  4.  @bp1194  sorry to hear about your struggles. As a teacher, I tell my students, “the only bad experience is the one you don’t learn from.” I’m sure your years weren’t a complete waste, at least that’s my hope. Thanks so much for jumping in the conversation, I’m glad you’re here.
    94
  5. Sorry to hear about the separation. My wife and I have been married for 30+ years as well and just hearing your story crushes me. It sounds like you are handling it as well as one could. Keep keeping on and I wish you all the love in the world.
    56
  6. One of my mentors in my mid twenties told me that and it has stuck with me every since. Thanks for watching and jumping in the conversation
    25
  7. There’s a lot of truth to that statement. Thanks for jumping in.
    21
  8. Wise words from grandpa Victor. The age old, "give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for life." Thank you for adding that to the conversation. All the best

  11. Love it. Vonnegut is one of my favorites

  12. Bobby, YOU my friend are exceptional. Or should I say you made exceptional choices and thus have an exceptional life. I love the fact that you set goals and worked them and look at you now. Kudos to you for what you've accomplished. I too have started a pickleball journey as I ease closer to retirement. Thanks for watching and offering your wisdom
    16
  13. THIS!!
    16
  14. You've lived a lot of life, my friend, and have a lot more to go. I've never met anyone that regretted giving time to family and loved ones. Being a caregiver is a huge role and responsibility...you should be commended for that. Thank you for adding your words of wisdom to this. I greatly appreciate you taking the time to join in the conversation. All the best
    15
  15. Thank you for adding to the conversation. I lived in Okinawa for 6 months as a small boy (age 5) and went back (age 12) as the son of a Navy pilot. I still have very fond memories of the sights and time spent in Japan. Your thoughts on nutrition very much line up with how I am trying to live and eat these days. Thanks for being here

  16. Thankfully he saved me a LONG time ago. Thanks for adding this

  17. Things come and go, but memories last a lifetime. Good for you

  18. I love this. I'm ashamed to admit it, but when I was younger I only cared about me. Now with more years behind me than in front, I'm all about helping others. Thanks for the comment
    9
  19.  @HairyPixels  that’s so very true. In the moment you’re busy doing whatever it is you’re doing. Unfortunately, it’s only in hindsight we realize the other things we could’ve been doing with our time. Thanks so much for your comment and being part of the conversation.

  20. I've never heard the theme park analogy before. I'm stealing that and will be sharing it with my students. What a great way to look at it. Some "rides" are fun, others scary as hell. LOVE THIS. Thank you very much for that
    8
  21. That was the premise of my speech. It was my hope that the graduates chase being a better human just as much, or more than a career. Thanks for watching
    8
  22. Ah yes, the great comforter. His presence is always within. I appreciate you adding this to the conversation.
    8
  23. I'm thankful you're here and willing to jump in the conversation. All the things you mention, I've lived at one time or another. Numbing life doesn't make the tough times easier. Nothing is better that LIVING life on your terms. It's comments like that that prompted me to start this channel. Thank you
    6
  24. You’re not wrong, Marc. It’s daunting for sure. However, you just stay consistent and hope for the best. My goal was never a viral video, but to offer some insight/help to anyone who is open to it. Thanks so much for following along, your kind words, and your willingness to comment. I greatly appreciate it.

  25.  @voiceoftruth9358  thank you for this… earlier this week I lost a dear friend, a few years younger than me, suddenly. Life is to be cherished, every day to be lived, because we really don’t know how many we have left. Thank you so much for being here.
    6
  26. Billy, it sounds like we are "brothers from another mother." What you stated is EXACTLY what I hope for everyone. I am 7 years from retirement and it sounds like you are living exactly how I want to in my retirement. FAMILY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT, aside from Him. Thanks for your time in commenting my friend Peace to you and yours
    6
  27. I’m curious…What’s the meaning of life for you?

  28. Thank you for sharing this. I am not familiar with that chapter. I'll have to check it out. I appreciate you sharing

  30. Absolutely. Thank you for this
    5
  31. Yes!!! All of this!!! Ultimately it’s up to you to find the value in life. Thanks for adding this
    5
  32. Cataloguing life is a great idea. I might have to give that a try to later go back and count my blessings. Thank you for this

  33. Thank you, Simon! Greatly appreciate it on so many levels. Thanks for watching, thanks for commenting, and thanks for being positive. I greatly appreciate you.

  37.  @charliehobson33  having good people close in and of itself gives you a lot of purpose. It’s spending time with those folks, that really gives me a lot of joy. Thanks so much for commenting Charlie.

  40. Glad to hear you found value in it. Best of luck in the new job. I appreciate you being here
    4
  41. Damn that sounds tough. Try to make the best decision NOW and move forward. If for nothing else, the love you have for your kids. I don't pretend to have the answers but inactivity isn't going to solve it either. Praying for you and yours my friend
    4
  42. Tough news. Hang in there my friend. Control the controllables and keep moving forward.
    4
  43.  @toddmoore2615  wow! What a compliment, Todd. That blew me away. Thank you for your service and being there for your fellow man on that fateful day. Folks like you can never get enough thanks for your service to the greater good. Thanks so much for being part of the conversation and being an angel yourself
    4
  44. Replace the negative influence with a positive influence. That’s the best piece of advice I can give you.
    3
  45. That analogy brings it into focus for me. Thank you. I am always trying to learn from others. Thank you for being willing to open up. All the best

  46. Time slows for no one. How the heck am I in my later 50s ALREADY?? Thanks for jumping in the conversation
    3
  47. It's all about perspective and priorities. Would you agree? Thanks for jumping in the conversation with your thoughts

  48. Hey Ali, I was engaged twice before finding Mrs. Right. I've lost a few jobs and even lost my business. LIFE happens, but it also turns around. Keep your head up and keep moving forward. YOU GOT THIS. Separate note...I was in Amsterdam right before new years and LOVED IT. I was there with my flight attendant daughter. Cheers my friend
    3
  49. Thank you so very much for the kind words and especially coming back. I really appreciate it.
    3
  50. Jimson, thank you for being so open and sharing. There's a lot to unpack there and I'll sum it up with this: I have felt most of what you mentioned at different times in my life. Imposter syndrome, "am I happy", "is there more". That's probably why I bounced around in so many different jobs until I landed in teaching and can now impact future generations. One of the reasons I started this YouTube channel was to try to communicate to others that life isn't this simple story we live, but rather one to BE lived and we have the ability to live it chapter by chapter. We can do other things, find other things, discover other things. Get creative in a way that fulfills you. Yes, the "bills of life" have to get paid, but look for something that scratches that itch you feel within you. I greatly appreciate you sharing your thoughts. I'll be checking out your channel

  51. Pretty cool. Thanks for taking time to comment and watch
    3
  52. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and I’m glad your English is getting better. Keep up the good work.
    3
  53. It’s not something that’s taught. I mean, we hear “iron sharpens iron” but on individual level that requires discomfort
    3
  54.  @alanspring8462  thank you kindly Alan. Time will tell, that’s for sure 👊🏼
    3
  55. Thank you VERY MUCH for your comment. Life is a journey for sure, both the positive and negative. It's one HUGE learning experience and we can always change as needed. Sorry to hear about a rough 2013, but it sounds like your well on your way now. I greatly appreciate you jumping in the conversation
    3
  56. With you completely. Experience is definitely the best teacher. Thanks so much for sharing your insight. It is greatly appreciated, my friend.
    3
  57.  @pakmana.k.6662  hahaha… that’s fantastic. You just made my afternoon. You’re awesome!
    3
  58. That is so very true. Count your blessings in every situation and be thankful for what you have no matter how big or small. Thanks so much for the comment.
    3
  59. You’re very welcome. I have a folder like that at school that I keep thank you notes from students over the years. As teachers, we don’t get that many, but when we do, they make a huge impact.
    3
  60. Great question. I have one in return, would you be who you are if you hadn't "gone for it"? It seems you've changed careers from IT to medivac pilot. That's pretty ambitious and should be commended. I'm of the belief that we should "go for it" whether it be careers, relationships, or personally. Thanks so much for watching and jumping in the conversation. I'll be checking out your story
    3
  61. Thanks Jojo...that's much appreciated.

