I lost 105 pounds in 2022. I quit drinking and partying and started going to the gym. In 2023, I started college. I wanted to grow not just in my personal life but in my professional as well. Between trying to balance school, work, gym, and a roommate from hell, i gained 50 pounds this year. I've moved into a quiet place with the help of my sister, and I finished my first semester of school. I have also lost 15 pounds since September. I'm finally back into the right mindset and thriving again. This video has given me the boost to start 2024 with confidence. Thanks, Leon.
you got this Sam!
Sam, you are a true inspiration. There will always be setbacks in life, but they don't define you. You've accomplished so much in such a short amount of time. Sink into it and be proud.
That is amazing. You are doing great.
Hell ya man! Crush it!
wow sounds like you got it bro
Damn dude, it's like you made this video specifically for me. I feel called out, but also extremely grateful for this incredibly unexpected but welcomed advice. Leon's lack of guruship plays to his advantage, you can look at his life, his career, his body, and see that this man knows what he's talking about because he's lived it. Thank you Leon, I feel like I really needed this.
🤝🏼
I'm only 5 minutes in, and this is already such a good message. Love it!
Appreciate you graham!
Legend
@@LeonLush definetely stuff I needed to hear. I'll be a dad very soon. And I need to be a father that can care for himself and his family
RUclipss favorite grifter
Graham how did you even make it 5 minutes? I exploded just by looking at the thumbnail
You're an absolute inspiration, dude.
Didn't expect you here
Tavarish has a criminal background people should know about, maybe Leon should cover that next?
You and Mrs. Lush have legitimately evolved into such amazing human beings. The glow up y'all have shown both mentally and physically is absolutely beautiful.
2023 was one of the best years of my life. I lost 90lbs, started lifting weights, started a business while working full time, and learned a ton of new skills. I set realistic goals with specific time lines and action plans to get there.
May 2024 be your best year yet. It is within your control. Tell your excuse making brain to shut up, work hard, and never quit. You can do it.
Love that man. Keep it going in 24 👊🏻
Just curious, what business were you able to start while working full time?
@@harrisonnelson1064 an e-commerce business. It helps that I am a software developer in the e-commerce space for my day job, but there are nearly limitless opportunities available online. My advice would be brainstorm things you know very well and work on starting an email newsletter based on the niche you know. Promote products in the newsletter, and eventually launch your own product/course.
great video man i love seeing stuff like this, you're helping tons of people!
My man Pegasus. Hope you're doing well! Happy New Year 💪
Bruh, mushroom gang! Love that Pegasus watches Leon. That's based.
Dude, I didn't know Pegasus was here? You should totally do a commentary reaction on this. I would love to hear what you think about Leon's presentation!
Love this! Thank you for sharing with us.
So true, Sir Lush. My own self-disappointment lies in the fact that I already know these things, I just stopped practicing them. Thank you for not talking down to your viewers. Thank you even more for taking a logical, matter-of-fact approach that doesn't include 'you got this!' motivational statements. I put drinking away before, I can do it again. I used to practice yoga 5-7 days per week, I can do it again. I had a clean diet for years, I can do it again. I used to cook all my meals, I can do it again. Seriously, none of this is hard. Quitting smoking after more than 30 years was fucking hard. Everything else is cake (something that is really only necessary during special occasions like birthdays and funerals). Of course, my husband's reaction to this episode was, "I just lost 30 minutes of my life," but we're letting it slide because he's adorable when he's cranky. Hats off to you for not being a dick. Happy New Year to you, Mrs. Lush, Jackson, and Nigel. Stay gold, Ponyboy.
Holy crap Leon you couldn't have uploaded at a better time, I was literally thinking what the heck I could be doing to get better. Because as of right now I'm feeling at my lowest, wanting to give up on everything and just disappear. Hopefully with your guide I can finally get some confidence and motivation to do stuff as I just sit at home doing squat all day. May 2024 be a great year to everyone, happy new year all and wish you the best! You too Leon!
Good luck dude, I started off in a very similar situation, and while I’m not now a fitness model with a movie star bedmate and a job in a Fortune 500 company, I’m doing so much better. Baby steps, you can get there. If you’re sat at home bored all day, try looking into volunteering opportunities in your area. There are generally dozens and dozens in even small towns, so you can find one that suits you. Helping others feels good, and it’s a great way to meet new people, boost your confidence, gain new skills and fill a hole in your day.
