Literally I had a revelation about this no more than 3 hours ago and I ran across this video for confirmation. Lately I’ve been asking Yah to speak to me outside of myself to confirm that it’s Him speaking to me. He used this video to just that. HalleluYah and thank you for posting this. If you’re reading this. Be encouraged. Yah loves you and He wants to reason with you and show you His goodness. He is not hateful. He is not spiteful. He is forgiving, merciful, and gracious. Maybe this is the sign you needed to see and you’ve been in prayer. Amen and Amen. Shalom 🤲🏾
As a Christian man we need an extension of this video. How to regain desire or find what we actually desire in our heart. Would love your feedback on that.
For context i am almost 21, I was recently amputated above the knee on my right side (04/08/21) due to injuries I sustained in a high speed motorcycle accident (06/13/20). Prior I had a career in hard labor, and it’s all I’ve ever known; working hard, sweating, being dirty and muddy after a long day on a job site, earning every single cent of my pay and putting all of my rage and emotional pain into it and it rewarded me for that. I was just starting to become happy with myself, happy with my situation, my lifestyle. Now since I no longer have that outlet I have so much rage and anger, so much pain and sadness that I’ve buried away until a time when I feel as though I am mentally prepared for processing and accepting the entirety of the situation because right now everything that’s left of me is new, and I can’t look in the mirror at myself without breaking down and asking myself how much do I really want to continue living like this....I find myself aggravated and annoyed with everyone I interact with and it is out of my control. I no longer have a handle on my rage and aggression. I suffer from bouts of PTSD, night terrors, flashbacks, and crippling nerve pain at which the extent of it leaves me screaming in pain and unable to move, and I can do nothing to stop it. That which doesn’t make me scream I suffer through silently because I don’t want to worry or hurt my mother anymore than I already have (she is a 10 year RN and gave me the skin prep bath for my 11 hour emergency surgery, and to the core of my soul I resent her having to see her oldest son as he bled out internally and bathe him). I had my first true bit of happiness ripped from me by an old woman using a cell phone while driving, who was so wrapped up in her own vehicles damage that after she hit me she got out and began taking pictures of her vehicle. She never even apologized for pulling out in front of me and stopping... I hit her at 70mph+/-. All of this after being so depressed and angry with the world for almost the entirety of my teenage years. I struggle to desire anything, especially to live. My father and I haven’t been on the best of terms since I was 16, and he wasn’t around much during my preteens and early teenage years. I’ve had to figure everything out alone, from helping my mother raise my two younger brothers when she worked nights, to how to do an oil change on my own. And this, I can’t figure this out on my own and I don’t know what to do.... I’m so lost. Is there anything at all that you could suggest? I feel like All I have now is my mind and even then it turns against me and hurts me. I feel inadequate as a man for being physically incapable of providing, I feel inadequate as a son for not being able to do things for my mother, and I feel inadequate as a human being for being so angry and violent towards society... Thank you for your time.
Hey, hope you are doing a little better. I think he never saw your comment since the video is quite old. Even though your whole world has crashed, please do keep your head up and try little by little to take steps in the right direction. Judging by the way you write, im quite sure you know which way to go :)
Hey man, I know it's an old comment but I'd like to reply to this anyway. You had a hard past and it's admirable you got this far without completely losing yourself to bitterness, resentment, etc. I really respect that. I can only speak from my own experience. "True strength is letting go." I never really understood this quote until quite recently. I started letting go of myself and accept the negative emotions that I had built up in me instead of fighting it. It didn't make me feel less depressed, but it made me calmer and peaceful at a deeper level. Dare I say there was a beautiful side to my depression and anxiety that I never got in touch with. I'm not going to lie when I say I can understand how you feel, but I can empathize when you say "I'm so lost". That's the exact words I felt. They say "Being lost is how you find yourself". I'm still lost, but I'm discovering parts of myself that I never knew existed, never would have dreamed of. It's truly a hidden blessing. I'm positive you can overcome your past and live the way you wish. Simply writing your past was an impressive step forward I think. Good luck.
