Joshua Graham-Tough Love

- Hey you guys, hope life is treating you well. As I said before in a post life is beyond a little hectic at the moment. Due to certain circumstances I have to move across the country, so my plan of putting out my bigger projects have been slowed to say the least. I figured in the meantime I would put out a video script I've been picking at for some time. I have a lot planned for the channel and for life. I want to thank all of you who watch and support the channel. I truly do appreciate it.
In a world filled with misery and uncertainty, It is a great comfort to know that, In the end, There is light in the darkness. Thank you for posting
Yes.
I would like a vid on how to remain faithful with religion in these modern days of endless knowledge and large public sentiments against the values of religion.
Damn.... That hit hard
@@DariusFlynt_2012 If you're questioning your faith, then it is no longer your faith. Once you begin asking questions/forming a line of thought like that one there, Faith (in our traditional sense) starts falling apart. I get it, and I understand. I once struggled to keep my faith under the duress of my later teen years, and I felt rather lost for awhile there.
That said, my faith is no longer of a traditional cloth. I sewed my own. I have faith in myself, my family, and all of humanity. And that is enough, for now.

Bro could not only be a philosopher but an excellent politician
I agree, he’d probably need so much security though that it would be the fbi to shame. But I agree all the same.
Untrue

@@BoredAmericanI would like to know your reasoning in saying no.
You’re a good person. It would be impossible to be argued against. Thank you for having the strength to write these and send them into a world that cancels people for less. Your work is not only important, it’s necessary in this day and age.
Are you insane? "necessary" does that word completely devoid of meaning to you?
@@dancronin5691 the message of the video is verry much nessesary and more people need to hear it our culture is literally tearing itself apart because people haven't had the balls to tell eachother this shit
Lol, the words has a good resemblance of "you're a good neighbor" by Joshua Graham 😁
@@dancronin5691 Yes. It is necessary.
@@Zeep_goblin Necessary to you and people who need to hear advice from a video game character, but not necessary in terms of real assistance or where it ranks when it comes to needs. Agree on that?
I absolutely love your Joshua Graham videos, they're so inspiring, with the calm, collective voice of the character!
I Love How instead of make a joke vídeo using the Voice of a Character they make a good vídeo with ideas more usefull than 80% of the "self improvement" content
Zesty fire is crazy
@@humb1_e100?
So glad to hear from you. You’re the only writer I can vision with His voice. Thanks for the update and video.
Man this reminds me of a quote from Bleach. "Those who do not fear the sword they wield, should not wield a sword at all"
Thanks, that helps a lot to meditate on where I am in life right now. Keep on doing the good work.
I won't lie I am one of these weak men you mention. I listen to these when I can in the small hope that something lights in me to pull myself out of this dark pit I have put myself in. Your videos are excellent and I wish you all th best brother. God bless you and all those you touch with these videos
If you can't pull yourself out of the pit, find ways to force yourself out of it. I'm currently exercising, eating three square meals a day, and going to my dentist consistently so I can join the USAF. And while these things aren't easy, I can definitely say I feel better than before (by miles).
That said, I still have a lot of flaws brought on by years of abuse and poor decision-making. I was my own worst enemy, and to say I had no enemies was murdering my drive to find an opponent/goal. If there was no one to blame, or to hold accountable, then it would've been well and truly my fault. And as harsh as it sounds, it was all my fault. I could've run far and wide, made a better life for myself instead of wallowing in despair for two years, pretending I wasn't being my own villain.
I hope Air Force BMT will fix some of my perceived issues.
Just remember that it doesn't matter how weak you are, you have the power to defeat that weakness.
thats good actually, you are know that you're in weak state and not in denial. I hope you gets better. God bless y'all
A weak man does not have the strength or wisdom to recognize or acknowledge his weaknesses.
I wish we lived in world where "I have no enemies" applied. It's supposed to be a lesson that everyone has their own justification and it's never personal. That there is no reason for us to hate anyone mo matter what they do to us. Unfortunately, that's not the case.
