How to Get Unstuck in Life

[@AddisonEverett]

This podcast has become more of a Sunday ritual for me than church. I never miss a weekly episode.

[@Ari_diwan]

Yeah me too 😄

[@matusbolemant566]

For a 21 years old, these podcasts feel like listening to older brothers giving life advice, it just "feels real", thanks

"We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons." -Jim Rohn Having systems, and methods allows us to be consistent. You can’t always have the heat, but by having a system, you can produce heat when you need it. I love the rebrand gentlemen; it’s more authentic.

[@andyroth619]

Everything goes according to the systems established in life. It took me 30+ years to discover and internalize this axiom.

[@JPJosefPictures]

Automating tasks also helped me a lot.

[@BakerWild]

Great quote right there

[@BraedenTheG]

“The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.” - Dale Carnegie

[@jonfernandez8027]

So yes, I do feel stuck - month two of my separation from nine year marriage. I push myself though. I do get to the gym, meditate. I don't like that my yoga has suffered, and I've lost weight. Things I need to address. Recently I've reconnected with a friend I haven't seen in 20 years! We hung out lots in '96 and she moved to Texas. She's returned to Indiana under awful circumstances. Her father died this past February, her daughter past in March, divorced a husband under substance abuse. I mean, you want to talk about profound perspective. I'm feeling much better being there for her. Sometimes purpose is truely about putting effort into something beyond yourself.

[@jayporter1981]

I have never related so heavily to any podcast in my life. Sunday mornings are like the highlight of my week now

[@IssaIbrahim1]

I find every time I dial in and go full focus on my goals, I lose perspective on my inner peace because these deep motivations that push me are very powerful but the problem is that we end up treating ourselves like slaves but we’re not slaves. It’s extremely difficult but by freeing ourselves from the emotions of obtaining these outcomes, that’s when we’re at peace the most. The problem is as men we tie our self worth to our accomplishments because that’s all we have to show for on paper. I’m trying to find my deep motivations through a healthier outlet other than fear, pressure and guilt but I still haven’t found the answer. Maybe its a higher power, or fatherhood or something more beautiful than doing something purely for ego.

[@stansvitsa1]

This podcast is like sitting down with my friends I wish I had and discussing authentic shit. Thank you bros ✊🏻

[@mmuneeb9503]

This podcast is one of the highlights of my week. Your discussions always resonate with me and are super insightful. Keep it up!

[@Silencer1337]

I like how every podcast starts with copious amounts of giggling.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

This Podcast is just a huge prologue before Thomas and Nikhil reach Peak Emotional Catharsis which has no beginning and no end.

[@Ryan-Horgan]

Advice for Young Men: This isn't linked to the video topic but its important nonetheless.. You’ve been brainwashed to associate selfishness with negativity. Selfishness is the purest desire in this world. EMPIRES have been built, HUMANITY has been carried forward due to selfish reasons. Be selfish, build something, then give back even more.

[@DjSoulsaver]

Yes Ryan! We meet again, yet again in another legends comment section haha. 100% accurate. Still get people giving me grief for being selfish in my building stages, I look at it like this, if you understand and or accept you'll be there when I "make it" otherwise, its time to say goodbye,. You can't give back while having nothing, its such little impact. My mother is the best example, shes given us everything she could, which Im thankful for however its given her nothing, shes struggling still as she was before. Eitherway, keep up the grind man. Need to sort out my main channel to start spreading the knowledge and we'll connect.

[@ankitsrivastava5708]

Honestly I am glad someone has the guts to say these things out loud, because we dudes are keeping these thoughts to ourselves and have no clue we're all going through it together.

[@DoctorMotorcycle]

Early 2021 is when I had the most "heat" on my channel; at one point I think I hit 250,000 views in a 48 hour period. Coming from a few thousand views a day to that was just insane. It only lasted a few days, but I'll never forget that feeling of "FUCK YES SON!". As you guys were saying though, shit really starts to get real, and your resolve really starts to get tested when the heat is off. Are you committed to your craft, always trying to improve, or are you just going through the motions? It's difficult to stay the course and maintain that discipline when things cool off and you start doubting yourself again. Cheers, to bringing back the heat!

[@GibbsonTV]

this episode really resonated with me because I've had big spikes in my yt journey, but also moments when the channel flatlines. But you know I'm always tryna get back into that heat.

[@jamielewis8284]

"It's either a matter of more patience or more courage" - That hits deep man. That is some profound stuff. Couldn't agree more!

