I've been listening for a long time now. I lost my Mother three years ago in February n I've had a very hard time being happy since n feeling like there's anything that will take away my sadness. The Lord showed me the day after, that he was taking her with him n that helped a lot but I still have this sadness in me that's been extremely hard to shake. Just wanted to tell you guys that finding you guys when I did, I believe the Lord guided me to you, has given me some of that happiness back and some purpose back in my life and I'm very grateful for truck talks, pod casts, the Chadd wright channel and everyone of you at 3 of 7. I love you guys n look forward to hearing you everyday. Thanks again
I lost my momma suddenly, just before covid got started....It was jaw dropping, earth shattering,my man! I lean into the Lord and my family as much as I can. But, she wasn't even 54. I started having seizures and those stopped my heart twice in 2022. I wasn't handling well at all. It's been only the last few months and a book I have been reading( this isn't a plug), it's called R.G. LeTourneau Movers of Men and Mountains. It's a Christians story/testimony, that I have had for a long time, and it's really helped me start putting some things together in Mt head. I will be praying for you man. And I do recommend that book for a Christian, it's character building reading.
My Mom died August 2023 know what you mean I start crying and think about her and I always come around to smiling it’s hard but we have to keep going God Bless
1st Thessalonians 4 : 13 ---18 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lird in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
I’ve already lived a long life. As a young man I served my country in the military. I worked in a career for the next fifty years that allowed me to support a life style that was comfortable. If there would be any advice I could give, it would be to learn a skill that you enjoy doing, then be the best you can at doing it. And be a person of worth, not necessarily wealth. Be trustworthy, and honest.
One thing I can say that I've learned in 46 years is to not be selfish with our time, resources or skills. If someone needs help, help them. If someone is down help them get back up even if it costs you money and time. We are here to help people. We're not here to be self absorbed. Love one another and be good to each other. If someone hates me I love them harder, I pray for them and try to help them. Just be a good person in this life.
Exactly we need to help each other. I’m a proud small town white boy who stops to help people in distress. I pulled a guy out of the mud on the side of the road just the other day.
Thanks brother. This hit hard. Good timing. I've wasted much of my life. Let too many bad habits control me for decades. So now I'm sprinting to catch up. The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The next best time is now...
This comment resonated deeply with me. I too have squandered my best years on addictions and selfish living: Decades spent giving my best away. Now is the time to become what the Good Lord has been calling me to,... all along....
I'm almost 40 and unfortunately similar experience to what y'all described here. Is 40 too late? Where/what do I start? I don't even have a real career to speak of, just jobs...
40 isn't too late. I'm 44 and having some hard realizations myself. God can do amazing things with a yielded heart. Jump in His word and seek Him while there's time. Link up with some true believers that can help you along the way. Become the person He created you to be. The career is secondary to becoming a solid individual in Him first. Proverbs 3:5, 6
I don't recommend 100 mile runs. I seem to recall an old coach telling me he had heart problems possibly caused by overdoing things. Also lots of people end up with hip joint, knee, and foot problems. Sure it may be due to a lack of exercise but it can also come from over doing it.
Wise advice from a wise man. Best thing I ever did was come back to Jesus at age 25. I had to work hard for 8 years to catch up. But good thing was God “directed my steps” and gave me the strength to stay on the right path. God is faithful and won’t let you down.
Not making any excuses...it is what it is. Lost everything in a divorce in 07. I was 42 then. Rebuilt, bought a little land worked hard to fix this place up. Now I have health problems , blood clots in both legs....but...I'm still at the damn table playing the cards I been delt....my hope is I know I won't burn long....but I will burn bright. Thankyou for the insparation and streghtening my resolve ! We are all in this together
I love how you challenge people to take ownership of their lives Chadd, yet at the same time never forgetting to give God and the lord Jesus Christ the glory. May God bless you and give us fellow Christian's the faith to be warriors for Christ.😊
My future is this life and beyond in Heaven. I am prepared to meet Thy GOD.... I am covered by Christ, forever. Blessings GA soldier...from a U.S. Revolutionary War family. Peace be upon your house.
At 57 years old, yeah I know I havent done what I needed to in the past. I love my job, but I havent prepared financially for the soon to be future. Nor even though I like what i do I should be farther along in that career. I tell the young people all the time. Man start preparing now. Start progressing now. Start saving now. dont get old & still be working check to check.
Damn, this one hit me particularly hard. I’m 42 years old, and have done very little to prepare for my future. Financially and the more important aspect, my health. Fuck. Long rocky uphill road ahead.
Chad I listen to your videos each and every day and I am a changed man because of it. However this video is a game changer, I'm DONE dragging ass at work and not putting in my best effort everyday. Keep on inspiring people, your doings the Lord's work 🙏
