Best places to sleep 1. Truck stops ( it's legal and there are bathrooms / showers and lots of light ) 2. Rest areas again ... Bathrooms ,it's legal and you have lots of lighting 3. Cracker Barrels ... It's legal lots of lighting and great food in the morning / bathrooms . Usually they are in an area with gas stations and hotels so you can use the bathrooms . Note: I wouldn't ever sleep at a Walmart . I don't know why I just don't . Never felt right about it . I'm sure you can find camping spots and other places but for my own personal experiences these three places have done me well . God bless you .
I couldn’t agree more Brandon! I got cancer at my early 30s and that made me realize that all the material superficial things go away so fast.. that’s why we gotta live everyday to the fullest and don’t think about anyone’s opinions! Love your content ✌🏻
@@mindful_wander the part where you spoke about the highest highs and the lowest lows in your past relationship. Life is all about ups and downs. If we only want to enjoy the peaks and not work through the valleys that relationship is doomed from the beginning. I don't feel so alone anymore when i hear that someone else has experienced the same thing as me.
@@kagezenthanks friend. Yes, I feel that the way in which we are (or are not) able to navigate those low valleys, says a lot about the relationship dynamic. So much power in being able to recognize triggers and remember that we’re on the same team as our partner, rather than seeing them as an opponent. Just something I learned the hard way 😅
Me not a normie so here my 20s Early 20s - Isolation, college, one rejection , playing Skyrim alot Mid - Isolation Late 20s - Isolation, fail at life, never had a girlfriend, work a dead end Job. Feel like waste
Thanks for opening up. Question - what did you study in college and why? Just curious. Also, have you been to the RU-vid channel called HealthyGamer GG? I imagine you have if you're a gamer but, if not, definitely check it out. I love that channel and it's very relevant to gamers. If you've already been there, let me know what you think.
@mindful_wander it was for computer graphics but by the time I graduated in late 2019 got a internship for a Marriott for grahic designer but was trick and became something called public areas wich meant janitor....don't work there anymore after the pandemic that hotel been thur some problems. Yea I have seen his videos but not sure what to do, for career 🤔 am already going back to university to get my bachelor’s in UX/UI or web designer as for the dating thing it's better to stay single, didn't work then won't work now.
@@unisangalaxystudioall the best to you on your educational journey. I’m sure some good things will come of it. And I hear ya on the relationship part. Some periods of our life are better served by embracing our single life and building a deeper relationship to ourself, you know what I mean?
dude, you're over thinking it. We'll never figure anything out. lol just vibe bruh. Everything we do is a tradeoff in this life, we'll always be striving for more.
Maybe so. I kinda feel like I'm made that way. I very curious and I tend to question pretty much everything. Love your go-with-the-vibe attitude though. Thanks for sharing some of it!
I only take 100mg immediately i wake up, and feel the effects within 1/2 hour. It gives me more focus, cloudies disappear and emotions are kept under control. If I have an important meeting in the afternoon, i take another 50 mg and it keeps the focus in tact.. never taken 200mg but the max i took was 175mg.
In the 10s! When you said that, I started thinking about how different we are at 10 versus 19. It’s a complete metamorphosis. Way more change than 20 versus 29 😆
Yes, you can attach it to a normal tripod when you attach the extended grip (it has a thread on the bottom of it, which the camera by itself does not). The creator combo also comes with a mini tripod. There’s no Bluetooth control but you can use your smartphone and the DJI Mimo app. Works really well.
Agreed! Now work outs are just to maintain your skeleton from succumbing to gravity! There are tons of buff 40+ folks and they are HOT as Fo00k! But youthful bouncy skin.... doesn't last forever.... Buuuuut when you are older everything is about quality or life not quantity of xyz!!! That's a bonus, I believe ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤
I feel as though I have a downward trajectory in my life. I’m 19, I go to a top 10 school, I’m doing reasonably well academically, and have a full ride. I don’t know what to do, I feel as though I did everything right even “winning the jackpot” of college admissions. But the stress and social life of the college is such that I have lost significant portions of my memory, will to live, and ability to function normally. “Investing in yourself” young is weird, you lose all the things you wanted and waste it all learning things you don’t care about for an abstract payoff at a later date. It’s torturous.
well, begin to train yourself in the art of you are alone and you need to disregard social life. Being social is not what gives success, to know how to communicate is what provides success. Also, play older games, disregard any woke stuff, practice critical thinking, be true to yourself.
Hey Antonio. Sorry to hear it’s been a struggle lately. Sounds like there is indeed a ton of pressure and stress happening. It sounds like much of that is coming from academic pressure but can you elaborate more on how the social life in college is leading to this spiral? Your health is the most important thing. Without it, none of the other stuff matters. And in this day and age, I feel that we’re finally coming to terms with the idea that “health” includes physical, mental, and emotional. It can be great to push yourself beyond your current limits but that can be overdone as well.
