Watching after a heartbreak 😅 if someone sees this comment keep liking it , so I could remember how broken I was today, and how stronger I will be on further days.
This man saved my life I am 15. Last year I had the worst mental and physical health. I was 38 kilos 4'10''. I had max 7hrs a night, I hated eating and I almost had 0 muscle. I played football for 30 mins a week MAX and played Minecraft 4 hrs a night. Today I am 5'6'' 60kilos. I exercise 5-6 times a week doing calisthenics, quit all games. I have a decent amount of muscle. Thank-you so much Hamza ❤
Logical and truthfulness seems to be missed nowadays in society. Great video onve again. Glad I pushed myself into hard situations when I was younger, always worked out
Im a teenage girl listening to these videos, I decided today to become a better person. So thank u Hamza for this. Ill comment in a couple months saying how I've improved
As a man who used to struggle with depression these are the most helpful things I can think of: -Take Risks, don't let the fear of failure stop you from trying something new or something great -Do things that genuinely scare you or that you're afraid of (Even little things like climbing onto a roof and helping to put up Christmas lights if you're afraid of heights or saying something to the cute cashier girl other than "hi" and "thanks") -Pursue an ambitious goal, one that a lot of people don't believe you can achieve (It doesn't even matter if you fail this because no matter what the pursuit of an ambitious goal will make you a better person and give you fulfillment) With that being said, do your best to succeed -Have a passion, basically this means to find a hobby that you enjoy so much that you will spend hours and hours getting better at it -Study history, pick a role model, and then analyze the traits of your role model and list the reasons why you admire them. Then start to emulate these traits in your everyday life and eventually you will become your own role model. -Don't ever quit something just because it's hard (You can quit a crappy job if it's not the right fit for you, but never quit solely based on the fact that something is difficult). Embrace challenges and look for opportunities to improve yourself mentally, physically, and spiritually. -Never put yourself down. Try not to think negative things about yourself and especially never say them out loud. You will think more highly of yourself when you say positive things about yourself, at the very least avoid putting yourself down on purpose. -Live purposefully. Have a direction for your life and if you don't already have one, make one. Decide what's most important to you and live accordingly. If you have a family or even a single loved one, your first priority (other than serving God if you're religious) should be to provide for them, to protect them, and to help them become the best version of themselves -Develop Integrity. I can't even explain how much this increases your self-repsect. Be honest, be trustworthy, don't cheat (unless you're in a street fight) and live with honor. -Find a hobby that you're really passionate about and strive to become a master at it -Finally, probably the most important thing I can say is to think less about yourself. Think less about yourself but not less of yourself. In other words, think about other people before you think about yourself, especially your family and loved ones. If you're focused on helping them with their problems I can promise you that your problems will become less important and less troublesome. Look for opportunities to help others and make them feel better about themselves. Nothing lifts you out of depression better than helping someone out of theirs. I hope this helps. I realize that some people are genetically predisposed to having a harder time with depression, but I believe that there's nothing you can't overcome with a strong mindset. In addition, I strongly believe that going through depression and having such terrible lows actually gives you the capacity to feel even greater happiness and joy. The reason I say this is because when you feel genuine joy after being depressed for so long you can't help but feel grateful. The beauty of life is that we are meant to experience the full range of human emotions, from happiness to anger to jealousy to despair to joy. We couldn't feel genuine happiness if we never knew what it was like to be sad. If I could talk to whoever is reading this face-to-face, what I would say to you would be simple: don't quit. A quote from Winston Churchill kept me going in times when I thought I had nothing left, he said: "If you're going through Hell, keep going." Everything in life can be and is meant to be an opportunity to make yourself better, and depression is no exception. Keep fighting, all of you are descended from warriors no matter what culture or country you are from. You wouldn't be here today if it weren't for the conquering spirit of your ancestors. Live a life that would make them proud. While most of us will not fight in physical wars, no one is exempt from the battlefield of life. Depression can be a battle every single day, every single second in some cases. Keep fighting, it will only get better. And the more you fight, the more you will gain respect for yourself. I've conquered my depression. Every now and then it will start to try and creep back into my mind but I don't let it. I destroy those feelings with action. I go lift weights, I go running, I listen to metal music, whatever it takes for me to regain my confidence. You can conquer depression, no matter how severe it is. That doesn't mean you'll never have days where you feel down, but it does mean that you'll have the strength to push through and do what you need to do as a man regardless of how you're feeling. Stay strong, stay hard, and fight like dragons 🐉 You're going to be very glad you did.
Thanks for sharing! Long story and I got curious. Deffinitely was worth reading it! Can agree on all except the part where you say helping people helps. Yes, it's true that you will feel better after helping people, but don't do it too much. I've been programmed (due to parents, school, environment) to think about someone else's feelings first instead of mines. I'm always ready to offer help if needed. So on a subconscious level I started to believe that I don't matter. I was/am neglecting myself completely. Thought I was worthless because I helped everyone around me and no one seems to care about my thoughts, my feelings, my opinions, interest in me. This has played a big role to feel depressed and to sink further into depression. Your story is another eye-opener for me, because it contains all the information/the steps I already knew, that have to be taken in order to get out of depression. Yet I have to begin taking action. I've nothing to add more on your tips and advices. Very well spoken and I wish you all the best!
@@DannyBlake holy shit man I got the same thing, I’ve always cared about other people more than me (I put some people on a pedestal) and I thought that maybe if they’re happy I’m happy. And then like what you said too, I never really cared abt myself. So now I’m on this self improvement journey too and making small progress.
My therapist told me to go easy on myself, and "it comes with time". Needless to say I stopped taking therapy. Then I found your videos months later. Changed my life. Thank you
Therapy definitely has room in your life, it’s just about finding the correct therapist. I only started my self improvement journey properly after I unpacked a lot of hurt and pain during therapy. Don’t take it easy on yourself on certain things but take it easy when it comes to progress, meaning don’t be harsh on yourself when you mess up but also try your absolute fucking best to never mess up. That’s the key to keep going on this journey; be kind to yourself but also be hungry and determined to improve every day.
Same here. Was a major nerd playing video-games all day, living just for video-games and TikTok, had no friends, only some on Discord. Had probably 5-7 hours of screen time. Now everyday i have less than 15 minutes of TikTok and Instagram combined. Working out with friends and spending life with friends improved my mental health, and now I wake up just to improve. Nofap for 3 years now. Thank you Hamza.
I have 3 years of sacrifice to myself (good diet, no alcohol, no parties, no sex with low quality girls, no weed, journaling all nights, meditation, monk mode without socialmedia. And the only thing that I regretful is hadn't started before. Thanx Hamza for that accountability message. We need to listen the uncomfortable thing to grow as men.
I'm currently a Jeffrey and I've found this video incredibly inspiring. The blunt honestly and brutality of your words is necessary in today's world and I cannot thank you enough. You've helped so many people improve themselves and, right now, I think you've just helped me.
First phase of leaving jeffrey position will probably be like ''i'll keep doing my shitty habits but now I know how bad it is and i hate it.'' It is a good sign, do not give up bro, and please do not get hyped up and give yourself 50 tasks for the next day, your brain's jeffrey side will convince u to quit good habits. Start slow and easy, get works done one at a time, do not lose yourself in self improvement or you'll end up with nothing. Love u, would like to hear about your progress in the future :)
I used to wake up at 1pm then immediately spend hours on TikTok. Then I would game from 8pm til 2 or 3am because I didnt know what else to do. Ive completely turned my life around and started lifting, meditating, journaling, reading. I've even begun making high quality self improvement videos. Thank you Hamza 😍🤩
Hey Hamza I just want to say that you have changed my life. Deleted Snapchat last year, deleted tiktok a few month ago, I turned off all notifcations for social media apps and life has been much better for me ever since. Less distractions and focus on the things I have to do, going to the gym, reading a chapter every night. Thank you!
As a 27 year old man who only discovered your channel within the last year, I have to say I wish someone with your mentality had entered my life a lot sooner. If I have anything to say to someone who is a late teen, or even 22- 23 years old, it is to take advantage of the time you still have. You have no idea how much progress you can make in such a short time, and you will have done it at a much earlier age.
Currently 24 turning 25 in February and I couldn’t agree more , wasted literally years of my life from 18-23 Bullshiting around playing video games , smoking weed , watching porn / Beating my Meat all the while knowing deep down that the person I was wasn’t the man I was meant to be in this life , I finally started looking at my life differently and making small but great adjustments threw out the year and now going into this year I’m all in on self improvement, & after a couple of weeks you feel soo amazing , 2 weeks in on a dofamine detox and I completely lost the urge to go back to my old habits , all it takes is a good few weeks to change your mindset and a good year to completely change your life around.
