Not a vet but suffer from PTSD and anxiety. My mom committed suicide and I found her. Just saying that to preface my psychological condition. Point is I started getting up at 4:30am, I workout for 45 minutes, and then I walk about 5 miles every morning. I lost a bunch of weight and have put on some good muscle. Physical pain reduced as well. Also that long walk allows time to process. Thank y’all for y’all’s service. From national guard to navy SEALS and first responders, you ladies and gents are amazing. God bless y’all.
man.. Im sorry to hear that dude. I had the same thing happen too me with my brother on an accidental prescription overdose. I hope you have found some peace. between deployments to iraq and losing both my older brothers a year apart all I learned was that time is the most important thing to healing PTSD
@@adharjanadb yes sir. Ten years since she shot herself and I can talk about it now. Jesus bless you. I pray for your peace and anyone else who has seen the absolute horrors this existence can bring. I found I’m tougher than hell now. Maybe my experience, although not found on the field of battle, can help others. Thank you for your service.
I’m a therapist on a suicide prevention/hotline and this is great stuff- adding structure and routines are a great way for us all to have mini victories. THANK YOU!!!!
75, up at 4 am, water,,coffee, Bible, 20 strict push-ups, loaded carry for 1/3 mi, 20 more push-ups, 5 wind sprints, jog/run that 1/3 mile again, all before the sun comes peeking over the mountain. The Lord is good. Peace be with you all. Great advise in these troubled times.
I appreciate this so much. Just had my coffee and maxed on pushups till my baby started crying. “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17
As he said in the video, read whatever catches your attention and makes you think, reflect, whatever works for you, scientific magazine, bible proverbs, a good mistery novel, it's up to you to find what works for you 🥰
I appreciate you posting these kind of videos. I’m a 19 years old young man trying to become the best I can be. In my generation there aren’t many good ones left.
Good Man. You have eyes. Stay away from your age range. Shoot, stay away from everyone. Keep social, love humanity, but there are just too many traps these days. Don't get anyone pregnant. If you meet someone, keep it to where you don't risk anything. If you are the jealous type, drop that. I've never had to deal, I'll just walk away. Keep that in mind. Until you have at least a 5 year history with no betrayals, then think about getting serious.. I'm not going to give you the info that you don't need right now. Wouldn't want to get you down, just stick to what I advise and try to enjoy everyday. Fill yourself with book knowledge. Stay offf of the internet for your schooling. You can reference things now and again. Always read three angles to a topic, use morals and come to your own conclusions. don't let anyone try to set you against anyone for no reason. Always get both sides to a story. Learn to cook. I wouldn't eat out at all, especially these days. please learn to love beans, if you don't already. That's the super food that will get you the most benefit of anything on earth. You can get 90% of what you need to function properly. Don't drink tap water, unless you need to. Damn. I'll stop now. Just to end on a funny note If u worry about busting ass all the time from beans, don't worry, your stomach will acclimate to them and it will go away. I've never had that problem though.😂
I have schizophrenia and videos like this help make me mentally stronger everyday when I'm having a really bad day. It's all mental and even though I won't ever be healed these videos give me strength. Thanks. 🙌
Keep seeing your psychiatrist take the meds exercise eat healthy get a lot of sleep be around positive people don’t be too hard on yourself God is good
You can be healed. It's up to you to choose it. Place faith in Jesus name and be amazed at his healing touch. It usually won't be instantaneous. It may take some time to grow, but he will lead you to the revelations you need so you can overcome. If you will choose to trust in him. I'll be praying for you.
Why can't you be healed? God made you my friend and God don't make mistakes ! If you work at it and trust in God you can do and you can heal anything! God bless you my friend, I pray that the Lord heals your mind.
First thing i do is take a cold water shower even in the dead of winter. My life has always been hard. My parents were both narcisists that abused me and my brother. Ive lived through so much shit. These little things that happen in life just dont faze me much anymore. I got knocked out of a derrick working in the oilfield when i was just 18. Fell 35 ft or so broke a lot of bones etc. So i live in a state of constant aches and pains. Im 53 now. So im used to it. Ive also learned i am a sigma male. Even when im dead ass tired and over worked etc. I just keep putting one foot in front of the other. Sad thing is i can still work harder then a lot of men nowadays. I try to stay in good physical condition. That helps with my mental condition. If your feeling down, dont wallow in it. Find something positive to do. ABOVE ALL BE GRATEFUL FOR THE THINGS YOU HAVE. KEEP A LINE OPEN TO GOD AND WATCH FOR HIS SIGNS. Getting older is what seperates the strong from the weak ive learned. The goal is to make to the end of life with your dignity. SO MANY people give up and commit suicide, drink themselves to death. 3/4 of the people i group up with and went to school with are already dead. Be proud of what youve accomplished. Life is hard if you make it hard. ENJOY being alive. Take a minute have a cup of coffee. Go outside walk around the yard. Listen to real life not the life we sometimes get caught up in. Go outside at night listen to the crickets look up at the stars. The world really is a beautiful place.
I read it everyday and go into "battle" with unbelievers who like to brag how there is no God. It's not really a battle, God has ALL the evidence and they have NONE.
Most of my anxiety stems from self doubt and past failures . It pays to not overthink for sure. I absolutely agree . Simply shortening mental landscape to getting thru the next few hours seems to help me. If I think about everything, my noggin wants to explode…thank you for sharing brother…great vid
This is what I'm going through. Over thinking can put a torment on your. Brain. Instead. Trying to calm your though and be in the moment before going about your notifications. Thanks brother.
What I am impressed with is this guy is the real deal and after all he has been through is able to show empathy towards others and be approachable and real. He is able to communicate with us and teach us. This is really wonderful sir, I thank you so very much for the video. You have my complete respect.