I have been depressed for a long time. This video has encouraged me in a lot of ways. Thank you Leon- for being a good person.
Bro. Been a subscriber for awhile and I needed to hear this. My mom passed last year and my father passed when I was 14. Both parents gone before 30. I needed this motivation. Thank you brodi.
I am 47, from Dublin Ireland, and have had much enjoyment viewing your content for many many years. You verbalise how reasonable people think in a hilarious way. I appreciate what you are doing here with this upload. Respect 👌👍💯
thanks for being here man!
I *have* to eat as soon as I wake up or I won't eat for the rest of the day. It's sort of a holdover from when I rehabilitated from my anorexia (5 years and going strong 💪). It's really so so important to find something that works for you. And we all slip up sometimes. But the best piece of advice I ever got was "You can either see 1 step forward and 2 steps back as a failure - or as a cha cha! 💃" Happy 2024 everyone! You got this! 🙌
Love that.
I love that saying - huge congrats on 5 years that’s amazing 🎉
I can honestly say this video is the type we need more of on YT in general. Thanks for being authentic, down to earth, and deceptively genius, Leon. You're an inspiration and deserve all of your success on and off the platform.
I needed this so much.. I’m 4 years into my recovery from a 20 year addiction to drugs, drink and anything destructive and needed something to help me take the next steps as I’ve just spent the last 6 months learning how to drive and now have my license so thank you for these ideas. I will use this video as my blueprint for 2024. Thank you so much for making this as I for one appreciate the work you did for it.
All the best to you and your family Leon for 2024 and beyond.
Coming back after 20 years gone is a beautiful thing. My BIL lost the battle after being addicted to everything under the sun for half his life. Stay strong! ❤
One day at a time bro. +24h say strong!
As a wise man once said: Your focus determines your reality. I am 32 now and this helped me a lot during my life. I also like to quote Star Wars 😄
You are not only entertaining, you are also inspiring! Sharing this with your us, your followers is such a positive message, for me anyway! Thank you,I won't give up, you also don't give up!! ❤
I love the quote " A year from now you'll wish you started today". It's helped me over the years. 😊
If I had to guess this hit home for a lot of people, thanks for sharing. I’m a drug addict with what I’ve always looked at as crippling adhd, and if I’m being honest with myself I’ve used that as the reason for my failures just because I’ve failed every time I’ve previously tried to get it in check. This video really lays out the things I need to do to start improving my situation, great motivator.
Watching this made me realize I haven't been putting in enough physical activities in my daily routines. I'm gonna have to step it up this year to hit my goal
This is like the wholesome side of the productivity bro's online. Love it!
Also died with laughter when leon went straight for hassan's jugular 😂
Absolutely love all the advice. There are several things that I have already been doing, especially being disabled and trying to get back to a normal routine as despite being disabled for eight years now on auto immune chemotherapy, which screws up my whole system and body, and definitely affects my sleep, I also went back to school this past fall just to help force my body into a routine to show up for some thing even if it was a zoom class to just sit there and listen, and it really did change a lot not only did I learn a lot because I took Law classes as I already have my associates in my bachelors in my MBA I haven’t been to school in 13 years. There is absolutely no reason for me to go back except One to learn more and to create a routine for myself and just in the past two weeks of not having school because of the holidays and still two more weeks to go my entire schedule for my body naturally is so screwed up right now because I had gotten on a great one. I love the point you made about taking time to do something you like and how it adds up and learning things. Just because you don’t take school anymore doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be working out your brain and training to learn new skills whether that is going back to school to be taught a new subject or topic or one of the mini app and courses that people can take to learn something new, I think it is extremely important especially with things like Alzheimer’s and dementia and early onset Alzheimer’s starting to be on the rise as I’ve had an aunt passed away in her 60s due to it couple years ago and now that my father is in his 70s I can definitely see some signs and between adopting two new dogs a couple months ago to take over to their house for him to be stimulated a watch as well as him doing minor tasks or errands for meis extremely important. I greatly appreciate this list. There are a couple things that I did not think of that. I absolutely will be incorporating into my life.
This video has really motivated me to get back into my routine of running/biking and focusing on my goals I’ve set out. I’ve fallen off course with the holidays and stress of switching jobs but damn do I ever miss the feeling of seeing each day being one step closer to being the best version of myself I could ever be. Thank you papa Lush for the reminder! Happy new year to you and the fam ❤ much love!
