100th like. Im 19 and from the UK. The only thing Im progressing in my life atm is the gym lol. My mum died last year of cancer, I dropped out of Uni, and my dad said I cant live at home, this past year has been pretty shit lol. But Im still happy because Im just doing what I love, gym and travelling. Sick video man you made me feel much better about what Im doing tbh. Cheers (edit) Ive also got shit all money but who cares :)
Never forget being in Thailand and getting a massage and giving the person my cap which they admired for the whole massage which cost me.€2. They were literally in tears. Dont take anything for granted
Not sure if you listen to any of Naval Ravikant but I thought his take on happiness on Joe Rogan podcast was interesting. "Peace is happiness at rest, and happiness is peace in motion. You can convert peace to happiness any time you want, but peace is want you want most of the time…If you’re a peaceful person, anything you do will be a happy activity."
Was watching a Jordan Peterson podcast and he summed it up in a way that was pretty deep. "Happiness is fleeting. Therefore aim at what is meaningful and happiness will come as a side effect." Best way I've seen it put so far.
Yeah JRE was the first time I had listened to him. Glad I did because I probably wouldn't have given him the time of day before that. Some of his tweets can seem a bit general & cliché, but when he talks he speaks real sense.
i've been following this guy for 6 years and goddamn has he been a consistent, positive influence in my life and has allowed me to grow as a person in a way no other fitness "influencer" has or could.
As someone entering their 20s, and as someone who does fear the unknown. I thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge, very rare to find real people like you.
Late to the party, which usually works out fine 😊….love the humble views. I’ve done a helluva lot in my 50+ years inc survive stage 4 cancer…the big one for me is being open to learning every day of your existence, including about yourself and your shadow. Great content Joe 👍
Honestly I’m so glad this channel exists. Our thoughts about life are so similar and its very rare day to day to speak/listen to someone on that level. Knowing you’re out there being a good bloke is comforting.
Love the fact that: He is speaking to us, like he did a 30-days-trial on Earth and came back & now leaving a review for us. Wise words from a young man.. We share the shame age, but your words are worth listening to & to learn from
wow, really insightful. i just graduated college and immediately started work as an engineer. i should be happy (and while im grateful for my current situation), i cant help but question my happiness and ask "is this really it?" ive been questioning my life path and it was fate to see this video on my homepage. thanks for your wise words dude.
I absolutely agree with your regards towards self-reflection. We tend to try to ignore the things impacting us, especially if they affect us negatively mentally, and it's important to take a step back and analyse why we feel a certain way.
Lad I’m 31 and still in the same position. Learning something new and trying new things always helps. Your only 19 that’s still very young just make sure you go to bed smarter every day. Read books, try new things that add value to your life don’t just piss your money up the wall, save as much as you can and invest it back into yourself
1) Choose your own path ~ 1:49 2) It’s all relevant ~ 4:35 3) Go meta on yourself ~ 9:03 4) Happiness is a skill ~ 12:49 5) You’re always learning ~ 14:30 6) How > What ~ 16:57 7) It’s all about context ~ 19:21
Joey D needs to bring back a school of Stoicism. His philosophical balanced outlook is always sound advice. I wish when i was 19 i could have had Joey D's videos to watch.
I'm 17, currently doing A levels and a part time job. My dad has COPD and TB which requires regular care. Thanks to your videos, ive been going to gym a lot and making myself happier.
Felt lots of these things really hit, it's like you're sitting right next to me and spectating everything and just letting me know I'm on the right path. Appreciate the video man, safe travels
Number 6, this is so true. I definitely get hung up on the "what". I've had loads of interests over the years which makes it hard to decide what I want to do. Makes sense to just commit, put the effort in and find out along the way.
I don't have the words to explain to you how much I understand and relate to you mate. ive experienced so much of what you said but never had the words you've got to put it out in the world. you have such a gift of putting thoughts like that into words its incredible.
23, currently finishing both an Electrical & Computer Engineering degree and a Sports Science one in university. Tons of work but life's better than ever. I got no clue of what I am doing you could say. It is how, not what. Thanks Joe ✌
