Why don’t you have a man yet?!
Oh...you’re still single? But why?
Uh-oh. Better find a relationship while you still have time!
Any of these sound familiar? If you’re single, I’m sure they will.
Whether it’s in Hollywood romcoms, glossy magazines, or even just your mother’s nagging, there seems to be a constant assumption in the world that being single is the WORST THING EVER.
Maybe you even secretly feel this way yourself.
But you shouldn’t. Being single is totally underrated. In fact, it can be so much fun that you wonder why anyone would ever want a relationship to begin with. In this week’s blog video, I’m joined by a very special guest, my friend Lewis Howes, former pro-athlete and host of the School of Greatness podcast.
I’ve followed Lewis’s work for a while now, and I’m thrilled he agreed to come and share his top 5 reasons why being single can be the opportunity of a lifetime, and why you should savour every second of being free and unattached while you can. It’s a really fun and insightful video, with some genius practical tips for making your life extraordinary so that you can truly appreciate yourself and have a world that bring you happiness and fulfillment.
As you know, I don’t have guests in my video blogs very often, so you can trust me when I say that Lewis provides incredible value.

When I'm single I listen to my friends talking about their relationship problems, or watch couples argue and struggle. In this moments I'm like : "wow, I'm in such a quiet and peaceful place right now !".

After my husband died I had no idea how to go on living. Now I watch opera every night when I get home from work. I go to group therapy with other widows. I make RU-vid's of things I think are beautiful and important. I took the best care I could of the 5 cats my husband left me when he died. Three years after my husband died, our apartment got destroyed in a fire. When the firemen and police refused to go into the building because they were afraid it was about to collapse I went in and saved the four cats that were still alive. I volunteer as a gardener at a public garden and I raise butterflies. It's not the life we planned, but I do what I can.

The one thing to make being single more bearable: turn off social media, go outside, smile at grumpy strangers, and enjoy the moment when a frown turns upside down. Always makes me feel better :) I have this rule... When I feel hesitant about going out on a limb, texting a crush for example, I assign myself a challenge to earn the text... One day, I challenged myself to make 18 strangers simile :) I ended up having one of the best days at work, and laughing through the day with my client. Cheers.

@nadiag366 3 года назад

As a single person the one thing that I've been doing that's improved my life 100 fold!! Is getting to know myself through healing and personal development. I've been doing EFT, I've been journaling, going through self exploration and trauma healing. Working on being and feeling more competent and worthy of existing. Connecting with myself and nature. Learning to live in each present moment. Setting boundaries and learning to speak up more and a host of other things that have just helped me feel more grounded in who I am. Learning about myself, learning about the things I am interested in. Learning new skills. This has helped me glow and grow and it's so funny because I'm constantly being asked if theres a man in my life or having colleagues and acquaintances joking about how I'm hiding someone special and lying about being single and when ever I hear that my heart just beams because it shows that I'm so full and overflowing and beautiful that others think there has to be some one inspiring this change, meanwhile it's just me, I'm inspiring my own glow. 🌟 and even though I do desire romance and intimacy, I'm at a point where whoever I choose to be in a relationship with has to add to my joy otherwise what's the point. And he will come in time, I don't have to rush or worry about it.

I've been single for three years, at first I felt self conscious to tell people I'm single, but then i decided to go to spa days and reward myself for good things i do through the day. I also went to the movies alone, and I remember I felt so awkward asking for one ticket but I realized how strong I was to be standing alone and having fun appreciating myself. Now I feel so confident and I truly love myself which makes me ready to love someone. It's nice to be single sometimes 😉

1-don't have to shave your legs every day (sometimes I would go on a date without shaving my legs , so I feel relaxed and control the "speed" we are moving in) 2-can leave dishes in the sink over night, or day, or few days 3-wear the same t-shirt 3 days in a row 4- don't have to feel bad for not cooking dinner every night 5- not worrying where the hell he is and why he is not calling back 6- watch chick flicks all Sunday 7- not worrying what gifts to get in-laws for Christmas, and if should get something for his brothers and their wife's 8 - flirt as much as you want without looking over your shoulder 9 - move country - no worries about distance relationship 10- drink and eat as much or as little as you want of what you want! Some people actually do take care of their bodies and appearance too much when they are in a relationship. And could be more attractive when they are more relaxed. I have learned about 10 new baking and cooking recopies in 2 months of living together and I cooked 2 dishes over 4 months of being single. And learn that it's your choice !