  62. Thanks so much Jackson. Don’t tell anyone, but I used to be a DJ. 😂

  63. Great question

  64.  @rodrigorodrigo7371  I wish I had your foresight at age 16 to be contemplating life. Keep trying to be the best version of yourself you can be, every step of the way. Your time will come, but in the meantime, enjoy every step, everything you do will be a blessing in one way or another. Thank you so much for taking the time to commentand being part of the conversation. It is greatly appreciated.
    3
  65. That is exactly what life is all about in my opinion. Thanks for putting it so succinctly. Your input and thoughts are greatly appreciated.
    3
  66. Ditto

  67. Incredibly!!! 94 is crazy, but if I’m being honest, that’s my goal for later
    3
  68.  @ListaGuilherme  you can’t give what you don’t have. Thanks so much for the comment and watching the video. It’s greatly appreciated

  69. Thanks for being here, watching, and taking time to comment all the way from Pakistan. You’re greatly appreciated.

  70. @ indeed
    3
  71. Thanks for sharing. In my opinion, it's never too late. I became a teacher at 44 and I absolutely love it. In hindsight I should have been doing it my entire life. You don't have to LOVE what you do to make a living, you just have to do it. Look for other work or make a change if you feel you need to. It's your silly brain that is holding you back. Forge your own path and don't be afraid of change...again early 30s is NOT TOO LATE.
    3
  72.  @jeremyloving3620  sorry to hear about this. My wife was about the only thing I didn’t lose in 2008. Life gets tough, but tough people get through it. Thanks for being here and taking time to comment. All the best
    3
  73. Dylan, you are wise beyond your years. Looking back I wish I'd have been as forthright as you are. Keep thriving and thanks for being here
    3
  74. Sorry to hear about all your loss Helen. It’s a cruel reality that sometimes it takes these type of things to make us take stock of what’s really important. It really hit home when I lost my uncle and I saw how it affected my father. Life is short, way too short, but let’s count our blessings every day. Thank you so much Helen for being a blessing and taking the time to comment. It’s much appreciated
    3
  75. Meghan...THANK YOU. I'm a little overwhelmed to be honest. I appreciate you taking the time to reach out. It is MUCH APPRECIATED
    3
  76. @ I had the thought that I’d respond to them all. I could keep up until I couldn’t. Yesterday morning I had to wave the 🏳️. I appreciate the fact that you were here be of the first creators I connected with. I’ll be following and trying your recipes as well 🤤
    3
  77. I love it!! Thanks for being here

  81. Absolutely. Thanks for being here 🙌🏼
    3
  82. John, Thanks for sharing the FIRE acronym. LOVE IT!! I had to restart at age 44 after the 2008 crash and am 7 years from retirement. I'm low key jealous (although you earned it) of you having that freedom now. I appreciate you jumping in and starting this conversation
    3
  83. @ nothing like that at all. In fact, my wife is a melanoma survivor so we are very diligent in our dermatology appointments, etc. etc..
    3
  84. So glad you’re enjoying them. I’m really glad you’re here and taking the time to comment. Thank you very much.

  85.  @firstinstinct420  thank you very much. Will do 🙌🏼
    2
  86. Vit, I was 24 when I finished my undergrad degree. YOU ARE NOT TOO OLD to chase after your goal of becoming an orthopedic surgeon. Yes, it will take time and you might be a couple years older than your counterparts, but if it's your passion/dream it is NEVER too late to start. GO FOR IT young man. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and being part of this conversation
    2
  87.  @toddmoore2615  thanks so much Todd. That’s my goal…to help others before they need it. I appreciate you being here sir!
    2
  88.  @drumster-fire  WOW… that blew me away. I really appreciate your honesty and especially you’re super kind words. I’m so glad you liked it and found value in it. That’s my goal, to try to relate to people and share my experiences. Again, thank you for being here!
    2
  89. You're just getting started. Your 20s are for learning about yourself and finding your way. Keep moving forward, one step at a time. You'll figure it out. Thanks for watching ang being here
    2
  90. YESSSS!!! 👊🏼
    2
  91. It’s on YouTube in our schools channel but the quality is low. It was live streamed because our gymnasium doesn’t hold all the students in our school plus parents for the graduation. Filmed on a iPad with zero thought to quality
    2
  92. Holy Smokes...110? THAT IS AMAZING!! I lost 80, before I realized I wasn't in as good a shape as I thought. Check out Dr. Peter Attia's book OUTLIVE. i listened to it (much bigger fan of the audiobooks) and it changed my life. Very glad you decided to comment and join in the conversation Neil
    2
  93. You know, I've never heard it like that, but that sums it up perfectly. Every little drop, good or bad, fills the bucket of life. THANK YOU FOR THAT!! and thanks for being here
    2
  94. Absolutely…it’s the easy, controllable stuff that we need to get back. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment. I’m glad you’re here.

  95. One of my favorite scenes of all time. #lifeinmovies Thanks for that Jackson!!

  98.  @jaafar-tayar  thanks for the kind words and being here
    2
  99. Great question. A few things: I have an exercise routine to work on me daily My wife and I walk every single evening to reconnect I travel as much as my schedule allows. And of course, I spend some time watching YouTube videos. In fact, that’s where most of my “consumption“ lies these days. Thanks for joining the conversation and asking if offer provoking question.
    2
  100. @ I would love to learn how to play the banjo. Maybe that’ll be something I pick up in retirement. I’m just a handful of years away from that. I appreciate that insight though that’s a good idea. We can keep the body crisp, but if the mind isn’t sharp, what good does it do?
    2
  101.  @rufo  🤣🤣🤣

  102.  @Jorche87  greetings!! Thank you for watching and taking time to comment
    2
  103.  @jimblaszczyk185  thanks so much Jim. That “high school locker” memory is fresh in my mind too. Definitely was not Internet back then, probably a good thing because there’s no evidence… Just memories. Memories that still make me smile. I appreciate you, jumping in the conversation, watching the video, and taking the time to comment. It’s greatly appreciated.
    2
  104. Thanks so much. I really appreciate the kind words Jackson. All the best

    2
  106. Good to have you in the conversation. Noting wrong with a little more love in this world.
    2
  107.  @RobertsActiveRetirement  wise words…I’m guilty of not wanting to disappoint people and saying yes accordingly. 🤦🏼‍♂️. Thanks for the comment Robert!!
    2
  108.  @chrisslater3174  you’re absolutely correct Chris. Two adult children, raised and out of the house. It’s been a good life and you are correct. Reflection has begun. Thanks so much for watching and offering this comment.
    2
  109.  @little_miss_vintage  thank you kindly. Time definitely flies
    2
  110. This is great! I've been exactly where you are a few times. Staying consistent long term was always hard for me until it wasn't. Your attitude of "not settling" will get you there. Thanks for watching and especially commenting!!
    2
  111. Thank you for sharing...I think we all look back with some "ifs and shouldas" but we did the best we could in any given moment. Let's keep moving forward and thriving

  113. Thank you, Robert very much. Thanks for watching and commenting!
    2
  114.  @paulmilakeve  coffee? With the volume I’ve consumed over the years. I think my blood type is now “dark roast”. The best way to start a day! And a little praise and worship to go along… Yes, please!
    2
  115. Amen Paul. It’s like the crabs in a bucket, trying to pull you down.
    2
  116.  @TedvailasMortgageBroker  you’re very welcome. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to offer some insight.
    2
  117. You're not wrong. I am in no way an expert or prophet, just sharing my thoughts on a life well lived. Thanks for commenting
    2
  118. William is still young my friend. Get out there and find some fun. You're not too old to find your path. Keep moving forward and stay positive
    2
  119. Your wife is a wise woman! Once we got consistent we realized what we cook is just as good as the restaurants. Also, like you said, there are other things to do besides eating out. Thanks for sharing this!!
    2
  120.  @PradeepThakur-mr6ti  thank you very much for sharing this, I’m gonna have to check out that book. I greatly appreciate it and you took the time.
    2
  121. Thanks so much for the encouraging words. It’s greatly appreciated! Just trying to get better and spread some positivity. I appreciate you jumping in the conversation.
    2
  122. I don't disagree with this!! Thank you
    2
  123. Hang in there Noah. Change is always difficult, especially relocating. You’ll get through it, just try to stay as positive as you can. That always makes it better for me. I appreciate the kind words and you taking the time to watch.
    2
  124. Not sure how things are with your wife, but mine is my best friend and we are LIVING life to it's fullest as time allows. Thanks for sharing your insight
    2
  125. Wow! Thanks for that Todd. I’m definitely gonna go check out “the go giver”, that sounds like my kind of book. I appreciate the recommendation and especially the comment. Appreciate you being here.
    2
  126. Your Aunt was a wise woman. Thank you for sharing that Charles
    2
  127. Eloquently put. I really appreciate you taking time to share that
    2
  128. @ excellent point. Thank you for dropping that in the conversation. I appreciate you very much.
    2
  129. Eric....85lbs? That's freaking amazing. We ain't getting any younger and health is vital. I'm glad I figured that out NOW and not 20 years from now. Thanks for being here my friend
    2
  130. Thank you very much. I appreciate you being here and taking time to comment.
    2
  131.  @Eddyjayjay  adhd? Probably, although when I was younger, they didn’t have an answer for it. Teaching by far, is the most rewarding. Being able to influence the next generation is daunting/challenging/exciting all in one.
    2
  132. Thank you kindly. Glad you found value in them

  133.  @rhuman8672  thank you for watching

  135. Thank you for the kindness Martin. It's greatly received. All the best

  136. It will and when it does, the ROI will be a lot higher than bartending. Hang in there
    2
  137. I will definitely check out your channel. I'm interested
    2
  138. It sounds like you have a great plan. I'm so excited for you. Good luck with your channel, and please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Your method is YOUR method. We’re all here to learn from one another!
    2
  139.  @electricmommy  10 years? That’s fantastic. What an amazing accomplishment, kudos to you for that. Bring open to listening is key in my opinion. Thanks for sharing Meghan!!
    2
  140. I resemble that remark. The gift of hindsight is wonderful, but as the plaque in my classroom says, "the only time to look back is to see how far we've come" Given another chance, my priorities back then would have been much different as well. I appreciate you jumping in and commenting
    2
  141. Amen 🙏🏼
    2
  142.  @MiguelV-dp6wp  thank you sir. It was definitely a tough thing to hear. I appreciate the time you spent to comment and watched the video.