Dude, thank you so much for the genuine message and providing sound advice. Everything you brought up is a part of the foundation of happiness and living an authentic life. All of your points primarily make up the first year of counseling to my clients attempting sobriety. As well as the second year. And.... pretty much all the other years as well.. Love your channel and your passion as a creator. You help so many with laughter and COMMON SENSE - don't ever, ever stop!
Thanks Leon and Mrs Lush for your encouragement to live a cleaner and healthier life. In late 2023, my wife and I started seeing a dietician and this video definitely will help propel us into 2024! Take care and happy new year!
Thank you so this! Happy New Year to you and the Lush family :)
I actually changed my eating habits after the Lush Life video and am down 5 sizes already. Have to get a new belt because the one that didn't go all the way around before I started now is on the last hole.
Let’s fucking go!!!
I’ve been watching this channel since the very beginning, as well as lush life. Nothing makes me happier than seeing you and the mrs get better, healthier and becoming the best people and parents you can be. I dig it and I think seeing the transformation through the years has been so inspiring. Thanks for all the cool tips and insights. We appreciate you big dawg! 🤙🏻
Great inspiration, thanks for the advice for 2024!
All great suggestions! Thank you. Happy New Year to you, Mrs. Lush, and your son.
I've only recently found your channel and I've been binging all your videos like crazy!! Your insight and view on life is so relieving, you and your viewers helped me see that maybe we aren't so far off track to a "normal" society. Love your outlook on life man and I also love the way you love your wife. Keep it up and i'm excited to see where this year takes you.
Great video to end the year on, I just started watching your channel this past year and you and Mrs. Lush have become a frequent favorite for my boyfriend and I to watch. Wishing you and your family a happy new year! 🎆
Thank you for branching out to this kind of content Leon, I absolutely needed to hear all of this, I’ve applied these things to my life since the becoming of this year and i must say life has been a lot more refreshing, rewarding, and just fulfilling. So thank you for this video it was incredibly enlightening and insightful ❤️
Have been dealing with social anxiety, depression for years now, and my mom passed away recently. Thanks for posting this video. Although I already ride my bike a lot, I've always wanted to go to the gym, but have been too afraid to because of my social anxiety. I've promised myself that I'd go to one as my new years resolution. I was also prescribed SSRI pills some months ago and they've really helped with both my depression and social anxiety. This video has inspired me to try even harder. Thank you Leon. You're like a role model to me.
get a cognitive Psychologist or Psychiatrist, it's a cognition problem. try it. drugs will not work.
That's what I needed! Thank you! I wish you a healthy and happy New Year🎉
That was such an amazing video. Dude, you truly have some amazing anecdotes and I know this is going to help a lot of people including me. Thanks Leon ! 🤘🏻
DUDE amazing video. Honestly you are such a gem among youtubers. These principles radiate through every silly video you make with those random tangents candidly explaining your point of view, but it was nice to hear them all together. Apart from the smashing humour (and that glorious facial hair) it really shows how much effort there is behind what you do daily. Thanks and keep it up !!!!!
So much of this helped me, I genuinely hope I can put even just 1 of these things into my routine. Thank you for making this. You definitely deserve the love and attention you get. Keep it up.
I love this so much that I saved it in my motivation Playlist to watch when I need that reminder. At the beginning of the pandemic my mom passed away, I broke my ankle and tore a ligament and I started relying too much on substances and food to feel better. I was able to stop everything but I have a hard time getting my ass up after being at work all day and taking care of a family member full-time. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and putting together a video to inspire others. You're amazing 💜
You really made me think about how I live my life and how I definitely need to do everything you mentioned. Thank you Leon and Happy New Year
Needed this man! Thank you!
Been watching you for years man and as you said at the start of the vid this is a great video to see before the new year. Thank you Leon cheers to you and your family 👍💕
Proud of you brother . You and Mrs. Lush are my kind of people, and an inspiration to me . Happy New Year lush fam .
I just love your content! I love your sense of humor, you literally make me laugh out loud. At the same time, you make things so simple. Keep up the great work!
Luv ya Leon!! Great message and encouragement!!!
I joined my highschool girls swim team last year. It changed my life in such a positive way. I'm confident strong, and I made tons of life-long friends!
I didn't think I would enjoy this kind of content, but you hit on some really good advice and tips. Especially the intentional boredom. Crazy how good that can be for you!
Most of this video felt as if you were speaking directly to me. It's almost 3am, and I've been watching YT for 5 hours whilst simultaneously playing a game.
