“Do not force yourself into being miserable chasing an experience that doesn’t exist anymore” never sounded more applicable to what I’m trying to understand right now. I think i really should just go back to enjoy things that actually serve me. Thanks dude
I can’t tell you how much i appreciate the direction this channel has gone in. Coming off of the last couple of years I have lost over 120 pounds and dragged myself out of a really dark time. I read so many self help books and anxiety management tips that have culminated in the happiest times of my life so far. You have mentioned so many of the tactics I’ve used to “get myself back” and I can’t tell you how comforting it is to have these check ins each week. Keep up the great work!
@@dakotaohmer6012 I lost 90 myself and it's the best lifestyle change I ever made! It makes everything in life better, from work to games and everything in between. I'm happy for you!
Thank you very much, I appreciate you watching for so long. Those D1 days were so fun. Again thank you and I will definitely get out camping. This year I couldn't very much but next summer it's the gameplan
Right now my AC is broken I live in the south US it’s hot 7k to replace it but you know what for some reason no worries I know I’ll over come it just gotta put one foot after the other. My advice for intrusive thoughts of “this is too good to last” it’s the same thought. I can’t control that. Ups and downs are a part of it prepare as much as possible to avoid complacency and feel satisfaction in you’ve done all you can to weather any foreseeable storm anyway. You’re only a person there’s only so much you can do 🤝 thanks for another great one
Thank you and I'm so sorry. I just had a family member who had this happen, and it's like you said... insanely expensive to get it fixed. Hope a solution arrives quickly
@@BBKDRAGOON nah man thank you I discovered your channel recently with me getting back on TF|2 and honestly this pep talk vids couldn’t be coming at a better time. Thankful to have something lined up with an option as a backup in case that doesn’t work out.

90% of HVAC problems are the start/run capacitor failing. A $30 part. Check that before dropping dough on a new unit. Lots of yt vids on how to check it.

Thanks for creating a video specifically about this topic. I've been practicing this for a long time now and I'm quite puzzled why people don't use this kind of mentality. I'm glad it's getting seen by more people now. I just oversimplify it as: "Worried about something? Then fix it! Can't fix it? Then don't worry about it!" Though I understand that it is oftentimes easier said than done, but the simple act of trying to attain this mentality would already be very helpful to most.
I used to be someone who was pretty carefree about life, but as I am getting older and getting closer to 30, I have started to worry about my life and myself even more. I had a long relationship end last year and I haven't been the same since.. life is tough.. and it's hard when you don't have anyone to share it with.
Man I needed this so much. I’m at the state where I’m always working but want something for my free time and Im stuck with mobile games because I’m barely home. These games are incredibly predatory and I feel like I always lose interest or because I’m chasing that high of dopamine from playing games. I’m gonna calm down and read a book maybe go for a walk rn