Great video essay Brandon, I like the part where you explain the difficulty of maintaining a relationship that had high highs and low lows and that sometime incompatibility can really be something that destroys a relationship. I personally I am going through a similar experience and as a man I am trying to plan for the long term. Some difficult decisions have to be taken so you can have internal peace of mind
Hey Abdalla. Thanks a lot! All the best to you in navigating your relationship. Here is what helped me a ton in that specific relationship - personality tests. And believe me, I use to think those things were dumb. But I gave these two specific ones a chance and I realized that comparing my answers to my partners REALLY helped me understand myself and my partner. I was able to see the ways in which we were alike (which was great), I could see the ways in which she was different than me (which gave her strengths that I don’t have), and most importantly it helped me identify the aspects of our personalities that were so different and so crucial that it made the relationship a constant struggle. The two tests we took together are Enneagram and 16 Personalities. Give ‘em a try if you’re interested
B..a very impressive video,best ever. We all go through life's stages and as you pointed out..make yourself happy not what life or or others say to to follow!!
Hey RT! Sorry for the delay in getting back to ya. I started a fever right after posting this video and am just getting out of it 😅 You certainly go through life with your own inner wisdom! Wondering what kinds of things were going through the mind of a 36-year-old Rob Turner
I feel like a 30 year old 19 year old. I’ve been doing a lot of self reflection and have asked all these questions before even hitting my 20’s. Loved this video, and love how we all go through the same shit, feels less daunting. The human experience is so beautiful; it’s so interesting how complex we can think and feel and understand certain emotions. Wishing you the best journey! :)
Just judging from this comment, it seems like you’re a very contemplative person. That’s awesome. I also love the outlook you bring to this. The human experience really is a beautiful thing. What has been one major reflection or question that you are going through, now that you’re about to be 20?
@@mindful_wander Well, personally, I'm 20 and feel similar to the OP. I had always thought I was just going to "find" my place in life, like a piece to a puzzle, but I've been having to deal with the fact that it's not exactly like that. Looking around at where I'm at, the people I'm surrounded by... No, life is truly just what you make of it. We all have to "make" the place we want to be in.
@@angelina4487yea such a good point. I kinda feel like life is a mix of allowing things to flow and come to you, and making things/opportunities happen through specific intentions. Is there any particular way that you’re trying to make the place you’re in now?
Brandon, very thoughtful evaluation of your 20s vs your 30s. I appreciate you sharing from your personal experiences. I especially liked the questions to ask yourself around the 8:11 mark. I will think on those for a while. I also like that you discuss reasons why it’s good to consider these questions. I enjoyed the video. I dig the quote at the end too. Cheers brother! 🤙
Brandon, I've always appreciated your introspective and reflective view of the world. Thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing openly. Great video!
Hey, thanks Anthony! I've always appreciated your feedback on things and your calm and grounded presence. Thanks again. Loving the very polished content you've been putting out too, by the way.
Hey, thanks Dan! As a small creator, I REALLY appreciate that. Glad I could provide something useful too. Have you ended up changing your work path? Thanks again!
@@mindful_wander I invested into the skill of drawing and I’ve been contemplating which path to go. I’d like the freedom to WFH so I’ve been looking into potential jobs online things but AI decimated a lot of opportunities with freelance like Fiverr although it already has been bleak with the issues of outsourcing to cheaper countries. I’ve thought about concept art but the situation is similar. It seems AI hasn’t caught up to 3d modeling which opens more opportunities but who knows when AI will catch up to that as well. It’s difficult because there has to be a compromise between freedom of WFH, creating from my own passion and enjoyment instead of appealing to markets, and being able to make a living. I imagine you must feel similar. It seems that the most satisfying but much more arduous path is to create your own brand and products. I think I’ll take your advice and try out a google certificate in marketing. Thanks again! Keep up the content. Love hearing your perspective.
Thanks bro! I appreciate that. Just saw the vid on your homepage. 26! Such a fun age. In some ways, feels like prime time. What's one challenge you've overcome in your 20s?
Great video, Brandon! Some people ask themselves these sorts of questions at any age, not just in their 30s, and are naturally just more free-spirited. I am definitely one of them, and I'm still in my late 20s. But I think that its true that the 30s seem like a real passage between the innocence of youth and the wisdom of old age. Maybe we just think differently about life as we go through it, and our thinking in each stage and decade reflects the circumstances we face in that time. In any case, I'm sure that the 30s are a lot lot less formative on a fundamental level than the 20s, so that's good!
I agree! I think I’ve been always very contemplative and introspective person and wanted to live in alignment so I’ve been naturally asking myself these questions in my 20s. But I turned 30 last year and I gotta say that these questions hit differently as the pressure to ‘get it right’ grows. I feel that it requires even more brutal honestly and courage than in my 20s. 🤍
Hey brother. Wishing the best for you, sincerely. May you continue to find peace in your busy mind and love in your heart. Life is tough but there is hope.
This is the most accurate modafinil video I have seen. 300 does seem to be the sweet spot. I would like to try alternating adderal and modafinil but adderal is too damn hard to get and its insanely expensive illegally or legally. I have a super hard time staying awake and waking up for the day and getting going is almost impossible for me without help. I can snort an 8 ball of cocaine and go right to sleep no problem. it sucks.
Dang that’s intense. Do you ever worry that you’re overloading your system? I mean it may not be giving you the results you want until you use higher doses but I imagine it’s still putting at least some strain on organs like perhaps liver or kidneys. Just a guess though. I’m not a doctor obviously 😆 anyways, all the best to you and the performance/goals you seek
