"Never tolerate disrespect, not even from yourself". That did it for me. Because, I don't condone disrespect. Not from ANYONE.
What did it for me was "learn how to change a flat tire on your vehicle".
I did not know how to change a flat tire on my vehicle.
I'm the exact opposite. I do not feel disrespect. I tolerate it endlessly.
Self respect is good self love is bad
Nip that shit in the bud in milliseconds

"LIFE IS LIKE A BOOK, SOME CHAPTERS ARE SAD, SOME ARE HAPPY, BUT ALL ARE NECESSARY FOR THE FULL STORY." , Grandpa was an intelligent man
Story you can chew back and learn
the 'grandpa' probably didn't exist. I could bet that these quotes are generated by AI and copy pasted to the video
Who's Grandpa?
And women are like Ice cream you need to sample all the flavors.
If you have to choose between being kind and being right, Choose to be kind, and you will always be RIGHT😊
I don’t know who said it, but “life begins at the end of your comfort zone” had a profound affect on me. I am an old man, but took up flying and recently flew my little plane to the Bahamas from the mountains of NC.
Very satisfying.
I love this, thank you 🙏💗
Gold
Congratulations 💪
😊
What do you call " OLD "..
I am 84 and still as fit as a Buck Rat.. And Twice as dangerous...
A quote someone once said in the comments that's actually good "fools will not learn - even from the wise ,while the wise is willing to learn from everyone even from the fool's"
Perfect. I'm 82 and learn from everyone, almost every day. Some positive, and some negative. With age, you will learn the difference.
Perfect! Glad you shared.
@@summerstanford4078 your welcome

The pain you feel will be the strength of tomorrow
Yes the calmer you are the clearer you think !!
"The greatest gift a grandfather can give his grandchildren is the wisdom that comes with age and the love that knows no bounds."
My grandfather pulled me aside at 12 years old and set me straight. He owned a drilling company and had a geologist buddy that worked for Sinclair Oil Company, the one that had the green dinosaur on it. After the things he told me, I never believed the government again. De Beers creates scarcity much the same way to artificially inflate the value of their diamonds. My Grandpa probably saved my life.💪

