I don’t think a lot of people realize how much just exerting yourself or getting yourself dirty outside makes you think clearly and rids all of the fog from overstimulation. Thanks Dwayne your chats are always super insightful
Yes I agree I’m a gardener and love my job. Went to college and uni and studied on computers, got a part time job as a gardener just to earn a little money and never looked back could never work in a computer job or inside now that I’ve worked outdoors
@@stoneythegamer Fs man I do brick and paver work on patios/sidewalks etc and just being in the sunlight and the raw air picking up bricks and setting them down, wheelbarrowing and getting the dust on me gets me feeling great
I'm agnostic but if God does exist then I believe you are doing His work, sir! Thank you for the wisdom you bestow on myself and others. I wish you and your family good health.
Damnn son of the greatest quotes ever "when you sweat you sweat out more than just the physical toxins out of your body, you'll sweat the emotional toxins out and the mental toxins out, just as well"
@@neonfroot why don't they? Is it because they are not a man, but a momas boy? I had a tough Italian dad. If you got out line he woul let you have it. Any one that beats their wife is an insure boy and has penis problems. There is no excuse for beating your wife PERIOD.
Theo Von said one time “you’re not anxious, you just have work to do” or something along those lines. It’s been one of the best ways to describe my feelings of anxiety I’ve come across. Also, Thank you for not putting your son on prescriptions, in my personal experience they only suppress the true issue and makes it worse over time. Peace and Love y’all
As a woman on ADHD medication I'm glad to hear someone addressing the fact that high energy levels in boys are normal, not a symptom of some medical condition. It's time we let boys be boys again, so that our men will be men again. Now excuse this tomboy in a skirt while I continue to clean all the windows in the house ;)
I was in fourth grade in 1963. My class was full of boys with lots of energy. The teacher would have those antsy boys run around the outside of that building as fast as they could, as many times as they could multiple times a day in order to be able to teach them something. It worked. LOL. Great advice.
I co teach severe special ed, but I get a kid every now and then that really doesn’t need my class - they’ve just gotta move! I have them pick up the lunches or “run as fast as you can to check the mailbox”! when they’ve got the wiggles. If more administrators that teachers have always realized that kids can listen if you let them move, we’d have far less kiddos struggling.
Funny story about hosing off saddle blankets. Not only on farcical level of her thinking she should soak them - but if she’d been working the horse hard it makes sense to occasionally rinse off the sweat. So woman in story could well have run her horses hard and been washing off some sweat.
As an ADHD child swim team was my saving grace. By high school I was swimming three miles, biking ten more and walking everywhere - made me a great focused student. Now as I age and work long sedentary days in front of a computer - I’ve got the attention span of a gnat. Need for physicality applies to us older folks we’ll.
When you train the body, you can train the mind. When you train the mind, you can train the body, again. When you train the body, you can train the mind, again. When you train the body and mind, the spirit grows.
Dwayne, this video was absolutely spot on! I used to be very active, but now physical disabilities make that nearly impossible for me and I think I'm on the verge of going insane. I'm suffering from anxiety and other issues that I know would go away if I could just get out and do things again. You were absolutely right about boys. They belong outside. They need to get dirty and sweaty and tired. They don't need Ridalin, they need fresh air and sunlight and physical activity and adventure. Real adventure, not the kind of preprogrammed junk that comes from a video game. These overprotective helicopter parents keep them restricted almost like prisoners. When I used to ride my bike or drive through the neighborhood where I grew up, kids were everywhere outside, especially in the summer. Now, I drive through my neighborhood on a beautiful summer day and the streets and lawns are empty. I don't see a single kid. The whole country needs to see this video. Please don't ever stop putting these types of messages out there.
Look up a Tai Chi class for your ability (chair if necessary). Don't pay attention to the "chi" stuff. Just do the motions being as relaxed and balanced and smooth as possible. Your mind will eventually relax and your body will "work" just trying to do things slow and in complete control. Good luck.