  146.  @ClaraWsfreedom  thanks so much Clara 🙏🏼🙏🏼

  149.  @TimErnstTurnAroundFitness  welcome back Tim. How’s it going?

  150. Thank you very much. I share that in many of my videos, but mostly single ingredient foods, focus on animal proteins, and move everyday
    2
  151.  @toddmoore2615  you couldn’t be more right Todd. The tough times are what shapes us.
    2
  152. Thanks so much Paul. WE can do it.

  153.  @Cauldron-  love it. Thanks for commenting. Positivity sure makes life easier in my opinion.

  162. He saved me back in January 1992 and I've never looked back. I'm far from perfect, but doing my best to be a good steward. Thanks for sharing Steve
    2
  163. It’s always easier to not do it than it is to do it. But that’s just your brain trying to keep you from what you’re trying to accomplish.
    2
  164. Great point Jackson! Show me the 5 people you spend the most time with and I'll tell you where you'll be in 5 years. HAHAHA crack cocaine !! I fell into that during the pandemic but I've recovered.

  165. HA! You're very welcome

  166. DJI Osmo Pocket 3. It’s pretty user friendly.
    2
  167. The Truth is the truth. I spend every morning in the Word. It grounds me and starts my day in a positive light. Thanks for your encouraging words
    2
  168. Hey Robert, rather deep philosophical statement there. I like it because it makes me think. I appreciate you adding us to the conversation and more importantly, being here.
    2
  169. That's where I was after 5 years of marathon training. Skinnier but not strong. Rucking is something I decided to add to my evening dog walks in 2025. Glad to hear of your success with it. Keep keeping on my friend
    2
  170. DO IT!!! You'll find your audience. That is definitely fear rearing it's ugly head, GO FOR IT!!
    2
  171. I agree with you. I suppose, I wasn't clear enough in saying that critics aren't a necessary part of ones life. I too am too old for the drama, that's for sure
    2
  172.  @stampedlemon  control which you can control, your attitude in your actions. I’ve been there, dead broke! The difference was I was 15 years older than you in my mid 40s. Talk about despair, I was there. Keep moving forward, keep doing what you can do and keep your chin up. Find work, any work. It doesn’t matter what just move forward. Life is hard sometimes, it feels like it’s crushing you, but you’ll get through it if you keep moving. Sorry to hear about all your struggles, genuinely I am. But I believe you can get out of it.
    2
  173. @ absolutely. All the best and keep me posted please
    2
  174. @ hang in there! Your challenges only make you stronger. One day you’ll look back at all you’ve done and smile knowing you made it through
    2
  175. Self-respect itself is a tremendous thing to acquire. David, thanks so much for adding that and most importantly, taking the time to watch and comment.
    2
  176. Action cures it all. Thanks so much for adding this to the conversation!!
    2
  177. You’re very welcome. It’s easy to get caught up in life and forget to count your blessings. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and Watch the video.
    2
  178. I know, right? 😂 I'm stoked about it too! CRAZY!!!
    2
  179.  @Cauldron-  good strategy. Most folks are “winging it”. It’s my hope that more folks become aware of what they eat. I appreciate you commenting
    2
  180. @ 🙌🏼🙌🏼
    2
  181. So glad it was helpful. More than 50% of the time the video topics are topics that I need to hear.
    2
  182. Thank you very much!! DJI Pocket Osmo 3 is my camera
    2
  183. Oooh I really like that. Selflessness > selfishness. It’s the one thing I love about the comment section, is folks like you adding things like that that make me think. Thank you so much!
    2
  184. You’re very welcome
    2
  185.  @Survivr2Thrivr13  thanks so much DP. All across the board, we n ed folks to take responsibility for their actions. It’s NOT always someone else’s fault. The sooner we get to this the sooner everyone moves forward. Thanks so much for your comment, very thoughtful.
    2
  186. I’m not a huge powder fan either. I used to be, but not so much anymore. Keep it as clean as possible. In my opinion thanks for commenting that.
    2
  187. Thank you very much. I seen her videos as well, she’s very impactful and a wonderful human.
    2
  188. So very true!!! ALL OF THIS!! You are guaranteed to miss 100% of the shots you do not take. The Pickleball community is so awesome. The wife and I have played just a couple times, but everyone treated us just as you described. Thanks for adding your story
    2
  189. Much appreciated Jackson 👊🏼
    2
  190. It's true - sometimes the more we have, the more things we have to worry about! #biggieprobs Thanks for bringing here Paul 👊🏼
    2
  191. Very deep and very thoughtful. Thank you very much for adding that, Mika. Tremendous!
    2
  192.  @Survivr2Thrivr13  a gratitude journal is clutch for counting blessings and keeping your eyes on what’s important. Thanks for the kind words and being part of the conversation
    2
  193.  @yoshiglubschi  👊🏼👊🏼
    2
  194. Interesting. Can you make others change?
    2
  195. You’re very fortunate to have that level of self awareness Todd. Kudos to you. I so appreciate all your thoughts and comments
    2
  196. Well said. That's probably why I had so many "careers" until I found one that stuck. And JC is the secret. I appreciate you joining the conversation and sharing your thoughts
    2
  197. Glad ot have you Noella, all the way on the other side of the world. YouTube makes the globe a much smaller place. I appreciate your comment and you being here
    2
  198.  @tristankeller136  thank you
    2
  199.  @sjonny-depp  glad to hear taking ownership of the situations. It’s not always easy to stick up for yourself, but it’s necessary sometimes. Way to be strong, way to move on, most importantly, way to recognize that you don’t belong there. I’m looking forward to hearing about your successes moving forward. Thanks so much for taking the time to add such a thoughtful comment to the conversation. It is greatly appreciated.
    2
  200. 👊🏼
    2
  201. Wow...thank you for your kind words. When I started this, I was hopeful I could reach just one person and hearing this made my morning. Keep getting after it my friend. Life is awesome!!
    2
  202. Yes and Amen
    2
  203.  @edc9626  self acceptance, and respect… I think those are included in self-love, don’t you?
    2
  204. @ dang Ed! The human animal can be an evil creature, distorted by less than people. Saddened to hear of your struggles with a less than desirable person. To be honest, I didn’t even know what anhedonia was and had to look it up. Hang in there, my friend. I appreciate you sharing so openly. I am always looking to learn.
    2
  205. 60 pounds? Wow!!! my wife and I are very. Keto-ish. Cutting out all the junk makes a huge difference. Nice work, Paul.
    2
  206. God bless YOU!! Time only goes by faster as we age. Keep keeping on my friend
    2
  207. Thanks so much for jumping on board. I appreciate you checking out several videos. There's a real lack of positivity and gratitude these days which was a main reason I decided to start this channel. I greatly appreciate your support
    2
  208. I've considered becoming a personal trainer, but time is the challenge with that one. An accountability partner is definitely helpful. Thanks for your input and I would have never guess 60...you don't look it!!
    2
  209. I am not on Spotify or have a podcast...yet? Time will tell. Thanks for watching
    2
  210. YES!!! Thank you for adding that. I love it.
    2
  211. You are awesome for being here! You’re definitely appreciated
    2
  212. Well, said my friend, very well said.
    2
  213.  @edgars2654  absolutely your prerogative my friend. After all it’s YOUR life to live. Live it to the fullest as you see fit 👊🏼
    2
  214. GREAT INSIGHT ANNE!!! That's what I'm hoping to accomplish with this channel - to wake people up to the potential that life has to offer. I know it's an uphill battle, but I've made HUGE strides in the last year and I hope to bring as many people along with me as I can. Thank you for your thoughtful response and adding it to the conversation
    2
  215. In hindsight, it probably should be. Thanks so much for offering that. All the best.
    2
  216. I'll add it to my list. Thanks for the suggestion and the comment. So glad to see you again
    2
  217. Jorge, it sounds like you are doing what you love, even through the struggles. The road less traveled is never easy and I can say without a doubt, after living the "zombie life" I'm not sure that's the way to go either. I don't have the answers my friend, but I encourage you to follow your heart and keep pushing...YOU GOT THIS!!
    2
  218. DJI Osmo Pocket 3
    2
  219. Much appreciate the support Susan. Thank you thank you so much
    2
  220. Great question. Hers how I view it. “Unsolicited advice is criticism” is a quote I learned years ago. If you’re asking someone they should be honest and open. You should also be willing to hear it, since you asked for it. Sometimes it stings, but it helps you grow. So, advice I’m a fan of. Criticism, not as much.
    2
  221. Very kind words Philip. Thank you very much for that, for being here, and joining the conversation. You are greatly appreciated.
    2
  222. Thank you for this. You're freaking awesome
    2
  223. Appreciate that Jackson. I'm just getting started and want to keep it going as long as I can. I love being creative and this is one heck of a place for that. Thank you for your continued support
    2
  224. Thank you very much and YES life is a journey full of lessons to learn from
    2
  225. Thanks so much Samy...I appreciate you being here
    2
  226. Couldn't agree more. Everyone is the master of his or her own destiny, that's for sure.
    2
  227. Hang in there. I'm glad YOU'RE here!!
