Wrapping your mind around your life is pretty hard, because you are up to your neck in it. It's like trying to understand the ocean while learning how to swim. On most days you are busy just keeping your head above water. So it is not easy to figure out what to do with your life and how to spend your time.
There are a million distractions. Your family, friends and romantic partners, boring work, and exciting projects. Video games to play and books to read. And then there is your couch that somebody needs to lie on. It’s easy to get lost. So let us take a step back and take a look at your life from the outside.

The script was inspired by an old article from my friend Tim Urban, who runs “Wait but Why”, the best blog on the internet, make sure to check it out. waitbutwhy.com It’s so easy to get lost in your daily life: there are so many “urgent” and “annoying” things that you forget that actually every day is special, sort of. And even more so the days we have with friends and family. I know watching a video like this can hit pretty hard. But at least for me, the message it tries to convey does make me actually change my behavior. Reprioritize things. You know. Hope it had a similar effect for some of you. Also, if you want to track how many weeks off your life you have left or get a new perspective on this stuff, we’ve made a few posters you can check out. Getting something from our shop is the best way to support our channel. kgs.link/shop-143 In any case, call someone you haven’t called in a while today. And thank you for watching. - Philipp

Don't let this comment distract you from the fact that democracy has proven itself to be a complete and utter failure. Throughout history, democracy has ruined thousands of lives due to it's corruptible nature. Democracy may pretend to be a fair and equal system of government but that is all a lie. Look at some of the democratic nations of the world. Look at the USA, a tyrannical and unstable nation with a population that has been divided due to stupid political parties. What about Libya? Libya tried to be a fair and equal nation under democracy, and dissolved into a chaotic mess. As a matter of fact, the original democratic system in Athens was completely based on privilege. When democracy was first created, you could only vote if you were a rich man. Ever since it's inception, democracy has always been corrupt. The system of democracy is an evil thing and all members of a Senate/Parliament/Congress should be executed for irreversibly fucking up the planet

Reminder to not let this number take control of your life. I went down a bad depression spiral, hyperfixated on how little time I had left. It left me scared and unable to enjoy things, feeling like the end was right around the corner. Live in the moment.
Relatable and based,
Yes, and the feelings are one of the most precious treasures you can have, so make sure to have fun
Focus on the present, but be motivated by the number. Do not fear it.

When I was 29 I had a dream one night, where I saw the visual effects of warp speed in front of me, like on Star Trek. I zipped through the warp field, and a second later I was 46 years old! I woke up in a sweat! It was the worst nightmare ever! I was shaking, and soooo incredibly relieved that it was only a dream and I was 29, not 46. I looked at my 29 yr old body and thanked God it was only a dream. I knew though, that the Universe had given me that dream to illustrate how fast time moves, so that I would get off my butt and do what I came here to do. .. Now I am 71, and I gotta tell you, those years went by like the speed of light!!
Wow. Thank you for sharing this. I think I can speak for everyone in our 30s right now that this is the age where we feel young and older at the same time. Seeing teens talk about their life and older folks talking about theirs. It's interesting to be in this middle part of life and see how others have navigated it. Thank you for the life you live and giving us perspective as we keep going.
This made think more about how much time I have currently 15 and 5 until the work area of my life is coming and it scares me

My kind sir, I am currently in a freshman in high school, and I hope to enter some feild of engineering, but I don't know where to start and I worried about the math. Would you have any suggestions?
@@jamesblackwood656 hi, i know you're not asking me, but i wanted to offer some advice. keep in mind i'm only 13 rn so it might not the best. if i was you, i'd look at opportunities my school provides. see if there's an engineering or STEM club you can enter at your school. maybe your school has connections with a career center you can look at? my brother is 16 and he's taking heavy machinery classes at our local career center. he signed up through the school. if you're worried about math, i would tell someone who can help you, like a teacher. maybe you can get a tutor (if you can afford it or if one's available to you) and they can help you improve your skill. another thing you could do is reach out to your school's guidance counselor (if you have one). they're the go-to people for this kind of stuff because they can set you up for success and help you be ready for a career. i hope this helped :) good luck!
How did you find a job rn…
@@jamesblackwood656College sophomore in Calc 2 here. My biggest mistake was letting things go in one ear and out the other like with history and English. I could score 90s on tests in precal and trig wasn’t horrible, so I assumed I’d do fine in Calculus to. You’ve gotta have ALL your ducks in a row once you get to Calculus. If you’re good with math, just keep doing what you’re doing, and maybe watch some videos here and there on different things to keep yourself refreshed. If not, it’s just something you’ve gotta throw yourself at and spend time with until it’s so drilled into your head that it’s basically muscle memory. If you can, try to make some friends in your math classes to do the work with. It helps to have other people around to bounce ideas off of and point out mistakes with. You’re gonna learn a lot better by working out those mistakes as you have them than you would trying to save them all up for your teacher after class.
Happy birthday
I'm about to start university (I had orientation yesterday!!), and when I first saw this I was deep in the start of senior high school. It's a really nice reminder to live my life as best I can, and I'm grateful to be re-recommended this now.