All makes sense. Yesterday I missed the gym, because I took a nap. I planned to sleep for 20 minutes, but as my alarm rang, I turned it off and slept until the next day. Now I feel bad about that, I could have done better. Friends, I tell you regret hurts more than not getting what you want in the moment. I deserved it...
Sometimes you fuckin need sleep tho. I used to train jiujitsu 6 days a week and destroyed my body. Now I take breaks when my joints are fucked and lift light or do calisthenics at home while watching a show. You need to go hard when you are a blob but when you have a good foundation built, you can afford rest days to refuel and reload,
@@johnnycage2746yes but there’s a time and place to do that stuff. You sleep at Night and you get good quality sleep and wake up refreshed and stronger. You shouldn’t plan for a 20 minute nap and wake up the next day.
Bro i just listened this video while working out and i feel like a beast. Thanks hamza for giving us the wisdom of masculinity. Praying to god that the matrix doesn't attack you.
You know Hamza, for some of us to hear you say "You feel that way because you deserve it", is actually a huge relief. Because what does that mean? It means we took some actions and got the result of it. That means if we stop doing those actions, the result of it will also go away. We are still in control of our own life, it's just the illusion that we're spiraling out of control that's bothering us. And if we step forward in the right direction, we'll get the result of that too. We're still in control of our own lives. Don't give that control away. We can change, and we must change.
3:30 I strongly disagree with this take Hamza. No one in this world deserves to feel the sui- word. But I do think some young men deserve to feel trash because that may motivate them to become better people. 4:02 Damn, you knew what I was going to say...the thing is bro, YOU think you deserved it, but everyone else thinks you didn't deserve it. 7:32 UA-cam will not take this kindly... 8:21 Some people actually don't become depressed or sui- as a "consequence of their actions." There are mental illnesses that some people developed either genetically, from their childhood traumas, or both. You're really good at psychology, Hamza. Don't go out like this. 16:50 Why does competition have to be "toxic"? This is goofy.
@@TheRealestTiller I see your point but look what happened with hamza. He thought he deserved those thoughts and look at him now, millions of dollars a year, millions of followers who are improving themselves because of him and an Adonis-like body.
So im pretty sure no one will see this but i am actually a young girl and ive been writing what i was proud of and what i will imprpve on every single night in my journal. This has helped me so much. It gave me better sleep (somehow) and ever since ive been doing that ive been drinking more water, eating less sugar, less calories, pushing myself to my limit whenever i work out and im still not at my goals yet but i have been getting there. And this is all bc i started watching hamza and took his advice seriously. Anyway you got this, please dont give up bc u will never know what could have been if u didnt work on ur goals
Hamza, that was a brutal video and parts of it hurt. I have been too comfortable recently and have made excuses. All I can do is apologize to myself, my ancestors and my future progeny for lapsing in my will to improve and change by starting with my mental health. It's time to do better because I'm the only one to blame. Thank you for calling me and yourself out. We all needed to hear it.
This man saved my life I used to be a porn addict, video game addict,internet addict I used to seek instant gratification all the time I used to fantasize abt girls all day now I fantasize about my goals But now 2 weeks in and I have bettered myself alot Thank you from the bottom of my heart Hamza
To become mentally stronger, do these things for a couple of months, thank me later. a. Be comfortable in being and grinding alone; b. Care little about the opnions of unimportant people; C. Delay instant-gratification activities; d. Make relationships and connections with people you might learn something valuable from; e. Do hard things. Even when you don't want to. - The Self-Improvement Academy -
Thank you Hamza for your amazing advise for life. Im am 16 years old, 5,7ft, 63kg, 12%body fat, bench 75kg and mentally tuff, thank you for boosting my disiplinity on working on my self and my business🤜🤛
This man saves my life . I was 60 kg 5ft5 . Now after 2 years. Hitted the gym. 6ft 1 and a half . 91 kilos of lean muscle. Lost my chubby ass fat. Genuinely . You are my hero . Thank you
You've been a great influence to help us become better than we were before. You and some other youtubers played a huge role in motivating me to try and help others as well through my videos, and I'm finding myself constantly learning more and more, so I thank you for this Hamza!
I’m literally at the gym doing leg raises with a medicine ball rn. Thanks for the message Hamza you’re videos always make me feel better and continue to motivate me.
don’t mind me nodding my head in agreement through the entire video. GREATEST feeling i’ve ever felt was doing the hard stuff these past years, finding hamza and realizing I sort of put myself through self improvement on my own. The greatest feeling has been watching these videos and changing the hatred i had for my past self to admiration and inspiration
The greatest words my father ever told me were "you're a weak man" I hated him so much for saying that,but as time progressed and my life changed.I've learned to appreciate those words,he was right,I was pathetic,it took me awhile to understand him,what he was trying to tell me Thank you father,you were right "I am,and I was weak". And I refuse that weakness,I will build myself,no matter what,.........I will improve I will kill all my enemies,my weaknesses,WHATEVER IT TAKES
I’m so glad you made this video and went this far emphasizing accountability. A lot of people need to hear this and I’m glad you’re helping us try to fix ourselves.
Hamza is the light in my dark times. I recently went through a hard break-up, and the past weeks made me realize how much of a pussy and lazy piece of shit I became. The reason is simple, I got too comfortable, since I thought I found the one. Hamza's videos have become therapy to me. The sadness and anger inside of me has motivated me to make a change. I quit porn, I quit video games, I work out almost every day, I read every day and started a side hustle. It might sound all great, but deep inside I'm still in pain. However, Instead of feeling sorry for myself and blaming other, it's time to take accountable for my emotions and take responsibility for this. I hope anyone going through hard times to finds a light. PS: don't ignore your emotions, since they will come back stronger. Live them and use them as fuel for your goals.
i have autism and i struggle with social skills and i dont go out much, i used to be addicted to 18+ stuff, i'am no longer addicted thanks to you and my family and i dont have much friends, i work hard in school and have quite alot of ambition and dont give up, people like me, dont give up on your life, thanks hamza
Same I also have autism and I’m also working on talking to more people, sad thing is, I’m in school (9th grade) and there been a couple girls that I know liked me but because of me being so nervous to speak to a girl and stuff like that, I began to notice them start to lose interest in me. Im happy for you and keep doing the best you can to strive for success bro
Thank you brother I am 17 years old just like u said addicted to porn, playing video games eating a lot of sweets and I am under weight. whenever I wanted to change my self it will only be for a 2 to 3 days change and again I came to my old self. Even though I know it will cause me bad things I still do it like I need it, recently I had a female friend who was pretty Good looking she talked to me almost every day. Then an Adonis came to my class he hit the gym he was buff and I am skinny. after that she didn't talk to me and was more interested to talk to him.I felt so bad and cried a lot because of my bad habits. but after watching your video today I guess it was me being a bitch. so I am gonna start my changing myself i have my responsibility to clear my parents debt,I want them to have a tension free life. I am gonna sick to waht u said hoping to change my self for my family THANK YOU HAMZA I hope i can change myself
Brother..I am 17 years old and I was suffering for depression,self doubts,anxiety,negativity,comparing,day dreaming,think about something often,feeling low on seeing others,pushed myself down.i was in this state for past 7 months.By known.By unknown I was a jeffery before. You gave me a clarity.You helped me to set a mindset to me.And I don't know how express,but you played an role in my life. I am gratefull that, I found your channel on pintrest. I am gratefully that,I have learned, prepared,created a stable mind,and about masculine man. I am gratefull for you. I am from INDIA,Tamilnadu. Until YT stays, your videos will help generations. Thank you brother.
HEY HAMZA I AM FROM INDIA MY FRIEND PREFFERED YOUR CHANNEL AND I WAS TOO FEMINE ADDICTED TO DOPAMINE WEAK BUT AFTER SEEING YOUR VEDIOS AND RELEASING MY MISTAKES I AM DOING PROGRESSIVE. THANK YOU SWO MUCH FOR MAKING THESE VEDIOS GOD BLESS YOU BRO. EMBRACE MASCULINITY , REJECT MODERNITY
Thank you Hamza, this is your best video in my opinion. I am a 19 year old man who is unfortunately suffering from a condition known as hypertonic pelvic floor. I’ve been slacking heavily and haven’t been doing the physical therapy necessary to overcome it. But I will start now. Big shoutout 🤘🏿
Two years ago I hated you Hamza, I thought that you thought you were this man who was greater than God. But when I was making my protein shake a year and a half ago I decided to give one of your videos a chance again. That video I believe was "make men strong again" and it motivated me and changed me I started researching how to increase testosterone how to become a better man and your videos out of everyone else's helped me the most.
Many athletes understand that the experience you had in you’re season grant you gratitude from just sticking with it and saying to to yourself, “I did it”
I have been doing gym for about 9 months now. I think my brain has been changing all this time bit by bit in the way that I rely on my daily training to counter the daily anxiety that builds up inside of me. 3-4 years ago, I was surrounded by fear as a stupid young adult, didn't have a father figure to make me do the hard things. So I got on medication to counter the effects of depression and anxiety. I used to think this was normal. Today, I am completely fine, absolutely don't need any medication for mental health. Something changed at some point in my life and undoubtedly, this change is still going through.
Hamza saved me I was addicted to video games for 8 years and they became boring so I had nothing to do with my life and I tried to end it all but I found you Hamza and you taught me about self improvement and I am now slowly leveling myself up and my mental health has became so much stronger thank you Hamza ♥️
I failed in my exam and now I am feeling very miserable, and I deserve it because my actions leads to feel bad and negative. But for the Tommorrow's exam I will prepare it. I have to sacrifice today for tomorrow. Thanks hamza for this you are like my elder brother....