President Wright, You are what you stand for. It is your character. Your character supports the culture. The culture affects everyone in it. Let us live under the Christian culture. Free!
It was great sharing the trail with you all this weekend. Congratulations to you both for getting your buckles. Your friend was huuurting, but y’all sucked it up and got it done! 👏👏👏
please never stop the truck talks, It is my daily therapy. this was deep, no pun intended. I messed up a lot in my life, but I am 50 years old now. my days of crazy work outs are gone. But I do run, and stay up on my cardio. I spend my time with my GSD and my classic car. btw I am getting a T shirt. peace bro
Many of the truck talks have been hard for Me to listen to, this one in particular, pierced Me to My core. For far too long I've be bopped through life, low effort. Now I've got to hump it tripple time to be where I need to be spiritually, mentally and physically..
Chadd, i’m so so glad you took the story that I just watched your podcast on where you went through the full version of this message and made a truck talk out of it because it’s a powerful powerful message to us and is it a lot of us between the eyes and given us a wake up call we need because I’m at like mile 90 right now. I’ve got a couple decades to make up and I’m gonna hit it hard ‘son’🔥‼️‼️ With God‘s help, I’m going to not only finish this race he laid out for me here in this life, but I’m gonna beat the standard ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥🙏🏻🙌
Thanks 3 of 7 for the reminder that if one has wasted that first 60m then one better get sprinting for the last 20/30/40m. Even if you thought the choices ya made were right at the time? Recognise whether you gotta sprint or not. & fast… Bless Friend, wishing you All the Beauty that seems to surround you ❤️✌️🙏
Having experience in a lot of suffering, stupid decisions, and downright almost giving up along the way, I wish that people would watch your older video "Just keep going" and this video first, the grind is long to any kind of change and most people give up before the real change starts. Easy, not even close, possible, absolutely. I wonder how many guys rang that bell at training, think about it every day and never know. I know plenty of people ring out on life every day. I will not. I cannot tell you how many times these vids have me with tears rolling down my face. Thank's for all you guys do.
Bro, I'm 42, diabetic and I've been lost for 25 years. Tomorrow I start a year long sober living house to get my life in order. Your videos have been an incredible inspiration for me. Thanks man.
Past lives ❤❤❤ well as a bonus I only ran 12-miles today in 1:50:50 . Did knockout 200-300 pushups and hung on the cloth line 4 loads of 🧺 the bed and the towels are fresh. The master bedroom smell like the great outdoors. Of course the work clothes are fresh as well for next week
Chad I'm a old man ,I try to do my best in this crazy time were in.I feel if only I had my mind set that I have now ,40 yrs ago I would be a much stronger man,I give my heart and soul to what I love,Thats my God, I just wish I could be a better person to man kind.I watch and listen to you and Chillie.I think you men are God fairing good men.I wish I could be of help .Thanks for all you guys do in shareing your time GOD Bless and keep on trucking,I love you guys Thanks again.
Great analogy! One of the traps I have fallen into is working hard for the wrong people, and not reaping the full benefits from my work. Fortunately, I have identified that problem and have corrected it! Keep doing what you are doing, the world needs more people like you.
Nice video congratulations on 100 miles of running that’s incredible!What you’re saying is all of our decisions and efforts are important and matter nothing we do is unimportant in our lives.Good message!
man.... wanna talk about something that hits home. I am making a huge decision on my future in the next few months. I love and respect your perspective on things and life man. Thank you for your efforts on these videos
This is where I am as I approach the back 9.. I recognize the set backs I've invited into my life and both my wife and I have been working diligently these past few years to gain back the ground that we let go so carelessly.. god love her, she's ride or die solid.. a very pertinent lesson that daily crosses my mind, that I don't ever take for granted so egregiously again. One foot in front of the other
What a great Truck Talk. What a very simple and powerful metaphor. We all thank you Chadd. This is the content that makes me NOT hate the internet, for it's not a cancer upon society.
I appreciate you, your channel, and your messages. I listen every day now. Have been for about two months. Wish I could talk back! Come sit around w the Pope Chilli and talk! Got me a shirt and hoodie, thank you Chilli for getting it here quick! Nuff said!
Man, You're really making me ask some tough questions. It's hard as it can be, I'm really appreciated the encouragement toward introspection. Not enough of us Do it often enough. Thank you for taking the time. God bless you brother, And chili
I think action speaks louder than words!!! We've already talked for over 100 yrs and tolerated Gov crap. Talk has to end and be replaced with action!!!
One of the best of the best Truck Talks Chadd! Making points with actual real life circumstances is in my humble opinion the best way to teach and for those with open minds to learn. Thank you again for this .. I've kept Chili in the dungeon many times and will again soon.
I've been listening for a long time now. I lost my Mother three years ago in February n I've had a very hard time being happy since n feeling like there's anything that will take away my sadness.

