    I was at the store listening to this and the part about your mom being the only person truly on your corner almost made me bawl…
    I’m over here looking for attention and seeking validation from people who have made it clear they don’t value me in their life, meanwhile my mom can’t even get a text back because I get annoyed she’s always texting.
    This video really helped change my perspective, hopefully I’m able to change my identity and become a better man.

      Your mom should be your top priority for your attention..you will eventually sincerely internalize just how disconnected people are in their care about you (or how shitty many people are) and the only one who really cared this entire time was your mother. Don't wait until shes old or dead to learn that lesson...meditate on it now. I cannot stress this enough

      Completely agree. Every one should know about the Placebo Effect, and i think most of the Mental Health is consisted by the beliefs that you hold into yourself. If you hold to negative beliefs and past experiences, and you top that with negative habits, there should not come with any surprise that you are indeed going to feel depressed and hopeless.

    I came back a year later to prove to anyone watching this yes, this works. It took me a while to get into it because of how much trauma I felt at the time, but once I cured myself, I changed entirely. It's as if I can get whatever I want.
    A tip id like to give is everyone that's reading this rn, go and grab a notepad, write down all your habits (good and the bad) And see what you currently identify as. Then write the habits of the person you want to be and also make the identity for them. Write down what you identify as and put it on a wall so you can see It everyday. And within a couple of months you'll see the progress (even If you're not trying) because now it becomes subconscious. Imagine when it's conscious.

    The most important thing above all else is how you view yourself. With a bad self image or identity that doesn't serve your goals you won't really go anywhere. This is true for every mental illness and for every problem you have. Your identity even determines how satisfied you are with your life. You may be rich you may be poor but if you don't have a positive mindset and a positive self image you won't be happy. Last 2 weeks I've been feeling like I'm going crazy because I couldn't be consistent and my mental health was getting worse and worse. What's missing is the correct identity. Thank you Hamza

    🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
    00:00 *🚀 Self-improvement often involves struggling with consistency in habits, which can feel like a constant cycle of progress and relapse.*
    01:08 *🍔 Binge eating can be a mental health issue driven by anxiety, leading to a cycle of overeating despite feeling full.*
    02:46 *🎮 Pursuing good habits can feel like swimming upstream, while reverting to bad habits feels like default behavior.*
    03:57 *🔄 Real-world changes like dieting or starting new habits often fail due to an unchanged self-identity and beliefs.*
    05:36 *💡 Updating self-identity and beliefs is the shortcut to consistency in good habits and avoiding bad ones.*
    08:30 *💪 Changing self-identity from a binge eater to an athlete led to consistent positive changes in behavior and lifestyle.*

    13:33 *👑 Adopting an identity of confidence and desirability can transform relationships with others, including success with women.*

    I've needed to hear this for the longest time. I keep finding myself trying to blame something else. My thoughts are constantly trying to convince me that it's not my fault, and that it's someone else's. "I hang out with my girlfriend for too long so I don't have time to meditate'', ''My family isn't supporting every action I take so that's why I keep giving up'', it's thought like these that keep me from progressing in my self-improvement.
    I always tell myself to be responsible but now that I really take a good look at my actions and thought patterns I am not really doing that. I've been lazy, I keep doing shit that I don't wanna do. I promise myself that ''today im gonna get *all* my habits checked!'' but then I keep doing the same shit I did yesterday, and the day before, and the day before. Chasing after a non-existent tomorrow. I believed that I have to wait for things to change. But the reality is, the only thing that i've been waiting for is the realization that nothing will change if I don't.
    Thank you Hamza, for giving me hope when I feel down and for always pushing me back on the right path when I deviate. You're like a big brother to me and I appreciate everything you do. You deserve every bit of success you have. Have a good day or night whoever is reading this.
    And remember, **it's always your fault** even when you don't think so. Taking responsibility is better than blaming an external factor.

