- Back in October of 2022 I started working a 9-5 for the first time in my life...
I've always kind of been holding off since graduating University as I was focused on helping my best friend grow his business.
After spending years and dedicating my time to the business, I was in a situation where I needed more money in order to move out with my girlfriend.
I finally landed that 9-5 job and then it made me realise...

When life and responsibilities hit harder than post nut clarity
Deep af bro
Damn i felt that bro 😭😂

Damn I'm experiencing post nut clarity right now and seen this comment.
The hardest part is being productive after the 9-5 grind cause all you want to do is sleep, recover and be lazy (especially if you work a labour intensive job)
100% 😪
Bro 9-5 is easy, try 5 to 5 my guy and do it for a week or two straight!

Nothing wrong with still living with you parents as long as you have goals
Of course! They’re definitely the reason why i can safely stop working this 9-5 soon and really try pursue content creation now that i know what i want to do 🥹❤️
Jujimufu lived with his parents until 27, to save money to buy a house.
@@Marta1Buck thats a really smart idea. Sometimes you have to pay a little rent but it goes back to your family at least, and not to some landlord
@@mastertrey4683 Did you mean mortgage? Cus if you have to pay rent to your parents they dont love you lol
@@dovahking6514 not everyone’s parents can afford not too
Being 16, having a brother recently getting a full time job and barely seeing him throughout the day has really got me thinking. When i was a kid and im sure alot of people can say the same thing, i used to want to be an adult, to want to make my own choices but as life goes on and that adult life approaching faster than i thought im starting to regret those things i said. I miss being a kid and not needing to think about having to make my own money to stay alive.. i dont want to spend 7+ hours at work and not have any free time... So for those early teenagers reading this, be grateful for what you have and use your youth to its fullest
100%! Being in my teens was the best time of my life. Everything was so much easier. Make the most of it man, and if you’re struggling to find things you enjoy and want to do in the future, i wouldnt let that stress you too much. It may not be now, but you’ll find your passion eventually 🙌🏼
7+ lol it’s 11 hours once you factor in commute and lunch break
Man I'm 25 and I'm still trying different things... I've been through about 5 different careers, and while all of them haven't really been my thing, I'm still doing my best to upskill myself. And hopefully I've found it with a fitness career. Sometimes it can feel depressing to feel stuck in a dead end job but it's the aspiration that keeps you going. Dw about it bro, adult life may seem scary but you quickly get used to it. Your brain develops too so that changes things a little bit as well.
As a 35 year old, I don't think it's that bad. Life changes but that doesn't have to be a bad thing. I found my closest friends at work, I got new hobbies and I have the money and freedom I didn't have when I was younger.
I just turned 29. And honestly it isn’t super bad. I’d honestly say I prefer adulthood over my teenage years because at least I actually have money and the freedom to do what I want. The only thing I miss of course are those long summer break vacations.
The one piece of advice I have for you - whichever career you enter in to, make sure the CULTURE is what you want. I cannot stress this enough. You can have your dream job and make a crap ton of money, but if you have a sh*tty boss/sh*tty coworkers/sh*tty leadership, then you would suffer. 😊
I’m in the same situation: I live with my parents and have low expenses. I decided to go back to community college so all I do is gym, school and I’m home. I think I needed this video to go out and get a job. I may not need the money right now, but I need to learn how to manage responsibilities
Exactly me
It’s better to work on it now than later! Super proud of you, youve got this 🥹❤️
I’m 26 and struggled to make ends meet on my own after being forced out of my parents house 18. I met my boyfriend whom I live with and now takes care of me so for the first time in years I have no expenses. I am going to community college myself to finish a nursing degree. Don’t be my age struggling to finish school or unable to provide for yourself. Take advantage of the opportunity to not stress about living expense and focus on your studies. 👏🏼 you got this ❤️
@@highvalue1195 I like your username . "My boyfriend takes care of me" lmaoo. He sure did luck out finding you.
same, but i think im just gonna do a lot more school! get it done asap
A little bit of back story for all of you!
