I don't usually comment. I'm a woman and this message rings true for us too. I'm sitting here stunned because I'm super guilty/convicted. I'm always looking up ways to plan, productivity hacks, etc. But actually doing it? I can always find an excuse. And it has made me very unhappy with myself. My words for 2024 will be Discipline and Consistency. But I'm working on it now. I have to be wiling to make the sacrifice, even when I don't feel like it, and whether or not I have the support of others. Thank you for the kick in the butt today. Let's get to work!

I like this

In the Discourses of Epictetus, a Roman slave/stoci philosopher, he talks about advising an athlete who was supposed to be working out. Epictetus says "show me your shoulders" and the athlete replies with "here, take a look at the weights I have." The philosopher responds "I am more interested to see the results of the weights." The Athlete replies, "but here, look at this book on working out I have read." The philosopher basically responds with "either show be the effects of the work or be gone. I have no interest in the tools of the work, but the work itself." These are lessons that have been reiterated for thousands of years, and yet people still forget. Keep up the good work.

I hope you picked the right parents, because genetics determine most of this life you're "totally responsible" for.

Listened to this while cleaning my room. I know it’s a small thing, but I hope finally cleaning my room snowballs into bigger change. I need the change in my life now. I hope everyone who sees this gets motivated to just start doing it, and I look forward to what the future holds for me and you all. Stay blessed.

You are so right, we tend to procrastinate, thinking about doing, talking about doing , instead of actually doing. I know I personally read a lot, talk a lot, think a lot , and actually do very little. The old saying “ action speaks louder than words “ is so true.

You're 100% about doing, that's the thing that separates the successful from the dreamers. Until two and a half years ago I was a dreamer. When I shifted into doing mode, I am now less than two years from being financially independent and that's if I keep at my same pace. Do, stop talking and take action. It pays.

You missed the point. This is about moving past that phase once you are in a planning and design tailspin and actually turning the key. It's more difficult to do that for some people than to create the idea itself. It was for me. It's so worth sharing and encouraging others though once you get over that hill because there is room for everyone to be successful. Best wishes to you if you are working on one of those projects.

Thanks for encouraging us to “just do it!” Planning is good, but much of the time, people need to just start “doing”sooner!

Today is my birthday. I created a logo for my business and kept thinking of begin moving. Like you said I was just “thinking” this is the best birthday gift. I need to act like a man and MOVE. Thank you. Sometimes we need the “harsh” and “judgmental” message!

You might be one of the few creators i’ve seen who actually says What you did to start, and i can’t even tell you how important it is to hear that stuff. Buy the sites, buy some equipment, and write. It all seems daunting and hard until you realize it isn’t, it’s a lot of small steps taken over and over until success comes. Thank you for the content

Right On! I know this but I need to hear it over and over again sometimes. I fell in a rut and need to get back into just action. Keep it coming. Great speech.

Nearly 7 years listening to your podcast, This!! Bring this Fire! One of the better ones.

Man, thank you. That's exactly what I needed to hear at this time in my life. I've been out of work for the past three months and have been racking my brain about what to do. Your message is one of encouragement, even though you think you're in a bad mood. Thank you.

'Do what you can with what you've got where you are' great quote.

Spot on brother!! Last year I decided to get my insurance life and health licenses and it took me a few months and then I had to do all the Medicare certifications that took a few months but now I’m doing the work and still working as a x-ray tech. Doing the work is the only way to live life!!!

Ryan, I couldn't agree more with your message today. It's so easy to get caught up in the planning, thinking, and dreaming without taking the crucial step of actually doing the work. Your words hit home for me, and I appreciate the reminder to stop the mental gymnastics and start putting in the effort. This weekend, I'm committing to taking action on the business idea that's been lingering in my mind for too long. Thanks for the motivation!

Good shit brother. Never apologize for being right.

This video just saved my year. I was totally paralised with all the "knowledge and excuses" that i have inside of my mind, and this man just showed me that mu problem is that I just think about the thing instead of do it. Thanks mu friend, great job helping people to put the thing in movement and just get to work 🙏

This is exactly why I enjoy your podcast with my growing son and with my daughter! Life is about choices and consistency, embracing the challenge of doing what you're fearful of. Hardworking men's podcast and great leaders. My son still listens to man in the making reruns in his room while he's falling asleep.