At first I thought I would go crazy alone in my new apartment, but after only five months I actually can't see me move in with a guy ever again, because I spoil myself to just do what the hell I want. The only thing that bothers me is, that I would still like to have children. If it wasn't for that, I would be perfectly happy right now.

I think, looking back, what I meant then was: learn to be happy alone and appreciate your space and moment in your life, so when you get together with someone - you can appreciate being together and also stay yourself. I am naturally overcaring person, I do too much, so for me it isn’t obvious to be chill about tidiness and food when I am with someone, but I am chill about my looks. I can be relaxed about that at least 🤣🐥🙌

@NindeOronar 9 лет назад

For me it helps to not think of myself as single. Somehow this label gives you the idea that this is a state in which you are for a certain time. And then you get this feeling well, when should that be over then? Am I too late or..? And this feeling like you can't do that on your own, because well, in a relationship there are two. Labeling myself as single makes me feel weaker, actually. I don't want to focus on what seems to be the norm about being single. All these feelings and emotions and expectations arise with labeling yourself (and others) single. As if it's a bad thing to be single. So what I just do is think about who I am as a person. I don't need anyone in my life to be(come) happy, fullfilled and complete. I'm not single, I'm multiple. ;)

@NindeOronar 9 лет назад

+Angie W Good for you ;). Maybe society and other people stimulate the negative meaning, but it is up to one self if you accept that meaning. I choose not to ;) though it can be a struggle when people keep asking you why are you single.. as if it's a bad thing, as if something is wrong with you. I think being single has made me become more aware of who I am and of what I can give to myself and to others. I don't need to be in a relationship, though I want to one day.

@sarahcwiek1784 3 года назад

I prefer being single to being in a relationship. But I think of these states as though I'm a plant, growing or dormant respectively. I feel like when I'm in a relationship, men want to be nurtured but they don't know how (or don't care to try) to nurture back. So when I am in a relationship I feel malnourished, not growing, not flourishing, still functioning but otherwise basically on pause - dormant. When I'm single, I can be totally in tune with my body, mind, and emotions, and I can satisfy my needs and desires as they arise. I can use the extra resources I have to enjoy the things that excite me and keep my curiosity going. I truly enjoy being in this flourishing state. I do see the appeal of being in a relationship, but I also feel exhausted just thinking about the reality of having a second set of needs to meet. It's the single life for me.

@jOrdanluver911 9 лет назад

To make being single more enjoyable, I think of my time as being ultra valuable but not limited. Often times (not always...but often) when ppl desperately want to be in a relationship for the wrong reasons, it's Bc they think they don't have enough time left to find "the one" to spend time w, love or make babies with etc. But when you think of your time as valuable, you start to be more aware of what u should spend that time on...instead of losing your shit over the fact that you don't have much time left. It's true when ppl say, "love is timeless." ;)

Number 1 thing that makes your life enjoyable when you're single; MAKING PEOPLE SMILE OR LAUGH - by socializing (people you already know or you meet while you go to work or to school) , it will not only make their day brighter but it also makes yours brighter and gives you more confidence in your life. You can achieve this by simply talking to them , making a slight jock on something, may be just smiling at them would be enough or even helping those who are in need can bring a smile to their face, because you 'spread' love through your action(s).