One thing that took away a lot of stresses and anxieties from me was DnD. Its not that DnD allowed me to unwind, or let me hang out with my friends, or any external reason like that. DnD taught me to make the best of a situation, and not to dwell on either decisions or consequences. There are no save states in DnD, no going back and reversing a decision. This takes the pressure off of me to try to be the best, because there is no revision. It maybe a little grim for some, but the worst possible thing that could ever happen to you in DnD is that you die and lose your character. That's how I live my life now, the glass is always half full, until you've drank your last drop
Dear @BBKDRAGOON, I am a new sub to your channel and you are exactly what I need now. Born in 90s, been gaming since NES era. I owned almost every main line consoles. Now with PS5, series x and switch, until there's a military coup and civil war in my country and I had to flee, jumping countries from countries, depending on the visa availability. Needless to say, it's too much to handle mentally, too much anxiety, financially broke and can't go back home. I could only bring my switch with me and gaming has been my only escape. Contents like yours make me feel eased up a bit, makes me realize to take things slow and enjoy what I have at the moment. Keep up the good work, man, and thank you 🙏
All your videos matter. To me. Even ones not about mental health or anything, for example your videos on halo and what people want, even if they didn’t do anything to shape the games, made me feel like we really are a community. Like you thought and felt how I did. Thanks a lot😊
I really like the type of videos you make and this video kinda resembled and reminded me that I still em struggling with that as well. What helped me was very similar like you mentioned it, if you have an opinion about something, say it, tell others and let them at least know about it, if they will accept it or refuse it it's not under your control but you did enough. You know what you believe is the right thing and that's what matters the most. Of course you could be wrong and that's fine as well, we all learn but you stick to yourself and not forcing your opinions on anyone. Admit you not perfect, continue on growing but also have faith in yourself, believe in yourself and don't change just because of someone else opinion doesn't aline with yours. Treasure yourself, your time and make the best out today because that's all we have. Today
Absolutely love the shift your channel has made lately. Its been really refreshing and its been awesome to hear some really insightful and caring advice.
This channel is hitting me at the right time. I'm 22, working full time, and just started my first college semester. I vaguely remember watching you a lot during the H5-MCC days if I remember correctly, but I enjoy having a mature channel that's inline with both my values and interests.
I'm glad I stumbled across your channel. Really encouraging content. I also really struggle with this type of thinking. I was struggling with it particularly bad today. Obsessing over emotional damage that was done over 2 decades ago lol I am and have been ready to move on and let go for some time now but still struggle with this. I'm not even mad at the people anymore but moreso the dramatic impact that it had on my life. I have a phrase that i say to myself "the damge is done" whenever I've exhausted my cares for the day (as you put it). That's where i get really hung up and angry. Whats done is done but im still here, feeling the effects of stuff that happened to me a lifetime ago. Dont know what you believe but some of what you said lines up with some of Jesus's teachings. Phillipians 4:6, Luke 12:25-26 and mathew 6:27. I hope these verses help you as they have helped me. Keep up the good work! Also you mentioned that you've played aton of fps games. Lately I've been trying to find one that i enjoy but have been striking out. Any suggestions?
Its cool to see the new direction for the channel lately. Been catching up on videos and its been a fun coincidence that I've been having a lot the same thoughts on games/work balance/stress lately. Its hard but just being self-aware and have these self conversations really help
Once you're able to let go of things out of your control, a massive mental weight I'd lifted. I've had to learn to step back and let things go where they may. Rather than trying to fix everything.
Dragoon this video really hit. I remember watching your first Halo Reach sniping tips and tricks and been around ever since. We're similar ages and on similar trajectories so for years its felt like I'm learning the same lessons as you. Keep on keeping on man.
I've said this on so many of yours videos already, but I must reiterate that I love how cozy this channel is. Chill real talk over gameplay is such a good idea.
I’m a very anxious person (27 yo) and my dad has been telling me my whole life to focus on worrying about things that are in my control. At the end of the day, that ends up being very little!
Found your channel recently! I love videos like this. I recently graduated high-school and am in community college doing Computer Science. While doing this I realized I don't want to work in a cubicle looking at screens all day. (Except videogames lol) The corporate life isn't for me. I want to become a music (percussion) teacher. I desire to inspire and encourage others to express themselves and feel euphoria in a way that I've felt while playing. I want to be genuinely involved in other's progress and the music community at large. This may seem foolish or a bad idea, but I want to at least go for it, we only live once so I must try. Thanks for making these videos, they foster reflection and encourage others. I wish to do something similar someday in my own way.
Brilliant content, this has become one of my comfort channels for sure, I am also in a state of trying to let go of things I cannot control, trying to deal with the fact I cannot solve EVERY problem and how I waste so much time so much happiness fixated on an issue that 1) I did not cause 2) there's no way to fix it.
It’s 6:09pm as I watched this and my work computer is on in the background. I was taking a break before I got back to work but while listening to you, I just turned it off until 9am tomorrow. I will take back my time and if I am dealing with things I can’t handle, I can always look for other opportunities. No need to worry about it