    I had to pause here because this resonated with me so much I'm kinda hold back tears a little. My entire life I have been conditioned to believe other people's beliefs about myself. I remember clearly when I was a kid being told I was the naughty one compared to my brother. My older sister literally compared me with Kane and Able (its a bible story, kane is the bad guy) and said that i was Kane and my brother was able when I was a kid. I've been told by my own family so many times that I'm every bad and they don't even realise the extent this has harmed me. I feel like this is primarily the pain I had especially during my teenage years and sometimes i felt like i was going insane. The anger i felt was immense i can remember how it feels. because even when I was literally being the example of a good kid, even when i was consistent with my homework for example 'oh you don't do enough homework', 'you don't do enough chores' or 'I make the house messy' or 'I don't help around the house enough' What made it worse is they're not angels themselves, they're far from perfect people yet they go about that they're and if something bad has happened it has to have been me. I took the blame for EVERYTHING. It really messes with your head too because i genuinely couldn't tell anymore, like im i just inherently bad? Maybe they're right and i can't tell right from wrong myself? It's really painful
    When they're literally being the very thing they have quoted me as nobody is calling them out, no one is getting shouted at. I'm not calling myself perfect either, nobody is, however it seemed to be fine when they do it and not okay when it's me and they always seemed to hunt for my own imperfections.
    I don't even want to go into having autism because school basically conditioned me to believe that I can't be normal like everyone else and I'm not capable of doing normal people things.

My Hamza Contest entry was about how I grew up in a traumatic household which as a result caused me to resent my parents for a while just like you did for a short period of time and wasn't ever grateful for anything they did for me, Just like your Dad did the hard work to leave Pakistan to give you a life in the UK, My Dad left Algeria to give me a better life in the UAE. and just yesterday I went back to them after 5 months of being away from them and told them how I haven't entirely been aware of how much they've sacrificed for me to live a better life and tried so hard to hold back tears and I couldn't loool, it was so beautiful, fulfilling and healing. Gonna try and level up my skill in Gratitude towards my parents which I think was on -1 for most of my childhood lmao.

    Something that helps me is to say to myself “YOU are so disciplined” rather than “I am”. My brain recognises this as more important because it’s as if it has come from someone else - if I say it to myself about myself I don’t take it seriously enough. But if I imagine a loved one saying it, or someone from my past memories and undoing that conditioning that was originally there (you are so messy), with them identifying something positive about myself instead. If feel like this sinks in a bit deeper than just telling myself “I am…”

    I can relate to this, changing your self image changes the game. I used to relapse on Nofap so many fucking times and never knew why I couldn't just stop it. Then I saw Hamza's self-image video (the one about Psycho-Cybernetics) as well as 1stman's vid on NoFap. The premise became clear to me: don't try to stop fapping, stop 'being' a fapper. It's the 'I'm trying to stop smoking' vs 'I don't smoke' mentality. Applicable to all things on this journey. Thanks for reminding me about this, Hamza, you a real one homie

    This video gives me vibes of "Atomic Habits" book. This is great book and I love the way Hamza is breaking this concept down. I've experienced two months of consistent self-improvement, but after this two moths my bad habits started to sneak in again. After I read this book, it completely changed the way I perceived my goals. Thank you Hamza!

    I'm a woman, retired stripper from magic city. And this resonates With me so deeply. I have been struggling with healing trauma, and therefore staying consistent. At 5:30 That triggered a memory of my dad Calling me a hoe at 17 years old, because I got with a new guy after a 4 year relationship. Every since then that is how I viewed myself. A fire truck accident is what took me out the strip club game. And I could not understand why I could not feel and do "normal girl" things..... Thank you

