Word.

It's so fucking true.

truth

Unfortunately in this Era ppl think by simply existing they are valuable.

This is a very good point of view, never look at it like this. Thankyou

Similar to "either choose the pain of discipline or the pain of regret." Very powerful quote.

Sounds like the best life advice you could give someone

Oh yes. Running for me is hard. But not as hard as being in poor health and being unfit would be.

Running gasers…still gives me nightmares during those 2 a days. Getting comfortable with the uncomfortable.

lol, ask Goggins what he thinks about "burning out", just another BS excuse

yeah we all know why you loved it... lmao

@@MegaWorldadventure It can be an excuse. It can also be something with disastrous consequences if ignored. You can find 1 Goggins and I’ll find you thousands of dudes who had heart attacks and other illnesses because they were “alright”. I love Goggins but if part of your mission is to be around for your family you can’t go full Goggins and accomplish that mission.

I’m sure that’s not what they were having them do, I’m sure it’s stuff that can’t be said on any platform. Haha

No it’s wrong.

Read between the lines

It's hard when they actually WANT to " talk" to you, but I doubt you've ever denied a willing woman 👠

As a sorority girl ( about his age) I'd say this accurately describes perfectly 👌

Isn't it though? ☺️

Wanna know something funny? The frontal lobe of the brain is responsible for long term rewards and consequences. ADHD means that is ikmensely underdeveloped, and anyone with adhd is forced to somehow shrink the time horizon of everything they do down to the same day in order to feel anything about the task.

@@BusinessWolf1 I didn’t know this about ADHD, but this sounds about right. But while ADHD is a massive nuisance for those who suffer from it, can you see a benefit in this? For example, ADHD peoples, given that narrow time horizon for rewarding feelings, are incentivised to seek rewards from the imminence of an activity rather than the deferred feelings of gratification from completion. So they’re pushed towards finding pleasure in the moment, and perhaps by extension pushed towards the eternal present, or _eternal now_ .

​​@@117Industries I see where you're coming from, but I think ADHD means impatience is at the core of someone with this condition. Being present requires immense patience and perpetual letting go. I think seeking such short term release only prevents one from being truly present.

@@silverlake973 Okay. I’ll take you at this because I’m no expert in the condition. Although I vaguely remember that impatience is supposed to be at the core of it- according to the Huberman videos I’ve been binging on for some time now. It reminds me of an Eckhart Tolle video I watched too, in which he states that an inability to be truly present and a constant need to escape the present (or to be anywhere else other than the present moment) are both symptoms of a deep dysfunction which affects very many of us right now. And what he said resonated with me. There does seem to be a restlessness within people which is harmful and contagious, and that restlessness seems to be drawing people’s attention _from_ the moment rather than _to_ it. I guess it boils down to the fact that someone can’t be in two places simultaneously. So you’re either present, or not. Thanks for the reply.

Yeeees

Damn bro! That's tough. It seems like your luck is really bad for now. Hope you find the break real soon. All the best.

What state do you live in that you can’t get an hvac job? Where I’m at they practically beg for employees in the majority of the skilled trade sector.

@@DZR-qo2px Everywhere is begging for employees in all the skilled trades, and that trend is going to continue.

Let your self be bored. I was at a similar point and filled my entire day with empty distractions. Try just sitting on the couch for 10 minutes with no distractions and no ruminations of past/anxiety of the future. Just be the vegetable that's in harmony with your life (no judgment or emotion). For me it broke me out of my cycle and a year later I'm back in the groove (down 70 lbs and running 5-10miles a day, taking care of myself, much more productive and happy).

I was looking for this comment. I can relate to this, as someone who suffered from debilitating depression for quite a few years. Honestly you just have to push yourself. Treat getting out of bed and doing basic stuff like it's training for the Olympics. It's OK if it feels like a strain. Let yourself feel proud of anything you accomplish, no matter how small. Yes, go ahead and pat yourself on the back, but keep it in perspective that other people aren't impressed by basic adulting. It's just your own internal reward system. While I give myself praise for little things, I also give myself tough love. I often tell myself to stop being a little beesh, and it works. At one point in time, getting a real job felt like winning a gold medal. Even though that's just the bottom baseline of existence, it was a gold medal to me. But I didn't get there by feeling sorry for myself. Since I've had this job, my mental health has been getting better and better, though I'm still working on certain things in my life. The fact that I actually enjoy what I do, and find fulfillment in it, is really crucial for me. I HATED having stupid jobs, and couldn't keep them for very long, but I don't have to have those jobs anymore. I'm a huge believer in trade schools and career colleges because I've seen so many examples of people turning their lives around by getting a career or trade. And it's so much easier than years of university. A lot less debt too. And you actually make money. (Stop obsessing over "six figures", nobody cares. Just get a real grown-up job and you'll be fine.) Also I think some people need medication, even though there's a lot of stigma attached to that. Wellbutrin saved my life. I often read in the comments that single women are more likely to be on antidepressants, blah blah blah femimism blah blah blah. The data doesn't show that. According to the stats, there's no difference between men and women, or married and never married. (Though it is true that divorced and widowed people are more likely to be on antidepressants.) As a woman I have extra additional stigma attached to me, in regards to mental health or needing treatment. No matter who you are, the world will try to beat you down. Also the Internet is a pretty negative place, and I should probably spend less time on it. It helps to keep in mind that you are in fact surrounded by a-holes (sometimes) and that it's best to not take them too seriously, or care what they think. Usually it's just other people projecting their own misery onto you. Most people "out there" are good people who mean you no harm. If one place really sucks, go somewhere else. Also the sunshine feels nice once you get used to it. :)

Set an alarm and get up on time. Cool, first win of the day. Now, shower and get ready. Cool second win of the day. Now set an alarm for when you have to leave the house. Cool, third win of the day. You get the idea.