6 hit me pretty hard. Recently graduated and I've had plans for years on what my 'path' would be but I've been comparing different paths now and i'm wrought with indecision.
Number three applies to me.Your words are a guideline on life-in a nutshell.Thanks ! But the one on 29-belated Happy Birthday ! A benefit to your fitness-mind and body-is that one can perceive you to be maybe 24 or 25 yrs young ! Thats the benefit of Fitness ! Cheers Mate !
Almost 60 and still trying to figure life out. But I do lead a happy life. I have positive thoughts and keep myself always looking up. Much thanks for having great friends
I think you've learned a lot about being connected with yourself and what really matters in life, and how to apply that knowledge, and not yet 30. I'd say you're future is going to be amazing.
Absolute killer video man. I'm 19 and its always good to get some context and the perspective from someone who has done the hard yards and been in the trenches of self improvement. Lots of great points that add a few more pieces to my every growing puzzle. Keep up the good shit man love your work, instasub from this vid alone.
Great vid. The last ones spot on, as well with not having complete certainty that the scenario has unfolded the way it has due to your actions or sheer chance. Its almost like gambling, you can improve your chances to do well with smart betting but at the end of the day it's still random. Another thing you mentioned about too many choices being bad I fully agree with. It closes you off to new experiences/ideas you wouldnt have exposed yourself to and from my own experience there's many times I've had to do things I wouldn't choose to do which have had a really positive impact a few years down the line even if they seemed completely pointless at the time.
Great and chilled to listen to Joe. Bet it is great having some on your best years on camera I.e holidays and travels etc. At 29 you're still a spring chicken so still loads of exciting times ahead. Happy belated birthday and cheers for the wisdom 😁
Thank you. You're just as likely to know "fuck all" just like every other person on this planet so don't worry about it bro, while I agree you should always look to improve and learn more, the shit you said here seems pretty valid! Especially for a 29 year old. I'm 20 and this was useful!
Wow Joe.... this is the first video of yours that I have watched. Your video spoke volumes to me and I really agree with everything you said. I don't think you give yourself enough credit, I think you are wise beyond your years. Thanks so much for making this video. You seem like such a genuine, nice guy. I wish we were friends haha, you are definitely on my wave lenght. Much love from Ireland, Aoife x
Thank you for your honesty and insight. I've drawn a lot of parallels between your experiences and my own (I'm sure a lot of us have). However, I still learned quite a lot from this video. I will be turning 29 in a month. I agree with you - to not to get too caught up in making the "right" choices. I can get overwhelmed doing that too much.
stoicism is very similar way of living although your way of living is a less extreme version of this and more a realistic way of living for longevity in today’s society
Joe that was great man thoroughly enjoyed watching and thinking about all the points you mentioned the third person perspective was the one that I could relate to the most, you are much much wiser than you think, enjoy the rest of your weekend.
This year has been pretty bad for me. GF dumped and cheated on me with my younger brother, house got robbed and my sentimental possession were stolen, got fired from my baking job because I was five mins late too often, someone vandalized my car and graphite on it and now to top it all off i'm turning 30 in a couple of weeks. I'm still happy because I have my health and my home gym and i'm still making gains.
9:45 i'M GLAD I recognised that thinking twice and 'scaling' my first thoughts, to then polishing it for a better version of expressing the thoughts happened at 18 years old maturity is key no matter how young you think you areXD
A lesson learned should be a lesson shared, cheers. Re #6 about "How" being more important than "What", I'd add the additional "Why" to provide another layer of depth. Nietzsche used to say "He who has a why can bear almost any how." Really important to be aware of what is driving our decisions, which more often than not turns out to be different to what we believed.
Hey Joey, thanks for sharing your thoughts. Always good to get some perspective from another fellow human being. I think you & Diddy could get a very viable podcast going on. Maybe one day ;) peace from Belgium