hello brother, you have been through a lot. all that I read in your comments just somehow makes me feel ashamed to say I have depression too. I have never lost a limb but I lost my father to covid on January 2021, it felt like losing a part of my heart and soul. you are a really strong individual for what I can make out of what you shared. even though when in serious pain, you stay silent so you do not cause any more concerns. I live with my step dad and mom. My step dad is a old retired army/eye doctor, very old fashioned man, who almost can't move on its own, so my mom is basically his nurse and I try so hard to not give her anymore concerns but too often my mind becomes shit and I become useless. It's gotten better with time as I understand better now that the best way I can help her is helping myself feel better. And that's easier said that done, but deep inside, we all know what are the things we do that unable us to be our higher selves most of the time. Anyways, it is not my intention to make this about me, I just wanted to let you know I understand certain parts of your position and I can relate. I recently started therapy. I should've started a long time ago. We need to acknowledge needing to get help in order for help to come. Although you don't need to be a strong person, you are, because it is that obvious if you are able to be alive and write a comment about it on YT. You want to feel better or try to be at peace. And I believe you will get it. You don't have to identify or fill any roles my man, you are not anything but a "being" and we don't fit in any box although many of us create a "persona" to go through society. I'm VERY sorry for all that has happened to you, but it is your life and your experience. And life has found you worthy of going through this, because we are not given in life any situation that we are not able to handle, or at least surrender to. But, I play music and I can only imagine not being able to, it is very difficult. However, it is obvious you are very strong, and although this situation is really taking a toll on you, push through it. There is much in your mind and soul to discover. You might even end up surprising yourself and having fun. But first, we need to face our inner demons to the face and make peace with them, and let them know you want pain no more. Please stay with us and even though your situation is really challenging, you might provide strength and motivation to others just by being and that will come back to you in the form of positive energy. I wish you the best, much healing and recovery and a very fun life full of music, love and smiles. btw, at some point late 80´s Jason Becker was meant to be the world's best guitar player and suddenly he discovered he had Amyothropic Lateral Sclerosis and ended up losing all his mobility. But, that didn't stop him from living his life, getting married, recording albums and inspiring others. Look it up if you'd like, there should be a couple of documentaries of him in YT. Here's a song he actually wrote with his eyes: czcams.com/video/6IvPpLtr89g/video.html much love brother, you are warrior, push through and remember you don't HAVE to be anyone. You already are Being.
I hope you are doing better now. I cannot comprehend what you are going through but I can sympathize and aknowledge your struggle. I suggest you check out Jocko podcast. There you can learn from the story of some bad ass dudes that were seriously injured in war. Ryan Job and Kyle Carpenter come to mind. Travis Mills also has a great story. I hope this sparks some positive change for you. Wish you all the best and God bless.
“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” Romans 12:2 ESV Spot on brother
@@georgeprecious1036 Old stereotypes that justified the female exclusion from professions have largely been eradicated and censored and yet male caricatures are celebrated. Its largely because they exclude men from the home. It is easier to chastise the male "power structure" whilst little is said of the "female domain." This consists of female access to "parenting" and control of "(domestic) decisions" as a means to wholeness and fulfilment. Women claim they want access to male space but remain dedicated to their tacit agreement and strategic silence in isolating men from this sacred territory. Key to pushing men out of the home is DV. Domestic violence is initiated against men whilst sleeping, inattentive or at the mercy of the weapon, yet these explanations still fail to recognise a larger issue of framing. Even if there is no monopoly on abuse, domestic violence only empahsises the male physical tools whilst diverting from the psychological tools of women. Men may get the shorter end of the stick but still they are told to