    Tolkien perfectly summed up how human the Hobbits actually are in the following sentence: 'They liked to have books filled with things that they already knew, set out fair and square with no contradictions.'

      Issue with bravery is that it seems most people seem to encourage others to commit to being brave. So they don't havr to lose too much themselves.
      I do respect people that are brave for their own sake. Not because they got coerced or otherwise manipulated into it by others.
      Got the same issue with people saying they want a hero. In other words they want someone who'd sacrifice themselves if they can't win the fight so that the one wishing doesn't have to do it themselves.

      @@lakkakka i dont believe people respect bravery for self serving purpouses, but because seeing someone do brave and courageous things motivates us too, giving us faith that we too can overcome our own obstacles just like the brave person. Also some people even debate wether or not free will exists at all, and nothing proves that there is free will better than people doing scary and difficult things even though every bone in their body and their minds tell them not to do it.

    Thanks, Ramsey. My father read me The Hobbit as a child and it's my favorite story. I've started my own meager journey with boxing. Every morning I wake up with thoughts saying I'm too old at 31 to be doing this, I'm too far behind, I'll never beat the younger crowd with more experience, more stamina, more strength than me, with what seems like every advantage, it's not worth enduring the pain and loss. But your video just makes me want to go deeper in spite of all of it, I don't really have the words to explain it well.

    Also I'm going to recommend a movie that I feel isn't viewed enough and tackles similar themes. The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013). Watch it if there's a lazy day where a movie can't be decided on. It's a bit slow of a start but when the ball starts rolling the momentum just keeps going.

      A year late, I know, but how did you do? I did the same thing last summer and lost 6-0 on points to a guy that trained and competed for years. I didn't get submitted, I escaped one of his attempts, and I got a reversal (would have been points in wrestling). After watching many of the other matches prior to mine, I had an "Oh, S&*$" moment but I found courage and forged ahead. My Dad, an ex Iowa wrestler, was very proud of me and said I had natural grappling talent. Due to bravery, I learned much about myself

    Excellent use of literary and historical allusions on conflict! To be fair tho' Bilbo had a massive advantage,namely, plot armor. Alexander like all great generals strived to balance between being a boss and a leader. It's one thing to risk yourself alone but another thing altogether to risk the lives of others along with you. As usual very thoughtful content,Coach.👍💪

    Thank you, for narrating this.
    For the exact reason of facing ones fear and overcoming it I have choosen this novel for my class. If read right it hopefully will inspire courage in those fearful and full of self-doubt. The passage leading to smaug "he fought the real battle in the tunnel alone" is so strong and inspiring (especially for those leaving for various reasons). This and "Turn!" by Gandalf when they are fleeing from goblin town and retake their destiny by facing down the orcs are the two strongest moments for me (in the first Bilbo can't yet face the orcs and fight but first has to go to the abyss, but that's only the method of storytelling the message stays the same through all adventures).

    Whoa this is a really good video! I love history and you hit the nail on the head here. However, certain battles were won by putting the opponent into an impossible situation. Caesar vs the Nervii is a good example. They fought to the death, even standing on their own comrades bodies while they were cut down. So TACTICS and overall strategy is the most important. Even if the opponent never retreats, if you have a better SYSTEM, you can win.

    I believe the anime "Attack on Titan" does a phenomenal job at expressing the sheer terror and horrors of battle and uncontrollable impending death, especially in the first couple seasons. The way the characters express their emotions I believe is extremely realistic, covering a large variety of psychological responses.

    Bilbo had the enormous advantage of often just being around conflict - with a ring of invisibility - without being a combatant; he had conversations with a dragon while someone else slew it. Bilbo had undeniable courage, but he was no Beowulf. One could argue that NO ONE in Thorin's party, including Gandalf, having any real idea of how Smaug WAS to be defeated is one of the great plot holes in the novel, really only remedied by the deux ex machina of Bard's black arrow shot.
    On the matter of escapes, while there is a big psychological difference in the mindset, as indicated, knowing how to get out a tight situation is the epitome of "improving your position" when the alternative is to otherwise be submitted within seconds if you don't know how.
    Self defense IS a result, not a technique, or a set of techniques - and it does include retreat from a dangerous situation and/or not getting in that situation in the first place. The best defense might be a strong offense in many situations - yet against, say, three opponents, it could also well be suicide. This is the problem with making sport-fighting assumptions in non-sport situations. One doesn't get in a cage fight out of any real interest in self defense because the fight, by definition, is merely voluntary, not necessary.
    “Fate often enough will spare a man if his courage holds.” - depending, of course, on what one believes is "often enough" at the time.
    Courage is doing what is necessary, regardless... emphasis on necessary, not regardless.
