Living Alone Diaries | Overcoming setbacks, Best food market in London, My gym workout & Bouldering.

[@halfrev]

Honestly Obi, the last 3-4 minutes of the video touched me hard. I am turning 28 and I have the same thoughts all the time. I come from a background of being a semi-professional triathlete to now banging nails and cutting boards. It is hard to see the meaning or purpose of our lives sometimes, but you are right! In those times, it's good to slow down and remember life is too short to get caught up in what could have been and look at what can I do in the future to get where I want to be. Your Living Alone Diaries has helped me start developing myself into the man I want to be. I have found it hard living alone since my last serious relationship. These videos help me to remind myself that it is okay to be alone and for my life to be my main focus. Honestly, I wish I could find a friend like yourself to walk this path with. You and your content touches us way more than you give yourself credit for. Keep doing what you do man and much love and respect to you!

[@ObiVincent]

Keep going and it’ll all get easier day by day! I’m like you learning to enjoy my own company and I honestly think that there will be a point when the right relationship will happen but till then we have to just enjoy LIFE! everyday we wake up is a luxury and I’m learning to not take it for granted!

[@pranavkarodia767]

Can we take a min to appreciate his talent.. Very calm and composed guy...Will be reaching 1 million soon.. Love from India❤❤

[@Moonbeingstrandedonearth50]

I'm 48, 49 in July. I will tell you why I follow you. For inspiration. For Peaceful ambiance. For hope to be the best Me while I have the chance to. I've always wanted to workout and improve myself and body. I struggle with emotional damage and past trauma internal pain. I'm not how I used to be, but I'm not who I have longed to become. You, your life is like looking at a friendly person from afar, saying, "Wow, I'd like to be a little more like him one day." That's why I am subscribed and watch.

[@RJ12347]

Nice Be the best version of yourself Improvements never really stop... mentally, physically socially spiritually etc

[@MrDallasboi]

Almost at 1 million! That being said u absolutely have NO reason to EVER feel like you're not good enough. You have changed my life with your content and I will forever be grateful 🙏🏽 : ) Please continue to shine and walk in the greatness that you've established for yourself!

[@klb097]

Man, I feel you. 30s. March birthday. Imposter syndrome. Comparison. Overthinking. Daily improvement somehow only leading to more questions and dissatisfaction instead of contentment. Such a difficult thing. Thanks for your reflection. Inspired me to get some time in the bouldering gym today. Thanks for the peace, brother.

[@asiinaction3054]

I live alone for past 6 years and your videos help me to be positive thanks 😊

[@bronwenjames2450]

"You are exactly where you're meant to be right now" That quote helps me find clarity when I find myself thinking that I'm not enough. I love watching your vlogs, they have helped me to be ok with and accept who I am. You're such a lovely person and so calming, keep on doing what you're doing, you're amazing and help so many of us 💜🙏

[@theshademercenary]

I appreciate your authenticity and willingness to be vulnerable on this platform. I'm not a content creator but I venture to believe that it would be easy to try and sell a larger than life image but to be real and honest and share your failures, doubts and worries is what makes you stand out. So, hopefully you continue to find more of the peace you're searching for. It's a process and it ain't easy but clearly you're willing to do the work.

[@MayaAgrippine]

I love your content. It's so peaceful and it surprises me when you said you were angry person. Well, you did a great job to overcome it because your content calms me down in a way. I'm very calm and peaceful myself and like you said: We should more often just chill and relax and enjoy. Do meditation and soul search and find some deeper answers. I'm lucky i found this almost 20 years ago and it's the best feeling ever. Everyone who works hard, has something great to share. And your inner thoughts are wonderful. Strong man but calm and soft inside is amazing to see. Keep sharing your inner thoughts diaries

[@Sravan.Allopi]

I'm turning 30 this year and I made a pledge to myself to make the transformations in my life this year to set the tone for the rest of my life. I', 61 days deep into 75 hard, been focusing my vision and working on building my business as well as shooting content and putting my message out there on social media to scale my reach and become better. Maybe it's just the usual creators I watch who happen to be in the US, I genuinely feel that your channel was put on my recommended page at the right time as I started to feel that maybe my story in London might not be as interesting to the wider audience. Thank you for the vlog man, I'm keeping the focus on becoming a better creator!

