I want to focus on these things: 1. Physique and appearance 2. Internal peace and psoitive mentality (Also includes getting closer to God) 3. Practicing my skills and hobbies 4. get better academically
What i really want to focus on this summer is... i. high school(try to master whatever i learnt and be 1 chapter advanced than others)(master it) ii. master CAD(computer aided designing) iii. finish atleast a single book(other than school books)
I am also a fellow Christian - and for the people reading this Comment, he is completely right. God is so fulfilling in your life and makes you so much more happy and gives you a correct state of mind while your growing closer to the Lord and Savior of us all, God. He gives us grace and peace and is the Creator. AMEN BROTHERS!
Focusing on these things; 1) Positivity and Peace 2) Physique and looks 3) Improving in places where I am lacking. Thanks, for making this video I know that this will definitely cause a huge positive changing point in people's live, keep making good videos like this.
I'm so upset because I tore a ligament in my ankle while playing badminton outside. I'm stuck in a brace until mid-July and can't really do any physical activities even though I had an entire plan + goal for exercising and improving in playing badminton. I guess this allows me to focus more on my cognitive abilities and improve more on academics. I'm going to focus on increasing muscle in my arms, playing chess, reading more books, praying, studying, and actively participate in my summer camps. Thank you for this video, it really helps a lot!
Halfway through my summer break. Been working out in the gym and keeping my discipline up even in my low energy days, and I'm reading a lot more books. Thanks for the extra inspiration man. I really have to add in studying in my daily schedule, since I'll be taking my college entrance exams next year. I've always been told to start early. The more time I have to learn and retain math, science, english, etc. the better, and the higher chance I'll get of passing the college entrance exams.
I was already liking your video, mainly because of the 4 hobbies you mentioned, and then you mentioned "Get closer to God". Congratulations for the video, gained new subscriber.
As a fellow Christian, I believe that God will guide me throughout this summer. Brother, thank you for posting this video.. I believe it appeared to me at the right time! Let’s get to grinding!
Honestly the only things i’ll mainly be focusing on is 3 thing: 1. Physique and mental health 2. Martial arts/Taekwondo 3. Highschool And thx for the tips lad love ur vids! Ur gonna make it to 1m someday ik it And i suggest having more Body language cause making ur head stiff will make the audience not listen that much
im subbing. this was very clear and straightforward unlike those other youtubers who gatekeep and dont tell anyone anything. im going to start these hobbies and learn new things. i know what do do now thanks
ty, i want to focus on the: 1. Programming and algorithms 2. Reading books 3. English 4. Sport 5. Meeting with friends,clubs and fing new friends 6. Video editing 7. Write diaries 8. Freelance Thank you very much!! You motivated me and gave me a lot of useful information
I am thankful for this video, brother. Helps a lot. I uninstalled UA-cam on my phone 5 months ago, I was addicted to UA-cam shorts and well, willpower is not infinite, so the best way to erradicate that urge is by avoiding the temptation in the first place by making it hard to get that instant gratification. My main goals are: Learn PCB crafting skills and programming stuff Read some books (I'll try the ones you recommended) Get a better physique and diet (and stronger willpower to accomplish pretty much all of that), try soccer (I used to hate it but meh, might as well try it out.) And keep learning something for the next course in high school. (I am spanish, hope my english was good lmao)
Thank you Matthew for these videos, not only you've had guided me to focus on my goals and improving myself in anyways but you also helped me to strengthen my relationship with God :) I just wanna say keep doing what you're doing because it really helps us!
I realy like that you mention to get closer to the God. Not many youtubers do that because they think that some peoples would hate them for that but you are right. God, especially the only true one (Christian) is able to change your life.
Stumbled across this video at around 1:50 am on a Tuesday, I’m currently reading how to win friends and influence people which I received as a gift by some amazing people at work when I asked the question “how do I become successful in business?” As for the whole purpose of this comment was to give thanks, something I stumbled upon scrolling on yt after a long day of work giving myself a reminder of what I need to do to improve myself, I am 16 years old so I still have a long road ahead of myself but I hope that my efforts will come into fruition in the future
Firstly, this video has already helped me tremendously, not just physically and mentally, but spiritually as well. My whole life I’ve been a devout Catholic, but recently I’ve been feeling far from God. The video helped me to get back on track. Second, I love the videos dude, keep up the hard work and never give up. God bless❤️🙏🙏
I feel like my mindset is good and I just want to work on my physique and reading more. One of the things that I have gotten into recently is watching a lot more educational videos weather about science, music, aerospace, etc. It feels a lot better to do something productive then to waste your time.
Dude, this is a great video! Thanks a lot, especially for that part at the end about God. I've been drifting away and need that encouragement! God is using you to bless people, keep up the good work. Never watched such a great video by a peer, great job. God bless you
I love this! I’ve been pursuing God again recently and I’ve noticed so much peace. I’ve also been wanting to better myself before I go back to school. Thanks man!