When I was going through my divorce, I had debilitating anxiety. The only thing that killed it was a 3-4 mile run. I would wake up at 3am and just go for a run. What I didn't have control over was my thoughts. Stinkin thinkin. Gotta get the thoughts under control.👍
I pray every single morning with my 4 year old. Always have and now he does it. I won’t touch my phone before it either. I center in gratitude and a joyful moment or pillow talk with him. I’m so thankful to work from home.
My anxiety is getting worse as I get older. My mother passed away when I was 15 years old. I struggled with depression and anxiety and have so many issues with questioning my own mortality as I am a father of 3. As former pro athlete I wake up 5 am to workout for 30 minutes! keeps my mind in the present.
Coffee is the key start of the day for me. I do my Bible App first thing, then instead of consuming content, I post a #Coffeeup post every morning with motivational posts to get my mind right. It started years ago and has a nice following now. Helps adjust my mentality for the day
Wow! You struck a nerve. The right one. I needed this. I'm 55 and the first thing I do is get up and have coffee and look at UA-cam videos. It's a vicious cycle. Your recommendations are fantastic and I really think it's going to help me break my cycle. Thanks for the advice and I love the reading THE book part.
Thank You Thank You Thank You Chadd!!! 🙌🙏💖 Your advice, your wisdom and simplicity are making a difference in my life!!! 🙌 I 💖 it, I 💖 it, I 💖 it!!! 🙌💪💪🎉🎉 I couldn't be more grateful to God for directing my steps to your channel, and to you for free and freely sharing your amazing wisdom with the rest of us!! 🤗💖 Thank you for your Service Sir 🫡🇺🇸 💖 You explain things in such a simple and remarkable way, that you remind me of two things: Psalm 131:1, and Albert Einstein's quote: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." Thanks again and God bless you and yours 🙌🙏💖
Amen. The scripture is the glue. Readies our mind to the leading of the Spirit of Christ. I'm looking forward to this series. I'm grateful you popped up in my que. So far our mornings are very similar. Grace and Peace to you my brother
Great advice Sir! I workout in the morning to help reduce stress! I like about what you said about our minds jumping forward to what stresses us out. I also like what you said about staying off your phone first thing in the morning.
Chad I just listened to your podcast from a year ago with Andy Stumpf. Awesome job boldy and unashamedly proclaming the gospel! Wow - just awesome! Keep kicking butt for Christ! 💪✝️
A buddy of mine sent me this link because it's almost word for word my exact process to begin every day where I end up feeling even moderately successful. Great to hear someone sharing methods that anyone can replicate and that actually WORK.
This may sound weird but establishing a fish tank helped me with anxiety faster than anything. They are extremely peaceful to watch especially with coffee in the morning dropping some fish flakes.
Thank you for your insights brother. Discipline… plan your morning success by setting the standard before you hit the rack the night before. Before my feet hit the ground I’m thanking the Lord and praising his goodness. This helps me to have a thankful mindset rather than a complaining mindset. I’m tire but I get to spend time with the Lord, what a privilege. Coffee, prayer, and read and process scripture. This gets me ready for the challenges of the day. Matthew 6:33 ESV But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Just my routine… 🤠
Don’t see 6:30PM I’m up 5 days a week at 2:30AM i workout 7 days a week,but your right on the phone I need to take my half hr of coffee and mental reflection and put it into reading,god has blessed me with a mind I’m finding out after sobriety this past 3yrs I’m up to 30mls on my big runs now and everyday is a blessed day….Thank you Sir for the excellent content.
It was in the spring on a sunny day I saw a good boy turn and go the wrong way. He was too busy looking hard as stone to ever realize he was all alone. Don’t be that guy!! Keep it simple!! Embrace life. Live your life with the end in mind. Awesome video!!
Your channel is awesome! Surprisingly I am a 72 yr old woman, viewing Spec Op videos, for my own PTSD from an auto accident. The doc explained to me how the accident was similar to being hit by artillery or rolling over an IED and then waking up to the aftermath. I lost my husband of 26 years that night. Rough shit. And it's been one day at a time since then. Your videos really break down processes that matter. Imma Texas girl so, when I say, I appreciate you, you know I mean it. Thank you, young man!
Love journaling and reading upon rising, so true. Reading is fundamental to true knowledge. You cannot make this up. Books are everything! Great work chadd
I'm a momma of 7, i try to stick to a familiar routine for the kids. we start our day with chores then have breakfast and read together at the table first the Bible then we read a chapter book of some kind together. it's good to have the order of things not just for us um big people lol but for kids too they need it just as much as we do
I am taking heed . Thank you for your service! My grandfather had routines . He had 4 bronze stars 106th Calvary . He was a radio operator WW2 . My father Vietnam. I appreciate you sharing and teaching us .
I actually have a routine…BUT…this has helped me recognize it and its faults…so I’m writing down the routine and adding some things…not much but to insure their inclusion
Hey Brother, thank you for sharing this video, this is something I really needed to hear and I need to put a similar process into my morning routine. As a Navy vet with the “Hurry up and wait” mentality, I tend to rush through what’s needed to get done and out the door to get to work. Just doing these little things in my morning routine would probably keep my anxiety in check and not get to far ahead of myself.
Amen Chad. God gets the Glory first every day. I read my Bible with coffee, stretch, lift a few light weights. Eat, take my dog for a walk and try and rid the anxiety. I have a brain injury, have a lot of anxiety. June 13th of 09, my life changed forever. God has my life in his hands. Glad you know the Lord brother. Thanks for your encouragement each day!
Just added morning working out 6 months ago Bible study and coffee for 4 yrs since sober. Amazing life change. It's never been better. Thank you Jesus❤
I was talking with some friends yesterday about making my coffee in the morning. I thought a couple of time about getting a Mr. Coffee to get back that half hour. But I do Chemex also for much the same reason as you, and it gives me space for prayer.
Great stuff. After my brother's death I went through some intense anxiety. I was getting up at 430 but my "routine" was just to worry. I'd get a full day's worry in before I left for work. You can't sustain that for long. Thank God I got some help with anxiety and God bless anybody trying to help others get through it.
