Taj A I’m 18 with no parents and these podcasts have set me on the right path. I was exactly as Joey was as a kid since I was 16. These videos are underrated
Paperbag1124 Hope everyone who reads this knows you’re loved life is too short these headlines lately have been super sad can’t even go on social media anymore life is a great gift we all have the ability to live the exact life we want to live.
joey is sooooo right about getting out of the house...i decided to go to the beach for a freezing cold swim 20 mins from home 4:00am in the morning to get over lack of motivation and boost dopamine / immune system ..this not only replaced my 2-3 coffees in the morning before work at 6:30am but "aligned" me with me and now relationships are made easy and wealth just magically appears where i could'nt find it anywhere before - when comfort is put 1st - PAIN comes a close 2nd....now im on a roll and feel unstoppable and in complete control...nothing is stopping me now !!! nothing !!! GET OUT OF THE HOUSE ...what great advice.
Joey's so right. That includes us listening to him. Sure we can listen but let's be moving while we are or writing or doing something also. My wife's aunts father in law is 101 and still is lucid and drives. He tells us all the way to live long is to just move. Always stay active. He also said the couch will kill you.
I've been homeless for 1.5 years of the 3 years I've been out of my parents. I could sleep any day away... until I moved out. When your homeless in the summer you HAVE to move, especially if you live in your car, you'll die. 3 years later, now, I don't use an alarm, I don't even set it. I wake up with the sun, even if I can't see it. In the winter you wake up with the sun for warmth, in summer you wake up with the sun to find shade. After that becomes habit, then you get to enjoy the sunrise, because your ready for it. When you stop looking at the sunrise like the bell to get out of class, you start enjoying the sunrise, you grow up, and you move out.
"When i'd be at the bar playing those stupid pinball games, she'd walk over and take the quarters away and say that's enough! Go! Out! Go get hit by a car or something!" HAHAAHHAHAHAHAH!!!!!
I love how Joey makes sure Lee knows what his point really is, and stresses that he’s not putting Lee down at all. “Why would y-why would we? I’m not even putting the blame on you; why would WE?” I got endless respect for people who can own up to their mistakes and use themselves as an example for others.
My mom used to sing this song to me Uncle Joey..I'm saying when I was little and I haven't remembered since thirty years... she said "Good morning to you, good morning to you, were all in our places with bright shining faces...today is the day..to start a new day!" She sang that to me and I remembered just now. Your mother built a man that lived in this world with an effect on the world he lived in. It was her job Uncle Joey, and she succeeded. From the bottom to the point there's nothing you haven't done, and there's people that picked up from the splinters and it's because of you because of your mother. That was a beautiful woman Sir. Nothing but it. I hope I'm not outta line..
Joey is super right about putting that talent and dream into another avenue. I went to music school in Hollywood at MI. I attended the school for my drum set addiction lol after that, played in a hand full of local LA bands as well as a summer on the road. I realized I wasn't super stoked about playing live anymore. Decided to get into songwriting and production around 2016 or so. Ive never been happier writing my own material, getting real fuckin good at mixing and mastering. And looking to get some representation to shop some music =) Homie is ready to get paid!
Lee, you can be the guy to motivate because lots of these comments look out for Joey and we love to see your progress. Keep to your plan but you looking fly broski
Feel like I’ve been a couch potato the last few months. I had to take time off from school do to my program losing funding from Covid. I worked a couple substitute jobs but wasn’t satisfied but it did get me out of the house. And I feel like going back to school will be good for me. I love this video for reminding me.
Joey's past reminds me of mine, how I was drug dealing in NY, moved out of state cause the heat was on... then went completely clean. Its a good thing to remind yourself how dark things can get if you keep your eyes shut. Still smoking reefer, and now instead of being a very successful Pot/Exctasy/LSD/Shroom dealer, Im starting a legit service-based business, and still holding these crazy day jobs :) Thanks Joey!
@@JonMcAfee David Goggins may be the most inspiring man out of the lot. He lives by his code and inspires others to do the same. I suggest you look up his interviews online.
This is so true after my father passed I did less and less and now I can barely get anything done. I wish I knew how to improve this. It just feels like it too late now I gone too far. Ugh Im pathetic,Sorry all. So lame.
Literally every single day of my life for 8 years has been me sitting inside fucking around on the computer or the Xbox. I sleep 12 hours at a time, when I wake up I'm in bed for 3 or 4 hours on my phone and tablet watching RU-vid and playing Clash of Clans, I've tried waking up earlier and setting alarms to straighten it out but I always end up going back to sleep or napping later in the day and waking up at 2am. I absolutely hate what I'm doing right now but I can't stop, I feel stuck. I've been trying for a year on and off to figure myself out and stop this, but if I'm not lying, I'm content with this. I don't have a job, living with my parents getting extra money from welfare, life is nice, but I know this can't last. I'm losing myself, I'm not happy with the things I'm doing, yeah I'm content, but I'm not proud. I feel ashamed. I quit high school 7 credits short of graduating and I'm always telling myself how easy it would be to go back, and yeah, the course may be easy, but doing it is a part of it I haven't even considered the difficulty of. I've always been very prideful so I've never admitted anything like this, so I'm hoping throwing this out there will help me along my journey, but my god did I fuck myself up. I know there's a part of me trying but it just hasn't been able to win. I'm lost. I think I'll try going outside
i feel joey has def helped me change my life, but i feel like a lot of the things he says i don't feel like im capable to do it. i feel as if the things he says they are things that you wont understand until you do it. It's like i feel afraid to change.
100% agree. Everything he says makes a ton of sense, i just cant see or don't know how to apply them... kinda. I dont know its confusing lol. I guess we'll figure it out as we go 🤷🏻♂️👍🏼👍🏼.
It blows my mind how people can complain all day and not do anything with their lives…or go for their goals?! Like seriously…what are you waiting for?! It’s gonna just come to you!
that’s the same exact mentality I had in my youth… until I looked back and saw the amount of wasted years… hopefully you don’t have a family that will let you turn into a potato
Feel that 100% used to be the same 2 years ago, just remember “the worst thing in life is wasted talent” dont live a life of regret when you couldve thrived🤷🏻♂️ its all mindset
Getting outside and doing as little as walking your neighborhood does wonders for your body and mental state. And this is proven by scientist and doctors. And if you can, I’d recommend gardening but walk around your garden in bare feet. Your body goes thru a chemical change(for the better) the moment your bare feet hit the earth. They aren’t exactly sure why, but there’s been correlation with people who do that regularly and improved health, mental and/or physical
This is the single greatest piece of advice anyone can get whos looking for "self help" bullshit on youtube and it could kill the careers of Tony Robins, Gary Vee's social presence , All the no fap momos and any other self help bullshit that is just adding the the depression circle called "the youtube algorithm"