This is gasoline for our mind.When you get full responsability for your actions, you literally motivate yourself to be better In what you did, and push harder than everyone else.
Love from India bro ❤ I am changed now because of you I am a man of 15 yrs with one testicle due to an accident but I am proud of myself that I am fuckin better than 98% of the boys of my age group I know fighting, I am having good physic , I am grasping knowledge , I am in spirituality , I was a person who use to fap two times a day And today its been qlmost a month who have nt fapped I ammm really thankful to your harsh and triggering word who made me a tough man both mentally and physically you are doing best in your field HATS OFF TO YOU brooooooooi❤❤
Hamza, good video. The only thing I would disagree with is hating yourself. Hating yourself and unprocessed childhood trauma is the reason why most people struggle with depression in the first place. Or at least, many people do. One of the best things you can do to really start living your life the way you want to live is to process that trauma, realize your actions. You can achieve this by being mindful, being available for yourself, realizing the reasoning behind your actions and just spend time with your emotions, thoughts instead of distractions that modern life brings us. But not receiving unconditional love as a child is one of the main reasons why we take actions that are often self destructive. It is the reason why we behave the way we do and do the things we do.
I never went to a therapist because I thought that was bullshit and it was. When I discovered Hamza. My life changed. I started eating more healthy. I started getting good sleep. I started being grateful for all the little things around me. Thank you Hamza 🤝
I honestly needed that slap in the face at the beginning. I do deserve how I feel cause of my actions. I am ready to truly change. And thank you for your honesty and vulnerability.
I began working out at the age of 14, I'm 17 as of writing this. I didn't have a Hamza back then to guide me, but can confirm that everything he is saying is absolutely accurate. I was overweight, had severe gyno, zero hobbies or social skills, and now I'm at around 15% body-fat, I have many hobbies and things that I do that I'm actually very good at, and I have way, WAY better social skills. The mentality in which Hamza is describing is difficult to obtain, and takes months of dedication and hard work, but once it's all said and done, you will be enormously grateful and glad that you turned your life around and are now looking forward to every coming day with ambition and excitement.
@@trevorcohen4285 Put yourself in uncomfortable situations as much as possible and force yourself out of your safe zone. Eventually socializing will go from severely uncomfortable to effortless.
it is crazy how in this channel, you can hear things that have never been said but still make sense. Like "I was weak and I deserved to feel depressed"
8:24 - 11:27 got goosebumps from how true this is many of my friends thought it was weird I stopped playing games with them when the problem was playing video games for a exponential amount of time so much time being put into something that wasn't contributing to myself or goals, Become aware of the things you do everyday and wether its pushing or pulling you away from your goals.
Going through cold turkey methadone withdrawals rn from 70mg per day after a perc/fent addiction. I deserve this suffering & I'm going to take my life back. Thanks for the reminder Hamza. I fucked up so I need to fix it myself
January 17th, 2023. I’ve spent the past year and a half doing everything you’ve addressed in your recent videos. Eating shit food, falling in and out of the gym, never fully committing myself to healthy eating or a proper fitness schedule and sitting inside all day watching UA-cam, scrolling TikTok & playing video games. I’m 6’3”, 115KG and somehow haven’t quite yet lost ALL muscle definition from my previous advances in the gym/body weight fitness. Today I will start to make a proper commitment to change, because I realise now the only person stopping myself from advancing and being where I want to be is me. I’m holding myself back and slowing my growth as a man and as a human being. I’m just using this comment section as a little diary. Thank you Hamza and thanks to everyone in these comments.
i can relate alot to hamza looking at my past. I was also a guy that partied alot,smoked alot of weed daily, only ate junkfood and wasted time by playing video games. Wouldn't neccesarily say that hamza changed me for the better. Even tho the tips and advice are amazing. You guys gotta realize by just watching these sorts of videos, your not accomplishing anything at all. The only one that is able to change you is yourself! btw don't stop watching these sorts of videos if you are a beginning ''self-improver'' , but learn from these videos and take action in real life. Im telling you now YOU ARE NOT A SELF IMPROVER JUST BECAUSE YOU WATCH THESE VIDEOS. So take action starting from today!! And i wish you all the best on your journey to succes :) (btw my english is not the best but i don't give a fuck. Just trying to get a message out here.)
Damn Hamza, that was an exceptional video. During the pausing of the video I actually became painfully aware that I let my mental state slip again. I had severe OCD and the last few weeks I was slacking, making it worse again, felt worse. It was my fault. Now I need to take care of myself. Thank You!
Hamza pls I really hope you read this comment Brother you changed my life my fucking life I can't belive I did it It seemed so fucking difficult to return back from the dark where I pushed myself But it's been 3 months of me following your channel. I crave for work now. I am not intrested fap anymore. I do your suggested workout 5 times every week. I feel so motivated these days. I am working on my skills in the stock markets. I am pulling a lot of girls (but I don't engage with them, I'm focusing on my work for now). I just want to say thank you brother❤️ I don't know how pay you back I am 16 now I will meet you in dubai when I grow up.
Hamza I‘ve been watching you for a kong time now, at the beginning I used to do exactly as you said. It bettered my mental health but now after a year I fell back to the bad habits, at first I‘ve seen the progression and would be grateful but I‘ve stopped. I don‘t know why but after I got thrown out of the flow with routines, delayed gratification ( which was 8 months ago) I wasn‘t able to get back to the good flow but struggled with bad mental health even tho I know what I need to do and have everything I need to do the good habits again. I‘m still trying but I keep on failing I don‘t know how to get in the perfect cycle I was in 8 months ago where I was getting gratification from being productive 24/7
I definitely slacked with way too much in my life in the last 6 months. Thanks Hamza for making me realise this. Now I can start working to get better. I’ve slacked with my studies, my exercise, my diet and my time i spend with my partner and family. I chose to dwell on stupid shit and not put in the effort.
You know what…I do deserve the confidence I have right now. Because I am indeed taking the right actions needed -The Gym ✅ - Taking Care Of My Appearance ✅ - Cutting Down On Junk Food ✅ - Focusing On My Course Work✅ - Earning Money At The Job I’m Currently At ✅
This video and his words have touched me in such a way that I even got chills. I don't know where I would be without Hamza. He is taking me places I thought I could never even dream of being.
I understand the point you’re making in this video. The notion though that those having suicidal thoughts deserve it is an extremely rash comment. I know your intentions are good but you have to tread carefully with these subjects. Many people have less control of their lives than we may have the privilege of having. Studies show that poor mental health is directly linked to poverty, urban living, neglectful childhoods etc. and not just giving in to the vices of the modern age. Everyone can make positive changes, but not everyone has the same freedom to make these changes readily. Again, I appreciate that your intentions are good but you have a huge platform and need to use it wisely. Peace and love brother.
@@LeatherNinja I appreciate the reply man, and I’m so glad to hear you’re in a better place now. I agree that everyone can make the right choices to move forwards, I just wanted to highlight that it won’t be as simple for everyone
The thing is, no one in this day and age we live in knows about boundaries and moderation. Everyone takes things to the extreme and thinks that some beliefs are absolute! And you know what: it's ok to be depressed. It's ok to be weak! But it's not ok to remain depressed and weak! Hamza also said it in a video: you can have a moment of weakness, but you need to stand up again. It's like the line Alfred told to Bruce Wayne in Batman Begins: "Why do we fall? So we can learn to get up again". No person with a brain will ever disregard a person's feelings, but he wont dwell on them either. He'll try to find solutions to the problem, and that's a fact.
I'm 14 years old and whenever I call with my friends who have seen that I workout and eat healthy and am in so much better shape than them, whenever I tell them I shower with cold water they call me weird and gross. I got called weird for being resilient. Just think about that for a minute. Thank you Hamza.
Great video Hamza, so many guys I know need to hear this. Doing the same thing over and over will not get you different results. It’s the definition of madness. Let’s all make those drastic changes to better ourselves boys
This is a Great Message to see from Hamza and it’s better to comprehend this logically instead of emotionally. Thank you Hamza for spreading this out there and providing the value of Mental Toughness.
last year has been tough and my dog died two weeks ago i nearly fell back into the bad habits. thank you for the words brother ill start right now to catch myself before ill lose all my progress.
was just done with my studies and clicked on this video by the end of the video :- 1. did 50 push ups 2. getting back to more study cant thank hamza enough man
Thanks Hamza, because of you I am finally taking accountability and I am stopping watching UA-cam during my free time to read books instead. Perfect last destruction of a video❤
This man is giving me hope to fight back. I am slightly older than then him and In the first time in my life, I gained more better. My mind wants to win, no matter what. I will be better. I will thank Hamza, very much.
My brother lives off teaching tae-kwon-do classes, he is almost thirty, and I remember asking him about his habits, how we got to where he is, and how he got discipline the way he did, he told me "Your body is like a wall, if it has graffiti and a bunch of junk on it, it won't matter if you take a shit on it, however, if its whitely painted, and you leave the smallest of stains, you are gonna notice" he was referencing to how easy it is for us not to notice bad habits right away, because everything in our view is full of bullshit

