i think you are right, and i make croissants for living.😅
🤣
That's some Tate philosophy
@@Iron_Willedhopefully Tate and zahabi can talk one day
💀
@@CoachZahabi If one's only vice is croissant and ice cream, doing pretty well these days.
Look man... people will not understand what you are saying, but I get it.
I feel the same way about small suffering. If I have a choice of walking up stairs right next to an escalator, I take the stairs. If its well below freezing in Chicago, and I'm on the train station, I do not stand under those little heaters.
None of this is major, but its choosing not to partake in the easiest or most pleasurable path at all times.
Dude, croissants are water, flour, butter, and heat. What the hell here?
@@mat..n.7061youre missing the point but thats ok just try reading it again
If you always take the most comfortable path you get a low tolerance to discomfort
I hope this is just elaborate satire. A man literally boasting about standing in the cold when he has the option of warmth 👏
@@pjauthur9869 it would only seem satire to a person who didn't understand the entire concept of this video
Reminds me of Khabib saying: Too much romantic movie makes your heart weak 😂
Iconic line that I live by to this day 😂
It's actually true. If you watch/listen to too much sentimental stuff you become overly emotional.
Too much laughter hardens the heart - Prophet Muhammad
Yes he did say that women will destroy u aswell
@@KD400_He never said that
Come on coach you're killing me, I LOVE ME CROISSANTS 😭
Make a croissant kulfi then lol
@goldengully quit being weak.
I will expect a croissant video soon. 😉
Do you train Gully?
We need that croissant kulfi
Just make them with some gravel inside. Then they'll make you more manly
Firas "my son's can't eat croissant" Zahabi🙏🔥💪
I am french I eat re croissants every Saturday or sunday, usually with a glass of orange juice and chocolate. I will think about Firas next time I eat a croissant Haha
😂
@@CoachZahabicoach, I’m surprised you don’t read more fiction. You make a great argument for the value of art to be a lie that tells the truth and yet seem to neglect it. I think you would love the short stories of borges and obviously the novels of Dosteyvsky if you aren’t already familiar with them. I’m often disappointed that many of my friends in philosophy are badly read in fiction, and my literature major friends badly read in philosophy. The two complement beautifully
Chocolate and orange juice first thing would destroy my stomach and make me a little b(***** beta boy! Oatmeal too! Yikes!
I remember a couple of years I was fasting and going on a hike with my wife and some friends. I happened to be the only fasting that day, because my wife was on her time of the month and the others were not Muslim. It was summer, so the days were ling and hot.... she asked me why I would do this hike while fasting. I told her, "A little bit of struggle never hurt anyone. It only makes you stronger."
Also, I work a government job, so I need something to challenge me other than work so I lift heavy weights and do bjj.
Wow what a great story we are so proud of you
You a g may allah make you stronger
cool
That's nothing I do that everyday
@kinggirth8599 Good for you! Not everyone does that every day like you, so for some of us, it may be kinda hard.
Diet is the toughest part of the game for me.
Jack LaLanne said, "if man makes it, don't eat it and if it tastes good, spit it out."
Great message. Suffering makes you strong. We live in an era of weakness and overindulgence unlike any in human history. Weak men create weak times and I doubt that many Americans could handle what inevitably will happen. Hard times are always right around the corner. Prepare accordingly.
@@vaevictious”What does not kill you makes you stronger.” Also what you said makes no sense.. you act as if the enlightened monk didn’t suffer to gain his wisdom. Suffering for a purpose is what builds strength, and understanding.
@@priley817you dont need to Excell to the truth you only need to remember the truth , as we are all knowing and allbeing under the multidimensional hypnosis that engulfs mankind. Unraveling the lies hurt , the truth doesnt. You cant be stronger than you already are becuse youre already everything and omnipotent.
@@priley817 that which you lose youll gain and that which you gain youll lose in the eternal cycles of reincarnation , your memories wiped clean and all the the years you spent to subdue / ease the suffering are rendered docile and so the rat race begins a new again - you suffer endlessly. Unless you remember who are.