Always love your chill commentaries, and these vids on life stuff are especially thoughtful, like it's stuff we should all take a moment to hear. Hope you're doin' well dragoon
Just came across your "simply your gaming life" video and that was what I try to do, go back to classics and such so I thought, "wow nice video". Then I wanted to check your latest one and found this. Which totally was in sync with my current state of mind. Human mind is so fickle, why burden yourself with worrying for the things you cannot change? I also suffer from this. Amazing channel. Just subbed and turned on notifications. Thanks for your efforts
I put one of my dogs down yesterday. She was 16 years old. I spent so much time worrying about her condition, selfishly wanting "Just one more day, just one more day" as things got worse, but then she'd have a good day, and I'd try to justify my selfishness. The amount of worry for her is now gone, she's now passed, and I feel so guilty saying that I feel relief that she is gone.
Discovered your channel while feeling stressed about my backlog and now look forward to your videos as short reminders of the good things. Thanks for your hard work, Dragoon! You are appreciated :)
You should try to get into Stoicism. One of the pillars of this philosophy is exactly about not focusing on what's not on our control, not suffering from our imagination, etc... Meditations by Marcus Aurelius is really a great starting point!
Letting go means you care about your inner peace. It’s something everyone knows but also everyone sometimes forgets, some more than others. If if may give some advice I’d say stop watching the news, delete your social media, go walk and camp in the woods, we were never meant for this tidal wave of digital nonsense. It’s just so much and it went so fast. Nice video man🤜🏼🤛🏼
It's so much easier to not care after caring so much for it for so long. I'm in a similar boat to you with halo, grew up on it, quote it to death with my mates, but have stepped away since infinite. I still care and will come back for each release but I'm not going to waste my time on it if it doesn't peak my interests.
"Can any of you add one moment to his life span by worrying?" - Matthew 6:27 I definitely have gotten better at this the last few years, but still have a ways to go. Also, I just discovered your channel a few days ago and have been watching a bunch of it. You should do more videos on the games you're playing with your thoughts on them. Definitely like the chill vibes 👍
I do want to add that we can do something about the halo MCC cheating situation, its just hard due to needing to be well organized and unified, but it is possible, took at the FixTF2 movement. But you are right that we need to focus on what we can control.
I think holidays from work is essential. As you get sick of dealing with the same problems over and over it becomes nauseating. Take a break and all of a sudden these problems become.e less irksome and not so frustrating to deal with. Then slowly as your holidays drift further away the problems become harder to deal with. Often I think my life is great if I didn't have to work and often I think my work is good. Right now I'm 3 weeks from a 5 week holiday and work is not bothersome, 3 weeks ago it was like fucking shit literally
I had to do a similar thing with Apex and just let go like you did with Halo. You're completely right. The executives at the top really don't care about the game, and late stage capitalism has forced pretty much everything thing to be strictly shareholder focused. I just say to myself, it is what it is, and there's many other games I can enjoy.
I don’t let go of halo because it’s the franchise that got me into Xbox, I don’t let go of it because it’s a part of me, and I don’t want to let go of Xbox because it’s the only platform with compatibility with old games!
i´m starting a new stage in my live, i´ve cone to another city (not very far wawy from my hometown) to study a grade of modeling and animation, also i have to study again the C1 cambridge exam and from time to time i have negative thoughts of failure, i know that if this isn´t my thing i have way more jobs to aim, but i dont know how to deal with them. This is stessing me.
Interesting time to release this video 😆, when the slow burn rage of Sony moving their headquarters to California all those years ago has just been stirred fresh again with the announcement of PS5 Pro but with no games 🤣. For hobby stuff it's "easy" to let go, like I've made peace with the DOA franchise going to shit after malicious leadership changes, and the fact we'll never get Gravity Rush 3, but other irl stuff you simply can't ignore (violent geopolitical tyrants and their target is _you_ (me))... I think the only real solution is to go be a hermit in the mountains (die trying is also a success lol). Pre-happy weekend everybody, and hope to see some of you on the Synduality network test! (Long shot 🙈)
but how? im stressing about not being able to stop stressing about stuff. Not that that's the only thing I stress about, there's a gazillion billion other things all the time.
The problem is, 343 could easily fix it. They were literally created *by* Microsoft in preparation for Bungie leaving. They just don't want to That said I've just kinda stopped caring about Halo and just moved on
As a fan of the OG Halos, including ODST & Reach....I can't bring myself to play anything after Halo 4. I still play Halo even with friends and we always wind up playing the older Halos. Halo 5 & Infinite are corny, cheesy, microtransaction filled, T rated cash grabs and are not fun to play at all. And, worse graphics than older games, boring campaigns, battlepasses, features that are not there at launch or at all, unnecessary changes to the formula, I can go ON..... It makes me weap when I think of what Halo was, and what it is now...corporatized trash trying to appeal to a 'larger' audience when it already had a HUGE audience. They lost more people than gained.
I enjoy that this channel is a blend of gaming and mental health, both things I’m focusing on right now in my life.
“Do not force yourself into being miserable chasing an experience that doesn’t exist anymore” never sounded more applicable to what I’m trying to understand right now. I think i really should just go back to enjoy things that actually serve me. Thanks dude