Great insight. I got into a relationship soon after I was suddenly widowed because I was so afraid to be alone... now 5 years later - I've been single for a year. It's taken me a while to appreciate being single - but I am really loving getting to know myself better - and as corny as it sounds - the whole dating myself thing. Really appreciated Matt's comment about being a morning person. I used to feel that I had to go out at night to "be alive" - but now I appreciate having a good night's sleep and starting the day fresh. A truly better perspective. ~thanks Matt and Lewis

@MAPSMAPS1234 9 лет назад

This is great. I've got one, too. It kinda piggybacks on the self-dating concept, except with more introspection - and that'd be a good meditation practice. Nothing exotic. Just some quiescence; some time away from technology and others alike. Whether that's in the literal sense - sitting all cross legged and stuff - or in a more interpretive sense, it's helpful to learn the difference between solitude and isolation. Things like jogging, paddleboarding, yoga, working out solo, swimming, or taking a hike are all great ways to reflect on some of those excellent pointers both'a you mention. 'cause it's tough to be happy with yourself if you don't know who that is. And it's tough to find out who you are if you've constantly got distractions plugged into your skull trying to dictate the parameters of your personality. Excellent vid! :)

@connormcdermott9943 5 лет назад

Love the video guys! Friend of mine recommended I watch this. Glad I did. Been single for about four years now. Took me two years to finally understand and appreciate what it meant to be single. Took a job that allowed me to move to a new city, travel, and meet new people in places I've never been to but also in my own back yard. Moved back home and I've had the humbling opportunity to rekindle relationships, start new ones, and find the ones worth deepening. I agree with every one of your top fives (plus the back up). My top reason to enjoy being single is to intellectually stimulate yourself. Obviously, this can be done during a relationship but with the opportunity of more time to commit to learning that is interesting, challenging, or just outside of work/school has been the biggest part of my life now that I've seized the opportunity. For example, I've always wanted to learn to work on my own car, even just the basics. So once I was home and not travelling anymore, I jumped to it. It was something I was interested in, it challenged me, and was outside of my every day work knowledge. I look forward to what I learn at work but this is a different kind of passion for learning, and a type of learning that I haven't been able to pursue until now. I get to show my intellect to people, help them, and teach them which is what I think is what knowledge is all about, sharing. After all, knowledge is power, right? People notice it too.

@tanyaakh 8 лет назад

To me the most important plus of being single is that I proceed on my spiritual journey (getting to know myself better and deeper) while feeling that I'm in 100% control of myself and my life instead of giving some power away by letting the other person influence how I feel and think about myself. Plus, complete freedom to do anything whenever I want.

@vedababe123 6 лет назад

One that I would add is to pay attention to the natural beauty around you. Seeing the small randomly placed beauty of nature like a sunset or a flower during mid bloom. This helps to open your creativityallowing it to flow more vibrant, it reminds you how precious life is itself and expand how you view your surroundings.

@ritastulov8412 6 лет назад

I realized that I am already doing a few of these things just because I want to make myself really feel at my best and reach some goals I have had for such a long type as simple as just havin a morning routine...not a really long fancy one but just having a routine which includes a few things that make me feel good in the morning ( writing and eating healthy ) and that are personally really important to me ( vocal warm up and practicing guitar ). After that I go to work and I love socialising with people because I work at a restaurant and I never enjoyed small talk but I changed my mental state to trying to brighten everybodys day which brightens mine automatically. One thing I wanna add is that I have ' eliminated ' or rather stopped meeting people I don't enjoy being around. I may like them or they may be really old friends of mine but there are a lot of people I don't resonate with but meet anyways and making my time a priority makes me feel so much better. I am slowly starting to get to know how and who I want to be and I am totally focused on that. I try to love the people around me and if it happens that I particularly resonate with one person, cool...if not I am just continuing to focus on my vision of life and I am sure that 'love' or 'attraction' will happen and be best if it just naturally happens. Big rant...don't know where that came from. Great video Matthew!! :-))

@ryntintynvin 5 лет назад

Write down exactly what you want, not only in a significant other, but out of life in general. Keep it so that you don't get swept up in the initial attraction to someone and settle for something less than what you're looking for, and also so that you can keep those in mind as you develop a relationship with someone. We often start to feel like "that wasn't so important" because it changes gradually over time, but if you write something down when you're single as the most important thing, you are less likely to lose track of it later. None of that is to say what you want can't change, but if you write it down, you force yourself to mull it over and really decide to change your priorities instead of just letting them drift away as you get comfortable over time.