@@priley817@priley817 you dont need to Excell to the truth you only need to remember the truth , as we are all knowing and allbeing under the multidimensional hypnosis that engulfs mankind. Unraveling the lies hurt , the truth doesnt. You cant be stronger than you already are becuse youre already everything and omnipotent.
Unraveling the lies hurt but the truth doesnt. We dont Excel to the truth becuse time and evolution is an illusion dependendant upon the the majority of what the subconsiousness holds to be true. We are already all knowing and allbeing under the Gulf of hypnosis that humanity are entranced with and as such we only have to remember who we are. Again its not a matter of growing its a matter of remembering. Your insulting your spirit with your luciferic philosophy and doctrine.
Needed this coach, thank you
All the discipline and self control can be summoned awakening the innate sense we have in us. Ramadan is one way. You badly want to eat and drink thirsty yet you refrain you train yourself to exercise patience self control and you slowly begin to adapt to it. By day 10 its routine. When im on mile 12 and gassing out i remember that i can do this cause i have the abilty to adapt.
Another is Salah. When its cold and dark and the world is snoozing you get up and you are tired but you make salah you leave your comfort evrry day nothing is sweeter than this.
Coach dropping amazing wisdom!
I clicked at the video just bc of the title
And bc i love eating Croissant 😂
Same here. Bread is my weakness. Lol
The way your body needs a rest day, so does your mind. Eating that croissant, as a treat, is your minds rest day.
Yeah somewhere there is a man taking no rest day… and he will destory you.
@@priley817 you're talking about practice" - Allen Iverson. What does a lion do all day every day for the most part? Rest!
I was just looking for a book to read, thanks man, I also appreciate the talking about life philosophy
I'd recommend the book "Blueprint" (Nicholas Christakis; non-fiction). It's a very complex scientific book but it paints a more nuanced picture of human social collectives and hierarchies, and how/when they emerge. "Lord of the Flies" is just one of the more grim potentialities of how we organize in human society. (Although it's undeniable that this case occurs far too often in human society).
I remember reading about a story where a group of boys actually got stranded on a deserted island, turns out they work together and didnt kill eachother at all!
It's kind of hilarious firas has a philosophy degree and misses the point of the book. There are good people on the island but they are weak. Piggy. The theme is that we need strong men with good values or evil will triumph. It's not about the fucking business world lmao.
Salam coach, do more of the story telling like these please!!! more philosophy, religion, ideas, books. please please please !
4:55 unless your business is so large it’s “too big to fail”, then if you mess up you are just bailed out. We live in a world of socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor
BS my friend, every company you know now will eventually fail. History always repeats, although you there is truth in the low chance of failing when you are a very big company.
Has there ever been a company thats persisted since 0 AD? I dont think so lmao. Every country will fail, every nation, every company, every group they will all die out and be forgotten
@@Whatdothenumbersmeanto be fair, companies weren’t a thing in 0 A.D
Adding to your words, There is an Arabic say I remembered
"أخشوشنوا فإن النعم لا تدوم."
I think it means "Live a rough life because favors do not last forever."
It's a saying of Umar (R.A) the second rightly guided caliph. Be rugged/tough because blessings do not last forever.
The Croissant isn’t what makes kids soft it’s the air conditioning.
Nah, it's the croissant.
Its porn g
You're all right 😂
😂😂😂
I understand the sentiment. I would make sure, as much as there is to learn from the Spartans, that there is a warning on the other side; most of their history and culture are gone. It was not essential for their way of life to preserve their ways for the future. The lesson today is to make sure that we are raising warriors instead of soldiers. Warriors innovate, soldiers obey. Soldiers fight from orders, warriors fight from principles. It is a difficult Way.
Spartans were also homosexuals
@@varavarala313Propaganda, not a single real painting or drawing depicts this being allowed
@@FreeFlocka-pk6hv either way, who cares? Every smart person knows every human has masculine and feminine.
They maybe just didn't know how to express feminine.
Very insightful point about the soldier essentially going to do what the kids were doing on the island. I never made that connection myself from reading the book and watching the movie. As a former soldier myself who saw combat, I look back on it all now and see we were all just dumb kids.