I though I would never listen to anyone talking about how the “I don’t have enemies” quote was hollow, banal, weak. Thank you.
This was eye-opening. I recently shared that exact quote you mentioned on Facebook thinking I was being profound, but after this video I have a different perspective. I'm realizing I identified with it because saying you have no enemies is an easy way to escape the responsibility of fighting for the future you want. In truth I have many enemies, and most of them are parts of myself. Thank you for sharing this.
Well put my friend I’m glad you’ve come around to reality , it’s not easy at first but long term you will suffer less.
It’s really eye opening that someone can articulate what we all know deep down. Glad I found this channel and thank you brother🙏
Shit man you nailed it again. The whole part about "I have no enemies" is not only so on point, but also so in character for Joshua Graham.
He was forced in fire and despite being so faithful, know that if you have no enemies - you'll be killed be "friends"
It’s a relief to know that at least one other person on this planet views humanity this way.
We are many, we are the followers of Christ if we hear these messages. I asked Lord for wisdom and knowledge
Russia, 2 AM. I really do relate to the group of people, who mistake weakness for virtue. This video made me question myself. Or at least I see it that way
Thank you
weakness is not virtue, but I pray you don’t fight a war God wouldn’t want you to brother.
idk why you fell out of my algorithem but im glad i went looking for you. i hope you never give up on this type of content because it helps people like me every day. i take these words as tools, and use them to better the lives of mine and my own. youre a brilliant individual, and you dont sugar coat the world we have inhereted from our fathers, and we have much work to do not only for ourselves but for our sons and daughters. if you ever extend your word beyond youtube such as a podcast, a book, anything i would absolutely love to support and be a part of building your word because i know how much it has helped me, many young people need a helping hand in these times.
I don't like to flex or anything, but I am 15, and I take care of my mother and my brother while doing my studies and learning for this kind of video I always think that I am too young for this sometime. But I appreciate watching this kind of video because it put me further for the other children around my age .
Very happy to hear this in this world, my friend...
Never stop learning and honing your ideals and moral character. Bear your own principals, and polish them like a blade to be wielded against fear, hate, and despair. Well done so far. Keep it pushing my fellow, you will be the best of us if you never give up.
keep it up warrior
Joshua Graham would be hailed as a hero and would be hated at the exact same time
Superb. I appreciate the nuance in this video. As our country (and the world) struggles between change and tradition, it’s important to remember that we must keep our eyes to the sky, but also have our feet rooted in the ground. No easy days. Peace ✌🏾
I am actually entranced by this monologue, thank you for this, and keep doing what you're doing cus these words actually got me thinking deep.
I had been searching for the right ai gimmick to quickStart a TH-cam channel. How foolish of me. I should’ve been focusing on my short stories and novel, honing my craft rather than use these new fangled tools I barely understand. Thank you for the video, I hope you produce more and that this one helps more just like me.
I think there’s a balance. There are times to be competitive and there are times to be companionate. The message of this video came out as very black and white advice when we live in a world that is grey.
I think there is strength in showing mercy. In turning the other cheek. Same as there is strength in dominating and being tenacious.
I guess all I’m saying is there is validity things you might not agree with, like the “I have no enemies” phrase
Agreed. This world is very nuanced. Having a black and white mindset could only get you so far in certain situations. Being more adaptive to an ever changing world and holding ideals of strength yet with compassion can go a long way. I understand what this video was trying to say overall but it does come off as being a bit too rigid. It also misses some points at certain ideals that people have. We should acknowledge the reality of this world and be prepared. Yet, we should also not lose sight of the best and loving parts of our humanity. We all struggle, but we all should not lose sight of the best of what we can be.
You say this, yet when the bjj let the cop go he was shot. Don’t be delusional..
@@allen55578 no shit, it's a cruel world.
I dont usaually comment, but this is one of the best speeches I`ve ever heard. Alot of people need to hear this message
About the violence portion of the video-
I believe that being completely harmless is an awful thing, it means you are nothing but a pawn. I also believe that being Ruthless is an awful thing because it means you will be alone. I have tried to be both of these things and discovered first hand that neither of them work for both reasons. Like most things, moderation Is key- to be strong when it is called for and to do what needs to be done, but not to become a destroyer.
