The Spotlight Effect: Curing Social Anxiety with Logic

Описание: "You are performing for an empty theater."

Most of us live in a mental prison called the Spotlight Effect. It is the cognitive bias that convinces us that we are the main character in the movie of life, and that everyone else is the audience, judging our every move.
The truth is much colder, and much more liberating: No one is watching you.
In thisvideo, we use evolutionary biology, behavioral psychology, and philosophy to deconstruct the root causes of Social Anxiety. We analyze the famous "Barry Manilow T-Shirt Experiment," explain why anxiety is actually a form of "Inverted Narcissism," and use the philosophy of Optimistic Nihilism to set you free from the fear of judgment.

🔦 What you will master in this documentary:

✦ The Panopticon of the Mind: Why you feel like you are being watched even when you aren't.
✦ Evolutionary Mismatch: Why your brain treats "awkward silence" like a death threat.
✦ The Manilow Experiment: The data that proves you overestimate your visibility by 50%.
✦ Inverted Narcissism: Why thinking everyone hates you is just as arrogant as thinking everyone loves you.
✦ Sonder: The realization that destroys "Main Character Syndrome."
✦ Optimistic Nihilism: How to use the cosmic scale of the universe to cure shame.
✦ Shame Attacking: The Stoic protocol (used by Cato) to become immune to ridicule.