To answer the question at the end. While being single, I like to train myself to see and enjoy that which brings out my "Higher self." When your with a mate, it's really easy to get caught up in their view of you which is feed through their filters. Authenticity is important to me and that gets muddy sometimes.

I enjoy singleness and being in a relationship. These videos are up beat and fun to watch. Being happy with YOU, yourself is important ♡♡♡♡

You are that kind of person that remind me the perfect English man I watched in the movies. What I really mean is how difficult it is to find a man who thinks and behaves like you Matthew. I´m from Colombia and for me is a pleasure to learn from someone who has taken some or a lot of his time to analyse and understand how things work in love and relationships. The best of this is that you are leaving a good track for men and women. You are fantastic! Thanks so much Matthew Hussey

Finally at 46 I love to be single. No expectations and dissapointments about what somebody wants or says. Just me and the world who responds. Its peaceful to get 'offers' and just thank and walk on, continue my path. Finally 🙏

I've been single for 4 years and that's super glorious time for me, i enjoy my life without drama queens and another bs they have, self improvement like learning spanish, french, investment, soft skills etc and building my muscles also gaining money with no distraction and disruption make me of the happiest man on earth in my whole life, probably i will be single forever. 😄

The implied: Going to bed thinking people suck, which programs your subconscious. You are what you think. Get out during the day, meet people who are sober AND fun! Program that possibility into your subconscious and bring more of those people to you. You guys are a dream team! I think more of these vids should be made ;) Thank you to both of you, I am grateful for the advice!

Thank you for sharing! I personally would say my #1 would be to take 10-30 minutes in the morning to meditate. Dive into the body, flow with the breath, express gratitude for time and space to focus on yourself and set an intention for the day. Or ask yourself what can I do today to change my life, and make it happen.

@mckenzienichols9982 6 лет назад

One thing I love about being single is getting to know myself again! In my last relationship I gave too much too quickly and essentially lost part of myself, but I'm not the same as I was before the relatiinship. So, I do have to learn more about myself again, find what I'm passionate about, and help myself grow into someone I'm happy to be.

I absolutely adore watching the current and older videos. So many positives from this channel. I still absolutely hate being single. Literally cannot find anything I like about it. The next person who tells me to "love myself" is going to be met with a very unpleasant experience.

@amyli092 Год назад

There's a co-worker of mine who thoroughly enjoys being single and has no interest in dating anybody. When the two of us first started talking, I was immediately struck by how much we have in common in terms of personality and interests. I also have a best girl friend who I see as a sister by choice who isn't dating anybody, and we've been close for a couple years now. I feel like being single is starting to spark joy again for me for the first time in a long time. I knew that it was possible for me to enjoy being single before I started dating guys, but because my history of dating has basically been toxic, I'm making a promise to myself now to stay single and stop thinking of the idea of that next potential partner, and to make more room for just enjoying myself.

@Martusiak91k 6 лет назад

Reg taking chances on complementing other people great point and segment. It's like with interviews. The best interviews I've ever had were the ones I took when I didn't actually want/need the job. Even if the job ended up not wanting me. The feeling of being empowered by not carying about the outcome, just focusing on you, your great assets and evaluating what is really important for you (with a great dose of socializing - interviewers are ppl too). Not what you can accept in desperate moments. Love it.

Hey Matt, as there are probably quite a lot of sucky self-improvement books out there, ( and i assume you read a lot of books from this area in your life) i would love to see recommendations from you of books that really made an impact on your life. I know you don't read the youtube comments but maybe someone tells you about this idea?

@BeautyHeroine 9 лет назад

Charles Botensten oh really, are you? my general topic is finding an creating my passion, overcoming fear and being happy and accepting. haha, sounds weird written like this. so what do you recommend?

