Art in the video by the wonderful Yvonne aka Bunselle! She can do many styles and you can check here out here: www.bunselle.com/ instagram.com/buns.elle/ Best of luck to everyone trying to accomplish extraordinary things (as long as they don't harm others, haha). I really appreciate everyone watching either way. Have a wonderful day!
I would love if you could do a video on trying to accomplish these things when dealing with life circumstances, for example dealing with ADHD and caring for disabled family. I know you cared for a family member, which must have been very difficult. Sometimes there doesn't seem to be enough time in the day to work on a passion project, or on a day when there is time, one can easily feel frozen and overwhelmed by how much there needs to be accomplished in order to reach a goal. Love your videos and your calming voice! Thank you for your work!
And that's what I love about this channel, about this person. He really gets me in the mood to try out new exercises and go to the gym. Nothing that the weird gym motivation channels that show bodybuilders train with rave and hardcore electronic music playing in the background and their try harder, no excuse, mentality could ever achieve.
I believe this man has learned how to extinguish his ego. He's humble, down to earth, and straightforward. Characteristics we don't see too often in modern society. I appreciate the content.
You inspire me to be kinder and more authentic as you exude empathy and an emotional intelligence that's both honest, encouraging and constructive to apply to ones own life. Bleas you dude, and keep on being amazing ! 🙏🏾
I want to go to the us because thats where i was born, i live in argentina, im 23, i want to go to make a lot of money selling my art in various ways that Im currently doing in this country, so when i get the money ill go back to Argentina and launch my passion project which is to shoot a series of a story i wanted to share since 2019, so i think i got my goals set for the future, all i do these days is working on the goals for the present and eventually i will be right where i need to be
Thank you Hampton! Enjoyed the video. I was kind of off track a couple times, and it’s like second or third time you help me. You make everything look simpler. Thank you!
This video came at a perfect time, I really want to do great things and people who have a passion are very lucky. I realize I just want to help as many people as I can now, but I don't know how. Im 17 and im just going into college. im thinking about starting a UNICEF club and raising money, but i dont feel like thats good enough. I want to choose a career where I can help people, but i really dont know what career i can do. Id like to be a doctor but id just end up cure diseases in the US where people are already pretty well off, and treating people overseas wont do much, youd need to help establish healthcare services locally in those communities. I just dont know what to do to help as many people as i can, or who I can talk to about finding a way.
College is a great way to find the answer to that question that is right for you. Try every club and subject that remotely interests you. What you describe is often spoken about in social work as a spectrum of helping individuals versus creating systemic changes. Both are important, and different people are more suited to different places on that spectrum. There’s an analogy that is given in that field that often helps me remember the difference. You are walking along the side of a river. You suddenly see a baby floating down the river. You jump in and save the baby. But then you see another. Then another and another and another. So many babies are floating down the river, you can’t save them all. Some get by you. Suddenly, you wonder where are these babies coming from, so you climb out of the river and run along the bank until you find a factory that is sending babies into the river. Logically, it makes the most sense to try to solve the problem at its root. However, in doing so, many of the individual babies will die before you can make the change. That’s why, when social work or public policy is done well, it strives to both help individuals and create systemic change. Sorry for this long reply. I hope whatever you decide you are able to make the world a better place. ✌️🍀🙏
@@zachparade2791 No, thank you for the long reply! I really appreciate that you took the time to write this out! It gave me some insight andIll definitely do my best to get involved in college, and I really hope to find a fulfilling career. May I ask, whats your career and how did you decide on it?
@be419 Yes, I will tell you a bit of my story, but I would recommend taking it as a cautionary tale of what not to do. At 13, I started martial arts and became very passionate about it. From 16 - 22, I taught martial arts at other people’s dojos. Unfortunately, I let a lot of things get in my way from owning my own dojo and went down a number of career paths that took me away from my dream. Now I will turn 45 in a few months. Life goes sooooo fast!! I’m happy to report I am finally taking real steps towards owning my own martial arts school, but I have a ton of work and obstacles to overcome to make that happen. One thing I would recommend is to always prioritize your health and fitness, regardless of what you choose for your career path. I let myself get distracted with work and not take care of my overall wellness. That is one of the obstacles I have to overcome to start my dojo. Anyway… you’re in good hands if you are listening to Hampton and following his advice. I hope this helps you in some way! Best of luck on your path! ✌️🍀🙏
One of the ways to figure this out is go and talk to people in the positions you want to be in. Talk to doctors, people in healthcare- the more you talk to people, you'll learn what aligns and you'll discover careers you didn't even know existed. Oftentimes there are careers at the intersection of different fields & you'd be surprised. + keep trying things, learn your strengths and never hesitate to ask for a position, or a job or a volunteer spot - anything you want to do & you'll learn on the job - most people do!