What if your grandfather is an idiot ? what do you do with the "advice" then ? Not all grandfathers are "wise". A grandfather is just an old person really - so if he was already an idiot in his 30s 40s 50s ... he will likely still be an idiot in his 70's 80s 90s. Wisdom doesn't magically manifest into idiots who were born that way. It takes thought, reflection, some education, critical thinking, a passion for truth - these are traits that most people don't possess anyway - they are reserved for the select few - therefore most people will become idiot grandfathers, by definition
@@frankcarson358 Most have retained some wisdom throughout the years especially if they had other strong masculine men in their life. Sorry that passed you by.
@@frankcarson358 You can still learn from idiots, if only how not to be one.
"Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see".
Kindness is the universal language that is comprehended beyond the boundaries.
"The most valuable currency is not money but time ". Definitely true, time and knowing what to do with it.
It's time tested
With time, you can make the money you want. The greatest wish of a dying man is more time.
"Squander not time.
For time is the substance life is made of".
I massively second that quote!
Money and time is nothing compared to the present, what happens right now. We might not have much time left, who knows? So the present is always more important then anything else in the world. People always take it for granted
"The true test of a man's character is what he does when no one is watching him." i like it 👍
True in today's world with fakes all around
The true test of a man's character is what he does when no one is watching him
“You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”
― Marcus Aurelius
Shoutout to the grandpa for giving exactly 80 advices, wouldnt be as cool if it was 79, truly a man of intelligence.
There was no grandpa, that was a fabrication. I have a truth radar.
WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK OF YOU IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS....how powerful was that!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Born in 1953 in my grandfather in 1895. I love him dearly. He was responsible for my learning about the sea and sailing. And every summer I spent at his Cottage on the Chesapeake Bay. It Made the school year in Ohio livable, with the promise of swimming in the sea and walking on the beach and Rowing my boat thank you grandfather
Hey that's what grandfathers are for
You never knew how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
Life is like a book, some chapters are sad, some are happy, but all are necessary for the full story.
Learn how to change a flat tyre on your vehicle.
If you don't value your time, neither will others.
The strongest people are not those who show strength in front of us, but those who fight battles we know nothing about.
The pain you feel today will be the strength you feel tomorrow.
Turn your wounds into wisdom.
When writing the story of your life, don't let anyone else hold the pen.
Don't put off important medical check ups.
Practice self-compassion, we are all human, everyone makes mistakes.
Time heals almost everything, give it time.
A good laugh and a long sleep are the two best cures for anything.
Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn.
Forgiveness is not for the other person, it's for your peace of mind.
Sometimes we're tested not to show our weaknesses, but to discover our strengths.
The calmer you are, the clearer you think.
Learn to cook a few basic dishes, it's a valuable life skill.
Patience is power.
Sometimes you have to let go of something good to make room for something better.
Never tolerate disrespect, not even from yourself.
Listen more than you speak, for wisdom often comes from silence.
Create and stick to a personal budget.
What other people think of you is none of your business.
Kindness is a language that the deaf can hear, and the blind can see.
Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but gets you nowhere.
You can't start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one.
The best view comes after the hardest climb.
Courage doesn't always roar, sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day saying "I will try again tomorrow".
Never lose your sense of humor, laughter is the best medicine for the soul.
You'll never find a rainbow if you're looking down.
Always payoff your credit card debt, it will save you trouble later.
The best revenge is massive success.
The more you give, the more you receive, the heart that shares is the heart that's full.
Tough times don't last, but tough people do.
The most valuable currency is not money, but time, spend it wisely.
A ship is safe in harbour, but that's not what ships are for.
The way you treat others reflects who you are, not who they are.
It's not about having what you want, but wanting what you have.
Don't wait for the perfect moment, take it and make it perfect.
Believe in yourself, and the rest will fall into place.
Don't be afraid to take risk and try new things. Life's too short to always play it safe.
Always take responsibility for your actions. For it is the mark of a mature individual.
Take a deep breath, it's just a bad day, not a bad life.
Don't say "Someday" say "Now", for someday may never come.
Donate to charity, small acts change lives.
A person who doesn't make mistakes, doesn't make anything at all.
You cannot change the direction of the wind, but you can adjust your sails to reach your destination.
The only constant in life is change, embrace it, and you'll grow.
Say "Please" and "Thank you" often.
You can't change the past but can shape your future by learning from it.
The heaviest burden we carry is the weight of our expectations.
It's better to be alone than in bad company.
When you stop chasing the wrong things, the right ones catch up.
There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.
You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.
The best way to gain self-confidence is to do what you are afraid to do.
A river cuts through rock not because of its power, but because of its persistence.
There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs.
The greatest risk is not taking one.
Happiness is not something you postpone for the future, it is something you design for the present.
Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change.
You are confined only by the walls you build yourself.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
Focus on what you can control, and let go of what you cannot.
Take time to enjoy life's simple pleasures, it's in these moments that we often find the most joy.
Give without anything expecting anything in return.
The only time you should ever look back is to see how far you've come.
You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind.
Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will.
In the face of adversity, remember that diamonds are made under pressure.
If you get tired, learn to rest, not to quit.
Do not let the shadows of your past darken the doorstep of your future.
Do not postpone joy for the sake of the future, the morrow is promised to no one.
The first step to getting anywhere is deciding you're not willing to stay where you are.
Stop wasting time on women...don't chase women. Instead, focus on your growth, values, and cultivating kindness. The right person will find their way to you at the perfect moment, without the need for chasing.
Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye.
The true test of a man's character is what he does when no one is watching.
You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
Spend time with the elderly, their wisdom and experiences are invaluable.
One day or day one, you decide.
I never knew none of my Grandfathers make me feel so sad. Thanks very much for this wisdom . I will pass this on to my Grandchildren.
Same here, they all died in WW2
@@robertjohnston8690 😞
I was raised by my maternal grandmother, uff endless lisening to life lessons, and do's and don't...which I was gratefull for her teachings I have to say that now I follow my own do's and don't in my own life...and in regards to grampa's I never meet him they where separated by the time I came along....❤
Good advice. My grandfather's only advice for me is to study hard. I hated him for that but I am thankful now for him for putting pressure on me to study, study, & study. My grandchildren are scared of me because I want them to be very good in mathematics so I teach them maths whenever they visit me. My wife doesn't like me for teaching them maths daily. My grandchildren has started calling me Mr. Maths. One-day they will appreciate me for teaching them mathematics the old way. Only practice makes perfection in every endeavors. Only way to succeed in life is a good education and to be good in mathematics.
The mathematics of love is more important than the mathematics of numbers. Give your grandchildren your grandfatherly love, not additional school lessons. This will create their resistance and not the best memories. You want the best for them but good memories of their grandparents have a special value.
*"When writing the story of your life, never let someone else hold the pen."* ✍️

