If you feel depressed.. it is likely that you've been feeling anxious. For "anxiety in the heart (or mind/imaging faculty) of man causes depression" - Proverbs 12:25. "But a good word makes it glad". Just relax.. use positive self talk and trust that everything is going to be ok. Fear, apprehension and doubt has to go for you to see your good in your mind's eye.
In times of uncertainty, the need is to work on ones mind to switch from its very normal forward thinking plan filled with future expectations. This is the time to look around and find a position relative to the many in bigger trouble and even more “empty” than you feel. This is a time to dig deep and find more reasons for gratitude. Tough times but we are fortunate to be here at a time when science & technology has the ability to respond to any problem and work together to find solutions. This will pass. The time is to include as many as you can find , and ask them what Pat is asking you “ how you doing?”
Needed this big time! Lost my husband unexpectedly and tragically 6 months ago today....together and best friends for 22 years and have a beautiful 16 yr old daughter. I’ve been a realtor for 19 years...and I believe my success has been because I had the support of my husband. Fast forward to today, and add the pandemic of 2020 in...I’m struggling. Financially, emotionally and I just need to focus on what I know I can be great at. Being the best Mom ever...then everything else will come.
I look at this quote often when going through hard things. "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt
Thank you for checking in with us. It is so important to talk to people and see how they are. Everyone is going through some difficult times right now. A few encouraging words can save someone's day.
Life is tough man, people think that bad things happen to them and that is rare... But it is not. Having and issue or more at any given point in the life is normal.
one day i’ll be working at one of the top law firms in this god damned world and I’ll be thinking of that one time when Pat’s notification stopped me from completing my schedule just to remind me it is fine that two nights ago i was more emotional than usual. I’m going for the top man, and I am not stopping until the day i die, but more often than not i forget that emotions exist, thank you
This is why you’re a leader Pat. You’re in tune with what people are thinking and feeling and you articulate it. You’re a natural leader. You should run for office one day. I would vote for you (but I’m Australian). God bless you. The world needed to hear this.
I appreciate your content. These are crazy times, I had a travel business making almost $200k a year completely wiped out from covid. It took me 8 years to build. You are one of the few who are genuinely concerned about our well-being as we did nothing wrong this time around. Next time will be different.
The gratitude I have for you and your messages of hope, clarity and inspiration that are delivered with the force of a slow movin' train on a one way mission...on wheels of authenticity... .straight on through the muck, weakness and the clouds of confusion on the unbreakable tracks of love that arrive at the station of change that is located in my heart and has exits into all manner of incidence...just keeps piling up like so many stairs steps that lead me over the false wall of confinement into the sweet, sweet air and infinite landscape of freedom. Gratitude is the key that unlocks the door to the cell where i sometimes hide...when I forget who I am. Thank you Mr. Patrick bet-David...content Creator and HuMan liberator.

You should run really fast to just stay in the same place. To reach anywhere, you should run even faster. Here, in CIS countries, we always try to be ready to any disaster that might happen overnight. Local wars, economic disasters, national frauds, etc etc. We're done trusting anybody, let alone our government or the international trends. So we're in general try to secure ourselves as much as possible: have savings, have no debts, have supplies, have a place to escape. I know many people who lost their jobs during pandemic. I, myself, had to cut my working hours to like 3-5 hrs a week, just to mind the operational side of my business, because I had to take care of my kids more (homeschooling etc). But I also understand that people should be more careful and try to think in ahead and try to prepare in the GOOD times, so that when BAD times occur, they are READY. Pat makes a good point about being more attentive to other people. It's the hardest part of all: dedicating TIME to your nearest & dearest. But do. Sometimes all that saves a person from despair, depression and - God forbid - self-murder, is a simple TALK with someone who CARES. Very best to all.
Its tough. Wife has not seen her family for 10+ years now in eastern UA. Shes anxious. All of the airports we used to fly in & out of... Donetsk, Lugansk, etc all gone. Ruble devalued, Hryvna devalued. She has zero people to talk to because Americans dont understand any of this... Most Americans are worried about their next cell phone and new pair of shoes and then wonder why they are in debt from over eating and buying worthless stuff.
@Mr. A True. We have such a gap in our worlds and values, it's sometimes unthinkable to even try to jump it over. Like, one American lady had a hard time believing what it was like for us in the Great Patriotic War (WWII). She told us in response: "Well, we had a hard time too... not everyday during those days we could buy meat...". It's unthinkable to try to explain how our perspectives differ, given that for us war is in our blood and bones, with all its cruelties and horrors, and someone measures that hell on earth by just having to endure certain "limitations"... It's hard times that make people tougher. Hard times strengthen the character and amplifies common sense. Because it's survival that is #1 priority, not comfort. When people grow their common sense and perceive a real life through hardships and tragedies, that's when the game changes, and that's when typically people start thinking, planning and acting.