Growing up I always thought my path was to graduate uni, make my parents happy, and get a full time office job.
After graduating uni, I held off and worked for Panda, the online coaching business i helped grow with my best friend, where i spent my time learning how to make videos, create content, and trying to grow the business.
I was always a little bit too comfortable with everything. Despite not making much money as the business was quite small, i really wanted to help grow the business where i could, i was comfortable playing games all day, comfortable training, and comfortable relying on other people to get things done for me.
But i guess life eventually catches up. When my relationship started getting more serious, I obviously couldn’t live like i was living. I needed to think about moving out, making more money, and having a stable income to support my future. So i finally decided to get a full time job and sadly give Panda a break.
At this time my videos had started slowly picking up which gave me a taste of what i could achieve by myself. And having finally experience what it was like working 9-5, I realised I had an option. Go through the motions of a boring life, or get of out my comfort zone, and really put my all into trying to pursue something as I’ve finally found something i wanted to do for the first time in my life.
Fast forward to today, ive been uploading every single day, havent had any time to play games or do much else really (but it’s fine, ill get back free time eventually!!), and im finally looking at stopping this 9-5 at the end of March to try and pursue content creation as my full time job.
And at the end of the day, it’s all thanks to all of you for watching my videos and supporting my content ❤❤
we appreciate your effort man. i wish u the best in life
I BELIEVE IN YOU LEE I LOVE YOU BRO
Wish you the best
Good luck my friend! I can relate so much about what you’re saying and I’m sure we’ll both do good. Keep working brotha😘
Love this dude. I’m in the same spot - working 9-5 and quit video games to try to build something better. In my opinion the key is to fall in love with process, then the thing you’re building becomes more satisfying than any game could be. Also your physique is ridonkulous 🍑🍑🍑🍑
You got it man, life is like chess, can’t take back a move just gotta look at the board in front of you and make the best move you can with what you got.
🙏🏼❤️
But to anyone this may give anxiety to , think about this chess game with a board of like a million pieces lol. So it's never too late to defeat what life is planning on throwing at you!
Man I’m 24 fixing to be 25 and I finally have gotten my own place and etc like a month ago (I know it took a minute but different strokes man ) however a lot of things have changed . It’s crazy cause the adulting thing has been a blessing and a curse . It’s a blessing to have that level of freedom you always wanted but now it’s a burden on bills , rent and other things and as much as I have a few of those things in line I’m still learning (literally scared every month that I may not have the rent or lose my job on super dumb shit ) . One thing I’ve figured out is responsibility comes from you wanting to be responsible for yourself or any other being . No one likes to work but it’s what drives us forward in our lives . Like I’m barely home during the week because of work and other activities and even when I’m home I want to go out because it gets terribly lonely but it’s so fulfilling at the same time being a functional member of society and being able to rely solely on myself is one of my biggest accomplishments as a man , I hope you get to experience that too so good luck
24/25 is a normal age to be getting your own place, taking full responsibility of your life, etc. I hope you find a special someone to share life’s blessings and happy moments with.
@@asiakhan5314 not in California lol
Apparently where I’m from, if you aren’t working overtime and basically clock out and still work for free, you’re a loser. I seriously hate this hustle culture. The ironic thing is, the people that talk shit are actually overweight and just sit around and gossip. Fuck our societal pressures.
@@asiakhan5314not sure where you live but settling down and own a house at 25 is out of reach for so many people
@@HaloDude557??? Esp in California wym, hella expensive here
man i cant wait to see lee being absolutely fkin shredded for his comp
Hahaha lesgooo cant wait 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I feel you. I finally signed up for a fast food job because I realized I needed to start somewhere to get money instead of leeching from my parents. I'm starting next week. It's my first job ever.
Wish you luck 👍
It doesn't get easier. You have to try and find a job that you love or at least you enjoy. Remember it can often be the people you work with that make the job brilliant and not the job.
Very true! ❤️❤️
That is bad advice. What this means is settling for the worse and looking at it on the bright side like people u work with. It is the fixed mindset and won't get u anywhere in life.