This was super relevant for me with some experiences over the last few weeks. I've also decided to change from the gym to your hybrid callisthenics routine after i injured my shoulder following a very high intensity routine i was set. I agree that managing health while pursuing extraordinary goals is really important 😊
I'm currently on my day 4 of starting to working out..I use hybrid program today and realize how weak I am haha oh well I will keep improve until I can do 10 clean right push up
I think chasing greatness can be a narcissistic pursuit. One thing that kind of bothers me about this message is that people tie ambition to impact or even ambition to helping others, but it's usually the opposite. Most everyone I know that is extremely ambitions, yearns for greatness, or wants to do extraordinary things, wants to do it for themself, while the people that do not seek the spotlight nor are constantly investing into just themselves are the ones who make the real difference.
There's definitely some truth in what you're saying. But here's how I think about it - chasing ambition and having a positive impact on society are uncorrelated. They are just different things. All 4 combinations of the 2 variables exist. A person with high ambition must not justify their actions thinking that they will automatically have a positive impact, but ambition by itself is not a narcissistic pirsuit.
Hey man, if been a fan for a very long time now. I whas once in a bad spot in life. Not suicidal or anything.. but more money / health / relations wise.. and one of the things that helped me get healthier and in a better headspace whas you. And wanted to buy your book. But the thing is.. the book is around €30 and shipping is only €50 i was wondering if your ever going to have a distribiteur in europe. (Sorry if my english sucks lol. Not my main language.)
Dont babyyour body but save abuse it like hiting fall also keep it active by not easy exercises and stretching and by fuling it with healthy proper natural fud suplies pls see this cus weak humans are not appealing
LOVE YOU BROTHER. PLEASE READ BUDDHA TEACHINGS FROM "THERAVADA" SOURCES ALONGSIDE BIBLICAL MORALITY. THAT WOULD HELP YOUR PEN MOULD BETTER LETTERS. PLEASE 🎉🎉
I always think "you never will do anything extraordinary". But I am a ER Nurse. I saved so many lifes as part of a team and often alone, but because I get paid for it, it feels like something "ordinary", because it is something that is expected from me.
As someone saved multiple times by multiple nurses, i can attest to the value of your everyday contribution. What you do routinely can also be extraordinary.
Forgive me waxing poetic but what you do is a foundation for human survival in every civilization across history. You may not get the recognition you deserve for it but it's an everyday miracle nonetheless. So thank you.
My mother in law is an ER nurse. It is certainly extraordinary work that you both do. It's the least "ordinary" job I can think of, aside from maybe the odd honest politician. Nurses are unsung heroes, thank you for your contributions to the health of humanity 💛
I started actually improving myself yesterday after being subscribed for a while (I was procrastinating before I realized how miserable my life was) and I thank you for guiding me through this now
There nothing like the realization of how miserable life is when you're constantly procrastinating. It's the best motivation, I too have completed all the workout I had for this week.
that's good to hear,I really hope you are happy. I am currently trying to be the best version of me I can and have been for a while, I still really struggle with procrastination and a whole list of other things and I have a way to go . I really want to improve other aspects of my life too because I am really not happy with a lot of things, especially things out of my control because of my age and that makes it difficult
Hamptons a humble hero is todays hyper opinionated world. We can learn far more than physical fitness from this man. Thank you for what you do, and more importantly, the way you do it.