[@TheDigitographer]

Your editing and filmmaking skills are impressive. Storytelling is everything. Keep it up 👑

[@jerryedouard]

I love when Obi slows everything down just to talk. I honestly listen to the vlogs while I’m doing very intense workouts or driving to work. Thanks Obi for all that you pour into your art.

[@boston1976]

As humans, there can be a tendency to compare ourselves to others for sure, which takes away from our own accomplishments. Give yourself permission to say you are good enough. I will say I don't tend to follow anyone on KZbin until, say, last 6 mths. I found 3 people and you are one of them. I think it is weird to follow someone I don't know personally, but your content resonates for many reasons. With close to 1 million followers, that speaks volumes to how your content hits. I say keep up the good work. I bought plants for my condo because of watching you. Your space looks homey and inviting, which made me think let's try that vibe. You never know how you're impacting lives. You may think it's the exercise when it could be simply about the plants😉

[@ISWIMWITHFISH]

No such thing as setbacks king!! Only lessons!! Have a great week! Notification squad let’s goo!!!

[@louiswatson6227]

Hey man, I'm praying with you for your eye health & recovery here in LA, CA your channel has helped me so much the least I can do is send up a prayer for you!

[@aksharsolanki328]

The last part of the video is a soothing therapy. We're all running the race to be somewhere we don't even know if it's worth the squeeze. At times you gotta relax and take your mind off the negative thoughts racing through the head.

[@sillothian4618]

Always look forward to these vlogs on a Sunday evening. Really appreciate your down to earth outlook on life and training. You may not always think it but you help inspire loads of us to live our life to its fullest potential. All the best with the eye operation pal.

[@jgar12]

These Vlogs help me to overcome my problems and anxiety. Thanks for sharing your lifestyle, love from Spain Obi!

[@alicia_nicole444]

Showing your vulnerability not only makes YOU stronger but ENCOURAGES US. Keep being you❤

[@apdelar6015]

Loved the editing and shots in this one! (its always cool but this time specially)! You inspire a lot of us to get out, try things and enjoy life in a peaceful way. That alone is enough!

[@angelicareyes9596]

the end of your video really hit home. thank you for being vulnerable with us. Your content really inspires me - much love!

[@chiarasalfa4256]

Hi Obi, I feel the same way. I constantly question where I am in life and get constantly anxious about it. You are doing amazingly

[@life.withrandy]

This is why you are one of my favourite content creators. there's not many people that I watch on KZbin that I can relate to, make me think or that will share points that are constantly in my head. I just turned 30 in January and had my second daughter 3 days ago and its only now that I'm realising that the overthinking and procrastination is not benefiting me. what people think doesn't really matter its how we as individuals feel about ourselves that matters. WHAT DO I WANT TO DO. everything else is just a bonus. After many years of self-doubt and all the other things that life throws at us that keeps us down as well as working ridiculous long hours. I've realised that I'm not Happy. I'm happiest when I'm working out, I'm happiest when I'm dancing, I'm happiest when I'm spending time with my loved ones. So I decided to start my KZbin channel and I've got myself back in the gym, meditating even reading everyday (my mum couldn't believe it when she saw me reading, used to hate it with a passion) and working less hours to spend more time with my partner and daughters. Honestly, keep going I always look forward to your videos. They have been one of the reasons why I've started to make some changes in my life. Appreciate, you brother. (PS - Hopefully one day we could make a video together)

[@nanxswsc3207]

Your doing so well my man, you boost my Confidence every time i watch your videos. Thank you

[@christaallen2105]

Thank you for being vulnerable with us because it helps to hear that other people are battling the same things. And working out has really helped me with those emotions.

[@alexsobotie9139]

Stunning production quality!!

[@jeodude]

I’m in my 40s…I get that feeling at times. I look back at my 20s when I had a major drinking problem. I was so full of anger, anxiety, depression. Then when I got my 30s I found sobriety. Now I’m pretty lean and athletic. I go bouldering, snowboarding, yoga, meditation, see a therapist, and workout regularly. Nowadays I’ve done much more then I ever did in my 20s. I see where I used to be to where I’m at now…man…light and day difference.

[@fitnessclubbeat]

Your doing so well my man, you boost my Confidence every time i watch your videos. Great vlogs Obi! Keep your head up and keep at it - looking forward to your website!

[@barrymckenzie98]

Obi I haven’t seen your content in sometime but I have always appreciated your honesty and transparency. My brother we all have moments of doubt and thoughts of where we should be in comparison to others. Until recently I realized that I should only be concerned with have I grown from the previous year and that has brought a sense of accomplishment to my life. Keep pushing and growing you are an inspiration .

