trust me bro everyone deals w that at some point it’s apart of the process.. all you have to do is start and that spark will come, you can do anything you put your mind to don’t be paralyzed by other’s opinions
Fuck what people say bro go and do it Now, stop procrastinating, what's the worst that can happen. you build more Courage within when you Try something new, even if it doesn't work. Never suffer the Regret of What if. Be in the Now brother, and stop procrastinating you are Enough.
Jus gotta start man! Don’t worry about others or about waiting for the perfect conditions because they may never come. Work with what ya got and you’ll seriously be surprised with what happens. I just got monetized this year! And I can’t imagine what I’d be doing right now if I never started my channel.
"I wish this day was mine." God I felt that, I just started a new job, and honestly it's the best job I've ever had, the work place is fun for the most part and I love my manager, and all my co workers are amazing and everyones so kind and chill. But theres still just this off feeling I have where I'm just like, I wish this was my time and not the time I'm giving to a company to make profits. It still feels somewhat dystopian even though for the most part I enjoy my work. Appreciate this video, I've been really trying to make the most of my time, I started drawing again recently, which I hadn't done since I was at school like 6 years ago. Trying to finish a song i wrote a little while back, and I still have my final year university film project I'm excited for. And I just recorded a bunch of my MW2 gameplay yesterday so gonna make similar video to yours :) Thanks again for uploading
I need you to keep making these videos. They are lighting a fire and I’m afraid I don’t have the fuel in me yet to keep it lit.. but every video of yours kicks me right back into reality. Thank you
I'm 31 now. By the middle of the pandemic I was overweight, miserable, working a job I hated and constantly overwhelmed and stressed. I started to have major stomach problems and was told I might have cancer. I was lucky and ended up being alright after long difficult stretch but it scared me shitless and made me realise a lot had to change. Since then I've bought a house, visited to japan ( was on my bucket list for my entire life ), got a much better job with a raise, lost weight, been diagnosed with ADHD ( which makes life a lot easier manage knowing what's going on ) and have been learning to drive again. I have a mobile app and a book I've been working on on the side and plan to finish those then make a game and a short movie. Sometimes you have to scared out your mind to realise you do actually want to do the work to change everything.
every single day i wake up for 7 am to go to work, im 20 right now and ive been so unmotivated to do ANYTHING with my life all because of work. these videos truly do motivate me man i love what ur doin, knowing im not alone in all this is great. thank you again faded
man these videos hit different some of the best content on my youtube recently just because its so real, these videos just feel like sitting in a call over discord or talking in person with a good friend just about life. love to see the skate 3 gameplay too my personal favorite game when i was growing up
I feel you man, at my job I either gotta start at 5:30am or 10:30pm and leave in the morning, I feel like all I wanna do is sleep when I'm off work and it's running my life
You have to throw your resume out there. Apply to a bunch of different stuff. Even a temporary change can give you some breathing room to think about what this life is about.
ive seen like 5 of your videos at this point, and i just wanted to thank you bro for speaking up, motivating, clarifying what i fucking feel. I feel so stuck, i lack motivation, dicipline, but i still have the gut feeling that this sht isnt it. Ill begin studying in 9 months, and ill do that for 4 years. I just wanted to say thank you for doing these videos, becuase they make me feel something that ive not felt in a long while. Im 20 now, time rushes by so fast man. Ill use this motivation as a kickstarter. We can all make our dreams a reality. I myself know that i can, my useless fucking self know that i can make my dreams a reality, i just dont know how to do it. You keep my small motivation alive bro, thank you.
it's okay man you got time on your side for real. I'm 26 turning 27 next year and I want to have my stuff together more than it is now before gta comes out which I guess is a big motivator. I have a maths degree but been working in retail for best part of 18 months and I've timed my notice so I leave a week before Christmas so they'll have to adapt to being without me because I feel like I wasn't treated too nice recently and I need a break plus I got a mess at home to declutter. Maybe if I can't figure anything better out before next summer i'll see if I can go back for a while so that I can keep some more secure income while I still figure things out but ideally I find something I can do freelance or close to. I already do something like that typing from home but it is more tiring and less pay per hour than even a min wage job outside
@@Stallzyx sounds like a plan bro, I was feeling really down when i wrote this nd i guess i still do. I know i gotta get some routines into my life and shit, thats where i gotta start atleast. ive been taking a break from school now and im on my second year off. Ive realised that this sht isnt for me i get stuck so easily in this lifestyle and i find myself just getting depressed instead of enjoying my free time. Im looking forward to studying atleast, Life was just easier before thats it.
@@lim3ee387 agreed. I feel like I currently have similar to a gambling addiction trying to squeeze nostalgia out of the old call of duty games while it's still possible to play them and hit big sniper clips that I should have done ages ago but I was prioritising school and work etc (rightly so maybe?) haha
I was a software engineer and a cyber security expert. I spent far too long being at jobs I hate. I am fed up. I'd rather die than go back. I sold my home and luckily will have no debt. I am also lucky I don't have any children. I am just going to live on nothing until I get my business going. You almost just got to get to the point you can't take it anymore.
hi, im 17, i live in belgium and i drop out of school like 2 year ago because i just could'nt go, i feel like school is a factory to make us work for the rest of our life and i just dont like it, im trying to do what i love but it dont seems to work.. I really dont want to go work a 9-5, just thinking about it makes me depressed, even playing video games are just making me feel useless, i dont know if my future is gonna be decent. i started to watch your videos the moment you published '' everything just feels different '' because that video got a hit on me so hard like you cant imagine, i just hope that yours videos will work, your cloth brand work out and i hope you the best for your future. you deserve it man.
I am really glad I found your channel. I feel the same way you do and I actually just recently (over the past month and a half) have been planning to go back to school to actually pursue a career that I want to have. Lack of a financial backing makes some of these leaps hard to take but its like you said, you don't have to stop working. Just let that work continue to drive you to work towards your goals.
I was always told that if I worked hard and stayed at a job for a long time, than I would make a lot of money and get a lot of benefits there. Never happened to me. While I'll admit that I don't stay at the job for a long time, I do bust my ass off whenever I worked. But never got anything in return. What really got me out of this mindset was when while I was at my final months working at Burger King, even though I was told by the majority of my coworkers that they like having me there and I'd get stuff done, I had barely any hours. Meanwhile one of the coworkers we had, that doesn't do anything and would make a huge mess for no reason. Having one of us clean it up half the time. They got double, maybe even triple the hours than I got. And when I asked for more hours, that never happened. So after experiencing that I just decided enough was enough and left. It was really an eye opener for me and now I don't go the extra mile on jobs.
Thank you. This means the world to me, insparation is the key excaping this perpetual cycle of work. It wears on your mind and body so much that its not worth it. Working to live your life isnt bad but living to work is hell. Dont let them drag you deeper into this mindset that this is all you are, and all your good for. Fuck them and fuck that be your own person make your own brand start your own buissness find a way to live beyond anyones expectations even your own.