@@Aholland1 Exactly! That's how you have to do it. Celebrate each little win. You said it much more succinctly than I did.

Also men have it really easy when it comes to getting ready in the morning. LoL. Literally just shower and put clothes on.

If dudes have to mop and feel like that's the worst shit they've done. I'm worried. But I think he just used it as an example.

I never got why Americans were so obsessed with frats and hazing. Until I realized all these people who graduate from Ivy League schools, become world leaders, and the way they stay on top is by hazing and having dirt on eachother so they stay loyal to one another.

Is is more then moping

@@seansmythe802 oh yeah, they were hungover too, so hard😭

yawn

Sounds like you are making excuses to not take action…..cool

@@johnyang1420 or maybe his life is actually harder than cleaning up a mess you made in your own house

Does it matter...? What choice do you have...? Roll down into the void? I got to admit though, cleaning after the party is... Hard...? A bit funny.

still takes more effort and hard work to build a networth of 100 million dollars, regardless if he came from a privileged background or not, he didn't take any help from his father, do your due diligence correctly

You sound super ridiculous

Yup, dude grew up rich with daddy’s money. Makes money by acting like this guru. Typical online guru

It's hard to come to terms with the tought that there is a love that is so deep and profound, of such immense depth that it requires willingly bearing the suffering of losing a child for the sake of humanity's greater good.

Ugh

​@@user-hz6cn9bh4g Oh lol

I agree. The pathway to less suffering is through suffering… And when you begin to walk down this path; the path of bearing your suffering nobly, and accepting the responsibility to confront that with courage, dignity and truth… the conclusion or the end of that road will always lead you back to Christ... Why? Because the story of the crucifixion is the ultimate expression of that truth brought to its logical conclusion. I mean, If you took on all the responsibility you could take on, and you faced everything you needed to face… What would you be like? Who would you be? and how would the world transform around you? If the partial answer is, well if I do that a little bit, things get a fair bit better. Then the next question might be: well what if you did that completely? It isn’t obvious to me what the upper limit of that is. And when you see people bear their suffering nobly, there is nothing in that but Good… that’s something. And then when you see people take on more responsibility and decide that they’re going to aim up, and confront their suffering honestly and forthrightly; that their lives get better and the lives of people around them get better too. That is why the pathway to less suffering is through suffering. It’s like well, there is suffering. How do you make it worse? You run away. How do you make it better? You confront it. You might say yeah, but it’s suffering. Well yeah it’s there… It exists. But it’s a precondition for life or something like that. And it’s like you have something important to do as well, and you confront it, and that’s the path to transcending it. So Imagine that acceptance of vulnerability and ignorance is the precondition for growth… Imagine that confrontation with the terrible unknown - with its paralyzing manifestations of tragedy and malevolence is necessary to catalyze both wisdom and maturity… Imagine finally, that human consciousness plays some central, and as of yet poorly understood role in the reality of the cosmos; at least as necessary observer. Imagine all of that, then ask yourself: what is the absolute hypothetical limit of human attainment when vulnerability and ignorance are fully and completely accepted? When the unknown is squarely confronted? and when consciousness is given its due at the very center of the world? That’s Christ’s acceptance of the crucifix. That’s his willingness to be betrayed subject to the evil of his closest companions and the state; and his embrace of brokenness and death. It is pure truth that even a small leaving of humility and courage engenders resilience, progress, and growth. It is pure truth that resentful rejection of the price of finite being multiplies suffering endlessly and unnecessarily. What is the ultimate expression of those truths taken to their final conclusion? Who is to say who we are, and what we might be capable of achieving if we develop the courage to accept our terrible fates, live in truth, and stumble uphill? This is the question posed by Christianity in its very essence.

Bullshit

If you want to gain, you have to give.

Also the fact that Alex's intellectually gifted

Yeah but sometimes it's good to take advice from normies. They're teaching you how to be normie.

@@FenwickChick Yeah, this comment is for their brain, not mine. I've taken lots of value from these guys.

@@hhhhippo Fair enough, but their point is that the bar is really low, which is true. Honestly I don't think Chris is all that hot except for the fact that he's ripped. Imagine the same guy except 20 pounds overweight. Some men can still be handsome that way, but I don't think he would be. But I don't mean that in any kind of mean way. He's out of my league regardless. The other guy is also just OK. But again, he's jacked. They're both extroverts who naturally have great social skills, and that might just be a neurological thing.

never ever assume other people experiences, you literally have no idea.

That’s a bit mean.