Exactly we need to help each other. I’m a proud small town white boy who stops to help people in distress. I pulled a guy out of the mud on the side of the road just the other day.
Excellent making the world a better place!@@g.backwoods2216
That’s gay
I'd give today's truck talk 100 thumbs up if I could
Thanks brother. This hit hard. Good timing. I've wasted much of my life. Let too many bad habits control me for decades. So now I'm sprinting to catch up. The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The next best time is now...
This comment resonated deeply with me. I too have squandered my best years on addictions and selfish living: Decades spent giving my best away. Now is the time to become what the Good Lord has been calling me to,... all along....
I also wasted the best years of my life in addiction,such a waste of time ,I thank the Lord he saved me from that.
I'm almost 40 and unfortunately similar experience to what y'all described here. Is 40 too late? Where/what do I start? I don't even have a real career to speak of, just jobs...
40 isn't too late. I'm 44 and having some hard realizations myself. God can do amazing things with a yielded heart. Jump in His word and seek Him while there's time.

I got sober at 58! I will be two years next month, if you are alive you have time to change! @@Mojo32
I'm here to tell you, it doesn't get easier as you age, so you better pick up the pace now. Thanks for your motivation.
I don't recommend 100 mile runs. I seem to recall an old coach telling me he had heart problems possibly caused by overdoing things. Also lots of people end up with hip joint, knee, and foot problems. Sure it may be due to a lack of exercise but it can also come from over doing it.

It's never to late to do the right thing. It can be more powerful than we realize.
Not making any excuses...it is what it is. Lost everything in a divorce in 07. I was 42 then. Rebuilt, bought a little land worked hard to fix this place up. Now I have health problems , blood clots in both legs....but...I'm still at the damn table playing the cards I been delt....my hope is I know I won't burn long....but I will burn bright.

Wow. 100 miles. Bravo Chad. Sheeiit. I can walk miles but not run. Those days are over for me. I can't imagine it.
Yep for me osteoarthritis ended my running days
My future is this life and beyond in Heaven. I am prepared to meet Thy GOD.... I am covered by Christ, forever. Blessings GA soldier...from a U.S. Revolutionary War family. Peace be upon your house.
TRUTH!! YOU get out of it, what YOU put into it !!
The truth is what gets you there.
This one hit hard. Thanks for the kick in the ass.
Comfort can be a silent killer. "God please forgive me for the time I have wasted". Good truck talk Chadd.
Life is a journey not a destination. I'm 55 and about a decade ago this finally hit me...full force.
Dead on brother. I needed that!
Good advice brother
Wow.. you definitely left us fans with something to think about..
At 57 years old, yeah I know I havent done what I needed to in the past. I love my job, but I havent prepared financially for the soon to be future.