Average comment: When I was 8 years old I worked in the coal mines in London, I decided I could not work this job for the rest of my life so I started my own business with 9. When I was 10 I finally reached a million dollars monthly revenue and started Nofap. So as things settled down I started dating and married when I was 12, now I live happy in Dubai as a 14 year old with my family and 2 children. Thank you hamza for leading me to the right path.
i was misrable is was minorly depressed and i deserved it. you have had the best impact because i tried all these mental health improvement things that made me feel feminine then i came across you and i started to work out eat better learn how to ride a bike and became happier. you are one of the best influenses from men.
I am 17 and I listen to him everytime he is so inspiring and thank god that there are people who show you the bitter truth and make you better. While others just be happy just be king your a queen or your a king it's completely bullshit you should be hard on your selves
Hamza You are the savior of masculinity and I tell all this things to my friends and they think I am a werido and I feel bad for them how they don't know where they are heading in life
The last part made me think I am not working enough I had stopped to compare myself to others so I don't feel bad, I always made myself thnk one day I would be better, all I did was try to be a better version of me, but now you changed it. Thank you, Brother

This man saved my life
I am 15. Last year I had the worst mental and physical health. I was 38 kilos 4'10''. I had max 7hrs a night, I hated eating and I almost had 0 muscle. I played football for 30 mins a week MAX and played Minecraft 4 hrs a night. Today I am 5'6'' 60kilos. I exercise 5-6 times a week doing calisthenics, quit all games. I have a decent amount of muscle.
Thank-you so much Hamza ❤

