As George Carlin said: If children are special, at what age do you go from being special to being not-so-special? And if Adults are special, then that means we're all special and the whole idea loses its neaning.
Im suprised Penn doesnt know or rerally respect Nathaniel Branden. He was a massive leader in the libertarian movement. His views on "Self-esteem" are not like your usual "BULLSHIT" Its as simple as acheiveing ones valued self interest will bring self worth. Pretty easy to understand. Branden is a brillant man for sure.
About the girl who wants to be a Corrections Officer, after you become a Corrections Officer, you will have all the self-esteem in the world, especially if your assigned to the prison Bernie Madoff is in. You can laugh at Bernie every day, tell him you are having steak for supper & then ask what he is having for supper. LOL! Its like in "Con Air", "You'll like it Cirus. Its called 'I'll never make love on the beach again.' followed by the award winning 'No more steak for me... Ever.'"
When I was in rec sports, EVERYONE got a trophy. I wasn't TOO upset, because the winners got a bigger trophy. But then, my team won the championship, and we got a tiny trophy like everyone else. I was rip shit. I'm still rip shit. I was so proud, and then I got told I didn't deserve a bigger trophy because it hurt everyone else's feelings. I said, "FUCK THIS! That's BULLSHIT!" I then threw the trophy on the ground, snapping it, and left. I never went back. I still hate them for that...
@samuelsixvids Ah, I'm more about cock than pussy, but thanks for the advice. :) I agree sex would cheer me up, but seeing that I'm fat and ugly, it isn't likely to happen for me.
Low self esteem? Blame your mom for putting you on the tit when shit got real. Anyway, Fact is: the higher your self esteem, the higher your self importance, and self importance is the same as douche bag. Don't be a douche bag fellas. Just love what you love, tolerate what you hate, and fuck what stands in your way. No need to be "special". It's an illusion produced by the makers of Religion and your mamma that hates you for being gay but lies and says she still loves you.
my self esteem is pretty shitty, but if i focussed on it then i'd never get out of bed. i just think "fuck my self esteem, i'm fine and no one gives a shit about anyone's esteem but their own". works better than goofy work shops.
You really want to mess with the heads of these self esteem gurus? My son, when he was in school, and these nut jobs would give their "you can be anything" speech, he would tell them he wanted to be a sniper with the worlds record for longest range head shot, and or highest body count. It really messes with them because most are uber liberal, and have no sense of humor what so ever.
I'm no-one special over-all but Im damn good at some things so that makes me feel good. you have to accomplish things that make you grow and are worthwhile and the self esteem comes naturally and not forced. You can't achieve any balance by just talking about it or being congratulated for doing mundane things.
For most, knowing the pain of low self esteem is what encourages us to help other people keep a high self esteem. Although I'm a lot less stupid than that, and a lot more assertive, so I don't do that pathetic bullshit.
The problem is that every girl thinks she can be like Beyonce; every boy thinks he can will one day play pro sport. The truth is, some people are just born to be accountants.
So if we tell every kid that they're special, then they are no longer special. A million kids can't all be special. Which one is the most special. Over inflated self esteem is bullshit. Thank you Penn and Teller.
I had social anxiety for a long time. People would always tell me I had to "build up my confidence." Then I went to a doctor and found out I had several deficiencies, Iron chief among them. When I began to get it sorted out, I felt much better about myself and in general.
@bobojack83 Yup. Chemical imbalance explains an incredible amount of psychological disorders and it's always a shame when someone decides to consult a psychiatrist when a doctor would make more sense.
I think that the larger cups had half, and 2/3rds of the inside solid, so you poured the milk into the front half of the glass and it appeared to be filling the whole cup.
A common pillar of self esteem movements is "We all have potential." Biologically and mathematically speaking, this is completely true. On the same token, this means that, as The Mythbusters have said, failure is always an option, too.
The main problem with self esteem movements, when there is one, is when they congratulate people for not having DONE anything yet. Yes, we're special, but ultimately it's what we DO, not who we ARE.
AAAAAAAAGHHH!!! YES!!! Thank you! Sorry, calm down. Related to that, I have heard many self-obsessed wankers who are connected with these movements state, mid-auto-fellatio, that the 'secret' of their 'success' is something they are not something they do. There seems to be a fundamental distrust of action in favour of sculpting their internal self-image.
Which is a real pity. Some parents don't even give a shit about their children unless they've done something (like get top grades in school or something).
Not disagreeing with you, just stating what I've observed about people around me. It's sad, but that's how it is, and that's unlikely to change anytime soon.
9:50. Correctional Officer, Prison Guard. Actually when girls who look like that are "C.O.'s" they're really hookers for the boys inside. I bet she makes TONS of cash selling her vadge to the crips and bloods and aryan brotherhood in whatever prison she works in.