Moore Truth from bro Chad ❤
Future President Wright,
I love you. You are good.
I almost watched this video with my coffee at the table. that was a close one. I have to watch TRUCK TALK in my truck!!!
Most every time I watch your Truck Talk you talk about a subject or topic that is going on in my Life.
It was great sharing the trail with you all this weekend. Congratulations to you both for getting your buckles. Your friend was huuurting, but y’all sucked it up and got it done! 👏👏👏
please never stop the truck talks, It is my daily therapy. this was deep, no pun intended. I messed up a lot in my life, but I am 50 years old now. my days of crazy work outs are gone. But I do run, and stay up on my cardio. I spend my time with my GSD and my classic car. btw I am getting a T shirt. peace bro
You're True my friend. We are running out time in life. Thank you very much for your true talk.god bless you
God's providence determines our past present and future; don't be so presumptuous as to think you do.
Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness. Follow Jesus
That is absolute truth. I hope you young guys take the time to consider this concept and adopt it into your daily process ❤
Life is a marathon, not a sprint. Everybody finishes exactly where they deserve to and that's the beauty of it.
Great video brother I look fwd to your truck talks every day. Keep walking with our King
Thanks Cardinal
Vary vary good one....good fruit brother.............that will give them something to chew on for while......I commend you wise words.....Roger that!
Some tough love I needed to hear today, thank you
Really Good message. Thank you for this
The best part is that no matter what, if you have faith in Jesus Christ and are disciplined in following Him, He can change your life!
"The things you do today determine your future." Pure gold there. Appreciate you and the gang doing these truck talks, Chadd.
True! I planned for nothing and,,,, that's exactly what I got! But man I'm having fun. It's a hell of a ride!
Many of the truck talks have been hard for Me to listen to, this one in particular, pierced Me to My core. For far too long I've be bopped through life, low effort. Now I've got to hump it tripple time to be where I need to be spiritually, mentally and physically..
I remember being in south Vietnam and a fire fight broke out i still dont remember what they where saying but they just stopped saying.
Chadd, i’m so so glad you took the story that I just watched your podcast on where you went through the full version of this message and made a truck talk out of it because it’s a powerful powerful message to us and is it a lot of us between the eyes and given us a wake up call we need because I’m at like mile 90 right now.

With God‘s help, I’m going to not only finish this race he laid out for me here in this life, but I’m gonna beat the standard ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥🙏🏻🙌
Nuff said brother God bless
Solid advice and metaphor. It's never to late and theres no better time than now.
"Hope that made ya think." Uh, yeah, sure did! Man, that`s some cold hard Alpha truth bombs dropped right there. Thanks for that🙏✊
Thank you so much Chad. This message really hit home for me. I love you, my brother in Christ.
Thanks 3 of 7 for the reminder that if one has wasted that first 60m then one better get sprinting for the last 20/30/40m. Even if you thought the choices ya made were right at the time? Recognise whether you gotta sprint or not.

The timing on this one is impeccable. It almost feels like it was directed at me and it's jarring.
Damn chad
Now I feel guilty drinking this six pack! You're an incredible mentor and I'm passing the word about your channel!
So true! Just received my truck talk t-shirt. Love it! Thank you for all you do.
Yes Brother I am 66 and proud of how I got to this stage of life.
I can't even imagine running 5 miles let alone 100!! WOW!!! Way to go!!!🏃➡️🏃➡️🏃➡️🏃➡️
Faith in Jesus. My future could end in the next minute. Grace thru Faith
Love you Brother
Having experience in a lot of suffering, stupid decisions, and downright almost giving up along the way, I wish that people would watch your older video "Just keep going" and this video first, the grind is long to any kind of change and most people give up before the real change starts. Easy, not even close, possible, absolutely. I wonder how many guys rang that bell at training, think about it every day and never know. I know plenty of people ring out on life every day. I will not.