@@butWhyDad not it doesn't. What this means is finding a job you enjoy.
@@butWhyDad man you don’t know how work life is my guy.
@@trosales571 I know your work life sucks you do a job you don't like or care for but to go to lengths to think it is how it is and there is no other options is sad my guy.
Moving out is honestly the best thing I've ever done. My mum would do EVERYTHING for me at home. Washing, meals, etc. As amazing as it is, it's also tiring and annoying not being "responsible" for yourself when you're grown. So I left the house at 22 and haven't looked back. Yea the days are shorter when I got washing, cleaning, food, work etc to do. But at least I'm doing the things in my life. Not someone else.
Be grateful for parents that can help. Some of us have to learn on our own.
💔🫂... but that makes you tougher and more resourceful than the rest of us. Nobody can give you that.
Thank goodness you brought this up! Truly, investing has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life; working multiple jobs isn't the optimal way to attain financial freedom and unfortunately, we discover this later in life. Currently earn as much as 10 grand weekly and this has improved my financial life. Great piece!
Wow, congratulations on your impressive investment success! Your discipline and focus on delayed gratification is truly inspiring. I'm curious, what are some of the key factors that you consider when making investment decisions? Do you have any tips for those of us who are just starting to dip our toes into the world of investing? Thanks for sharing your story!
Do you mind sharing info on the adviser who
assisted you? I'm 39 now and would love to
grow my portfolio and plan my retirement
She's OLIVIA SULLIVAN FINANCIALS
she's a known advisor. I actually did look her up curiously and went through her credentials on her webbsite... Top-notch! I wrote her an email, hopefully she's accepting new intakes.
I'm definitely gonna check her out. Do yo have any idea if she manages family fund?
9-5 is anything but getting out of the comfort zone
For the average person.
This video found me when I need it the most! Thanks Lee Lem 🥺
I also live with my parents, and as an eldest Asian daughter, I’m kind of embarrassed with where I am in life. I took the board exam for Medicine a few months back and unfortunately failed. Right now I’m still struggling to find my footing in life but seeing this video is a comforting hug that I needed. I’ll come back to this video after a year (2024) as a licensed doctor.
I am rooting for you. Good luck.
Hope u make it
What's up dude , did you make it ?
What’s even crazier is all the adults in life who’d rather crush you and say “no shit” than relate to you and say “yeah I have dreams too, we’re all working on it”
I used to complain about 9-5 jobs, yet now I am working sometimes 8-7 and I miss them. That job schedule actually leaves you a lot of time if you manage your time properly.
I think what worked best for me was that I didn’t mind working 8 hours a day so long as I can decide how early I want to start. Like a 7am-3pm work day is actually a pretty nice schedule.
@@neycongjuico7395 Exactly. I used to work 6am-2pm and it didn't even feel like work, given that the whole free evening seemed like a day off.
That doesnt mean you still cant complain about 9-5. I used to complain about 6-2 but I miss it now. Theres always something better you can strive for
Sounds like you don't have kids
@@cookingsauce8274 good
Ah shit mate , you gonna make me tear up 🥲, we will all be here for you, and we wish you the best of the best of the best 😭😭🙏🏾
Thank you so much man 🥹❤️
Thanks for this video. 21 years old now, with no responsibilities and no job even though I just finished my diploma. It's been 3 months and I haven't found a job that I want yet. It's hard to find a job here other than anything about sales. Your videos really sum up my life, I'm scared about staying 9-6 and need to go out every day to work 6 days per week.
I support you bro!! Life’s to short to not chase your dreams❤
Love this - speaks to me so much.
I've lived with my parents for the past 3 years and it's been hard to find my passion without any sort of kick in the butt to move forward.
Getting my shit together, but for the first time in a long time it feels like I'm discovering what it means to be proud of myself. I've found a job I love and am about to start dental school - excited to see where life takes you as well.
