    I'm 29 days sober, no weed and no beer. I didn't do it as a new year resolution. I have goals in mind and I just had a strong feeling that I was gonna have tough challenges this year. I wanted to have a clear mind. No amount of days in mind, nothing. Like I predicted, 7 days ago, I learned that I was let go from my contract. After almost 2 years there, it's like my co-workers are turning against me for my final weeks. I'm tired of corporate. I'm really trying to quit the office world this year. I had a good high paying job that I hated but I was going to reach my goals faster. I just want to live quietly in nature, I'm emotionally dead inside.

Well I failed and I’m still broke. It’s like I feel like I don’t know how to succeed in this life. I have been playing music for 20 years and feel like a failure in that to bc I have never played live. Anyways just thought I would give my new years story and this year I am done saying I’m doing anything(I’m also 35 and getting scared I’m getting older with no career)

    • @grason9418
      @grason9418 Před 5 měsíci

      Like Dewayne said, don't just say "this is the year". That puts too much pressure on yourself. Don't label yourself a failure, either. That's not helpful and only causes you to wallow in self pity. If you're curious, look up the Standford Prison Experiment and learn about what labels can to do a person. For the new year, just preform actions that will better you in the long run. No need to make a 'thing' out of it. Try to stick to something you enjoy and can make a life of. A lot of people can't force themselves to stick to something they hate even if they need the money. If you can't stick to a 'money maker', just do what you love and figure out how to make a living off of it. You could try to get a gig playing music at old folks homes, or teach children to play your instrument, or try to sell your music online. Good luck brother

  • @LavendLady
    @LavendLady Před 6 měsíci

    If you feel like like running-- instead of removing yourself from the situation, offer yourself something calm.
    Replace fear with wisdom, knowledge and experience which supplies self-confidence. Self confidence leads to calmness and calmness leads to safety.
    This is pure wisdom. Dewayne, I am applying this wisdom and knowledge to my innate feeling to shut down in my relationship. Everytime he says or does something I feel I wrong (due to his ill behavior and bad mouth against me in our history) I immediately tell him to get away from me. I tell him to leave me alone and to go away.
    It's been a long journey with him and I do feel like giving up because I feel like it's time for HIM to change. I feel that ive been ever changing for 13 years and for him, he just gets to be stiff. I don't get it most days and I've developed such a deep anger with him and his chosen ways. I can bend if he can bend. I just want him to see the light.

And honestly, the best thing about it was that my current situation is all the more valuable because I understand the alternative is somewhere I never want to go to again.

    It’s very similar to training dogs: the dog won’t stop to like chasing cats, for example, but if you teach her recall and reward generously, it will come to you instead of a cat. Reward yourself for making better choices 😊

    Once again, thank you! I have several young men who look up to me, and I find it very helpful how you re-tell age-old wisdom with stories. Kinda like having Louis Lamore giving Godly advice. Blessings to you, Dwyane, and your wife. Mark in Montana.

    I believe "they" lied to us when they told us that opposites attract. Maybe true on some levels but with a relationship it s probably best to trust that process and be the best version of yourself and that perfectly imperfect woman will come to me....or won't! Either way I'm blessed!!!🎉🎉🎉💗💗💗💐💐💐

    You're a wise fellow. This is some grade A advice. I'm planning to quit drinking this month after years of alcoholism and this is going to help me a lot. Thank you ^_^

    For the first time in a very long time, I'm able to tell myself I deserve to heal. I know it isn't as easy as "I don't want to be sad and confused anymore so I won't be."
    But something clicked for me a few months ago, I guess. I was so angry for so long, and I was so afraid of someone telling me I didn't deserve to be, that I didn't realize how much stress I was causing myself by making such a bigger issue out of it. No one was telling me I couldn't be. I just never got the validation that I wanted. I spent most of 2023 being very exhausted, to the point of me believing I had long covid. I had no idea depression could make you this tired. Somewhere around December, I asked myself, "Aren't you tired?" And instead of breaking down, like usual, and go "yeah I am! I'm so tired and angry! And I deserve to be!" I went "Yeah, I am. But I don't want to be anymore. I want to be happy."
    Breaking out of a victim mentality is a lot more difficult than I told myself it would be. I've had to confront very real fears. But if I can survive cancer and my father, I can thrive for myself. That anger isn't doing anything for me. I'm a 28 year old woman and I spent too long being angry. I looked at my reflection for the first time today, right in the eye, and said "I love you." And I cried like a baby. So I'll say it until I can smile. ❤

    Key conclusions :
    Do not remove, but replace what you want to get rid of ( so as not to leave a hole for something worse )
    Be consistent and patient
    And change yourself because a new year doesn't change anything!

    Never knock another man’s desire to change for the better. Yes, it’s touché to change on the new years. Maybe re will fail than will succeed. But don’t give up if you’re trying! I’m two weeks nicotine free! Feeling great!

    I stumbled across your channel when I was a younger man, and through your words of wisdom; I have become a better and stronger man in mind and body. There are many more young men, who may be unsure of their role in life. Your channel gives the many a positive direction for the many you have helped.
    Sending you abundant gratitude and thanks from South Texas, U.S.A.