HennaGaijin thank you! And I know many Americans who do think this way, too. I’ve got a lot of friends in Texas who sometimes share perspectives with me that I’m constantly amazed with. Once again I’m pretty much sure: it’s not about the people, it’s about the system. Change the system - and you will change the people. Your current system is the cause for the type of mindsets it creates. Stay strong, there are a lot of people who support the same thinking. You are right; if only there were more, but it’s a matter of time and effort I hope. Warmest wishes.
I am hysterical. Literally. Thank you Patrick I've been a subscriber for a long time now. Out of every video I have watched and rewatched I want you to hear me say this to you. That was by far the most heartfelt inspiring touching personal and sincere honest content ever put out on UTUBE by ANY INFLUENCER. & I wanted to say how grateful I feel for being able to hear what you said. Never did I expect to hear anything of this topic from you --- never. It is so over saturated now on Utube with fake and phony people that it became discouraging to evan watch. You are a real influencer they all should sit down. Turn off the microphone and whatefer else they have as,a platform and start taking notes from A REAL GENUINE INFLUENCER ,,,, YOU!!!! I'm touched by your sincerity ,,, so very grateful. Now with both my parents gone ' it's just very hard. I wanted to thank you. Lobe and Blessings for you always. Best, Susan Bardaro
Living in faith and not only on sight is what allowed me to have build a spiritual relationship with God. You’re entitled to your opinion that’s what make this country so great. God Bless America. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
Feels like we’re trapped in a nightmare. I’ve also had to cut out people and activities that sapped my energy. Have prioritized things. Update: No coincidence to see today’s Jesus Calling entry for August 10: ‘...Energy and time are precious, limited entities. Therefore, you need to use them wisely, focusing on what is truly important. As you walk close to Me....I will show you how to spend your time and energy...”
It's only a nightmare if you choose to view it that way. Me, I could care less about this virus. I just focus on me, improving myself daily whether it's my body, my mental health, or my career. Stop worrying about things you can't do anything about. Just take care of you, because nobody else will :)
Being bombarded by the media with an endless stream of negative news is essentially causing mini-traumas that make us feel on edge and helpless. We can only control our own reactions, which then influences people in our small personal sphere of influence. Focus on what you can control to improve yourself and others around you while acknowledging (but not dwelling on) the innumerable things beyond your control.
"The chief task in life is simply this: to identify and separate matters so that I can say clearly to myself which are externals not under my control, and which have to do with the choices I actually control. Where then do I look for good and evil? Not to uncontrollable externals, but within myself to the choices that are my own…” - Epictetus
Great message, my kids hate this isolation especially because they haven’t been able to attend school or go anywhere this summer. We talk to them and encourage them to write in journals. It seems to be helping but they have days when they are emotional.
It's still very difficult for me to be hopeful at least with everything I've been going through until now and looking forward as well.. it's different for everybody of course cause we all walk very different paths in life but that doesn't mean it can't feel incredibly hopeless at times even though you want to keep going and hope for the better.
This was one of the best videos that I have watched so far. The deep or hidden message here is, we all need LOVE and compassion, no matter who we are, especially when hard times hit. Love and togetherness will bring us out of this darkness.
Is there anyone that can help you with this? Does she or you have any friends that can she can stay with while you're working? I'm sorry that you're going through this but please reach out to someone if you're being overwhelmed.
It sounds like you need a break. I'm sure your daughter can recognize this as well and it prolly adds to her stress. Take a much needed sick day regardless of the financial impact and spend it with your children. I'm sure it will be beneficial for you both. Good luck and God bless. Praying for you!