Hi Dwayne, I’m a 26 year old young women. And as I’m growing and going through life the more I’m being gravitated towards country living. Your wisdom is so valuable, I wish so bad I had a grandpa like you. Thank you so much for your content! The seed is growing in my mind to work towards country living. Great channel
Oh, yea! The world, and so many in it, are on fire. When I need common sense, and just kindness, not to mention downright animosity towards me I get sometimes, I listen to Mr. Dwayne’s common sense, and I hear him talking with ME! I have no more than I would say five people who are truly kind-hearted to me, most are just average, kind or polite in passing, but there are some who are on my ‘team’ (work/family) who should humbly examine the way they treat certain people. Ask yourself humbly, the way you treat me, do you think I would rather be around you or Mr. Dwayne with his peace and kind logic? @catvvoman ❤, I will be 57 tomorrow! 😉🙌🏼
Dwayne your talks are always so meaningful and impactful and are genuinely powerful! You help so many people all across the world sir and we thank you! 🤙🏾🖤
I just found your channel and want you to know I have loved watching you and your wife so much,thank you for everything you’re teaching our young men n girls,God Bless you,!! Keep up all you’re doing,
Dwayne, this one has to be in your TOP 10 without a doubt! I'm a lot older than you but you remind me so much of my grandad. He was a great man and his philosophy was the same as yours for teaching your horses, your boys (and for him the same with his hounds and cur dogs). The neat thing was he was always right there leading the way. It was not uncommon for our shirts to be almost solid white with salt at the end of the day from working the farm and hay fields - then we had to take care of the chores before supper! Thank you Dwayne this is a keeper!!!
Robert Brown here. My son and I attended Dry Creek Wrangler School when it was in TN. Dwayne has it going on! I go to the gym 3 times a week and huffing and puffing when exiting. It helps keep me young. I listen to Dwayne quite often and generally agree with all he says. He is a very good communicator. By the way I’m 71 years old. He is around 120 in wisdom and insight.
Sheridan Wyoming here, you are right on. Horses are a lifestyle, not a hobby! A commitment! We forgot to teach this to the younger generation. Very sad, but true. It is going to be a hard one to fix.
I agree we all naturally need to be moving more. Why are depression and anxiety through the roof? Not enough activity. I took a 2 hour walk yesterday, with a few stops to do errands along the way. Slept so peaceful last night. Nothing to loose by getting up and moving around.
I babied my horse for a long time, not much hard work. Then I had a girl at the barn who wanted to ride him occasionally and she really rode him ! Sometimes I would wince at how much she asked of him…well this girl is now moving on to another place and I’m quite sad, because my horse was a much happier horse with her level of riding ! I also feel like a bond would form anyway when you spend a lot of time in the saddle with your horse and take care of your horse. It’s just a natural progression of things. So I have resolved to work my horse more, for his benefit and mine !
Since seeing you smoking a cigar, I wanted to try the Partagas Maduro that you smoke. I was smoking cigars for over 31 years. A few months ago, I quit smoking cigars because it's so expensive in California. The Tobacco Tax here is 60%!! I used to buy boxes of cigars and stored them in a End Table sized Humidor. I won the Humidor in a raffle years ago. It can hold 25 boxes of cigars and can keep the humidity at 70% automatically. Now, I want to try the Partagas Maduro. I was lucky enough to find that cigar at Total Wine. I can't wait to try it. Thank you so, so much, Dewayne!! Keep up the great work!! I appreciate your thoughts and wisdom.
I'm 30 and I'm grateful I grew up spending a lot of time outdoors helping my dad with yard work, as well as biking, skateboarding, and playing basketball. Now I live in a big city apartment with no yard, not even a patio. The only word for it is depressing. Thankfully I took up running 3 years ago. That's what keeps me sane. And even more thankfully, I'm moving out of this city in a few weeks. Thanks for the video and keep up the good work.
I went from milking cows and training horses back in Mexico to being a software engineer now. I coudn't agree more with the wisdom you are sharing on this video
Dwayne that’s the best thing I’ve ever heard for straighten up somebody’s head. That’s the problem these days kids and I had to work they were never taught it just give them a pill they’ll be fine. Dumbest thing I’ve ever heard anybody do
I live in Florida and work in a warehouse at the age of 42. The summer time here is so much more physically exhausting than winter. Love the challenge as i get older keeps me sweaty.