I am so sick of hearing about morning routines. Until this one. If you’re the kind of person who has a discipline to implement a morning routine, you already have one. So I’m listening to all these people tell me about this morning routine, and no one has any real insight above and beyond what I’m already doing. Until now. Starting the morning with a process, moving directly into reading from actual physical print media, centering on your Ceator; this makes so much more sense. And it is also departure from the mindless “gratitude” that everyone seems to be preaching. Absolutely love this, and you’ve given me real changes for tomorrow morning.
I wake up at 4am daily. Make my bed, brush my teeth, wash my face. After this I am usually fully awake. I follow up with a 15 min meditation session (breathing). The routine takes 30min in total. I then settle to backtest my strategies after my mind feels settled for 1 and 1/2 hours un-destructed.
In my wife and I’s Bible Study we do with young adults, we are reading through the New Testament and we do something called a “HEAR” journal. We are assigned 5 chapters a week and after reading the chapter for the day, we go through and (H)ighlight a verse, we (E)xplain said verse, we (A)pply the verse, and finally we (R)espond to the Lord. There’s a little New Testament booklet on HEAR Journaling and man it’s awesome. Really dogs you into the Word and keeps your wheels spinning and gives time for the Spirit to work in you through Scripture. Much love from North Georgia.
Man, this video really struck me to my core. I need to do this. Anxiety was never a thing to me until a couple years ago and was immediately crippling, it's taken me 2 years to get back to myself and even still somedays are just numb. Thank you for this much needed kick in the pants simple and honest video. It's time to get my ass back in gear.
Great insight on something that can be so simple and beneficial yet so easy to overcomplicate. Love how you approach it and explain it Chadd, thanks for sharing your God given wisdom!
Chadd is the definition of self control .. he defines many titles to the which I'm the proudest to say, My Brother in Christ. I'm grateful to hear your message. You are actually reaching me.. im worth everything just as each of you. Pray for Ukraine 🇺🇦 🙏
Brother, I'm no navy seal and neither am I a soldier. I'm a Christian man and a patriot. You got a subscription because you read God's Word everyday. Thank you. Love you brother. Happy 4th of July and when we are called to defend against foreign and domestic enemies. I'll stand with you.
Interesting. I was taught, “Embrace the suck!” When the stress starts going up I’m thinking, “Yeah, baby, here we go,” then take a deep breath and step into it. The reaction to stress is a normal bodily function. Use it but don’t lose it. That’s what works for me.
Love this. Learned in life that fear is my biggest enemy. My goal is to focus on staying present in the moment and doing the most important activity and continue that relentless purposeful grind throughout the day. My goal is to win the moment. CARPE MOMENTUM
I stumbled onto one of your videos a week ago and have been watching them ever since. I am a retired Law Enforcement Officer and have my own day to day issues as well. I am also a follower of Christ and he has helped me tremendously. I want you to know that you have giving me a lot to think about and I have applied some of your day to day tactics in my own life now and it has also helped me. Keep up the good work!
Been having bad anxiety since november of 23 but its become more manageable and im on the track of working out and getting healthy again, the diet and discipline is usually the hardest but once the discipline has been forged it gets easier. Turns into habits. The diet is hard mainly because of these companies putting so much crap in our food, but ive realized theres healthy substitutes and its healthier to subtract things out of the diet than to replace.
I am habitual in everything I do. Most are negative. You are totally right. If one can flip that switch and create new habits, healthy habits, it will put you on a new trajectory. I need to do better.
That's is literally what my alarm is, thinking about all the stressful and possible negatives I have to face, but I have a routine and I won't look at my phone for as long as possible, and those focus driven processes is a very helpful thing
Chad a video of yours got me thru yesterday bud. You released a video about self talk and controlling the voice in your head. Doing the Bible versus in your head while your being drown proofed and in hectic situations. I felt like I was drowning yesterday and your video saved my life.
I wake up and stretch and do breathing exercises, coupled with prayer and meditation. Gets my day off to a great start. Enjoy the inspirational messages. Keep ‘em coming!
Brother, this brought me to tears. I am struggling with how to get out of the hole I am in. I have been praying and praying for help. This is it, tomorrow is day one. God bless.
Hope day 30 is better. Never let the devil win. Move every day. Take a good Walk if you can. Keep moving. That recliner will kill ya. God bless and good luck.🍀
Hope you are doing well!! I just came across this video and saw your post. Praying for you! Jesus is my Rock. Praying you get a refreshing touch from His presence and God show you favor! Smile
I like how Chad is very upfront about his faith. I'm up at 3:30am. I make a gratitude list (10 things), list what I have to do for the day, followed by 20 mins of breath work (Wim Hoff method 4 rounds), then 3-4 minute cold shower, some quality reading or podcast (usually health and wellness related). That takes about 40 minutes. Then to the gym for 1 hr group training followed by 45 mins on my own. Left to my own devices I can wallow in depression. This routine really helps tremendously - win the morning, win the day! If I find myself lethargic in the afternoon, I take another cold shower, which is like a magic reset button.
@@brandonboyer7064 - I have problems sticking to one thing, I can be all over the place - the breathing helps me to stick with one thing - the breath. My mind still wanders for a bit, but it eventually settles. I feel calmer and steadier. It's really the shower (I'm up to 5 mins now, and the water is COLD in February in New Jersey) that gives me a feeling of happiness and deep calm. This peaceful feeling lasts for a while, then the workout just keeps it going. Throughout the day, if I feel myself rattled by something, I picture being under the shower head, turning the water on, and being completely ok with the cold. It's a concrete reminder that I can take on stress willingly, and that stress faced willingly is somehow less stressful. It's the trying to avoid stress that increases it. What are the benefits for you?
