Used it thanks man taking your advice from your older skin care vid ever since then been eating water melon more too

[@slackstarfish8133]

The reason a lot of people can’t love themselves is because they’re still actively doing shit that works against being the best version of themselves. You can’t love yourself when you know you aren’t being the best version of yourself. And that doesn’t mean being some super fit, rich charismatic entrepreneur. It just means not repeating those same actions that you know are not good for you. If you want to be at peace with yourself and love yourself, you have to work for it. And that applies to me as much as it does to anyone reading this. I still know I gotta be bettering myself, it’s just a process.

[@slackstarfish8133]

@@M4R77real shit. You probably just got deep-rooted stress you aren’t even fully aware of. Everyone knows about school related stress, but when your constantly in a state of stress, it builds up to the point that even when you have time to breathe, your not actually relaxed on the inside. I’m certain Im stressed as well. It just puts you into bad habits because it gives you moments to take your mind off things. You just gotta be aware of how you’re really feeling and take shit one step at a time.

So true‼️

[@radjaeammour-h8e]

I love the way your comment flows, good articulation with important ideas , your right , there is no end for growth , cuz there is no perfect place to be in and the ability to grow is something to be happy for , you can not , doubt yourself when you are trying your best.

[@AthleticCoast81]

Stop telling yourself how bad everything is and just do what needs to be done. It's not about motivation. It's about discipline.

facts

[@LilStyle1]

as a 13 year old girl struggling with depression, and self identity. you videos help me so much. iv been struggling for years with depression and bpd. it feels like iv lost who i am in the last few months, these videos give me comfort, and make me feel ok for a little. they give me hope that everything will be ok, and for that i can not thank you enough.

[@debbiechadwick861]

❤

[@nenalucero4444]

❤💫🙏💪😇

[@Ok_waffle]

Bpd sucks, you got this though, im pretty sure i have bipolar all my family does, which I know isn't the same thing, they're kinda similar, but bpd is basically bipolar on steroids, somethings that help me is working out, or bettering myself in general. Also it sucks being a teen, especially during these times.

[@debbiechadwick861]

@Ok_waffle I can sympathize with that sweetie. I am 73 and I well remember the turmoil of the 60"s. Today is much worse for sure. Be careful who you keep company with. Some people bring you down. Look for those willing to have intellectual conversations and that lift you up. Keep the drama queens n kings outta your life. 👍

[@Ok_waffle]

@@debbiechadwick861 Just because things seem to suck now, doesn't mean it hasn't before though, I'd say it's a bit easier now, then the 60's tbh, you fellas had it rough, I'm glad to have had this little discussion with you though, it shows me that not all older people hate us lol.

[@J0ck_301]

[@mcweird9779]

i got through a breakup and your channel has helped me and saved me, thank you.

[@AskShimon]

Glad I could help🤞🏾

[@sportlams]

It's all about our decisions and what we do. Discipline is about making decisions that are aligned with our intentions. Inspiration may get us started, but it's the habit that keeps us going. Habits stay with us even when we don’t have the inspiration. All of it I grabbed from the book Unveiling Your Hidden Potential

[@Bert679]

When he said he was a “jacket guy” I knew to trust this guy with my life

I looked for this comment 'cause I was about to say the same thing

[@geekfern5501]

I'm so glad I found your videos. I'm currently facing so many fears as a grad student with massive amounts of anxiety and social phobia. I've been exposing myself to uncomfortable situations slowly but surely, and am working on loving myself as I navigate these experiences. You reminded me that I need to sit with myself and FEEL these experiences as they're happening, rather than shutting down in order to get through them. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us.

[@justinarnold3906]

never in my life have a experienced a BLACK MAN like myself be so filled with knowledge at the age you’re at, i’m older then you saying that btw, please continue doing what you are doing! you’re inspiring me all the way from alabama!!!