I feel you man. I work at a Walmart warehouse and it is soul sucking. I feel so much anxiety and anger when I’m there. But I like what you said about letting that drive you to do something that you wake up excited to do because it’s yours. Keep up these videos. You are impacting more people than you know. We’re all here with you bro.
you don’t know how much these videos mean to me and probably to many others out there that feel they can’t speak about the things you speak about, these last three videos have hit so deep man, 25 years old and no direction just missing the old days of bo2 and mw3 going for feeds with the boys, keep these up dude, they mean more than you think🤙🏻
It's amazing how youtube works. You ignited something in me....something i had years ago. This account im commenting from....back when i had the "spark" so to say to do something of my own, even when it wasnt perfect - my english was not as good as it is now, i was a gullible kid trying to make videos about a game i loved.. but nontheless i did something. Then graduation came, then work and i knew i still had something in me. I dont want to badmouth anyone, thats not my point. But I notice stuff that others around me at my work dont. I understand stuff really quickly compared to others. My passion, for a long time, was music / writing lyrics. So I bought a mic, audio interface, plastered my room with acoustic panels and made some songs that my close circle enjoys - they honestly tell me when they dont feel it and the other way around, tell me when something hits them......but I never got the balls to reach out, record at a professional studio and release it. Your video, your voice, your tone got me butterflies again. That feeling that something is going the right way (I dont know how to describe it)... the feeling like you are finger tips away from something. Thanks a lot. I dont want this to sound the wrong way, to get the attention - but when I was 12 years old I tried to "leave" this world (bullying, mockery, etc.) and eversince I doubted myself. I got over it right after highschool and at that time became the best best best friends with my 2y older brother with whom we are currently trying to break through with our projects. Thank a lot, I felt heard. Amazing....truly
Bro my mind drifts just like this almost all day every day since i got sober a few years back. Its all i think about almost obsessive. I know for a fact that there is a new way of doing things, I know for a fact that a 9-5 just isn't it anymore & tbh it never was it was some old timey shit written by a guy with ink and a feather. And i think alot of people fail to realise they're own potential and just accept the cards they where dealt myself included sometimes. Deep down im not okay with that and never will be until im doing shit on my own and owning what i do. Thanks for your content bro keep at it.
Bro u really just motivated me to make videos like this frfr. Gonna try to help people find that happiness we once had again. Make a space where people feel safe to speak their thoughts and not keep it held up a space where people don’t have to hold emotions in…thank you for the motivation brother like seriously
Nice video brother, I really relate to this. I start work at 8am everyday and every morning I’m constantly thinking about my escape. When I get home I’m usually so out of it but I still try and motivate myself to get in the office and work on my editing. Keep hustling bro I believe in you
Mr Faded, seeing that latest video of yours break the algorithm kicked up a fire in my soul. Your editing style and demeanour helped me realise that well, bo6 is genuinely so bad for my mental health and that I'm basically holding on to the nostalgia of my childhood. I posted a lil vid just now, I'm not on some self promo bs here, you don't have to go and watch it, I just want you to know you and a few others on the RUclips platform were QUINTESSENTIAL to that video's creation and you just helped me a lot this past week with moving forward in my life, I appreciate you. Stay well and I hope you had a great thanksgiving with your family :) x
At 3:20ish, you said you never took that leap, and you always just waited. I really feel that, I've kinda been feeling like that for a while, but I think i'm started to learn how to take more risks, how to actually do things I want to do, not just things I have to do. Thanks for making these videos man, they are really well done and they are definitely something I think a lot of people can relate to.
I'm at a tricky crossroads, I'm at a point where I have a good 9-5 and enjoy it but also its not what I WANT to do, I'm starting to get to a position where I could do content full time but the fear and anxiety of content failing or 'falling off' or anything like that scares me so much where I'm just not sure I can make the leap
Someone commented before to do doordash / uber while you focus on content. I think thats a pretty good idea. Even though the money won't be as good, you'll get to choose your hours. And fall off is kind of inevitable in this space but the skills are so transferable (editing, photoshop, algorithm). You got this
I just subbed ❤️ I watched your video about a week ago and I couldn’t find your account again. Then today while I’m on my 30 minute break I see your video pop up again. Your words found its way back to me and it made me happy . Keep up the good work and I wish the best for your clothing brand or whatever passion you have that makes you happy 🫶🏽
Hey dude, I just wanted to tell you I love your content. I relate to everything you say, and I wouldn't by any means say I'm depressed or that I lack happiness, but life is bleak, it's almost like the perfect painting. The perfect painting that over the years has bled and lost its bright vivid colour. But I think that's because of our perspective or outlook on things. I think we're simply looking through the wrong lens, and that painting never really changed, but it was the lens that we viewed that painting from, that did. I always say that we are never really living. We are born, and that's the only moment we are alive. We don't die once. We die every day, or atleast a part of us does.
I worked construction for 5 years. Pushed me close to suicide near the end, its astounding what employers / colleagues will expect you to give for such little conpensation, and how they will expect you to feel guilty for not jumping at the opportunity to do so.
Sometimes life is like a dark dark tunnel you wont always see the light but if you just keep moving keep getting up! You will prevail! Follow your own journey not what people think your journey will be.
hey mate me again(the 19 yr old from the 2nd vid) and fk ur right i just needa live and do shit and not think about it. Followed ya clothing store since the moment i watched the 2nd vid and cannot wait for it to drop followed it at before there was even 50 ppl now its growing rampart cannot wait for the drops! But basically just thank you for being a voice that's helped me think about perspective, the way i live, everything really, Opened my mind up and now have a feeling that i can potentially turn shit around and might not be stuck in this infinite loop now its just trying to figure out what i truly want to do with the rest of my life thats the hardest bit cos i got 0 clue on what i wanna do for a job/even what I'm interested In. Please keep up the vids there quite literally 1 in billion just like u mate
Yeah doing something over and over and over Is exhausting I had that same feeling when I was 20-22 then I went to the oilfield it was good pay but then got the same feeling and didn't want to do it again even the pay wasn't satisfying anymore and quit but I went back for quit cash and left again rn I'm unemployed with a broken car tough life
I've been asked what I want to do in life by my family so much this year and I really don't know. I don't really have a real passion for anything right now, I have things in mind but I don't even know if the reason I get into them will still be around by the time I'm able to achieve it. Yes I'll still have a passion to help understand how mental problems form in the brain and the best way to fix them but really the only reason I feel that way is because I've been through hell and back and I feel that's selfish of me but it's the only reason I feel a slight passion for it. Even with the passion I have for it, I don't know if I'll be able to do it. I've made so many mistakes in life that I'm trying to fix but at the same time I always ask what's the point, I'll probably lose my reason before I get the real chance to change it. All the time I want to strive for greatness but I feel so lost everyday, I question myself, my reasons, my responsibilities. It's weird but I hate and love myself almost equally. Really my only motivation through life has been hatred and spite, I'm just an emotional person who never got the chance to really express myself. I don't hate or spite anyone it's mainly towards myself and feeling like a coward if I were to just end it. I've tried a few times but I never fully went through with it, I want to live but right now I feel there's nothing to live for except my grandparents. I'll be 18 in 2 months and I have a security job lined up for me but the only reason I'm taking it is so I can help my grandparents, they've taken care of me my whole life and I feel like such a piece of shit because I haven't been able to get a job since I'm a drop out who's trying to get his ged. All I want is to help but I can't help anyone if I can't even help myself. I'm sorry for ranting like this in the comment section but I'm trying my best right now and I don't feel like it's enough.
