I’ve always perceived time as an energy source that each living being possesses. The way you live your life, the decisions you make, can either increase it or lessen it. The nice thing is you can use and direct it in every way you choose. We truly create our own futures.

[@mrtrth]

Man, I really enjoy watching these daily real talks. I don't have any friend that talks about relatable stuff and I don't like those fake imaginary ASMR roleplay talks. If I get the chance to hear someone talk in real life, it's only depressing doomsday broken record tapes that make me wanna get out of this body asap so I'm grateful for people like you here. There's a thought that came across my mind that I need to deeply meditate on: "The past is a present that is gone, the future is a present to come." If I ever come up with something interesting, I'll share it maybe. We got ourselves. We can do this. 💪

The only thing that got me out of a season of this (a very long one) was finding things to get me exciting about living life. I became obsessed with learning languages and traveling and having wild experiences culturally that it shaped the person I am today. I then found I love programming. This gets me out of my bed and excited for the future. Dream as BIG as possible please!! Even if it's never going to happen I would rather have the guy on my team who dreamt as big as possible and failed than the guy who never even tried. Keep going Matthew

[@tbecon]

Matthew, seek out the positive about yourself and stop comparing yourself to others as you are only seeing what is on the surface and don’t really know what lies beneath and that skews your perception of them and consequently yourself. Set simple goals and hold yourself accountable to that, like be kind or smile at someone. When a stranger smiles and says good afternoon to me it automatically makes me smile and lightens my mood. You are having a positive impact on our day, please try to make a positive impact on yourself as well. We like you and think that you’re fantastic and for good reason, think about why that’s true and what you’re missing when judging yourself so harshly.

I had practise drive lesson today. Im 34 years old. I could take the drivers licens when I was 18, but I gave up, but in a age of 34 I desided to try again, but after my lesson today I almost desided to give up, but now after seeing this I will keep trying. I also almost gave up finding love again. But now I will try again 😊 ❤

Funny you are talking about this subject. Being in my 50s, I have started reviewing that I have fewer days ahead of me than what I've always lived. I tell myself I absolutely will not live until I can't take care of myself. That scares me. I get scared when I think that I could live long enough where I may end up in a nursing home in a vegetative state. That would be my hell on earth. Dont let it happen to you.

Matthew ... Good evening, I've watched this Vlog twice today, my day didn't start off as a normal day, I woke this morning at 5:AM couldn't sleep, so I binge watched a series on Netflix called Monsters. In listening to your Vlog, I was looking for inspiration to motivate my aspiration for the day. What I found was something you mentioned, and it just popped into my head, The Serenity Prayer:" God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things that I can, and the wisdom to know the difference." It's a prayer my Mother use to recite when I was young. As my day wind down and I have settled down for the evening, I am feeling much more like myself. Your words matter, you Matthew matter, and I just want you to know, When you walk through a storm, Hold your head up high, And don't be afraid of the dark, At the end of the storm, There's a golden sky, And the sweet silver song of the lark. These lyrics has great meaning, and they remind me of you, at the end of any storm, there's hope, and sunshine, remember my friend, nothing beats the dark, but the light. Lift your spirits, raise your head, and keep smiling. 😊

[@Ace-ub1ol]

Wise words 😢

[@fcllyvr3000]

Mathew, you are not alone when you say that you fear the future. It's a natural human response to what is unknown. And as humans we are given the ability to think, and discern the "WHAT IF" scenarios that MAY occur and prepare for it. We are given the ability to to envision, if you will, various scenarios and situations that life will throw upon us, and prepare. Sometimes we fail, but we move on and try again. Afterall life is a journey and sometimes we are not able to see what is just around the corner, and with caution, move forward. And this is what makes us human with the ability to "THINK" and decide a new course of action. This scenario will always be part of our existence and it is up to us to choose whether to move forward or give up. The choice is yours. And if one gives up one dies, not necessary physically but in spirit, and when this happen we give up on life and just exist without a purpose. And that is not life but just existing. Might as well be dead because it is almost the same thing . ....American-Filipino here on the West Coast of the USA.

[@MM-br4km]

Hi Matthew. Some good points and thoughts in today's video. Whenever someone looks back it is evident of being present in a future of the moment(s) looked back upon where we either looked ahead, or were frightened of that unknown we are now in. And here we are, at present, in a future of a past. You've provoked me into searching for moments in my past where I looked ahead. Now if that isn't mind-numbing I don't know what is. Just the thought of that gives me a headache. 😱 Anyhoo, that's the cycle of life as we live it with intrigue and love, and at times dislike it, along the way. Some days the sea is calm. And other days we batten down the hatches from potential waves that surprise us, as we sail into and out of various weather throughout life, so-to-speak? Talk to you next time. Have a GREAT day! 💙

I tell people without a spouse or children that you have nothing but freedom. I absolutely love my family. But all of my fears about the future revolve around how it will affect them. Before them, I was worried about disappointing my parents. But now I realize that good parents just want you to be happy. So if you have no one to be responsible for, you should do all kinds of things that scare you and responsibly test your tolerance for risks.