Thanks Joey D, just split up with my gf of 8 years (just before proposing) who basically only wanted attention for her depression and someone to moan at instead of actually making any changes to improve her situation (one of those that always has an excuse for anything) and after a month she's already found a new crutch to lean on which feels pretty fucking shitty but these videos really help me make sense of life and not being able to change others etc and living your own path vs living to help others when they won't help themselves
fuckinng great channel.. been binging on ur vids and respect your philosophy in life specially because I see you actually made something out of your life, not just fitness but youtube and travelling. Keep em coming, some need to hear these things
Just turned 21, like 2 and a half months ago and I will honestly say looking back I didn't appreciate a lot of my life, definitely going to try and work on this
if i could choose between having your wisdom or having your physique, honestly i'd choose your physique because you look sick man, but your wisdom is a close second! you earned a sub!
What's happenin' people. Just a random one I felt like slammin' up. Enjoy, like, dislike, converse in the comments, ignore, do whatever the fuuuck you wanna do.
become red pilled fast
that's some real joe d wisdom right there. thx for sharing
Any chance you could list the books you derived this wisdom from mate? Would be interested in giving them a read
Yes lad. Hodge twins are quality.
Joe Delaney on immediate happiness i would say a secret I learnt from the book “an extraordinary mind” is gratitude forgiveness and compassion
1: Choose your own path.
2. Everything is relative
3. Go Meta on yourself
4. Happiness is a skill
5. You're always learning
6. How is more important than what
7. It's all about context
I think I'm so dumb that i need context to understand
would 100% be the best guy to chat to in the smoking area whilst you're pingin haaha
would probably give me the fear man would much rather not be pingin hahaha
Hi everyone, I do drugs!
@@psalm1.0 NOT THE FEAR haha.
Many a feel has been shared with bros in the smoking area
Joey D is the most philosophical and wise ‘fitness influencer’
100th like. Im 19 and from the UK. The only thing Im progressing in my life atm is the gym lol. My mum died last year of cancer, I dropped out of Uni, and my dad said I cant live at home, this past year has been pretty shit lol. But Im still happy because Im just doing what I love, gym and travelling. Sick video man you made me feel much better about what Im doing tbh. Cheers (edit) Ive also got shit all money but who cares :)
Keep going brother!
Keep going man u will get through the circumstances and u will be in a better position to face any future challenges. Stay focused u got this!
That’s sad. Good luck with your life man
You are going to fucking make it man
@Sam - Damn, good luck mate ✌️
Never forget being in Thailand and getting a massage and giving the person my cap which they admired for the whole massage which cost me.€2. They were literally in tears. Dont take anything for granted
did you get a happy ending with that lol
@@AlfredTheBrave asking the important questions here
@@AlfredTheBrave Lmao
Not sure if you listen to any of Naval Ravikant but I thought his take on happiness on Joe Rogan podcast was interesting.
"Peace is happiness at rest, and happiness is peace in motion. You can convert peace to happiness any time you want, but peace is want you want most of the time…If you’re a peaceful person, anything you do will be a happy activity."
Joe posted on his IG recommending it, I wouldn't have listened to it otherwise. Such a good podcast!
Never thought i was gonna see naval mentioned in a Joe video
Was watching a Jordan Peterson podcast and he summed it up in a way that was pretty deep. "Happiness is fleeting. Therefore aim at what is meaningful and happiness will come as a side effect." Best way I've seen it put so far.
Yeah JRE was the first time I had listened to him. Glad I did because I probably wouldn't have given him the time of day before that. Some of his tweets can seem a bit general & cliché, but when he talks he speaks real sense.
Hope you keep doing videos for another 29years..grandad bundyy
i've been following this guy for 6 years and goddamn has he been a consistent, positive influence in my life and has allowed me to grow as a person in a way no other fitness "influencer" has or could.
As someone entering their 20s, and as someone who does fear the unknown. I thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge, very rare to find real people like you.
Needed this advice. 21 yrs old... Joe you're a legend
Joe's perfect for an afters when you're bolted at 4 in the morning
You’re a sick guy joe, a pool of knowledge.