Wow! I am impressed with Grandpa’s profound Wisdom. This was almost like reading the Book of Proverbs.
I will incorporate many of these Wise Sayings into my Life. And I will definitely share these Sayings with others. I am Glad I Clicked on this Channel today.,
I'm really inspired 😢
Sounds like Grand Pa had a lot of wisdom behind his belt. 80 years of wisdom for his grandson is an awesome gift for living life...
Wise words from the wise lecturer, my grandpa said.
I am a 67 year old disabled veteran. I recall standing my ground, not backing down, feeling the rush of change. I never gave up my self respect and my Honor is intact. I win. Remember, you have to live and sleep with yourself for the rest of your life. I was always aware of that when young. I always looked ahead to how my past would evolve. I didn't want shame and regret. I was lucky enough to be conscious of the future - now that the past is what my life is made of.
Sir yes sir
Thank you Ronald, for the price you paid for my freedom. Let the past go. Let Jesus heal your heart. He paid an even higher price for all of us. His life for ours. Trust him to take it all for you. Let him do a complete work. He perfects all that concerns us. ❤🕊😊
@@kathryn4122 Thank you for that.
Well stated 🙏
Thank you for your service
It's so lovely when grandpa or grandma talk like this, can never forget later during life.
This is one of the best thing I've listened to since this year began. I'm stepping into the new year with a brand new perspective. Thank you Jesus
So much words of wisdom don't know where to start never lose your sense of humor, what people think of you is none of your business, the calmer you are the clearer you think, forgiveness is not for the other person for your peace of mind , best revenge is massive success and last but not least is never tolerate disrespect not even from your self so real respect for this channel 🙏
Read the wisdom in the KJB and there are four Wisdom books in word of God --"If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." - James 1:5 ) This is one of the Bible verses about wisdom and guidance that remind us of the importance of asking God to show us His views, His perspective and His standards.
Good advice for anybody well said
You were very fortunate to have this grandfather. Rare.
Sure he does. I grow up knowing both grandparents are gone!! Am Bob and you ?
Cursed,unfortunate
Unlucky
Life is like a book, some chapters are sad, some are happy, but all are necessary for the full story ❤
THis 👍👏👏👏👏
True
Life is like a book, some chapters are sad, some are happy, but all are necessary for the full story.
Topthanks
I can't thank your grandfather enough for leaving such a valuable lessons. And thank you for sharing with us. He must be a very wise man. Most of the quotes had sept if an ocean. Unfortunately my grandfather did not leave such wisdom for us. But I should for my grandchildren some day just like your grandfather did. Thank you and I thank him too. RIP wise grandfather.
😂😂
Never pass something that needs to be done or someone in need of help. It took me a very long time to understand those words from my Grandfather. It's the foundation of any community.
10:49 A very wise man. More men need to take this advice.
I'm still waiting and waiting and waiting........
Exactly! Thank you!
@@themanftheworld8439 35 yrs for me lol still waiting
Two things my mom told me that I live by, the first is the most important. You are completely responsible for your own life even though you don't always have complete control. Second, you always bring the party with you; if you're bored that's a personal problem. Then there is my wife's favorite world view, love is an action not a feeling.
Better to say it is duty !
Mother Nature is calling to maintain continuation of a kind .
We like every animals are doing it.
Performing duty !
Amen 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

