I hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope you find these insights form Miyamoto Musashi very helpful for your focus.
A samurai at first, and then a Ronin, Miyamoto Musashi is considered to be the greatest swordsman ever in the history of Japan, in large part due to his almost surreal discipline. Indeed It is being said that he fought 60 duels, and never lost one. He fought for the first time when he was 13 against an experienced Samurai, and came out victorious. He took down the greatest swordsman at that time, one by one, until the throne was his, and his alone. However, Miyamoto was more than that. Not only was he a master of his craft, but he was also an artist, a cerebral philosopher and a buddhist. He sought meaning, wrote war and philosophy books, and his work became a blueprint for people who want to live a disciplined life. A week before he died in 1645, Miyamoto Musashi wrote 21 principles called “Dokkodo '' by which he expresses a stringent, honest, and ascetic or strongly self-disciplined view of life.

Miyamoto Musashi says “Avoid doing things for the mere sake of pleasure".
We hope that you enjoyed this video and for more videos to help you find success and happiness using ancient philosophical wisdom, don’t forget to subscribe. Thanks so much for watching.
Yes I did 😊
I watched this video for the mere sake of pleasure. I'm sorry.
@@darekmaver The seed was planted. You came here for a reason that your not conscious of yet.
Thank you so very much! ❤
This is good so far. But do you understand that Musashi is "the greatest samurai". If you understand what a samurai is, you'll realize he was only one thing. All these are samurai practices, or the art form of living. The samurai poured tea with discipline.
As a True Christian, I love his pursuit of Truth and honesty, the value towards human life, and the refinement of discipline this unique man possessed. These are all necessary for healthy Christian life, and our Lord Jesus Christ stressed the importance of these attributes.
Musashi was Proto-christian, and that is in the Bible.
"He who loves the truth loves me" - Jesus Christ
“If all we know is comfort, we might be traumatized when we are forced to experience pain or discomfort, as we someday almost surely will.”
How is the google profiting from one-liner sock puppets making comments? Plus more offensive ads!
Maybe depoliticizing America's legal system would help?
So: "A nonpartisan Justice may compel two recusals by junior partisan Justices."
How about that idea?
@Miguel Silva one will never be truly prepared for the unexpected, but becoming more aware as to keep gaining friction will keep us numb, less fazed for future disasters. Truly accepting it is what it is and to let go off everything that is no longer beneficial in one's life. Is a hard lesson of reality we often ignore yet fall back into at deepest times. Have fun because were humans but be aware of its consequences and psychological challenges . this applies to thoughts, beliefs, and to everything we give attention as well. What you think of is essentially who you are, let your inner peace guide as you flow through the midst of the chaotic world. Or let your unrelenting wrath walk over the peaceful world to complete the quest. Goodluck
@@Citykid1982 you are just saying blah blah blah things but brother 🥲😅 😁
Noonever saidus once said:
"Don't be lazy, or you won't get beaches!"
You just described millenials who suffered psychological abuse from helicopter parenting and participant awards as learning to rely on yourself is part of growing up to become mature adults. At no fault of their own those kids were done a disservice in developing life skills.
"Good times create weak men"
1. Find you one true passion
2. Avoid short-term pleasure
3. Never do anything with half-hearted effort
4. Let go of resentments
5. Do not regret anything
6. Do not chase love or lust
7. Accept life as it happens
I like how you reduce it to such generic points 😂😂😂
If its musashi related i gotta hear it aaaaallll 👋😕
How does one find passion
*”Do not fear having no friends. Fear having bad friends”* ~My life taught lesson
My friends dislike anime. Therefore, I consider them bad friends
@@peteypete9357 they might be good friends if they don’t get tempted by temporary satisfaction such as anime, I used to watch so much anime throughout highschool and it took me until my senior year to realize anime/TVshows are a waste of time, energy, emotion and life, maybe I wouldn’t be the person i am today if I hadn’t watched so much anime, so i am greatful for the life lesson god had thought me. On the downside though, anime has probably developed my habit of getting distracted easily, but i will learn as I grow. Anyways bruv, your comment might have been a joke, but it’s quite serious in my perspective so I wanted to comment on it. Good luck mate🤟🏽, I hope you digest this videos lessons, I recommend listening to Jim Rohn’s seminars, they have changed my life and motivated me.🦾