@@brandonboyer7064the breath work opens my sinuses and literally gives me a slight buzz if you will. It makes reaction in crisis second nature as well. The cold shower will make you lol. It opens and closes blood vessels which is quite literally exercise for them. Keeping your arteries and vessels flexible. And, it makes you feel good. There's a lot of research on the topics. Both are good for your hormonal balance, moving lymph fluid, and the normal processes that the body needs.
I admire you more every time I listen. Thank you for sharing such a great idea on how I can start my days. I've been needing some structure...something, as you say, doable and simple. I really appreciate it. I just noticed I hadn't subscribed yet, though I've watched several of your video's. Taking care of that now. I look forward to what you bring us next. Thanks much!
I wake at 4am every morning. 7 days a week. I never broke that habit from the time I was active duty. First thing I do upon waking, is make my coffee during my quiet time, and enjoy a chapter of Bible reading and meditation before I get after it for the rest of the day. Ironically, I was typing this out while listening to you and just knew we would be on the same page (pun intended)
Hah, I started getting dumb and lazy. I blamed chronic pain and ptsd. The VA said I needed to “do the work,” and it pissed me off. Then I started to do the work. Never quit on yourself. Be joyful always, Pray continually, Be grateful in all circumstances, for this is Gods will for you in Christ Jesus.
Key factor no p.t., focus on nothing but your morning routine. Every smell and sound preparing something to drink. And mellow out before you tackle any task in your agenda. You’re a good coach, coach!
It's kinda funny that he talks about coffee in this because in the "What's in my Bugout Bag?" episode he talks about how, along with the essentials and staying light, it's okay to bring comfort items too and coffee was his. Man really loves his coffee!🤘😎
Hey brother! I am also a former Tm Guy. I have been struggling and wrestling with God. My Will or His. Most times it seems I am doing His good works, but lately I have fallen off. Need prayers for the strength and courage to resist temptation. God bless brother in arms.
Same here with struggling with temptation. We still have our sin nature but now we are free from being a slave to it. I think one thing that has helped me is what Chadd talked about in another video, be careful what we allow to enter our mind, what we listen to, and what we watch. Psalms 1.
I appreciate your routine as similar to my own, especially with making coffee that I roasted myself; weigh and measure, prime the carafe with hot water, grind the beans, and smell the goodness from the brew. I’m not so good about sticking to reading or exercise, but watching your videos has given me food for thought. All the best.
@@terrymullinsmusic1831 Sometimes I don't know which is better - the fresh brew or the smell that lingers in the garage and on my clothes for days after roasting.
My morning routine, after waking up 1. Drink water 2. Brush teeth 3. Stretching 4. Go outside (somewhere open) and get 10 deep breaths. This takes less than 10 minutes.
You're so right about starting off your day reading a book. Great way to learn and expand your horizons. I used to read a book a week but have gotten out of the habit. Start my day with a great workout every morning
Great story, my sons name is Jacob he was stationed at K1, went through the missle strikes he lost a retired seal that was the " contractor" they said that was killed then. My son pulled gaurd duty for them guys, i guess that guy liked my son, he gave him a medallion, id have to read it to tell you what it says, but when my son talks about it I know, i can see it bothers him. He's off the VA drugs, doesnt want them or there side effects, we talk every day, probably see him 3-4 times a week. We talk, hike, hunt, ride motorcycles together, drink a little beer, I listen to whatever he wants to talk about. Thanks for all your doing
I just switched from a French press to a pour over Chemex, and man is it good. Tastes better and is a nice ritual in the AM. I'll then pour my coffee into a large Yeti thermos to keep it warm. Best way to start my day 100%.
For all that you've done down range defending what most seem to take for granted, an appreciative thank you. Surprisingly I do two of the three things you've mention every single morning and not once gave it a thought. As I reflect on the things you've said, how my days begin and my overall attitude and character now make sense. Impressive!
I want to thank you for this advice. I am going through a bunch of "Brown stuff" right now. I do sit there in the morning and drink my Coffee, but I worry about what is coming in my Day. You are a good Man. Thank you. I love your story's about Buds, you told it better than any other. You are doing good Stuff.
After listening to your video and reading the comments? I can see the unity of Gods Spirit in His children ! For I was checking off the boxes as you went along. And the comments showing the same ! God is truly preparing our hearts for the return of His Son; our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you again !
I really enjoy watching your videos Chadd! Such a positive and inspirational force. I have been struggling with anxiety and confidence lately. Gonna give this one a try!!
Same is going for me brother. Its a nasty feeling but I have seen better days so I knw we can fight and overcome it. Just gotta get out of the funk. This video was a refresher for me and I need to act on it too. Wish you the best brother. Take care.
Just makes perfect sense to me . Strong faith . Read your Bible . Set yourself up each day . Love this ethos. Just joined your channel . X forces here in the UK myself . All positive stuff . Trust in our lord and you can't go wrong . Love your channel brother . Cool 👌👍🤟🙏🙏🙏
I could not have turned to this video at a better time. I have woke up the last few days trying to pay attention to when my brain clicks into the stress anxious mode. Thank you! I saved the video and will return to it! Unreal that I'm normal!!?? Have a good day!
My phone is my alarm as well... but then i turn the music on. Music helps set my day on the right path. Wash face with cold water A bottle of water w/pinch if Himalayan salt. Calisthenics. 20 min Meditate. 5 to 10 min.

Hello, sir. Would Proverbs be the best mind-enhancing to read in the morning? Please, advise.
As he said in the video, read whatever catches your attention and makes you think, reflect, whatever works for you, scientific magazine, bible proverbs, a good mistery novel, it's up to you to find what works for you 🥰

Keep seeing your psychiatrist take the meds exercise eat healthy get a lot of sleep be around positive people don’t be too hard on yourself God is good
Look up andrew wommack and listen to his healing teachings and testimonies. Just do it.
You can be healed.
It's up to you to choose it.
Place faith in Jesus name and be amazed at his healing touch.
It usually won't be instantaneous.