Literally this: "Getting my shit together, but for the first time in a long time it feels like I'm discovering what it means to be proud of myself." 😭
All the best to you - we'll both make it one day 🥹❤️
Being financial independent and moving out is the best decisions ever. More power to you man!!
This made me felt a lot better about still living with my parents being 20 and attending online college with little to no responsibilities 😭💀 or job or source of income 😭😭😭☠️
Good luck lee! We believe in you man. You are a monster in the gym and you’ll be no less in the office!
Hahaha thank youu!
I admire your self awareness. I love seeing videos like this because it could be the spark that inspires someone else to go on the same journey. Good luck, we’ll get there eventually!
Very smart of you to quickly catch up on this. 9-5 can zap you of energy,dreams and everything in between. Have had to work the last 15 years to support my family, still trying to kick myself out of that cycle. Best time to do it is when you have don’t have dependants with the luxury of still living with parents😊
My first 9 to 5 job was at Walmart and I had to dig myself out of the hole that my parents dug. I biked 5 miles on a rusty ol Walmart bike in the 90 degree heat or wind/rain. Then 5 miles back. I eventually worked up to buying a car and moving out but i had to help pay rent as well. So it took a while to save up enough money to move out/buy a car when I had to help with bills. I had to learn how to adult really fast but I don't resent my parents at all for it. It's just really weird to see people who get more support instead of having to help support the family.
5 miles 💀
@@WinningEmpire yes
Because your parents are meant to support you not the other way around.
@@kjftg811 not the childs job. If they get old and can't wipe their ass by themselves then they need to go to assisted living.
@@352845if you've grown up in a low income environment you'd understand if you say you have and you've not helped support your parents and in turn yourself your a mooch or a big pos. If you have good parents and they are older you should help support them if they need it by getting them into retirement homes if they need it not doing that shows a genuine lack of respect you have for your parents
Daamn man you’re crushing it, I’m going to start my 9-5 job soon as well, this motivated me!
Good luck bro, you’ve got this!! 💪🏼💪🏼
I admire you bro. All I can say is don’t be too hard on yourself because you’re clearly already giving it all. Believe in yourself brother we love your content.
Thank youuuuu ❤️❤️
i just turned 16 and i really wanna work so i can get money and save it and i also wanna work at a gym so i can workout and i just wanna day taking that first step is really hard cause you really don’t know what to expect unless you take the first step so i’m proud of you lee you inspire me
Great mindset, go for it.
Thanks man! Definitely go for it bro! You've got a great mentality already for your age and there's no harm in trying your best ❤️
@@l_eel_em means a lot dude 🖤
Keep going. Hard work now pays dividends later it’s worth it. I’m so inspired by you making a one year plan I’m gonna try that myself
As a 16 year old wannabe body-builder who works from 7:30 till 4, working and just going out more often really displays the world on how it really is, sounds silly but you obviously just learn so much more about life itself and start to gain more respect for it, keep working your job, and doing things for you, live life and love every minute.
You got this. Tbh I find you to be super motivating and the quality of the content and its production really shows. Nothing but fan girl screams of encouragement for you. Also all this vid is missing is a dog and you'll be a movie about a 20 something finding their path 😂
Hahahahaha so true! Thank you ❤️❤️
Good for you! Taking that first step is hard. Good luck to you. I know you will do well.
Bros got a bakery 😤
I definitely think that there is a fine line between misery and having a job that pays well and allows you to live your life. I worked 40-50 hour weeks for about 8 years. The past few years I've been able to become a manager at a new job. I work 3 hours a week from home and make 80k per year. Pays enough for me to live comfortably and be home qith my kids. Find a job where you can work the system. Because every company you work for is going to try and take advantage of you. Good luck brother.