[@zacharykaigray]

I’m in a moment in life where I’ve sacrificed everything to chase my dreams, and I’m in the process right now. It can feel really lonely, frustrating, and isolated. It’s common that I question if I’m on the right path, but your videos give me a lot of confidence to keep going. Appreciate you and your content, keep pushing bro 🙌🏼

[@Wiko_smashbros]

this channel truly saved my life

[@howmor504]

Same, God bless this guy. ❤️

[@AzariahMiller-z8t]

When you were talking about those negative thoughts that you’ve had as far as, “I should just quit KZbin no one is listening to me”, that just shows that those are truly just negative thoughts and they have no value. Because the way you have changed my perspective on life, relationships, self love, goals, and more is incredible and God has definitely revealed you to I and others for a good reason. You’re a blessing. Keep doing what you’re doing. 😁👍

[@sarah_nicotera3149]

I love this dude platonically fr he's so real

[@DarshaniPillay]

I don't know if you'll ever see this but in hopes that you do , from a young girl's experience of watching one of your videos, I could never be more grateful for you , you are helping me in so many ways and I feel like I'm speaking for many, if you ever feel those negative thoughts about quitting KZbin I want you to know that there's someone out there feeling understood, comforted and connected to you, I literally pause your video to write notes I get excited to watch you as for part of my routine. You change me

[@RAHUL_GD77]

this video literally came in the perfect moment in my life, love you

[@M1ner102]

Thank you Shimon. You have helped me through some of my worst moments.

[@AskShimon]

Glad I could help

[@Mklmaos]

Glad you never listen to those negative voices, cause you've been helping me so much like you don't even understandd💗

[@_stiffmeister33]

it wasn't until maybe junior year of hs (i'm almost 23 now) i started to *_realllyy_* get into 50s n 60s music. from nat king cole, clarence "frogman" henry, roy hamilton, to ella n louis. you name it. i jus be drivin bumpin that, instead of the hip hop/rap music i would normally bump, to keep myself grounded n to keep myself at peace w whatever i have goin on in my life.

[@Blessyn-oi]

Thanks Shimon! That voice of negativity is something I've had to deal with these days especially starting KZbin to share positivity and getting no views. This is a dose of motivation right here, I'll keep going. Thank you

[@bird4459]

why is this video so relatable keep going

[@baileyf1459]

Thank you, I love you.

[@AskShimon]

I love you💜

[@debbiechadwick861]

I agree about making your bed. It just gives your psyche a lift.

[@xprettyhurts]

I’m about to lose both of my parents before the age of 35 and I am about to divorce my husband… I believe I found your channel for a reason.. Thank you for speaking on these topics. ❤

[@icedtea09alt]

I never want you to quit, you save me. Thank you ❤

[@annazach6399]

Thank you very much for your support through this video, I love you 🌸

[@Stars2dirt]

Your channel, words and encouragement really helps me. Especially as someone who has gender dysphoria it’s hard to love every stage of my body when its harder to get to a body that’ll allow me to love it easier. I try to love every stage of my transition and non-transition, especially when people try to love me it gets hard, but doing something nice for me has really helped me sort of get to an okay point, like saying to my brain “hey maybe we do deserve some good”. I wanna feel life, I wanna feel the good, the bad, the neutral. I wanna feel, but not let it control me.

[@pluto2694]

As a fellow trans man, I understand that bro, but if you have the ability to transition I think you'll be okay, take care of yourself.

[@Villa_Troy]

❤ing yourself is a must😤

[@nierog1713]

Bless thank you, ive recently realized I've been on auto pilot for some years and you're that extra voice to help me really look within. Prosper and keep doing you ❤

[@SUPREME_EDITZ101]

Facts bro✌️ he encouraged me to start my channel 🫡

[@burgerking1085]

I watch one of these videos while taking night walks and once rhe video is finished i go back in the house but i think adding this and night walks to my routine helped me. Getting advice while getting fresh air and getting to look at the stars really helps me keep up with the videos 🙏🙏🙏😊

[@KohanIdk]

7:48 the top tier fit of the year🔥🔥 boy was dripped up

[@Anthony-67]

It's time for all of us to start taking better care of our health and our bodies. What Shimon Davis is doing by making these videos is truly amazing. We need more people spreading awareness about health and wellness. Keep up the great work, Shimon! Every year gets harder for teens who don’t have much money. Today, I saw someone crying, but at least someone was there by her side. Please don’t stop making these videos. I watch every single one, and every time I do, I feel so happy and inspired. Thank you so much for what you do!