It may take some time to grow, but he will lead you to the revelations you need so you can overcome.
If you will choose to trust in him.
I'll be praying for you.
Why can't you be healed? God made you my friend and God don't make mistakes ! If you work at it and trust in God you can do and you can heal anything! God bless you my friend, I pray that the Lord heals your mind.

First thing i do is take a cold water shower even in the dead of winter. My life has always been hard. My parents were both narcisists that abused me and my brother. Ive lived through so much shit. These little things that happen in life just dont faze me much anymore. I got knocked out of a derrick working in the oilfield when i was just 18. Fell 35 ft or so broke a lot of bones etc. So i live in a state of constant aches and pains. Im 53 now. So im used to it. Ive also learned i am a sigma male. Even when im dead ass tired and over worked etc. I just keep putting one foot in front of the other. Sad thing is i can still work harder then a lot of men nowadays. I try to stay in good physical condition. That helps with my mental condition. If your feeling down, dont wallow in it. Find something positive to do. ABOVE ALL BE GRATEFUL FOR THE THINGS YOU HAVE. KEEP A LINE OPEN TO GOD AND WATCH FOR HIS SIGNS. Getting older is what seperates the strong from the weak ive learned. The goal is to make to the end of life with your dignity. SO MANY people give up and commit suicide, drink themselves to death. 3/4 of the people i group up with and went to school with are already dead. Be proud of what youve accomplished. Life is hard if you make it hard. ENJOY being alive. Take a minute have a cup of coffee. Go outside walk around the yard. Listen to real life not the life we sometimes get caught up in. Go outside at night listen to the crickets look up at the stars. The world really is a beautiful place.

Amen brother. I read the Bible every single day and 3 devotionals..first thing.
I read it everyday and go into "battle" with unbelievers who like to brag how there is no God. It's not really a battle, God has ALL the evidence and they have NONE.

Most of my anxiety stems from self doubt and past failures . It pays to not overthink for sure. I absolutely agree . Simply shortening mental landscape to getting thru the next few hours seems to help me. If I think about everything, my noggin wants to explode…thank you for sharing brother…great vid
This is what I'm going through. Over thinking can put a torment on your. Brain. Instead. Trying to calm your though and be in the moment before going about your notifications. Thanks brother.
Box breathing try it even 5 minutes at the start of every morning
What I am impressed with is this guy is the real deal and after all he has been through is able to show empathy towards others and be approachable and real. He is able to communicate with us and teach us. This is really wonderful sir, I thank you so very much for the video. You have my complete respect.
Something that's helped me: find something that makes me laugh in the morning. The joy of the Lord is my strength!
When I was going through my divorce, I had debilitating anxiety. The only thing that killed it was a 3-4 mile run. I would wake up at 3am and just go for a run. What I didn't have control over was my thoughts. Stinkin thinkin. Gotta get the thoughts under control.👍
I pray every single morning with my 4 year old. Always have and now he does it. I won’t touch my phone before it either. I center in gratitude and a joyful moment or pillow talk with him. I’m so thankful to work from home.
Here in the present moment With my faith in God I am safe I am stable and I am secured 🙌🏼 Thank you Chad🙏🏼
Your are with God. Thise other mentions are not in your control. Does God want us safe and content?
@@jonathanbowen9003 Is there even a god?
I’m stealing this. God bless you.
@@jonathanbowen9003 shut up, as if you know anything
@@jonathanbowen9003 they absolutely are in our control. God absolutely wants us safe and content. But that doesn’t mean we should become stagnant.
My anxiety is getting worse as I get older. My mother passed away when I was 15 years old. I struggled with depression and anxiety and have so many issues with questioning my own mortality as I am a father of 3. As former pro athlete I wake up 5 am to workout for 30 minutes! keeps my mind in the present.
Box breathing, attend a local church
I really agree with his morning routine with someone like me that has bad anxiety I want to try this
Glad to hear your reading scripture!!!!! Amen brother, amen!!!!
The best morning routine to wake up is to pray to God that he gave you another day to live!👍🏼
Mashallah❤
Coffee is the key start of the day for me. I do my Bible App first thing, then instead of consuming content, I post a #Coffeeup post every morning with motivational posts to get my mind right. It started years ago and has a nice following now. Helps adjust my mentality for the day
Wow! You struck a nerve. The right one. I needed this. I'm 55 and the first thing I do is get up and have coffee and look at UA-cam videos. It's a vicious cycle. Your recommendations are fantastic and I really think it's going to help me break my cycle. Thanks for the advice and I love the reading THE book part.
Thank You Thank You Thank You Chadd!!! 🙌🙏💖 Your advice, your wisdom and simplicity are making a difference in my life!!! 🙌 I 💖 it, I 💖 it, I 💖 it!!! 🙌💪💪🎉🎉 I couldn't be more grateful to God for directing my steps to your channel, and to you for free and freely sharing your amazing wisdom with the rest of us!! 🤗💖 Thank you for your Service Sir 🫡🇺🇸 💖
You explain things in such a simple and remarkable way, that you remind me of two things: Psalm 131:1, and Albert Einstein's quote: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough."
Thanks again and God bless you and yours 🙌🙏💖
Amen. The scripture is the glue. Readies our mind to the leading of the Spirit of Christ. I'm looking forward to this series. I'm grateful you popped up in my que. So far our mornings are very similar. Grace and Peace to you my brother
Great advice Sir! I workout in the morning to help reduce stress! I like about what you said about our minds jumping forward to what stresses us out. I also like what you said about staying off your phone first thing in the morning.
Chad I just listened to your podcast from a year ago with Andy Stumpf. Awesome job boldy and unashamedly proclaming the gospel! Wow - just awesome! Keep kicking butt for Christ! 💪✝️
A buddy of mine sent me this link because it's almost word for word my exact process to begin every day where I end up feeling even moderately successful. Great to hear someone sharing methods that anyone can replicate and that actually WORK.