I am French, living in France, and I totally agree with you, coach !!!!
I see this as a spectrum rather than black or white. You need to train yourself to be tough, in whatever way that is expressed, so that when you need it, it is always there. I'm a little disappointed that you don't share the same ideals to your daughter. I believe, in life, everyone needs a degree of toughness to endure any kind of difficulties that may come up. However, I won't go as far as to no show sign of comfort. It's a balance. And the reality is that we don't live in the age of Spartans anymore, we haven't for many many years.
I definitely do share the same ideals with my daughter however I go about it in a very different way. Yes definitely a spectrum that needs to be balanced.
@@CoachZahabiwhy do you let your daughter eat luxurious foods but not your son's? From this video above you have quite clearly said that you are teaching your sons to be tough and disciplined but not your daughter. Are you teaching her to be overly reliant on men to provide her with resources? That is your prerogative as a father however it seems quite incompatible with larger culture
@@pjauthur9869 If his daughter gets married to a practicing Muslim like Zahabi himself, then she will never need to provide for her own. I think Zahabi is preparing her for that.
@@olegnurmagomedov750 that doesnt seem optimal, what if she cant find a man who is like her father?
@@pjauthur9869 Yeah then she is in real trouble for the rest of her life. I guess her brothers will be responsible for everything related to her in case her husband is lacking.
I can eat a cossaint for breakfast and still dominate. If what you eat changes your focus then you're already weak.
Let’s see the belt
You missed that opportunity to become stronger tho..
Domination and strength are not always equal. Think about it
@@colbynewton8591George got the belt and loves crossaint
Jon Jones did coke before fights and still dominated. If cocaine changes your focus, then you're already weak.
Bros a good dad fr fr💪💪
I fully believe in this. My father gained success in my later teenage years and shared it with me, he allowed me many “croissant” as he allowed himself. I feel like my mindset weakened compared to the struggle I grew up with as I had not earned these luxuries my self. Took much work and struggle to regain the mind I had.
Ps no judgment to my father, he grew up horribly and wanted to show me something better 🙏🏼
Brother Firas, I've grown used to a very undisciplined and indulgent life and am very conscious of this. I realise this is the result of an accumulation of many small mistakes. Ive been trying to be more disciplined and less indulgent, however im having a lot of trouble building a routine again like I had pre covid, gym + fasting for one. Im trying to be patient with myself because I don't expect I can go back to that overnight, at the same time I feel like I take 1 step forward 2 steps back. What do you think? Am muslim and do pray, don't get up for fajr and pray when I wake up which has made it very clear to me that im living a bad life.
croissant, eggs, bacon and protein fruit/veggie smoothie breakfast. it's the only non-keto part of my diet.
love ❤ croissants!
love these vids man
I come here for the perfect mix of madness and genius.
Mashallah......Ramadan Mubarak brother!
I agree coach. The first time I had a real croissant was after I got out of the military. I still feel like I didn’t earn it, but it tasted damn good after waiting 26 years.
That's inasne. croissant is not even that good so many better snacks out there.
@@JustChill-zd4ib It's good considering it's just buttery bread
I am very fascinated how much you know about my ancestors, sir. Especially that epic podcast you had with Joe Rogan years ago. I'd love to meet you as I've been in the special forces and we were taught the life of being a Spartan vs Athenian vs Macedonian. Love what you do, sir! Many thanks!
thank you and would be great to meet you. Come visit sometime.
Wow interesting analysis, read it a few years ago, but didnt really take it in the same way you have!
I hear you coach. I understand where you're coming from.
Smart man👍🏾
This video kept getting recommended to me and after 3 weeks im finally ready to listen to Firas tell me why I shouldnt eat croissants
I must say, you're like an older brother I never had, such gems! May Allah reward you for your efforts 🤲
Amen to this
at least u have good logic and spend time with the kids. my dad never got us anything good just cuz he didn't have those as a kid -_-
i used to walk past nice restaurants just to smell the food and i'd be happy.
As usual, coach makes a lot of sense..
Just as good if not better advice than Jordan Peterson..
tough love.. a father's duty.. Oss
Bacon egg and cheese croissant addict here I need help
Oh yeah, Tim hortons all day lol
great dad!