[@nyto20061]

Yeah dude I love the way u r so comfortable and very calm wen talking about serious issues 😢 I’m very lonely guy and I sometimes really feel I’m gud wen I listen to u here 🤗

[@AskShimon]

everything will be okay brother. keep moving forward reaching out people. it can be discouraging but you have to keep going. Learn to enjoy your own company and connect with good people

[@DonnieDaytime]

This video currently has me in tears because it reminds me of how much i been failing myself for the last 30 years

[@Whos_Codey]

i feel like you post just what i need, when i need it. Thanks man

[@kevinwoodardjr.3871]

This dude literally just made my day

[@N8YBABY]

Your videos as a man are so helpful. Especially for me as a gay man, I love coming across straight men who I can really relate to and learn from, your content is always so comforting and only adds to my life! Thank u man your energy is a breath of fresh air, all original

[@AskShimon]

much appreciated bro, and i wish you the best

[@Sn00zYAM]

I really needed this, handling with afew issues with my girlfriend right now. We're both going through a hard time and i honestly want to take a break. So i most definantly will need this man. Appreciate it. And please keep up the content man, you really help me out

[@MattAngiono]

Loving yourself is only toxic if you seek narcissistic traits or style. If you think about the people who you admire and love yourself, and then model and love those same parts of yourself you can have immense amounts of love for yourself without being IN LOVE WITH yourself. This is key to really living a good life! Thanks for sharing on this topic! So many of us struggle with this!

[@raniachemaou3631]

Can’t express how much your videos are helping me rn… may God bless you bro 🫶🏻

[@michaelRichardson-oy7es]

I’m a dishwasher at the moment and I’m really needed this video thank you

[@Mr420prophet]

Bro I check for your new videos regularly. Your vids mean a lot to me, help keep my priorities straight when I'm consuming too much media garbage

[@joshrogne1574]

Don't ever stop making videos brother. I know it's just the ego telling you that but it's these kind of messages that change people and help them have an awakening. You have popped into my life at just the right time. I've been going through a spiritual awakening over the past few years and it's been quite the journey. I am self employed and have been subconsciously sabotaging myself and my success because I have not been loving myself properly. I am going to focus on that and be grateful that I GET the opportunity to fill the eggs in MY own basket. I love you man. I hope we get to cross paths in the real world some time. Holler if you ever make your way into Denver, CO. ❤

[@sno5951]

Your videos are the realest things out here. You keep laughing at those negative thoughts telling you to quit YT. 💜

[@Hughmannatee]

Hearing you go through all this and share this stuff brought me a really good and healthy place..I can finally move forward with my life for the better thank you.

[@nosignal8037]

Thank you man I come to these videos when tension and anxiety builds it really calms me down, you’re a wise man full of powerful words 💙

[@maliciousnnutritious3910]

Constructive criticism of yourself can lead to growth. Be aware on that same note that you will very likely always be your biggest critic. Don’t get so caught up looking at your imperfections that you end up overlooking the qualities that make you shine

[@SleepiestSoL]

Im learning about my self and im learning to love my self. Lately ive been walking, taking care of my weight and my body, i do my hair more. I try not to faulter or mess up. I never did skin care before so ill try it. Ive always been insecure around other people, looking at people who look at me and all i can ever feel from it is judgement. Its scary because ive always been judged even by family. Ive always been afraid to be me out of fear people will leave me. Its time to take care of me. Thank you Shimon. Seriously.

[@BrunoCimmino-z8p]

Yo bro sono un ragazzo di 14 anni che vive in Italia e in tutta la mia vita non ho mai sentito parlare qualcuno di qualcosa che penso ogni giorno e non ne parlo con nessuno perché non ho nessuno che mi possa capire. Guardare te è uno sfogo per la mia testa, il video dove parli dei tuoi nonni mi ha fatto uscire un paio di lacrime, perché ho perso mia nonna 2 anni fa e ringrazio Dio e avermi dato la possibilità di passarci più tempo possibile. Sei un ispirazione per le persone come me, non fermarti mai e ti ringrazio per tutte le "parlate" che ci facciamo dove tu mi parli tramite uno schermo e io ti rispondo mentalmente. Tanto amore bro❤

[@shunaaaaaaa]

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the videos you've created on healing and self-care. They have had such a positive impact on me. Your insights and guidance have helped me navigate through tough times and feel more at peace. I really appreciate the effort and love you put into sharing such valuable content.

[@asiastewart1909]

Been replacing my evening scrolling with watching your videos, hearing what you have to say feels like my minds opening back up.. keep doing you very much appreciate your videos🤍

[@mimimi5656]

The timing is immaculate. Thank you

[@gracemills8]

Your voice is relaxing and I’m glad you didn’t listen and still carry on with KZbin

[@stephenotieno9021]

From this part of the he the continent, your videos, Shimon has been of much blessings towards my personal development 🎉

[@theliamgannon]

I feel you on the lowest of low points, my whole identity was football, had 3 D1 colleges looking to offer me my senior year but I tore my Labrum and completely dislocated my shoulder the 3rd game. Lost so much hope and became very depressed. But it made me stronger, it helped me find my god given purpose and I’m beyond thankful for those horribly painful times.