Before I joined the company I work for right now, I used to get motivated and inspired to do shit for myself as a programmer, but now that I work as a software developer, I get home and I can't get myself to code anymore. I work with what I love, or rather what I used to love back then. The lost of motivation makes it so hard to find motivation in other things, I used to stream and create videos, but with time I simply lost the motivation to continue because of how exhausted I get after work. Maybe one day I'll overcome this and manage to find something new to inspire me into good things.
One of the best things a man can do is invest in himself. Dedicate an hour a day to workout, plan, learn, or schedule a day trip outdoors for the weekend. Break your norm. Control your current controllables. Money will come and go. Thank God for your present. His path is always working the way it should. Prayers so everyone here ❤
Felt this so hard. Some weeks I don't even get two days in a row off. Work drains me so much. I want to make something of my own. Not a company or anything but some way to express myself that could give me a way out of work. Work feels like it just kills all of my expressive ability
Yup yup been feeling the same way for the last two years since I graduated. 19 now and I just put my 2 weeks in and now I'm enlisting in the army because why not , the same way you put time into that job and waste away for them to even just barely appreciate you and givw you a 50 cent raise you could use that to truly do what you want i just beg you if you are ablebodied be your best self and accomplish amazing things.
Hard thing is when you have a lot of dreams and ambitions, and nobody at all has the same energy. They look at you weird and are doubtful. It’s dead everywhere you go. Everyone has decided their fate in a dead end job. They have no time to live or enjoy life. They have no purpose or any life that fills their eyes. They are literally just waiting to die and I see this starting at ages 21 and up.
i feel this so so much, there just has to be more to life man, YT/twitch/content creation in general is filled to the brim with everybody trying to be able the next hot/viral thing, the chances are just so slim. That's why i put all my hope in the $GME (GameStop) stock, the media keeps hammering on how everybody should 'forget the meme stock' but they've been saying that for the last 4 years lmao, idk my gut feeling is just telling me that this will be something big just because how hard the media is on their backs. If you're reading this, you might think this sounds dumb af or you might think that there's indeed something brewing here. There is ton of information out there, i just bought a little bit and i'm holding, i was too late for bitcoin but i'm very early for the $GME train! EARLY, NOT WRONG! (DRS that shit)
Everything is just cycles, the same old wheels going round and round but never getting anywhere. I always look forward to the weekend, then when the days arrive I just don't feel like it's enough to even wind down. Once you've managed to breathe out and relax it's gone as soon as it came. But what do you do when there is no spark left in you? I lack dreams and ambitions. I have nothing to aim for, so I end up doing the same shit, day in and day out. All I do in my spare time is just sitting home and playing video games or other form of entertainment, just trying to relax. But there's always that gnawing sensation in the back of my mind, it all feels hollow at the end of the day because there's no progression. Just mindlessly running on the hamster wheel without a destination in sight. I even do what I'm supposed to: Work to earn money, eat healthy and workout five days a week to get fit, being kind to others, etc. I have a loving family, a good job, I'm healthiest and fittest I've ever been. But at the end of the day what does it matter when you don't know who you are or what you want to do? My own reflection isn't even myself anymore, just a blurry figured of someone who used to be me. But the worst part is not knowing what piece of myself I'm missing. I'm just afraid that I won't be able to find a spark to light up a fire in my soul. I'm just that kid from back then, just a kid that didn't know how to adapt to the growing adult world I guess.
I’m slowly coming to the realisation that video games is a slight coping mechanism. Like I still play them a shit tonne but it really is an escape from reality, just like a drug. I suggest just starting a note and just writing shit down that you want to do and expanding on them. It can really help put things into perspective
@@oncefaded Yeah I've very much noticed that too now that I've grown older. I guess I just didn't want to realize it until now. Change is a scary thing and it's hard to break out from your comfort zone, but I can't put it on hold forever. I'll give it a shot. Thank you!
@@oncefaded This 100 percent, the days just merge into one another and like I don't work a structured week really so my mum has shown me what she finds works for her and it makes sense, basically like journalling what you've done each day and what you still have to do. Make a list for the week or month ahead and maybe discipline yourself to not treat to other things which are time wasting activities until you get a few things on the list done each day
I’m 32 goin thru this now. I was the opposite put everything in my craft in my 20s w photography and being a “starving artist” was such a grind but the older I got ij needed to have something more sustainable. I still do both and photo my passion. I’m just tired :/
6 - 6 most days with Saturday work too 5 hours, it’s deteriorating just work, eat, sleep I also just want to go skating too which helps me keep sane but got no time to do it, nearly 30 bout time I do something for myself I say, I’m resigning tomorrow, life isn’t long do what you want to do with it, cool vid
Not saying this to seem negative, edgy or for attention. Maybe just relatability. I remember back when I was 13, having a mental breakdown for the first time and falling into a depression that I didn't manage to get out of until 4 years later. I remember my mindset back then and the way I looked at things. It's sort of clique but it's like looking back on somebody you don't recognise. But I guess the funny thing is that I ended up (now) becoming what I hated (back then). My mindset partially had the belief that the large majority of people just cope with their lives. Living a 9 to 5 especially, the complacency of it all, all just a coping mechanism. I came to that conclusion likely because of how much I hated school, how it groomed you into being brainwashed that this is what life is all about. I remember I used to think of nothing but getting home and playing Little Big Planet or Garry's Mod back when I was a kid, or getting home and watching the latest VanossGaming, XboX Addictionz or Ryan Higa video. It was all just a coping mechanism and I broke down when it suddenly stopped working. I remember it clear as day. I booted up my favourite game but I just didn't want to play, so I tried to play a different game but I still wasn't enjoying it. I opened up RUclips but once again, I couldn't enjoy it. I began to scroll and scroll through the videos but I was just spaced out the whole time, completely disassociating. And then I just stared at the RUclips logo, just focusing on nothing but the logo. I think I sat there in dead silence for about a minute before I began to break down out of nowhere. Back to the topic at hand, I remember having this anger towards how school 'planned' your life, I absolutely despised the phrase "what do you want to do with your life?" because all it sets up is an expectation for a life of work in the context of school getting you ready to go into the workforce. As I say, I've become what I hated. I used to think "I don't care what happens, I'll never let myself become a sheep who works every day of his life", but that's just too easy for a 14-15 year old kid to say. I now work a standard 9-5 office job. I don't hate it. Good pay, good benefits, good support and access to facilities, etc. But then I watch something like this and I feel like my very own green goblin is on my shoulder saying "You make me sick". I spent my early childhood living in the countryside. In my country that means a lot of green forests and fields. Life felt so free back then. I'd run up to my neighbours house who owned a few acres of land and he'd let me borrow his dirt buggy and I'd rip around a massive field in a 600cc buggy... at 6 years old! I mean, what a badass kid I was. Just with everything that's happened in my life it feels like a different person. Constantly trying to chase what was because the future seems too dull to aspire to be greater, just a complete lack of hope for success beyond the norm. I'm not that old despite being in my 20's now, but I just feel so tired. I used to watch a guy named Shiey check out his videos if you'd like. First video I ever watched of his was from his first (summer) trip to Chernobyl (he went back a year later during the winter), in which he crosses a shallow river and evades military patrols and official tourist rides and just... explores the abandoned area. And this guy still does shit like this. It's just mind-blowing... no it's mind-numbing knowing that somewhere out there, somebody is working their 9 to 5 shift in an office while that guy climbs a mountain or manages to sneak into an abandoned underground cold war military bunker. And the fact that many others do the same, but just don't record it. I believe that he streamed at one point and answered questions regarding his psychology. Same ideas with school and what not. To me, it just seems so impossible. Like OnceFaded says, I've just never taken a leap before.
