Dear Stef: how can one learn to forgive oneself, and even love oneself after making some serious mistakes and and bad decisions? No excuses, though I could site childhood etc, but it's my fault. Separated now because of it. Started therapy, really working on myself, but the shame remains. I've come out a more genuine, honest, virtuous person, but the shame remains. Kind regards from long time subscriber and rare - but generous - donator.
can it be a demand if its never made?/is that not just a wish? And I can demand Elon Musk give me ten million dollars but without a credible threat of harm to him or someone he cares for that is not much of a demand and would be ignored. If it is credible its immotal and illegal unless I am in govt.
Or I make heck of a pitch. One for the angels so to speak. Appealing to logic with a real humdinger of a case as to why he would make a lot of money from it, and convince his accontants.
Or lastly an appeal to emotion so moving.and convinving he is so moved by it to open.his heart and wallet. Then my demands might be answred in the.affirmative. do you think stef bot would be able to script such an appeal? Lol.
But my real point I think even if it could doing so under false pretense is.a violation of UPB and a genuine scuzxy behaviour asides from.that fact.

On Hedonism vs Nihilism
Stefan Molyneux looks into why people who feel their lives lack purpose tend to slide into nihilism rather than hedonism. He describes nihilism as the view that existence holds no real worth, and hedonism as chasing after pleasure above all else. Molyneux argues that actual contentment comes from focusing on virtue and ethical conduct, drawing on Aristotle's idea of eudaimonia.
He points out that dropping one's ethical guidelines often pushes people toward temporary escapes through pleasure-seeking, but these fade over time and pull them toward nihilism. Molyneux also takes aim at today's economy for encouraging reliance on debt and rewarding unwise choices. In the end, he calls on his audience to embrace clear moral standards and consider how virtue plays a role in finding ongoing satisfaction.

NEW PREMIUM CONTENT - On Death and Dying
Stefan Molyneux examines aging, mortality, and questions about existence, drawing from Scott Adams' experiences. He considers how personal decisions shape health and the loneliness that sometimes follows from holding to principles. He talks about the need to chase goals without delay, questions simplistic ideas about disease, and stresses maintaining ties with others amid life's downturns. In the end, he urges people to review their relationships and aim for lasting impacts in a temporary life.
