    1-Find Your Purpose
    2-Count On Yourself
    3-Show Up EveryDay - Daily Actions
    4-Practice Voluntary Hardship - Get Out Of The Comfort Zone & Constantly Test Yourself
    5-Practice Dichotomy Of Control - Some Things Are Within Our Power, While Others Are Not - We Almost Always Assume We Have More Control Over Events Than We Truly Do
    6-Never Play The Victim - Step Up Even When It's Not Your Fault - No Excuses
    7-Practice Delayed Gratification - Overcome Your Desires & Temptations
    8-Ignore Naysayers - Do Not Take It Seriously
    9-Find Wise People To Emulate
    10-Honestly Review Your Day - Meet Your Subconscious. You'll Find Your Weak Spots & You'll Become More Self Aware
    11-Forgive Yourself 😁
    I Hope It's Helpful ✌

    I load trucks for a living. Its the most physically demanding job ive ever had. Most of us are exhausted after a few hours- with a few more hellish hot & heavy hours to go. & im 51 years old 😀
    I use the painful hours as a way to reinforce my resolve. Theres no point in complaining. Theres no point in quitting. The only thing to pursue is moving & stacking the mattresses, bbq grills, generators, trampolines, bag of dog food & whatever else comes down the belt. Once you accept the pain, it gets easier. Its miserable work, but i dig it.

      @hex warp Mass migration to primarily white nations like the US and those in Europe.
      Western civilizations/societies that have been built over the last millennium or several centuries will be unrecognizable in 40 years maximum - if policy and migration continue the way they are currently.
      Examples of this can been seen in, but not limited to the US, Ireland, and Sweden. Whites Europeans in the US have gone from 90% of the population in 1960 to roughly 60% today - this is significant. Ireland has a population of 4.7 million and plans to accept 1 million migrants by 2040 - this is significant. Sweden has a population of 10 million and has offered asylum to 10 million Turkish Uighurs from China - this is significant. These migrants will out breed the native population rendering them minorities in their homelands thus changing the regions and cultures indefinitely.
      These native populations are being replaced right before our eyes. Saying that whites are native to North America/US isn't entirely factual but whites primarily built the US where as these replacing populations are inheriting western societies - being given to them by elites and politicians.
      "Focusing on these two striking and critical trends, the report examines in detail the case of eight low-fertility countries (France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, Russian Federation, United Kingdom and United States) and two regions (Europe and the European Union). In each case, alternative scenarios for the period 1995-2050 are considered, highlighting the impact that various levels of immigration would have on population size and population ageing." - the UN

      So this week, I went another step further with my running, tackling an uphill slope exatcly in the middle for the first time, I was past 20 minutes, the dopamine was flowing alright, still I was a little anxious about it. An uleashed dog feels it's a good idea to chase me at exactly THAT point! The smart thing would be to stop running, right, but, no, no, no, you won't, no excuses girlfriend, only when that mutt had snatched at my shirt, I felt I had no other option. Tbh, I doubt I was wise, maybe there can be such a thing as too much discipline too. I went up anyway, after I had finished nearly slapping the holder into the face . Well. ... :D

    I’ve found a simple mindset shift that might help others: Whenever I face tasks I don’t particularly enjoy, such as work, school assignments, or household chores, I used to grumble and procrastinate. Now, instead of resisting, I mentally prepare myself by saying, “Challenge accepted.” This small change in attitude has made a significant difference in how I approach and complete these tasks.!

    I just started reading The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday and Stephen Hanselman this year. 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living. It was on the free list of my daily Bookbub e-mail and I thought what the heck. Now, this practice is showing up a lot on my computer. People tell me that I am a stoic person but I don't think they really understand what it means. To them, I guess it means that I don't show my emotions, but I learned a long time ago I can't control the world so I just live my life. The philosophers and their thinking is something I have never touched on before and I am finding all this very interesting. I am receiving so much new information and I know this is going to become a life-long study for me.

    Getting mentors or coaches (wise people) to guide us on this journey is also very important
    Voluntary discomfort eg fasting, cold shower or early morning wake up can create mental toughness

    Simply amazing; one of my favourite videos! The principles, as well as the method chosen to deliver them is gripping. Thank you for this video.

      I need you to understand self discipline is the main thing. It's the ultimate demon, it's the hardest thing to conquer because once done you can conquer ANYTHING. Everything comes down to self discipline, changing your body, making money, drug addictions. You're capable of so much so don't let those voices in your head keep you back. You deserve everything you want it just all comes down to discipline don't give up. Anyway I just made a video on all this and went in deep I would appreciate if you checked it out, thanks. 🙏

    You have given me a lot to think about wise TH-cam man. I'll come back in a year to see if I have achieved anything.