I usually like to write these long comments for myself and then I end up deleing them once all is said and done. But I think I'll take a "leap" and actually post this comment. 😆
69th like. bro's hitting a consistent upload schedule now with the existential vids. I fuck with it. I started RUclips because TheIMightyHutch, and Optic Gaming. Dreamed of being and Optic/FaZe Sniper. Ended up editing as well. useful skill still use it as I taught myself most of it along with find another channel which I still LOVE BakerTuts
Man this couldnt be more relatable now. 2 days ago I started at my first full time job. But I have been trying to make it with trading forex for 8 months. Being in that shitty job motivates the hell out of me to make it in trading. I dont know you but I wish you the best and I can tell that with that mindset you have, you are going to make it
You cant work 9-5 but there's an important part. You cant work 9-5 FOR SOMEONE ELSE. Ever get that feeling where you cant stop 'working' on something because you love it so much? Thats what you need to try monetise (imo). Thats where fulfillment, joy and earning a living come from. There are so many other things outside of a typical 9-5 and its a shame people don't attempt to pursue them.
Hey man been loving these videos one recommendation I’ve got is to change up the background music though. As much as I love need 2 some variety would be nice
The cool part is its not even entirely about skill. Try skateboarding and record your process, people will watch for YOU. And if you don't want to make content out of it then just focus on your own progress, and now what the experts are doing. You got this man
Rn I have a job full time and go to university full time. I want to be a content creator in so many different spaces but I have to suppress that expressive side of my personality because I have to put the important things like school and work first. once I get a way better salary I’ll then just use the money I earn to do what I love and be myself and invest in myself bc I’ve never had the chance to
I’m 20 and I feel the same, I’m in college and work part time, doing quite well for myself and my age. I’ve got a few qualifications and I’m not entirely broke where im starving for money, but all the courses I did and am doing in college I’m just like. Am I really gonna have to do one of this forever, I tried the TikTok avenue and it didn’t work really plus lost passion. Kinda just lost I don’t want to work 9-5 rest of my life I want to travel but how?
What sort of type beats were you making? I got into making beats in 2017 and it's stuck with me ever since. I wish I could make more money from it, but I suck at marketing and promotions, I hate the self promo stuff, cause it feels so forced and so cringe doing it, I just can't be assed with it. I stick to my small niche corner of underground soundcloud lol.
I hope you see this. So many people are okay with living a normal life. What makes you all different is the fact you see the value you have but just don't know where to put it. This might not be ur answer but David Goggins was my answer along with jiu-jitsu 10x a week. Discipline ur mind, try things you arnt comfortable doing and do it every day. New opportunities will arise. You will have new connections/ opportunities. That's how life works. And as long as you do what you're supposed every single day if it's even eating/ eating clean: walking/ running. God will reward you as long as you do what ur supposed to. God bless. 🇺🇸
The inner fight I have between becoming a content creator & my social anxiety that paralyzes me out of fear of being perceived & judged by others.
trust me bro everyone deals w that at some point it’s apart of the process.. all you have to do is start and that spark will come, you can do anything you put your mind to don’t be paralyzed by other’s opinions
Keep the channel faceless and your name out of it. Once your comfortable then you can share that success.
im doing content but no one watches (not this channel)
Fuck what people say bro go and do it Now, stop procrastinating, what's the worst that can happen. you build more Courage within when you Try something new, even if it doesn't work. Never suffer the Regret of What if. Be in the Now brother, and stop procrastinating you are Enough.
Jus gotta start man! Don’t worry about others or about waiting for the perfect conditions because they may never come. Work with what ya got and you’ll seriously be surprised with what happens. I just got monetized this year! And I can’t imagine what I’d be doing right now if I never started my channel.
"I wish this day was mine." God I felt that, I just started a new job, and honestly it's the best job I've ever had, the work place is fun for the most part and I love my manager, and all my co workers are amazing and everyones so kind and chill. But theres still just this off feeling I have where I'm just like, I wish this was my time and not the time I'm giving to a company to make profits. It still feels somewhat dystopian even though for the most part I enjoy my work.
Appreciate this video, I've been really trying to make the most of my time, I started drawing again recently, which I hadn't done since I was at school like 6 years ago. Trying to finish a song i wrote a little while back, and I still have my final year university film project I'm excited for. And I just recorded a bunch of my MW2 gameplay yesterday so gonna make similar video to yours :)
Thanks again for uploading
Go crazy bro!
I need you to keep making these videos. They are lighting a fire and I’m afraid I don’t have the fuel in me yet to keep it lit.. but every video of yours kicks me right back into reality. Thank you
I'm 31 now. By the middle of the pandemic I was overweight, miserable, working a job I hated and constantly overwhelmed and stressed. I started to have major stomach problems and was told I might have cancer. I was lucky and ended up being alright after long difficult stretch but it scared me shitless and made me realise a lot had to change.
Since then I've bought a house, visited to japan ( was on my bucket list for my entire life ), got a much better job with a raise, lost weight, been diagnosed with ADHD ( which makes life a lot easier manage knowing what's going on ) and have been learning to drive again. I have a mobile app and a book I've been working on on the side and plan to finish those then make a game and a short movie.
Sometimes you have to scared out your mind to realise you do actually want to do the work to change everything.
love the skate 3 gameplay ^^
(also your message, your thoughts deeply resonated with me man.)
damn how much i love these videos, knowing someone else is somewhat feeling the same thing ur feeling just gives you peace.