That’s cool I build patios with my dad in the summer in Minnesota, a lot of days above 90, we’re out in the sun and it’s sticky outside. Love how hard it makes me work
@@LukeN3 man I'm over here down south i was just joking with some guys on site about how nice and cool it'd be if we were working up in Minnesota 😂😂 we laid brick in 105 last week. can't imagine Florida or Arizona. I've done Ohio summers, they're a lil better
Thank you, Dwayne! After COVID lockdown, I found myself tired and unmotivated. Come to learn, I just needed to get back in the gym and do more around our 80acre farm in MN. Who’d have thought that I would feel more energetic and accomplished AFTER a long day repairing fence lines, lifting weights and doing yard work. This lesson hit home. Keep it up with these invaluable videos!!
I came to this video a bit late but just wanted to say a couple things: Your commentary on not needing an emotional connection with your horse is more refreshing than you realize. I grew up riding, breaking, and breeding horses and was constantly made to feel (always by other women) that I was somehow heartless for putting forth the notion that a professional, not an emotional, bond was required for what we did. Hearing someone actually acknowledge this makes me feel good. So thank you. Also, people severely underestimate the importance of tiring one's self out. My husband and I do every single thing ourselves, we hit the gym 5x a week, we mountain bike, and dirt bike. We always joke that we're never "refreshed" after a weekend physically, but mentally we are at absolute serenity because of how active we are. We have no children yet, but will within the next 2 years, and we fully intend on raising them like you stated. Thank you for your wise words.
I'm 26, when I was 8 I was put on Ritalin and later was taken up to Concerta. The best way to describe the experience is this. It's like taking a concert speaker and throwing wet blankets on it to dull the sound until it's at a level to suit a classroom. Concert speakers aren't designed for classrooms they're designed for stadiums but schools don't see it that way. Sit down, stay still, shut up, and study 8+ hours a day. Things are better now, jiu-jitsu and weights have been really good for me. Personally, I intend on keeping my kids away from meds.
Dwayne, I just came across your channel and wanted to reach out and just say thanks for the good ol’ fashioned talk. I appreciate you reaching out to the young guys. I believe they are in desperate need of guidance, but have so few places to find it. I’m not a youngster, but even I enjoy the chats. It feels like we are sitting together and just chewing the fat. I don’t even mind not being able to put in my two cents.😂 It’s very clear that GOD has brought you to this place. I will spread your channel as much as I can in hopes that others can sit down for a chat! GOD bless and see you along the trail!
Again very wise words from you Dwayne👍I really enjoy your videos and thoughts . I dont have a clue on horses, enjoy hearing about it, but I´ve come to the same conclusions and thoughts about life, raising kids and relations among people. I just really enjoy watching your videos, thanks Dwayne, you are the man 💪
Good news! I’m talking my little brother hiking tomorrow. First time I’ve been in years, and something I’ve needed for a while now. I’ve missed the woods. Great vid and great advice as always.
My "wood pile" is a drum kit, and 43 years after I began playing, I think I owe my mother a word of thanks. I owe my old neighbours a word of apology, for all the noise they put up with. Keep your "gums flapping", sir. Food for thought.
I had a European bloodline GSD that was always anxious and wanted to herd children. Put him on a good 5 mile run on the trail and he was a whole different animal afterwards
Not falling back on prescriptions for your boy was the right choice. My Dr. prescribed me Adderall for ADHD when I was 19. It did help for about a year, but it changed who I was. It almost numbed me, I just wasn't excited about anything anymore. My parents told me I shouldn't have got on it to begin with, and after two years I really wish I had of listened to them from the start. Stopping Adderall was actually incredibly unpleasant, but man am I glad I did. Regular physical activity has been a godsend for me ever since. It keeps me sharp.
So many problems with anxiety would go away if we just have an active lifestyle where we feel that real rest after exertion because we need it. Too much inactivity is a very bad thing.
I really loved this video dry creek wrangler school! I do agree on that you do not have/need to bond with your horse your horse needs to take you seriously in order to do that they have to associate you with working than loved this video
These vids keep me afloat. Get physical. That's what a man needs. Always. Working an office job I just now realised how true that is. Too bad it had to take an anxiety breakdown to get the point across. Get tired, get outside, get your hands scratched and hard. Greetings from central Europe! Your wisdom reaches far!