This may sound weird but establishing a fish tank helped me with anxiety faster than anything. They are extremely peaceful to watch especially with coffee in the morning dropping some fish flakes.
Thank you for your insights brother.
Discipline… plan your morning success by setting the standard before you hit the rack the night before.
Before my feet hit the ground I’m thanking the Lord and praising his goodness. This helps me to have a thankful mindset rather than a complaining mindset. I’m tire but I get to spend time with the Lord, what a privilege. Coffee, prayer, and read and process scripture. This gets me ready for the challenges of the day.
Matthew 6:33 ESV
But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Just my routine… 🤠
Don’t see 6:30PM I’m up 5 days a week at 2:30AM i workout 7 days a week,but your right on the phone I need to take my half hr of coffee and mental reflection and put it into reading,god has blessed me with a mind I’m finding out after sobriety this past 3yrs I’m up to 30mls on my big runs now and everyday is a blessed day….Thank you Sir for the excellent content.
It was in the spring on a sunny day I saw a good boy turn and go the wrong way. He was too busy looking hard as stone to ever realize he was all alone. Don’t be that guy!! Keep it simple!! Embrace life. Live your life with the end in mind. Awesome video!!
Staying in the presence rather than stressing about what you have to do is a valuable lesson for a stress case like me.
Morning is the best time of day. The truth you live speaks clearly. God first is the best way. Thank you.
Your channel is awesome! Surprisingly I am a 72 yr old woman, viewing Spec Op videos, for my own PTSD from an auto accident. The doc explained to me how the accident was similar to being hit by artillery or rolling over an IED and then waking up to the aftermath. I lost my husband of 26 years that night. Rough shit. And it's been one day at a time since then. Your videos really break down processes that matter. Imma Texas girl so, when I say, I appreciate you, you know I mean it. Thank you, young man!
Love journaling and reading upon rising, so true. Reading is fundamental to true knowledge. You cannot make this up. Books are everything! Great work chadd
I'm a momma of 7, i try to stick to a familiar routine for the kids. we start our day with chores then have breakfast and read together at the table first the Bible then we read a chapter book of some kind together. it's good to have the order of things not just for us um big people lol but for kids too they need it just as much as we do
I am taking heed . Thank you for your service! My grandfather had routines . He had 4 bronze stars 106th Calvary . He was a radio operator WW2 . My father Vietnam. I appreciate you sharing and teaching us .
I start my day very similarly. Love this. It has changed my life.
I actually have a routine…BUT…this has helped me recognize it and its faults…so I’m writing down the routine and adding some things…not much but to insure their inclusion
Hey Brother, thank you for sharing this video, this is something I really needed to hear and I need to put a similar process into my morning routine. As a Navy vet with the “Hurry up and wait” mentality, I tend to rush through what’s needed to get done and out the door to get to work. Just doing these little things in my morning routine would probably keep my anxiety in check and not get to far ahead of myself.
Amen Chad. God gets the Glory first every day. I read my Bible with coffee, stretch, lift a few light weights. Eat, take my dog for a walk and try and rid the anxiety. I have a brain injury, have a lot of anxiety. June 13th of 09, my life changed forever. God has my life in his hands. Glad you know the Lord brother. Thanks for your encouragement each day!
Coffee, bible study, and working out, 3 of my favorite things... Count me in , bro.
Just added morning working out 6 months ago
Bible study and coffee for 4 yrs since sober.
Amazing life change.
It's never been better.
Thank you Jesus❤
I hate working out first thing in the morning...so that's why I work out first thing on the morning every morning
I was talking with some friends yesterday about making my coffee in the morning. I thought a couple of time about getting a Mr. Coffee to get back that half hour. But I do Chemex also for much the same reason as you, and it gives me space for prayer.
Great stuff. After my brother's death I went through some intense anxiety. I was getting up at 430 but my "routine" was just to worry. I'd get a full day's worry in before I left for work. You can't sustain that for long. Thank God I got some help with anxiety and God bless anybody trying to help others get through it.
I am so sick of hearing about morning routines. Until this one.
If you’re the kind of person who has a discipline to implement a morning routine, you already have one. So I’m listening to all these people tell me about this morning routine, and no one has any real insight above and beyond what I’m already doing. Until now.
Starting the morning with a process, moving directly into reading from actual physical print media, centering on your Ceator; this makes so much more sense. And it is also departure from the mindless “gratitude” that everyone seems to be preaching.
Absolutely love this, and you’ve given me real changes for tomorrow morning.
I wake up at 4am daily. Make my bed, brush my teeth, wash my face. After this I am usually fully awake. I follow up with a 15 min meditation session (breathing). The routine takes 30min in total. I then settle to backtest my strategies after my mind feels settled for 1 and 1/2 hours un-destructed.
In my wife and I’s Bible Study we do with young adults, we are reading through the New Testament and we do something called a “HEAR” journal. We are assigned 5 chapters a week and after reading the chapter for the day, we go through and (H)ighlight a verse, we (E)xplain said verse, we (A)pply the verse, and finally we (R)espond to the Lord. There’s a little New Testament booklet on HEAR Journaling and man it’s awesome. Really dogs you into the Word and keeps your wheels spinning and gives time for the Spirit to work in you through Scripture. Much love from North Georgia.
Man, this video really struck me to my core. I need to do this. Anxiety was never a thing to me until a couple years ago and was immediately crippling, it's taken me 2 years to get back to myself and even still somedays are just numb. Thank you for this much needed kick in the pants simple and honest video. It's time to get my ass back in gear.
A warrior man of God. Love it. Bless you brother.
Great insight on something that can be so simple and beneficial yet so easy to overcomplicate. Love how you approach it and explain it Chadd, thanks for sharing your God given wisdom!
Reading the Scriptures always builds me up. I'm so glad you read it daily.