May allah protect this brother 🤲🏽
Coach, hope you’re well. Can you recommend any solid jiu jitsu dojos in London from a complete beginner (I did Kendo for a year)
Sorry coach...going to Sicily soon. Pistacchio cornetto every day.
you're a great father
I agree with this 💪💪
Dang, this is deep!
Very True Sir
When those lads grow up, they’re gonna eat lots of croissants
Now I feel bad - not only do I love croissants - I indulge in chocolate croissants!!!
Shame 😂
I worked in government in the IT sector, you're 100% right. You can't fire somebody for incompetence, unless they break a big law you're not going to get them out of there. You have to wait for people to retire and go through so much red tape and bureaucracy and middle management, it takes forever to improve their systems
The true Man is revealed.
In difficult times.
I love this, man. Awesome. I am glad I never liked sweets.
So brutally honest and hysterical at the same time. I can’t stop laughing 😂
Coach firas, you're too good. I love watching your philosophy videos.
Croissant is a French fighter with a brown belt. It's amazing so many blackbelts are getting beaten down to a pulp by someone way below their weight class. It's mind-bageling.
I agree with your mindset but why are you giving them weak oatmeal.
Give them eggs and steak if you want them to be strong.
Showed the clip to my wife. She agreed. No croissants for our son^^ girls can indulge.
Makes no sense
This is just stupid. The better philosophy is " Dont do anything your child can do by themself" My kids know that if they ask me for help, I will say try again, try to you make it. Now they see everything as practice and know that if you work hard you will get it right. As for candy, I give them fruit and nuts. And somethimes pastry..
Wimpy philosopher: We don't eat Croissants because they weaken the mind.
Me, and intellectual: We don't eat Croissants because they're French.
Ouch that’s racist.
Not if it's against the French @@CoachZahabi
@@MrSagarcool14😂😂😂
@@CoachZahabifrench isnt a race

i love this, 99% of parents try to protect there kids, it’s not about protecting, it’s about preparing, especially for us boys.
Facts!
The autor of Lord of the flies was awarded with the nobel prize in literature
I disagree in letting women see suffering and enjoy spoils and not men. That's how we have such a misunderstanding in the first place even in our modern society. Let both learn and witness suffering in controlled doses so in adulthood they will have much better understanding.
Fully agree. How do you dial back this concept to fit daughters?
Professor firas all this talk of “cwoooisant” literally made me go out the next morning and buy one 🤦🏽♂️😂
I am laughing pretty hard about the way you describe what i am totally in for. Took me lots of years to realize that.
The point is true. Though I think it is a good thing to use as a reward. Not sure if i would be as strict. Maybe let them have one for purple and brown belt.
I don't know about croissants, but i like the idea of what he is trying to say. introduce a little bit of suffering and discomfort to your life. It is one of the reasons I choose to work standing up. I try to make myself at home with that discomfort
make svre yov get enovgh rest as well
Working standing up as a bizarre concept. Coming from like a labor background where we’re moving 8 to 10 hours a day lifting heavy stuff all day. Standing seems like the least you could do.
@@felipetejeda7545 i have to agree
Ask old people about discomfort and how much it taught them. Surely taught them to bitch and moan very well how sick they are.
This pumped me up too much, went and threw a recently purchased box of croissants from Costco straight into the trash. My daughter is going to be pissed tomorrow.
I'm sending this to France
Life is not 100% competition nor 100% communism. Life comprises competition and mutual help.
Agreed. I am for free market capitalism, but if a society is 100% competition based with no safety net, it produces too much wealth gap and the downtrodden, ultimately leading to collapse in the form of revolution or societal depression. My home country South Korea is extremely competitive, and as a result it made economic miracle in the past half century, but the youth are burnt out and hopeless, leading to having the lowest child birth rate in the world. A healthy economy is one where everyone can utilize their unique strengths to contribute to society and themselves, both the competent/ambitious and those that aren't, relatively speaking.
I agree we need to find a balance.