Brother you are more help than you probably think you are. I seriously consider you a mate now. I appreciate you so much
every single day i wake up for 7 am to go to work, im 20 right now and ive been so unmotivated to do ANYTHING with my life all because of work. these videos truly do motivate me man i love what ur doin, knowing im not alone in all this is great. thank you again faded
Break out of the cycle bro because society tells us we should be doing this till we are 60… that’s crazy in my eyes
I’m really enjoying these motivational videos it feels like chatting with a friend after school
man these videos hit different some of the best content on my youtube recently just because its so real, these videos just feel like sitting in a call over discord or talking in person with a good friend just about life. love to see the skate 3 gameplay too my personal favorite game when i was growing up
Trying to be real bro 🫡 thank you for coming through
@ and i will return if you keep it up im loving the content
I feel you man, at my job I either gotta start at 5:30am or 10:30pm and leave in the morning, I feel like all I wanna do is sleep when I'm off work and it's running my life
You have to throw your resume out there. Apply to a bunch of different stuff. Even a temporary change can give you some breathing room to think about what this life is about.
ive seen like 5 of your videos at this point, and i just wanted to thank you bro for speaking up, motivating, clarifying what i fucking feel. I feel so stuck, i lack motivation, dicipline, but i still have the gut feeling that this sht isnt it. Ill begin studying in 9 months, and ill do that for 4 years. I just wanted to say thank you for doing these videos, becuase they make me feel something that ive not felt in a long while. Im 20 now, time rushes by so fast man. Ill use this motivation as a kickstarter. We can all make our dreams a reality. I myself know that i can, my useless fucking self know that i can make my dreams a reality, i just dont know how to do it. You keep my small motivation alive bro, thank you.
Gotchu bro. Don’t let your dreams die just yet
it's okay man you got time on your side for real. I'm 26 turning 27 next year and I want to have my stuff together more than it is now before gta comes out which I guess is a big motivator. I have a maths degree but been working in retail for best part of 18 months and I've timed my notice so I leave a week before Christmas so they'll have to adapt to being without me because I feel like I wasn't treated too nice recently and I need a break plus I got a mess at home to declutter. Maybe if I can't figure anything better out before next summer i'll see if I can go back for a while so that I can keep some more secure income while I still figure things out but ideally I find something I can do freelance or close to. I already do something like that typing from home but it is more tiring and less pay per hour than even a min wage job outside
@@Stallzyx sounds like a plan bro, I was feeling really down when i wrote this nd i guess i still do. I know i gotta get some routines into my life and shit, thats where i gotta start atleast. ive been taking a break from school now and im on my second year off. Ive realised that this sht isnt for me i get stuck so easily in this lifestyle and i find myself just getting depressed instead of enjoying my free time. Im looking forward to studying atleast, Life was just easier before thats it.
@@lim3ee387 agreed. I feel like I currently have similar to a gambling addiction trying to squeeze nostalgia out of the old call of duty games while it's still possible to play them and hit big sniper clips that I should have done ages ago but I was prioritising school and work etc (rightly so maybe?) haha
nah i feel you
I was a software engineer and a cyber security expert. I spent far too long being at jobs I hate. I am fed up. I'd rather die than go back. I sold my home and luckily will have no debt. I am also lucky I don't have any children. I am just going to live on nothing until I get my business going. You almost just got to get to the point you can't take it anymore.
Wishing you the best bro
hi, im 17, i live in belgium and i drop out of school like 2 year ago because i just could'nt go, i feel like school is a factory to make us work for the rest of our life and i just dont like it, im trying to do what i love but it dont seems to work.. I really dont want to go work a 9-5, just thinking about it makes me depressed, even playing video games are just making me feel useless, i dont know if my future is gonna be decent. i started to watch your videos the moment you published '' everything just feels different '' because that video got a hit on me so hard like you cant imagine, i just hope that yours videos will work, your cloth brand work out and i hope you the best for your future. you deserve it man.
Actually really fucking well spoken, didnt even realise the video came to an end
Damn I’m a bit of a mumbler so that’s cool to hear!
I am really glad I found your channel. I feel the same way you do and I actually just recently (over the past month and a half) have been planning to go back to school to actually pursue a career that I want to have. Lack of a financial backing makes some of these leaps hard to take but its like you said, you don't have to stop working. Just let that work continue to drive you to work towards your goals.
I have faith in you bro don’t give up
God bless you. So refreshing to hear someone else voice their 2cents on this. Makes you feel like you’re not alone going through the same thing
I was always told that if I worked hard and stayed at a job for a long time, than I would make a lot of money and get a lot of benefits there. Never happened to me. While I'll admit that I don't stay at the job for a long time, I do bust my ass off whenever I worked. But never got anything in return.
What really got me out of this mindset was when while I was at my final months working at Burger King, even though I was told by the majority of my coworkers that they like having me there and I'd get stuff done, I had barely any hours. Meanwhile one of the coworkers we had, that doesn't do anything and would make a huge mess for no reason. Having one of us clean it up half the time. They got double, maybe even triple the hours than I got. And when I asked for more hours, that never happened. So after experiencing that I just decided enough was enough and left. It was really an eye opener for me and now I don't go the extra mile on jobs.
Thank you. This means the world to me, insparation is the key excaping this perpetual cycle of work. It wears on your mind and body so much that its not worth it. Working to live your life isnt bad but living to work is hell. Dont let them drag you deeper into this mindset that this is all you are, and all your good for. Fuck them and fuck that be your own person make your own brand start your own buissness find a way to live beyond anyones expectations even your own.
I feel you man. I work at a Walmart warehouse and it is soul sucking. I feel so much anxiety and anger when I’m there. But I like what you said about letting that drive you to do something that you wake up excited to do because it’s yours. Keep up these videos. You are impacting more people than you know. We’re all here with you bro.
Use that anger bro it’s what got me to make this channel and look at it now. You got this
you don’t know how much these videos mean to me and probably to many others out there that feel they can’t speak about the things you speak about, these last three videos have hit so deep man, 25 years old and no direction just missing the old days of bo2 and mw3 going for feeds with the boys, keep these up dude, they mean more than you think🤙🏻
When all that mattered in life was hitting feeds 😂 and it got us no where besides the good memories ahaha
It's amazing how youtube works. You ignited something in me....something i had years ago. This account im commenting from....back when i had the "spark" so to say to do something of my own, even when it wasnt perfect - my english was not as good as it is now, i was a gullible kid trying to make videos about a game i loved.. but nontheless i did something.
Then graduation came, then work and i knew i still had something in me. I dont want to badmouth anyone, thats not my point. But I notice stuff that others around me at my work dont. I understand stuff really quickly compared to others.
My passion, for a long time, was music / writing lyrics. So I bought a mic, audio interface, plastered my room with acoustic panels and made some songs that my close circle enjoys - they honestly tell me when they dont feel it and the other way around, tell me when something hits them......but I never got the balls to reach out, record at a professional studio and release it.