    2
  228. Thank you for that Julia. God Bless you
    2
  229. K.G. thank you for sharing your insight. It's crazy how young hubris leads us to think we have all the time in the world. I am right there with you, trying to help the younger folks LIVE every moment. I am encouraged that many (even in these comments) have the foresight to begin self reflection and finding importance in their lives. All the best
    2
  230.  @DSNCB919  this happens a lot when you’re younger, cause you just don’t think you’ve arrived/earned it. I felt the same way. Thanks so much for sharing.
    2
  231. So much encouragement. THANK YOU!! Thank goodness you aren't looking for a performance...lol...I'm terrible at it. Thanks so much for being here
    2
  232. Right back atcha
    2
  233.  @Lelepianist_1893  that’s very kind. But I love being out in the chilly weather. I actually prefer it over the heat to be honest. I heard a long time ago. There is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing choices.
    2
  234. Excellent point Henry. Setting a good example and living a good life is a great way to exist. Thanks so much for that
    2
  235. @ other than time, I don’t think there’s any greater asset than your health. This really warms my heart to hear your story of continued growth and dedicating yourself to being a healthy husband. Keep up the Good work, my friend.
    2
  236. You are very welcome. Thank you for commenting and watching
    2
  237. Great insight. It sounds to me, the field you worked in requires a certain set of skills that makes the cream rise to the top in order to solve problems of that magnitude. It took me several years to "find myself", ultimately finding my place as a teacher. In this role I am able to pour into the next generation of problem solvers. I really value your input on this. It's always good to learn from the experiences of others. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and most importantly, your time
    2
  238. Thank YOU Paul. Keep moving my friend. Great work!
    2
  239. BOBBY!!! That's it! Action beats inaction EVERY DAY. Thank you for adding this to the conversation. You're awesome
    2
  240. You’re very welcome. Glad you found value in it. I appreciate you taking time to comment.
    2
  241. Thank you for the offer. A life well lived has it's ups and downs
    2
  242. You're very welcome Max. Thanks for taking time to comment, much appreciated
    2
  243.  @oneuniversestudios-6206  thanks so much for sharing that Stuie. It’s greatly appreciated. I wish I had your perspective when I was 38 years old. I was in the midst of my many careers and didn’t see much further than the end of my nose. I really appreciate you watching and taking the time to add such a thoughtful comment.
    2
  244. I agree with all of this. I do my best to eat single ingredient food (generally healthier) but mix things up so my body/metabolism stays in check. Thank you for adding this as I am always open to information and learning, much appreciated
    2
  245. I’m in…lol. Thanks for being here
    2
  246. Happy early birthday Robert. Like a fine wine, we keep getting better with age don’t we? Thanks for the comments and for being part of the community. It is greatly appreciated, my friend.
    2
  247. What’s your exercise look like? Maybe take a walk or two per day just to get the blood flowing and endorphins pumping. That and might “tire you out” to help with sleeping
    2
  248. Thanks so much! I am really enjoying the process. Learning everyday. I see you having fun over there Paul
    2
  249.  @paulmilakeve  thanks so much for following along Paul. I’ve learned a lot in 14 short days. Looking forward to following your challenge. By the way, your life is short video is spot on.
    2
  250. I think we’re all guilty of it. To a certain degree we want to be helpful and please people. The challenges finding the right time/way to say no. Mohamed thank you so much for commenting and for watching the video. It is greatly appreciated.
    2
  251. That's funny...fitting given the topic. Thanks for putting a smile on my face
    2
  252. You know what's funny? Literally asked Siri "Who is a famous critic?" Roger Ebert, the movie critic, was the only answer. LOL....but being a movie "critic" I ignored it as "At the Movies" was a regular watch when I was a teenager.
    2
  253. @ thanks so much Greg. I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to comment and interact. It makes it more enjoyable for sure.
    2
  254. Thank you very much!!
    2
  255. That is so true. I am learning to use my energy wisely. There is definitely people trying to pull you down, like the crabs in a bucket. Discernment is key, thanks for adding that, very much.
    2
  256. @ sorry to hear about your mom. I know it’s been a while, but this time of year it can’t be any easier. Thanks so much for your kind words and for taking time to watch the video. It’s much appreciated.
    2
  257. I remember when I first heard my wife was pregnant...talk about shock!! You WILL be enough...hang in there and doyour best. Your baby is meant for YOU and your wife so you both are perfect for it. Embrace every second, it passes so quickly. Thanks for being open and honest in your comment
    2
  258.  @Captain-kungfoo  thank so much for watching and commenting. I greatly appreciate it.
    2
  259. I agree with this completely. Live one's life for YOU, no one else (outside loved ones of course) Thanks for adding your thoughts
    2
  260. Self reflection and bring both tears of joy and tears of sorrow. The challenge is separating the two and LIVING. Thanks for asking and being here
    2
  261. You're very welcome. Thanks for watching from across the globe. It's greatly appreciated
    2
  262. Most folks are afraid to ask for fear of sounding inadequate or uninformed. I think we need to reframe that as inquisitive. The more we know, the more informed we are. Thanks for commenting my friend
    2
  263. Noella, I completely understand. The economy crashing in 2008 took all I had saved (which wasn't that much) just to keep a roof over our heads...VERY stressful. My wife and I have been working doubly hard to try and catch up and after talking to a financial planner last year we are in a much better place. Are we rich? NO, but when the time comes (age 65) we will have enough to live comfortably. Learning doesn't stress me out. It's a challenge for sure, but challenge only makes us stronger...that's the outlook I have. Thanks so much for being here and taking the time to comment again. I really appreciate it
    2
  264. @ hahaha…ya think? Happiness comes from a much deeper place for me, but I won’t swear 50k either 🤣🤣
    2
  265. It's so unfair how addictive they are. Hang in there, you can do it. Thanks for being here and commenting
    2
  266. We have to take control of what we do and say. It’s our lives to live, no one else’s. I’m glad to hear you’re doing well and thriving in your new ventures. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment
    2
  267.  @FloZ96  sorry to hear about your Grandpa, that’s tough. It sounds to me like you’re on your way. The struggle for me sometimes is my own brain, I don’t think I’m doing enough. But once I figured out that doing something is better than doing nothing that eased my anxiety quite a bit. I’m glad you found me, I’m glad you’re here, and I look forward to hearing from you more.
    2
  268. @ do it! Everybody has an audience, they just have to find you. And your story is worth being told.
    2
  269. Jackson, thank you very much. I was really surprised at all the “soft skills” that folks these days are missing. I appreciate you bringing involved
    2
  270. SPOT ON!! Thank you for adding this. Wise words
    2
  271. Thanks my friend. I’m just trying to ask/answer the questions of life. I’m no expert, just offering my thoughts. I appreciate you being here. You got this!!
    2
  272. Very valid point Kevin. Both my parents are still alive, 85 and 90. And they cherish every single moment. Thanks so much for adding your insight here.
    2
  273. Thanks so much Leena. I appreciate you being here
    2
  274. Thanks so much. What is the best part?
    2
  275. @ could not agree more. Victim mentality only keeps us down and lowers our expectations of life
    2
  276. @ I wouldn’t call you negative Johnny. Everyone has their own life and thus their own perspective. Is anyone any more correct than others? That’s a huge philosophical question and I’m not sure there is a right answer. Keep doing you buddy, I appreciate you being here.
    2
  277. Do the best you can and give yourself grace, that's for sure. Thanks for always being here and commenting, my friend
    2
  278. Pretty much! The gist was "Who you are is more important that What you do" It wasnt at the high school graduation, but the one I teach at. I was voted Teacher of the Year, as part of that you get to give the commencement speech. I love the fact you are doing your best to help the next generation. Thanks for joining in the conversation
    2
  279. Kids are notorious for that. Lol. Thanks for being here Paul
    2
  280. Buffalos through the storm is one of my favorite analogies. TAKE IT HEAD ON AND KEEP MOVING!! Thank you for adding that. You are AWESOME
    2
  281. Mo, thank you for adding this! It's a great reminder of why we are here. Lord knows, I can't take myself too seriously...lol. I appreciate you brother!!
    2
  282. Thanks Tim. You are not wrong by any stretch. That is the great commission for sure. Thanks for adding that
    2
  283. I read a chapter every morning. It’s my foundation. I appreciate your input and suggestion. The good book is too good to not be in it at least daily.
    2
  284. Thanks Peter for being here and commenting
    2
  285. Hundos...YOU DA MAN!!! I greatly appreciate the advice my friend. SOLID on your part. Kudos to you!!

