.

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

True.