Exhausted, emotional spent dragging ass ya I feel ya I'd cry in the shower and outside I became a royal bitch hard as nails matter of fact I probably came by that naturally.lol as always right no room 4 debate today I don't sweat the small stuff oh I still have my days but I stand by my desistions the choices others made to tear my world apart well let's just say the have to see me every day I pray they never ever feel this pain but if they do they better never come apologize the time for caring words left that station long ago.if u have to curl up next to ur 4ft baby ask questions tell em u love them good bad or indifferent cause that's the way love works best tellem ur fears and how u plan to aspire to over come them #1 stand United right or wrong the wrinkles can & do iron themselves out I went from a 3bdrm two stories home 2 a 10x12 shed with a loft no power no water and I'm at peace with myself the new me what cancer treatments didn't kill the death of my mini me my #3 desimated
I appreciate all of you. I am praying for the end to this. It's got to stop before deaths from despair surpasses death from CV. These kids. I ache for them. I drove past an elementary school that has began boarding up their windows. Every child that went to that school and happens to drive by and sees it will be hurting, scared, confused and angry. How do you help that child's heart, mind and soul? What are we doing here? Where does this stop? At what point do you scream, "Enough is enough!"? We have been fighting viruses from the beginning of our existence. They travel from space, from animals, from soil, from air and from each other. Should we shut down our Milky Way? Block out the stars? Put a shield around the Earth's atmosphere? I pick up masks thrown onto our parking lot and wonder, "If they are catching such a deadly disease, why hasn't the city given us 'Biohazard Bins' to properly dispose of them? What makes it okay to put essential (we are ALL essential!) workers at risk by making us pick them up (and the hundreds of wipes)? I don't get it? If it's so contagious, why is this okay? They won't let us have any zinc products, isopropyl alcohol nor gloves to buy. What are they doing with all of them? Anyway. I'm sorry. I'm rambling with " the tired jollies". I demanded a vacation for 12 days starting next week. I make the schedules and going to make it happen. We're going to do our first road trip and see the Giant Sequoias and visit the Northern Cali coastline. I get to sit and rest and she gets out of the house and with her Mom. Flu season starts soon and we won't get any vacation once fall kicks in and then Holidays. Wait. Can they even go trick or treating? No football games to cheer at? No Thanksgiving Family Dinners? Christmas? What the hell are they doing to us? I'm sorry. This is all wrong. Something just doesn't add up. Much love to you all and thank you for your encouraging words and especially your Prayers. I want to cuddle my girl and get some sleep. God Bless you and keep you ❤️
You're a good man, Pat. Thank you for your COURAGE to be compassionate and to self-scout. The beginning of ALL knowledge is to Know Thyself. And it's up to us to help our kids to do the same. Thus comes Wisdom - and LOve.

Working with my manager this past few months has really been a huge lift for me in aspect of my financial life through his guidance on how and when to invest has truly been of great help to me I sincerely thank Jason Harper for all his help and guidance in an effort to make me a better trader
Trading with Jason Harper for me has truly been good for me and my family with Jason Harper I am able to earn $5700 weekly with his help and guidance and I started with just the bare minimum for trading
Being taught how to trade crypto currency by Jason Harper is the best thing that has ever happened to me trading with Jason Harper has taught me many things in this life. Jason Harper truly is a gem
Working with Jason Harper for me has been like a jaunt all the way for me I am always jubilant when ever I get my profit with Jason Harper. Jason Harper really has a knack for good strategy and strong signals

@@grumpy1311 How is him sitting on a chair rambling about "leading on empty", whatever that means, quality content? There's no editing so we know exactly how much time it took, as for the effort.... he's literally sitting on a chair. That being said, I am not against people monetizing their content as long as their content is worth something, but this guy is just a trend surfing click baiting list making con artist.
This is a beautiful PSA. Its not just you at your wits end. A good portion of workers have been hit on the head with a financial baseball bat. On top of that, our parents aren't allowed to hug our children. I endorse Mr Patrick's message. Thank you.
Awesome to hear today as I lead through my first month close with PHP Agency -- Prioritizing is top of my list! Progress not perfection. And yes, in any given moment, when distracted and off my priorities, I don't have to beat myself up, but own it and recommit.
i learned long ago, that what ever your going through you deserve. Some grow strong through adversity, others keep facing the same adversity. You can't move to the next level until you conquer this one. The truth is these hurdles mark your readiness to progress. The test comes first, then the lesson.
I needed this Pat. At work in tears just because I needed to hear that. Being given the opportunity to lead a machin and fab shop over the last year with grown men who been doing this as long as I been alive has had its challenges but we have turned the corner. But my relationship has suffered immensely and quality of life. Its hard feeling like nobody can relate to everything. While everybody needs something from you. We're not machines.
Pat. Respect man. This is such a valuable message. Particularly from a guy like you that more “staunch” guys respect! Lots of those guys don’t talk about their feelings enough! Cheers 😀🕺🏻🎥🏖🇦🇺
You nailed some really key points here Pat. Communication is easier than it's ever been in history with our current technology but...the quality of the content is at an all time low. Many people are living in silent fear because they feel that nobody really cares about them as an individual. When people ask how we are in general...they are not sincere...they don't really want to know and people can sense this because it becomes obvious that they are not listening to the answer. Too many people just want to talk about themselves. Many people just need somebody who will listen to them without judgement...without interruption...as you point out they need to release...So I agree that when we ask how somebody is,we should give them the opportunity to unload...sometimes this is enough to ease their concerns knowing that they have shared with an ear that has compassion. Secondly..wasting energy on matters that are beyond our control is such a huge drain on our mental well being. The propaganda that is spewed out by the Media is like a drip of toxicity that eats into our mind and cripples our capacity for rational thinking. Fear and worry create a chemical release into our bloodstream that attacks all aspects of the mind and therefore the body too. It is enough work just to focus on what situation we have to deal with in our own reality on a day to day. So if we choose to detach ourselves from what we can not influence we can free-up enough time and energy to take a genuine interest in the lives of those people we can help...the people we love and care about in our own neighborhood. You are the voice of sanity in a World gone crazy my Brother...Thanks for helping others to weather the storm. Peace and respect to you and yours.
