    As a Millennial guy, i enjoyed this channel since you're very mature than some of the adults in my age range and older. I support all my Gen Zs, Millennials, Gen X and late Baby Boomer friend. I have more of Gen Z, Gen X and Baby Boomer personality in me. I learned a lot from all generations of people since I'm an introvert.

    I'm a 24 yr BM who grew up on the Southside of Chicago in the wild 100s. I used to been pulled over by CPD and got arrested for DUI at age 19 and fast driving. I had so many traffic tickets but I paid them off by myself. I would treat Stony Island like a racetrack. I'm glad that I changed from what I used to do and maturing. I still drive fast but with caution. My wife and I was pulled over by Winnetka IL PD in her hometown for driving too fast on Green Bay Road heading back home but the officer was cool and that was my wake up call. I'm a new subscriber to the channel. My wife and I was born in 2000 when 9/11 happened when we was only 1. We had to fight like hell back in elementary and high school. My wife would tell you her story of getting suspended from highschool since we grew up with Gen-X parents who gave us an old school straightforward message.

    You are so wise beyond your years! You figured out so many things I did not realize until I was in my thirties.😂 I think you have nothing but success ahead of you.

    Damn, Del is based! So refreshing to see someone finally going against the current toxic trend of just ignoring failure due to misinterpretations on what it means. Next up is to just make a video explaining that comparison is not bad by itself, and it is just a matter of extracting the great things about it (learning from the steps of others, learning limitations on your current path, admiration from the others' success, and more things).
    “If you don’t know, the thing to do is not to get scared, but to learn.”

    Thank you for sharing your testimony Del. I grew up in the northern suburbs of Winnetka, IL where the Home Alone house is located at. My husband grew up in the Southside of Chicago in the wild 100s. He is very street smart and I'm very suburban smart. We both learned from each other. I was born deaf and he's a hearing person. He learn ASL and sign language within a year. Me, my sister and her husband have to wear cochlear implants so we can hear since we're deaf. I was in the same boat as you but I had to stay strong in this journey.

    It is comforting to know that there are others who experience the same feelings and thoughts as us. I know it is silly to assume we're alone in how we feel and think, but for some reason it is just so nice to hear others have these experiences too. Thank you for sharing!

      I'm an overthinker as well. It encapsulates everything in my life: stuff, the economy, people, relations, myself, and this comment. It's second nature, and I can't stop it. Anytime I try to "let it go," it just comes back.

    "If we can learn from our mistakes and not let them rob us of our boldness or hope, then we can grow." I learned this from my religious (Buddhism). I have experience from making mistakes and being a failure. It's good because for a lesson, and later you will eventually making an accomplishment.

    I'm a perfectionist too, many times I noticed that I spend too much time on a specific part of a topic and I forget about progressing, but I found a solution for this. Bookmarking. In a literal and in a metaphorical way. If you organize your bookmarked pages and even keywords, thoughts, things you want to understand or complete better later on, you don't feel guilty for leaving something in an unfinished state, because you provided a chance to do it later, until then, you can care about progress instead. :) Many times I find out later that the thing which I wanted to waste too much time on was not that important for the whole picture as I first believed. Getting consistently ahead is more favourable than spending too much time on a specific detail, but always make it possible to do so.

I tried listening to Sleep Token however could never get into them. I was always more of a Ghost guy to be honest. And Ive caught a few, the one on my chain is a Hammerfall one, I got one from Glory Hammer and gave it too a mate because he was a super fan and I also got one of Geoff Tate.
