If you knew me in my 20s, you would NOT have expected much of me. I was aimless, hated myself, and was not coping well at all. And I'll won't mince words, it was a long, bumpy road to where I am now.
But these 8 practices didn't just help, they radically changed my life. Seriously. This is the mini-episode for you if you're feeling stuck or frustrated with where you're at in life.
(00:00:00) - Intro and where I started
(00:07:03) - Create an internal environment of appreciation and gratitude
(00:11:31) - Use your body. Really. Use. Your. Body.
(00:16:17) - Meditate or journal every single day. One or the other
(00:21:46) - Consume better content
(00:26:30) - Replace coping mechanisms with generative habits
(00:27:59) - Work on your purpose, mission, or business every single day
(00:30:02) - Don’t know your purpose? Let your quest to find it BE the purpose
(00:32:45) - Start to socialize with more people outside your comfort zone

You are one of the only UA-camrs whose self-help content is actually transformative and makes you think.
True! What other Channels do you watch?
I'm over 50. I found this video because I still don't feel like I have my shit together. This was great advice. Thank you. 🙂🙏
“i do muay thai every week”
all i needed to hear to validate every piece of advice in the video
This doesn’t have enough views. I’ve been listening to a lot of your content lately. Thank you for keeping and motivating me to stay on a path I’ll be proud of when I grow old.
Not everyone is suppose to be on the right path. That's how our small percentage can acquire the most out of life.
Victor Davis Hanson who has grown up working a family farm in Central California has often spoke of the benefit of combining the muscular with the mental. There's a bond that is formed that helps cement both and helps you become a fuller person.
I’m 23 years old and I’m my own worst enemy. This is exactly what I needed to hear.
Nothing I’ve done has ever felt quite good enough, and I won’t even take action to change that. I’ve been binge watching self help content for far too long to know I don’t want to continue living the life I’m living.
This is the first video that really resonated with me and I’m not even fully sure why that is. I’ve never even commented on a video, but felt compelled to do so now. Just typing this makes me feel a little insane, but also a little excited that I’m
actually doing something that isn’t just laying down and watching.
I’m going to practice these 8 recommendations starting now.
Thank you so much for your wisdom.
Never too late to start taking ownership of your life man. Good on you for seeing the change is needed, owning up to it is the hardest part of the fight.
You got this bro! Each day is a new day!
How are you doing now? Still doing these practices?
I went down the fresh and fit rabbit hole for the last three years. I was in a 10 year relationship and slowly I began to believe all aspects of “the red pill” which essentially is an echo chamber of talking points of disaffected men. My relationship suffered as a result as I began to look at my own significant other differently than I did before.
I think the consuming better content is such a game changer for me. Personally, I’ve endlessly watched just brain rot content on instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, etc. to control those aspects and consume what’s better for myself, drastically changes your life and how you see things; seriously
There’s so much I could say but I’ll say this
Thank you.
Only 2 words needed for this wisdom.
Thank you so much. I needed to know someone who knew me better or even better someone who maybe knows me better than I know myself. The brutal self talking I was doing is the key.
This is the most underrated content on UA-cam.
So many gems in this. Thank you. I totally agree that it’s very attractive to others when a man isn’t all socially awkward/avoidant and is actually capable of having convo with many kinds of people. Don’t go overboard and be a schmoozer that tells people what they want to hear, but at least read and expose yourself to a variety of life adventures so you HAVE SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT.
I know this video doesn't have a lot of views but that's how I know it's transformative content. Thank you so much for making this! I appreciate everything that is said.
Great video! Been watching a bunch of your videos the last couple days and you are awesome!
Needed to hear this. Thanks, Connor
Thanks for what you do man. I listen to a lot of your content. The world needs more creators like yourself!
I'm impressed with this so fantastic content! Congrats 👏
This was an incredible message so powerful, Thanks Connor!
Hey man, just discovered your channel recently and love everything that you talk about. You are straight to the point and give great advice keep the videos coming.
Thank you for your discussion on sense of purpose. I recently had some major changes of life circumstance that left me realizing how reactive and aimless I have been. I struggled to find any long term goals or sense of purpose, but I have been putting a lot of effort into consciously choosing to improve myself. was incredibly validating to hear someone recognize that level of self improvement as being a purpose in and of itself.
This is such an amazing video man!! Thank you so much. Resonates so deeply with me right now in my life.
Its great to see this content. Bettering ourselves one day at a time
Thank you. I’ve needed this advice for decades.
Thanks for all you do Connor
This all makes perfect sense to me so thank you
Awesome material, gonna have to rewatch do fully digest it all and start to engage
Came to this channel because of the Modern Wisdom podcast and I love it
Ditto.
Absolutely fantastic advice. thank you so much
Thank you!
love the content 💯
Enjoyed listening to this.
Great video, thank you👏🏾
Great stuff. Just bought your book!
Self love is important. As this is for males it is often looked over that self care and gratitude is important and not a taboo aspect.
Great video. Really made me think. Inspired me to think about the content I'm taking in mindlessly throughout the day and to revisit some of those choices. My first step, retrain the UA-cam algorithm to not recommend content which, although entertaining, is not feeding my soul. And is sometimes toxic.
Next step, write down some goals with steps I can take daily to work towards them.
Thanks for your content.
This is 🔥🔥🔥
This was amazing
Love your content, earned a sub 👍
This man truly gets it and lives it...other youtubers on this subject make it only to the cul-de-sac before the goldmine.
I am commenting as requested... Good stuff
Great video!
Quality content.
Thank you for putting in the time and effort to create videos such as this!

