- Stunning weekend thought I better make the most of it. found some time to talk about how people treat you before and after success, making money on UA-cam, and a little bit of general life
I hear what you're saying. There is a difference between saying "I do this and it's been xyz" and saying "you NEED to do xyz." I often throw little things I do as well, but I get that what I do doesn't work for everyone, and also I don't often follow-through on my own advice, even if it does somewhat work for me.
At the expense of sounding like an absolute hipster, I've been following you since before you started to catch on. Personally, *I am immensely happy to see you doing better.* You are the total opposite of so much of the depressing "black pill" content of guys who do nothing but complain and never try to better themselves. But at the same time, you aren't one of those "Andrew Tate/motivational speaker" types either.
There is this cute and yet profound little animated short video you may like. It wasn't about any particular situation or advice or anything, but rather it was about goals and such in general. I really found it relevant. They won't let me post a link to it for some reason, but it's called "Music and life" by Alan Watts.
Thankyou for your kindness 🙏🏼. I appreciate what you are saying too, its something I am conscious of when recording, how much negativity am I putting out there, for example and for sure motivation isn't something I would see from myself, however I have found it easier to boost people than I have found it to boost myself, but motivation 🤷🏼♂️
What I have found is just speaking 'real' good and bad, seems to connect with a lot more people, sure situations and circumstances are different but the general feeling seems to resonate.
I will check out that video, Alan Watts has a lot to say
The main thing I miss about the UK is the countryside biome. You don’t realize some of the beauty of your home country until you leave it.
Since I’ve started mindfulness and most recently Zen practices it makes me want to re experience uk with my new outlook on the experience of the current moment.
Great video Adam and always supporting you on the journey of self discovery
I guess there is a lot of 'grass is greener' situations? Every country has that pull, but being able to find it (in terms of nature in this respect) can sometime feel harder than elsewhere.
I would imagine Japan has some beautiful places, but if you are surrounded by built up areas it can be hard to find that air.
Taking the time to enjoy the free things is something I have found myself doing more, if not more frequent, I try to enjoy the moments when I do get them.
Ironically its something I said to my counsellor, that listening to birds or flowing water, taking a walk in the countryside can help so much, yet so few people seem to be aware
@@Add- definitely agree with nature sounds. I don’t want to tell you what to do, but for me personally I tend to close my eyes and listen to the character of each sound without judging or applying knowledge to it (for example hearing birds and saying in my mind “that’s a bird “)
It’s really amazing how simple things are beautiful if you give your full attention to it
It is super comfy to go outside when it is not too warm and at the same time it is that nice little wind. I know I need to continue to push myself having walks, as it is not something I do if not. Just find a bench and chill is also a win. Everything to break the circle is a win!
Hey Adam, awesome video keep doing what you do! Very genuine and authentic ✨️ 🙌
This was a really pleasant video to watch, and your camera and mic coupled with your portrayal of the moment really encapsulated the pleasant, warm and peacefulness/calmness of the day/afternoon including the pleasant and subtle audible bird song in the background.
You actually covered a lot of ground in this video. I think one person's interpretation of success can be different to someone else's. I guess it comes down to what individuals class as important in their life. For some that might mean competing in the "rat race", flashy work titles, material wealth, expensive lifestyles etc. etc. For others it might be contributing to the lives of others etc.Thing is the "feel good factor" comes down to someone believing they are "accomplishing" and "delivering" along whatever lines they hold as important to them.
It's also so easy to use a sliding scale of "success" and "competence" by comparing our lives to others. Thing is we are only as happy in these scenarios as the last comparison made us, and can we even be sure our perceptions of others is a true reflection of who they really are and their current contentment etc. in life.
Personally I see self-acceptance as a true state of contentment and inner-peace. It is knowing oneself and being enough even at our lowest point, amongst that is self-compassion (self-love) too. I see mental strength and independence as a state of self-assurance (not intimidated by others), self-belief (knowing one can always trust and depend upon themselves to get through the toughest of life's situations) and self-awareness (knowing one self's true talents, strengths and weaknesses) so they can play to their strengths and minimise damage by working around weaknesses. This minimises anxiety and removes the need of validation from others. Seeing results on what we hold as important raises our contentment up a level.
Adam, I think through your videos and the feedback you receive you are starting to see beyond the chains of oppression that have held you back, the toxic opinions and influences you encountered from your family etc. that are anything but your true worth, potential and what you are about. In short you are starting to "believe in yourself" and rightly so. I guess self-belief can be the difference between pessimism and optimism, the difference between feeling positive and the ability to let that rub off on others. Hope this has been of some help to you Adam, as always much love and respect to you. 🙂
Thanks as always, the last part really resonates, especially more recently. Having struggled with self esteem, worth and all those things, strangely enough over the last 6-8 months, people (both on here and in my day to day) have helped me start to maybe see more about myself.
Don't vet me wrong, its still very hard for me to believe a few things about my character, positive things, but I do feel I am better towards myself than I have been for a long long time, trying to use what people seem to be 'giving' me and growing with it
🙏🏼
@@Add- For the large part our self-esteem is directly impacted by other people. School life in particular can be really difficult for some, home life can be a off-set in those situations. When home life itself is toxic to the point someone's self-esteem is severely knocked before even starting school what chance do they have in finding a off-set. The direct impact from criticism alone makes someone believe they are inferior and that is before even considering all the non-verbal stuff from others being treated more favourably to our perceptions of facial expressions of disappointment in faces that matter to us etc. etc. etc. and the list goes on.