  288. Thank you kindly. It’s been a heck of a journey. Thanks for watching

  290.  @Challenge_Jackson  👊🏼👊🏼 thank you sir

  291. YESSSS,...memories last!! Money comes a goes. Thank you for adding your insight
    2
  292. Extend yourself grace and love yourself. HUGE for peace of mind. Thanks for taking time to watch and comment
    2
  293. There's A LOT of truth in what you said. I was blessed with a few mentors in my early years that taught me things like, "If you want to be different, you have to do things differently" and "observe the masses and do the opposite". I didn't always follow those tidbits, but they've stuck with me. It's now at this stage of my life, I'm hopeful that sharing my experiences others can learn from both the good and bad. Thanks for offering your insight and openness to the conversation
    2
  294. Thanks so much for your kind words. I really appreciate it. I live in the Carolinas.
    2
  295. Hang on Zar....it IS worth it. Life has ups and downs, good and bad, but ultimately I think it should be celebrated Thanks for reaching out
    2
  296. 👊🏼👊🏼

  297. Glad you enjoyed the video!
    2
  298. @ love that addition. Thank you

  299. It's been with me for nearly 40 years. Everytime I question why I'm doing something, I fall back on that. Appreciate your comments
    2
  300. Thank you so much for being here
    2
  301. Thank you
    2
  302. Excellent question. The one person that is ALWAYS worth your time is YOU. Live and love for YOU and you'll attract people that want to be around you. My 2 cents. Thanks for asking such an interesting question and being part of this.
    2
  303. You're VERY welcome. Glad to hear it was received as intended. So thankful you are along for the journey. Thanks for commenting
    2
  304. Thanks for being here and adding to the conversation. Much appreciated fellow "senior dude"

    2
  306. You're very welcome. Thanks for watching
    2
  307.  @TravelingDan20  yes sir! I do it every day. Water temp is at 43° and I’m in there between four and five minutes. Ask me any other questions you’d like.

  312. That’s great Kenny. Best of luck in your studies. You’re still young enough to make a change, kudos to you. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment, it means a lot.
    2
  313. He is mine as well. Thank you for sharing Kevin
    2
  314. Sorry to hear of your health struggles Sebastian. It sounds like your doing your best to LIVE life though and that should be commended. Thanks for jumping in the conversation
    2
  315. Thanks for adding that Stu. As I’ve gotten older, my outlook and perspective has changed. I’m nowhere near close to death, but I’m looking to take advantage of every single moment moving forward. Thanks so much for the comment, my friend.
    2
  316. You’re very welcome Rico. You have to take solace in the little victories in order to keep going in the direction you wanna go. Life is never easy, but action makes it easier. Keep rocking my friend.

  319.  @RelapseKing  and that makes for a wonderful life, Michael . Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment my friend.
    2
  320. Thanks for your feedback, but I’m happy if the video helped even just one person.
    2
  321. Thank you for sharing that. Glad to hear you're continuing to learn and grow. Sounds like you have a wonderful life my friend
    2
  322. I love this. That little tidbit is life in a nutshell. Thanks so much for sharing that.

  323. Thank you very much for that comment. Hang in there! Life has its ebbs and flows… good times and bad. I appreciate you being here more than you know.
    2
  324. THANK YOU....40? Why not up the ante and go for 50? Let's live it up until then. Thanks for jumping into the conversation
    2
  325.  @fifa3183  great questions. I do need to address that, thanks for the suggestion. Hang in there my friend
    2
  326. In that sense, critique is vital. Thank you for your kind words and support
    2
  327. You’re absolutely right. What I was trying to convey was that your reality is your truth.
    2
  328. Thank you for watching. It's very humbling. Also, thanks for commenting
    2
  329. Yes, yes and yes.
    2
  330.  @theasianjaywalker4455  thanks so much for commenting. It’s my hope that this’ll be a place my great grandkids can get to know their “pops”. Your Banff video is stunning. How long did you visit?
    2
  331. Thank you for your kind words. I’m glad to hear this is helping others, that’s my hope. You’re an amazing human for always taking time to comment
    2

    2

    2
  334.  @BeeYu-id3iy  yes, I study that in a philosophy class in college. I hadn’t thought about it since. Thank you for adding that.
    2
  335.  @deg5329  being an electrician is a phenomenal trade/career. You don’t have to love the work necessarily, it’s a means to build a life. You can find joy and excitement outside of your work obligation. 19 and you’re thinking every future is a step in the right direction, a huge step in the right direction. Awesome to have you here. I appreciate you watching the video.
    2
  336. LFG Steve. Get back on the horse so to speak. I'll join you my friend. Thanks so much for the kind words

  339.  @lukeuseforce  right there with you, Luke. Ultimately I think what I’m trying to say is do you! After all is your life to live. Thanks for jumping into the conversation.

  340.  @ignacioportillo2390  thank YOU for your kind words. I’m impressed, learning an instrument? And the accordion!! FANTASTIC 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 What type of songs do you hope to create?

  341. You’re not alone in this. Everyone has a “crisis moment” when goals aren’t met. The best thing I can tell you is, try, fail, and adjust. Keep moving forward, keep resetting your goals, and keeps striving. Take action… That will always get you through the “crises”
    2
  342. Glad to hear another Garmin user finding value in it, to a point. I like all mine has to offer, but only as a reference. It's almost comical sometimes when I bust my butt in a workout only to get the dreaded "Unproductive"...LOL
    2
  343. Patrix… so glad you’re here! I really appreciate it and I’m really blown away to be honest. Thanks so much!

  344. Hundos...great observation and THANK YOU for the suggestion. Sometimes trying to be cute isn't the answer. I appreciate you

  345. Glad you agree. Thanks for being here and commenting

  346. @ belief in one’s self, trust in one’s self, extend yourself grace in knowing you’re not perfect,
    2
  347. Oh, I never “want“ to be in the discomfort zone, but rather I realize I need to be there to be a better version of myself. Ricky, keep it up, that’s life in a nutshell, my friend!

  357.  @TheADHDFitnessGuy  wise words. I think with the benefit of a little hindsight, intentionality, and a teensy bit of foresight, life is pretty fantastic. Thanks again for commenting
    2
  358.  @voiceoftruth9358  I wish I could retire in two years. I’ve got seven more to go and I cannot wait if I’m being honest. It doesn’t matter how you get there, as long as you get there so glad to hear you’re loving it and thanks for joining in on the ride. I look forward to many more conversations.
    2
  359. Summers, Christmases… Times with your family. When you break it down like that, it is a little unsettling. I appreciate you being here and making a comment.
    2
  360. YESS!!
    2
  361. You are very welcome. That was my hope, to open some eyes to the fact that loving oneself will lead to a better place for all of us. Thanks for watching and commenting

  372. Maybe because I'm a high school carpentry teacher? Glad it crossed your path thought. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment
    2
  373. @ of course. Glad you found value in it. Thanks for sticking around.
    2
  374. Boy that’s a loaded question. Marginal cost versus marginal benefit. I mean, I do like to help people, but I don’t wanna feel as though I’m being taken advantage of. Simply put, a lot of times I trust my instincts. Every time I go against my gut feeling it always seems like it doesn’t work out. I know that’s probably not much of an answer, but it’s as honest as I can be.
    2
  375. Wow, that's a HUGE compliment. You are too kind but thank you very much! I really appreciate that
    2
  376. YES!!! ALL OF THIS! I've been at the weights for about 7 months consistently and I'm shocked at how freaking good I feel now. If my idiot younger self would have been smarter, I'd be a lot further along. Thanks for being here my friend
    2
  377. Thank you for the kind words. I definitely don't have it all figured out, but with a little hindsight I've been able to find things that work for me and bring me peace. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment. I greatly appreciate it

  397.  @paulmilakeve  so very true Paul. Life is a never ending journey
    2
  398.  @Cauldron-  “notes” is a very handy feature, I use it a lot. Trackers are a good tool, but definitely not the best all end all
    2
  399. Thank you. It's all we can control. Thanks for being here
    2
  400. ​​⁠ get that thing started! If you keep waiting, it’ll be 2026 before you know it. I’m interested to see what you start. Thanks for being here and following along.