Can't worry about what you can't control, not easy for sure, I struggle, BUT need to keep grinding and stay going forward, this will definitely make us stronger and God willing, it will be over soon...👍🏽🤘🏾
Pat this is a time when you have to rely on your faith, faith in your God, faith in your yourself. There was a time when I had a real challenge with health and finances. My wife’s health was being challenged and I was out trying to make some money and I got pulled over by the police and got arrested for having no insurance and suspended registration. Now it wasn’t my fault because my insurance agent didn’t listen when I said to let my insurance on my old car run out so I could keep the plates on it till I could sell it and give me a new policy on the new car I was driving. I had this one about a mont and I didn’t have it a long time. $150 in the bank I needed to get a lawyer or look at jail time. A minister friend of mine came by and told me to have faith in God and walk in peace. Long story short leaving out a lot. Taking his advice I slept for 3 days because I wasn’t only getting up to eat etc... went to court and found a lawyer who was best friends with the judge and where I had a judge who showed me animosity the week before I got a smile and case dismissed. Sometimes we have to take ourselves out of our troubles and let Providence work things out on our behalf wether we come up with an idea or or an opportunity comes up but Faith in what we know will work things out when we walk in peace.
You're very kind. It's great to have great communication with everyone in your home & friends as well. We never know what they're really going through. It's great to encourage, to listen and feel their pain, their happiness....
I am in a social media and news fasting exercise. Works wonders. I definitely recommend it. Do not poison your mind with negative stuff. As Patrick said it , we will go thru this. Before you know it , things will be better. Stay positive.
You can’t focus on the past. You can’t focus too much on the future...get through today the best person, the most motivated, the most loving you can be. Tomorrow will be here soon enough.
I've been leading on empty. But I choose it. Literally broke down today, while getting stretched to the limit with clients. Weird timing on this video man. Thank you.
This is how I made it to 84 & 1/2 (smiles) but mostl wit the HELP of the good Lord!!!!! I think your advise is good for the younger folk...DO NOT FORGET TO KEEP IN TOUCH WITH TE MAN UP ABOVE........
My gosh did I need this. I am energized, but running extremely thin. Gotta cut the fat in a few things in life so I can not lead on empty. Ditch the energy drains. (Helping friend with a place to live, but he is eating up all my energy) I need to spend that energy on those who need it and take advantage of my help
Hey Patrick. I really appreciate your frankness about your past personal struggles and reaching out to world to share your inspiring words of wisdom. Your life path from humble beginnings to becoming a self-made success is inspiring!
Patrick, who knows better than you and your parents what its like to Lead on Empty. Im sure the majority of people tuning in today have never stood under a stairwell for protection from bombs falling on your house. I thought i had traumatic experiences as a child till you told the story of being 10 years old standing under a stairwell with your family to protect yourselves from the falling bombs. And how you looked at your Father in fear and how he assured you that everything was going to be ok. That story is very moving.
How you doing?
Pushing forward everyday, we have to stay open. Thanks man 👍
Doing alright, can't complain when there's always a bigger complaint. How you doing?
Pushing the limits! Future look's Bright!

But I also understand that people should be more careful and try to think in ahead and try to prepare in the GOOD times, so that when BAD times occur, they are READY.
Pat makes a good point about being more attentive to other people. It's the hardest part of all: dedicating TIME to your nearest & dearest. But do. Sometimes all that saves a person from despair, depression and - God forbid - self-murder, is a simple TALK with someone who CARES.
Very best to all.
very well spoken
Alien Geek thank you.
Its tough. Wife has not seen her family for 10+ years now in eastern UA. Shes anxious. All of the airports we used to fly in & out of... Donetsk, Lugansk, etc all gone. Ruble devalued, Hryvna devalued. She has zero people to talk to because Americans dont understand any of this... Most Americans are worried about their next cell phone and new pair of shoes and then wonder why they are in debt from over eating and buying worthless stuff.