This is so real
Wow
Didn't expect Genshin YT here
wha... mogawty? are you questioning "playing mobile games as an anime girl now"?
This was far more depressing than I expected it to be. Life is short.
I realized that recently when I calculated how long it would take to finish college and get to the point I want to be at in my life afterwards. It honestly made me get rid of the idea of filling my life with work because of how pointless it was.
But, on a cosmic level, unimaginably valuable, because most of the universe is void and inanimate. We are extraordinarily lucky to be surrounded by so much life.
Thats why cgp grey wants immortality
Dass ist Kurzgesagt. Wirklich du glaubste die Video war fröhlich?
Yeah when you realize what opportunities you missed (Age25+) and now i am 37. dam it goes waaaaay to fast.
I miss it when this video was called "What are you doing with your life" I really felt my whole life flashing before my eyes
I sometimes come back to this video and the last 4 mins about time with your children makes me reflect on how important my time is with mine. I find it emotional because it reminds me of just how much i love them and how important they are to me.
"Usually people don't think about this stuff all too much." Cool, how do they do it?
Drugs and alcohol, mostly.
I think the same bro!
hmmm genes environment childhood family money
You probably don't get it. It'll hit you when your older.

"The Calendar of Life" has to be the most depressing and also the most terrifying thing I have ever been offered
You though you was immortal.
I know right. I will 100% not be buying. But I understand how it can give someone a different perspective about the time they have left on Earth, which may motivate them to try new things or take risks.
it's a known and grim productivity boost to stop procrastinating
capitalism at its finest, if you're not producing or checking how much time you have left you're "wasting" time
Is just seeing the weeks you have left to live start to go lower and lower that makes you panic just even slightly. Even though it's a long time.
This video always pops up in my recommended right when i most need it. Its always a good re-watch and reminder. Time is precious
One of the most impact full video I've ever watch.

same bro, same.
Best channel together with The Exoplanets Channel !!
There is this stupid stoic calendar that has the amount of weeks you may live (average is like 75 years) and you're supposed to mark every week until you get to 75 years. I think it makes you basically stress about life rather than enjoy it. Like i get the idea behind it (don't think you have infinite time to do things you like) but you shouldn't panic about it either
I would actually want it. It would probably make me see how many weeks did I spend in misery, which could open my eyes and motivate me to live the life I want.
Ah yes, another Kurzgesagt video that reminds me of my quarter-life crisis.
kurzzy giving existential crises is the best kind of kurzzy

Here's the brutal truth my friend: It's better to face the shattering truth than live in denial your whole life, just because of the risk that you might wake up at some point in your life and realize you've been living a lie while it's it's too late to do something about it. From the second you finish reading this, you can do something about it. I'm sure you'll find your way. For the chance you don't, at least know you tried. That's life!

As someone's who's well past their teen years. And high school feels like a life time ago.

I think chilling on your day off is a worthwhile endeavor.
Life is really weird because everyone has their own preconceptions of what we should and shouldn’t be doing but when you stop and you’re by yourself and you really think about it, everything seems pointless. Things that push you forward, things that keep you in place, it just seems like the point of living is to be alive and we shouldn’t be so hard on ourselves. The only person that can answer what you want to do with your life is you. that’s why I get so frustrated when I ask myself what I wanna do and I don’t have an answer.

"You were pretty useless for society at this point" Me: Why are you speaking in the past tense?

We just barely had any opportunities from a ageist work culture

Still am. 72yr old. Ha 😀😀
Because originally we spent half of our wife or more just to do work to get enough money for us to be retire.
Very insightful video, and yes make sure you check in on your family from time to time, even just a phone call. Cause one day it will be too late. I was at least fortunate to talk to my dad the night before he passed. Life is what you make of it people, remember!
I don't know how I missed this video for 2 years now. But wow, talk about an emotional punch to the gut. Like, I have gone through a lot of mental processing and rethinking, heck it happened a few weeks ago when I thought I critically failed a landing during my flight lesson This kind of stuff hits me deep, there ain't a day that goes by where I don't think at least once "What did I do today... and how does this affect me in the future?" This video is amazing, and I feel like a lot of people should take what it says seriously.
Ten minutes ago: "Oh a new Kurzgesagt, those are fun" Now: "IT'S TEN IN THE MORNING AND I NEED A DRINK"
Drink isn't the solution bro..