After realizing how much time I waste working 9-5 and how little it pays, it motivates me to learn how to start my own business or at least get a better career which is better paying and less time consuming. Life is worth more than just doing the same thing years on end just to retire old and worthless
I had the same mentality and it payed off- went from unemployed to a six figure job- got into coding- wasn’t easy. I grinded from waking to sleep for 8 months straight
As a headchef i work 12 to 15hrs a day..and tbh I dont do alot on my first day off cus im so tired, but i dont care cus I am at home, i sleep in and am.being cozy, petting the cats, watching my series, read, eat and do my weekly all shower routine..I love it ^^
this videos message hit me hard and pushed me to do something i’ve put off thank you
Lessgoooo, you've got this bro! ❤️
That’s great. I’ve been working different jobs and it’s not easy. I was battling anorexia for a year and then recently got fired but something better came along. I’ve learned life is truly a rollarcoaster. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger is true and you just gotta keep going. It’s -
also important to remember to rest and process your emotions whether it’s anxiety or fear. We are humans and not robots.The fact that you’re pushing yourself is amazing. Wish you the best!
I'm in the opposite position! Just quit my 9-5 and moving back in with my parents for the next few months while I get the coaching business to 10K! Adventurous days ahead!
Good luck bro, I've gotta give it my all this year too cause I'll be moving to university the year after. Hope you learn and grow from your journey!!
Thank youuuu! All the best to your journey too! ❤️
The one thing I struggle with when working 9-5 is just the consistent schedule. I can't do it. I have the motivation and drive to push myself to work after a tiring day but many days i just cant get to sleep, or dont want to and i slowly unravel. Even if i didn't do stuff afterwards, it still happens.
It scares me, because I don't know how I will ever maintain it.
try not to put to much 'extras' on your plate, you're already working 9-5 that means each day you've been productive in some regard.
@@leah38521 That's not what I struggle with. As I mentioned it's the schedule, I can't keep routine. Whether I do or don't do extra stuff after work, my routine slowly breaks down. It's nothing to do with the work load and everything to do with sleep hygiene and structure
Love the honesty and confidence from you. Out of fear of being judged, it can be scary to openly reveal what you're going through but this video is super relatable and truly inspiring for many of us. Thank you ♡
This just randomly showed up on my feed by I think I needed to see this. Thanks!
I come from a culture where it’s preferred for an unmarried woman to live at home with the parents until she’s married. I totally relate to this.
Monday to Friday 9-5 is the biggest scam of life. They should do 10 hour days Monday to Thursday with Friday, Saturday and Sunday off. That's true work-life balance.
Even better just 8 hours Monday through Thursday with the same weekly pay
That’s completely your (rather poorly thought out) opinion. Most people are only 100% productive for about 4-5 hours.
@Jeffrey S not here lol which is why people try to take off work once a week lol. Your weekends are cut short. You only have really Saturday to fully rest cause Sunday is like a weekday initself. Next thing you know you're 60 years old cause the 9-5 grind passes before your very eyes.
@@thispak I think he means it'd be better to do 5x6s instead. So it'd be 9a-3p
I have a 4 day a week schedule but I only make $20 an hour so I have to work 6 days a week instead
After university I moved out, worked for 6 years while working on my coaching side hustle. Two months before the CVID I left my job to pursue coaching full time. When the pandemic started, I moved back to the parents house because everything was closed and being closed in a flat in a city made no sense. 4 years later I am at the parents house, paying rent, and working on my online coaching business. Its taking much longer than I expected but I am not giving it up. ;) Maybe it will take you more time than a year. But I am sure you will keep pursuing your passion. Life is unpredictable, but keep your vision bright ;)
Deeply inspiring. You took the right step, not only because you're good at it, but because you're the right person, a good person who inspires others. You saw the potential in yourself and did something about it. You also give your viewers (myself included) insight on how we could challenge ourselves. Thank you Lee 🙏 you're in my prayers.
Thank you so much, that really means a lot! 🥹🥹❤️
Bro I graduated college and went back for my masters Bc I’m scared to get a fully committed job. Now that program is almost done and Idk what to do 😨😨😬
You have so much potential. You can do anything you want in life. Why work a 9-5 if it doesn’t make you happy? Chase your passions always.