Your video, your voice, your tone got me butterflies again. That feeling that something is going the right way (I dont know how to describe it)... the feeling like you are finger tips away from something. Thanks a lot. I dont want this to sound the wrong way, to get the attention - but when I was 12 years old I tried to "leave" this world (bullying, mockery, etc.) and eversince I doubted myself. I got over it right after highschool and at that time became the best best best friends with my 2y older brother with whom we are currently trying to break through with our projects.
Thank a lot, I felt heard. Amazing....truly
Best of luck with what ever you wish to achieve 🫡
Keep it up bro that vid that blew up and the follow up vid made me cry knowing we cant go back only move forward.
Bro my mind drifts just like this almost all day every day since i got sober a few years back. Its all i think about almost obsessive. I know for a fact that there is a new way of doing things, I know for a fact that a 9-5 just isn't it anymore & tbh it never was it was some old timey shit written by a guy with ink and a feather. And i think alot of people fail to realise they're own potential and just accept the cards they where dealt myself included sometimes. Deep down im not okay with that and never will be until im doing shit on my own and owning what i do. Thanks for your content bro keep at it.
You’re videos are my therapy, and I love it
This stuff motivates me to keep going 🫡
@ you’re the best, you’ve even inspired me to film a video about my childhood abuse as a coping mechanism
I always watch your videos on my work break 😂 feels like a good conversation with one of my coworkers
Bro u really just motivated me to make videos like this frfr. Gonna try to help people find that happiness we once had again. Make a space where people feel safe to speak their thoughts and not keep it held up a space where people don’t have to hold emotions in…thank you for the motivation brother like seriously
Nice video brother, I really relate to this. I start work at 8am everyday and every morning I’m constantly thinking about my escape. When I get home I’m usually so out of it but I still try and motivate myself to get in the office and work on my editing. Keep hustling bro I believe in you
Mr Faded, seeing that latest video of yours break the algorithm kicked up a fire in my soul.
Your editing style and demeanour helped me realise that well, bo6 is genuinely so bad for my mental health and that I'm basically holding on to the nostalgia of my childhood.
I posted a lil vid just now, I'm not on some self promo bs here, you don't have to go and watch it, I just want you to know you and a few others on the RUclips platform were QUINTESSENTIAL to that video's creation and you just helped me a lot this past week with moving forward in my life, I appreciate you.
Stay well and I hope you had a great thanksgiving with your family :) x
At 3:20ish, you said you never took that leap, and you always just waited. I really feel that, I've kinda been feeling like that for a while, but I think i'm started to learn how to take more risks, how to actually do things I want to do, not just things I have to do. Thanks for making these videos man, they are really well done and they are definitely something I think a lot of people can relate to.
I'm at a tricky crossroads, I'm at a point where I have a good 9-5 and enjoy it but also its not what I WANT to do, I'm starting to get to a position where I could do content full time but the fear and anxiety of content failing or 'falling off' or anything like that scares me so much where I'm just not sure I can make the leap
Well what's the worst that can happen if you leap? If you fall, get up. You got this
Someone commented before to do doordash / uber while you focus on content. I think thats a pretty good idea. Even though the money won't be as good, you'll get to choose your hours. And fall off is kind of inevitable in this space but the skills are so transferable (editing, photoshop, algorithm). You got this
I just subbed ❤️ I watched your video about a week ago and I couldn’t find your account again. Then today while I’m on my 30 minute break I see your video pop up again. Your words found its way back to me and it made me happy . Keep up the good work and I wish the best for your clothing brand or whatever passion you have that makes you happy 🫶🏽
Glad you're back bro! I wish the best for whatever you want to do also
I'm just imagining someone walking in on you while you're recording your video on your break! 😂
He works from home
That makes sense. For some reason I thought he brought his laptop to work and was like "fuck it I'm making vids on my break" 😂@@mkw9999vr
I'm on a week break from work.. this video really hits. I am so much happier with my time to myself.
Make sure to relax bro you’ve earned it! But also be productive and set yourself up to escape the job
@@oncefadedthanks bro I wish you well I think you have the potential to make it on yt. I’ll be subscribing. This was a good video. Miss playing skate.
Hey dude, I just wanted to tell you I love your content. I relate to everything you say, and I wouldn't by any means say I'm depressed or that I lack happiness, but life is bleak, it's almost like the perfect painting. The perfect painting that over the years has bled and lost its bright vivid colour. But I think that's because of our perspective or outlook on things. I think we're simply looking through the wrong lens, and that painting never really changed, but it was the lens that we viewed that painting from, that did. I always say that we are never really living. We are born, and that's the only moment we are alive. We don't die once. We die every day, or atleast a part of us does.
Very well said
I worked construction for 5 years. Pushed me close to suicide near the end, its astounding what employers / colleagues will expect you to give for such little conpensation, and how they will expect you to feel guilty for not jumping at the opportunity to do so.
Sometimes life is like a dark dark tunnel you wont always see the light but if you just keep moving keep getting up! You will prevail! Follow your own journey not what people think your journey will be.
hey mate me again(the 19 yr old from the 2nd vid) and fk ur right i just needa live and do shit and not think about it. Followed ya clothing store since the moment i watched the 2nd vid and cannot wait for it to drop followed it at before there was even 50 ppl now its growing rampart cannot wait for the drops! But basically just thank you for being a voice that's helped me think about perspective, the way i live, everything really, Opened my mind up and now have a feeling that i can potentially turn shit around and might not be stuck in this infinite loop now its just trying to figure out what i truly want to do with the rest of my life thats the hardest bit cos i got 0 clue on what i wanna do for a job/even what I'm interested In. Please keep up the vids there quite literally 1 in billion just like u mate
really enjoying your videos, thanks for uploading mate
aim for the moon and youll land around the stars
here before this vid hits million views
This video hit me In my feels. I am truly inspired thank you for this bro
Yeah doing something over and over and over Is exhausting
I had that same feeling when I was 20-22 then I went to the oilfield it was good pay but then got the same feeling and didn't want to do it again even the pay wasn't satisfying anymore and quit but I went back for quit cash and left again rn I'm unemployed with a broken car tough life
I've been asked what I want to do in life by my family so much this year and I really don't know. I don't really have a real passion for anything right now, I have things in mind but I don't even know if the reason I get into them will still be around by the time I'm able to achieve it. Yes I'll still have a passion to help understand how mental problems form in the brain and the best way to fix them but really the only reason I feel that way is because I've been through hell and back and I feel that's selfish of me but it's the only reason I feel a slight passion for it. Even with the passion I have for it, I don't know if I'll be able to do it. I've made so many mistakes in life that I'm trying to fix but at the same time I always ask what's the point, I'll probably lose my reason before I get the real chance to change it. All the time I want to strive for greatness but I feel so lost everyday, I question myself, my reasons, my responsibilities. It's weird but I hate and love myself almost equally. Really my only motivation through life has been hatred and spite, I'm just an emotional person who never got the chance to really express myself. I don't hate or spite anyone it's mainly towards myself and feeling like a coward if I were to just end it. I've tried a few times but I never fully went through with it, I want to live but right now I feel there's nothing to live for except my grandparents. I'll be 18 in 2 months and I have a security job lined up for me but the only reason I'm taking it is so I can help my grandparents, they've taken care of me my whole life and I feel like such a piece of shit because I haven't been able to get a job since I'm a drop out who's trying to get his ged. All I want is to help but I can't help anyone if I can't even help myself. I'm sorry for ranting like this in the comment section but I'm trying my best right now and I don't feel like it's enough.