I don't think I've ever had a video sucker punch me in the emotion that hard before ...
kurzzy: an existential crises for you-
feel the same dude
haha me neither
xd
I actually cried a bit with this video and i think im not alone
Man, holy god, this almost made me cry, thanks
i feel so dreaded now, i appreciate the support very much
I think this is the most “EXISTENTIAL CRISIS ALERT” video kurzgesagt has made so far.
Aaahh! I need a medic bag!
@@user-mo7sx2lz4f my f'ing mental state needs a medic bag after this video
I am going to die
Yes indeed! It inspires me and it makes an impact 😥
Life is almost like a game. Once we die, we won that game! And you get more points the more successful in life you are.
I graduate high school next week, an existential crisis is just what I need.
Good luck bro .... u will face a lot of existential crisis tho so take care
Lol the next decade is gonna be so fun
me too 😗✌🏼
Me too, pretty much :T
Haha it only gets worse from there!
“One day, you will see them for the last time” that line hit so hard I srsly don’t know what to do without my friends 😭😭
I love this. I appreciate your content🙇🏾
That part with the parents really hit me hard
Life is so depressing. We’re forced to get old and watch the ones we love get older before us and die. There’s nothing we can do about it. Spending more time with them doesn’t make things any easier either. That’s why I don’t understand why people say to “spend time with your loved ones while you can”. If you’re close with them, It’s probably going to suck even more when you inevitably lose them forever. It’s a lose-lose situation. I’ve genuinely been wondering lately if the 80 or so years of existence is truly worth all the misery, pain, and sadness that most people experience throughout their short lives. Only about 1 percent of all people actually make enough money to live comfortably for their entire lives without any worries. The rest of us are just stressed out and miserable for 99% of our existence. Sometimes I feel like never being born would have been better.

yea bro

Your Profile Picture complements this comment so well.
Welcome back to "Existential Crisis with Birds!", tonight, it's about the crushing despair of the unrelenting flow of time
Entropy had/has/going to arrive(d)
Why did I decide to watch this video. I already deal with pretty bad depression and axiety. I don't need a youtube thumb nail counting down my days.
This made me think of my Father, who is no more. And all of my family who are around, but who we meet rarely because we stay so far away. The important parts of our life which we all somehow take for granted.
Me, a fool: We must be getting to the positive spin any minute now. Annnny minute now. . .
If you have always positive feelings they gonna get normal for you
Realizing that our time is limited and precious *IS* the positive spin. "People live two lives, the second begins when you realize you only have one." - Someone smarter than me.

@@iainmac6272 a catholic father, a evangelical pastor and a rabbi discuss about when a human life starts. The father says it starts when women and man begin to love each other.

Me: So What's The menu today, Is it motivating or deppresing? Kurzgesagt: *Yes*
Just an idea: Maybe you should try to use your original time doing original things and not copying ideas from top comments. how you feel wasting time living other peoples lives?
@@symix. Damn from what i see you're the only one who's mad at this right now. Okay she copied someone's comment, and? Now I'm not gonna say shit like "Oh in the grand scheme of things" nothing will matter, but literally copying a comment does not matt AT ALL.
:DDD same here...
Nope, just depressing. I feel like whatever I do, it'll be the wrong thing. I'm just bad at human-ing. I hate and resent myself.
Showing how long we're going to live in mere circles is... something. Makes you really think about what you're doing with your time.
What a nice, cheery outlook on life! :D
"You can get cancer at age 32" Thanks, just what I needed as a 31 year old to make my day better.
😭😭😭
That usually happens to people that have a family history of getting cancer in their 30’s.
got spinal cancer when i was 17 last year
@@kikipurnell2542 Nope, cancer can happen to anyone and at any age
Goodbye friend
This is the happiest soundtrack for the saddest video, you guys are level 9 torture masters 😂
agree
yes
Oh your here nice!
Oh hey! It’s you!
Hmm. They are german.
This video made me realize how valuable life is. I just saw it now, and it was really eye opening. It made me want to really spend time with my family more since I don't see them very often anymore. Great video!
i'm sad and happy at same time, watch it right now cry a bit. thank you guys.
"Hello Everyone This is Your Daily Dose of Anxiety"- Kurzgesagt probably