  412.  @physiobyamina  life is the never-ending quest of “finding ourselves” keep moving forward, learn from our experiences, and try to smile a lot. That’s what keeps me motivated. Keep being awesome for your family.
    2
  413.  @jaketnash  hey thanks Jake for the honest assessment. I was just trying something different. I’m not a huge fan either, but it was worth a shot. I appreciate you being here, being part of the community and taking the time to comment. I greatly appreciate you.
    2
  414. Finding the best in others is a great way to live. Your life is definitely yours to be lived. Glad you are doing so well. Thanks for sharing
    2
  415. I felt all of this. An adjective one of my friends/coworkers used in my ladder 20s for me was “abrasive“. Not the most positive word by any means. I’ve had to learn how to temper myself and be less abrasive if you will. It’s not a process or something that happens overnight, it takes time. You sound like a great human, just keep working on you and remember sometimes people receive what you say and do differently than you intend. That’s on them not on you. Thanks so much for the comment and sharing your story.
    2
  416. My pleasure! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment
    2
  417.  @TheCluelessAcademy  as one who has two adult children, my best piece of advice is to raise your kid to be a good citizen. They will find their place in the society and within their generation if they’ve got good values and good moral character. What I know of you, they have a great father.
    2
  418.  @cosmicwisdomcollective  well stated. I think keeping time in check is a universal theme that everyone should consider. Thank you for adding this.
    2
  419. Thanks for jumping in the conversation Stephane. Do the dreams fade or do we adjust them? Let's make the most of the time and lessons we've learned.
    2
  420. All of this!! Especially the let it go part. Life is hard and we have to just learn to live with it. Keeping a positive attitude and realizing we’re not perfect our big! Thanks so much for being here and being part of the conversation.
    2
  421. I think every human is a different animal and we need to find what works best for our bodies. I don't think there is one fool proof system, thus I also consume a lot of content in the nutrition/wellness sphere. I'm so glad you found a path that works well for you and for sharing that here
    2
  422. You are correct about the adults, that’s for sure. In this case, “adult“ is not an age only is it? Appreciate the comment and more importantly you being here.
    2
  423. Thank you kindly. Thanks for being here and commenting
    2

    2
  426. @ I feel that…ALL OF THAT! I try to focus on what I can control, my attitude and actions each and every day. I can’t control the future, only who I am and what I do. If I’m doing my best, honestly my best, I have no regrets or fears. Hang in there my friend. I hope this helps
    2
  427. You’ve got a good point. We have a lot to offer. A lot of the “new kids” find fascinating. Appreciate you being here and always sharing.
    2
  428. Patrick, you are so right. It is a vicious cycle but balance can be found. It takes time and effort but it can be achieved. Thank you for such a well thought out comment and being part of the conversation. All the best

  429. Mastering emotions is an on going journey. Thank you for adding that to the conversation

  430. You definitely got all the highlights. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. It’s my pleasure making them for you. Thanks for taking the time to come as well away from Turkey
    2
  431. Hang in there, life is tough at times and you’ll question yourself. But believe in yourself and keep moving forward.
    2
  432. That’s pretty much what I told myself, “I’ve got haters, I’ve arrived”. It’s all on how you look at things right? Thanks for being here and taking the time to comment.
    2
  433. Glad you got some value from it. THanks for being here and taking time to comment

    2
  438. Thank you

  439.  @toddmoore2615  goes back to what you can control. YOUR attitude and your actions. Agree with you Todd, respect is earned, not freely given. Thanks so much for your input 👊🏼
    2
  440. Thank you kindly
    2
  441. Todd, I heard the other day that if you wanna find a perfect marriage, take two imperfect people and put them together. That’s definitely my wife and I and it sounds like you and yours as well. Life is great! Thanks for taking the time to comment.
    2
  442. @ amen…my wife completes me. Filling in the areas I’m weakest. It’s a two way street for sure.
    2
  443.  @dallincandland  thanks so much Dallin. Sounds like you’re moving in the right direction. Everybody’s on a different course and a different pace. Keep chasing your dreams, acquiring those skills acquiring, and what you seek will be found. All the best my friend.

  450. WOW...50lbs is no joke. Congrats on that. I really appreciate your support and taking time to comment
    2
  451.  @giulianof676  sorry to hear about your girlfriend Giuliano. That’s tough. I had many in my younger days, they were all learning experiences until I found my wife. Yours is out there and as you said, never give up. All the best my friend.
    2
  452. A mix is good, in my opinion. I do cardio 2 x per week and lift heavy stuff 4 x. It's about finding what works for you and sticking to it. Keep up the good work
    2
  453. I did miss health. Thank you very much for adding that to the conversation. I talk a lot about both physical and mental health/mindset in some of my other videos.
    2
  454. Serve probably. Because it takes a little effort to get outside your comfort zone. Appreciate you being here Paul and as usual commenting.
    2
  455. Realize that you inquisitive nature is a blessing. You WANT to know the answers and most folks welcome the questions. It benefits everyone. Thanks for being here and commenting

    2
  458. Glad to hear from you Jon. We’ve all got things we’d like to have done differently. Sounds like you’re living even larger now, in my opinion. Thanks for being here
    2
  459. ​​⁠ wow Kevin, there’s a lot of truth in what you said. A heck of a lot of truth! It’s sort of a do as I say don’t do as I do society at the moment and that absolutely sucks. I can see where people would have the attitude of there’s nothing I can do. I really appreciate the discussion, genuinely I do. I believe we can all learn and grow from one another. I appreciate your willingness to share.
    2
  460. VERY WELL SAID...my struggle was the fact that I wasn't self aware enough in my 20s to "get wise". it's only happened recently that I have figured out who I am and what I want for the rest of my life. Thank you for sharing and jumping in the conversation
    2
  461. All those different jobs were by choice. I always made sure the family was taken care of, but I moved around< i think, out of boredom and not finding meaning in what I was doing. Now that I'm a teacher, I'm making the least I ever have, but life is good. Thanks for adding your insight
    2
  462.  @hagler7  that really touched something in me Glyn. Thank you for sharing that. I too am a runner, although not as much as I used to be. The times don’t matter, the pain is the same. The fact that you’re still up and after it at 64 should be commended. Keep being awesome and enjoy your espresso as I sit here, enjoying my 1st cup as well. All the best, my friend.
    2
  463. GREAT!!! Thanks for adding that. Once again, thanks for being an integral part of this community. I greatly appreciate your time and willingness to comment

  471. You're not wrong about that

  483. Pepsi was my daily goal before I kicked it. It was NOT easy 😂
    2
  484. I know that feeling all too well. We were created to move and it seems the less I do that, the more my body rebels. Thanks for jumping in the conversation
    2
  485. Thanks so much Todd. Staying humble is my goal. I appreciate you being here
    2
  486. 100%...the human brain baffles me. Why isn't the default mode cheerleader? SMH. Thanks for taking time to comment
    2
  487. Joel, I know exactly what you mean. My wife would not buy the stuff and then I would complain that we didn’t have anything “sweet to eat“ so she would buy the stuff. Then I would get mad at her for buying the stuff. She finally said I don’t wanna hear you complain anymore. But if I’m being honest, I started making progress and she wanted to join me, since then it’s been a lot easier. I feel your pain, brother! Thanks so much for taking the time to share and be open. A lot of us can relate.
    2
  488. Wow, thank you Imran. Quite a compliment that does not fall on deaf ears. I greatly appreciate that

  491. Many depend on the guest or topic but here are a few of my go to: Mel Robbins Modern Wisdom - Chris Williamson Rich Roll Podcast Diary of a CEO
    2
  492. Me too! I’m introverted as well, so a lot of this is foreign
    2
  493.  @davidhultberg5590  I can’t for the life of me figure out why our brain has such a difficult time accepting compliments. It’s almost like a cruel joke that we try to tear ourselves down in every situation. That’s awesome that you’re so successful and people respect you in such a difficult line of work. Kudos to you.
    2
  494. Thanks Joe…I didn’t start lifting anything until about a year ago…trying to make up for lost time. It feels great but I’ve got a long way to go. Where in Florida are you?
    2
  495. I agree. It's a tough battle, but it's a battle worth fighting! I’m still trying to figure out why our brain expects perfection, when we know deep down it’s not 100% attainable. The default mode is killer. I appreciate you being here Todd and as usual taking time to comment. You’re the man.