suck it up and keep quiet because they are violent and aggressive. Sadly these concepts of violence fail to account for power as explored by Bertrand Russell and Thomas Wartenberg. We fail to see women. Even if we accept the idea men are physically aggressive this still disguises the fact men are encouraged and expected to exprrss rage, fury and anger. Anger however is a secondary emotion whilst the primary ones are thise self respecting men cannot express: sadness, insecurity, isolation, shame, hurt. Men are more comfortable lashing out then communicating clearly. Anything other is branded as "sissy", "wimpish" "cowardly" or "unmanly." All of these are the equivalent of being a "rapist" "predator" or "paedophile", which, it is claimed men default to when they forfeit on their duties. Men are not just denied access to children but to expression and emotional selves. On Being A Man is possibly the richest literature exploring this dilemme but as was Money Issues. These must be our foundation texts. Jack Kammer for example retells a comic strip where a woman tells a man to go down to investigate a knock. He asks why "because I'm an accountant." Despite this "women think they are superior to men"; they gestate life but the union kf sperm and egg create whilst the womb far from a magical mythical place is a blood rich vessell. Apparently women create life and men kill spiders. Their straregies are complicated and sophisticated so we cant see and counter their strucutre which is forniddable amd impressive. They maintain it! Men do not have all the muscle. We have lots of the muscle but women have some too and we must both go downstairs in partnership because i am not disposable. We fail to deal with this because we are disregarded and rendered invisible. Unless we demonstrate we are insignificant so our being is equated with doing. We cease to exist in and of ourselves and are onky validated through conquest and acquisition. We are programmed to sacrifice and surrender to women and the kabour market. We must prove we are not sick and prove we are significant. We are wayched constantly to ensure to perifrm this duty whiks surveillance ensures this male machine functions correctly, meaning, accordingly.
I tell you the truth man, when u wake up in the ghetto everyday living in a broke down trailer, in debt working to jobs and still broke and a non helpful wife and family, when u live in that situation you don’t even wanna get out of bed in the morning. This is the results of my own sin and if God don’t help there won’t be any. God bless
I would love to purchase your book. I'm a 40 year old man with a newborn daughter, adult victim of abuse, addiction, jails institutions and even death ( as close as one can get and still have a heartbeat ). I have been clean and sober for 2 years and traded hustling drugs for a 9-5 and a family unit. I struggle with anger, negative self talk, and even the stuff your talking about with desire over discipline. I definitely have no desire to return to the life I left behind, as a matter of fact that is my biggest fear. If I'm lucky and continue my current path I'm confident that the Almighty will allow me to one day walk my daughter down the aisle on her wedding day, if I returned to the old man I'm not sure I'd make it to her 4th birthday. I see you and hear your words, it's helping feed my desire. I been watching your videos for a few days now, surgery has slowed me down enough to do a bit of reflection. If you read this I just want to personally thank you for what you are doing. I'm from DC area originally tho experience may different it's easy to realize we operate on the same emotional wavelength as Men. Guess I just need to understand myself better and be able to Be productive with my emotions and not cause more harm by expressing myself in negative ways.
Here I am, on a video made with men in mind but my heart and spirit needed to hear this TODAY! Thank you, this is my first time on ur channel and I am grateful for u allowing the Spirit of the Almighty God to speak thru u to edify His sons (and daughters ❤) I just sent this video to my husband, this is a right on time message for the both of us! Shalom and blessings from Detroit!
I'm choking back tears man..I weigh more than I ever have, 260lbs. A healthy weight for me is 200 or less. I've felt trapped in a dungeon for 2 decades. I feel like I've "desired" to change this up for years. I'll make progress then fall off the rhythm. I want so desperately to give my beautiful wife the gift that she's given me for 12 years (a beautiful body to enjoy) But where I struggle is the loving myself (self condemnation) and long-term consistency. This video is encouraging. Looking forward to watching more. Thanks so much, Bro.