I’m 15 I’m probaly the most physically active kid you meet but I bawl my eyes out in the gym and play it off as something in my eye. I’m missing something besides physical activity. What could that mission thing be?
@@Jake-lc4ohHi Jake, I'm afraid I can't give you a straight advice. I'm twice your age and far from perfect. I don't know you or your life or the circumstances that make you feel that way. There is almost always more than one answer and there is almost always more than one cause. I would say if you are active and healthy, try diving deep and figure out what exactly makes you feel like shit. A little internal analysis. Then act on it. Don't lose hope and keep at it. Everything gets better with time. A couple years from now you will look back, facepalm and laugh about things you are mad about today.
One of my favorite new channels to listen to while smoking my cigar. I started smoking cigars on my first deployment to keep my mind right and to decompress. Gives me time to think and re motivate myself in an otherwise shitty situation.
i live in an urban environment and found that through bouldering in a gym not only is it super fun and challenging but also incredibly tiring which is one of my favourite parts of it, seeing how far i can push my body (and the skin of my hands) before i’m too tired to keep going
Dwayne I’ve had customers for a long time. You don’t bond with them you build relationships with them. Strictly business. Pretty simple formula is work well for me for years. Awesome video brother.👍👍👍
Everytime Dwayne says good morning, or good afternoon i always say it back. in public people get confused but after a year of watching him I feel like it has become a habit
It doesn’t matter how often we train our horse or how hard we train our horse, if we do not work them to the point that they get tired, we are wasting our time.
I agree with what your saying about the power of excersize. I believe that with depression, anxiety, anger ect. excersize does not tire you and into not caring, but it is rewarding to your body and re sets your emotional state. Like what you said about sweating out the toxins. Thank you for sharing your wisdom
I aleyas hate mowing my grass. One of my least favorite things to do. Especially because I can’t listen to music. But then when I start doing doing it, I love it. I think to myself and mentally vent and just have conversations with myself and reflect. It’s always, always something I DO end up enjoying and I always wish I could mow more.
My first job at 13 was on a ranch throwing hay and cleaning horse stalls. We would take customers for rides. You’re absolutely right, you don’t need to bond with a well trained/worked horse. The horse is just doing a job. I’m 45 now and still figuring this life thing out. 😂great video!
Thank you for your message. I couldn't agree more. I grew up a hose drinking country boy. Living life wide open. Now watching my son drinking out of the hose Living his life ide open washing up in the creek at the end of the day. Because he wants to not Because he has to. We both are so tired at the end of each day we can hardly get to bed. Just the way it should be.
Dewayne you are spot on with the fact that people need to get tired and totally exhausted and put in a hard day's work it will fix allot of people and their problems thanks for your insight
Good sleep is one of the other major benefits of tuckering yourself out physically every day, in addition to what he said about physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual benefits.
Dewayne, you are absolutely right. I've told my wife, if someone is depressed, there is no amount of pain they are feeling compared to walking 20 minutes on a stair stepping machine. I have to remind myself of that at times. Love your talks. I'm smoking a Punch Corojo listening this evening, wishing you the best from East TN.
Thank you!! You’re content helps my whole family in ways I couldn’t even begin to explain. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!!! Our son is 3 and full of life. I “work” him daily for hours on end until he gets this look of pure joy and satisfaction on his face. And if I’m being honest, he works me twice as hard hahaha just as it should be!
Your chats, never disappointed. I damaged my thigh muscle & its really hampered my activities & i definitely tell difference, at 71 ,its slow healing, but getting there, physically & mentally. Being able to enjoy this Perdumo Habano, coffee ,under stars & your chats help ALOT. God Bless
This is huge. Thankfully, I am good at running myself till I’m tired. And I personally need to find more time to rest so I can focus some on what’s going on in my mind. And not a sit-on-the-couch type of rest, but a very intentionally time with God type of rest. Thank you for affirming that working and moving till you can’t any longer works. I am not a very reactive person when I am too tired for any of it. Thank you for your videos and topics.
That fly built a bond with you, he was playing around jumping on the camera and then you're hat. We should check em for intelligence again, just in case.