No need we dont care
@@saggyb.anderson3531 cmon man
As a man who used to struggle with depression these are the most helpful things I can think of:
-Take Risks, don't let the fear of failure stop you from trying something new or something great
-Do things that genuinely scare you or that you're afraid of (Even little things like climbing onto a roof and helping to put up Christmas lights if you're afraid of heights or saying something to the cute cashier girl other than "hi" and "thanks")
-Pursue an ambitious goal, one that a lot of people don't believe you can achieve (It doesn't even matter if you fail this because no matter what the pursuit of an ambitious goal will make you a better person and give you fulfillment) With that being said, do your best to succeed
-Have a passion, basically this means to find a hobby that you enjoy so much that you will spend hours and hours getting better at it
-Study history, pick a role model, and then analyze the traits of your role model and list the reasons why you admire them. Then start to emulate these traits in your everyday life and eventually you will become your own role model.
-Don't ever quit something just because it's hard (You can quit a crappy job if it's not the right fit for you, but never quit solely based on the fact that something is difficult). Embrace challenges and look for opportunities to improve yourself mentally, physically, and spiritually.
-Never put yourself down. Try not to think negative things about yourself and especially never say them out loud. You will think more highly of yourself when you say positive things about yourself, at the very least avoid putting yourself down on purpose.
-Live purposefully. Have a direction for your life and if you don't already have one, make one. Decide what's most important to you and live accordingly. If you have a family or even a single loved one, your first priority (other than serving God if you're religious) should be to provide for them, to protect them, and to help them become the best version of themselves
-Develop Integrity. I can't even explain how much this increases your self-repsect. Be honest, be trustworthy, don't cheat (unless you're in a street fight) and live with honor.
-Find a hobby that you're really passionate about and strive to become a master at it
-Finally, probably the most important thing I can say is to think less about yourself. Think less about yourself but not less of yourself. In other words, think about other people before you think about yourself, especially your family and loved ones. If you're focused on helping them with their problems I can promise you that your problems will become less important and less troublesome. Look for opportunities to help others and make them feel better about themselves. Nothing lifts you out of depression better than helping someone out of theirs.
I hope this helps. I realize that some people are genetically predisposed to having a harder time with depression, but I believe that there's nothing you can't overcome with a strong mindset. In addition, I strongly believe that going through depression and having such terrible lows actually gives you the capacity to feel even greater happiness and joy. The reason I say this is because when you feel genuine joy after being depressed for so long you can't help but feel grateful.
The beauty of life is that we are meant to experience the full range of human emotions, from happiness to anger to jealousy to despair to joy. We couldn't feel genuine happiness if we never knew what it was like to be sad. If I could talk to whoever is reading this face-to-face, what I would say to you would be simple: don't quit. A quote from Winston Churchill kept me going in times when I thought I had nothing left, he said: "If you're going through Hell, keep going."
Everything in life can be and is meant to be an opportunity to make yourself better, and depression is no exception. Keep fighting, all of you are descended from warriors no matter what culture or country you are from. You wouldn't be here today if it weren't for the conquering spirit of your ancestors. Live a life that would make them proud. While most of us will not fight in physical wars, no one is exempt from the battlefield of life. Depression can be a battle every single day, every single second in some cases. Keep fighting, it will only get better. And the more you fight, the more you will gain respect for yourself. I've conquered my depression. Every now and then it will start to try and creep back into my mind but I don't let it. I destroy those feelings with action. I go lift weights, I go running, I listen to metal music, whatever it takes for me to regain my confidence.
You can conquer depression, no matter how severe it is. That doesn't mean you'll never have days where you feel down, but it does mean that you'll have the strength to push through and do what you need to do as a man regardless of how you're feeling. Stay strong, stay hard, and fight like dragons 🐉 You're going to be very glad you did.
Thanks for sharing! Long story and I got curious. Deffinitely was worth reading it!
Can agree on all except the part where you say helping people helps. Yes, it's true that you will feel better after helping people, but don't do it too much. I've been programmed (due to parents, school, environment) to think about someone else's feelings first instead of mines. I'm always ready to offer help if needed. So on a subconscious level I started to believe that I don't matter. I was/am neglecting myself completely. Thought I was worthless because I helped everyone around me and no one seems to care about my thoughts, my feelings, my opinions, interest in me. This has played a big role to feel depressed and to sink further into depression.
Your story is another eye-opener for me, because it contains all the information/the steps I already knew, that have to be taken in order to get out of depression. Yet I have to begin taking action. I've nothing to add more on your tips and advices.
Very well spoken and I wish you all the best!
thanks for beating the french
Amazing 👏
@@DannyBlake holy shit man I got the same thing, I’ve always cared about other people more than me (I put some people on a pedestal) and I thought that maybe if they’re happy I’m happy. And then like what you said too, I never really cared abt myself. So now I’m on this self improvement journey too and making small progress.
We’ll said
My therapist told me to go easy on myself, and "it comes with time". Needless to say I stopped taking therapy. Then I found your videos months later. Changed my life. Thank you
Therapist was basically right
Therapy definitely has room in your life, it’s just about finding the correct therapist. I only started my self improvement journey properly after I unpacked a lot of hurt and pain during therapy. Don’t take it easy on yourself on certain things but take it easy when it comes to progress, meaning don’t be harsh on yourself when you mess up but also try your absolute fucking best to never mess up. That’s the key to keep going on this journey; be kind to yourself but also be hungry and determined to improve every day.
@@littleasianpenis3263 right for women wrong for man.
Same here. Was a major nerd playing video-games all day, living just for video-games and TikTok, had no friends, only some on Discord. Had probably 5-7 hours of screen time. Now everyday i have less than 15 minutes of TikTok and Instagram combined. Working out with friends and spending life with friends improved my mental health, and now I wake up just to improve. Nofap for 3 years now. Thank you Hamza.
the worst lies? "you still have so much time" and "dont blame yourself so much".
I have 3 years of sacrifice to myself (good diet, no alcohol, no parties, no sex with low quality girls, no weed, journaling all nights, meditation, monk mode without socialmedia. And the only thing that I regretful is hadn't started before.
Thanx Hamza for that accountability message. We need to listen the uncomfortable thing to grow as men.
Respect
Only youtube as social media?
Good
Bro I am trying to join his discord server but it says invalid. What should I do
Amazing bro! I'm proud of you. Btw, what changes did you observe at yourself from daily meditation, journal and no social media?
I'm currently a Jeffrey and I've found this video incredibly inspiring. The blunt honestly and brutality of your words is necessary in today's world and I cannot thank you enough. You've helped so many people improve themselves and, right now, I think you've just helped me.
Now take action
Man right now
Go start working on your mental health
RIGHT NOW if you see this comment go meditate
First phase of leaving jeffrey position will probably be like ''i'll keep doing my shitty habits but now I know how bad it is and i hate it.'' It is a good sign, do not give up bro, and please do not get hyped up and give yourself 50 tasks for the next day, your brain's jeffrey side will convince u to quit good habits. Start slow and easy, get works done one at a time, do not lose yourself in self improvement or you'll end up with nothing. Love u, would like to hear about your progress in the future :)
Now, ask yourself:
"what would it take for me to become Adonis?"
“I’m currently a Jeffrey” 🤓😭
I used to wake up at 1pm then immediately spend hours on TikTok. Then I would game from 8pm til 2 or 3am because I didnt know what else to do. Ive completely turned my life around and started lifting, meditating, journaling, reading. I've even begun making high quality self improvement videos.
Thank you Hamza 😍🤩