@@aldololoco1412 Gwiz so theres this new catchphrase going around about "colourism' and of course its rebranded old news, but even so, lets press this using the case of lil kim. If we do we might conclude the victims of colourism indulge in the same victimhood politics as the LGBT brigade 💪🏻 Lil Kim for example "confessed" that she started bleaching because black men did not want her and openly expressed their preference for lighter skinned women. Leaving aside female sexual selection pressure and its inherent unquestioned entitlements, what is she really saying? 🤔 Keeping in mind that the highest power is that which can say "no" she is essentially saying she had less objects upon which to exert her power. She had a smaller pool of men to reject. She had less men to lead on, manipulate, insult, confuse, deceive and belittle. She ultimately willed to be in a better pisition to assume and practice her prerogative ; her female duty to degrade and deny men, and yet, it is woman who need protecting 🙈 If we cease femsplaining and turn to mansplaining we unearth a series of unique or additional insights, for example, the idea that colourism isnt racial but corporate. Men arent as bothered by "colourism" as its just another brand of the many ways in which we are called igly eveeyday. Women however take exception as it undermines their pretences to being gods. For a man to be able to say "no" to them means they cease being women; whilst he becomes one. We as a people have problems all across the board so why would women focus exclusively on this particular aspect of our sickness whilst ignoring and neglecting others. Its as if they treat our pathologies as they do men. If we do dissimilar and see it as an issue of branding we can suggest that the issue is with who gets to define worth, and what trend will be in vogue. Theyre upset that their dashion is out of style but want everyone to buy into their branding. But lets pretend this logic isnt true and presume this claim of colourism has some merit. Let's jump ahead to a future place where darker skinned women are celebrated and cherished, and call it nigtopia. In nigtopia our people still have no control over their education, housing, mass communication, employment, means of production, continent or global image, but the darker skinned women feel real good. Im curious; what problem will this solve? 😐 It brings me back to apartheid azania where the white elite classified the japanese - or was it the chinese - as honorary whites. Under no circumstances would it have made sense to bicker amongst themselves about their designations, unless they were in collusion with the existing antiblack power equation , which most these anti "colourism" claimants are. They arent seeking liberation, but containment. They want to be oppressed peacefully If these people were deeply upset ablut colourism it is unlikely they would be the same ones to mock african features such as complexion and hair and yet they're often the very ones referencing hair as picky, niggerish and nappy, whilst claiming mixed/diluted heritage as pretty or good hair. How can people claim to be against the source of their values and the system defining how they see the world? They arent; they want to refine the system not eradicate it because they remain invested and are the reason it perpetuates. Language, Neely Fuller and other long explained, structures how we see the world. It is as if what we see is ordered by what we think, which is determined by the tools used and programming our thinking. If however we fail to challenge concepts of "fairness" that essentially equate whiteness with purity and right, it is a battle lost prior to a pistol being fired. We cannot think like them and still profess/pretend to be against then. It doesnt make sense. +447939642873 Omalone11@gmail.com

Mr Jason Wilson, i have recently discovered your work on this platform, just wanted to thank you for inspiring people from all around the globe. - Eugene, Russia
Kyle, I'd like to encourage you. You have the power and what it takes to attain the rest you need, but you need other other men to help you claim it in a safe way. I've worked with hundreds of men in your type of situation and seen them liberated from the crap that holds them back in life. I'd recommend a weekend at The Crucible. Sign up at the www.thecrucibleproject.org Jason has been to the initial weekend of The Crucible and offers his thoughts on this in his book. He also lists it as a recommended resource for men who want to take control of their life and break free from their emotional incarceration. Peace.
Men are terrified of labels. These ideas are used to domesticate and direct them. Men are ruled by this process of discipline kept in place by secret systems of symbols, signals, moods and messages. Far from being tamed by men women train men. We do the dirty work. Through false virtues and slave morals men are tricked into acquiescence and duped into submission. They believe it to be right and honourable despite the pain and anguish it causes. Maybe Naomi Wolf should have wrote about this; the Myth of Male Power.
As a muslim thank you for the informative video, Allah bless your heart with joy and happiness. I am glad to see a man with strong mindset and teach good morality. Out of love please let me invite you to see what islam has to offer for many topics of common society's issues and prevent. thanks a lot brother.
Creating a workout routine, and designing eating habits, is about creating ritual in my life. I’m in week 3 of a new lifestyle change and I’m still getting over feeling stressed over not having the right food, or missing a workout because life got in the way, but I am starting to crave my routine, and the stability I feel around it. It feels good to wake up with a goal every day, some days I want to scream from exhaustion but on days I don’t have that structure, I feel lost.
I accidentally ran across your channel and WOW!! I really appreciate it when you stated "It's always the ROOT that comes before the FRUIT" everything starts with the DESIRE. Thank you brother, you are an amazing gift to this planet. In fact, let me retract my statement, running across you was NO ACCIDENT!
