There are many problems in the world currently. We are faced with war, political issues, poverty, mental health, economy, etc.

So with all these challenges, what is the the source? Is it social media, is it money, is it competition, is it big companies?

The answer is no.

The real source of all our problems is the human mind. In this video, I share this perspective along with solutions we can take. I hope this resonates with you and that you find it helpful. Enjoy!