I used to want to do extraordinary things but as i get older i just want to build a life worth remembering. I dont want to look back at the decisions ive made and feel regret. Some of the goals we chase in life will move us away from loved ones and into a new way of life, new hobbies and new people. Sometimes the grass isnt always greener on the other side and things can never truly go back to the way they were. Foresight is incredibly tricky
As an autistic person, being misunderstood is my sole existence. From time to time is quite hard, it's not like I'm trying too hard. Living in this world is already a extraordinary thing I do. I really appreciate your content, I constantly feel bad for not being able to add exercise to my routine as much as I'd like to. But your videos are a reminder that I should be gentler to myself.
100% right! The value of honest introspection cannot be over estimated. Like he said, you need to pause and think about WHY you think or feel a certain way and then resolve to change what needs to be changed. ALL adults are capable of this.
Hampton, can I just say it strikes me every time how effortlessly inclusive and considered you are in all your language! I know it is not effortless, but to make it so natural is exactly how it gets normalised and repeated and THAT, my friend, is extraordinary!
I don't want to do extraordinary things, I just want to do ordinary things with less misery, but I really appreciate having the varied advice for different people's goals!
Hampton, I just wanted to remind you that you are doing extraordinary things: you are inspiring others to be better. Nowadays, that is extraordinary. Thank you so much for this. (sorry for my bad english, I am not a fluent yet)
Out of curiosity, were you a "gifted" child? I ask because I was very good in school and never learned how to cope with failing or struggling as a child or teen and am having to learn it in my 30's to improve. Regardless, I hope you find what you need!
In many cases you'll be terrible before you're good, and good before you're (maybe) great. If this is something you struggle with, I'd say pick a hobby you really like and see it through for a set period of time (say, a year.) Enjoy it regularly, knowing you can quit after the end date. See what happens! If it turns out the hobby wasn't for you, at least you learned to see something through. Good luck! 🙂
I used to think the same until a friend of mine pointed out that I switch around hobbies so much because what I like about them is learning. Now I just say my hobby is learning, and my goal isn't being exceptional at everything, just average at way more things than most people, which is being exceptional itself. I don't know if that's relevant for you but hopefully it helps
Great video. Spent my life thinking I was wrong for wanting to work (for money) as little as possible so that I could spend my time wandering the earth, spending time with family, seeing and studying places of history (which I love). Listen to yourself, make it happen. Yes, listen to wisdom from others but in the end are you true to the person God made? We aren't all created to be 16 hr 7 days a week business people, and that's perfectly fine.
I’m finally at a point where this is the life I have built and it is quite something to see people try to wrap their heads around me turning down money in favour of working in the hot sun on my parents’ property for room and board. Like, sometimes you just want to be able to build a life and that’s enough 🤷
@@Lari-lc3zq Seriously. Do what you feel you should. I did what others thought I should. Big mistake. Great to hear you're not being a slave to what others think. Blessings!
Yeah, I just want to hike a mountain when I'm 90. Which is pretty extraordinary in itself when you think that most 90yr olds struggle to get off the couch
You are correct and now that I am older, I need to pay more attention to being exhausted. The new phase of my life is crashing in on me and I am exhausted sooner because I did not address my exhaustion from the previous phase. When I am tired it's like a wall now instead of a minor annoyance. Pay attention to this so you can prioritize your selfcare quicker
I'm happy not to be extraordinary...I'm super glad I don't have the drive to be something special...that drive is, very often a sinkhole for happiness and the living of a good life. It's especially bad for a person if they don't have the talent that is required to reach the heights of their chosen field. No thanks, heres to be nothing special. Great video as always sir, thank you for it.
Mentor? Lmao nobody is going to spend time mentoring you. If you have a tutor or a mentor you are lucky. The rest of us just have to grit our teeth and learn by ourselves.
this is quite a good life video. i would say though talking with others... some of the time people just dont care. seeking validation from others is a dead end. i learned computers in the 1980s when i was told it was a fad. i bought bitcoin in 2011 when people told me i was an idiot. oh well.