I've been searching and praying for a way to supplement teaching Christ-likeness through martial arts as opposed to teaching martial arts and Christianity. It is an answer to prayer and a blessing to discover the fruit of the vine that comes through Mr. Jason Wilson leading by example! I am looking to connect my senseis with this sort of curriculum so we can better embolden kids with the quality of teaching they deserve!! Just one thing, the verse that appears at 5:06 is actually from James 1:15. We are honored to view these lessons, thank you for choosing to share with us, sir!
I have been bullied as a kid and now I kinda feel I do that to myself. I desire that no more. Thank you Mr Wilson. God spoke to me through you. I really needed that and I need prayers. I wish I had a mentor like you! Many blessings.
Thank you very much, sir, this is such a good advice! I struggle with an addiction, and having the desire for the good as the main source of strength, to keep fighting, is key. This reminds me of saint Augustine, who said something similar when he had to struggle agains lust; at first, even though he wanted to achieve chastity, he couldn't because he didn't wish it. But after he saw the vanity of lust, and how much it was negative for his soul, when he started to truly wish to stop, then he succeded. The desire will give me motivation to continue, and then I'll work my discipline to fight against temptations!

btw, at some point late 80´s Jason Becker was meant to be the world's best guitar player and suddenly he discovered he had Amyothropic Lateral Sclerosis and ended up losing all his mobility.
But, that didn't stop him from living his life, getting married, recording albums and inspiring others.
Look it up if you'd like, there should be a couple of documentaries of him in YT.
Here's a song he actually wrote with his eyes:

much love brother, you are warrior, push through and remember you don't HAVE to be anyone.
You already are Being.
I hope you are doing better now. I cannot comprehend what you are going through but I can sympathize and aknowledge your struggle. I suggest you check out Jocko podcast. There you can learn from the story of some bad ass dudes that were seriously injured in war. Ryan Job and Kyle Carpenter come to mind. Travis Mills also has a great story. I hope this sparks some positive change for you. Wish you all the best and God bless.
Meditation will free you from your mind. Eckhart Tolle
“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
Romans 12:2 ESV
Spot on brother
I don't know this brother but I love how he communicates and you can feel his love from the screen. Bless you brother
I agree. There is no judgement in his tone, it is encouragement and love.
@@georgeprecious1036 Old stereotypes that justified the female exclusion from professions have largely been eradicated and censored and yet male caricatures are celebrated. Its largely because they exclude men from the home. It is easier to chastise the male "power structure" whilst little is said of the "female domain." This consists of female access to "parenting" and control of "(domestic) decisions" as a means to wholeness and fulfilment. Women claim they want access to male space but remain dedicated to their tacit agreement and strategic silence in isolating men from this sacred territory.
Key to pushing men out of the home is DV. Domestic violence is initiated against men whilst sleeping, inattentive or at the mercy of the weapon, yet these explanations still fail to recognise a larger issue of framing. Even if there is no monopoly on abuse, domestic violence only empahsises the male physical tools whilst diverting from the psychological tools of women. Men may get the shorter end of the stick but still they are told to suck it up and keep quiet because they are violent and aggressive. Sadly these concepts of violence fail to account for power as explored by Bertrand Russell and Thomas Wartenberg. We fail to see women.
Even if we accept the idea men are physically aggressive this still disguises the fact men are encouraged and expected to exprrss rage, fury and anger. Anger however is a secondary emotion whilst the primary ones are thise self respecting men cannot express: sadness, insecurity, isolation, shame, hurt. Men are more comfortable lashing out then communicating clearly. Anything other is branded as "sissy", "wimpish" "cowardly" or "unmanly." All of these are the equivalent of being a "rapist" "predator" or "paedophile", which, it is claimed men default to when they forfeit on their duties. Men are not just denied access to children but to expression and emotional selves.