[@TheGolgot83]

I am all for the damaged men podcast

[@DjSoulsaver]

MAN, This episode couldnt come at a better time. Seriously. Such relatable content its scary but also heartwarming seeing that there's people out there with the same feelings and emotions doing "much better in life", holding yourself to a higher standard and being hyper-aware of your potential is scarily accurate. I can be down for days because of that. This podcast is golden. Keep em coming.

[@ArtsIntrinsikh]

This podcast has been doing wonders Nikhil - Its a real different format from the highly formalised podcasts; its fun to listen to, and somehow ive found it to be inclusive, youre both on the same journey we are, keep up the great content my dude

[@cedmundfroi]

Always hyped to listen to these. You continue to be an inspiration, brother.

[@bransonlee3838]

Honestly, listening to this on Sunday evenings (Singapore Timing) is prepping me for the week ahead.

[@Therevolution7]

You guys are providing good mature value to young guys like myself ( 25), Thoroughly enjoy all the podcasts so far;

[@sleepysleepy9913]

It's comforting to know you guys got all this success and influence and you still have down days keep going!

[@jdrew2000]

As a college senior about to start their career in a few months, I can relate a lot to this episode. Remembering that life has seasons is important. Greatness also lives in the space between.

[@samdobie6748]

Lucky you, I graduated 7 months ago and I've been working in a warehouse 😒

[@SenshiNico]

As a fellow damaged men, this episode was on point. No, but serioustly, I also lately feel like despite doing the right things I'm not making any progress. The thing is I reached to the same conclusion as you two, I need to either change something or just be more patient. Loved the explanation and real life examples!

[@mcmaschio]

Had one of my most hectic weeks ending with a celebration of 1 year of uploading on youtube … but my highlight as always is this podcast … thanks guys .. never missed an episode 🔥💯

[@jasontm91]

I like the name change/rebrand. I think a lot of us men start out trying to be the toughest, trying to be ultra-masculine, trying to be a "killer". But along the journey, if we're honest, we realize much of that mentality stems from insecurity and fear and "damage"/trauma. I've just begun reading Carl Jung but one of his ideas was that a man needed to recognize his "anima", or the feminine aspects of his pysche in order to be truly whole. Thanks for the continuing authenticity in these podcasts!

[@abwerio88]

It's a joke

[@angellorenzoa]

One thing that helps me is to understand that I am playing with “house money”. No one thought that I would be a successful gym owner. No one thought that I would be over 100k. No one believed in me. Everyone wanted me to be a teacher , but i dropped out of college to become a gym owner. I do not come from a stable family , I don’t come from money, I was in pain my whole life. I beat the odds! I made peace with my past and now I understand that everything that I do now is “icing on the cake”. I talk to my younger self, to ignite my drive! “Remember angel, You had to go through your pain to become what you are today. Make peace with that pain and continue to become the best version of you”. Recently that’s what has helped me tremendously. I was definitely stuck in life a few months ago, but now I am at a better place.

[@Archerphil9000]

Started looking forward to this every Sunday honestly.

[@SnapThority]

this podcast is an oasis for me. a pitstop as i make it through the weeks, one after the other

[@jimboats]

You actually changed the intro text 😂 I laughed my ass off at this!

[@chrismcquade7627]

You guys keep it real, one of the most genuine podcasts on the platform. Helps both comfort and motivate me, especially when I'm feeling stuck or low.

[@TheFearlessGoat]

so glad i found this podcast from tiktok. i really relate to y’all. but yes, i feel like changing the name of it would be beneficial to you guys in the long run.

[@5Account5]

Hey, Nikhil. I just wanted to say, that I'm a huge fan. For all it's worth, some of your videos have really helped me out and I'm very glad that you keep making them

[@Ghxst969]

This Podcast is one of the things i look forward to and trust me I felt so unmotivated to work even while working i was playing your podcast so that i could atleast listen to you while getting my work done

[@hiii4805]

Thanks captain Sinbad for uploading such inspirational podcasts, we are grateful for your efforts

[@luke_9701]

You also have to take into consideration we are just coming out of the winter and feeling a bit exhausted from the short days and so on.. Keep it going boys, loving the show Cheers

[@JesseMartin]

Man this is really becoming the highlight of my week

[@DavidBoland]

I'm feeling stuck at the moment, I recently went from having "heat" on tiktok to being floored with a fever so now it's been a week since I've created anything to put online which means I'm not receiving the dopamine hits. So I've been left alone with myself and it begs to me question wtf is life if I'm not getting all the red notifications. feeling more and more tempted by the monk lifestyle. we'll see. Thanks for the poop cast! :)

[@nostro1940]

yeah, go ahead and turn yourself into a "monk" or a priest lol

[@tejasgkulkarni2116]

Yup,change it before it's too late!