I absolutely agree with your regards towards self-reflection. We tend to try to ignore the things impacting us, especially if they affect us negatively mentally, and it's important to take a step back and analyse why we feel a certain way.
the moment you said 'fulfillment and shit'' i knew that i could relate to you
Why doesn’t Joey D have his own podcast about life and self improvement ?! Or even better his own festival, filled with techno and good vibes man
joe every single one of your words connects with me on a ridiculously spiritual level
lol this came right when i needed it, im 19 and i dunno how to life my life at all
20 can relate 100%
Same man. Good thing is at 19, were young enough to take chances and still have enough time to get shit together if we fail.
Turning 24 and still lost af bruh
21 finished a business degree and I have no idea what to do

Joey D, such a knowledgable person
''Just being aware really helps'' - absolutely. This is the beginning to everything honestly
1) Choose your own path ~ 1:49
2) It’s all relevant ~ 4:35
3) Go meta on yourself ~ 9:03
4) Happiness is a skill ~ 12:49

Felt lots of these things really hit, it's like you're sitting right next to me and spectating everything and just letting me know I'm on the right path. Appreciate the video man, safe travels
like how you speak like an actual person and are super real with everything. cheers man

23, currently finishing both an Electrical & Computer Engineering degree and a Sports Science one in university. Tons of work but life's better than ever. I got no clue of what I am doing you could say. It is how, not what. Thanks Joe ✌
6 hit me pretty hard. Recently graduated and I've had plans for years on what my 'path' would be but I've been comparing different paths now and i'm wrought with indecision.
Not sure if Joey D, or the Dalai Lama.
Magnus S the Delaney llama
Skiandtravel the Dellama
why?
What you said at the end of the video was so spot on.
Its scary how come I'm nearly 29 and while listening to you I came up to the same conclusions. Agree hundred percent with everything said. Good work
Number three applies to me.Your words are a guideline on life-in a nutshell.Thanks ! But the one on 29-belated Happy Birthday ! A benefit to your fitness-mind and body-is that one can perceive you to be maybe 24 or 25 yrs young ! Thats the benefit of Fitness ! Cheers Mate !
These are the best type of videos! Definitely do more of these mate... a lot of good information for people to reflect on 👌🏼
Nobody: what is life ?
Joe Delaney: hold my protein shake...
dope video man, love the final point - context is key and rules for life often end up bogging one down instead of benefitting someone
Best Joey D vid
Thanks for verbalizing your thoughts, and for allowing them to be out in the open, to criticism and agreement. Life is about this.
Thanks for the video man! Just hit 21 and watching this definitely helped form some new perspective and ways of looking at life. Keep motivating 💪
Almost 60 and still trying to figure life out. But I do lead a happy life. I have positive thoughts and keep myself always looking up. Much thanks for having great friends
This was exactly what I needed to watch during these strange, life questioning and unprecedented times. Cheers for that.
I think you've learned a lot about being connected with yourself and what really matters in life, and how to apply that knowledge, and not yet 30. I'd say you're future is going to be amazing.

FUUUUCKING HELL MAN I love you. I'm 19 and I think a lot about this. It's rare I meet someone that'shares so much of my priorities. I love you man!!
Great vid. The last ones spot on, as well with not having complete certainty that the scenario has unfolded the way it has due to your actions or sheer chance. Its almost like gambling, you can improve your chances to do well with smart betting but at the end of the day it's still random.

This is why it is vitally important to set yourself realistic goals to have a better chance at feeling good more often
Spreading good insights and positivity my friend - keeping it real always 💕
Dropping those truths, sick video as always 🙌
Top 3 joey d vids
I get yelled at for swearing on my channel...I applaud you for doing it your way...fuck em
Great and chilled to listen to Joe. Bet it is great having some on your best years on camera I.e holidays and travels etc. At 29 you're still a spring chicken so still loads of exciting times ahead. Happy belated birthday and cheers for the wisdom 😁
This made me realise a lot about myself, how far I've come and how far I've got to go still. Insane amounts of respect for you Joe
creased at the Instagram caption analogy. spot on
Joey D is a proper top bloke
You’re a cool dude. Keep it RAD.
26 and needed this
Had me at the first point mate, I completely agree. Good shit.
Thank you. You're just as likely to know "fuck all" just like every other person on this planet so don't worry about it bro, while I agree you should always look to improve and learn more, the shit you said here seems pretty valid! Especially for a 29 year old. I'm 20 and this was useful!
Aristoteles, Platon, Kant, descartes, Rousseau, Karl Marx... JOE fucking DELANEY!!
love your vibes, mate!! goddammit
Wow Joe.... this is the first video of yours that I have watched. Your video spoke volumes to me and I really agree with everything you said.

some of the realest shit I've ever heard. Super informative man, keep it up !
Commenting because I really hope this starts getting pushed to people again.
Every single word made sense. Wisdom couldn’t of come at a better time
Great video brother. Keep it up.
Definitely provided me with great value. I enjoy these types of vids.
I'm 29 and I can totally relate to this!!! Great Story!

“You’re not the character anymore, you’re controlling the character”.
first time listening to your vlogs, keepin it real mate. Happy bday!

Quality information right here, definitely upload more like this
“It doesn’t fit into a box” - never a truer word.