On Being A Man is possibly the richest literature exploring this dilemme but as was Money Issues. These must be our foundation texts. Jack Kammer for example retells a comic strip where a woman tells a man to go down to investigate a knock. He asks why "because I'm an accountant." Despite this "women think they are superior to men"; they gestate life but the union kf sperm and egg create whilst the womb far from a magical mythical place is a blood rich vessell. Apparently women create life and men kill spiders. Their straregies are complicated and sophisticated so we cant see and counter their strucutre which is forniddable amd impressive. They maintain it!
Men do not have all the muscle. We have lots of the muscle but women have some too and we must both go downstairs in partnership because i am not disposable. We fail to deal with this because we are disregarded and rendered invisible. Unless we demonstrate we are insignificant so our being is equated with doing. We cease to exist in and of ourselves and are onky validated through conquest and acquisition. We are programmed to sacrifice and surrender to women and the kabour market. We must prove we are not sick and prove we are significant. We are wayched constantly to ensure to perifrm this duty whiks surveillance ensures this male machine functions correctly, meaning, accordingly.
@@captainmalone3217 you are completely right, we are now competitive just to be men and fathers. Because they want to own the family and us 🇺🇸
I tell you the truth man, when u wake up in the ghetto everyday living in a broke down trailer, in debt working to jobs and still broke and a non helpful wife and family, when u live in that situation you don’t even wanna get out of bed in the morning. This is the results of my own sin and if God don’t help there won’t be any. God bless

A lot of men feel this way!
Thank you Sir!, "the root comes before the fruit"🔥🔥🔥👌
I would love to purchase your book. I'm a 40 year old man with a newborn daughter, adult victim of abuse, addiction, jails institutions and even death ( as close as one can get and still have a heartbeat ). I have been clean and sober for 2 years and traded hustling drugs for a 9-5 and a family unit. I struggle with anger, negative self talk, and even the stuff your talking about with desire over discipline. I definitely have no desire to return to the life I left behind, as a matter of fact that is my biggest fear. If I'm lucky and continue my current path I'm confident that the Almighty will allow me to one day walk my daughter down the aisle on her wedding day, if I returned to the old man I'm not sure I'd make it to her 4th birthday. I see you and hear your words, it's helping feed my desire. I been watching your videos for a few days now, surgery has slowed me down enough to do a bit of reflection. If you read this I just want to personally thank you for what you are doing. I'm from DC area originally tho experience may different it's easy to realize we operate on the same emotional wavelength as Men. Guess I just need to understand myself better and be able to Be productive with my emotions and not cause more harm by expressing myself in negative ways.
"A man can do as he wills, but not will as he wills."
-Arhur Schopenhauer.
Here I am, on a video made with men in mind but my heart and spirit needed to hear this TODAY! Thank you, this is my first time on ur channel and I am grateful for u allowing the Spirit of the Almighty God to speak thru u to edify His sons (and daughters ❤) I just sent this video to my husband, this is a right on time message for the both of us! Shalom and blessings from Detroit!
Whew that's a good word. Obedience is a matter of the heart before the will.
The root comes before the fruit. True discipline is the slave of right desire. What marvelous words, and a beautiful man!
Keep allowing Yehushua to continually use you👊🏾❤️💯🙏🏾. This blessed my soul.
I am from Mozambique, very far from you and my comment is just proud of knowing man like you. Black spiritually forever, God bless you
You are right man. Desire is the root, which I haven't acknowledged in major aspects in my life. This ones for the algorithm
My fellow believers will see the Spirit of God in this guy. We should all welcome the Holy Spirit to live like Christ.
I'm choking back tears man..I weigh more than I ever have, 260lbs. A healthy weight for me is 200 or less. I've felt trapped in a dungeon for 2 decades. I feel like I've "desired" to change this up for years. I'll make progress then fall off the rhythm. I want so desperately to give my beautiful wife the gift that she's given me for 12 years (a beautiful body to enjoy) But where I struggle is the loving myself (self condemnation) and long-term consistency. This video is encouraging. Looking forward to watching more. Thanks so much, Bro.