Letting go means you care about your inner peace. It’s something everyone knows but also everyone sometimes forgets, some more than others.

Take a break and all of a sudden these problems become.e less irksome and not so frustrating to deal with. Then slowly as your holidays drift further away the problems become harder to deal with. Often I think my life is great if I didn't have to work and often I think my work is good. Right now I'm 3 weeks from a 5 week holiday and work is not bothersome, 3 weeks ago it was like fucking shit literally
thank u , i needed this .
i’m just a 24 yo who just entered a 9-5 and i do the same. I don’t feel anxious or stressed anymore
Hey man what game is this in the background and is it fun?
I wanna know too sucks he didnt mention it, isnt it what this channel is about nowadays ?
I had to do a similar thing with Apex and just let go like you did with Halo. You're completely right. The executives at the top really don't care about the game, and late stage capitalism has forced pretty much everything thing to be strictly shareholder focused.
I just say to myself, it is what it is, and there's many other games I can enjoy.
I agree.
Glad I found your channel, great content!
Halo is such nostalgia
Bro you are me. Just I love Half-Life 1 and you Halo...
Yo let's go!!!
MAKE MORE ADVICE AND CHILL VIDEOS LIKE THIS THEY ARE AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!

Why is this guy being recommended to me? 0:47 ohhh gotcha

God doesn’t want us to worry, stress and have fear.
what's the first game?
It's called Lunistice, really cool platformer for like 4.99 USD
Lunistice
It's Lunistice, there is text on the screen that says the name of each game in the video
I don’t let go of halo because it’s the franchise that got me into Xbox, I don’t let go of it because it’s a part of me, and I don’t want to let go of Xbox because it’s the only platform with compatibility with old games!
i´m starting a new stage in my live, i´ve cone to another city (not very far wawy from my hometown) to study a grade of modeling and animation, also i have to study again the C1 cambridge exam and from time to time i have negative thoughts of failure, i know that if this isn´t my thing i have way more jobs to aim, but i dont know how to deal with them. This is stessing me.
Interesting time to release this video 😆, when the slow burn rage of Sony moving their headquarters to California all those years ago has just been stirred fresh again with the announcement of PS5 Pro but with no games 🤣.
For hobby stuff it's "easy" to let go, like I've made peace with the DOA franchise going to shit after malicious leadership changes, and the fact we'll never get Gravity Rush 3, but other irl stuff you simply can't ignore (violent geopolitical tyrants and their target is _you_ (me))... I think the only real solution is to go be a hermit in the mountains (die trying is also a success lol).
Pre-happy weekend everybody, and hope to see some of you on the Synduality network test! (Long shot 🙈)
Great video man.
Thank you
Let me not worry about breathing😂
What happens on Friday?
A new video, I upload mon, wed, friday
but how? im stressing about not being able to stop stressing about stuff. Not that that's the only thing I stress about, there's a gazillion billion other things all the time.
The problem is, 343 could easily fix it. They were literally created *by* Microsoft in preparation for Bungie leaving. They just don't want to
That said I've just kinda stopped caring about Halo and just moved on
As a fan of the OG Halos, including ODST & Reach....I can't bring myself to play anything after Halo 4. I still play Halo even with friends and we always wind up playing the older Halos. Halo 5 & Infinite are corny, cheesy, microtransaction filled, T rated cash grabs and are not fun to play at all. And, worse graphics than older games, boring campaigns, battlepasses, features that are not there at launch or at all, unnecessary changes to the formula, I can go ON..... It makes me weap when I think of what Halo was, and what it is now...corporatized trash trying to appeal to a 'larger' audience when it already had a HUGE audience. They lost more people than gained.