[@ChocolateMilkCultLeader]

As a creator, I resonate with the idea of heat so much. Articles and videos are almost schizophrenic, it just drops and goes insane for no reason. You have to learn to detach yourself from the reception. I write a lot about it, but going for Mastery over a skill is one of the most important ideas

[@jasonlee8172]

Knowing you guys were in dark times as well makes me feel like I am not alone in my ruts. Thank you.

[@deadmqn_]

Love it. I look forward to these all week

[@musicby.gaurav]

lets gooo another fire ep The intro was hilarious cap XD

[@definitelynotpalpatine9634]

I said a few episodes back that the timing for these episodes has been impeccable, but bro this podcast is so in-sync with my life rn it's insane. Recently come off an episode of extreme heat where everybody and everything came my way and I felt like I was glowing. Self-doubt has definitely been creeping back in and things have slowed down, so to have you guys explore it in real-time is dope af. But regardless of current heat, greatness is always coming kings

[@hamzahbokhari]

My reflections after watching this: 💭💯 💥The times I feel happiest in my self, is when I'm grinding away at something I'm chasing. Funnily enough I'm most depressed when I've achieved the things I wanted. Maybe it's the universe's way of keeping us humble - to make sure we always are learners and hard workers. 💪

[@krassfilms]

Guys please keep this going. Chemistry is great, topics on point. I feel like a bro watching you guys. I'm a 33 yo male from Australia

[@josemalanga9257]

The timing of this is crazy. Thank you very much guys

[@ankitbhoi7521]

There is a lot to learn from you guys. Thomas spilled some hard hitting facts, loved his point of views about success and everything else.

[@AnimeshDas108]

Jai Shree Ram Nikhil Bhai, Happy Ram Navami 🙏🙏🙏

[@sergioortiz7288]

Good job on the new intro guys, nd I think the B-roll fits the DMP

[@HexEngineer]

I have been wrestling with this topic/this feeling quite heavily over the past couple of weeks, and sure enough you guys make an episode about it, so I will take that as a positive sign that this is a natural part of the process. Love your content, and can't wait for the next installment of the damaged men podcast!

[@Kf1rr]

You guys are gamechangers, you talking about all the things i was wondering recently like nofap etc, and you are so down to earth with it...amazing podacst! Hello from Czech Republic(-:

[@FatherPhi]

Forreal didn't give think I'd like this podcast but somehow find myself hyped up every week after watching y'all lol keep it up!!

[@ryko1246]

I can't express the joy I felt when I saw the title of the podcast in spotify

[@karankhatwani8987]

Bro I'm addicted to your killer podcast, keep doing it.

[@chinmaybhabadYT]

BTKP or you say damaged men podcast now had become my Sunday ritual

[@karvn1148]

A discussion on nutrition and fitness would be cool

[@gracianafayedomingo]

love this series, man!!!

[@aristeokrahn5082]

Loving these podcasts. These two have really impacted the way I think.

[@sadmansakib2266]

this podcast is turning out to be one of my favourite podcasts gradually

[@jason8761]

"If you don't keep your hands up, life will come at you" - love this quote, love the new name too lol

[@cryptorcd9352]

I haven't click at any other episode of the podcast of yours even tho I get them recommended often but I clicked at this one because thumbnail said the damaged man. That probably says more about me than about you guys but I think its a good way to change it to that. Seems more humble and authetic imo

[@ethancharles7918]

Really appreciated this one a lot more because of its relateability.

[@johnnyjacuzzi7498]

Good call on the name change. I didn’t hear one single piece of advice on killing and I was beginning to resent you guys.

[@shka4438]

Genuine and brotherly advice. Less laughing makes a person look and render stronger. It is more stoic. It injects seriousness.

[@alexeydenisov1863]

bullshit, total seriousness sucks. They've got good balance

[@andresAtMudra]

I like this vulnerability that comes from this ongoing "damaged men podcast" joke, makes everything else very relatable. Progress isn't a linear journey, I think this is why that stuck feeling can grab a hold of us even though we are putting in good work.