In your book of life, your comfortable with the past because it's already written, you can go back and reread it, but your future is not yet written. You are writing it now🤗 What could go right? Yesterday is history, tomorrow a mystery, but today is a gift, that's why they call it the present 💙💛 People will forget what you say, people will forget what you do, but people will never forget how yiu make them feel💙🤗💛 You ever seen Home Alone 2, at the end Kevin goes and gives the " pigeon lady" a turtle dove. And they talk but the part that sticks out the most to me is , " . . . I won't forget to remember you . . . " Matthew my friend you've touched my heart and will not be forgotten ever, in this life or the next. You see there are people in this world that genuinely care about other people maybe because they know how it feels to not feel cared about. I'm not going to stop caring about you, I've been told throughout life I care too much . . . My question is how can you care too much? You can't care too much, there is a shortage of love and care in this world " the abscence of God" but that's another discussion. 😊 sometimes when I find myself lost, I stop . . And start focusing on what I do have right now, that's not always easy, but practice and persistence helps, for instance I have this phone to communicate with you, and others. I can walk, not to long ago I couldn't, I can see because I opened my two presents this morning too . . .

One scary thing about the Future I feel millennials and GenZ are not paying attention to is: saving. Money can expand freedom, improve the menu of life options we choose from, pay for travel, a peaceful place to live in, gym membership, hobbies, quality food and keep us untethered from unpleasant people and unpleasant jobs. It's safe to say securing good savings makes the future less scary. The problem is that money is designed to lose purchasing power. A hard earned $100 put in the bank today will only buy a coffee in 2050. Investing in stocks requires a learning effort and risk I cannot afford right now. So, the single future enhancing thing I wish I knew earlier is: Hoarding investment grade bullion gold coins. My net worth would be more than double today had I started 5 yrs ago in 2019 haha. I don't mean to peddle anything, anybody who reads this can fact check and meditate on what I said.

Matthew, what you do now is an investment in your future! If you have conviction in what you say. and It seems you do, maybe it's time for planting acorn seeds I hope you develop the same confidence you have to make these broadcasts to make other things happen!, but then again, your channel may grow?Why not hope! There is much trash onyt that has! Btw, you may know this already, part of the word nostalgia is algia and means pain.something to contemplate, perhaps? Take good care, I hope your nana is having a good day! I hope you are too. Are your words only meant for others, or do you hear them, too? Have a blessed evening :)

Let me know if you want me to and I will leave my Email ? As I told you, I will be 68 on my next BD, so I have far less days ahead than you. I also have CP and can't walk. I am still trying, so keep going. You have time to get where you want to go.

Gee fella, you need a therapist, No? You are not unique. I can sit facing my closet and speak to a lense about my run away thoughts and concerns, which are many, but I'm not a fresh faced young man anymore. So I doubt anyone would click on my thumbnail no matter the tag line/click bait underpinning my face. Honestly the age old adage has merit, and that is if you think speaking to a therapist is for you, then you are crazy. I had a bout of depression this year and admitted so to my health practitioner, who then asked if I might want to talk with a psycologist. The question seemed innocent enough, as if the practitioner only wanted for me to reach out if I felt the need. I was facing homelessness and had yet to resolve how I'd dig myself out of the situation so I nodded in the affirmative. Well, a face to face 'Zoom' session was set up and by the time the meeting was to take place I was working things out on my own. The Zoom call with the therapist failed due to my handicap in tech systems, yeah no surprise here, I'm 67 years old. So a second call two weeks later was scheduled, I got it set up and the Zoom call connected but in a short minute it went south as no matter how much better I told the therapist I was feeling, all he could do was try to go back and dig into the moment I was feeling down. His objective was self serving as I began to understand that if he lost a client, he'd lose his fee. He kept prodding me so as to have a go at his learned analysis as to what triggered the event which I had put behind me. No amount of rebutting his opinion that I was fooling myself would put him at ease where on the other hand I'd accept any encouragement if he'd speak to me about how it was great news that I had found a pathway to happiness. I had to break in and tell him to take a long walk on a short pier as he just wouldn't give up in his selfish diatribe of telling me I was not out of the woods yet. Well he was all wet and through conviction of self worthiness and apptitude I have my new studio. I found a path and stuck with it and I even found help afforded to me by an orginazation that doesn't delve into my dark feelings, which by the way all humans will bare on occasion, but instead illuminates my strengths. Best regards young fella, p.s. My one bit of advice I'll share if you haven't picked up any ideas from this novel spelled out above is that you shut out distractions and just start earning a living doing something that is pleasing to your soul. I don't think you've found it in this closet you are speaking into, my goodness fella, did you not yet see that there's a great big world waiting for you out there? Go to your front or back door, no matter which open it and have a look out onto the horizon. Come on fella, go now and jump in with both feet. JUST DO IT!

Honestly, I don't care. I'm going to focus on me today and hope it creates a brighter future tomorrow. I'm still getting older, regardless. So may as well start investing now, so I build up the compound interest for the future.

Brother Matthew, IF man new the future, would he leave the house? Most likely not. That''s why we don't know what will be today. I do (still) worry about you. There is one exception to my statement: God knows the future and it is described in the Bible. What will be will be. So; it comes to this: It is not knowing about the future but NOT having fear (of the future.) You are young now Matthew.....Get off the mind negativity and enjoy. Do you have any pet? Enjoy the pet(s) Do you like sports? Take up boxing or wrestling..WITH A COACH. Doing the physical stuggles can address anger...which is another side of the dark/depression. Do you jog? If not, start. Do you speak w parents? brother? sister? Do you go to church? if not, go.

Interesting, but I think your insecurity of the future, can only happen if there is no God and we are truly on our own. But putting God in the equation changes everything, that means He is control, we are not just the product of our choices, we are only a small part into a bigger picture of which only God sees. Also I've learned that while having faith is good, it's not good to think on our own we will ever do much or anything. We propose, but only God decides after all, so we always remain hopeful of future given God will always be there. Only way to be hopeless is for those who have lost God, bc that is the one thing from which there is no turning back from.
