So many people expect changes to happen when they get married. But I think the reason for marrying is because you're happy with how everything is, and you shouldn't expect these large changes to happen. My wife and I have been married for 7 years and together for 15, and we have been so happy with the way things have been.

I've been married for almost 11 years. The best piece of advice that I have to pass along is to always remember that it's never you vs. your spouse. It's you and your spouse - a united front - vs. the problem. Too many married people begin to see their partner as an adversary, as someone against whom they have to stack up "wins." That will drain the love and respect from your marriage. Instead, with mutual respect, compassion, and kindness, remember that you and your spouse are THE TEAM. It's you two vs. any problem or challenge you encounter - together.

Married for 31 years strong! Two adult kids and living life. My advice is grow with each other and all your changes. Be a team. Whatever it is, have each others back. Maintain date night, have your own hobbies, and learn from each other. Keep things spicy in the bedroom, laugh a lot, let your kids see you as an individual and your interests. They will then grow to have there own hobbies and continue to grow.

I intentionally opened KZbin to watch any educational video on money or finance or something along that line, and the first video on my homepage was Ali Abdaal's " I Got Married and Moved to Hong Kong!". It wasn't what I was looking for, I don't need to know about anyone's relationship update. But there's something energetically right about clicking on it. And I'm so glad that I did. This is refreshing in its authenticity and honesty. It puts my anxiety on a leash. It speaks to me, and I hope more people get to watch this sharing. This feels human, and it feels like an encouraging hug. Thank you. Hoping for nothing less than a loving, courageous and kind marriage to you and Izzy. Cheers.

Today I came back to your channel cause I wanted to build a website and I remember u did content about that stuff, but I can't believe I'm finding out you're now married. Congratulations!!!!!!!! you were such a savior during my school years, I am soooo happy for you! I remember you struggling around covid but I can see you're doing alot better. As you should. Also, you are not getting boring! you are just getting secure and stable! Stop with these seeds of self-doubt language. You're amazing.

I've been married 7 years. The greatest lesson I've learned in marriage is that: you're on the same team in EVERYTHING. It's you and your spouse vs. everything else. When there's a problem, it's the two of you vs. the problem, and not each other. At the expense of sounding more woo, have you considered the Enneagram, Ali? Could be helpful language for self-development.

23 years married. My go-to one-liner for marriage is "it's not always easy, but it's always worth it". Do things in common but have independent interests and hobbies. Always put each other first. Never, ever keep score. You do what you do for those you love because you love them, not because they love you. Lastly, buy flowers.

Congratualtions to you both! Nothing beats learning through experience! I've been married for 10 years this year and I must say nothing comes close to it in terms of fulfilment except knowing God of course! Talk well, argue well, love well, commit well and no hurdle will be too great to overcome. Be willing and ready to forgive and be ready and willing to ask for forgiveness. This is absolute key to deep and long lasting marriage. One of the biggest lessons I've began to learn and still learning is to listen, listen, listen! Often times I rush to "solve" whatever my wife's problems and issues but actually the answer more times than not is "Come here" and embrace her tight.

When my first marriage ended because my spouse died, I realized the importance of knowing each other's stuff- what your partner would want to do if given the option of palliative care or removal of life support, the passwords to various things, and how certain systems in the housework. It seems awful to think about, but it's important to have plans in case the worse happens. Also, remember the family you two have created is the center of your universe - and while in-laws are wonderful, the pair of you need to be first and foremost.

I appreciate these in depth life update videos, there is so much to learn from them. I personally connect so much with the the balance you mention on wanting more vs being chill and content. I struggle with the balance every couple of months, I go from feeling content to wondering what the purpose of it all is. I honestly don't think there is a solve for it, we will likely always have to deal with finding out own balance for the stage of life we're in. I agree with you keeping things with Izzy and your family private however it would be nice to feature each other every once in awhile. So not a reoccurring business-like adventure but maybe a yearly update like this that you two film together, I think there could be a lot of value in it.

Completely resonate with what you spoke about in this video! I find myself flip-flopping and recalibrating my motivations and goals and my feelings can tend to drive me towards the "new shiny thing". This has often caused me to waste time and energy on things that have not served me or helped me get closer to the "greater goal". I think its pretty much the human condition (a universal experience) where we keep asking ourselves, "What do you REALLY want?". I really felt your struggle and determination and relief in this video. Appreciate you sharing your authenticity and lessons with us.