@sphinx129 I can't go to school because I'm "mentally unstable", I have very few friends and I can't see them due 24/7 observing of my life.
BUT I have self-fucking-esteem closer to sun than most meteoroids ever get. What is my problem? I'm happy and fortunate to live my life like this? Society doesn't agree.
The Milk trick explained: Double-sided plastic. there's a small space that you pour into, giving the illusion of pouring a bigger amount than you have in the tiny cup. =)
god my parents sent me to one of these seminar style things when i was 12 as i was apparently too negative. It was actually run by the borderline conman named Jack Black (no relation to the actor). Basically said all the same bullshit that these people do. I refused to take part in the BULLSHIT. I had low self esteem as i was incredibly scrawny, ugly, unpopular and was being bullied. How did i improve my self esteem, i went to the gym, became more sociable and worked hard in school......
@MunkyDrag0n i think the cups arent hollow but have like an up side down cup within it so the milk just spills down the sides givin the illusion it has filled the cup....thats why they use milk, cheers
Why the hell would anyone want to live the American Dream? Or the Australian Dream? Or the Italian Dream? Trying to fulfil that dream is what got us where we are today!
The first cup is a normal cup. The other two have tubes through the middle that holds the liquid. The shape of the cup makes it look like the whole thing is filled. If you pay attention closely you can see him pouring the milk directly into the middle of the cups.
But if you don't have any self-esteem, doesn't this mean you are depressed? And I think it's already established that depressions are bad. Or am I missing something?
@blenderpanzi The criticism of today's self-esteem building idea doesn't mean "you should think you're worthless," it means something more like "don't think you're entitled without earning anything."
@Megaritz Ok, well, my social environment is completely untouched by this then. I and the people I know rather suffer from the opposite: Thinking I'm never good enough and I don't deserve what I've got. So of course this other extreme strikes me as odd.
I'm sticking with George Carlin's view on this subject. NOT EVERYONE IS SPECIAL, quite obviously. Why? Because if everyone is special then....... no one is. You cannot get away from that last. We do not start our working life at the top because we are NOT special. People fail. Accept it.
@DansEditorials Special would be accepting one's self in spite of the obvious flaws and failings. George Carlin once put it that one of the obvious failings of the Self Esteem movement was that surprisingly to most people, bullies feel quite good about themselves. It does not reduce bullying, in fact it escalates the instances. I recommend aspiration with a preparedness for failure. This kind of logic would far better benefit a child than telling him he is a winner when he ran dead last.
@Ozjourneyman You are right.But your last sentence and the one before it aren't really right.Mostly, people fail because they don't try good enough or hard enough.Just wanted to add it.
@DeathShooterZ And also because they're simply incapable of some things, no matter how hard they try! Go try to be a Hollywood actor or professional athlete or surgeon or physicist without inherent talent! It's not all about "trying hard".
The only person who can give you self-esteem is YOURSELF. People who care about you will help you out, but a stranger who charges you for a book or therapy? Fuck that!
This lady needs to drop her self-esteem teaching course and go listen to David Lynch talk about transcendental meditation. Maybe she'll finally find some true enlightenment and drop this shit.
I disagree with what a lot of Penn and Teller have to say, but they're spot on here.
The self-esteem movement is ruining our schools, our corporations, and our government. Everybody expects to be a winner without even the smallest bit of effort. There's no drive or incentive to succeed.
@8ballsix27 Rigged glasses. There's a cover on the top of each one that extends down all the way to the base of each one. When filled with liquid, it runs down the sides since it can't go anywhere it pleases. This creates the illusion of fullness with a tiny amount, even though the center off the glass is completely empty.
Nathaniel Brandon is an expert on self esteem? I'm not sure he even understands human emotions. Look at his face and listen to his voice; I'd say there's a 50% chance he's a robot.
Oh boy. Motivational "life coaches." When are people going to accept reality as is, and realize that we are nothing special? Talk about feeding narcissism. "I feeel like a loser because I lost my relationship and job and car." Reality is that these things happen to people all the time, and maybe people should quit trying to "define" themselves through relationships, jobs and cars. We are all the same organic matter. Quite simply, we aren't "special."
well self esteem is important and can undermine and build you up.

The only person who can give you self-esteem is YOURSELF. People who care about you will help you out, but a stranger who charges you for a book or therapy? Fuck that!

This lady needs to drop her self-esteem teaching course and go listen to David Lynch talk about transcendental meditation. Maybe she'll finally find some true enlightenment and drop this shit.

I disagree with what a lot of Penn and Teller have to say, but they're spot on here.
The self-esteem movement is ruining our schools, our corporations, and our government. Everybody expects to be a winner without even the smallest bit of effort. There's no drive or incentive to succeed.

@8ballsix27 Rigged glasses. There's a cover on the top of each one that extends down all the way to the base of each one. When filled with liquid, it runs down the sides since it can't go anywhere it pleases. This creates the illusion of fullness with a tiny amount, even though the center off the glass is completely empty.

Self esteem is a bullshit, and so is most psychology. Philosophy is the answer

When I completely PWN someone in Modern Warfare 2 (not very often), I'm kind of banking on them getting a low self esteem. Don't ruin that for me.

Nathaniel Brandon is an expert on self esteem? I'm not sure he even understands human emotions. Look at his face and listen to his voice; I'd say there's a 50% chance he's a robot.

Oh boy. Motivational "life coaches." When are people going to accept reality as is, and realize that we are nothing special? Talk about feeding narcissism. "I feeel like a loser because I lost my relationship and job and car." Reality is that these things happen to people all the time, and maybe people should quit trying to "define" themselves through relationships, jobs and cars. We are all the same organic matter. Quite simply, we aren't "special."