This is one of the chillest and most profound monologues I’ve ever heard, thank you sir .
Kindly ask you fine Sir, to keep sharing this gift to those who will listen, thank you for these steps of guidance to the light of self-knowledge. Blessings from Venezuela
This makes me realise how far i am from the message he preaches.
Please never stop makeing these. They breath life into hope for me
One of the greatest videos I've listened to in a looooooooong time. Absolutely outstanding
Thank you, Aogiri.
It is very comforting to see a new upload from you after 2 months.
As always, your teachings make my inner fire burn ever stronger.
I'm eager to see your bigger projects.
A video from you always seems to pop up when I need it, and with the words that I need. They realign and focus my mind, keep it in the goals of conquering my life.
I consider your work to be very important. It’s not only rare, but takes courage to write as you do. I’m sure I’m not the only one your attitude and way of thinking gives hope to. To take these things on, in whatever approach is right for the individual, is often a lonely struggle. Sincerely, thank you. We may never meet, but it’s consoling to know you and people like you are out there.
I’ve listened to nearly every single one of these now and I’d just like to thank you for spreading a much needed message in todays world. Since while much of what you’ve said was taught to me at a young age others do not remain so lucky.
This turned my outlook of today arpund. Im gonna go workout, and clean my car. Maybe ill have a new job next week. Needed this. Thank you
I've been thinking of something to say about your channel, and I can only say thank you. You've showed me things I never even thought about before. And plus, listening to Joshua is always a plus
I can't express enough how important and impactful your writing is.
Recently been going thru Love spells with someone I see a long future with. This feels like a sign from the Lord to keep pressing on. Thank you for this.
You sir, are a true 1 in 1 million that is truly a hidden treasure. Your words have truth that I respect, and I hope more people will take your words by heart, God bless you brother.
Good to know someone is preaching what I see as well. Thank you.
Your videos make my gut wrench and I love it. It means I know it's true and I need to hear it. Thank you.
This is so true. Thank you for this reminder.
Been a while since I've gone and looked for your videos again. Something just hits deep down when I listened to you videos once more.
In anything, one must always have a tough love to deal with the world. One must always deal with searching for their purpose, and keep growing toward it.
As I see the truth, hear it from this video, and a quote that fits.
"No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it." - Hebrews 12:11
Tell me you haven’t seen Vinland Saga without telling me you haven’t seen Vinland Saga
watching your videos has let me see the light of God again. Thank you.
I’m thankful to have found this gem of a channel. You are correct about the copycats, I would be thankful for them as it is a sign of your ability to create great content. Even these fake voices, who merely read the same stoic quotes, cookie cutter content. This is humanity, some cannot create. Some will fall for them, I think we need not worry for them, as the ones who can identify true genuine messages, teachings, and stories are the ones that will always flourish. Thank you again.
I say amen to that Joshua.
Glad you're back :) Great video bro, always love the insight and writing you do on this channel. Great job!! 🙏👏
Another great piece
I missed you Joshua. Thanks for coming back and being my study buddy 🍻
This is just what I’ve been needing to hear, amazing video. This guy has some true wisdom.
Keep going brother ! We need more of this !
It's true that family is being built by going through tough times, I had that wake up call when I realized that tolerating the wrong things was just avoiding conflict. And when I tried to resolve these conflicts they were interpreted as an insult or misunderstanding.
I also realized that after a certain point you can't "fix" someone, having that messiah complex only caused me pointless worry and guilt. So if someone doesn't want to change then stop tolerating it and let them go or criticize with good intentions.
Sadly tolerance gets confused with acceptance so easily these days, its a shame I had to learn this by myself in those last few years in my 20's. I had to learn many things like these because I lacked that genuine tough love in my life.