This is a wonderful video and painful for me at the same time. Ever since I was a teenager I felt the urge to improve myself be better at something, be great at something but I got PTSD. And if there's something that can hold you back from progress it's trauma, until you find the right therapist your will and strength can do nothing for improvement. To me there's nothing worse than wanting to excel, improve even, but being held back by something out of my control. Your video reminds me to not give up on that feeling, even though it's painful at the moment. Thank you for that
From an autistic person with PTSD - my life might look ordinary, but it has taken tremendous effort to get where I am. I am proud of what I have achieved, even though I spend practically every day spinning my wheels. If I make progress one day out of a month, I'm not going backwards. That is impressive for me. I healed my depression and had three beautiful children, by Just. Keeping. On. I believe that, while I don't have impressive strength or intelligence or have broken any records, I have an impressive spirit. I have endured a lot of suffering, and I have an unbreakable will. The day I shed this body, I will see those spiritual gains. When I am not held back by chronic pain or chronic fatigue anymore, it will be like taking off the extra weight and suddenly realizing my true strength. "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:31
Ngl youve already done some extraordinary things and thought so many people about life. Keep going wanting to achieve more is natural. But dont forget to always look back on what youve achieved
These were mostly things I knew but hearing them said by someone else helped me process it and it inspired me. Thanks! I think these are important things to say to people with ambition. I think you're doing great work!
Your videos are such a breath of fresh air, such a relief, even the way you talk, from the very moment I see your thumbnail, your face, it evokes a hope that "ok I might have stumbled upon some relief here". So thanks! Again!
Hola amigo, me encantan tus videos eres de lo mejor de internet, bien por ti! Puedes agregar subtitulos en español? Llegarías a más público. Consulta, estás en Canadá o Estados Unidos? Gracias y sigue así. Salud💪
You beautiful, smart, kind, amazing man. Thank you. Truly. You’ve given me as well as many people the push they need. Have a beautiful day hampton. You’re going to go so far in life with this demeanor. Best human honestly.
On the part of hitting your work threshold if you know what you want to do. Pay attention to your recovery speed, it may surprise you how quickly you can get back to your goal.
Hampton, thank you! Nothing wrong with striving to be extraordinarily happy (content). While I never quite met some of the goals I set for myself over the years, I can definitely say I have had and am having a wonderful life.
What you said about your brother at the end, has resonated with me so deeply with my brother . I do my best and what i can with his condition, but his trials and tribulations and hardships are not all up to me to control, it is all with the grace of Allah and his planning, for who am i to doubt or deny it? Elhamdullah. Not everything is about me to fix/fixate upon. Everyone has their own journeys and may they be as they will.
Omg this guy is so so so amazing and sharing all this great information with everyone thank you so much ❤So motivating please keep posting these videos ………
8:13 the other aspect of people thinking that way is also common amoungst people who hold onto or visualise some very concerning futures. I consider these mindsets as a tool- or like with science- the ethics/ why behind the goals is key. Cognitive biases are fascinating
The most digestible sweet pea!!🗣️🗣️ this was a great video man. A lot of people don’t understand that humans usually want to be great at something because it’s fulfilling and fun, not because it’s important for the world. I like calisthenics, being a chef, and dark souls challenge runs. From a lot of people’s perspectives none of those things are worth pursuing, but I have been able to connect to and genuinely help other people through all of those interests.
It’s the small wins that make life good for me. Especially when that win makes another person or other people happy. The payback comes in so many different ways.

Hampton is probably 20 years younger than me, but also the type of person I aspire to be.
Age is just a construct, love that you're open to be inspired regardless😌🌼
This guy is always wholesome and genuine. ❤
Instead of saying “this is what everyone should do” he helps people decide what their own goals are and suggests how to build and achieve them
He is a real bro!
And that's what I love about this channel, about this person. He really gets me in the mood to try out new exercises and go to the gym. Nothing that the weird gym motivation channels that show bodybuilders train with rave and hardcore electronic music playing in the background and their try harder, no excuse, mentality could ever achieve.

Another factor about doing what you love for a career. If you do burn out, there is a grieving process, and you run the risk of losing that passion.
Hampton, I just wanted to remind you that you are doing extraordinary things: you are inspiring others to be better. Nowadays, that is extraordinary. Thank you so much for this.
(sorry for my bad english, I am not a fluent yet)
Every time I start a new hobby I feel like it's not worth it unless I'm extraordinary at it, so I always end up losing motivation
That sounds like a self-image issue to me. Address that and you can get lost in enjoying way more of what you do. Best of luck!