I was a problematic child. Lots of energy and never thought about consequences until after I messed up. My parents tried Ritalin, grounding me for months at a time, screaming at me, threatening to give me up, taking 2x4 across my rear end, etc. finally in my junior year of high school they gave up. That same semester I started attending an afternoon class at another school, and I would rollerblade 15+ miles a day Monday-Friday. Wouldn’t you know it, but I was able to calm down, do my work, and stay out of trouble. Instead of being locked in a room only being allowed to to come out for school or cleaning the house, I was exerting myself for a few hours a day rollerblading between campuses. I really flourished when they finally gave up. Exertion is great to zap that excess energy, and I plan on using this when I have my own ankle biter.
I don’t think a lot of people realize how much just exerting yourself or getting yourself dirty outside makes you think clearly and rids all of the fog from overstimulation. Thanks Dwayne your chats are always super insightful
Yes I agree I’m a gardener and love my job. Went to college and uni and studied on computers, got a part time job as a gardener just to earn a little money and never looked back could never work in a computer job or inside now that I’ve worked outdoors

Excellent advice for boys. Most important is the boy is with his father doing things. He will be among the few that will respect his dad
bruh its the opposite. most dads dont respect their kids or wives.
Also, why is virtue always exclusively a male burden.

That’s cool I build patios with my dad in the summer in Minnesota, a lot of days above 90, we’re out in the sun and it’s sticky outside. Love how hard it makes me work
@@LukeN3 Good on you. Keep up the hard work. This summer we're average a high of 105. Yee-haw.
@@LukeN3 man I'm over here down south i was just joking with some guys on site about how nice and cool it'd be if we were working up in Minnesota 😂😂 we laid brick in 105 last week. can't imagine Florida or Arizona. I've done Ohio summers, they're a lil better
Really appreciate this post, Dwayne. Common sense and horse sense. Great combination. 👍 😊
This guy is a genius in analogies. Love it!!!
Thank you, Dwayne! After COVID lockdown, I found myself tired and unmotivated. Come to learn, I just needed to get back in the gym and do more around our 80acre farm in MN. Who’d have thought that I would feel more energetic and accomplished AFTER a long day repairing fence lines, lifting weights and doing yard work. This lesson hit home. Keep it up with these invaluable videos!!
I came to this video a bit late but just wanted to say a couple things: Your commentary on not needing an emotional connection with your horse is more refreshing than you realize. I grew up riding, breaking, and breeding horses and was constantly made to feel (always by other women) that I was somehow heartless for putting forth the notion that a professional, not an emotional, bond was required for what we did. Hearing someone actually acknowledge this makes me feel good. So thank you. Also, people severely underestimate the importance of tiring one's self out. My husband and I do every single thing ourselves, we hit the gym 5x a week, we mountain bike, and dirt bike. We always joke that we're never "refreshed" after a weekend physically, but mentally we are at absolute serenity because of how active we are. We have no children yet, but will within the next 2 years, and we fully intend on raising them like you stated. Thank you for your wise words.
"saying some hard things this morning" 😂 that's for sure. appreciated the video
This is the Grandpappy I've needed in my life. 😭💓
I'm 26, when I was 8 I was put on Ritalin and later was taken up to Concerta. The best way to describe the experience is this. It's like taking a concert speaker and throwing wet blankets on it to dull the sound until it's at a level to suit a classroom. Concert speakers aren't designed for classrooms they're designed for stadiums but schools don't see it that way. Sit down, stay still, shut up, and study 8+ hours a day.
Things are better now, jiu-jitsu and weights have been really good for me. Personally, I intend on keeping my kids away from meds.
Dwayne, I just came across your channel and wanted to reach out and just say thanks for the good ol’ fashioned talk. I appreciate you reaching out to the young guys. I believe they are in desperate need of guidance, but have so few places to find it. I’m not a youngster, but even I enjoy the chats. It feels like we are sitting together and just chewing the fat. I don’t even mind not being able to put in my two cents.😂 It’s very clear that GOD has brought you to this place. I will spread your channel as much as I can in hopes that others can sit down for a chat! GOD bless and see you along the trail!
