The first week of this confinement was rough for almost everyone. We didn't know what to expect. But now that it's been a week, we can readily expect how things are going to play out. Who knows whether this will last for a week, a month, or 3 months. Regardless, take this time to focus inward and grow yourself in whatever way you prefer. Greatness is coming.
By the time this quarantine ends, I'll be the fucking legend .. As I'm commited to expand my knowledge and wisdom, become physically fyt, explore my own mental and spritual horizons, bulid my character and personality and above all, make ties stronger with my family(the people who really matters). Now, you have time and choices, be wise with both of them .. Love from Pakistan .. Stay safe, stay home
perfect timing for this video don't just watch paint dry in this social isolation period it's those who have the mentality of using times like these wisely who will ultimately succeed in the long run
*Running is such an incredible form of activity - boosts BDNF, releases dopamine/endorphins, torches calories, has meditation-like properties, can be done anywhere at anytime*
Recently I've started making videos only with my phone. After watching this video I realized limited resources actually made me learn so much about the the topic of making videos than I actually would have if had the right equipment.
@@CaptainSinbad Btw, this video reminds of that stoicism video you did a while back. It was about that boxer Rubin "Hurricane" Carter and how he transformed himself (both mentaly and physicaly) during his time in prison.
"Get busy living or get busy dying" is a quote that stuck with me all these years after watching the movie Shawshank Redemption. GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS!!!
I Love it. I was feeling the same, something that I have never felt before, I have been writing a lot, on philosophy, on Metaphysics, on sociology, on Law (because I am a lawyer), I have been coming up with so many good ideas in this phase😄
Hey nikhil have been following your channel since months. You have grown really well Kudos. Wishing from Delhi,India Keep up the good work You are motivating thousands
Sipping my morning coffee as I watch this. This time of isolation and confinement is the perfect time for deep inner work. If this virus is a once in a generation event I will make the most of it. Great video
Dear captainsinbad Recently I have been watching your videos and I must say, discovering your channel is one of the best thing that happened to me in recent months. And I wondered if you had ever thought of doing podcasts as you are eloquently spoken and well obviously educated. Just a thought
Thank you. This video is like a miracle that answered the question I have been struggling with, I have a lot of thing's against me right now, I have one of the worst mental illness (BPD) I was Extremely confined, and Isolated before the Corona virus. Each day is a struggle to try to make improvements wherever I can, and unfortunately I somehow Got to the point where I was going to impulsively make my 6th sucide attempt tonight. I was blessed by God to have someone who understood imidiatly read my message, and somehow managed to get me off that ledge with one sentence. Then the second miracle happened, I see your video, and you tell me how to use everything that has been causing me pain is the best advantage I have over everyone else.
I liked the way you dissect things and then support the fragments of your argument with extremely compelling facts. I find this style of yours to be very unique and unprecedented on this platform barring a select few. I wouldn't be surprised if you quickly rise to the top of your game and would in fact be elated that such unconventional content is finally getting its deserved acclamation. Godspeed !!! P.S. Apologies for my incorrect grammar if any (English is my third language)
I am seriously enjoying the quarantine it has allowed me to do lots of things I wante to do for a long time: I've watched many philosophical debates which helped me finding arguments that sustain what I believe in topics such as morality that otherwise would have remained unattended. Also I read the book what every body is saying sth that I wanted to do for a long time and I am planning on making a good and sustainable home workout from which I'll benefit through out the year as I have no acces to a gym. Moreover (I might be getting a little bit greedy now) I'll try to start learning Python, the programming language sth that I couldn't finish. I don't want to be misinterpreted I do acknowledge the difficult situation an the upcoming reccession but knowing that staying at home is the best I can do for now, not only for my health but for others, I'll make sure to get the most out of it
That's a good way to look at it. Moments like this can certainly lead to growth and new understanding, and it certainly will, both in a small scale and at large as a society. May you stay safe, Nikhil
Refreshing to see. I started walking 5 miles a day a week ago just to improve on workout discipline and to fill time (gym closing as well). After doing so you kick yourself for not starting it sooner. New opportunities come in confinement, crazy thing is I was watching your videos before the outbreak and so I felt it's time to maximize these disciplines even more in this period. Great things are ahead. Keep up the awesome videos.
Thank you for the great video! I am a university student in photography and for us this lockdown couldn't have come at a worse time since now all students are forced to find another way to finish their projects. But we should indeed look at our confinement from another perspective. This situation is our time to let our creativity loose and not a time to feel sorry for ourselves
I love the way your videos convey huge messages in a very simple and understandable manner. Your videos really helped me in many aspects of my life and hoping to see your content soon...
Thank you for this video. I get laid off because of this covid pandemic, and what I'm used to doing is making sure I have a job lined up. I'm now looking to take a break from that mentality and be more creative with myself in this isolation period, now that I have all this time.
This philosophy is found all throughout hip hop... the very art of sampling came from rappers who had a lack of equipment (especially pianos, drums, and other live instruments) and had to come up with ways to make beats. As a creative solution they started taking drum breaks, melodies, and chords from other songs (often from the 60s-70s) and using them to create beats to rap over. This was an alchemic process as well because hip hop artists were often taking samples from rare or not well known songs and turning them into hits (i.e. musical gold). Just goes to show how creative we can be when limitations are put on us.
Maybe people start to realize how they can spend their time other ways rather than just being on internet and being lazy. I started to read books and meditate again and also eating less and less food my mind is sharper when being hungry it makes you stronger thou, controlling appetite is most hardest thing for me so mb i benefit this situation losing weight, i dont wanna go shopping because there could be infected people, also i dont buy all toilet paper 😂💩
Man, what a thought provoking video. I appreciate the research and time you put into this. The last line of this vid is true! Definitely for yourself and hopefully for those watching! Cheers!
Great video! You really give that needed motivation boost, or a new perspective on a problem we're currently dealing with. Never be satisfied with passivity, my friends!
Where do you find all these great and relevant stories? Very well done on your research. I haven’t heard very many people speaking about the benefits of constraint and what a very relevant topic for this current time. I love how you bring your love of film into your topics. I never thought of a character in confinement as a story arc, but now that you point it out I guess I really like those kinds of stories too.
Great vid brah. Trying a Sledgehammer workout today going to be slamming an old tire with the hammer like a wild beast, been doing calisthenics for years it is so good. Functional healthy longterm natural strength and endurance. No disproportionate muscle building, full body gets fit. It’s free, too
Came for the hilarious impersonation videos. Leaving educated/inspired... Earned yourself one new subscriber! "When you take the lasers of your mind..." hmmm
Love your videos. Look forward to them everyday... Never followed a single channel like I follow yours. Thank you for your encouragement, helped me make change in my own life for the better.
For those interested, the background music is Bet on it by Silent Partner. You can find this track and use it for free in your RUclips videos. I have used this track a few times in my chess videos.
I don't know why, but I feel that the writing and the narration has been the best that you've ever done in a video till date. Cheers to that and take care.
I'm on one month of NOFAP. Not a huge difference in my life but some noticeable changes. A small boost in confidence and drive. Looking to extend for at least one more month.
Hey man, enjoy your videos and have been following for a while. Just a suggestion as I've seen you improved your lighting significantly, I think a nice backdrop would take your videos to the next level.
Max Payne the first game, was on low production, so they had to implement comic style storytelling cutscenes instead of actual animated ones. And the writer himself had to play Max Payne. That style of unique storytelling is what Max Payne series is now revered for.
Whether you choose to see every day as an opportunity or a curse, you’ll always be right.
absolutely. the intention we set is huge.
Damn, this quote is gonna be in my year book haha