Out of curiosity, were you a "gifted" child?

I used to think the same until a friend of mine pointed out that I switch around hobbies so much because what I like about them is learning. Now I just say my hobby is learning, and my goal isn't being exceptional at everything, just average at way more things than most people, which is being exceptional itself. I don't know if that's relevant for you but hopefully it helps
@@average-team-kid Nice re-frame!
We've all heard about coffee with Hampton but what about tea with Hampton 🤔
Such a breath of fresh air in this world of “alpha” mentality. Thank you Hampton.
Love this shirt hamptoo ! , thank you for sharing your thoughts !!!💙
This is EXACTLY what I needed today
I need that shirt, anywhere I can buy it?
Great video. Spent my life thinking I was wrong for wanting to work (for money) as little as possible so that I could spend my time wandering the earth, spending time with family, seeing and studying places of history (which I love).
Listen to yourself, make it happen. Yes, listen to wisdom from others but in the end are you true to the person God made? We aren't all created to be 16 hr 7 days a week business people, and that's perfectly fine.
I’m finally at a point where this is the life I have built and it is quite something to see people try to wrap their heads around me turning down money in favour of working in the hot sun on my parents’ property for room and board. Like, sometimes you just want to be able to build a life and that’s enough 🤷
@@Lari-lc3zq Seriously. Do what you feel you should. I did what others thought I should. Big mistake. Great to hear you're not being a slave to what others think.
Blessings!
From an autistic "stay at home" mom, you don't know how right you are lol ❤️
Yeah, I just want to hike a mountain when I'm 90. Which is pretty extraordinary in itself when you think that most 90yr olds struggle to get off the couch
You are correct and now that I am older, I need to pay more attention to being exhausted. The new phase of my life is crashing in on me and I am exhausted sooner because I did not address my exhaustion from the previous phase. When I am tired it's like a wall now instead of a minor annoyance. Pay attention to this so you can prioritize your selfcare quicker
Working my way to a 200 meter rock climb. Is that extraordinary?😊
I'm happy not to be extraordinary...I'm super glad I don't have the drive to be something special...that drive is, very often a sinkhole for happiness and the living of a good life. It's especially bad for a person if they don't have the talent that is required to reach the heights of their chosen field. No thanks, heres to be nothing special.
Great video as always sir, thank you for it.
Mentor? Lmao nobody is going to spend time mentoring you. If you have a tutor or a mentor you are lucky. The rest of us just have to grit our teeth and learn by ourselves.
this is quite a good life video. i would say though talking with others... some of the time people just dont care. seeking validation from others is a dead end. i learned computers in the 1980s when i was told it was a fad. i bought bitcoin in 2011 when people told me i was an idiot. oh well.
love hampton's shirt
A good human being
Dude. After watching pewds latest video this got recommended to me. This really make me want to push harder and be consistent and stay committed.
Thank you brother, i wish to be your friend. I would say you are a philospher. Because you are serching for the right way to live.
aka: have a system, not (just) a goal
Wonderful video but the thing that caught my eyes is your t-shirt. I need to buy that ASAP 😂
I thought that too.
Nice music for the subject 😊
This is a wonderful video and painful for me at the same time. Ever since I was a teenager I felt the urge to improve myself be better at something, be great at something but I got PTSD. And if there's something that can hold you back from progress it's trauma, until you find the right therapist your will and strength can do nothing for improvement. To me there's nothing worse than wanting to excel, improve even, but being held back by something out of my control. Your video reminds me to not give up on that feeling, even though it's painful at the moment. Thank you for that
From an autistic person with PTSD - my life might look ordinary, but it has taken tremendous effort to get where I am. I am proud of what I have achieved, even though I spend practically every day spinning my wheels. If I make progress one day out of a month, I'm not going backwards. That is impressive for me. I healed my depression and had three beautiful children, by Just. Keeping. On.
I believe that, while I don't have impressive strength or intelligence or have broken any records, I have an impressive spirit. I have endured a lot of suffering, and I have an unbreakable will. The day I shed this body, I will see those spiritual gains. When I am not held back by chronic pain or chronic fatigue anymore, it will be like taking off the extra weight and suddenly realizing my true strength.