    This is how I quit smoking poppers (weed and cigarettes) from a 6+ year long addiction. I am now 107 days sober going strong with absolutely no desire to go back. It's entirely in the mindset, I couldn't even handle 24 hours without getting high, it was everything to me and the only thing I could look forward to as much as I hated it and how it made me feel. The limited beliefs,self hate/neglect and negative self talk kept me in the same spot. Smoking was my comfort place as much as it was destroying me mentally, physically, spiritually and socially. I knew I needed to change but I was holding onto who I was because I was scared of change I didn't believe I could change. I had no self esteem, my anxiety over took me and my depression was my identity. Since I quit with various youtubers, working on my self talk, changing habits/routine and the things I consumed on a daily basis I've made a lot of progress and continue to be the best version of myself even when it feels like I'm not going anywhere. I remind myself who I was and how it felt and it motivates me to stay clean and keep pushing forward. I am only human and I still make mistakes. I forgive myself and let it go because I know what it feels like to hold on to so much and it doesn't feel good nor benefit my life.

    @maxkuijper000 Рік тому +10

    This is very important advice, when I started nofap I went 220+ days on my first try, and the only reason I was able to do it is because I believed that I’m drastically superior to the average guys when it comes to discipline and self control, that mentality if you manage to apply to any area in your life, it would literally make you unstoppable unstoppable, others won’t be able to compete with you because fundamentally they’re not competing against a normal guy like them, in reality they’re competing with a tier-one guy in that given field

    This is so essential. I just had a retreat with 25 college students to study identity, and how the messages from our culture conflict with truth. We specifically looked at Christian identity, but your message here still fits. That's why throughout time, people have prayed, repeated, the Psalms over and over again. It's intentional identity formation. It's choosing what will dictate your identity, and thus, your future.

I started watching you around 8 months ago, and your advice was hard to do at first, and I was making slow progress. I knew that identity was important and I myself researched on this, but you tied the whole concept together perfectly. This advice is the best I've ever heard. I'm implementing this now. Thank you, Hamza, you will see me rich in a few years. Thank you.

He then realises what he said and tells his son "Dont ever let anybody ever tell you, you can't do something, not even me" - I will definetly try and replicate this scene with my kids (when I have them).

    I’m glad and very grateful to have an actual family that loves, supports, and cares for me - fuck a lot would kill to be in my spot.
    Don’t waste your time with pointless sexcapades with girls, going out clubbing until you get batshit drunk, or grind for 24 hours on a videogame for that next hit of dopamine expecting an achievement in real life because I know I did and the lows of such an extremely dopamine-dependent life sucked so fucking much - spend your precious time on your fucking family cuz you don’t know how much time they have left in this world.

    I always saw myself as someone who gets in shape doing boxing and kickboxing because I trained a lot of martial arts as a kid and teenager.
    I am 32 years old now and constantly struggling with going to the gym since three frickin years.
    This video now makes me belief that I should quit the gym and start training martial arts again because that’s just who I am

    Wow. Chick here ✋🏻[I love the clarity of this channel] I came to the same conclusion today. It's not that I was incapable of the habits/tools I needed to make my goals happen. It was that I identified myself as "a mess". "A person who can't maintain the progress". It's not true. That was where I was, not who I was. I did the work I needed to. I got the help I needed (praise God). And now, I'm revisiting so many tools & habits thanks to this channel's motivation.

    And my first gut reaction was a feeling of abnormality because "that would be too good".

    This is the best advice I have ever heard. When I look back at all my successes in life, the 6 months prior to achieving them I went through a positive identity change. I have a wife and a child because after my last breakup (4 yr LTR) I used to sit against my bedroom wall and repeat over and over in my brain "thank you for my beautiful wife and children". The way you talk about "forcing" things into you brain I see as planting identity seeds. Thanks for this unfiltered channel, best channel on youtube by far at the moment.

I believed literally I’d lose 10 lbs in a day barely doing anything and still eating throughout the day. All my teammates would be mad cuz they couldn’t do the same 💀 not only that but I changed my sleep with my own belief. I used to sleep 10-14 hours after work and now I’m down to 5-8 hours easily without an alarm. The identity of oneself is a very powerful concept and ngl I still have work to do
