I was 17 in 1983 and about to age out of foster care system with nowhere to go. I wrote a note "Make Things Happen". Nine months later, I was living in freshman housing at Williams College - the top ranked liberal arts college in the world.
As I'm getting older the greatest element in my life is PEACE. And women can seldom bring this to a man's life. Having peace is better than any drug, alcohol, woman, sex I've ever had before.
Women take peace away drama , never happy, and that's why I'm single at 40 and no money. I'm getting a better job. Women take my peace, especially at home, no thank you .
A professor in college walked by me in the library back in undergrad. Noticed I was looking at a law school guidebook breaking out the LSAT score ranges and GPA ranges at the various schools to which I sought admission. He stopped, smiled, and said: 'The only statistic that matters is the one in the mirror.' That was in 1994... and still ...words to live by.
John you just simplified the key to success, if you cannot imagine yourself at the top, you cant be at the top. Train the mind to see and work towards the goals. Also the process/ journey is tough but the lessons are endless and will make you appreciate everything you did to get to the top or be successful in life.
Another Gem John. I had been stuck in a painful place for 6 months due to a break up. Lately I took the action of writing down or reading 5 positive attitudes/beliefs each morning that if applied would improve my outlook/life. I also reflect upon these each evening before bed. The change in my outlook has been immense. I also meditate each day. Taking back power over your internal and external worlds is a wonderful thing.
I started traveling internationally and creating my life at age 18. I'm an only child and had amazing parents, grandparents and aunts who were supportive. Stay healthy........... At the gym 😂🎉😂 this morning 🌄🌄 drinking free fresh spring water 💦
"attitude of optimism" - fun fact, apparently in the ancient if you wanted to become roman legionaire, it was prefered you had good sense of humor and had optimistic attitude. They knew even then that it really only take one serious pessimist spreading negativity to ruin the mood for everyone and affect the units moral.
Great Video ! ... I'd say you are 100% right and I like The Secret video, but you are right about it. Action is the most important step. Without it, there is no manifestation. Ya can't just think things into existence. Please keep these videos coming ! and keep your videos shot in the forest, with the dogs, my soul love that place, it's just so damn peaceful. That's what all of us guys really want; Peace. 🕊
Singleness keeps me creative. Also, I agree that our legacy is created by the difference we make and not the offspring we create. No one is going to remember JG through his 3 offspring. JG will be remembered by all the body transformations and YT lectures that he creates. I would rather make a difference than make a baby.
What’s tough is working in corporate America or any large institution, there’s no connection to your dreams and affirmations and results from your focus and work
Hey just a heads up on your artistry making videos and maintaining balance. Remember to keep your schedule and take care of your self. Appreciate your videos
Don't know that being optimistic is a learned thing or is more just a general out look a person has as part of their general being anyway avoid the negatives, other people that are this way or beating yourself up. The plan is very important without a plan you can not make headway in the direction you would like to go. Setbacks are just that, a time delay and should not make you loose sight of the 'dream.' The dream also needs to anchored in reality. Questioning yourself will dispel delusions of grandeur, or spur you to acquire skills you will need. This was a great post one some folks might like to earmark for revisiting.
For most to find out what they want and to imagine how it will be and feel is the most difficult part, I think. The action part may sometimes be hard to start, but as soon as you are in it you won't stop anymore.
A couple of resources that echo what you're saying are also a couple of old ones. The book Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill and the audio series The Psychology Of Achievement by Brian Tracy say many of the same things.
I was 65 when she left 2015, just had a tumor removed from my spine, I don't know whether it contributed to the Meneire's or was a coincidence! Since she left PROSTATE CANCER, 2019! My stamina since radiation is 1/2 of what it was! I used to love fishing in my boat, now all of my friends are dead and I can't handle the launching like before! Used to be a salesman Maine to Maryland! Drs.tell me don't travel by yourself any more! HOW DO I CREATE A DREAM LIFE NOW! She was my partner, supposed to be there for this, and now. Your pep talks are great for young men, but when treachery happens at 65! You are screwed!
Don't give up! I'm in my 70th year, look late 50's, fit but not totally healthy. Widow maker heart attacks at 61, aneurysm found with accompanying scans. Told to go home and enjoy the rest of my life. Wife of 40 years left after 8 months, it was tough for 2-3 years but now I live according to what and how I want. I've never been happier! Got a great little camper an faithful dog. Life is good! Don't give up!
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all up hill, When the funds are low, And the debts are high, And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must, but you must not quit. Life is strange with its twist and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns And many of failure turns about When he might had won had he stuck it out, Dont give up when the pace seems slow You may succeed with another blow, Success is failure turned inside out, The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you can never tell how close you are, It may be near, when it seems so far, So, stick to the fight, when you're hardest hit, It's when things seem worse that you must not quit, AUTHOR UNKNOWN.
Sounds ambiguous, but it’s not, it’s black and white. Think to negatively and you will go down a spiral and into the drain. Think positively and the opposite happens. These are concepts of salesmanship and manifestation. John has surely enacted this for himself over time. From the low of separation to the heights he experiences now. Experiences he could never have achieved with an ex partner to carry whilst likely undermining and criticizing him. To keep him in his place and watch him spiral because that elevates her in relative terms. Stay single because women make out they love you as part of their own positive thinking and manifestation, holding you down. When eventually they come to hate you and become confident that they are better than you. Don’t rely on there compliment for your self-esteem. It makes them feel like they’re in control of you like you’re a child. If you do this, then there’s a price to pay. Believe in yourself, regardless.
I'm 69 and still single.I learned earlier in life that marriage is a pain in the ass. I'd rather be single without all the BS that marriage entails. I can go where I want when i want. I can do what I want when I want. I can sleep all day or stay up all night without someone nagging at me to do this, do that, do the other thing. I don't have to put up with that nonsense because I'm single.
And stay away from negative people, especially negative women who are down on their luck forever stuck in a rut.
Yup!!!
That rule has a name: "No stray cats."
Those women will play on your sympathy and rope you into their drama
All women are negative eventually
Goddamn I wish I knew this