Chadd is the definition of self control .. he defines many titles to the which I'm the proudest to say, My Brother in Christ. I'm grateful to hear your message. You are actually reaching me.. im worth everything just as each of you.
Pray for Ukraine 🇺🇦 🙏
Chad. Love your content and your story. I stay tuned for the stories of the past.
Brother, I'm no navy seal and neither am I a soldier. I'm a Christian man and a patriot.
You got a subscription because you read God's Word everyday.
Thank you. Love you brother.
Happy 4th of July and when we are called to defend against foreign and domestic enemies. I'll stand with you.
Frogman, I am now a subscriber for life. Open the Word of God!! Absolutely will start you day! Thank you!
Interesting. I was taught, “Embrace the suck!” When the stress starts going up I’m thinking, “Yeah, baby, here we go,” then take a deep breath and step into it. The reaction to stress is a normal bodily function. Use it but don’t lose it. That’s what works for me.
Great attitude! I agree. When you're going through hell.... KEEP GOING!
Love this. Learned in life that fear is my biggest enemy. My goal is to focus on staying present in the moment and doing the most important activity and continue that relentless purposeful grind throughout the day. My goal is to win the moment. CARPE MOMENTUM
I stumbled onto one of your videos a week ago and have been watching them ever since. I am a retired Law Enforcement Officer and have my own day to day issues as well. I am also a follower of Christ and he has helped me tremendously. I want you to know that you have giving me a lot to think about and I have applied some of your day to day tactics in my own life now and it has also helped me. Keep up the good work!
Been having bad anxiety since november of 23 but its become more manageable and im on the track of working out and getting healthy again, the diet and discipline is usually the hardest but once the discipline has been forged it gets easier. Turns into habits. The diet is hard mainly because of these companies putting so much crap in our food, but ive realized theres healthy substitutes and its healthier to subtract things out of the diet than to replace.
I am habitual in everything I do. Most are negative. You are totally right. If one can flip that switch and create new habits, healthy habits, it will put you on a new trajectory. I need to do better.
Commitment. Commit to doing better. Make up your mind and commit. It's settled - no more having to think about it. (This is what I'm doing)
That's is literally what my alarm is, thinking about all the stressful and possible negatives I have to face, but I have a routine and I won't look at my phone for as long as possible, and those focus driven processes is a very helpful thing
Scripture in the morning is awesome. I need to apply this to my morning. Thank you brother.
@Chrome Book does that make you feel better?
@Chrome Book I think you’re confused by your own statement. Take an aspirin next time before you start thinking and it will be less painful.
@Chrome Book The fool says in his heart, "there is no God."
Its almost as if the Bible predicted this very conversation.
Chad a video of yours got me thru yesterday bud. You released a video about self talk and controlling the voice in your head. Doing the Bible versus in your head while your being drown proofed and in hectic situations. I felt like I was drowning yesterday and your video saved my life.
I wake up and stretch and do breathing exercises, coupled with prayer and meditation. Gets my day off to a great start. Enjoy the inspirational messages. Keep ‘em coming!
Yes! God bless
Truth will be the only thing. I worship
Brother, this brought me to tears. I am struggling with how to get out of the hole I am in. I have been praying and praying for help. This is it, tomorrow is day one. God bless.
Hope day 30 is better. Never let the devil win. Move every day. Take a good Walk if you can. Keep moving. That recliner will kill ya. God bless and good luck.🍀
Good deal. Hang in there man!
Hang in there man!! God Bless
Hope you are doing well!! I just came across this video and saw your post. Praying for you! Jesus is my Rock. Praying you get a refreshing touch from His presence and God show you favor! Smile
The moment You said scripture, I subscribed. Thank You sir 🙏🏿
I like how Chad is very upfront about his faith. I'm up at 3:30am. I make a gratitude list (10 things), list what I have to do for the day, followed by 20 mins of breath work (Wim Hoff method 4 rounds), then 3-4 minute cold shower, some quality reading or podcast (usually health and wellness related). That takes about 40 minutes. Then to the gym for 1 hr group training followed by 45 mins on my own. Left to my own devices I can wallow in depression. This routine really helps tremendously - win the morning, win the day! If I find myself lethargic in the afternoon, I take another cold shower, which is like a magic reset button.
I’ve been doing the win hof technique for a while too. How do you feel it benefits you?
@@brandonboyer7064 - I have problems sticking to one thing, I can be all over the place - the breathing helps me to stick with one thing - the breath. My mind still wanders for a bit, but it eventually settles. I feel calmer and steadier. It's really the shower (I'm up to 5 mins now, and the water is COLD in February in New Jersey) that gives me a feeling of happiness and deep calm. This peaceful feeling lasts for a while, then the workout just keeps it going. Throughout the day, if I feel myself rattled by something, I picture being under the shower head, turning the water on, and being completely ok with the cold. It's a concrete reminder that I can take on stress willingly, and that stress faced willingly is somehow less stressful. It's the trying to avoid stress that increases it. What are the benefits for you?
@@brandonboyer7064the breath work opens my sinuses and literally gives me a slight buzz if you will. It makes reaction in crisis second nature as well. The cold shower will make you lol. It opens and closes blood vessels which is quite literally exercise for them. Keeping your arteries and vessels flexible. And, it makes you feel good. There's a lot of research on the topics. Both are good for your hormonal balance, moving lymph fluid, and the normal processes that the body needs.
How many inpatient programs did it take for you to figure this out?
I admire you more every time I listen. Thank you for sharing such a great idea on how I can start my days. I've been needing some structure...something, as you say, doable and simple. I really appreciate it. I just noticed I hadn't subscribed yet, though I've watched several of your video's. Taking care of that now. I look forward to what you bring us next. Thanks much!
I wake at 4am every morning. 7 days a week. I never broke that habit from the time I was active duty. First thing I do upon waking, is make my coffee during my quiet time, and enjoy a chapter of Bible reading and meditation before I get after it for the rest of the day.