Wow!! I cant believe you haven't come up in my fyp before now. Thank you dear sir for doing the work your doing. We desperately need more men like yourself in this country, and in this world now more than ever. So again thank you sir❤

I just found your channel right now, and i just so happen to be making changes in my life like starting a business. This is crazy

Crazy timing that I come across this now. Just made the decision to finally apply for my dream job and put in my notice at my current job. Starting the new one January 1 and I feel alive again. Paralysis by analysis was my issue for years. Great video, Ryan.

Thanks Ryan, I needed this message today.

This is one of the best , most timely, and extremely relevant podcasts I have seen from you. Deeply appreciated. I needed to hear this

I started doing this a little over 2 years ago. I was and still might be, but to a lesser extent a podcast junkie. Something clicked though and I decided that I would be the one in my family to elevate my bloodline and open my own business. I come from a long line of hard workers non of which owned a business though and therefore only made it so far. “Why not me” “Why not you?” All of the information is at our fingertips. Stop thinking and start doing! Learn it as it comes up. You don’t have to learn everything before you start.

For some reason I've been subscribed for who knows how long but this is the first video I've watched. So. Good. Such a good message. It hurt at times but it's what has to be said and heard. I loved your attitude, your tone, your wisdom, everything. Thank you.

One of the realest videos on youtube.

I needed this message. You’re a good man. Putting yourself out there and propelling the message men NEED to hear. Not some fake motivation. Appreciate your efforts.

Out of all the motivational videos I've watched in the last few months, THIS IS THE ONE that's resonated with me the most! This is what I needed to hear! Thanks, bro!

instantly subscribed. this is the exact material i needed to commit to the ventures i’ve been wanting to begin but have been dragging my feet while i’m in community college and doing part time construction. thank you

I totally agree with this sentiment. I would always say I wanted to start a KZread channel but never took action until one day I shut my mouth purchased a tripod a ring light and started it. Now Im almost at 2k subs and I was approved for monetization so I'm not stopping until I'm 6 ft under. Life is too short so if you want to do something just do it, simple as that.

I'm right here right now. Doing what I can with what I have and where I am. This is exactly where I'm at. I'm not sitting around waiting for it to happen. Like I have for so long. Thanks brother 👍

Thanks man. This video is a game changer. No selfhelp sh*tty books (I've reed tons of em) tell you what you actually have to do (or don't), it just create more anxiety and the willing to buy more books..Straightforward message that's all. I'll share with my beloved ones.

This is so damn simple, and yet I still on the regular just stay lost THINKING and TALKING about doung stuff. This is dumb. I'm listening to this today, and looking at myself and saying "Just do the damn thing!". Thanks for the honest motivation. Keeping stepping on my toes and kicking my ass, man. We as men appreciate this, and we need to hear it.

I needed to hear this. Thank you

Thats true my brother. The more valuable men out here the better this world will spin as well as teaching the young ones our ways. Lets get it ! Top G

I needed to hear this. I’ve been remodeling a house for me and my daughter for the last 3 years. Complete remodel down to the studs. New wire plumbing and everything. I notice I get carried away in my thoughts of what the house could and will be that it distracts me from the task at hand. I noticed when I’m not daydreaming I get a lot more work done.

Very good video message brother!! It’s so easy to whine and complain as I see so many people doing!! The real work is in taking action taking each step especially when you’re scared!! Blessings to this podcast brother!! Let’s get off our rears and do the work 🙏

I began the work today. I have a lot of work to do but I’m going to make it happen. Thank you.

I'm a step past the step you are talkig about. Its uncertain, hard but i've newer felt more alive. Mu mind is my allay again, my boddy is my servant , strong and loyal and my attitude towards life has improved drastically. Go after it!

This was a fantastic video. This made me think about my KZread channel. I’m in year 3 and the one thing that has helped me grow is just showing up and doing the thing (making a video) Thank you!

Needed to hear this today. Thanks for the reminder!

Just found your channel. It’s 8am on a Friday morning Dec 1. Walking on my brand new treadmill. Committed to walking 4 hours per day (will adjust as needed) dang “no carb” only worked when I was young and walking everywhere. Today I make money but sit on my butt. Lol so “zero carb” is useless without that caloric deficit/activity Happy to have found your channel. Your call to action and sense of total ownership resonates with me. That’s some 10X stuff right there. I’m type A: when I want something, I get it yesterday. I loved my life starting new projects but many of the trees proved to be unfruitful. But I learned and I had fun. People said this was an addictive personality but now I understand this is a blessing. The guy who shoots first and aims later is going to hit more targets than the dude who is still shopping around for the perfect rifle. Catch you in the next video! Tommy

Move to a mountain a few miles from the nearest town and walk/ruck it for a year. By your third time up the mountain your conditioning starts to kick in and you'll be surprised how easy an 8 mile round trip with about thirty to forty pounds of groceries like it's nothing. It's just your doing and as long as you are in tune with who you are the doing becomes effortless.