  496. Hesed, your comments are always so impactful. Thank you for taking time to add them, it is much appreciated

  498. MCM was my "worst". I remember sulking about it and a friend of mine said, "HEY..you finished 26.2 miles. No matter the time, that is a feat in itself. You should be proud." That changed my mindset. Finishing 3 is HUGE. Congratulations on being a Three-Timer. All the best Heidi!!

  512.  @ilyich.guatemala  hang in there! Nobody ever promised us that would be easy. I’ve had a lot of hard times in my life, and they don’t get easier, but living with them/working through them does. What distracts you from the fears?

  543. It's so true. Self love first, then we can choose to share that love with others. Thanks for jumping in Cody. I greatly appreciate it
    1
  544. It takes A LOT of time to change the negative programming we've built for ourselves. Keep doing your best, and recognize the thoughts are just that...thoughts. Glad you're here

  554. You have a very healthy perspective, in my opinion. Self respect is a great tool to have. Sounds like you and your family are living as good a life as you can. Thanks for sharing
    1
  555.  @WillpowerCinema  it’s the one thing we can’t get a refund on that’s for sure. You only get one shot at it, make the best of it. Thanks so much for commenting and being here
    1
  556. WOW!! There's an interesting perspective. Thank you for sharing that. Here's a question for you, if time is a diminishing commodity then your "time account" is getting "poorer" by the day correct? However, if we spend said time, creating lasting memories...
    1
  557. Yes I do! Homemade face balm, made from beef tallow, avocado oil, and essential oils. Sounds kooky, but the proof is in the pudding. Thanks for asking
    1
  558.  @tylfen9760 nothing else. I just use body wash/shampoo to clean my face a couple times/week. I’ll be honest, eating clean, essentially zero processed foods, does wonders for your skin.

  559.  @cosmopolitanbay9508  100%. Thank you for adding that, it’s much appreciated.

  565. Very deep and philosophical. I don't think anyone of us has all the answers, but I'm pretty sure life is meant to be lived, not just survived. As for what happens to my memory, my existence in the eyes of others once I'm gone...who knows. Until then, I'll just be here trying to do my best for the greater good. Thanks for your thoughts

  566. Lemuel, THANK YOU for your kind words. That warms my heart and makes every word I speak worthwhile. I greatly appreciate you

  573. Sorry to hear about your struggle. Failing, doesn't make you a failure. The only bad experience is the one we don't learn from. Keep keepin on my friend. YOU GOT THIS
    1
  574. That’s relatable for sure. Life can be a grind at times. Are there areas with software/tech that offer solid work with less stress? My wife works as an IT project manager so. Completely get how you feel. Friends to spend time with to “de-stress”??
    1
  575. You nailed it! The time we have is precious

  589.  @calmingtunes8788  I would say focus on what you can control, your attitude and your actions. Count your blessings and do the best you can to put a smile on your face. It ain’t easy, but it can be done. This too shall pass.

  618. Amen Kent!! Day after day work towards being a better YOU. Thank you so much for sharing and keep crushing life my friend
    1
  619. Very interesting thoughts and opinions. I agree with much of what you said. But doesn’t it come down to the fact that we are all vastly different humans, coming from vastly different backgrounds, and thus living vastly different lives. I think that’s literally what makes the world go round. No one person is greater than next, nor one life any better. Would you agree?
    1
  620. I like the way you think Alan

  648.  @RDR1456  thank you so much for your comment and there is a certain amount of truth from that. However, in my many years of life and especially the last 12 or so in teaching, I’ve realized that I have a lot of thoughts to share. Thank you for watching anyway, and being willing to comment.

  718. That is the case for some, absolutely. But just like life itself, it's different for some. I've been married for 30+ years to the same incredible woman (who was a German exchange student btw) and life has been far from perfect, but it's been perfect for us.

  729. Honestly? Start working on reprogramming your thought process. You are uniquely YOU! There is no one else like you and you were made that way for a purpose. Embrace that fact. I’m not saying it’s gonna be easy because you’ve had years of negative programming.

  819. That was me. I used to use "I ran today, so I've earned it" as an excuse. Sugars and carbs kept me on the roller coaster of glucose spikes and crashes. Keep moving and try to cut back, if you can. Thanks for joining the conversation

  853. Thanks so much for sharing your experience and thoughts. That’s what I’m hoping to do is give folks the opportunity to reflect and possibly learn from us “old folks”
    1
  854. So you quote two of my favorites. The 3 Stooges and Mr. Dangerfield himself. Apparently this video brought to like minded nincompoops together for a reason. hahaha. Thanks for throwing that in the mix, much appreciated

  875. I agree Paul, 100%. The "details" of life are just that...details. Nothing worth losing sleep over. Great comment and love that you took the time to add it. Thanks so much

  879. It's a rabbit hole if you chose it to be. How about love oneself and extend yourself grace because you aren't perfect? I am anything but perfect. I'm just a guy doing to do his part for the greater good and choosing to see ANY accomplishment as a victory.

  898.  @amitavahalder  I hear you, we all are to an extent. But do we just accept it or try to put the pieces back together?
    1

  900. Glad to hear you got some value in it. As a high school teacher I’m doing all I can to help the younger ones. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
    1
  901. Nobody said you can't be happy. My point was everyone's "comfort zone" is there's and they are "right" to like it there. I was also talking to some who aren't self aware enough to realize that perhaps their "comfort zone" might be what's keeping them from their happiness. I love the way you think and offer comment. Iron sharpens iron, my friend

  905. A lot to unpack there in your comment Jestem. That saying is true, but often times folks find jobs that they become passionate about and then it no longer feels like work (to a certain degred). I've learned that the "work" is always evolving and staying flexible enough to grow with it always helps. Glad to have a "younger" one with perspective jumping into the conversation. Thanks for watching and commenting

  926. Amen my friend

  927. I wasn't very clear on that point. I am currently a teacher and I was voted our school's Teacher of the Year (I don't like to brag per se) so I omitted that. One of the responsibilities of the TOY is the key note speaker at the mid year graduation. You were correct though. I graduated in 1985...whew that hurt to type
    1
  928. Very astute observation on the "right here" part. If I'm being completely honest, that snuck up on me and I wasn't expecting it. Reflecting on it, I think it was because I am at a place now that I value EVERYTHING in my life and I am truly happy. That hasn't always been the case. Thank you very much for your kind words. As a teacher I am doing my best to try and prepare my students for the "real world" outside the confines of the school building as they have NO IDEA how challenging it is. Thanks for being here and part of the conversation

  958. Thank you for adding to the conversation. I felt this, having hernia surgery 15 years ago, I went through a bit of the same experience. While medication helped it sure can mess with your body. Glad to hear your doing better and wish you the best. I'm hopeful grad school works out for you.

  969. Chatan, that's the type of comment I hoped for. What I wouldn't give to be 29 with the same thought process you have. Life is meant to be lived and loved with those that mean the most to you. Keep doing your best, stop and admire the beauty around you, and give yourself the ability to grow. I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such a thoughtful comment

  970. @EinWortEinWeg thanks for your thought and being willing to jump in the conversation

  971. Yeah, that’s definitely a whole other challenge. I can’t imagine the anguish that goes along with that. Thank you for adding that to the conversation though and I appreciate your kind words.

  972.  @Dylan.Johnson  enjoy every moment, especially with your little one. Mine are 24 & 26…no clue how they got that old so quickly

  973. Thanks so much for subscribing. It means the world! I sold mostly commercial chemicals for a family run business out of Memphis Tennessee. Currently I teach high school carpentry. Yes, I’m a woodshop teacher and I absolutely love it. Thanks for asking.

  974.  @BissellMapleFarm  it’s very true. We need more entrepreneur/business owners.

  975.  @richardkautz2947  YES!!! self-awareness is huge! Sometimes we get so busy doing, we don’t see where we’re going. Well, stated my friend. Thank you very much.