[@vincent_demmy]

I love the fact that your videos comes right on time and I just wanna say thank you because I'm learning to heal the right way

[@Dapper_Star]

Thanks man. I found you only a few days ago and I immediately subscribed. I'm glad someone is humble enough in this world to help people.

[@Snowzyforyou505]

Honestly man this video gives me an reality check to love myself I love your video man it really made an deep meaning.

[@TheBadburning]

Every time when i hear you, it’s like washing my mind, my soul. You are a very kind of person and intelligent too. Thanks for being there for us. 🙏

[@kiroshivirtual]

I started a journal today while was watching this video, thanks fr ur words

[@treeofparadise9619]

Everything you say I resonate so much with!! Even though we are of different religions, I admire your faith so much. We truly just need to surrender and give up meaningless things we can't take into the next life like phones.

[@junaryankambule7034]

thank you, this is what i need right about now.

[@AskShimon]

🤞🏾

[@thehealtrix]

I definitely relate to having a old soul as well! I love this video, your hair & congratulations on your brand deal💜✨

[@Shesokholdd]

We’ll just a reminder we love your channel and I love hearing what you have to say . I come to KZbin in the mornings but to watch the videos u post

[@Thav0n3]

Shimon I’ve been listening to your vids and it really gets me past the day and helps me go to sleep thank you i really needed this kind of content

[@TamiaSamuels-no4pn]

[@Hachiko_Bell03]

you're real , glad to know you man🌻

[@barbeloooo]

Brodie imma let you know we all listening, keep It up.

[@erickfelix8270]

I'm from Brazil and your videos has been helping a lot, but I won't lie I ain't the guy the my image projected. In fact, I'm pretty far. Anxiety still kills me a little bit every day. Self love seems fair tails for me. But God, good people and myself will pass this bad time

[@michaelstyles8649]

Your music taste, your fashion sense, your style and your hair all are similar to mine, I know for sure we'd get along.

[@CaoShen17]

WOW, my man. You have 550K subscribers. That is insane. I watched your videos when you just had 50 thousand followers and you have become so popular huh. So happy for you, you certainly deserve it!

[@soda1741]

I’ve really been needing some advice like this… me and my ex recently broke up and I’ve been loosing myself and I know I need to start loving myself. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@asgardhunter6259]

Honestly I started watching your videos because I wanted to get the girl I like to like me more because thought I loved myself but in all honesty now I just want to be someone I am proud of and if I’m lucky too it’ll workout with her but before that is myself

[@gmansk53]

We are listening brother, you have a higher frequency of thinking and great messages. 🙏 personally Dove has always have treated me well 😂

[@quvtie]

i believe the way to love yourself is to keep saying positive affirmations of the person whp you wang to become and by time you will succeed. it also takes alot of small habits. example if you feel like you could lose a bit more weight then start going to the gym or eat less. musician? start practicing that instrument daily and dont expect shockibg results. fall inlove with the process not product.

[@alexandergreen943]

Hey I really appreciate these videos. This is one of the best ways I get to relax. Don’t ever think we aren’t listening this is an amazing thing you’re doing.

[@James-z5q1t]

Love You man! Thanks for sharing and reminding me to take care of myself.

[@rjmxnz]

hey bro, would love to see you cover how to stop having superficial conversations and how to transition from superficial conversations to those deep, stimulating conversations. love watching your videos, im new here!

[@OBgoon1923]

Man I need this more. Love this type of stuff. Need u to pst 10 times a day! 😅

[@Dead-Nats]

Im a new sub but I have never related to someone like this ever before, like i related to people before but not this much. What's crazy all your experiences Shimon seems similar to mine but different I'm one year older 22 but listening to you makes me feel like someone heard me I wear headphones to work listen to all types of music but I listen to it because the stuff in my life get to much, I feel a deep sense of loneliness most times and the voices in my mind keep creeping up trying to tell me things sometimes i can't sleep...but I guess what I'm trying to say is I do my best to be me and real an authentic to people in my life, when society is so filled with so much fake, so I thank you and hope the best for you.

[@bumblesnorf4475]

This came exactly when I needed it