Good stuff, Ryan! Thanks for putting it out there.

One of my favorite videos to date. Thanks Ryan. I needs this today.

This is what I needed to hear. Thank you.

The strategy I use for getting things done is making a list with headings chores, purchases, projects and list out with the most important things at the top. Then everyday do 1-2 things chores are easiest to get done and things Im wanting to purchase just take time to save up always put needs and family requirements first. Projects are usually a combination of both, paint the roof, rebuild retaining wall etc

Really love that you are passionate enough about all this enough to say…” if all you do is listen to these podcasts without action…. Then unsubscribe.” That is true commitment to the message! Big props brother! 💪💯

Thanks for this message. I went through a large chunk of my young adulthood in much the manner you first described. It caused me to justify all kinds of terrible things I perpetrated on people who loved and trusted me. The world is so soft that many young men and women have never had hard work and accountability modeled for them, nor exposed directly to it. In fact, victimhood is glorified by today's popular culture. By the grace of god, children forced me to come to terms with my adulthood and show up for the people who love me. As I move through life I now look for new ways to be better for the people who rely on me. I hope your message helps others do the same.

I love this bro. Don’t stop for us!!

I watch this video every Friday now. Im doing the thing!

Thanks man. Going to go train and keep my head straight. I appreciate the reminder.

Ryan my life is been turned for good , first thanks to God and thank you , when I star listen to your podcast 1 years to go , myself change. Thank you again

I needed to see this Ryan . The work needs doing.

This is simplistic advice, but very true. And things I need to hear. Struggling to regain confidence post divorce has caused me to not approach women or I have not taken the other chances I have been considering for fear of failure

Good post, thanks! I am doing something that is different from what you are talking about. I have a dream of building a rural homestead. A place where I can live, grow a large garden and harvest from the forest. We bought ten acres in a rural area and we bought a shell of a building and we're building up the inside to meet our needs. I believe the order of progression for a successful life is: dream, plan, do (aka: work), and often, adjust: plan and do.

You’re absolutely right In everything you said Ryan. I can tell you from first hand experience that reading about it, watching videos about it, and researching every aspect of it will not produce the thing. You have to get off your ass and go get it. After a decade in the military, I had a 15 1/2 year break in service and finally decided to rejoin. The army told me I would have to repeat basic training due to the length of break in service. I was 45 years old and going back through basic training for a second time. None of the rejoining process was easy I just had to do the things. I’m winding down a firefighting career and spinning back up my military career at the same time. So yes, you have to do, action is the only thing that matters. Thanks for the words today brother.

Man I needed this.

Very good video, brother! Right on time!

This is what I needed. Thanks

Thank you for this message!

After nearly 9 years, with 2 years worth of training, 3 different places of work, and 10000 plus hours of experience, at 3am the other night, I finally did the thing. I've got my apprenticeship registration in, and a great work sponser, finally. Blue book is coming soon.

The message I needed to hear this morning (7am where I am, watching YT). Now searching another dozen YT videos that'll tell me how to get off the couch and do the dishes.

My biggest issue, as a man with autism, is that I was raised to give people the benefit of the doubt and live by the Golden Rule. When one person shows themselves to be the jerk they are, I log that and move forward accordingly. Problem is, it has taken me a very long time to develop the mindset that I should stereotype people based on my observations of their behaviors and how they may compare to others I've known. If someone I've never engaged with reminds me of someone who screwed me due to their similar actions, I should probably not give that person the benefit of the doubt but make them earn my trust.

Thanks so much for this...I needed this

Thank you for such a wonderful message. A year ago I promised my girlfriend to get married by the end of the year & my family refused my engagement. I was depressed & disappointed for letting her down, yet she stood up by my side & said that we try again as it ain’t over yet. I decid to go all in & be the man. Thank you again

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my KZread channel 8 months ago about self development. Now I have 1,158 subs and > 900 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.