Again very wise words from you Dwayne👍I really enjoy your videos and thoughts . I dont have a clue on horses, enjoy hearing about it, but I´ve come to the same conclusions and thoughts about life, raising kids and relations among people. I just really enjoy watching your videos, thanks Dwayne, you are the man 💪
Good news! I’m talking my little brother hiking tomorrow. First time I’ve been in years, and something I’ve needed for a while now. I’ve missed the woods. Great vid and great advice as always.
I in all likelihood will never own a horse. Still listened to every word with intent. Thanks for what you do.
My "wood pile" is a drum kit, and 43 years after I began playing, I think I owe my mother a word of thanks.
I owe my old neighbours a word of apology, for all the noise they put up with.
Keep your "gums flapping", sir.
Food for thought.
If everyone could truly hear this! Most of the world’s problems would be nil. I LOVE your messages-so applicable to real life!
Thank you.
I had a European bloodline GSD that was always anxious and wanted to herd children. Put him on a good 5 mile run on the trail and he was a whole different animal afterwards
I love it when you and/or your wife put up a video, thanks!
A toast to you Dewayne: Until Common Sense is once again (more) common.
Not falling back on prescriptions for your boy was the right choice. My Dr. prescribed me Adderall for ADHD when I was 19. It did help for about a year, but it changed who I was. It almost numbed me, I just wasn't excited about anything anymore. My parents told me I shouldn't have got on it to begin with, and after two years I really wish I had of listened to them from the start. Stopping Adderall was actually incredibly unpleasant, but man am I glad I did. Regular physical activity has been a godsend for me ever since. It keeps me sharp.
So many problems with anxiety would go away if we just have an active lifestyle where we feel that real rest after exertion because we need it. Too much inactivity is a very bad thing.
Excellent points in whatever path of life you are journeying through! Your the voice of reasoning is something worth listening too.
I really loved this video dry creek wrangler school! I do agree on that you do not have/need to bond with your horse your horse needs to take you seriously in order to do that they have to associate you with working than loved this video
God bless this channel.
Until you’re tuckered out. I love it!
Horse sense: Wet saddle blankets and woodpile! Now you're diving deep into no-nonsense growth and well being!
These vids keep me afloat. Get physical. That's what a man needs. Always. Working an office job I just now realised how true that is. Too bad it had to take an anxiety breakdown to get the point across. Get tired, get outside, get your hands scratched and hard. Greetings from central Europe! Your wisdom reaches far!
I’m 15 I’m probaly the most physically active kid you meet but I bawl my eyes out in the gym and play it off as something in my eye. I’m missing something besides physical activity. What could that mission thing be?
@@Jake-lc4ohHi Jake, I'm afraid I can't give you a straight advice. I'm twice your age and far from perfect. I don't know you or your life or the circumstances that make you feel that way. There is almost always more than one answer and there is almost always more than one cause. I would say if you are active and healthy, try diving deep and figure out what exactly makes you feel like shit. A little internal analysis. Then act on it. Don't lose hope and keep at it. Everything gets better with time. A couple years from now you will look back, facepalm and laugh about things you are mad about today.
Try and do it before you go to work too. Everything is easier in the day after a workout. That relaxed yet energised feeling cannot be bought.
Thanks from Europe. Great work!
One of my favorite new channels to listen to while smoking my cigar. I started smoking cigars on my first deployment to keep my mind right and to decompress. Gives me time to think and re motivate myself in an otherwise shitty situation.
i live in an urban environment and found that through bouldering in a gym not only is it super fun and challenging but also incredibly tiring which is one of my favourite parts of it, seeing how far i can push my body (and the skin of my hands) before i’m too tired to keep going
My friend, ole time bouldering partner Nancy Prichard-Bouchard once said " I boulder hard so I can sleep at nite." ..Soo true !
Dwayne I’ve had customers for a long time. You don’t bond with them you build relationships with them. Strictly business. Pretty simple formula is work well for me for years. Awesome video brother.👍👍👍
I learned how to use a matic the other day and dug up bamboo roots I wish I could work that hard every day it makes me feel better honestly
Excellent video one of my favorites.
Everytime Dwayne says good morning, or good afternoon i always say it back. in public people get confused but after a year of watching him I feel like it has become a habit
my daddy had the same perspective, a tired horse is easy to deal with
Thank you for getting on and speaking the truth every video brother. You’re a good man.