If only for a moment. I have been brought out of a very dark place. Thank you so much for your time and effort.
brother..you dont know how much i need to hear these videos, i want you to flourish and kept strong and safe for thanks for telling me what i need to hear, not what i want
Be humble. When you work on yourself, keep it secret… don’t boast about your achievements. Bring it up in conversation but keep it brief. When you workout don’t post pictures. When people see the outcome be humble. You will more respected in the long run when you are humble.
Thank you for posting these things man you are always spot on
Thank you, genuinely, for giving me and so many others such advice.
I nneeded to hear this. Thank you kindly. May the God of your faith guide you all.
Many people need these messages, thank you
Thanks for sharing this. Its helping look at things better not expecting unreasonable things. Again thank you.
I love the stuff you do, I agree with all of it. Kick ass.
19:23 I agreed up to this point, I don't agree that lacking claws makes you a weak man. Not owning a gun doesn't make you weak, its the inability to pull the trigger when its needed.
Truly In awe!!!
I always come back to these videos to think improve or just to listen to and they are great and I love your writing man keep it up.
Definitely one of the most psychologically profound videos I've ever seen, thanks man!
Thank you for this wisdom.
You my friend is one of the greatest speakers I have ever heard, great video. 👏
Please continue making these videos. You’re doing good for the world.
Thank you for your wisdoms.
I got a friend who loves things like this. Especially since it’s narrated by arguably one of our most favorite characters period.
This is amazing. Thank you.
bro ur vids cured my depression
The thing that gets me in all of these, is the encouragement. I won’t lie, I have been weak. I am weak as of writing this, yet I still have garnered respect and virtue of some people. I am forever blessed to have them. I have tried, but haven’t tried nowhere hard enough. I am glad that you make these. I am glad that you are encouraging and inspiring people to go out and improve their life, mind, spirit, finances and body. Thank you for growing, so you can teach us to grow in a time where most will stop as a sprout. Thank you.
Honestly I needed this so thank you
As a traumatized 32 year old man child, this hurt a lot. Thanks. I needed it.
Actually love this so much!! YOURE AMAZING good job!!
Powerful truth, incredible.
Thank you so much for this. In these dark times of brain rot "content" and total infantilization in people, it is truly refreshing to head some sober honest truth. I feel inspired and assured that I am on the right path. Hello from eastern Europe
Finally! We've missed you
Amazingly well said and spoken and this shows a very clear insight if the reality we all face these days and only time will tell
Sweet, he's back!
Thank you for keeping on keeping on.
I'm glad I stumbled on these videos. I gotta say, it's helping me turn my life around. I used to be a hardcore otaku and borderline degenerate and after listening to these videos and discovering other Joshua Graham contents, I've took a very large step back to reflect in my life... and I'm glad I did. I really needed it. Thank you and God bless 🙏
Start turning your life around by changing that profile picture.
@@DariusFlynt_2012 I will once I get off work 👍
This is incredible, I had a bad day, and this lightened up my mood. Thank you!
This is more of a wake-up call for me. I had to listen to this three times, and the more I did, the more the words made sense.
Thank you.❤
I really like the videos you put out, they reinforce the hope that there are wise men left in this world. I’ve always felt that I’m a glitch in my generation( Gen Z) I’m almost the opposite of what people are today. But I know that I am still human, and I’ll strive to do my best to survive the current situation but spread my goodwill to others, like what you’re doing right now.

I needed this. Thank you
You're an inspiration, Aogiri.
Your words are truth brother
glad to see you back and just as based as ever
Thank you for this.
Damn i forgot about these. Thanks for uploading
Finally more Joshua graham content😮💨🤌🏻
Thank you for your work
This is fantastic!! Edit: I’ve sent this to my family. Some of them are angry.
Very enjoyable video. Thank you for all the effort.
You just gave the best advice for new parents.....
Thank you, this really does mean something
My favorite person to listen to. You say you do not have answers, but frankly I disagree. Maybe Im coping with not knowing, but I think you have almost all the answers im looking for.
You know what you make too much sense and I can't even fight against
people try to make the world a soft place which made me soft what you said right now it sounds
like facts
thank you