Ironically, I was typing this out while listening to you and just knew we would be on the same page (pun intended)
GOD FIRST , BIBLE , PRAYER ....!!!!!! A-MEN ...!!!!!!!!!!!

Love you man... wake up, make some coffee, read the bible, do some exercise and get ready for the challenge... God Bless you all
This old boy is as real as a day is long!! Most of these X military influencers on UA-cam full of themselves not this guy.
Na he is too to even do what he is doing, but he seems way more down to earth. I was impressed by what he said about his mentor who committed suicide.
Hah, I started getting dumb and lazy. I blamed chronic pain and ptsd. The VA said I needed to “do the work,” and it pissed me off. Then I started to do the work.
Never quit on yourself.
Be joyful always,
Pray continually,
Be grateful in all circumstances, for this is Gods will for you in Christ Jesus.
Key factor no p.t., focus on nothing but your morning routine. Every smell and sound preparing something to drink. And mellow out before you tackle any task in your agenda. You’re a good coach, coach!
It's kinda funny that he talks about coffee in this because in the "What's in my Bugout Bag?" episode he talks about how, along with the essentials and staying light, it's okay to bring comfort items too and coffee was his. Man really loves his coffee!🤘😎
Hey brother! I am also a former Tm Guy. I have been struggling and wrestling with God. My Will or His. Most times it seems I am doing His good works, but lately I have fallen off. Need prayers for the strength and courage to resist temptation. God bless brother in arms.
Accept islam bro❤
Same here with struggling with temptation. We still have our sin nature but now we are free from being a slave to it. I think one thing that has helped me is what Chadd talked about in another video, be careful what we allow to enter our mind, what we listen to, and what we watch. Psalms 1.
Thanks man. I shared this with my son, my young marine. It works
I appreciate your routine as similar to my own, especially with making coffee that I roasted myself; weigh and measure, prime the carafe with hot water, grind the beans, and smell the goodness from the brew. I’m not so good about sticking to reading or exercise, but watching your videos has given me food for thought. All the best.
Isn't your own home roasted coffee just the best!? 👍
@@terrymullinsmusic1831 Sometimes I don't know which is better - the fresh brew or the smell that lingers in the garage and on my clothes for days after roasting.
My morning routine, after waking up
1. Drink water
2. Brush teeth
3. Stretching
4. Go outside (somewhere open) and get 10 deep breaths.
This takes less than 10 minutes.
Chadd, that's exactly why I make my coffee the way I do. Enjoy the process and slow down to focus. I love these videos and your levity.
Prayer and Scripture!! Amen
Hey brother. EXCELLENT. This was extremely helpful.
Amen brother, took until my forties to go back to the good things
Nailed it…again. Thank you for your authenticity brother. 🙏🏼☝🏼🙌🏼👊🏼
You're so right about starting off your day reading a book. Great way to learn and expand your horizons. I used to read a book a week but have gotten out of the habit. Start my day with a great workout every morning
Great story, my sons name is Jacob he was stationed at K1, went through the missle strikes he lost a retired seal that was the " contractor" they said that was killed then. My son pulled gaurd duty for them guys, i guess that guy liked my son, he gave him a medallion, id have to read it to tell you what it says, but when my son talks about it I know, i can see it bothers him. He's off the VA drugs, doesnt want them or there side effects, we talk every day, probably see him 3-4 times a week. We talk, hike, hunt, ride motorcycles together, drink a little beer, I listen to whatever he wants to talk about. Thanks for all your doing
I just switched from a French press to a pour over Chemex, and man is it good. Tastes better and is a nice ritual in the AM. I'll then pour my coffee into a large Yeti thermos to keep it warm. Best way to start my day 100%.
For all that you've done down range defending what most seem to take for granted, an appreciative thank you. Surprisingly I do two of the three things you've mention every single morning and not once gave it a thought. As I reflect on the things you've said, how my days begin and my overall attitude and character now make sense. Impressive!
Thank you Chadd! Sent this to a friend to help keep him on track.
Just started watching your videos, thank you for service and most of all your Christian example. God Bless.
Thank you so much, Chadd. I enjoy your videos very much. From one Veteran to another, thank you for your service.
I want to thank you for this advice. I am going through a bunch of "Brown stuff" right now. I do sit there in the morning and drink my Coffee, but I worry about what is coming in my Day. You are a good Man. Thank you. I love your story's about Buds, you told it better than any other. You are doing good Stuff.
Thanks for the great videos especially the ones on dealing with stress.
Love ❤️ this. Very close to my morning routine ! Thank you. God bless ✝️⚔️⚔️⚔️
After listening to your video and reading the comments?
I can see the unity of Gods Spirit in His children !
For I was checking off the boxes as you went along. And the comments showing the same ! God is truly preparing our hearts for the return of His Son; our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Thank you again !
I really enjoy watching your videos Chadd! Such a positive and inspirational force. I have been struggling with anxiety and confidence lately. Gonna give this one a try!!
You have come to the right place Brad!
Same is going for me brother. Its a nasty feeling but I have seen better days so I knw we can fight and overcome it. Just gotta get out of the funk. This video was a refresher for me and I need to act on it too. Wish you the best brother. Take care.
Yes sir, it is indeed very simple.
Thank you very much!
Valuable tips sir, thank you.
Excited to to commit to it. God bless you 🙌
Just makes perfect sense to me . Strong faith . Read your Bible . Set yourself up each day . Love this ethos. Just joined your channel . X forces here in the UK myself . All positive stuff . Trust in our lord and you can't go wrong . Love your channel brother . Cool 👌👍🤟🙏🙏🙏
I could not have turned to this video at a better time. I have woke up the last few days trying to pay attention to when my brain clicks into the stress anxious mode. Thank you! I saved the video and will return to it! Unreal that I'm normal!!?? Have a good day!
My phone is my alarm as well... but then i turn the music on. Music helps set my day on the right path.