David Goggins enters chat
You said "wildly..domesticated" lol.. well want to say that soeaking of decision making.. watching this content is time well spent.. i feel better about myself just tuning in. Time to put into practice
Come to Toronto again!
On the subject of dating/RP channels a lot of them are perpetuating the bad stuff that happens in relationships by being part of the problematic behavior on the male side and not living by the principles they preach. Take for example the Whatever Podcast. If you look on their clips channel Brian called Madyson “babe” (the helmet girl) when she was getting him water. The way she was looking at him when he was talking about how he styles his hair was really sus as well. The video is called “Brian Challenges Them to REMOVE Their Makeup!” and the interesting part starts at 5:10 in that video. If there’s anything going on between Brian and Madyson (she’s married) it really makes everything Brian says about loyalty and dating principles a moot point
I keep watching these videos but then I just freeze, feels like I'm trapped in my own mind. How to get out?
Do you have a top ten book recommendation video?
For a second I thought you were Vsauce in the thumbnail 😂
👏👏👏👏👏
I don't know why you felt this would resonate with men audience only but I'm a female and it prob applies to girls too
If only I had this advice 20 years ago . . . perhaps 30 . . .
Some personal recommendations of good books to read. Henry David Thoreau complete works , meditations Marcus Aurelius . the book of 5 rings miyamoto musashi , the art of war sun tzu
Watching fresh and fit 😂😂😂 I feel personally attacked
Am i also in central AB, trippy.

Thank you ,be well stay safe and may I hear from you .
This the first video that litterly talk poop
Meditation is nonsense. Talking with yourself is insane. Instead, talk to Jesus. This way you have an upper bro who you can hand over all your worries. Men need someone you can open up to when you have no one or are not comfortable to. And faith gives your life that calmness to face the daily stress.
yea talking with the “entity in the sky” is much more normal than talking to yourself 😭
@@trash3570 When matters are that bad that you can not get yourself out, and you call for help and find healing in gods love it is completely sane. When you build up your broken self with values from the the bible to make you a human being again it is completely sane.
But when life hits you, and it will certainly at some time, where are you gonna go? Where will that place of love, hope be, if you have no faith? What is gonna pull yo out off sinking deeper and deeper in chaos?
Believers have the best coping mechanism against chaos.
As a fellow lover of God, I encourage you to look into the large-and-continuously-growing body of legitimate psychological research about the proven benefits of meditation 🤝 of course I don’t know you or how you do it, but the way you talk with Jesus (and most acts of prayer, really) is almost certainly a form of meditation.
I chat to or mediate - to think deeply about Holy Spirit and He directs my path. Thinking deep with breathing meditation is helpful but being led by God is my life. It is wonderful to have a friend in Jesus. I will die one day and go to hell or heaven I am not worried I am good friends with the judge and Jesus paid for all my stupid and gave me his perfect record, very cool.
Whether you think you are talking to God (Jesus - Heaven etc) or not. Heaven/God/Jesus/Angels etc are ALWAYS LISTENING. The call always compels the answer.
I love this channel and am grateful for everyone who is listening. More men listening to this is what is going to change yourself, your relationships and the world
Typical youtube fake
I left professional work to get into trades (think Office Space.). I make more money, I’m much more physically capable, and sleep like I did as a kid.
Thank you!
