Barry's Economics on Helplessness

Dustin Boston ·

I can't state it as well as Barry's Economics, but this video has a lot to say about "the science of learned helplessness, social tipping points, and why your brain is catastrophically underestimating the power of what you can actually do." Helplessness is the default (that's why doom scrolling is so easy). To experience agency and fight helplessness, do something that makes a change. Even if it's small.