@judilopez1811 5 лет назад

Guuuurl! You are NOT alone. I'm single too, no family, and not many friends. I am a manager (so I cant hang out with people I work with) and I lost touch with friends over the years cause I was in school full time and work full time. Now, it's like now what? I have been depressed and sleeping all day, but I'm trying to snap myself out of it. Sadly, I'm just going to say it, the ugly truth. I'm fat and let myself go cause of being in school. I mean hell...do I want anyone to see naked?!!! Hell No! So I'm starting back to gym, and getting my sexy back. This is all scientific. Biologically, men are visual creatures and yes, chimps....( lol, but I love them) but what I'm trying to say is be date ready, and someone you'd want to date.....(dont you love how I'm giving advice and I'm in relationship hell🤣!!!) But, what I'm trying to say is feel good about yourself and be your best version-inside out.....and my dad always said look your best! I think you and I need to get our sexy back, which leads to confidence, oh and good health, and better mental health. People like attractive people and want to he near them....its biological. And I have been studying human behavior. We all love happy, good looking people....so we need to be one. I'm making my to do list, like gym, running, journaling, photography which by the way helps me kick start lots of conversations with random people when they see my camera around my neck., oh and I'm reading! And I also am telling God that I need his help, and it's in his hands....but to please send me angel soon, cause I dont want to be alone. But till my angel appears ( and that wont be me sitting at home watching Netflix) I will make myself happy. I get up early, plan my weekend with fun activities that I like....I'm actually learning a lot about myself. I'm not going to lie, I just started this personal program and it's kinda working. I also try not to think about relationships....I Believe I will meet someone when its time. Oh and I love Matthew Hussey. Damn he is on point with game! And yes we gotta get game. Men are hunters, biologically speaking. So, we should study his advice, couldn't hurt, and shit....its a plan and we have a goal (a perfect man) . I hope my advice helps. You sounded sad. I just want you to know you are not alone. We are not alone. But aren't we all alone? And we start alone, and most of us will get old and die alone. So maybe we need to be independent, happy single women and just be grateful. P.s. I have no idea what I'm ranting, but just know many of us are single, and I totally understand how you feel....all love💜💛xxxx

@amandabellamae8587 4 года назад

It’s definitely finding yourself & coming back “home” to who you really are for me. As a single mum of two, clairsentient & healer, I can be guilty of sacrificing things I shouldn’t compromise to be there for others, and wearing myself thin doing way too damn much. In a relationship my personal standards as well as standards for the guy I may be in a relationship with, they quit being concrete & become “pliable”... then you feel bad cuz you’re not doing what you know you need to do to keep yourself confident & happy, then the fact you’re not feeling your best leaks out onto the people you love & are supposedly sacrificing things so you can be better for them... IRONICALLY ENOUGH that has the opposite effect because I get cranky when I know I can’t be compromising my workouts, horseback riding, meditation, etc... and expect to remain that same high energy, goofball of a mom, partner & friend that people fell in love with from the beginning. Lol

@elizabethnepia8878 6 лет назад

That point about being a morning person is so relevant to me at this point in my life, lately my friends and I have gone out every friday night for about 2 months straight and gradually and gradually I just became more and more reluctant to go out and it actually made me so much more unhappy. I felt like those nights out were like a waste of a weekend. I only thought about this recently since I started declining on going out. I now have so much more time ro spend on myself and things I love doing. Loved the video guys! 😊

@privateuser3366 3 года назад

Living my life with the purpose of loving myself more and more with each step! Being single gives me the time and space to make my day as much about myself and my interests as possible- I want to cherish that time while I have it.

@anewloveofficial9137 6 лет назад

After being in a toxic relationship, I realized that I love being single. There's more to life than being sad and suffer for a relationship that isn't right. I just love the freedom that I have now but I'm still open to the fact that I can find the right man who will never be tired of loving me.

