00:00:00.000 Post musik. That's actually how you say music. I always thought you would say music but apparently
00:00:12.240 it's musik. At least if you say post beforehand. Now there has been a lot of music postings
00:00:21.880 on my email as of late due to my Spotify list. And for everyone who wants to show their tracks,
00:00:32.920 show their songs, this is the rules. Can the glorious lion and his esteemed disciples do
00:00:43.560 deadlifts to the song or not? That is the question you have to ask yourself before sending me an
00:00:51.420 email asking if I can have your song on my Spotify list. My pre-workout list has one purpose and that
00:01:03.120 is that guys like me can listen to it before hitting the gym or during the gym. That's the purpose.
00:01:12.120 So you have to keep that in mind. So I can't put your song in the list if it's not something I can do
00:01:23.380 deadlifts to. So I'm not saying this to be arrogant. I'm not saying that your music isn't good enough.
00:01:30.680 I'm just saying that your music might not be suitable to the purpose of the playlist.
00:01:39.320 So those are the rules in regards to the music. So if you're gonna post musik think to yourself
00:01:47.800 is this something the golden one and his disciples can draw strength from in the temple of iron.
00:01:56.360 So yes, I just had to say that. Now on to the topic at hand, which is my hair. This is the
00:02:05.800 Norman hairstyle, as I mentioned in a recent video log. Okay, that's not really the topic of today.
00:02:15.640 The real topic of this fine video log. This is the sort of video log that will surely
00:02:23.640 make the channel hit a million subscribers. I thought about it. Why not? Why not aim for
00:02:31.800 such a glorious number? Anyway, enough rambling and on to the point. I got a message from a
00:02:42.280 patron supporter whom I have omitted the name and the exact location, but it is one of the glorious
00:02:50.440 nations of central Europe. And he asks me the following. I'm not going to read out the entire
00:02:58.120 message, but he feels a bit demotivated because he broke up with his woman, then started dating a new
00:03:08.840 woman, but she wasn't quite ready for it. And he lives in another city, so his mates live in other towns.
00:03:19.320 And the town itself he's living in is an industrial town, whereas he is grown up in, well, the countryside
00:03:26.680 basically. So he misses nature, what I have here in good supply in Sweden, always full of forests everywhere.
00:03:33.480 So he feels demotivated, lacking the motivation to do anything, basically.
00:03:42.360 And yeah, I understand this, but I have some advice. So don't you worry, my dear true friend and
00:03:49.160 supporter. I got your back and I will give you some advice. But first we have to check out this cool place.
00:03:56.040 I have no idea
00:04:25.720 what it has been, but I have recorded videos here before. I've done chins on this little bar here.
00:04:37.080 It was a winter landscape. It was a nice video, I suppose, so you might recognize it. But yeah,
00:04:45.240 it was full of snow then. So anyway, I thought this would be an appropriate place to
00:04:50.680 give some insights into what can aid you, my dear friend. So basically what you have to do
00:04:59.720 is to set goals for yourself. You need to not view yourself as being in the industrial city in central
00:05:09.400 Europe in November. You have to view yourself as being somewhere cool in the spring or in the summer,
00:05:15.240 and then you have a sick physique. So that is what you have to do. You can't train just three days
00:05:21.880 in the gym. You have to train six days. You have a solid goal and that is to get stronger and thus more
00:05:29.400 aesthetic. So that is one of the strengths of the gym, that you can set goals for yourself, that you can
00:05:37.640 continuously go forward. And here's the thing. What makes a man happy? Happiness, I don't know how to
00:05:45.880 define it. But what makes you feel content when you go to bed? Yes, it's if you have done good work,
00:05:54.520 it's if you have progressed in something. That is how you develop and feel good. So instead of just
00:06:04.120 training three days a week, as you said in your message, you have to train six days and you have
00:06:10.360 to continuously get stronger so that you look forward every day to going to the gym. Same thing,
00:06:16.040 you can read some books as well. It's all about setting goals for yourself and achieving those goals.
00:06:22.040 So have a time horizon. Say next May, I want to be in an incredible shape and I want to have read
00:06:32.120 all of these books or I want to have learned a certain skill.
00:06:38.040 Then you work non-stop towards that goal. That is the only way for you to feel more
00:06:46.040 satisfied with your situation as it is right now. And you can also ask yourself if you're going to meet
00:06:53.240 your mates later on when you get back to the same town for example. Do you want to be more aesthetic
00:07:03.080 and strong and wise or do you want to have regressed? So view that as motivation. That you will impress
00:07:10.920 your mates by being a stronger friend. That is the only reasonable course of action. Now I will go up this
00:07:20.680 little thing here. Maybe I can do some chins here as well. Always nice with a chins tree.
00:07:29.880 That's a nice place. I might come back to film some training video. So anyway, I hope that was somewhat
00:07:47.720 informative at least. I just wanted to make this video because you reached out to me. I said
00:07:51.800 you know what, I will address this in a video and now I have. So main point, set goals for yourself.
00:07:58.920 And for everyone who's in a similar situation, you feel a bit demotivated, you feel a bit black billed.
00:08:03.560 It's probably because of a lack of goals or in the higher sense a lack of meaning. So set
00:08:10.120 concrete goals for yourself. I will increase my bench with 10 kg in a month. Perfect goal to have. So
00:08:18.760 yes, get to it. Now in regards to living in an industrial city or town and you don't really have
00:08:27.720 the easy access to the forest or the countryside. I would definitely recommend that you do a weekly
00:08:40.120 trip. Take the train. Trains are always highly cozy. Unless you are in the subway of Stockholm.