@Mr. A True. We have such a gap in our worlds and values, it's sometimes unthinkable to even try to jump it over. Like, one American lady had a hard time believing what it was like for us in the Great Patriotic War (WWII). She told us in response: "Well, we had a hard time too... not everyday during those days we could buy meat...". It's unthinkable to try to explain how our perspectives differ, given that for us war is in our blood and bones, with all its cruelties and horrors, and someone measures that hell on earth by just having to endure certain "limitations"...
It's hard times that make people tougher. Hard times strengthen the character and amplifies common sense. Because it's survival that is #1 priority, not comfort.
When people grow their common sense and perceive a real life through hardships and tragedies, that's when the game changes, and that's when typically people start thinking, planning and acting.
HennaGaijin thank you! And I know many Americans who do think this way, too. I’ve got a lot of friends in Texas who sometimes share perspectives with me that I’m constantly amazed with. Once again I’m pretty much sure: it’s not about the people, it’s about the system. Change the system - and you will change the people. Your current system is the cause for the type of mindsets it creates. Stay strong, there are a lot of people who support the same thinking. You are right; if only there were more, but it’s a matter of time and effort I hope. Warmest wishes.
Thank you Mr. Bet-David for your concern for your fellow human. Many blessings to you and your famliy

Your videos are saving my LIFE 😤😢
Hello sexy...🔥❤😘😍
Question: is the glass half empty or half full?
Pat: YES.
😂😂😂
Requote: People who see the glass as half full are missing the point... The glass is refillable.
Both, darling, both.
obviously the glass is fully full half water half air
It depends what state the glass was in to get it to that point
Pat you are a great man... I'm 14 and i look up to you. I love your story man.
You have a great future..
I'm doing good Pat, thanks for checking up on us.
I dido this comment 👍🏾❤️
@@renejr2296 Sorry I totally thought you said "I dildo this comment"... I was lost for a moment!
I am hysterical. Literally. Thank you Patrick I've been a subscriber for a long time now. Out of every video I have watched and rewatched I want you to hear me say this to you. That was by far the most heartfelt inspiring touching personal and sincere honest content ever put out on UTUBE by ANY INFLUENCER. & I wanted to say how grateful I feel for being able to hear what you said. Never did I expect to hear anything of this topic from you --- never. It is so over saturated now on Utube with fake and phony people that it became discouraging to evan watch. You are a real influencer they all should sit down. Turn off the microphone and whatefer else they have as,a platform and start taking notes from A REAL GENUINE INFLUENCER ,,,, YOU!!!! I'm touched by your sincerity ,,, so very grateful. Now with both my parents gone ' it's just very hard. I wanted to thank you. Lobe and Blessings for you always. Best, Susan Bardaro
Most people are leading on empty with their relationship with God
Knowing the kind of Strength we gain From That, We decide to Neglect What's More Important over what they said is More Important.
Saddle421 so true salute from Glasgow Scotland 🏴
God is fake so praying is leading on empty
Living in faith and not only on sight is what allowed me to have build a spiritual relationship with God. You’re entitled to your opinion that’s what make this country so great. God Bless America. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
I was looking for this comment. If it was not here I would have said it.
"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge ".
I am grateful to be here, and have the opportunity to see this. Also love the way you teach human beings to become all they can be!
I feel I'm leading when I'm on empty and I'm only 20 but you showing the greats
You're a very, very kind-generous-thoughtful-enlightning, etc.etc.....PERSON. THANK YOU.
Feels like we’re trapped in a nightmare. I’ve also had to cut out people and activities that sapped my energy. Have prioritized things. Update: No coincidence to see today’s Jesus Calling entry for August 10:
‘...Energy and time are precious, limited entities. Therefore, you need to use them wisely, focusing on what is truly important. As you walk close to Me....I will show you how to spend your time and energy...”
YEAH, it's pretty surreal, isn't it ~ ?!
It's only a nightmare if you choose to view it that way. Me, I could care less about this virus. I just focus on me, improving myself daily whether it's my body, my mental health, or my career. Stop worrying about things you can't do anything about. Just take care of you, because nobody else will :)
That’s a good perspective
Being bombarded by the media with an endless stream of negative news is essentially causing mini-traumas that make us feel on edge and helpless. We can only control our own reactions, which then influences people in our small personal sphere of influence. Focus on what you can control to improve yourself and others around you while acknowledging (but not dwelling on) the innumerable things beyond your control.
"The chief task in life is simply this: to identify and separate matters so that I can say clearly to myself which are externals not under my control, and which have to do with the choices I actually control. Where then do I look for good and evil? Not to uncontrollable externals, but within myself to the choices that are my own…” - Epictetus
Great message, my kids hate this isolation especially because they haven’t been able to attend school or go anywhere this summer. We talk to them and encourage them to write in journals. It seems to be helping but they have days when they are emotional.