Never had such a random channel pop up in my feed, making me think. Shit, this dude is reeeeally into something.
Stay on the grind G!
Am I the only one laying awake in bed 3 am feeling depressed and watching these kinds of videos 😔
Before I joined the company I work for right now, I used to get motivated and inspired to do shit for myself as a programmer, but now that I work as a software developer, I get home and I can't get myself to code anymore. I work with what I love, or rather what I used to love back then. The lost of motivation makes it so hard to find motivation in other things, I used to stream and create videos, but with time I simply lost the motivation to continue because of how exhausted I get after work. Maybe one day I'll overcome this and manage to find something new to inspire me into good things.
Let these feelings push you to do stuff for YOU. The future version of yourself will thank the present you
One of the best things a man can do is invest in himself. Dedicate an hour a day to workout, plan, learn, or schedule a day trip outdoors for the weekend. Break your norm. Control your current controllables. Money will come and go. Thank God for your present. His path is always working the way it should. Prayers so everyone here ❤
keep working bro you got this man
As if you got a skate 3 vid bro, love it; keep switching it up with these old games man
thanks so much bro for this video. i relate a ton to pretty much everything you say
Me watching this video is realizing I’m looking up at the stars and somebody else is star gazing at the same stars as me.
skate 3 was such a sick game for its time
wish you all the best bro
I really hope you make it out man, for the sake of us all that are going through the same exact thing.
I hope everyone makes it out of the rat race
This might be the most relatable video I’ve ever seen on RUclips 🥹
A 9 to 5 is not a permanent job my guy a 9 to 5 is for yu to build your money so yu can buy the things yu need to start your own business...
Love the vid keep up. Love the videos you give me a different view on things in Life.
here before you got 100k. Good Luck on the journey bro
🫡🫡🫡
Felt this so hard. Some weeks I don't even get two days in a row off. Work drains me so much. I want to make something of my own. Not a company or anything but some way to express myself that could give me a way out of work. Work feels like it just kills all of my expressive ability
Yup yup been feeling the same way for the last two years since I graduated. 19 now and I just put my 2 weeks in and now I'm enlisting in the army because why not , the same way you put time into that job and waste away for them to even just barely appreciate you and givw you a 50 cent raise you could use that to truly do what you want i just beg you if you are ablebodied be your best self and accomplish amazing things.
Hard thing is when you have a lot of dreams and ambitions, and nobody at all has the same energy. They look at you weird and are doubtful. It’s dead everywhere you go. Everyone has decided their fate in a dead end job. They have no time to live or enjoy life. They have no purpose or any life that fills their eyes. They are literally just waiting to die and I see this starting at ages 21 and up.
Good to see you again man
i feel this so so much, there just has to be more to life man, YT/twitch/content creation in general is filled to the brim with everybody trying to be able the next hot/viral thing, the chances are just so slim. That's why i put all my hope in the $GME (GameStop) stock, the media keeps hammering on how everybody should 'forget the meme stock' but they've been saying that for the last 4 years lmao, idk my gut feeling is just telling me that this will be something big just because how hard the media is on their backs. If you're reading this, you might think this sounds dumb af or you might think that there's indeed something brewing here. There is ton of information out there, i just bought a little bit and i'm holding, i was too late for bitcoin but i'm very early for the $GME train! EARLY, NOT WRONG! (DRS that shit)
Everything is just cycles, the same old wheels going round and round but never getting anywhere. I always look forward to the weekend, then when the days arrive I just don't feel like it's enough to even wind down. Once you've managed to breathe out and relax it's gone as soon as it came.
But what do you do when there is no spark left in you? I lack dreams and ambitions. I have nothing to aim for, so I end up doing the same shit, day in and day out. All I do in my spare time is just sitting home and playing video games or other form of entertainment, just trying to relax. But there's always that gnawing sensation in the back of my mind, it all feels hollow at the end of the day because there's no progression. Just mindlessly running on the hamster wheel without a destination in sight.
I even do what I'm supposed to: Work to earn money, eat healthy and workout five days a week to get fit, being kind to others, etc. I have a loving family, a good job, I'm healthiest and fittest I've ever been. But at the end of the day what does it matter when you don't know who you are or what you want to do? My own reflection isn't even myself anymore, just a blurry figured of someone who used to be me. But the worst part is not knowing what piece of myself I'm missing.
I'm just afraid that I won't be able to find a spark to light up a fire in my soul. I'm just that kid from back then, just a kid that didn't know how to adapt to the growing adult world I guess.
I’m slowly coming to the realisation that video games is a slight coping mechanism. Like I still play them a shit tonne but it really is an escape from reality, just like a drug. I suggest just starting a note and just writing shit down that you want to do and expanding on them. It can really help put things into perspective
@@oncefaded Yeah I've very much noticed that too now that I've grown older. I guess I just didn't want to realize it until now.
Change is a scary thing and it's hard to break out from your comfort zone, but I can't put it on hold forever. I'll give it a shot. Thank you!
@@oncefaded This 100 percent, the days just merge into one another and like I don't work a structured week really so my mum has shown me what she finds works for her and it makes sense, basically like journalling what you've done each day and what you still have to do. Make a list for the week or month ahead and maybe discipline yourself to not treat to other things which are time wasting activities until you get a few things on the list done each day
I’m 32 goin thru this now. I was the opposite put everything in my craft in my 20s w photography and being a “starving artist” was such a grind but the older I got ij needed to have something more sustainable. I still do both and photo my passion. I’m just tired :/
Sorry to hear that bro. I wish you the best and don't lose your passion to your job. it's not worth it
6 - 6 most days with Saturday work too 5 hours, it’s deteriorating just work, eat, sleep I also just want to go skating too which helps me keep sane but got no time to do it, nearly 30 bout time I do something for myself I say, I’m resigning tomorrow, life isn’t long do what you want to do with it, cool vid
Good luck with whatever you’re going to do bro 🫡
feeling the exact same way
Not saying this to seem negative, edgy or for attention. Maybe just relatability.