It doesn’t matter how often we train our horse or how hard we train our horse, if we do not work them to the point that they get tired, we are wasting our time.
I'm not a horse person......but I find myself watching. I appreciate your videos!!
Who says a city slicker like myself can't learn from a good ol cowboy!!!!!
Love the content keep em coming 👏
I agree with what your saying about the power of excersize. I believe that with depression, anxiety, anger ect. excersize does not tire you and into not caring, but it is rewarding to your body and re sets your emotional state. Like what you said about sweating out the toxins. Thank you for sharing your wisdom
Great knowledge I can't wait to implement. Thanks for this Dwayne.
I aleyas hate mowing my grass. One of my least favorite things to do. Especially because I can’t listen to music. But then when I start doing doing it, I love it. I think to myself and mentally vent and just have conversations with myself and reflect. It’s always, always something I DO end up enjoying and I always wish I could mow more.
My first job at 13 was on a ranch throwing hay and cleaning horse stalls. We would take customers for rides. You’re absolutely right, you don’t need to bond with a well trained/worked horse. The horse is just doing a job. I’m 45 now and still figuring this life thing out. 😂great video!
Raising 2 little boys that are wild is gift.
Unsure why your stories resonate with me so much but every message is exactly what I need at the time. Thank you for your wisdom 🫡
Great sense, super advice taken fully in.
Thank you for your message. I couldn't agree more. I grew up a hose drinking country boy. Living life wide open. Now watching my son drinking out of the hose Living his life ide open washing up in the creek at the end of the day. Because he wants to not Because he has to. We both are so tired at the end of each day we can hardly get to bed. Just the way it should be.
Dewayne you are spot on with the fact that people need to get tired and totally exhausted and put in a hard day's work it will fix allot of people and their problems thanks for your insight
Good sleep is one of the other major benefits of tuckering yourself out physically every day, in addition to what he said about physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual benefits.
Dewayne, you are absolutely right. I've told my wife, if someone is depressed, there is no amount of pain they are feeling compared to walking 20 minutes on a stair stepping machine. I have to remind myself of that at times. Love your talks. I'm smoking a Punch Corojo listening this evening, wishing you the best from East TN.
Thank you!! You’re content helps my whole family in ways I couldn’t even begin to explain. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!!! Our son is 3 and full of life. I “work” him daily for hours on end until he gets this look of pure joy and satisfaction on his face. And if I’m being honest, he works me twice as hard hahaha just as it should be!
So much real talk.
Your chats, never disappointed. I damaged my thigh muscle & its really hampered my activities & i definitely tell difference, at 71 ,its slow healing, but getting there, physically & mentally. Being able to enjoy this Perdumo Habano, coffee ,under stars & your chats help ALOT. God Bless
Thank for the wisdom brother!
I just love being reminded of how life works
We always like it, Mr. Dwayne. Thank you for sharing your wise words with us again.❤Have a great day!
This is huge. Thankfully, I am good at running myself till I’m tired. And I personally need to find more time to rest so I can focus some on what’s going on in my mind. And not a sit-on-the-couch type of rest, but a very intentionally time with God type of rest.
Thank you for affirming that working and moving till you can’t any longer works. I am not a very reactive person when I am too tired for any of it. Thank you for your videos and topics.
That fly built a bond with you, he was playing around jumping on the camera and then you're hat. We should check em for intelligence again, just in case.
I was a problematic child. Lots of energy and never thought about consequences until after I messed up. My parents tried Ritalin, grounding me for months at a time, screaming at me, threatening to give me up, taking 2x4 across my rear end, etc. finally in my junior year of high school they gave up. That same semester I started attending an afternoon class at another school, and I would rollerblade 15+ miles a day Monday-Friday. Wouldn’t you know it, but I was able to calm down, do my work, and stay out of trouble. Instead of being locked in a room only being allowed to to come out for school or cleaning the house, I was exerting myself for a few hours a day rollerblading between campuses. I really flourished when they finally gave up. Exertion is great to zap that excess energy, and I plan on using this when I have my own ankle biter.
Thank you, Dwyane.
Man, you hit a lot of red buttons. You are spot on!