definitely hard to get adjusted to.
Actually the Coronavirus is gonna stay for upwards of 4 years but the quarantines are probably gonna be on and off in the next couple of years

Now, you have time and choices, be wise with both of them ..
Love from Pakistan .. Stay safe, stay home
It all starts in the mind.
Your beliefs will control your outcome.
perfect timing for this video
don't just watch paint dry in this social isolation period
it's those who have the mentality of using times like these wisely who will ultimately succeed in the long run

Same my friend
Adopt the pace of nature, her secret is patience.
isolation has got my creativity distracting me from school work.. but I'm not complaining. great video man.
haha I can relate
Captain Sinbad and Matt D'avella posted at the same time. Maybe quarantine isn't so bad after all.
The shawshank redemption is one of my all time favorite movies!
same here
Honestly, great things happen only when you place confinement on your goals.
When you have limitations, you got to be resourceful!👍
Tom Hanks in Castaway.
Constraints, limitations, and scarcity can either bring out the best in us--or the worst in us. We choose which one.
I've gotten so bored, I've started working out just for fun and I've gotten better at drawing anatomy instead of wasting my time.
thats pretty great
@@CaptainSinbad Btw, this video reminds of that stoicism video you did a while back. It was about that boxer Rubin "Hurricane" Carter and how he transformed himself (both mentaly and physicaly) during his time in prison.
We have so much to learn from this experience we’re going through now. So many revelations and realizations to come. Great video, My friend!
for sure man
"Get busy living or get busy dying" is a quote that stuck with me all these years after watching the movie Shawshank Redemption.

You are motivating thousands
NEEDED THIS SO BADLY!! My city just got put on lockdown and was feeling very down. Thank for the motivation and positivity
I think introverts aren't really feeling confined at the very moment. Since they spend 97% of their times at home. LUL
coda. Introverts are not the ones who spend their time at home
@@veron2163 Enjoying staying at home, in the quiet, is a sign of introversion.

Calisthenics is harder then free weights since the weight is active not stagnant
I'm learning that
Its harder because its a heavier load and requires more stability
@@linkinmaz1 it's a heavier load if the weights are lighter than your bodyweight
Wow...never thought of it that way

In terms of confinement, i always think back to the scenes in the Dark Knight Rises where Bruce is stuck in prison after bane broke his back.
This what working out during quarantine feels like
So no one's gonna talk about the fact that he gave us some quality movie recommendations to watch in quarantine in the name of achieving greatness?
I am seriously enjoying the quarantine it has allowed me to do lots of things I wante to do for a long time: I've watched many philosophical debates which helped me finding arguments that sustain what I believe in topics such as morality that otherwise would have remained unattended. Also I read the book what every body is saying sth that I wanted to do for a long time and I am planning on making a good and sustainable home workout from which I'll benefit through out the year as I have no acces to a gym.

For me Confinement is a great time to start silently being productive and after that emerging as a new insightful person...
Cheers!😎😎 Sindbad!
That's a good way to look at it. Moments like this can certainly lead to growth and new understanding, and it certainly will, both in a small scale and at large as a society.

Do a *Watches SNEAKO Once* 😭 or Nathaniel Drew
You have sparked a desire to unlock my potential and grow exponentially. Thank you Captain!
I agree, constraints can make us more creative if we use them wisely.
This goes well with Goggins' advice, we need to use this time to become savages.
OMG! I'm so glad I found your channel. Greatness is coming 🙏 thank you for this video