Edgy much? We dont need you
I've never heard of Miyamoto Musashi before, but his wisdom is amazing. Thank you for this video!
such a nice and positive principle by miyamoto musashi. i guaranteed he lived his life to the fullest.
Much needed- Thank you, Mr. Philosophies for Life.
Really needed to listen to #4. Thank you for sharing this video.
What an amazing video! It hits home very hard, because I’m always shifting between hobbies. I lack focus and this makes me miserable sometimes. But I’m changing that now.
Great video. It really clicked with me. Thank you.
My favorite thing about Musashi isn't in his books but in his mythos. The part of story about the shrine before his first duel to be exact. While still being revrent to the Gods he refrained from praying for favors. Instead he thanked them for all that he had been given at birth. That's the inner strength of a Sage.
edited to correct: for praying to from praying.
Wow that was a teaching and motivational video for success and focus. Thank you. it such a nice and performance in motivational speech for success and focus. Thank you very much MR PHILOSOPHIES FOR LIFE . And I know it. 7 ways to be focus and success in Miyamoto Musashi's life and teaching us how to believe in ourself and how to believe in focus . 1.Find you one true passion . 2. Avoid short-term pleasure. 3. Never do anything with half-hearted effort. 4. Let go of resentments and e.t.c. Thank you very much for teaching us and Miyamoto Musashi said." Avoid doing things for the mere sake of pleasure". Thank you very much MR PHILOSOPHIES FOR LIFE. Thank you
Miyamoto Musashi is my favourite philosopher.
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Great presentation! Mindset , Discipline! Many Thanks! 🎈🎈🎈🎈
WoW, such a true video, lots of teaching and knowledge, great, loved it, all lives encountered all mention in this video, gives a different perspective of life
Just a heads up, something i learned from a therapist. Cutting out all the short term gratifications doesn't necessarily mean you'll be able to focus on your one true purpose/passion. I thought my shit was all muddied up because of them. Turns out, i was trying to use process of elimination. I had never figured out my passion to begin with, so constantly narrowing down was an effort in futility. There was nothing to narrow down to. I just kept cutting more and more things out of my life until i had basically nothing. This is to say, try to find what you're working towards FIRST.
Idk i may have butchered what he was trying to teach me, but maybe this will help someone.
OMG! Fantastic ! Thank you .
Are minds are always in lots of places in life but try and find that peace with discomfort and enjoy the good and the bad in life what a great video philosophy is amazing
Never underestimate passion
If you enjoy subjects about mastery and masculinity, I invite you to explore the videos on the Mastery Order Channel.
Challenge yourself with some ideas about manhood, explore your masculine potential to the maximum and become the kind of man you would respect and look up to.
We can only better ourselves together, as men among men, so I invite you to use what I share and, of course, share your own thoughts so that others can also benefit from them.
All the best to you!
Distraction is the enemy so work on focus to succeed
In other words keep priority first
For the the simple truth is that life and particularly the Moment is the only thing we need to be passionate about 🙏💚🙏
Thank you so much for this wonderful video! I love the philosophies from Miyamoto Musashi! This is a beautiful summary! It just helped me alot! many many thanks and bless you!💛🙏✨
I particularly appreciate this video!
This was awesome! Thank you ❤
Thank you very much, Philosophies for Life. Just would like to ask how true that everything happens for a reason.
Most interesting.
Love can be a goal
Thank you very much 😊 👍
Great Job!
“It is much safer to be feared than loved”
-Machiavelli
Avatar:The Last Airbender princess Azula had that same philosophy.
What? The chances of getting betrayed are much higher when you rule by fear. Besides, other people are human like you too, they like you make mistakes and want to be loved, if you love yourself, why wouldn't you love all of them? You will die, they will die, so you are meant to be in this together. You yourself wouldn't want to live in fear would you?
incomplete quote, you didn't read the whole book.
"-but at all costs, avoid being hated"

Philosophies of life,
Thank you for sharing this video essay. I am familiar with the Book of 5 Rings, and I couldn't locate the quotation you opened with this video. Can you please clarify it?
Cheers, ab
The irony of me watching this video is that’s it’s distracting me from where my focus should be.