00:08:49.000 Then you feel like you're in Gotham City. I like to go on the subway every once in a while
00:08:55.560 to be reminded, to remind myself of the gravity of the situation. A lot of generacy, a lot of decadence
00:09:04.280 in the Stockholm subway. But anyway, if you go with the train or a bus out somewhere in the countryside
00:09:14.040 on a weekly basis, have a nice forest walk of about two hours, three hours. Either we have a podcast in,
00:09:22.360 some music, or you might just listen to the birds.
00:09:26.360 You can hear the birds now. They answered my call. They also want me to hit a million subscribers,
00:09:40.120 so they increased the quality of my videos. So when I talk about birds singing and making sounds,
00:09:46.360 they come to the rescue. That's because my wood elf in my hoodie here trimmed my beard a bit as well. Maybe I
00:09:55.880 should shave it off completely. It grows out quite quickly anyway, so I might do it. Let me know in the
00:10:01.400 comments below if I should shave completely, just for a video. Then it will grow back in like two weeks or
00:10:08.360 something. So anyway, have those little rituals that you do once a week. So you know, yeah, I'm not completely
00:10:19.320 stuck in this industrial town every Sunday. It's holy for you to get out. Same thing for me. I view it as part of my
00:10:36.600 training, well, not really training, but more well-being routine to get out in the forest because
00:10:45.160 it's good. It feels nice. And I can bring the camera and make some wisdom, talk about some good ideas.
00:10:57.720 So that is how you can view that thing.
00:11:01.880 Then, in regards to
00:11:07.080 Las mujeres, the women, the fair maidens. Don't worry about it. At least not for now.
00:11:15.800 I'm not a Casanova, but some basic female advice is to be fun, be charismatic, be fun to be around.
00:11:27.160 And you will probably be better and more fun to be around in the spring. So if you're going to
00:11:33.720 procure yourself a good fair maiden that you can create a family with, it's better to do it
00:11:41.080 when the sun comes back to your fair lands. Then you will be a bit more happy, a bit more energetic,
00:11:49.880 feel better. So you should not worry about it if you have a bad period, especially during the autumn,
00:11:57.480 and you don't feel well. Because then you will not utilize your full potential.
00:12:04.120 So don't worry about it now, about fair maidens. Worry about training. Worry about posting physique
00:12:11.400 in the spring. Worry about your mental game until later on. Then, as spring comes,
00:12:23.880 then you can go on the hunt, so to speak, for a potential wife. And then you will be happier,
00:12:31.800 healthier, more outgoing, more positive, and generally more fun to be around.
00:12:38.040 So that is something you can keep in mind as well. But as for now, just remove that equation from your mind.
00:12:48.360 This is great advice, actually. I amaze myself in my wisdom.
00:13:04.680 I have transformed into a wood elf. No, I suppose I was always a high elf.
00:13:16.680 But anyway, I thought to introduce this advice with referring to myself as a wood elf, because
00:13:23.480 there is something you can do. I've talked about this before. Escapism.
00:13:27.960 It can be used as a great way to just recharge your batteries. Now, the problem is if you are
00:13:37.560 constantly escaping into alternate realities. But if you do it every once in a while, I've done this
00:13:44.440 over the last few years on a few occasions. I just take one day, completely immerse myself in, it can be
00:13:51.480 some sort of game. Just game like crazy. Power gaming mode on. Just take a coffee and you game.
00:13:58.920 Get into it. Get into the game. Get into the story. Just spend an entire Sunday playing, if you don't have
00:14:06.360 any other obligations. But if you do that, it will probably give you a different perspective when you're
00:14:15.720 done with the day, so to speak. So, of course, this is not something I endorse doing on a regular basis.
00:14:21.480 But every once in a while, it can be good to just have a break from everything. It almost becomes like
00:14:26.280 meditation. Can you do the same thing with a game? Just take a complete break from everything.
00:14:33.000 To not stress, to not worry overly much about anything at all. Just for a day. Not even a day.
00:14:38.680 To be half a day. And you play through a certain game. The Witcher, for example. Skyrim. Age of Empires 2.
00:14:49.240 The historical campaigns. You spend some time completely. Shut yourself off from everything.
00:14:55.800 And then focus on it. Then you have had a break from perhaps your malicious thoughts, if that is
00:15:05.240 something that ails you. Because that can be a reason also. That you have a negative mental loop.
00:15:11.800 That you think about bad stuff. Then you feel bad. And when you feel bad, you think about even more
00:15:16.840 bad stuff. So, it can be good to just get a clean break. Even better, of course, if you're in the
00:15:23.400 Temple of Iron. Because then you get the endorphin kick, etc. That makes you feel better. So, yeah.
00:15:29.960 You can do all sorts of things. But in conclusion, my last piece of advice
00:15:41.080 is put yourself in a mental state where you are looking forward to something. So, for example,
00:15:49.000 now I'm happy as can be because of all the good things in life. But if I right now was not in a good
00:15:55.240 place. And I wanted to motivate myself to be productive, etc. To train hard. I would just envision
00:16:05.560 how I want to be in the spring. You can be in some sort of cool place out in nature in the spring,
00:16:14.600 in the summer, in May. And then you start working on it now. So, you have something to look forward to
00:16:19.080 all the time. That is my very best advice. But I already said that. So, yes. I will leave you all
00:16:27.800 with those words. And, yeah. Thanks for watching. XOXO BOOM!