[@srashid1550]

I think this has been my favourite episode yet, love all of them so far but this one hit some deep philosophical notes, I know red pill and talking about getting ladies is super popular these days but sometimes we also need a break from thinking about that aspect… this podcast covered another aspect of life, love it, keep it up gentlemen🔥

[@Moshm4n]

I appreciate all the thought that goes into these conversations.

[@elmuratrysaliev2488]

I wonder if this podcast makes it to the recommended videos? If so, why doesn’t each video have 100k+ views? i literally gave every video a thumbs up at this point

[@dylanthompson9983]

Damaged men podcast is where it's at. Definitely relate to the whole "why would I watch a concert through my screen" which is why I always strive to be in the moment when I'm at one 😎 keep these coming guys!!

[@acearmageddon4404]

Damadged Men Podcast really is a much better title, it resonates with me at a personal level. Perhaps it's just something in the air today but this is the first of your podcasts I watched until the end.

[@chiefbam]

The Damaged Men podcast, it's got a great ring to it!

[@joshuastclairmusic]

Wow, this discussion really resonates with me! Been pouring a stupid amount of effort into my channel over the past month, but my growth is still about +1 subscriber a week. Still, my skills are ramping up, and I definitely discovered that I love making videos. No turning back.

[@KaushikIlango]

I could really relate to so many things you guys spoke about! love this new format bro, keep up with the patience and courage! Greatness is coming

[@thedreamtell]

Just in sync, searched for the podcast and it was online at the minute!

[@mrknarf4438]

I like the new name. Way less pretentious! :D And honestly I think most of us only seek betterment having suffered or been broken some way or another.

[@cristicoj]

This episode helped me so much! I'm so glad to hear the same perspectives and thoughts as mine. This gave me so much more hope!

[@joshuastclairmusic]

When I started making videos, I almost signed up Artlist. But I was like, wait, I’m a composer and a producer! There’s no way I can make original videos without my own original music! It’s a lot more work, but very rewarding. Will never go back.

[@abcdxyz1100]

Great podcast...really enjoyed this one Captain!

[@Jed_Herne]

Another awesome episode.

[@monojoy4270]

I like the new name actually

[@nikhilabi2230]

Every Sunday this is what I wait for the most.

[@marginalgains8477]

Good shout on the name change!!Been thinking the same, was wondering if you would...

[@mrwamble]

What you were saying about marrage is interesting, but communication is the key. If you or your partner see of feel something fading you let the other know how you're feeling and fix it.

[@chadcbianco]

Ohhhh can’t wait to dive into this one

[@jeevanraajan581]

Thank you captain. This is really helpful. You are the best :-)

“The natural order of things is chaos, and it is mans duty to erect order from that.” - 29:30 Probably the most hardest shiz I’ve heard in a long while

[@GLORYNEVADASMITH]

“New Gold Dream” by Simple Minds New gold dream She is the one in front of me, the siren and the ecstasy New gold dream Crashing beats and fantasy, setting sun in front of me New gold dream And the world goes hot And the cities take And the beat goes crashing All along the way She is your friend until the ocean breaks And when you dream, dream in the dream with me And when you dream, dream in the dream with me 21! 22! 23! 24! 21! 22! 23! 24! ….

[@KellyRobinson]

This episode is amazing timing in my life. Thank you 🙏

[@Swaidan25]

24:40 this is how I felt when losing 100lbs. Now that I’m bulking, I’m worried I’ll just fall off the wagon, but at least this time I know how to lose fat again. So getting back on the wagon, if I fall off, is going to be easier

[@JPJosefPictures]

7:59 for me it wasn't alcohol, it just got worse with it, for me it was watching other people doing what I want to do. For the direcotr example: I often watch the BTS documentaries from Star Wars Episode I to III where I can actually see what directors, producers, actors, musicians, etc. do and have the sense of the "Call to adventure", what the binary sunset in SW IV actually is. :)

[@benjiman818]

Love the podcast guys, keep it up 👊🏻

[@phosphorescentscotsman]

Nikhil, you're working hard, you're doing all the right things, at some point the world will be ready to print you picture, and it will be for ALL the right reasons. 👍

[@bellsell1742]

You guys should make a second channel called “The Damaged Men” and keep the name “Becoming the Killer” podcast. Love both names and the content.

[@ViiRaLx713]

“The Damaged Man Podcast” love it lmaooo

[@augustin19tube]

the “basically therapy” podcast!!!

[@callum7081]

I laughed in public when I saw the title change of the podcast on Spotify 😂

[@ChocolateMilkCultLeader]

I think the Damaged Men Podcast is a really good name. It just feels better