Beautiful to see you reconciling with this idea of more vs enough. What I have personally found is that when you align yourself with your purpose which is always some kind of action like “to learn” “to discover” “to nurture” it tells you what the correct direction to go is. It serves as your compass. Rather than feeling like you have to bounce back and forth it can feel like it’s all part of the same rhythm or flow.

I’ve been married for a few years, almost 4 years in December and the one tip I tell anyone is COMMUNICATE with your other half. A lot of the time we (myself included) think that our partners know what we feel / what’s going on and expect them to be a certain way. But I’ve learnt, people can’t read minds, no matter how close they are to you. My husband cannot read my mind (as much as I’d like for him to😂) so communicating is a key part to any marriage / relationship!

Ohhh my, this is soo true and I think in general for men. My husband told me, men are not good and guessing games, so, they want to tell us in their face for them to get it. Hehehe. Though my husband has learned to read my mind over the 8 years of marriage, but still he prefers for me to tell him than him guessing. Communication is really one of the keys to a successful marriage. ❤❤❤

So excited to hear you had gotten married! Congratulations! So stoked for you guys. Being married to your best friend is the best! I been married for 9 years and have three kids now. I would say cultivating the friendship of your marriage is one of the most important parts. And that every marraige is different, because every relationship is different, so don't feel pressure to be a certain way because people tell you to be like that. Lots of people will tell you if you are having fun and are in love that you are in the "honeymoon period" and that you'll get bored, that you won't be so in love 5 years from now. Don't believe them, I have found that as I have invested in my relationship with my wife and have just had fun. As we enjoy life together without getting caught up in all the noise our relationship has just deepened and deepened. More in love with her today than the day I married her! . Also... kids are the most challenging and fulfilling thing that will ever happen to you in your life... 😂

It seems like you're stressed, but hey Ali, it's okay to feel stressed.

So happy for you both! Best advice, be the biggest champion for your spouse and never “vent” or complain about them to anyone else. If you have something to work out, work it out together. She needs to feel safety and trust with you and you with her. I made the mistake of venting about something to my mom early on and she kept bringing it up when I had gotten over it and it lessened her view of him. Not good! 30 years later and we have a great marriage and are still each others best advocate and champion.

Life will only get more beautiful from here..Go with your heart and keep things simple. Your mindset is super. Embrace it that you are victorious and your victory is changing lives of many as you trail a path of leading this life. You are unique so just be Ali.

Also, congratulations, Ali. The entire self reflection... makes me believe you found and understood what it means to be content. It is in between enough and i want more (which sometimes it's just "I want different"). Contentment is peace. This is happiness. A heart will feel at peace how it feels at peace. It will be different for everybody, and it comes with no "I should" that comes from someone else. It comes from you.

Personally loved this video more than all of your videos. I am happy you are more in tuned with yourself. May you have a blessed marriage.

So happy two KZbinrs that I follow are actually married! 😊 Izzy is so well rounded as a person: beautiful, talented, nice (at least that's the impression I get from her videos) ... I always wondered who would be lucky enough to marry her. Now I know!

Hi Ali, congrats! You helped us learned a lot and since you asked @ 6:57, I'm thrilled to give back hopefully, you'll find a little tip useful, as someone who's been married for 21 years... I think, eternal happiness in marriage may come from a husband and wife who choose gratitude daily, laugh at each other's jokes, appreciating each other’s presence, love, and small acts of kindness. 💕I think for me, "The 5 Love Languages" by Dr. Gary Chapman is a must-read for me, as it offered powerful insights on how to express and receive love in ways that truly connect and strengthen relationships. ❤Wishing you and Izzy happiness! ❤

I'm a full time youtuber and my wife and I have a 6 month old baby boy. A few pieces of advice I was given from older mentors were: 1. We made a decision to never mention divorce - whatever the issue we committed to working through it. 2. Kids will change everything, be open to change. 3. Be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry God bless you both and thank you for this life update! I too have been loving the "boring" life.