@@RobertChampeau Of course, you would know...
Never tolerate disrespect from anyone not even from yourself. This one hit my marrows.
Grandpa is teaching you people some good lessons. Keep learning children
Thanks to you and to your awesome grand Pa for his LIFE pep talk and carefully chosen words.
As I’m contemplating retirement. This one did it for me:
“DO NOT POSTPONE JOY FOR THE SAKE OF THE FUTURE, THE MORROW IS PROMISED TO NO ONE”
This wasn't said or written by one man.
But these advices are precious.
Altough I agree with almost every quote I've learned this as well. " to almost every of these quotes there is an exception to the rule".. Every truth is a half truth
true words... espacially listen the elderlies can lead destructive behavior of environment, people around you and your own.
I'm 83. I never had the pleasure of knowing my Grandparents on either side. I only know that I have missed them my entire life.
Me too!! I never had time with my grandparents neither did I saw both grandparents!! Well am Bob from Denver Colorado, am 75 and you?
Time is more valuable than money❤️
Great
Time heals almost everything, give it time ❤😂🎉 grandpa we're so grateful😊
The pain you feel today turn out to be your strength tomorrow
Most men realize this when they are very old😢 Thank God realized before I'm forty I can try to recover
“ Sometimes you have to let go of something
to make room for something better .”
🌷I want to remember this
Lavita Easy
*I totally agree with you no doubt with that*
Wherever you go, there you are.
Give thanks for the words of wisdom thanks u Lord 🙏.
Never tolerate disrespect not even from yourself.
But tolerance keep you away from Controversy.
My advise to ignore those who do not knowhow to respect others
Thanks,
Don't be afraid to take risks and try news things. Life's too short always play it safe.
The heaviest burden we carry is the weight of our expectations. 😔 but true.
Tremendously insightful for an old man (I'm 78) and have made many of the mistakes I have learned from your lessons. My Affirmation each morning helps my day enormously. "I AM; a kind, considerate, caring, responsible, and Loving person." And the plaque on my computer table has changed my life in dramatic ways. i.e., "Have a Great Day - UNLESS you have made other plans." I never forget I have a choice! PS your e-book page does NOT work. Cannot buy the book. Help!
How inspiring these lessons are! Even for someone as old as I. ❣
These and Zillions more were also said to me my entire Life. It is SO good to hear them Again. Thank You.
IMPRESSED! I will play it on and on.THANK YOU❤
You can't blame anybody for anything but yourself because you should have been on point or been aware of the situation in the first place it's nobody's fault but your own
Don't blame anyone else for the road you're on. That's your own asphalt.
Life will be hard if you are a bad person but life will be harder if you are a good person
That is kind of bad sounding bad either way. Sucks. I know learned that people hate despise with great passion, nice funny silly joking Goofy people like I mean people never understand me I've learned they think just I'm others are mentally ill crazy Not true they hate positive people period will never understand you no matter in a lifetime. Bullys are always the same, they never will grow up forget that crap people don't change for most part. Fudge them all.
This too shall pass,
Take it easy
When happiness did not stop,
So what is the status of sorrow!!
True ❤
@Nero The Chosen thank you brother
@Nero The Chosen
No matter what the pain is, don't wet your eyes.
Do not grieve even if the night is dark,
Be a star and keep shining
Always keep smiling in life!!
This is inspiring
The wise should learn it's a great message and very deep
God bless your grandfather
Experience is the best teacher 😊😊 thank you grandfather, merci beaucoup..
Great advice,hope many read it for guidance, some of these gems of wisdom have taken me 76 years to learn, but you can always improve your lot in life!!!
Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn. I really like that one

never tolerate disrespect. !.....Yes, Then Respect will follow u. A great grandfather. You are lucky enough.
Wow!!!
Amen ❤️
I loved my grandfather ❤
Thank you for the daily dose of motivation and inspiration.❤
I learned a lot from these quotes from my mistakes and other people’s mistakes.
Usually I don’t understand quotes but these are clear as glass to me. Thank you for the advice.

There is something more valuable than Gold and worth more than the finest of material possesions, and that is Peace of Mind....
Nicely said, just saying ... Hello❤

I have never heard more wisdom in 12 minutes. ❤
Thank you, from a 75 year old that is always open to new information, we never stop learning 😇☺
Maravilloso trabajo, priceless, thanks so much, I had too an amazing grandfhather, cada uno de nosotros debería comenzar la vida o la propia carrera, recordando y respetando la enseñanza de nuestros abuelos...!!!! I will get the e-book...!!! Grazie mille...!!!
That's really some great words of wisdom!!! Teach me more!
Wise words to live by indeed 👏
"Do as I say, not as I do" is the one I remember the most

This Grandfather deserves a raise.
He's dead bozo

I needed EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THOSE!
True friends will cry when you leave both fake friends will leave when you cry. Awell advice heard.❤
Grand father's are the best. I tried to model myself after my maternal Grandfather. My family always say you're just like your Grandfather. May he continue to rest in peace.
Very Inspirational ❤ thank you! I really need this now!
I am 100% aligned with this ❤
Couldn’t disagree to any of them
Sometimes you have to let something good go to create room for something better ❤❤
Very nice to have especially when my grandfather passed didn't leave anything like this , I will use it as if he did, but the credit goes to shRed this your grandfather and you.
Thanks greatly.
I can share these with my sons.. and foster sons.
You rock.
Greatest lesson I ever heard from I was a kid
Thanks for sharing this valuable lesson, I really appreciate every bit of it ! Wish I had this knowledge when I was growing up. 🙏👍
NEVER CHANGE A GOOD MIND.
Advice from my mother. now, sadly, long gone.
I always smile that so many people try to live according to someone's wisdom. Me too. Merry Christmas! 😀