  981. Great question. I think the struggle will always be there. I even mention I still deal with it, but the voice isn't as loud as it once was. Nowadays when the "struggles" hit, I lean into them knowing that it's just my chimpanzee brain trying to keep me down. My Gorilla brain takes over to quell the little monkey inside me

  991. Thank you very much for your comment. I too was a tradesman (framer) for many years before I was a remodeling contractor. I currently teach Carpentry to the next generation. Tradesmen are the backbone of a healthy society, in my opinion. I'm glad you're here!!
    1
  992. I agree the comfort zone has made us softer than previous generations. However, Is this cage you mention one that we put ourselves in? If so, can’t we get out at any time?

  996.  @swimfit57  I’m sure it brings your rear comfort knowing they’re smiling down on you. Sorry to hear they’re gone, but at least they’re very much WITH you.
    1
  997. Great question. First of all, I would do is ask what they mean by their comment? In an attempt to become better at my job, I would ask how they suggest I get better? If they are genuine in their critique and want you to succeed, I'd hope they could offer help. If they are unable, it would make me wonder about their sincerity. Secondly, I would reflect on what they said and critique myself. I'm a firm believer in doing my best to get better everyday. Am I doing that? I hope that answers your question. Thank you for asking
    1
  998. That’s very kind of you! I really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment. That makes it worthwhile. Greatly appreciate it.

  1012. Hey, thanks so much for your insight. I look at it as a hobby not a career. Much in the same way some might look at pickleballers, or tennis players, or (insert your favorite hobby here).
    1
  1013. I feel you. Money is not worth sacrificing your quality of life, in my opinion. When I was fresh out of school I used to tell myself, "I'll never be happy unless I'm making $100K or more." What a misconception that was. Keep moving forward and looking inward...you'll find your flow when you least expect it. I greatly appreciate you sharing and willingness to be open.
    1
  1014. Thanks Emily! Glad you’re here

  1017.  @OfficialMoneyMindset02  amen to that! The education system needs a paradigm shift in my opinion to teach kids. What’s really important

  1019. Thank you very much for your kind words, Shannon. I’m really glad you found me, and intern I found you. All the best.

  1020. I would agree with that. Not sure if it’s more confidence or having less “F’s“ to give.

I’m glad you’re here.

  1024. Oh Pamela, what a great question. I’ve learned that anxiety is trying to control the future. We only have the ability to control the “right now.” trying to predict and/or change the future can’t help but make us anxious. That’s for, I lean into it. I try to do things pretty regularly that are outside my comfort zone. That discomfort creates self belief that helps Remove fear. I thought about doing a fitness routine video and your comment might just bring it to pass. Thank you very much for taking the time to comment and watching my videos. I greatly appreciate you.

  1034.  @blakebarsalou257  welcome to the conversation, Blake. Our own brains are our worst enemy, trying to tear us down and keep us from our greatness. Glad to hear you’re going back to school and open to make it a change. You’ll never regret it. Thanks so much for jumping in the comments, my friend.

  1035. Well, it's an option, for sure. One I embraced for nearly 40 years.
    1
  1036.  @LevelUpBooster-2024 ​​⁠it absolutely was and two months in I was sidelined with “runners knee”. Partly to do with the added stress, but mostly because I was so excited about feeling good, I did too much too soon. Lesson learned.

  1037. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement
    1
  1038. Absolutely

  1039. Whole foods definitely taste better now that I've gotten rid of the UPFs, that's for sure. We do place too much emphasis on doing things around food, without a doubt. Thanks for sharing

  1045.  @dougdaniel9196  thank you so much for sharing all of that. It is greatly received. Just like the great commission that I received in 1992. I am with you, my friend and will be forever.

  1057. It really is that simple. I’m not sure why the human animal complicates in so much.
    1
  1058. Wow DP...Thanks for the kind words. I think with a few years under our belt and some perspective to look back on we value our youth, probably more than we should. You are right though, there is no "right time". Glad my message resonated with you. Thanks for taking the time to comment and join the conversation.
    1
  1059. Prayer definitely works. I'll be praying for you and your little girl

  1063. Thanks for the comment Andy. I subbed your channel...good luck with it! As far as watching your time...good luck. It comes and goes so quickly all we can do is be as intentional as the moment allows and live our best with as little regret for "lost time" as possible. I greatly appreciate you jumping in the conversation
    1
  1064.  @callanhutchison1871  rewrite the story in your brain. It’s not easy, but you need to start telling yourself that you love yourself. Believe it or not whatever you say your brain soaks up. It’s the most complex computer system ever. The challenge with it is it can talk back to you and you need to ignore that voice.
    1
  1065. Debbie, I know exactly how you feel. Friends and family can be cruel sometimes, but ultimately we do what makes us happy. If you’re so inclined, I addressed this fair topic in another video about critics. Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I greatly appreciate you.

  1066. David, you are very welcome. That warms my heart my friend. Thanks for coming back and taking time to comment

  1067.  @jamesdriskill5784  James, I posted my first video in October and had no idea what I was doing, or did I have any direction at all. But I heard a YouTuber say “just start”. You’ll find your niche, you’ll find your voice. You just have to get going and let it ride in my opinion.

  1070. Change is never easy when you’re on your own, but you can’t do it. If I’m being honest, it was a lot easier when my wife got on board. I made progress without her, but it was far from linear and took a lot longer.

  1088.  @wranian  I agree with that. Anger and frustration can be a huge motivator. That’s definitely where I was eight years ago before I started getting my butt in shape. I was pissed and ready to make a change. Thanks for your insight and for being here.

  1100. Of course. Thanks for watching

    1
  1192.  @winthorpe2560  I don’t disagree with you, Dave. Most people spend 90% of their time thinking about themselves. I don’t think that’s a bad thing, if they’re thinking about how to approve themselves. But as you mentioned, most folks are selfish in their thinking. Sad but true. Thank you so much for adding this, great insight.
    1
  1193. Great question. Extend yourself grace and realize that while perfection might be the goal, can you REALLY be perfect? Waiting for the "perfect time" is just a way your brain uses to keep you from moving forward. Action cures all. Take action to the best of your ability (no it won't be perfect) and strive to get better day after day. That's how I keep moving. Thank you for your though provoking question. All the best
    1
  1194. "Life" and all its worries can definitely be blinding, there is now doubt. I appreciate your analogy and its relatable for sure. Thanks for taking the time to drop in with this

    1
  1219. Excellent points. Do we blindly accept everything we hear? You answered my point with “if you can find provable answers…”. My point was there’s A LOT of clickbait/misinformation/untruths that we need to sort through to find answers to what’s relevant to our lives. I appreciate your thoughts very much. Thank you
    1
  1220. @ you’re absolutely correct. Most folks, I don’t want to say are lazy, but they don’t wanna seek truth. I genuinely appreciate your comments, I like dialogue and I like learning. I appreciate you taking time to add clarity.

    1
  1223. You're human. I hate the fact that our brains are our own worst enemy. Give yourself some grace, recognize you're not perfect, and do your best. YOU ARE WORTHY!!
    1
  1224. Yes indeed Jordan. Our minds can be our biggest asset or liability. It's how we harness it that makes the difference. Congrats on giving up all your vices. Caffeine is the only one I still cherish.

  1259. Interesting perspective. However, there are plenty of lawyers and engineers that lack. Also, financial independence is relative too, isn't it?

  1260.  @alanspring8462  thanks so much Alan 🙌🏼. Cold therapy brings me a lot of peace as well. It’s not fun, but the feeling afterwards is revolutionary

  1298. That’s exactly what I meant about. “more powerful yeses”. It takes a balance that’s for sure. Alford thanks so much for your comment. I greatly appreciate it.
    1
  1299. Steve, thanks for jumping in. I'll do my best... 1) What questions did you ask yourself when you were thinking of launching a YouTube channel? - Why would anyone listen to me? - Who would my audience be? - Do I really have anything to add to anyone's life? - Do I have time? (2) Have you asked yourself any additional questions after your subscriber count started inflecting higher? - How is this happening? - Do I deserve this kind of attention? - Am I prepared to handle this? - What now? (3) What have you found to be the most effective structure of questions to generate the most insightful answers or conversation, either from yourself or others? - What did you mean by that? - Can you tell me why you believe what you say? - What is your understanding of the topic? The questions in response to 1 & 2 are the typical "mind games' we all deal with. Imposter syndrome, am I worthy, etc. As for #3, I am genuinely curious about the opinions of others and how they came to have their belief in something. Did they come across it after reading a headline, or did they read the entire article/essay/book? Or even better, after reading/hearing one thing did they do a deep dive to find corroborating sources to further heighten their understanding/belief? I know that was a long response, but the best way I thought to address your questions. THANK YOU for asking. All the best

  1309. It is vastly different in other countries, that's for sure.