Hey Hamza I just want to say that you have changed my life.

Less distractions and focus on the things I have to do, going to the gym, reading a chapter every night. Thank you!

Amazing stuff!

As a 27 year old man who only discovered your channel within the last year, I have to say I wish someone with your mentality had entered my life a lot sooner. If I have anything to say to someone who is a late teen, or even 22- 23 years old, it is to take advantage of the time you still have. You have no idea how much progress you can make in such a short time, and you will have done it at a much earlier age.
I came know this at 21
im 29 and say this daily to people, im still on a journey aswell 🔥
Currently 24 turning 25 in February and I couldn’t agree more , wasted literally years of my life from 18-23 Bullshiting around playing video games , smoking weed , watching porn / Beating my Meat all the while knowing deep down that the person I was wasn’t the man I was meant to be in this life , I finally started looking at my life differently and making small but great adjustments threw out the year and now going into this year I’m all in on self improvement, & after a couple of weeks you feel soo amazing , 2 weeks in on a dofamine detox and I completely lost the urge to go back to my old habits , all it takes is a good few weeks to change your mindset and a good year to completely change your life around.
@@wiegomyegoo7703 exact same boat as you, but I dont even care anymore. Do the self improvement stuff tho
I am 17 and I vow to never waste my time by indulging in unproductive ventures that will lead me to commit suicide by the time I'm 41.
15:30 I've been weak and soft to myself for 12 years.....now is the time to change
my life!
Thanks Hamza you're not like everyone.
Stay strong yall!
Do the hard work, especially when you don't feel like it
All makes sense.
Yesterday I missed the gym, because I took a nap. I planned to sleep for 20 minutes, but as my alarm rang, I turned it off and slept until the next day.
Now I feel bad about that, I could have done better.
Friends, I tell you regret hurts more than not getting what you want in the moment.
I deserved it...
Sometimes you fuckin need sleep tho. I used to train jiujitsu 6 days a week and destroyed my body. Now I take breaks when my joints are fucked and lift light or do calisthenics at home while watching a show.
You need to go hard when you are a blob but when you have a good foundation built, you can afford rest days to refuel and reload,
@@johnnycage2746yes but there’s a time and place to do that stuff. You sleep at Night and you get good quality sleep and wake up refreshed and stronger. You shouldn’t plan for a 20 minute nap and wake up the next day.
Bro i just listened this video while working out and i feel like a beast. Thanks hamza for giving us the wisdom of masculinity. Praying to god that the matrix doesn't attack you.
You know Hamza, for some of us to hear you say "You feel that way because you deserve it", is actually a huge relief. Because what does that mean?
It means we took some actions and got the result of it. That means if we stop doing those actions, the result of it will also go away.
We are still in control of our own life, it's just the illusion that we're spiraling out of control that's bothering us.
And if we step forward in the right direction, we'll get the result of that too.
We're still in control of our own lives. Don't give that control away.
We can change, and we must change.
You are right brother
" If you want to look good in front of thousands, you have to outwork thousands in front of nobody..." ~ Damian Lillard
3:30 I strongly disagree with this take Hamza. No one in this world deserves to feel the sui- word. But I do think some young men deserve to feel trash because that may motivate them to become better people.
4:02 Damn, you knew what I was going to say...the thing is bro, YOU think you deserved it, but everyone else thinks you didn't deserve it.
7:32 UA-cam will not take this kindly...
8:21 Some people actually don't become depressed or sui- as a "consequence of their actions." There are mental illnesses that some people developed either genetically, from their childhood traumas, or both. You're really good at psychology, Hamza. Don't go out like this.
16:50 Why does competition have to be "toxic"? This is goofy.
@@TheRealestTiller I see your point but look what happened with hamza. He thought he deserved those thoughts and look at him now, millions of dollars a year, millions of followers who are improving themselves because of him and an Adonis-like body.

dame time
So im pretty sure no one will see this but i am actually a young girl and ive been writing what i was proud of and what i will imprpve on every single night in my journal. This has helped me so much. It gave me better sleep (somehow) and ever since ive been doing that ive been drinking more water, eating less sugar, less calories, pushing myself to my limit whenever i work out and im still not at my goals yet but i have been getting there. And this is all bc i started watching hamza and took his advice seriously. Anyway you got this, please dont give up bc u will never know what could have been if u didnt work on ur goals
One person se this, and this person is telling you to keep working hard
keep at it soldier :)
Keep it up good luck
Good job, keep it up. 👌🏽
Ayyy u habesha too. Best of luck sis
Hamza, that was a brutal video and parts of it hurt. I have been too comfortable recently and have made excuses. All I can do is apologize to myself, my ancestors and my future progeny for lapsing in my will to improve and change by starting with my mental health. It's time to do better because I'm the only one to blame. Thank you for calling me and yourself out. We all needed to hear it.
Beautiful message and video. Now, lets get back to work and be serious about our life.
This man saved my life
I used to be a porn addict, video game addict,internet addict I used to seek instant gratification all the time
I used to fantasize abt girls all day now I fantasize about my goals
But now 2 weeks in and I have bettered myself alot
Thank you from the bottom of my heart

Stay strong bro you can do it
2 weeks?
That sounds like cope
I am on a 2 month streak now thanks to god, hamza and top g
2 weeks? Keep it up man. You are yet to completely escape dopamine addiction.
To become mentally stronger, do these things for a couple of months, thank me later.
a. Be comfortable in being and grinding alone;
b. Care little about the opnions of unimportant people;
C. Delay instant-gratification activities;
d. Make relationships and connections with people you might learn something valuable from;
e. Do hard things. Even when you don't want to.