@@philjang747have you seen the alternative communism in North Korea on your neighbor . I would say the free market in the south is far better
@@Ace-xt8lvThey are no better
Bro, let me give you a word of advice. When your kids grow up without poverty they will never have that thirst or hunger. Its hard life that makes a man (most have it on easy mode). When you never have to worry about the roof over you head makes a BIG difference (kids feel n see this)
So what is the advice?
I would say that’s mostly true. I’ve also seen lots of people who both grew up rich and were very mentally and physically strong.
5:22 id like to add that some businesses depend on government subsidies and contacts. They are not the best or brightest. Its about who you know.
"The book is always better", truer words have never been spoken!
And yes, even, "The Godfather" is better as a book!
Someone said that, "Ageing is the aggressive pursuit of comfort".
Wow lord of the flies my favorite too
That explains a lot of things about the French.
Moderation.
Just bit into a croissant as I refreshed and this popped up
Yea I saw that movie when i was kid, was insane and scientists did a real experiment and it happened almost the same without the assasination part, Its like there are kids in human civilizations that can think like an adult or adult beasts, mini connor mcgregors.
This is the funniest Tristar video I have ever seen.
Very good movie
Fuck this hits hard. No more cheat meals
haven't heard a better description of a croissant than this one
Croissants are a great source of pre-gym carbs.
This is the only time I've felt something you said is completely absurd and baseless. 1) Croissant is not a "luxurious" food, it is a fairly plain breakfast bread which you have talked up far too much both here and to your sons. One day your son will achieve enough to receive a croissant, and he will say, "THAT'S IT???!" 2) Sparta was a slave society so please don't use Spartiatae as an example of being mentally tough. They didn't cook their own food, make their own clothes, work their own fields, forge their own swords and armor, stable their own horse, make their own beds, etc. They were outnumbered by the slaves whi waited on them hand-and-foot by as many as 50 to 1. If you study their history more closely you will find that, despite their few inspiring battles that have attained the status of legend, the Spartans had a losing record. Here is a link to a brief synopsis of some of the more famous of their many defeats: www.historyandheadlines.com/is-sparta-overrated-a-list-of-spartan-defeats/
They lost more battles than they won, and I ask you...where are they now? Conquered is where. Largely because of their extreme overdependence on slavery. What could possibly be more opulent than having a bunch of slaves do all the work you don't want to do? 3) THIS! ISN'T! SPARTA! *offers croissant* if I ever meet your kid I'm gonna give him a fucking croissant. What will you do to stop me? Kick my ass? This isn't Sparta, man...that's assault you would go to jail for a long time. A croissant, or even a thousand croissants, will have no such impact on your kids' development as your anxious fantasy would have you believe. 4) Just curious, what is GSP's take on the croissant?
I usually find you insightful, but this is sheer nonsense. You say croissant makes a lad soft? Ok...PROVE IT.
Read “Sparta and its Law” by Eduardo Velasco. Very different take on Sparta. Superior men of superior stock
@@mecateman that sounds like the standard unresearched take on Sparta.
I didn't "eat the croissant" until I was 39-40. I see his point, but it was also a miserable 40 years.
Nothing softer than pronouncing croissant in French when you’re speaking English lol
I read Lord of the Flies when I was 12. It opened my eyes to the reality of our world. Soon after I read 1984 and Brave New World. I became jaded by age 14 😂.
This is weirdly Canadian.
Firaz is Arabic enough to know the anti-Arab origins of the croissant in Larouuse's Gastronomique. Comme c'est français, dude.
Lord of the Flies is such a radical example of British social criticism.
That impossible synthesis of British and French is so Canadian. Or at least how I want to imagine Canadians to be.
had to watch with a title like this, i love croissants
He is right. You are what you eat. If you look at countries where men are generally lean you will find diet plays a part.
GSP loves a good croissant 🥋 🥐 👊
I would recommend read abundance by Peter Diamandis
my dad raised me to be tougher but several failed relationships with unhealthy girls have broken me down into a more emotionally fragile person. I'm 33 and feel like I'll never have a family at this point... how could i even hope to be a good dad who can step in harm's way on behalf of his family?