This isn't a new video. Was something changed in it?

Embrace your Present.
Orchestrate our Futures." --Artemis

"Before I start, I must see my end.
Destination known, my mind’s journey now begins.
Upon my chariot, heart and soul’s fate revealed.
In time, all points converge, hope’s strength re-steeled.
But to earn final peace at the universe’s endless refrain,
We must see all in nothingness... before we start again."

I have no enemies.
A person who has no enemies could not possibly have stood up for anything in life....a floor mat has no enemies,because it allows everyone to walk over it....
@@gerhardusvanderpoll You can stand up for anything while still being respectful, that's called being impartial.
Learning to live without regret doesn't take persistence, it takes forethought. Can't have any regrets if you are conscious of your decision you are making. People think before they touch a hot stove. The ones that don't though have no regret either. It's a double sided coin.
Incredible self-control on his part. The average person is lazy, selfish, impulsive--80% emotion, 20% reason. The limbic, primitive, irrational, instinctive, subconscious self is tough to rein in. Too much and you end up repressed, too little and you are wildly out of control.
How do you stay focused on one thing when u have like 8 courses in school/college?

Can someone please share the sources where miyamoto musashi was married/had relationship?
5:40 💪🏼😈
I wonder how utube might of changed his perspective on life
it's all good and nice untill coincidences put you in a corner.
I guess preparing yourself to succeed is necessary to prevent others from preparing you for failure. And a little bit of luck.
@@nak3dxsnake I see it this way. some get the luck before others do. some live lives thinking they are normal and keep being unlucky when they discover they grew up between gaslighting narcissists and they have adhd.
the point is hell comes to those who don't deserve it often. but persistence for self care and personal life improvement should never stop. I wanna believe that everyone gets a chance at success... even if it's years after most others

"Distractions of modern world".
Should a man look forward to gain satisfaction in life OR achieve greatness?
Can we ditch one for the sake of the other?
A jack of all trades and master of none is often times better than a master of one.
The only problem being a jack of all trades rarely exists. More like a jack of a few trades master of none.
@NAK3DxSNAKE I don't see a problem with being colloquially referred to as a jack of all trades. The earliest recorded versions of the phrase do not contain the second part. Indeed they are broadly positive in tone. Such a Jack of all trades may be a master of integration, as such an individual knows enough from many learned trades and skills to be able to bring his or her disciplines together in a practical manner.
"Find your passion" is woo-woo nonsense and certainly not what Musashi meant by the quote that was put up to justify it.
do you know a channel named MonsGuide says you built your channel entirely using AI?
Sounds like me outshine the master cuz eyema master playing student

Stop watching after number one. Learn the ways of all professions was what Musashi actually said in the book of five rings.
3 ways would be easier to pay attention to.
Not everyone will get that gift my friend
From some of us, philosophy can be the distraction itself. Lol. 🤦🤷🙃

Too much you and not enough of the topic. Your personal opinions are not what draws attention of viewers. Stay focused.

Don't follow love and family, but money/career.. most stupid advice. Only focusing on love and not having a career is also bad. So there should be balance
This was distracting with your cartooish cartoon
Please proofread your work. Maintain is not Maintian.
..That threw you off, or were you looking to give yourself a gold star? Haha My bad! ..Couldn't help myself. Why so serious? How bout we practice & maintain some tolerance ✌️
This looks suspiciously like an entirely AI generated youtube account. Disreputable AF if so.