I stumbled into a bookstore and bought an amazing version of The Iliad. Have to admit, it’s a great read and that’s amazing advice. I’ve been reading and doing coding more, and even though I can’t say I’ve seen direct improvement from that, I at least feel better. This is great advice and God bless, brother. I’m sure we’re all going to make it out of this, we need more hopecore.
I want to focus on these four things this summer (I am a middle schooler) 1- I want and need to read books, it has so much value (as you mentioned :D) 2- learn more about Christianity 3- just go on walks more often, I need to lose weight so it will help a ton 4- study academically
I agree, but I feel the need to comment that in the last part on getting closer to God, its about attaining spiritual wealth and not focused on material wealth like money
i thought this was going to be some generic shitpost that was gonna say “watch skibidi toilet for 10 days straight to be a sigma alpha” but this is genuinely good information. thank you.
Already getting more into coding in C++ to prepare for college, picked up volleyball because of Haikyuu! (I am a libero) and therefore doing a lot of plyometrics and pickup matches in my local sports facility, starting to learn electric guitar and started watching more UA-cam documentary / storylike content (creators like Nexpo, Nick Crowley, neoexplains, fern, LEMMiNO). Wish me luck!
You should probably have mentioned that you could do some light studying before getting back to school. It makes you retain the information better and have a more confident start the next semester.
it's not "get better at drawing". Why? Because technically everyone can draw, some just never have the willpower to do so. Personally, if you want to be "better" it feels like it's more of just pressuring yourself to be the best. The thing is, no one is the best at anything, it's purely based on opinions and rankings. As an artist myself, trying to convince myself to get better actually caused me to get artblock and actually get stressed out. I do prefer the term, "get out of my artist comfort zone" since I mostly draw humans. I'm not giving advice, just saying /pos
I am currently 15,I fix Bicycles and I sell them but sometimes they are difficult to fix and i work around the problem with excessive thinking and i love hard work so that helps
I just want to say I appreciate this video. I wish UA-cam was full of content like this. Just helpful stuff. Now if you don't mind I'm off to go listen to a podcast about starting a business 👍
It's super refreshing to see another Christian talking about ordinary and motivating topics like this! Usually Christian content creators only focus on the religion itself which is great don't get me wrong but not gonna lie it just makes Christianity looks like an abnormal lifestyle completely separate from modern topics which gives it a bad rep. Keep up the great vids! You deserve soo many more subs!
Amazing video man, If there's any time to lock in, it's summer. Also, I recommend Cliffe Knechtle for Bible wisdom if you haven't heard of him already, definitely helped me rise up during society's expectations and pressures. Stay safe brother!
Helloooo 4th comment was feeling low was watching your videos and was about to close the app but saw one more video uploaded so am watching that as well Thank you for every guidance you gave .
i want to lean towards these hobbies! 1. unfortunately becoming a police officer used to be a dream job of mine but i can't do competitive athletic activities because of scoliosis. swimming however might work:) 2. chess would totally be something i'd look forward to getting into 3. awh dang... i have to be social :( well good news, i'm getting back into public school after 2 years of being pulled out of it! 4. art is my specialty. i've composed songs that people have liked as well, also i play the piano! i'd love to get into animating too, it's an absolute dream of mine. thank youu!
what i need to do over the summer (summer's just the best time to change, do it!!!) 1. my physique and overall body hygiene 2. try to learn how to improve my focus on things 3. gathering more information 4. learning to get out of my comfort zone, and starting to socialize with new people good luck to myself and you all out there, remember you got this! :)
So much wisdom in one video. I needed this! It's exactly what I needed. Thank you very much. I'm sure this channel will grow big. Personally, I'm a Muslim but I do indeed try my absolute best to get close to God at all times. Ameen.
hey i'd appreciate if anyone could drop a tip, i'm trying to get more fit/muscular because i have a bit of extra fat that i think could be muscles if i really commit , but i work from 8-9/15-17 depending on the week. time managment isn't really my strongest suit so i really don't know what to do with myself, but i do know i want to finally fulfill my dreams this summer. once again, thanks to anyone who does try to help, i'll update periodically. btw good luck with your own summer guys!
i'm from VietNam and i wanna talk with you, this is the most important video i have watched in this summer. And i like the ideas, the contents you are doing. Finally, I wish you good health, achieve your goals and your UA-cam channel will grow more and more. Thank you have a nice day❤
Summer break in 2 weeks, I'm only 15, but I'm definitely gonna do some of these things, I wanna come back to school feeling like "shit bruh I'm different" "I'm gonna show everyone my new self" Gonna update in a couple months, I actually will. 4th or 5th september when I restart school.
Thanks bro. All those hobbies kinda stressed me out but it made me realise I need at least one, I have never really had one. Just something to keep me from “dumb scrolling”. Maybe I’ll start a UA-cam channel about my Christian faith✝️
I want to focus on these things: 1. pre-learn geometry and chemistry courses before school starts 2. get better at chess (only 1400 rn) 3. read a lot of books

3:03 Nah man learning an instrument isn’t work for just one summer holidays. It’s something you learn at least 5 - 6 years and master your whole life. And also, the best way to learn it is to join music school or (quite worse imo) learning with a teacher