I remember back when I was 13, having a mental breakdown for the first time and falling into a depression that I didn't manage to get out of until 4 years later. I remember my mindset back then and the way I looked at things. It's sort of clique but it's like looking back on somebody you don't recognise. But I guess the funny thing is that I ended up (now) becoming what I hated (back then). My mindset partially had the belief that the large majority of people just cope with their lives. Living a 9 to 5 especially, the complacency of it all, all just a coping mechanism. I came to that conclusion likely because of how much I hated school, how it groomed you into being brainwashed that this is what life is all about. I remember I used to think of nothing but getting home and playing Little Big Planet or Garry's Mod back when I was a kid, or getting home and watching the latest VanossGaming, XboX Addictionz or Ryan Higa video.
It was all just a coping mechanism and I broke down when it suddenly stopped working. I remember it clear as day. I booted up my favourite game but I just didn't want to play, so I tried to play a different game but I still wasn't enjoying it. I opened up RUclips but once again, I couldn't enjoy it. I began to scroll and scroll through the videos but I was just spaced out the whole time, completely disassociating. And then I just stared at the RUclips logo, just focusing on nothing but the logo. I think I sat there in dead silence for about a minute before I began to break down out of nowhere.
Back to the topic at hand, I remember having this anger towards how school 'planned' your life, I absolutely despised the phrase "what do you want to do with your life?" because all it sets up is an expectation for a life of work in the context of school getting you ready to go into the workforce. As I say, I've become what I hated. I used to think "I don't care what happens, I'll never let myself become a sheep who works every day of his life", but that's just too easy for a 14-15 year old kid to say. I now work a standard 9-5 office job. I don't hate it. Good pay, good benefits, good support and access to facilities, etc. But then I watch something like this and I feel like my very own green goblin is on my shoulder saying "You make me sick".
I spent my early childhood living in the countryside. In my country that means a lot of green forests and fields. Life felt so free back then. I'd run up to my neighbours house who owned a few acres of land and he'd let me borrow his dirt buggy and I'd rip around a massive field in a 600cc buggy... at 6 years old! I mean, what a badass kid I was. Just with everything that's happened in my life it feels like a different person. Constantly trying to chase what was because the future seems too dull to aspire to be greater, just a complete lack of hope for success beyond the norm. I'm not that old despite being in my 20's now, but I just feel so tired. I used to watch a guy named Shiey check out his videos if you'd like. First video I ever watched of his was from his first (summer) trip to Chernobyl (he went back a year later during the winter), in which he crosses a shallow river and evades military patrols and official tourist rides and just... explores the abandoned area. And this guy still does shit like this. It's just mind-blowing... no it's mind-numbing knowing that somewhere out there, somebody is working their 9 to 5 shift in an office while that guy climbs a mountain or manages to sneak into an abandoned underground cold war military bunker. And the fact that many others do the same, but just don't record it. I believe that he streamed at one point and answered questions regarding his psychology. Same ideas with school and what not. To me, it just seems so impossible. Like OnceFaded says, I've just never taken a leap before.
I usually like to write these long comments for myself and then I end up deleing them once all is said and done. But I think I'll take a "leap" and actually post this comment. 😆
You got this bro! And I love shiey and gifgas like I feel like they could have now money but still just be doing what they love
Find God he’s real. Your life won’t instantly change but a year from now you’ll have that feeling you’re searching for.
69th like. bro's hitting a consistent upload schedule now with the existential vids. I fuck with it.
I started RUclips because TheIMightyHutch, and Optic Gaming. Dreamed of being and Optic/FaZe Sniper. Ended up editing as well. useful skill still use it as I taught myself most of it along with find another channel which I still LOVE BakerTuts
Jesus, that was too close. I was the 250th insta follower, lol. I almost didn't make it. Anyway, I wish the best to you, m8. Good luck!
Real quick, you got an awesome voice and accent.
I feel you man. I feel you. I'd write more but I need to get back to work. Much love
🥲🥲🥲
Man this couldnt be more relatable now. 2 days ago I started at my first full time job. But I have been trying to make it with trading forex for 8 months. Being in that shitty job motivates the hell out of me to make it in trading. I dont know you but I wish you the best and I can tell that with that mindset you have, you are going to make it
Wish you the best too brother. With whatever you’re trying to do
HVAC + RUclips my way. I don’t need to escape the 9-5. I genuinely want to help people’s home + help people on RUclips.
You cant work 9-5 but there's an important part. You cant work 9-5 FOR SOMEONE ELSE.
Ever get that feeling where you cant stop 'working' on something because you love it so much?
Thats what you need to try monetise (imo). Thats where fulfillment, joy and earning a living come from.
There are so many other things outside of a typical 9-5 and its a shame people don't attempt to pursue them.
Hey man been loving these videos one recommendation I’ve got is to change up the background music though. As much as I love need 2 some variety would be nice
Was literally thinking the same thing. I gotchu
Fuckin new favourite creator. Thanks for another life vid man
Gotchu bro 🫡
My dream was skateboarding at some point but the level of skill is very high now
The cool part is its not even entirely about skill. Try skateboarding and record your process, people will watch for YOU. And if you don't want to make content out of it then just focus on your own progress, and now what the experts are doing. You got this man
I wish u all the best bro
Rest in peace to that dude, pizza party for remembering a life is vile and sad.
So so so f*cked up I don't wish that on you or I
@@oncefaded Wish that on nobody. pinnacle of corporate apathy.
Rn I have a job full time and go to university full time. I want to be a content creator in so many different spaces but I have to suppress that expressive side of my personality because I have to put the important things like school and work first. once I get a way better salary I’ll then just use the money I earn to do what I love and be myself and invest in myself bc I’ve never had the chance to
Sometimes waiting is the worse thing you can do bro. What if you never get a “way better salary”. May as well start now!
Thanks buddy! i appreciate you i hope you get out the rat race bro❤
That logo goes crazy bro put it on a sweat and I’ll cop it
Coming real soon 🫡
I’m 20 and I feel the same, I’m in college and work part time, doing quite well for myself and my age. I’ve got a few qualifications and I’m not entirely broke where im starving for money, but all the courses I did and am doing in college I’m just like. Am I really gonna have to do one of this forever, I tried the TikTok avenue and it didn’t work really plus lost passion. Kinda just lost I don’t want to work 9-5 rest of my life I want to travel but how?
What sort of type beats were you making? I got into making beats in 2017 and it's stuck with me ever since. I wish I could make more money from it, but I suck at marketing and promotions, I hate the self promo stuff, cause it feels so forced and so cringe doing it, I just can't be assed with it. I stick to my small niche corner of underground soundcloud lol.
I hope you see this. So many people are okay with living a normal life. What makes you all different is the fact you see the value you have but just don't know where to put it. This might not be ur answer but David Goggins was my answer along with jiu-jitsu 10x a week. Discipline ur mind, try things you arnt comfortable doing and do it every day. New opportunities will arise. You will have new connections/ opportunities. That's how life works. And as long as you do what you're supposed every single day if it's even eating/ eating clean: walking/ running. God will reward you as long as you do what ur supposed to. God bless. 🇺🇸
Crazy everything you feel is how i feel smh
