The Power of Having Nothing to Lose. I'd like to add that I don't enjoy these kinds of videos when I'm in a good mood and free from dysfunctional anxiety. But when they are a factor, it's really... soothing. I identify with the narrator's complex of narcissism, wishful thinking, avoidance coping, fear of failure, perfectionism and learned helplessness. I'm impressed that he's a preeminent executive coach now and I'm a socially anxious LW geek. Throughout my life I've had a fear of criticism that has kept me, like many others, from getting shit done. Now I fear all the criticism I haven't got received and all the mistakes I haven't made. Oh god I hope I'm not turning into one of those people on psychology forums or support groups that just self-victimise and moan, groan and complain all day like hypochondriacs.

Breathe into your balls. This is my favourite video. It's explicitly antirational and paradoxically rational.