You said people dont care about your life update videos, but these are the singular video of yours I always watch. Used to watch every video -- and they helped me a lot -- but now Ive also moved on to the second mountain and I don't watch KZbin much anymore, and seeing your life updates feels both like catching up with an old friend and like a checkpoint in my year. Ali updates mean its almost the new year, and its time to do some reflections and start thinking about next year. So, thank you for making these. Theyre my favourite video of yours :D

I actually prefer watching this style of video Ali - i.e. a bit of a rambly ‘thinking out loud’ / life update! I actually can feel the authenticity from it and therefore can connect with it & enjoy it more. The “humanness” of it all is is infinitely more curious & interesting and I think that there‘s always much intrinsic value in sharing & witnessing that (and thus gaining insight from) the raw human experience 👌 Also I’ve been watching you for years and it’s been really nice to see you getting more in touch & attuned with your feelings and emotional side over time!

Congrats on getting married! It was lovely running into you and your then fiancée when you were in Santa Monica. Practical Advice: Get a family email account to manage all your joint logins. Think logins for joint services, streaming platforms, bank accounts, etc. Absolute game changer for logistics. Second pro tip: Use a password manager to collect all joint details.

I am so grateful that you are talking about feelings and emotions! And that it's important to rely on them when making decisions in our lives. I burned out on my previous job (Project manager in IT) and had a depression after that. All this was because I ignored the feeling that this job was not okay for me for many years. Now I'm a future psychotherapist, and it feels sooo good and sooo right! I hope that this video will help somebody to switch their life to something that feels good for them❤

I enjoy some of your content-certain topics resonate with me more than others. Interesting topics. I do notice though that some of your videos take a meta-perspective, discussing things without necessarily coming from the experience of doing them. As a bit of feedback, I wonder if focusing on certain leadership skills could be beneficial to you. For example, shifting from phrases like “people working for me” to a more inclusive “team we are building here” might foster stronger connections. Similarly, instead of saying “they will probably find other jobs as they worked for me,” something like “we are all growing, and hopefully, my team will find amazing opportunities if I decide to go grow olive trees in Greece” could reflect a more collaborative mindset. Have fun in HK, Ali, and to both of you for your marriage.

@North_American_Elija
@North_American_Elija Ай бұрын
@ Yes, Muslim man’s are permitted to marry a non-Muslim woman under certain conditions, according to Islamic teachings: 1. She must be from the People of the Book (Ahl al-Kitab): Islamic law allows Muslim men to marry Christian or Jewish women. This is based on Quranic guidance (Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:5). However, she should practice her faith sincerely. 2. Marriage to a Polytheist or Atheist Woman: Marriage to women who are polytheists, idol worshippers, or atheists is generally not permitted in Islam unless they convert to Islam. 3. Preservation of Islamic Values: The marriage should not compromise your Islamic values, and the woman must respect your faith and the upbringing of children in Islam. 4. Conditions for a Healthy Marriage: The marriage should be based on mutual respect, love, and understanding, with both partners agreeing to uphold their religious rights and responsibilities.

There is this saying: IF YOU START A BUSINESS TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, NOT MONEY, YOU'LL DO BOTH. The dedication, persistence, and grit required to create a thriving business can’t be sustained by a desire for profit alone. While financial success is attractive, true motivation comes from a deep passion and low-key obsession. That’s the real key. In business, setbacks are guaranteed - mistakes will be made, long hours will be worked, and the rewards may feel scarce at times. The journey is full of ups, downs, and everything in between. Without a strong, purpose-driven reason for your efforts, the challenges can overwhelm even the best intentions. Hope it took you, reader & Ali, back to your "why" (the one that sets your soul on fire)🤘🏼

I appreciate this video so much for many reasons but especially the fact that it comes across as so genuine and vulnerable when talking thoughts out loud. You talking about should’s is so important for me now… as I am struggling to find what I want to do in my career and deciding what avenue to focus on. Being married is a wild journey. It’s different for everyone but main takeaway - similar to other relationships - is communicating is key. Also establishing expectations or boundaries as they arise. Even if it seems like an obvious thing that doesn’t need to be said, it’s always nice to be aware of so you can support each other to best of your ability. Also being able to support and work as a team together can be so fun, but ultimately knowing that you are in charge of your own happiness. Balancing I have enough with I want more is also such an interesting thing. I try to stay present and grateful for how things are going, but I’m still seeking more & want to grow. Though I’m definitely earlier in that stability stage than you seem to be, haha! The relearning things we already know goes crazy! I know you felt like you were being a bit uwu with things but coming back to how you feel about things energetically is so important. It’s essentially tapping back into your intuition and that’s so powerful. I’m happy for you in simplifying some things for yourself & team in the business (as a small feedback ngl it would be nice for the part-time KZbinr Academy and the productivity lab to be found on the same website/platform like you were saying)
