@@TruthAplomado it means when u find out what u like dont fuck around tryna find something else and start working in it rather than waiting for "later"
@@TruthAplomado for me, defining yourself is when you do something so often, so that its a part of your lifestyle, making it so much of a part of you that people think of that when they think of you. Like people who drink and smoke all day, thats what they're known for. If you spend every day training for a fight then they'll think of you as a fighter.
how will you define yourself if you can't even see yourself? start with seeking. realize the power of "I don't know", which is growth. while "I know" limits you.
Matt Brown story motivated me i started MMA at the age of 19 i always worked in heavy shitty jobs and also used to be a junky and tried to gather money to pay my monthly MMA gym and i cutted toxic friends out of my life cause they always told me i was to late to start MMA or that i don’t look much of a fighter and now i feel much better on my own and now im 23 years old with only 1 MMA fight so far👊. Thank you Matt for your story.
@@shauntaylor2362 Keep going bro and if you plan on competing just remember there’s always gonna be people training probably as hard as you so keep that in mind, and train twice as harder as everyone else in your gym. its a long way brother but with a strong mindset you’ll be fine.
@JEFM Bumby road man so far i got one Draw and a loss. I got depressed for a while but im still getting my shit together and training even more harder than before. Next time I’ll make sure to win! And I know it’s tough finding a job bro or paying for your classes you just got to do one thing at a time first the job than your MMA career. For the job find a suitable schedule where you have time to go training later in the afternoon depending on your schedule classes. Have patience and faith bro thats how i do it.
@Eight Loco I had to quit other jobs that i had cause they didn’t give me the schedule i needed so now i applied on Amazon fresh they did give me the schedule i needed they let me pick the days off that i want.
@@zackjacobson1987 This is clearly not Callen's fan. But I've heard about him too. Just one weird dude. Supporting Callen through everything these past few years.
Coming from a nobody.. this is so inspirational too me.. I’m on the verge of suicide everyday and things like this really make me feel much better.. knowing I have a chance to overcome my problems. I have so much respect for Matt Brown now.
Best way is to give yourself a date e.g. I'm going to stop Every thing at the start of next month or next week etc. But you need a hobby to keep you occupied once you do stop all the bad things otherwise you won't have anything to look forward to. For a lot of people that hobby can be a combat sport.
Want to know the secret to achieving what you want to achieve? It's really simple, 4 words, *JUST FUCKING DO IT* . When your mind starts to bring up "But this.. but that.." you say NO, and JUST FUCKING DO IT. You will retrain your mind in time. The mind doesn't care about what you say, it will obey commands.. so if you say to yourself "I can't do that", then you WON'T.. but if you say "I'm going to do ____"... your mind will look for the solutions. Do not listen to the naysayers, they are projecting their misery onto you and YOU are better than that.
Jiboia Jinn Some of the strongest people in the world have been through some the worst situations, you’ve had hardship, channel that energy into something you like and chase it
Jiboia Jinn Hope you’re doing better when you typed that comment I was going through a depression of everyday screwups it’s all about the little things you miss when you’re away from them, use technology as a funnel for happiness I ride a bike and listen to music when I’m not uploading videos or cruisin around or hanging out with friends, keep your circle small when you find people that respect you, you’ll notice they encourage you to do good, never speak negatively to you or about you and it’s a bonus if they’ll share food or money with you instead of it being the other way around. God bless.
@Victor Palacios yep and I hated Jeremy may for a long time then ran into dude randomly and he signed my dvd of that season of tuf. So now I don't really dislike him 😂 but yeah dude was so outmatched with Brown and that's at 185 where Matt's undersized
Matt's a warrior man. He's never been bound to be a champion but he's definitely a true fighter and no matter who his opponent is, I've always tuned in. Glad that he overcame his demons and became successful. Nothing but respect for the immortal.
If you’re ever depressed because u haven’t been laid in a while, just remind yourself that all the hot girls shit stinks. That gets me over it when I go through droughts lmao
Bro honestly this podcast started my mma career because of where I am in life. mentally as a drug addict, "I can't wait to get more of that" .. *starts mma career
Lol i got in one fight with like the best fighter in my school and fucked him up and thats what got me in love with fighting honestly i fucking knock his ass out and it just felt so right as fucked up as it sounds
@@PearlDrummerFTW oh, yeah. You would get over it in training too if you sparred. The first time you get beaten down really bad, your fine cuz you have already had the worst of it.
I did this the other way round. Started boxing when i was 12yr old, moved onto thai boxing and BJJ at 13.. got my black belt at 19 stopped training full time at 20yr old. Then became a machinist 🤣 7 years have gone by now, i still do a little thai boxing to keep my foot in but not much. I feel like the boat has sailed with it now unfortunately.
This is just one of the reasons why the fight game is so special. Every sort of background you could possibly think of is represented in the athletes who choose this game. In regards to Matt and his past struggles with substances, I suppose it's better to have been a drug addict and then become a successufl fighter, which is the stark contrast to the image of the successful fighter who had it all and lost it to substances.
This interview was awesome. So many times I've watched UFC and when Matt Brown enters the octogon my mind goes "Oh damn son, some shit is about to pop off. Do not blink!" I respect his fighting style a lot. He makes people go to sleep. Legend.
The immortal. Lol that reminds me of what Carlos Condit said before their fight. "The Immortal. I'll put his name to the test." That made me legit laugh aloud right before a tense highly anticipated fight.
I’ve always been a huge Mat Brown fan , it’s crazy because if it wasn’t for his accent I would swear he was British , he talks exactly like some crazy fearless Scotsman or English would talk , he don’t talk for praise he just says it how it is …… #LEGEND
My issue was when I got locked up , I was shown more respect in there and people were more loyal legit and kept there words , people said hello in there and talk fo U without any motive just to talk, when I got out everyone seemed unappy and depressed made me fall back into drugs to cope with the negativity around me no matter what I do or go negative people are drawn
Im 31 and ive thought about it hard. I think I want to fight. I have a boxing background. And a little bit of jiu-jitsu. Fuck what people say. Im gonna do it.
@toronto.vor.narkoman okay so you say hes shit and then someone disputes the bullshit you're talking and then you say oh well hes still annoying, why didnt you just say that from the start
"I saw the side of you that only when you're older you will see too." I saw older Matt Brown in this video. He'll mellow out, be more compassionate, slightly distrustful, and actually pretty wise. Quite a different individual to be honest.