You've been a great influence to help us become better than we were before. You and some other youtubers played a huge role in motivating me to try and help others as well through my videos, and I'm finding myself constantly learning more and more, so I thank you for this Hamza!
I’m literally at the gym doing leg raises with a medicine ball rn. Thanks for the message Hamza you’re videos always make me feel better and continue to motivate me.
Ey That’s good but remember that discipline > motivation
don’t mind me nodding my head in agreement through the entire video. GREATEST feeling i’ve ever felt was doing the hard stuff these past years, finding hamza and realizing I sort of put myself through self improvement on my own. The greatest feeling has been watching these videos and changing the hatred i had for my past self to admiration and inspiration
The greatest words my father ever told me were
"you're a weak man"
I hated him so much for saying that,but as time progressed and my life changed.I've learned to appreciate those words,he was right,I was pathetic,it took me awhile to understand him,what he was trying to tell me
Thank you father,you were right "I am,and I was weak". And I refuse that weakness,I will build myself,no matter what,.........I will improve
I will kill all my enemies,my weaknesses,WHATEVER IT TAKES
Good man
Sometimes it is good to listen harsh words.
I’m so glad you made this video and went this far emphasizing accountability. A lot of people need to hear this and I’m glad you’re helping us try to fix ourselves.
Hamza is the light in my dark times. I recently went through a hard break-up, and the past weeks made me realize how much of a pussy and lazy piece of shit I became. The reason is simple, I got too comfortable, since I thought I found the one.
Hamza's videos have become therapy to me. The sadness and anger inside of me has motivated me to make a change. I quit porn, I quit video games, I work out almost every day, I read every day and started a side hustle. It might sound all great, but deep inside I'm still in pain.
However, Instead of feeling sorry for myself and blaming other, it's time to take accountable for my emotions and take responsibility for this. I hope anyone going through hard times to finds a light.
PS: don't ignore your emotions, since they will come back stronger. Live them and use them as fuel for your goals.
i have autism and i struggle with social skills and i dont go out much, i used to be addicted to 18+ stuff, i'am no longer addicted thanks to you and my family and i dont have much friends, i work hard in school and have quite alot of ambition and dont give up, people like me, dont give up on your life, thanks hamza
Same I also have autism and I’m also working on talking to more people, sad thing is, I’m in school (9th grade) and there been a couple girls that I know liked me but because of me being so nervous to speak to a girl and stuff like that, I began to notice them start to lose interest in me.

Two years ago I hated you Hamza, I thought that you thought you were this man who was greater than God. But when I was making my protein shake a year and a half ago I decided to give one of your videos a chance again. That video I believe was "make men strong again" and it motivated me and changed me I started researching how to increase testosterone how to become a better man and your videos out of everyone else's helped me the most.
Many athletes understand that the experience you had in you’re season grant you gratitude from just sticking with it and saying to to yourself, “I did it”
I have been doing gym for about 9 months now. I think my brain has been changing all this time bit by bit in the way that I rely on my daily training to counter the daily anxiety that builds up inside of me.
3-4 years ago, I was surrounded by fear as a stupid young adult, didn't have a father figure to make me do the hard things. So I got on medication to counter the effects of depression and anxiety. I used to think this was normal.
Today, I am completely fine, absolutely don't need any medication for mental health. Something changed at some point in my life and undoubtedly, this change is still going through.
Hamza saved me I was addicted to video games for 8 years and they became boring so I had nothing to do with my life and I tried to end it all but I found you Hamza and you taught me about self improvement and I am now slowly leveling myself up and my mental health has became so much stronger thank you Hamza ♥️
I failed in my exam and now I am feeling very miserable, and I deserve it because my actions leads to feel bad and negative. But for the Tommorrow's exam I will prepare it. I have to sacrifice today for tomorrow. Thanks hamza for this you are like my elder brother....

Hamza, good video. The only thing I would disagree with is hating yourself. Hating yourself and unprocessed childhood trauma is the reason why most people struggle with depression in the first place. Or at least, many people do. One of the best things you can do to really start living your life the way you want to live is to process that trauma, realize your actions. You can achieve this by being mindful, being available for yourself, realizing the reasoning behind your actions and just spend time with your emotions, thoughts instead of distractions that modern life brings us. But not receiving unconditional love as a child is one of the main reasons why we take actions that are often self destructive. It is the reason why we behave the way we do and do the things we do.
I never went to a therapist because I thought that was bullshit and it was. When I discovered Hamza. My life changed. I started eating more healthy. I started getting good sleep. I started being grateful for all the little things around me. Thank you Hamza 🤝
This is so brutal, I kinda like it
I honestly needed that slap in the face at the beginning. I do deserve how I feel cause of my actions. I am ready to truly change. And thank you for your honesty and vulnerability.
I began working out at the age of 14, I'm 17 as of writing this. I didn't have a Hamza back then to guide me, but can confirm that everything he is saying is absolutely accurate. I was overweight, had severe gyno, zero hobbies or social skills, and now I'm at around 15% body-fat, I have many hobbies and things that I do that I'm actually very good at, and I have way, WAY better social skills. The mentality in which Hamza is describing is difficult to obtain, and takes months of dedication and hard work, but once it's all said and done, you will be enormously grateful and glad that you turned your life around and are now looking forward to every coming day with ambition and excitement.
I’m 14 and I started listening to Hamza. I also have no social skills can you tell me how you improved social skills
@@trevorcohen4285 Put yourself in uncomfortable situations as much as possible and force yourself out of your safe zone. Eventually socializing will go from severely uncomfortable to effortless.
@@Saynt-Nick thanks bro
it is crazy how in this channel, you can hear things that have never been said but still make sense. Like "I was weak and I deserved to feel depressed"
8:24 - 11:27 got goosebumps from how true this is many of my friends thought it was weird I stopped playing games with them when the problem was playing video games for a exponential amount of time so much time being put into something that wasn't contributing to myself or goals, Become aware of the things you do everyday and wether its pushing or pulling you away from your goals.
Going through cold turkey methadone withdrawals rn from 70mg per day after a perc/fent addiction. I deserve this suffering & I'm going to take my life back. Thanks for the reminder Hamza. I fucked up so I need to fix it myself
i liked when he told us to pause and reflect on something you did wrong, i instantly got up and fixed the ones i could thank you hamza
January 17th, 2023.
I’ve spent the past year and a half doing everything you’ve addressed in your recent videos. Eating shit food, falling in and out of the gym, never fully committing myself to healthy eating or a proper fitness schedule and sitting inside all day watching UA-cam, scrolling TikTok & playing video games. I’m 6’3”, 115KG and somehow haven’t quite yet lost ALL muscle definition from my previous advances in the gym/body weight fitness.
Today I will start to make a proper commitment to change, because I realise now the only person stopping myself from advancing and being where I want to be is me. I’m holding myself back and slowing my growth as a man and as a human being.
I’m just using this comment section as a little diary. Thank you Hamza and thanks to everyone in these comments.
Go on broski, stay hard