Now in the case of a battered and bruised self-esteem through toxic school days it can be put right later by taking a step back, re-assessing and putting things into correct context, but someone afflicted by family no doubt will have a much harder time as that toxic belief system is much more deep routed (they grew up with it).
The thing that does really matter is someone's true character. Integrity, decency and honesty and you Adam have those in abundance, which can sadly grate on some as they become more aware of their own failings on reflection. Now add to that a understanding of what it is to suffer, to be able to relate and be that meaningful difference to a point of a life changing difference and someone's potential has just raised a significant notch. Again Adam you have this in abundance, but you perhaps lack a little belief in yourself and no surprise after everything you have encountered and endured. What I give you hear Adam is a true reflection of you. 🙂
You know the mind can be a really powerful thing, but there is a need to channel it in the right directions. If we focus internally forever criticising ourselves we can potentially nigh on destroy ourselves or bare minimum make ourselves miserable. If we focus more on others, understand why they may be struggling drawing from our own experiences we can then set about showing them a different way of thinking moving their point of focus away from debilitating internalised thoughts to ones of positive progression as they start to explore opportunities drawing from their life experiences in tow.
The mind is a powerful thing, and for the most part we can "achieve" anything we want to, but there is a need for "self-belief". Self-belief is the tenacity in the face of aversion, it is the driving force that brings our endeavours to a place of fruition when we want to achieve something badly enough. Adam when you can instil self-belief in others you will be rocking and rolling and it's often achieved through giving praise and recognition, but in order to give of this nature we often need to believe in ourselves first. Perhaps time to break the chains of oppression and start to explore your true potential. I hope this has been of some help to you Adam. As always much love and respect to you, and to your channel and the invaluable content you continue to put out there that helps so many on levels and layers you perhaps aren't fully consciously aware of yet. ❤❤
Look at that sky 💙
It's good that you're honest about how much you make from UA-cam. This is often something creators stay quiet about.
Idk. I feel like I’m learning I constantly have to stop, reflect, and assess what’s good for me and what I want out of life. I feel like instead of subscribing to how society defines success and joy, I have to figure out what success and joy means to me. I’ve also learned that I have to take stock and lovingly assess others in my life. The people who are for you, will be for you. And the people who are not, won’t be, and can go do their own thing. I’m trying to work on not giving them any energy or weight in my life. Keep doing your channel, and I know you’ll continue to grow both on UA-cam and along your journey in life. 🤗
Advice can help so much but it is down to the person to do what they feel to do. If the person giving the advice however, takes it personally that you're not following it, then it is not advice but a dictatorship trying to assert control and to be frank they can keep it👍
Adam I used to hate you but I realised I have been projecting onto you what I lack in myself. So what I am trying to say is thankyou live your best life
Absolutely no reason to hate Adam, so that is an insane weird comment from you.
@@grandiosa86 He literally just said he realised he was projecting. 🤷♀️
It’s a big deal to realise that and admit it. Fair play.
@@BanjoPixelSnack still there was no reason to hate Adam lol
It is what it is, not everybody will like you, you won't like everybody. At the end of it all, its a lot of effort to hate, when reality is you could not see another moment from me and put that hate energy into something for yourself. When the day is done, how you feel about me impacts you more than it does me, dont let your thoughts about someone you don't know, get under your skin
Lifes crazy enough as it is
It is so exhausting to listen to people's advices, as they often think that they have a great idea or something that could help you. And on top of it you have also tried what they suggest and it did not work for you. You just wants to scream "finish me!!"
There is not any quick fix, we have an illness that many of us must live with. I had depression for over 20 years now, I tried this and that, but it is something that I do not have much control over. The depressive waves comes and goes, throughout the day, and with it comes anxiety as well. There ain't any escape or rest.
Enjoying the ment is a skill
The 'ment?
Yes, I can see exactly where you're coming from, there is a lot of youtuber abuse around from trolls, and it does tend to be those who have a lot of subscribers, because they tend to say so on their channels. It seems that the vast majority of people out there though tend to come to their aid and offer support or reassurance that there's no need to be worried. Personally it doesn't influence my decision as to whether to watch a youtuber or not, if they begin to get more popular or wealthy, that's just pathetic, but I guess it does happen and some people do feel like that, and become jealous over what is seemingly insignificant to them. Whereabouts are you, it sounds like not a million miles from an East Midlands town, because of your accent?
7:08 could this be one of your root issues? That on some level you don't want to actively move your life forward because you've found a source of support and validation from people who may disappear if your situation changes?
you know what thats not something I have had cross my mind. Interesting point that I guess perhaps, there is some truth to what you have said
you spoke about alex hormozi, and while what you said might be true, what he "sells" by not selling is sheer emotional manipulation. bro made all his money through collector edition books instead of being worth "100 million" through whatever gym snake oil he sells. he is a great example of lying all your way to youtube success.
disappointed 💔