Keep trying man don't give up
@@aldololoco1412 Gwiz so theres this new catchphrase going around about "colourism' and of course its rebranded old news, but even so, lets press this using the case of lil kim. If we do we might conclude the victims of colourism indulge in the same victimhood politics as the LGBT brigade 💪🏻
Lil Kim for example "confessed" that she started bleaching because black men did not want her and openly expressed their preference for lighter skinned women. Leaving aside female sexual selection pressure and its inherent unquestioned entitlements, what is she really saying? 🤔
Keeping in mind that the highest power is that which can say "no" she is essentially saying she had less objects upon which to exert her power. She had a smaller pool of men to reject. She had less men to lead on, manipulate, insult, confuse, deceive and belittle. She ultimately willed to be in a better pisition to assume and practice her prerogative ; her female duty to degrade and deny men, and yet, it is woman who need protecting 🙈
If we cease femsplaining and turn to mansplaining we unearth a series of unique or additional insights, for example, the idea that colourism isnt racial but corporate. Men arent as bothered by "colourism" as its just another brand of the many ways in which we are called igly eveeyday. Women however take exception as it undermines their pretences to being gods. For a man to be able to say "no" to them means they cease being women; whilst he becomes one.
We as a people have problems all across the board so why would women focus exclusively on this particular aspect of our sickness whilst ignoring and neglecting others. Its as if they treat our pathologies as they do men. If we do dissimilar and see it as an issue of branding we can suggest that the issue is with who gets to define worth, and what trend will be in vogue. Theyre upset that their dashion is out of style but want everyone to buy into their branding.
But lets pretend this logic isnt true and presume this claim of colourism has some merit. Let's jump ahead to a future place where darker skinned women are celebrated and cherished, and call it nigtopia. In nigtopia our people still have no control over their education, housing, mass communication, employment, means of production, continent or global image, but the darker skinned women feel real good. Im curious; what problem will this solve? 😐
It brings me back to apartheid azania where the white elite classified the japanese - or was it the chinese - as honorary whites. Under no circumstances would it have made sense to bicker amongst themselves about their designations, unless they were in collusion with the existing antiblack power equation , which most these anti "colourism" claimants are. They arent seeking liberation, but containment. They want to be oppressed peacefully
If these people were deeply upset ablut colourism it is unlikely they would be the same ones to mock african features such as complexion and hair and yet they're often the very ones referencing hair as picky, niggerish and nappy, whilst claiming mixed/diluted heritage as pretty or good hair. How can people claim to be against the source of their values and the system defining how they see the world? They arent; they want to refine the system not eradicate it because they remain invested and are the reason it perpetuates.
Language, Neely Fuller and other long explained, structures how we see the world. It is as if what we see is ordered by what we think, which is determined by the tools used and programming our thinking. If however we fail to challenge concepts of "fairness" that essentially equate whiteness with purity and right, it is a battle lost prior to a pistol being fired. We cannot think like them and still profess/pretend to be against then. It doesnt make sense.

How’s it going ?
MTR brought me here and i am subscribing. Thank you Good Sir. Jason, our younger generation and most men need you.
I’m a woman and this found me. This inspired me in 2021. Wow.
love the "My brothers" thing it's so appeasing

TMH❤😇 #THANKYOU!!!!
#DESIRE MEANS #EVERYTHING AS DISCIPLINE IS A #MUST!!! Hello #Brother we're #cut ✂️ from the same cloth nice meeting 1one of my long lost #brother's ❤😇🙏🏿
In the #fold.
I'm not religious and don't need to be to absorb this message. Good stuff! Thanks.
Absolutely.
When you watch martial arts movies.
Often the instructor, sensei, or sifu denies the student to determine will and desire.
Damn- that was about as precise/epic as it gets. Much respect to you, sir.
Mr Jason Wilson, i have recently discovered your work on this platform, just wanted to thank you for inspiring people from all around the globe.
- Eugene, Russia
I didn't expect recommendation to give me something I can grasp. So many times I find motivation videos to rub my soul wrong.
Thank you Jason for sharing that. I really appreciate the wisdom you share cause I'm struggling and need rest for my soul
Kyle, I'd like to encourage you. You have the power and what it takes to attain the rest you need, but you need other other men to help you claim it in a safe way. I've worked with hundreds of men in your type of situation and seen them liberated from the crap that holds them back in life. I'd recommend a weekend at The Crucible. Sign up at the www.thecrucibleproject.org Jason has been to the initial weekend of The Crucible and offers his thoughts on this in his book. He also lists it as a recommended resource for men who want to take control of their life and break free from their emotional incarceration. Peace.