We spend so much of our lives working, if you can make a living doing something you love then you have beat the system. I have nothing against anyone who works a 9-5, but I truly believe deep down that virtually no one would pick to do that if they had the choice. It’s just people are very scared or too lazy to chase their dreams. But that’s not you, I believe in you!
❤️🙏🏼
9-5 can help get stability when you first start even if its only 5-10 years its not a waste of life or doesnt mean you cant transition full time into passions
all the best dude! stepping out of comfort zones best feeling (despite the scared feeling)
I work a 9-5 and do the entrepreneur thing on the side. I think being able to do both is a blessing 🙏🏽❤️
I work full time shift work, started training in November after my Dad died and my partner of 6 years cheated.
We're now halfway through February and I have gone from 105kg down to 82kg.
I go to the gym 4-5 nights a week, god bless midnight sessions.
I'm 32 though, so I don't think I'll be aiming to replicate your physique 😂
All the while I study law, and am saving to relocate to Melbourne.
The risk of burnout is real, but I believe if you are really hungry for a goal then you will find a way to achieve it.
And by christmas, we're gonna feel pretty fucking stoked with ourselves.
Damn man, I'm super proud of you for how far you've come!
I'm keen for an update at the end of the year bro! Keep grinding - we've got this! 🙌🏼❤️
Imagine a Grown ass man proud of himself for getting a 9-5
What’s being a man got to do with it? He’s experienced / experiencing life completely differently to you.

I work 5Am-5pm and have lived in my own since I was 21, I am 26 now i never chose to live this way or even start this so young but don’t be nervous failing and finding what’s best for you is what your 20’s should be about

in a similar predicament, just started working full time and trying to balance my gym, family and passions has been crazy but seeing you go for it reassures me i’m not alone❤ good job man you’ll accomplish it all!
Thank youuu, all the best to you too 🥹❤️
Thanks for the content! I appreciate this a lot!
This is such an inspiring video. I think I've watched it 8 times now.
I love these videos. Your facial expression at the start makes me laugh so much and then the one where you grit your teeth when flexing and then you relax the facial expression after that gets me laughing 🤣
Keep it up man, so much love for you
Omg that’s so true, so much can change in a year
I'm in! You're on! I'm getting a divorce, getting out of a toxic marriage, and I'm starting over. I'm moving to a new state, starting a new job, taking online classes, and healing. One year to give it all we got. Let's do this.
I really relate to this! Good luck to everyone who’s in similar situation💕
❤️❤️
When I started my first full time job at 21 I thought the same thing.
I couldn’t imagine doing this the rest of my life. It was miserable.
I hope to escape the rat race soon via a series of certain habits and life decisions.
My goals this year are to complete pre requisite classes for nursing school and apply to school.
You got this, I look up to you. And I know you will do even crazier and better things. Keep it up ❤
Stay focused brother we need every man
I support your decision, your goals and your choice❤️🔥💪🏽
9 to 5 is rough while maintaining a diet and exercise but to be strict dieting and competing and running social media videos is a lot! More power to you bro, keep it going
Thanks bro, appreciate it!
It’s not long now till I finish up and invest in making this my full time job 🙏🏼
Dude I work 10 hours a day then work out and still have things to do at home… I feel like I literally have no time to ever chase what I really want to do.. so I’m glad your doing it while still living with your parents. I moved out and I’m married so it’s harder for me but I’m going to do a year with you buddy. Even if that means sleeping only 5 hours or 6 hours then so be it.
your in right path do what you love !!
That's actually such a good way of looking at a hard situation 😮
You can do it! That first full time job was hard for me too, and I was going through major depressive disorder at the time so it was… rough. But I got it going, and kept up with a little illustration freelance business on the side. I climb rocks and try new foods a lot. It’s very busy but you can find rhythms that give you space to rest as well… because rest is not negotiable. Sleep affects everything else you do, good or bad.
Takes courage to take on that first step . You got it mahn 😊 ( cheering from corner 🥳)
Yes you can do it and you will and above all you have to. Unfortunately no one will take care of us but ourselves. We have to keep pushing. Hard work is never something that should be frowned upon. It is the working hands of the past that make it easier for us to live today.