It's still very difficult for me to be hopeful at least with everything I've been going through until now and looking forward as well.. it's different for everybody of course cause we all walk very different paths in life but that doesn't mean it can't feel incredibly hopeless at times even though you want to keep going and hope for the better.
Yes! We all have different situations, it depends on how we handle it.
Thank you for the support & lifting me up. Greetings!
I love this channel.. great insight great advice and awesome interviews. Keep em coming!
This was one of the best videos that I have watched so far. The deep or hidden message here is, we all need LOVE and compassion, no matter who we are, especially when hard times hit. Love and togetherness will bring us out of this darkness.
I like this guy. We're ok I guess. Hope you're fine too.👍
I have the right environment !
The teens have shut down. I can't reach her, she's THAT depressed. I'm working a 96 hour workweek and she's all alone, all day and night.
Oh hell. I am so sorry 😞 . That's gotta be hell. Any options for you to cut back on hours? 🤔Man that trap sucks. Hugs. 💖
Is there anyone that can help you with this? Does she or you have any friends that can she can stay with while you're working? I'm sorry that you're going through this but please reach out to someone if you're being overwhelmed.
It sounds like you need a break. I'm sure your daughter can recognize this as well and it prolly adds to her stress. Take a much needed sick day regardless of the financial impact and spend it with your children. I'm sure it will be beneficial for you both. Good luck and God bless. Praying for you!
Exhausted, emotional spent dragging ass ya I feel ya I'd cry in the shower and outside I became a royal bitch hard as nails matter of fact I probably came by that naturally.lol as always right no room 4 debate today I don't sweat the small stuff oh I still have my days but I stand by my desistions the choices others made to tear my world apart well let's just say the have to see me every day I pray they never ever feel this pain but if they do they better never come apologize the time for caring words left that station long ago.if u have to curl up next to ur 4ft baby ask questions tell em u love them good bad or indifferent cause that's the way love works best tellem ur fears and how u plan to aspire to over come them #1 stand United right or wrong the wrinkles can & do iron themselves out I went from a 3bdrm two stories home 2 a 10x12 shed with a loft no power no water and I'm at peace with myself the new me what cancer treatments didn't kill the death of my mini me my #3 desimated
I appreciate all of you. I am praying for the end to this. It's got to stop before deaths from despair surpasses death from CV. These kids. I ache for them. I drove past an elementary school that has began boarding up their windows. Every child that went to that school and happens to drive by and sees it will be hurting, scared, confused and angry. How do you help that child's heart, mind and soul?
What are we doing here? Where does this stop? At what point do you scream, "Enough is enough!"? We have been fighting viruses from the beginning of our existence. They travel from space, from animals, from soil, from air and from each other. Should we shut down our Milky Way? Block out the stars? Put a shield around the Earth's atmosphere?
I pick up masks thrown onto our parking lot and wonder, "If they are catching such a deadly disease, why hasn't the city given us 'Biohazard Bins' to properly dispose of them? What makes it okay to put essential (we are ALL essential!) workers at risk by making us pick them up (and the hundreds of wipes)? I don't get it? If it's so contagious, why is this okay? They won't let us have any zinc products, isopropyl alcohol nor gloves to buy. What are they doing with all of them?
Anyway. I'm sorry. I'm rambling with " the tired jollies". I demanded a vacation for 12 days starting next week. I make the schedules and going to make it happen. We're going to do our first road trip and see the Giant Sequoias and visit the Northern Cali coastline. I get to sit and rest and she gets out of the house and with her Mom. Flu season starts soon and we won't get any vacation once fall kicks in and then Holidays. Wait. Can they even go trick or treating? No football games to cheer at? No Thanksgiving Family Dinners? Christmas? What the hell are they doing to us? I'm sorry. This is all wrong. Something just doesn't add up.
Much love to you all and thank you for your encouraging words and especially your Prayers. I want to cuddle my girl and get some sleep.
God Bless you and keep you ❤️
You're a good man, Pat. Thank you for your COURAGE to be compassionate and to self-scout. The beginning of ALL knowledge is to Know Thyself. And it's up to us to help our kids to do the same. Thus comes Wisdom - and LOve.

This is the philosophy that should be taught in our schools. Screw that social justice crap. We need more compassion in this world... follow me.
"We need more compassion in this world" is exactly why the narcissistic sociopath Donald Trump and his Administration needs to be voted out on November 3rd.

