Today, we're going to be talking about how to fall in love with being alone. Because let's be real, being alone can be hard sometimes. And I don't, if you're out there and you're like, well, being alone isn't that hard for me. I don't mean being alone and watching Netflix or scrolling on your phone or any of that. I mean being alone, 100% alone with no external stimulation.
Is that kind of tough for you? Because for most people that I talk to, it's almost unbearable. A couple of reasons why. Number one, we're tribal beings. We like to be around other people. It's built into us. And we like socializing. For people who are introverts like me, we like socializing less than the average person, but we still like it at some points in time.
And we also like to be entertained. But the statistics prove that the older that you get, the more time you will spend alone. And so if that's the case, we might as well learn from it. We might as well gain from and get something from being alone. But here's the truth of the matter. Being alone doesn't mean that you have to be lonely.
And the key here is how you actually look at it and how you actually frame it. If you can shift your mindset, Solitude will become an opportunity rather than some form of a burden that you need to avoid. Today's episode is not going to be like surface level self-care tips or anything like that.
We're going to be diving deep into the psychology of this, the rewiring of your thought patterns, and the real transformation that can happen when you fully embrace being alone within yourself without having to have anybody around or any external stimulation. Loneliness, when you look at loneliness, is the pain of feeling disconnected.
Solitude on the other side is the power of being deeply connected to yourself when you're alone. And so the only home that we will ever really have, like this is a, you know, I live inside of a house. This is a studio that I have in one of the rooms in my house. This is my house. But the only true real home that I will ever have is inside of me. And same with you.
The only real home that you'll ever have is within you. The problem is that many of us mix the two of them up between solitude and loneliness. We assume that if we're alone, something must be wrong. And when we have FOMO or we think, why are people not wanting to hang out with me? Or I should entertain myself in some sort of way. But I want you to think about it like this, okay?
And this is very important for you to understand. Being alone is a state of being. Loneliness is a state of mind. See the difference? Being alone is just a state of being. I'm just alone. Loneliness is a state of mind. Oh my gosh, I shouldn't be alone. I should be with people. Why don't people want to hang out with me? It's a state of mind. It's all happening in your head.