Thank you for this. Wife lied and stole from me and im starting over at 46. Im fighting hard for my future. Thank you for the pump up
Good word Chad
Bro, I'm 42, diabetic and I've been lost for 25 years. Tomorrow I start a year long sober living house to get my life in order.
Your videos have been an incredible inspiration for me.
Thanks man.
You are the best
Thank you Chad. Obviously I needed to hear this twice. God bless.
I here what you're saying im going to going a different way about these issues
Past lives ❤❤❤ well as a bonus I only ran 12-miles today in 1:50:50 . Did knockout 200-300 pushups and hung on the cloth line 4 loads of 🧺 the bed and the towels are fresh. The master bedroom smell like the great outdoors. Of course the work clothes are fresh as well for next week

I have so much respect for Chad truly an American bad ass! This is what all Americans should strive to be
Nice video congratulations on 100 miles of running that’s incredible!What you’re saying is all of our decisions and efforts are important and matter nothing we do is unimportant in our lives.Good message!
man.... wanna talk about something that hits home. I am making a huge decision on my future in the next few months. I love and respect your perspective on things and life man. Thank you for your efforts on these videos
Great speech. B. Marley said “wake up and live” I feel that resonates well with it. Motivation for masses is so important, thank you!
Thanks!
Yeshua has ordered my walk.....Shabbat Shalom
Thanks Chadd ,God Bless and love you Brother.
Good one!
Chadd brother that's some sobering thought provoking words. Amen the God word says our life is like a vapor here for a moment.. Then...
💯, this cannot be contested. Thank you for the nugget of wisdom.
This guys on top of things.
Amen brother. Your attitude measures your life’s latitude. Never give up. Be the change in your life. ❤🙏
Wow, an excellent analogy for everyone, small or large pivots in life for the better.
STRENGTH 💪GROWS
in the moments
When you think
You can't go on
But you KEEP GOING ANYWAY...
100 miles wow awesome
What’s up Chad? Critical message. Thanks. Thanks for reminding me.
Be sure to buy your truck tag this year Frogman. I can use all the help i can get brother. Taxes for all least we fall.
This is where I am as I approach the back 9.. I recognize the set backs I've invited into my life and both my wife and I have been working diligently these past few years to gain back the ground that we let go so carelessly.. god love her, she's ride or die solid.. a very pertinent lesson that daily crosses my mind, that I don't ever take for granted so egregiously again. One foot in front of the other
I get the back nine reference well... lol😎🔥🔥
Thank you, I have become complacent! Just the kick in the butt I needed!
What a great Truck Talk. What a very simple and powerful metaphor.
We all thank you Chadd. This is the content that makes me NOT hate the internet, for it's not a cancer upon society.
I appreciate you, your channel, and your messages. I listen every day now. Have been for about two months. Wish I could talk back! Come sit around w the Pope Chilli and talk!
Got me a shirt and hoodie, thank you Chilli for getting it here quick!
Nuff said!
So much valuable insight on life, your choices, actions and consequences. I am so glad I found this Channel.
Thanks Chadd
Man, You're really making me ask some tough questions. It's hard as it can be, I'm really appreciated the encouragement toward introspection. Not enough of us Do it often enough. Thank you for taking the time. God bless you brother, And chili
I think action speaks louder than words!!! We've already talked for over 100 yrs and tolerated Gov crap. Talk has to end and be replaced with action!!!
Plan your work,work your plan,Jesus is the beginning and the end of us all, keep Him close at all times.
Chad, received my hat today, great quality BRO. Another great episode.
So good!! Thank you
One of the best of the best Truck Talks Chadd! Making points with actual real life circumstances is in my humble opinion the best way to teach and for those with open minds to learn. Thank you again for this .. I've kept Chili in the dungeon many times and will again soon.
Never thought of it quite like that Chadd. Always get something outta it.
Thank you for the message Chad