"But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint."
Isaiah 40:31
@@Ayverie4 Thanks for your reply, it's an empowering way to look at the situation
Ngl youve already done some extraordinary things and thought so many people about life. Keep going wanting to achieve more is natural. But dont forget to always look back on what youve achieved
These were mostly things I knew but hearing them said by someone else helped me process it and it inspired me. Thanks! I think these are important things to say to people with ambition. I think you're doing great work!
Hello Hampton
Amazing video but it's very fast paste, can you please slow things down in the next one
Your videos are such a breath of fresh air, such a relief, even the way you talk, from the very moment I see your thumbnail, your face, it evokes a hope that "ok I might have stumbled upon some relief here". So thanks! Again!
Keep in mind that if you take one of your hobbies and turn it into a job, you might end up hating that hobby. Better to be carefull with this.
Thx ❤
Hola amigo, me encantan tus videos eres de lo mejor de internet, bien por ti!

I am glad I came back to this channel. Wonderful message.
You beautiful, smart, kind, amazing man.
Thank you. Truly. You’ve given me as well as many people the push they need.
Have a beautiful day hampton. You’re going to go so far in life with this demeanor. Best human honestly.
I just wanna be extraordinary bc of my little girl. Otherwise I'd be totally fine being ordinary.
On the part of hitting your work threshold if you know what you want to do. Pay attention to your recovery speed, it may surprise you how quickly you can get back to your goal.
As always, beautifully thought out and explained!
Hampton, thank you! Nothing wrong with striving to be extraordinarily happy (content). While I never quite met some of the goals I set for myself over the years, I can definitely say I have had and am having a wonderful life.
What you said about your brother at the end, has resonated with me so deeply with my brother . I do my best and what i can with his condition, but his trials and tribulations and hardships are not all up to me to control, it is all with the grace of Allah and his planning, for who am i to doubt or deny it? Elhamdullah. Not everything is about me to fix/fixate upon. Everyone has their own journeys and may they be as they will.
Omg this guy is so so so amazing and sharing all this great information with everyone thank you so much ❤So motivating please keep posting these videos ………
Click bait got me.
I'm here to do something extra. ordinarily I don't. 🎉
Hi Hampton! Have you ever looked into or tried EMS training? I'm curious to hear your thoughts on it
8:13 the other aspect of people thinking that way is also common amoungst people who hold onto or visualise some very concerning futures.
I consider these mindsets as a tool- or like with science- the ethics/ why behind the goals is key.
Cognitive biases are fascinating
i wanna reach to body shape like you have with just fight training ... cause i like exactly your form .. and i love marital arts
I love you Hampton.You're my bro crush💙
Great video .Some moments you just told my inner thoughts 😂.❤
I'm interested in your new book. Your ruthless positiveness and optimism is intriguing! Hoping it comes out soon
Thank you my friend!💗🙏❤️✝️🙏💕
Good people of the world, unite.
Man, I love your channel
Hi MFs! 😂 Love that shirt. Grateful for you!! 🙏🏻
Being above average will seem extraordinary for the average person, but being above average is pretty easy.
If you want a coach or mentor speak to your parents first. They want to help. They really do.
The most digestible sweet pea!!🗣️🗣️
this was a great video man. A lot of people don’t understand that humans usually want to be great at something because it’s fulfilling and fun, not because it’s important for the world. I like calisthenics, being a chef, and dark souls challenge runs. From a lot of people’s perspectives none of those things are worth pursuing, but I have been able to connect to and genuinely help other people through all of those interests.
It’s the small wins that make life good for me. Especially when that win makes another person or other people happy. The payback comes in so many different ways.
I love your shirt! Thank you for advice 😊
Hampton is too pure for this world.
That shirt got me in the first half 😅
Thank you for your kind words and encouragement.
I aspire to he luke you ! Thanks ! - from George jr.
You film your videos in such a beautiful place 😊.
Fantastic, Hampton.
You have imparted more genuine help here than you may (or may not) know.
First we do it by passion then it becomes frustration and you hate what you become
I wish I was like Hampton. My life feels so worthless.