Working with my manager this past few months has really been a huge lift for me in aspect of my financial life through his guidance on how and when to invest has truly been of great help to me I sincerely thank Jason Harper for all his help and guidance in an effort to make me a better trader
Trading with Jason Harper for me has truly been good for me and my family with Jason Harper I am able to earn $5700 weekly with his help and guidance and I started with just the bare minimum for trading
Being taught how to trade crypto currency by Jason Harper is the best thing that has ever happened to me trading with Jason Harper has taught me many things in this life. Jason Harper truly is a gem
How do I get through to Jason Harper I have heard so much about him from different sources
Can someone help me with his contact please
Working with Jason Harper for me has been like a jaunt all the way for me I am always jubilant when ever I get my profit with Jason Harper. Jason Harper really has a knack for good strategy and strong signals
Thanks Patrick. So well said. We need more compassion one for another. The world is such a strange place just now
*Thnx for the advice... BUT how many ADS ya gonna stuff in a 10 min Video?*
It's not really up to him, lots of ads are forced on the content creators that haven't been demonetised
Reason number one why I'm a huge fan of yours! Bought your shirt, hat, books and I'm aware that I'm late in the game at 62 however, you motivate me to no end son! Thank you again for another inspiring video. You Rock!
As kids we thought adults had it "all" figured it out. Smh.
Who's we?
That’s because they never wanted us to worry and wanted to have a good happy childhood.
Mr. Spartan true
At least they didn’t let the whole world go to crap like the fools running these liberal states and cities today. They’re just making a bad situation worse and it also makes you wonder how much of this pandemic they are behind.
Glad I've found many communities of similar mindsets. People who find opportunity and growth in any and every situation. That's true Power.
Let's get after it!
Is just me or everyone? I had 5 ads in 10 minutes content... man that's mental, have no f idea what Patrick said here🤬😤🤦♂️
So, if you hit replay, it will play through without them i believe. Might just be my phone, but thats what I happens when I am replaying something technical. 🤷♀️
YES, AND THEY ALL WERE FOR *NETFLIX*, PAT!
You don't seem to get it. The adds are the whole point of the video. Or did you actually think he's helping?
@@mekmekoo1269
It takes time and effort to put together quality content. He has every right to be compensated.
Get TH-cam Red , no adds
@@grumpy1311 How is him sitting on a chair rambling about "leading on empty", whatever that means, quality content? There's no editing so we know exactly how much time it took, as for the effort.... he's literally sitting on a chair.
That being said, I am not against people monetizing their content as long as their content is worth something, but this guy is just a trend surfing click baiting list making con artist.
You nailed this subject, Patrick. Time to spread cheer not fear.
Despite the pandemic this is a good thing me to start up an investment
Invest in crypto and gold 💯
Crypto is the future
Stocks are good too
Stocks are good crypto is better
I wanted to trade crypto but got confused by the fluctuations in price
This is a beautiful PSA. Its not just you at your wits end. A good portion of workers have been hit on the head with a financial baseball bat. On top of that, our parents aren't allowed to hug our children. I endorse Mr Patrick's message. Thank you.
me: hey pat, what time is it?
pat: I don’t know I DONT HAVE THE MA-NU-AL
Hope you have an awesome day if you're reading this! Whatever it is you're going through, you can come out on top cuz youre a strong leader💪
You're almost like the dad or big brother I never had. Thank you for all you do...
Thanks Pat-David, this is so important, it reminds us that we are human and a community.
Pat, I listen to your talk 2 days straight! I feel very much heard, known and understood.
Thank you Patrick
I have 9 minutes of my break left Time is 9:21am. I'll call my mum on my next break.
Quickly become my favorite TH-cam channel, keep it up
You can tell, Patrick is a natural leader.
Awesome to hear today as I lead through my first month close with PHP Agency -- Prioritizing is top of my list! Progress not perfection. And yes, in any given moment, when distracted and off my priorities, I don't have to beat myself up, but own it and recommit.
One of the most genuine dudes on TH-cam right here.
i learned long ago, that what ever your going through you deserve. Some grow strong through adversity, others keep facing the same adversity. You can't move to the next level until you conquer this one. The truth is these hurdles mark your readiness to progress. The test comes first, then the lesson.
GOD bless you and your family ❤️ . YOU are a Good man with Big heart 👍🏻
I needed this Pat. At work in tears just because I needed to hear that. Being given the opportunity to lead a machin and fab shop over the last year with grown men who been doing this as long as I been alive has had its challenges but we have turned the corner. But my relationship has suffered immensely and quality of life. Its hard feeling like nobody can relate to everything. While everybody needs something from you. We're not machines.
Pat. Respect man. This is such a valuable message. Particularly from a guy like you that more “staunch” guys respect! Lots of those guys don’t talk about their feelings enough!