I really appreciate this video and will make the changes to improve my daily life ❤
Blessing to the whole Lush family, and thanks you for the video we all didnt know we so much needed.🙏🏻🙏🏻
Love this, I've been going through my own transformation and I am glad to see someone I really on the same page as me that I love spending my free time watching for fun. Awesome
It’s insane how much I needed this video to realize how much potential I have, just need to act upon my wants and needs along with what’s best for myself. Thank you Leon.
Thank you for this Leon! And thank you so much for making it so relatable to yourself. Good stuff man.
Thank you so much Leon. Happy New Year to you, Mrs Lush, and Nigel!♥
Thank you. I needed this.🤗
Thanks, man, I really, *really* needed this. I'm not one for 'new years resolutions' but I'm definitely getting a routine together with your tips as guidelines and changing my year ahead. Thank you for getting me back on track.
Hi Leon! Excellent content. I agree with you 💯. Thank you for sharing the same with your viewers. I’m saving this video to watch / share with the procrastinators in my family praying they will become inspired one day, enjoy the benefits and follow suit. Keep up the great work. Happy holidays to you and your family. You’re all so blessed.
Saved this so I can re-watch and formulate for myself. Found your channel earlier this year and gotta say I love your energy, and absolutely love those 🧠🪱
Keep bringing it in 2024!
Your videos are awesome man. Hearing this from someone I really respect definitely helps solidify my resolve to be better
Same.
Thank you Leon, such a great video! I personally follow some of those tips, mainly the physical health ones, and i gotta say they do work! keep up the good videos, and a Prosperous, Healthier, more Productive 2024 to you all!
Glad you had a great year of progress and fun! Fantastic message to output and a good end to the year. Happy New Year, man!
Thank you so much for your advice, you don't know how helpful this video is!
LOVED IT. Happy new year.
Exactly what I needed to hear. This is kick ass man. Proud of ya!
God Damn, I knew there's a reason I love you. Delaying gratification is such a great idea! Especially given the constant need for dopamine hits our phones can give us at any time. Heck, even right now my brain immediately starts thinking how great it would be if people like this comment. It's so unhealthy, thank you so much Leon for all these amazing principles 🙏🙏
Brother, first of all man wishing you and your family a very special 2024! Found your channel earlier this year and real recognize real. Just in the last few months I can definitely see your transformation and I think it's dope that you're using your platform to spread positivity. I used to be a knucklehead coming up with no direction overweight, all the BS and excuses that a person can have. A little over 3 years ago I started my fitness journey and it's like God has been putting everything where it needs to be. The blessings that you attract into your life when your mindset changes are incredible. I went from being lost as a person and not knowing my purpose to all of a sudden hosting a podcast for a major company that I work for helping people get off of substance abuse. Going to be working off of that soon and starting my RUclips stuff on top of everything else that I'm doing. Anyway I'm not one to really post on stuff I just wanted to spread some love and positivity and thank you my dude 🤜🏼🤛🏻
Amazing video Leon! Love these tips and tricks 🤟🏼
Leon being Leon. Real as always. Love ya brother. Ive implemented exercise and good sleep into my lifeand i can say its been really helpful with my mentality about myself and oddly, my future. Thank you for this
Thanks for doing this video. Been trying to get hubby inspired to no avail but we always watch your videos together, lush life videos too, so maybe this will light a fire!
Leon, this video is so needed to be listened to everyone. As a counselor, being able to be ok being bored, delayed gratification, etc, are a golden gem when it comes to "seeing the dividends in the future". Keep being your awesome and transparent self. Thank you
Great video. Gave me a boost. Good to hear you've experienced these issues yourself and worked through them.
As someone who really values your opinion and has been watching you for a while and seen the positive changes you've made in your life, I could not have asked for more from this video. I really appreciate you sharing this. First thing I did when this video was over was turn of my RUclips notifications, which I think is something that has been holding me back lately from my personal goals. I hope 2024 is a better year for all, thank you Leon ✊️
Great job leon. One of ur best vids!!! Thank you.