Don't worry about what you can't control. Enjoy what you can.
I retired at 57 years old and single. Life is great.
You’re where I want to be so bad …don’t take it for granted
Very cool. I also retired at 57 after 35 years with the same company. I'm also single, 59 yrs old and never been happier. Cheers!

There are also lines such as: you will never exceed your wildest expectations (aka dream bigger!)
@@davidglad facts i agree, also dreaming is free,

The clarity in your mind is remarkable.
Clear thinking begins with seeing the world as it is and adapting accordingly.

Intention also means being pro-active in life, instead of being passive.
One makes your own luck.
Indeed positivity is a requirement for success!
You're right without the physical action of your goal nothing will happen
Your videos are great. I go on my lunchtime walks listening to your channel.
Thanks
Thanks for all of the good content here. A lot of TH-cam is just clickbait negativity with no solutions.
Absolutely right!
People love to make videos and complain about wom-en, but they never provide solutions or alternatives.
What a beautiful place, John, fall is wonderful
Success in life
I say have your process and procedures in order follow them
Make sure everyday counts and make sure organized
This is a winner in Life
Attitude is EVERYTHING!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
You are the Mannn, thank you for great advice!!!
Good talk. Thanks coach
Thanks
Clear direction. Loved it...
Especially about the mental of a pro athlete... 👍
This is timely and applicable for me just now , thanks brother.😊

If you've made a maybe you would probably feel differently.
Also someone's gotta make the babies. Why not you?
@@joendrsn I seriously doubt you have children but romanticize the family life.
@joendrsn becomes im busy with my purpose.
@christopherrobin361 exactly! All 14 of my siblings are parents, and 14 out of 14 said it's an overpriced and overrated experience.
Thanks! That takes the pressure off my kids!!
You just inspired me to persue a tech business idea I have had.
Thanks, John.
Thanks
Thank you!
Thank you.
You're welcome
This video is so motivating, thank you John!
Glad you enjoyed it!

We all live in our own reality in our heads...
Kind of amazing that we can coexist as peacefully as we do on this planet... 😂❤
The Pug abides. Hope you have a great weekend, John.
Thanks, you too!
I've found that 'Maslow's hierarchy of needs' is very helpful.

Your describing "the Generative principle" which is the definition of love. = care
Great video…great advice!
Glad you liked it!

Make yourself familiar with prolonged dry fasting on youtube and cut out all junkfood, sweets and in general processed food.
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,

And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but you must not quit.
Life is strange with its twist and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns
And many of failure turns about
When he might had won had he stuck it out,
Dont give up when the pace seems slow
You may succeed with another blow,
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you can never tell how close you are,
It may be near, when it seems so far,
So, stick to the fight, when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worse that you must not quit,

Are their any fish in that stream ?
Where do you keep the doggie poop bags
The empties are on the leashes. I leave the full ones on the trail and grab them on the way out.
Sounds like Dr Joe Dispenza has had some influence on this video.
Sir ur content is very good but I think u should work on your clickbaits of videos❤
Click bait is good thumb nails reel me in the content is like father Christmas
I heard emotions is energy in motion before in rich dad poor dad book. Good book.