@karenquehl6869 3 года назад

You both know so much about life and relationships. I have come through two abusive marriages but through it all kept doing and embellishing the things I loved to do on my own. Kept gathering new friendships as well. In the end I left both marriages far behind. Companionship is what I found outside marriage. I grew up in a generation that believed you had to get married and have children. I did that. But now have so much more fun being single. More time to do what I love to do. Friends have always told me they love having me in their life because I make things happen. Friends now say, do you really like going by yourself? Oh yes indeed. An example for me was taking myself to see Adele in Toronto in the summer of 2017 in Toronto, Canada. At the end of that summer I ran from the second marriage. At this concert I sat between two couples of amazing people. Being by myself I engaged in fabulous conversations. I always try to learn about others. If I come away from a conversation and only can hear my voice I have lost out. On one side of me was a mother and daughter. The mother got the tickets because her daughter adores Adele and knew every word she sang. Me too!! On the other side was a young couple celebrating an anniversary. The husband got tickets and was giving her a romantic weekend. I congratulated him on listening to her and giving her this concert. Fortunately I had a true feminist for a mother. She infused in me to be your own person, own career, own activities and always give back to your community. I am setting an example for both my young granddaughters, 7 and 11. Matthew I just listened to another talk you gave about companionship. Thank you both for your wisdom. It is Thanksgiving in Canada today. Time to celebrate all you share with me. Oh yes even with covid I recently went to an outdoor cabaret in Stratford Ontario and heard a song, Live Alone and Like It! Cyrille Amiee! Enjoy!

When I am single, I often learn a new skill, dive into personal development through a lot of reflection and improve myself at work! That is what I am doing now! However, I have to say I am still so bad in dealing with loneliness at night.

I am trying not to be afraid of being on my own - with my own thougths. And if I make myself anxious, missing him, or digging through good memories (basically torturing myself) I am learning how to calm myself, without relying on friends or family. Because they can't be there forever 24/7. :)

@DarleneSterling 9 лет назад

This was so great...being single for a while, I really haven't embraced my single-dom to the fullest. I know for myself that I don't want to be in a relationship until I am happy with my own life. Just like you said at the beginning men prefer a woman who has goals not someone who a man needs to save. I'm not saving accomplishing all my goals but the actual feeling of happiness and gratitude in who I am. I refuse to have a man save me or feel like without him I am unable to create the life I want, been there done that. I am much older and wiser. Great video. I'm glad you and Lewis connected, I love his channel as well.

@ellikingsley9585 7 лет назад

One thing to love being single? Find ways to serve others. It will change every bad day into a good day. Whether that is volunteering in the community, serving in your church, taking someone in need out to lunch... putting others first takes the focus off of yourself and changes perspective.

@sneakergirl171 8 лет назад

One thing I can do for myself to enjoy being single more is, romance myself. I love love love romance! The longing for that with a man can be overwhelming at times. I think if I started to do more things for myself that I previously considered unnecessary, like getting a massage, or going out to a fancy dinner, would allow me to fill that void. So when a guy comes into my life, I will have a higher standard and I will be able to really reflect and see whether he adds real value to my life or not.

@darcyturner288 7 лет назад

Being alone is a reality for many people, some times choose, sometimes it was all that was possible. It is also ok to live with our own company, to embrace solitude, to stop aiming for a company that won't happen. For some of us, perhaps for the best...🍻

@joyejohnsonauthor 7 лет назад

One thing that helped me a lot is to do things that are best done alone. I write books and practice ballet, both require no one but myself. I like to do public things, but activities that don't need other people have turned out to be fulfilling. Plus they make me feel less lonely. I think another good thing is to take a break in the mate search. Take a month off and put meeting someone out of your mind. Last week I went to hear a swing band play at my 85-year-old friend's mobile home park and had a great time. I watched a documentary about Fellini on Netflix last night and found it funny and educational. I'm also getting into baking. Even though I've been single much longer than I wanted, I have to admit I have more self-worth because I've had the chance to challenge myself and figure out what I'm good at. Last bit of advice? Unfollow people on social media who brag about how blessed they are. Distance yourself from 'friends' who only keep you around to be the single sidekick. You'll know who they are when they put a damper on your ambitions or block you from something that might give you cool points. Most people get into relationships because they're in a race and don't want to get left behind, not because they are ready to share themselves with someone they love. Don't be afraid of being called out, just say 'I'm cutting back on the social media thing'. Don't apologize or explain. I've done this on several occasions and no one has had the nerve to ask why I stopped following them. On the other hand, I've started following magazines that feature my hobbies, also artists and other writers.