Thanks Leon I actually loved this especially righf before the whole new years resolution thing ive been trying to get myself motivated & tbis was awesome! 😍
Fantastic work and total respect to a family looking after their health for the good of the unit. You're a model human, Mr. Lush 👍👍👍
Hey Leon amazing video, I'm literally the guy you talk about, used to be built like a brick shit house as a high school senior, 19in neck, 48in chest and a 30 in. Waist. Weighing in at 225lbs of solid muscle, benching over 350 squatting close to 560 and cleaning 275, I was the strongest kid in high school at 17/18 yrs old. I served 4 years USN, got fat after I got out, and now almost 20 yrs later I'm 255 smoke cigs and drink ipas like it's water, I want to get back to my young days but I feel I don't have enough drive, this video maybe jump started my heart again for power lifting and working out, thank you sir
Have a feeling I’ll be checking back in on this video throughout the new year. Thank you for the great entertainment this year. Thank you for these straight factual words to end the year with. Thanks Leon ^.^
This is the best advice I've heard anyone share, probably ever. I admit, I needed this.
Thanks Leon.
Thank you Leon!
I found your channel & the one with the Ms. this year and I gotta say you help me a lot. When I feel like it’s all falling apart I know I can watch you guys and at least crack a smile. Thanks man.
Wow!!!! Great freaking job. The discipline is admirable. The dedication is enviable. The results are a badge to your self improvement. I've watched you and your wife's progression. You both look and project beauty. But from inside out. You both remind me to find humor in the struggle, number two, fuck around and find out has always been in my family crest and your humor is fitting. For this weird ass world.
Congrats when you succeed. I feel I succeed. Without the work 😆. Don't even know you but I'm proud of you. I absolutely enjoy your channel. You guys are beautiful. Keep it pushing. You look great! Happy holidays !
Definitely on the same page bro, with just about everything you said.
The boredom you mentioned is really an overlooked issue.
I work over an hour away from the house, so I've gotten used to long periods without screens. Music on my way to work and audiobooks on the way home. But even on my break times, at work. While everyone is on their phones scrolling insta, tiktoks, RUclips. While I do it sometimes. I sit in silence and think. It can have an increase in anxiety if you let yourself replay conversations you've had with people in your head. But it's so good if you think about the real shit, you, your goals, and being a better friendlier person to others and your loved ones. Self reflection! Give yourself time to find yourself. To think about the actions and responses you've made that you don't like. Find and identify the faults in your behavior, in order to alter yourself to be a better person, to be the YOU you want to be. I'm a natural asshole, so I need this time. But it applies to everyone. "If you don't look, you won't find anything, and there is always something there that needs to be found."
You're good at giving advice my man. I needed this. Thanks
The message is amazing. I’ve been figuring out some of these anecdotes on my own this year, but it’s so nice to know that the direction I’m headed is overall positive. I’ve had a very high metabolism since I was a kid, I’ve suffered from anxiety and extreme fear in the past, and I’ve felt so suck in the capitalist trap called college. But, there are so many things in my control, and I’m determined to give trust back to myself.
I needed this video more than I realized ❤thank you so much for your words of wisdom. I love your sense of humor and outlook on life. I wish I had found your channel years ago. Grateful for the laughs and entertainment you’ve provided the last few months. This video is a gem! Helping to motivate me this morning! 🎉
Thanks Leon, needed this today!
I love this different type of content, Leon! It sounds like we have come to some of the same realizations this year 🎉 keep up the amazing work!
Thank you, Leon. You have no idea how much I needed to hear this right now.
Gosh. I've been needing this. I've been trying to figure out a doable plan to cut back on the amount of entertainment in my day to day. Thank you. I'm totally gonna try this heading into the new year.
Been around since more or less the early days and it has been great to see you evolve. However i grew with you and still enjoy your content. Great video and looking forward to binge watch your content once again in 2024!
I almost skipped this one until later. But I have so much trust in you that I continued anyway. I’m glad I did. My life has felt very lost the last 5 years. But I know I need to get it together as I approach 30
These are all great tips Leon! Happy new year to you and your family🎉
You did that! That’s what’s up! Continued success in the new year!
Needed to hear this. Thank you!
Thank you for making this!
Excellent job on this video! Very inspiring indeed. Great way to start a New Year!!!
Great video Leon, really what I needed to hear 🙌🏻
Very cool video, Leon! Your regular content videos help to make people laugh, this will help people be healthier. Both add value and longevity to life. Value in bringing people together in relatable ways, what’s more relatable than belly laughing? And healthier because there’ll be some who’ll take one, two or all of these tips and apply it to their own lives and be better for it. You’re a cool dude, hope you, Mrs. Lush & Jackson have a fantastic new year!! ♥️
Excellent stuff, Leon, definitely one of your best! Please keep this one up so I can rewatch it throughout the year so I can check my progress.