I am sincerely rooting for u! We can’t complain about having full plate when all we want to do is eat. Lets seize the day gentlemen!
🙏🏼
You got this broooo🔥💪
Thank you for the motivation I’ve been crying for the past hour because of not being able to figure out sht anymore
You’re an inspiration man. I’m in the same boat as you (for gen asian immigrant loll) I’m easily complacent and thought I had a plan for my life. I’m in my second sem of my first year in college and I’m not feeling the program. I gave it my all and now i’m 100% I need to pivot. Thanks, these types of videos I occasionally come across really help me to keep pursuing my dreams.
Ayee youve got this! Uni isnt the end all be all. Honestly i learnt absolutely nothing, still have my uni debt, and wasted so many years from it hahaha
But i see it as all part of the process in helping me find what i truly enjoy doing! Youll find it too one day ❤️🙏🏼
@@l_eel_em I agree, I didn’t learn anything lol. i’m lucky enough to say I don’t regret taking it, it was a very expensive trial year and a lesson in what I don’t like.
Same here. Started my 9-5 and it has been a struggle. The funny thing is, I work at my parents restaurant from 11am-10pm and I actually like doing that instead. Working with the family feels better than working corporate. Hopefully we all make it bro.
🙏🏼❤️
Whew! My dream man 😍
It's a balance between not being too hard on yourself and discipline. Taking your rest days, napping and making schedules you can more or less stick to is key. Remember, this "grind" lifestyle is pretty new to humans.
Exploring, making new goals and sticking to them is what it’s all about my man. If you end up deciding it’s not for you and you’re fortunate enough to make do working in a different way, at least you’ll have had that experience. Congrats on the commitment. 💪🏼
Working will just become routine and make everything else more enjoyable. You got this.
🙏🏼❤️
I'm sure you'll make it, keep on crushing it! Greetings from a fellow 9-5 guy but also doing TH-cam 📷😊
I’m on the same path! I needed to hear this and see it’s possible! I WISH YOU STRENGTH AND MENTAL FORTITUDE MY FRIEND
Super inspiring stuff!!
When it’s only been a week with second thoughts of moving back home is REAL.
Great idea, let’s own 2023 and beyond!!! 🍻
That’s awesome-I work full time and also go to school so it’s hard to prioritize fitness/health, but I’ve found my flow and really take advantage of weekends. A routine can seem like a prison sometimes, but really it’s a structural foundation we can build on
I'm 29, working full time as a utility contractor (luckily which pays really well), living on my own, and attending community college as a computer science undergrad trying to transfer to uni by this fall. From the age of 20-28 I was a business owner running a online digital marketing business which eventually lead me to near homelessness. Now I hardly have time to feed myself and sleep let alone anything else though I do try to make it to the gym minimum 3 times a week. It's hard, really hard yet deep down I know i'm making the right decisions. Keep focusing, your greatest enemy during this time will be yourself.
Good luck to you man. Keep pushing cause once you are free from the chains of having to ask someone else how high you need to jump you will be free and that is a feeling unlike anything in the world. I am working on the same.
I'm just 20 and I've been doing this for the past 1 year. I've made progress in GYM, at my work and also doing a part time gig just to get that extra buck in my pocket. I've developed a habit of reading books too and so far I've had no complaints with my life. It feels great when I look back at each day and appreciate myself that I've done something productive today.
Hope this motivates you a little bit, love your content. Keep Posting❤
Very smart. Good luck. 😊
Been working out on and off for a few months now and I think it’s time to take it more seriously now this man gives me inspiration
Love your work! Fitness influencing/online content creation can be a saturated market but you’ve got such a unique voice and approach. You really stand out, and we can see how much thought, effort and time goes into these videos.
Keep doing what you’re doing! We luv to see it
Thank youuuu 🥹❤️
Just wanted to say I’m proud of you and I have faith that you will achieve all of the goals you set for yourself
Thank youuu 🥹❤️
