00:00:00.000Greetings, Laddingtons. I am back, and I am back with some profound knowledge for you to partake in.
00:00:09.000So all I have to say is, make your woman pregnant. It is a glorious and joyous thing indeed.
00:00:16.000So, since I am back and I aim to restart my regular YouTube video production,
00:00:23.000I thought to just get the, perhaps the most commonly asked question, out of the way first,
00:00:28.000and that is what my experiences are with becoming a father.
00:00:34.000So, to conclude, an increase in motivation among other things.
00:00:40.000And obviously it is the absolutely cuddliest thing in the world with having a...
00:00:45.000Well, of course, for me she is the cutest thing ever, but I am sure all fathers would say the same for their little daughters.
00:00:53.000But, yeah, I think she is really cute and very cuddly, and it is very emotional when she falls asleep on my chest.
00:01:00.000And, yeah, it has been a very joyous experience thus far.
00:01:05.000So, I can start with the early pregnancy. The first symptom on myself that I noticed was an increase in focus, a sharpening in focus.
00:01:17.000I was focused before too, but this was something else, so that allowed me to work even harder on the book, the companies, and also on the YouTube game.
00:01:29.000So, an increase in focus and motivation was the first thing I noticed.
00:01:35.000And then the late stages of pregnancy and the labor itself, it went really, really fine.
00:01:41.000I am very proud of my wife. She was in supreme physical condition, so the labor itself was really smooth.
00:01:47.000It only took three hours since we got to the hospital.
00:01:51.000Also, shout out to the midwives and nurses in Stockholm, Sweden, for being so professional.
00:01:58.000Made the whole thing a very smooth experience.
00:02:03.000And, since then, the birth was around four weeks ago, and, yeah, she is a very good child, so I don't really have any complaints.
00:02:12.000I thought it would be much worse. Then, obviously, my wife is very good and caring towards our little princess too, so I don't have to do all too much, even though I try to help as much as possible.
00:02:23.000And, yeah, I will be honest, it is more work and it is less sleep, but it's not something I mind in the least.
00:02:31.000It's something you do for a higher purpose and, you know, you can mind doing extra work or sleeping less if it's for something that doesn't count.
00:02:41.000But I wouldn't say that there is anything higher and more glorious than caring for your own daughter or son, if you have that.
00:02:49.000So, it's all positive experiences thus far, at least.
00:02:54.000I might say differently in a few months if I get very little sleep. I don't know, but thus far, at least, it's been very good.
00:03:03.000And I thought it would be worse in terms of things to do and sleeping, etc.
00:03:10.000Other children might be more problematic. I don't know.
00:03:13.000But I would say that if you have a good woman, making her pregnant might be a good idea.
00:03:20.000Something else is that I have been able to train quite hard over these last four weeks.
00:03:27.000And also something that perhaps the great enemy would have you believe is that your life ends when you have a child.
00:03:36.000Might be true if you are used to being out and about, getting drunk during the weekends, but I was never about that life anyway.
00:03:44.000So, for me, just living the grind. Perfect match, really.
00:03:49.000And, you know, you can still hang out with your lads, you can still do things, you can still train hard, you can still...
00:03:55.000You can even game if you want that. It's no problem.
00:03:58.000It's just that you have to be a bit more alert to if your wife needs help with anything or your baby wants some attention.
00:04:05.000In my case, I just pick her up every once in a while if she's looking for attention.
00:04:10.000And then I watch on YouTube and have her sleeping on my chest.
00:04:15.000Absolutely cuddliest thing in the world. Highly recommended.
00:04:19.000So, yeah. Fatherhood, thus far, very positive experience.
00:04:23.000Then also a note on motivation for the struggle.
00:04:28.000It's sky high, obviously, especially since I have a daughter.
00:04:32.000We have multiculturalism on one side, we have generative Hollywood culture on the other side.