Cheers
😀🕺🏻🎥🏖🇦🇺
That’s the key...worry only about the things you have control over
You nailed some really key points here Pat. Communication is easier than it's ever been in history with our current technology but...the quality of the content is at an all time low. Many people are living in silent fear because they feel that nobody really cares about them as an individual. When people ask how we are in general...they are not sincere...they don't really want to know and people can sense this because it becomes obvious that they are not listening to the answer. Too many people just want to talk about themselves. Many people just need somebody who will listen to them without judgement...without interruption...as you point out they need to release...So I agree that when we ask how somebody is,we should give them the opportunity to unload...sometimes this is enough to ease their concerns knowing that they have shared with an ear that has compassion. Secondly..wasting energy on matters that are beyond our control is such a huge drain on our mental well being. The propaganda that is spewed out by the Media is like a drip of toxicity that eats into our mind and cripples our capacity for rational thinking. Fear and worry create a chemical release into our bloodstream that attacks all aspects of the mind and therefore the body too. It is enough work just to focus on what situation we have to deal with in our own reality on a day to day.
So if we choose to detach ourselves from what we can not influence we can free-up enough time and energy to take a genuine interest in the lives of those people we can help...the people we love and care about in our own neighborhood.
You are the voice of sanity in a World gone crazy my Brother...Thanks for helping others to weather the storm. Peace and respect to you and yours.
Can't worry about what you can't control, not easy for sure, I struggle, BUT need to keep grinding and stay going forward, this will definitely make us stronger and God willing, it will be over soon...👍🏽🤘🏾
Pat this is a time when you have to rely on your faith, faith in your God, faith in your yourself. There was a time when I had a real challenge with health and finances. My wife’s health was being challenged and I was out trying to make some money and I got pulled over by the police and got arrested for having no insurance and suspended registration. Now it wasn’t my fault because my insurance agent didn’t listen when I said to let my insurance on my old car run out so I could keep the plates on it till I could sell it and give me a new policy on the new car I was driving. I had this one about a mont and I didn’t have it a long time. $150 in the bank I needed to get a lawyer or look at jail time. A minister friend of mine came by and told me to have faith in God and walk in peace. Long story short leaving out a lot. Taking his advice I slept for 3 days because I wasn’t only getting up to eat etc... went to court and found a lawyer who was best friends with the judge and where I had a judge who showed me animosity the week before I got a smile and case dismissed. Sometimes we have to take ourselves out of our troubles and let Providence work things out on our behalf wether we come up with an idea or or an opportunity comes up but Faith in what we know will work things out when we walk in peace.
good nutrition... getting that knowledge takes years. Correct exercise... correct rest... correct emotions... correct words...
You are the older brother l always wanted!!🥺🥺💗💗 This is what the internet was made for. Continue sharing your wisdom man!!!
You're very kind. It's great to have great communication with everyone in your home & friends as well. We never know what they're really going through. It's great to encourage, to listen and feel their pain, their happiness....
I am in a social media and news fasting exercise.
Works wonders. I definitely recommend it.
Do not poison your mind with negative stuff. As Patrick said it , we will go thru this. Before you know it , things will be better. Stay positive.
You can’t focus on the past. You can’t focus too much on the future...get through today the best person, the most motivated, the most loving you can be. Tomorrow will be here soon enough.
Patrick,
Thank you for your real conversations and your authenticity!
I've been leading on empty. But I choose it. Literally broke down today, while getting stretched to the limit with clients. Weird timing on this video man. Thank you.
Thanks for reminding us and others we are not robots! I'm doing better than when the pandemic began. Sending hugs.
This is how I made it to 84 & 1/2 (smiles) but mostl wit the HELP of the good Lord!!!!! I think your advise is good for the younger folk...DO NOT FORGET TO KEEP IN TOUCH WITH TE MAN UP ABOVE........
👋🏾Thanks for asking, I clicked the video simple because of that question. I hope you and everyone else in the comments enjoy your days! 😄❤️
My gosh did I need this. I am energized, but running extremely thin. Gotta cut the fat in a few things in life so I can not lead on empty. Ditch the energy drains. (Helping friend with a place to live, but he is eating up all my energy) I need to spend that energy on those who need it and take advantage of my help
Emotional leaches are tough. But temporary right? ' this is temporary, this is temporary, 🤪🤣🤣🤣 #StayLegendary 💪you got this💥

Patrick, who knows better than you and your parents what its like to Lead on Empty. Im sure the majority of people tuning in today have never stood under a stairwell for protection from bombs falling on your house. I thought i had traumatic experiences as a child till you told the story of being 10 years old standing under a stairwell with your family to protect yourselves from the falling bombs. And how you looked at your Father in fear and how he assured you that everything was going to be ok. That story is very moving.
Thank you Patrick for your message....It comes at the best time ... Right Now!!!!