i can relate alot to hamza looking at my past. I was also a guy that partied alot,smoked alot of weed daily, only ate junkfood and wasted time by playing video games. Wouldn't neccesarily say that hamza changed me for the better. Even tho the tips and advice are amazing. You guys gotta realize by just watching these sorts of videos, your not accomplishing anything at all. The only one that is able to change you is yourself! btw don't stop watching these sorts of videos if you are a beginning ''self-improver'' , but learn from these videos and take action in real life. Im telling you now YOU ARE NOT A SELF IMPROVER JUST BECAUSE YOU WATCH THESE VIDEOS. So take action starting from today!! And i wish you all the best on your journey to succes :)
(btw my english is not the best but i don't give a fuck. Just trying to get a message out here.)
Damn Hamza, that was an exceptional video. During the pausing of the video I actually became painfully aware that I let my mental state slip again. I had severe OCD and the last few weeks I was slacking, making it worse again, felt worse. It was my fault. Now I need to take care of myself. Thank You!
I was once depressed and filled with a self-hatred that almost manifested into my end, and I was 8. I wasn’t mentally tough enough to end myself.
Truth that needs to be said
Hamza pls I really hope you read this comment
Brother you changed my life my fucking life
I can't belive I did it
It seemed so fucking difficult to return back from the dark where I pushed myself
But it's been 3 months of me following your channel.
I crave for work now. I am not intrested fap anymore. I do your suggested workout 5 times every week. I feel so motivated these days. I am working on my skills in the stock markets. I am pulling a lot of girls (but I don't engage with them, I'm focusing on my work for now).
I just want to say thank you brother❤️
I don't know how pay you back
I am 16 now I will meet you in dubai when I grow up.
Hamza I‘ve been watching you for a kong time now, at the beginning I used to do exactly as you said. It bettered my mental health but now after a year I fell back to the bad habits, at first I‘ve seen the progression and would be grateful but I‘ve stopped. I don‘t know why but after I got thrown out of the flow with routines, delayed gratification ( which was 8 months ago) I wasn‘t able to get back to the good flow but struggled with bad mental health even tho I know what I need to do and have everything I need to do the good habits again. I‘m still trying but I keep on failing I don‘t know how to get in the perfect cycle I was in 8 months ago where I was getting gratification from being productive 24/7
I definitely slacked with way too much in my life in the last 6 months. Thanks Hamza for making me realise this. Now I can start working to get better. I’ve slacked with my studies, my exercise, my diet and my time i spend with my partner and family. I chose to dwell on stupid shit and not put in the effort.
"Sacrifice today for tomorrow."
Wise words
Thank you for your help Hamza "I am getting stronger!"
You know what…I do deserve the confidence I have right now. Because I am indeed taking the right actions needed
-The Gym ✅
- Taking Care Of My Appearance ✅
- Cutting Down On Junk Food ✅
- Focusing On My Course Work✅
- Earning Money At The Job I’m Currently At ✅

This video and his words have touched me in such a way that I even got chills. I don't know where I would be without Hamza. He is taking me places I thought I could never even dream of being.
CHILLS? is a man speaking that intoxicating for you
Hamza yelling at you that your life sucks is the best motivational feeling you can have!
I understand the point you’re making in this video. The notion though that those having suicidal thoughts deserve it is an extremely rash comment. I know your intentions are good but you have to tread carefully with these subjects. Many people have less control of their lives than we may have the privilege of having. Studies show that poor mental health is directly linked to poverty, urban living, neglectful childhoods etc. and not just giving in to the vices of the modern age. Everyone can make positive changes, but not everyone has the same freedom to make these changes readily. Again, I appreciate that your intentions are good but you have a huge platform and need to use it wisely. Peace and love brother.
@@LeatherNinja I appreciate the reply man, and I’m so glad to hear you’re in a better place now. I agree that everyone can make the right choices to move forwards, I just wanted to highlight that it won’t be as simple for everyone
The thing is, no one in this day and age we live in knows about boundaries and moderation. Everyone takes things to the extreme and thinks that some beliefs are absolute! And you know what: it's ok to be depressed. It's ok to be weak! But it's not ok to remain depressed and weak! Hamza also said it in a video: you can have a moment of weakness, but you need to stand up again. It's like the line Alfred told to Bruce Wayne in Batman Begins: "Why do we fall? So we can learn to get up again".
No person with a brain will ever disregard a person's feelings, but he wont dwell on them either. He'll try to find solutions to the problem, and that's a fact.
You're the real hero bud. Keep sharing knowledge from your real experiences.
I'm 14 years old and whenever I call with my friends who have seen that I workout and eat healthy and am in so much better shape than them, whenever I tell them I shower with cold water they call me weird and gross. I got called weird for being resilient. Just think about that for a minute. Thank you Hamza.
Keep going bro I’m struggling rn I’m 15 and I’m skinny fat I feel horrible I’m trying to get my life back on track
@@SKILLED_SKY7rome wasnt built in a day, it was built everyday, for thousands of days
Me to bro

Have you started now? Gotta keep you accountable 😂
I need this video on repeat in my head
You changed my life Hamza.. ❤😭😭
Great video Hamza, so many guys I know need to hear this. Doing the same thing over and over will not get you different results. It’s the definition of madness. Let’s all make those drastic changes to better ourselves boys
vaas?
This is a Great Message to see from Hamza and it’s better to comprehend this logically instead of emotionally. Thank you Hamza for spreading this out there and providing the value of Mental Toughness.
This man is giving me the reason to live thank you so much you helped me so much and I’m alive because of u ❤
last year has been tough and my dog died two weeks ago i nearly fell back into the bad habits. thank you for the words brother ill start right now to catch myself before ill lose all my progress.
was just done with my studies and clicked on this video
by the end of the video :-
1. did 50 push ups
2. getting back to more study
cant thank hamza enough man
Thanks Hamza, because of you I am finally taking accountability and I am stopping watching UA-cam during my free time to read books instead. Perfect last destruction of a video❤
This man saved lots of lives by saying bitter truth ❤
Adonis is crazy for climbing Mount Everest without oxygen
Hamzas brutally honesty is what makes his advice and words extremely valuable
This man is giving me hope to fight back. I am slightly older than then him and In the first time in my life, I gained more better. My mind wants to win, no matter what. I will be better. I will thank Hamza, very much.

My brother lives off teaching tae-kwon-do classes, he is almost thirty, and I remember asking him about his habits, how we got to where he is, and how he got discipline the way he did, he told me "Your body is like a wall, if it has graffiti and a bunch of junk on it, it won't matter if you take a shit on it, however, if its whitely painted, and you leave the smallest of stains, you are gonna notice" he was referencing to how easy it is for us not to notice bad habits right away, because everything in our view is full of bullshit
Sacrifice today for tomorrow
Thank you Hamza bhai ... sending gratitude from Durban, South Africa 🇿🇦
"...YOU DESERVE WHAT YOU CHOOSE" Hamza is right Kings.
The real way to become mentally tough. To get insane confidence and belief in yourself. To get total emotional self control and be the man who can be relied upon to keep his head in a crisis or under extreme pressure.
Lead yourself and shape your own destiny. Generate your own ideas, form your own plans execute those plans to materialise anything you set your mind to.
All fully explained in detail exactly how.
Suitable for any man who wants to optimise his life.

Average comment:
When I was 8 years old I worked in the coal mines in London, I decided I could not work this job for the rest of my life so I started my own business with 9. When I was 10 I finally reached a million dollars monthly revenue and started Nofap. So as things settled down I started dating and married when I was 12, now I live happy in Dubai as a 14 year old with my family and 2 children. Thank you hamza for leading me to the right path.
Me watching this at 3 am🗿
gonna be honest man your analogy of Edinburgh being the source of depression is 100% accurate; well done
i was misrable is was minorly depressed and i deserved it. you have had the best impact because i tried all these mental health improvement things that made me feel feminine then i came across you and i started to work out eat better learn how to ride a bike and became happier. you are one of the best influenses from men.
I do think becoming mentally tough is part of becoming a man :)
Follow Jesus.
WOW IM ACTUALLY FIRST INSANE❤
I am 17 and I listen to him everytime he is so inspiring and thank god that there are people who show you the bitter truth and make you better. While others just be happy just be king your a queen or your a king it's completely bullshit you should be hard on your selves
Hamza You are the savior of masculinity and I tell all this things to my friends and they think I am a werido and I feel bad for them how they don't know where they are heading in life
The last part made me think I am not working enough I had stopped to compare myself to others so I don't feel bad, I always made myself thnk one day I would be better, all I did was try to be a better version of me, but now you changed it.
Thank you, Brother