A lot of people needed to hear this (me included), Thank you Mr. Wilson.
Feels like God as speaking to me. This man is truly doing what the Lord sent him to do
"Motivation is fleeting"....just like beauty.
3 years old and this came right on time .. thank you God
Jason, you're amazing! Keep up the great work you are doing.
I've also never looked at it that way, damn! Thank you Mr.
AS A WOMAN, I needed to hear this.
What a blessing finding Jason ! Thank you Joe Rogan for having Jason on your podcast!
Men are terrified of labels. These ideas are used to domesticate and direct them. Men are ruled by this process of discipline kept in place by secret systems of symbols, signals, moods and messages. Far from being tamed by men women train men. We do the dirty work. Through false virtues and slave morals men are tricked into acquiescence and duped into submission. They believe it to be right and honourable despite the pain and anguish it causes. Maybe Naomi Wolf should have wrote about this; the Myth of Male Power.
Thank you man. I needed healing and I’ve found your account. This channel means a lot to me
i just wanna say I appreciate you for spreading this knowledge you inspire me man
As a muslim thank you for the informative video, Allah bless your heart with joy and happiness.
I am glad to see a man with strong mindset and teach good morality.
Out of love please let me invite you to see what islam has to offer for many topics of common society's issues and prevent.
thanks a lot brother.
Stop asking him to sin in the name of love
Creating a workout routine, and designing eating habits, is about creating ritual in my life. I’m in week 3 of a new lifestyle change and I’m still getting over feeling stressed over not having the right food, or missing a workout because life got in the way, but I am starting to crave my routine, and the stability I feel around it. It feels good to wake up with a goal every day, some days I want to scream from exhaustion but on days I don’t have that structure, I feel lost.
Hello Jason! You'r messages are speaking to my spirit. I am finding my path to healing and liberation. I thank the most high God for you 🙏🏾
Glad I’ve seen this in my recommendations. Thank you for the message man. Well needed message for sure. I needed to hear this ✊🏽❤️

Thank you ! This helped me even though I know it was for the brothers, please keep sharing!

Thank you brother, you are an amazing gift to this planet. In fact, let me retract my statement, running across you was NO ACCIDENT!

Goodness gracious…
This hit me. I don’t even have the words to describe how this blessed me. Definitely grabbing the book.
This is top tier coaching. Props Mr. Wilson!
I’m glad I found this man.
I've been searching and praying for a way to supplement teaching Christ-likeness through martial arts as opposed to teaching martial arts and Christianity. It is an answer to prayer and a blessing to discover the fruit of the vine that comes through Mr. Jason Wilson leading by example! I am looking to connect my senseis with this sort of curriculum so we can better embolden kids with the quality of teaching they deserve!!
Just one thing, the verse that appears at 5:06 is actually from James 1:15.
We are honored to view these lessons, thank you for choosing to share with us, sir!
I have been bullied as a kid and now I kinda feel I do that to myself. I desire that no more. Thank you Mr Wilson. God spoke to me through you. I really needed that and I need prayers. I wish I had a mentor like you! Many blessings.
You’re a beautiful soul! I encourage you to finish well...Love You!
Thank you, Mr.Wilson! I needed these words right now.
Thank you very much, sir, this is such a good advice! I struggle with an addiction, and having the desire for the good as the main source of strength, to keep fighting, is key. This reminds me of saint Augustine, who said something similar when he had to struggle agains lust; at first, even though he wanted to achieve chastity, he couldn't because he didn't wish it. But after he saw the vanity of lust, and how much it was negative for his soul, when he started to truly wish to stop, then he succeded.
The desire will give me motivation to continue, and then I'll work my discipline to fight against temptations!
Love your message. Like you I am loving my son the way I wish my father would had loved me.
this is powerful, thank you man
Wait…. Took me a second, but that was crazy deep. Much love and gratitude, my brother.