[@tamisajohn-baptiste6090]

Love the vibe of your blogs ..very calming and relaxing 😌

[@linh2246]

I've been watching your videos for a while now and I think you mentioned yourself struggling from anxiety in one of them. I have generalised anxiety disorder myself, I just want to say, anxiety is hard, it is often misunderstood as incompetency but we have to believe in ourselves, we are the only one who is able to not let our thoughts stand in our journey in accomplishing our goals. You got this, we will be here for you, much love from your viewers Obi !

[@tori-annholness6256]

Thank you for being so vulnerable. Thank you for the vlogs. I am sorry about the news in having to get the right eye treated. Stay strong 💪🏾

[@mikehenry872]

I follow you because you are very open with your thoughts , and I relate in a lot of ways, just know we are all here for you and with you, never give up my friend

[@xonix4178]

The last 5min of this vlog really hit home cause I'm in a time of my life where I'm just over thinking about everything and just that "calm down and enjoy life" really just made me feel abit more relaxed..you're amazing man keep doing what you do

[@maksdmt]

Hello Obi! I have been watching your channel for a long time and you motivate me to live an open and full of impressions life. I also thought a lot about why unfair, if you can call them that, things happen to me. After all, I try so hard in all areas of my life and deserve at least a little encouragement. Apparently, the universe often gives difficult tasks and trials to those people who can cope with them, go through it and become stronger and better. I really want to believe it. Stay strong, what doesn't kill makes us stronger.

[@sibonisso]

I appreciate the monologue during the wall climbing part of the video. I am going through that myself.

[@ebal08]

Obi i truly appreciate you, your work and how vulnerable you allow yourself to be. Thank you. You are worthy and you're an inspiration to many of us who love your content. ☺️

[@LoisLovesFitness]

All bless you, I’m sorry your going through some set backs, you’ll come out stronger, I’m an oversharer too, take the best rest and time off for your birthday 🎉

[@LoisLovesFitness]

Also what kinda camera were you using for most of your vlog ?

[@pesoaresestudos]

I love your reflections, Obi. They help me reflect too. A good week to you, my friend :)

[@AlphaMotivation92]

Obi , Love U. Love your weekly blogs. Keep them coming ❤🎉

[@thekidd7]

I don't care, when I see a film or tv show 'written and directed by Obi Vincent'.. I will not be surprised. Your talent is actually mad ❤

[@flameemperor888]

Dude your like a good person and content creator that is why many people follow you. Keep safe and have a good one.

[@pesoaresestudos]

I love your reflections, Obi. They help me reflect too. A good week to you, my friend, you can do this :)

[@kyrangiddings]

Hey Obi , absolutely love the vlogs and really glad you started them and continue to do so, I've been following you for since you had 8k subscribers and I believe in you and your doing an amazing job buddy, look how far you have come! Think you should definitely put yourself out there this year and try living away from London - maybe just do it for a month or two see how things go , The thing is if you don't try you wont know, and you can always come back. I think I speak for everyone who loves this channel we love the vlogs because you are telling a story , the OBI VINCENT STORY!!! Honestly you make my Sundays and I always look forward to your vlogs! Keep up the amazing work and remember brake the mould!

[@ColeLynn]

Another GREAT vlog Obi. Never think you aren’t good enough or haven’t accomplished certain things in life. You have and are changing many lives. Love from the U.S ❤

[@amirhosseinghasemzadeh3103]

Obi your video give me a good and peaceful energy, Thank you so much, and keep up the good work

[@thiagoovargas]

Thanks for sharing your feelings and vulnerabilities with us. You do a great and different job on social media showing us your real world, we hope we can support you.

[@flymofoisthebest3885]

That peace bit at the end is spot on 100% at age 36, peace of mind and self confidence is so important

[@ianrobert6239]

You are more than good enough, Obi. The reason we follow you is that you are very inspirational and a very nice human to boot.

[@nausicaa94]

I look forward to these vlogs each week. I love hearing your thoughts on life.

[@TES-bt8sv]

I can sympathize with you. I've been working out for about 45 years. 4 years ago, I abruptly became a diabetic. To keep my blood sugars in normal range, I have lost 45 pounds, yet I still feel that I am in good shape. Two and a half hears ago I tore and detached my left shoulder supraspinatus muscle. Two surgeries later and only a few weeks of rehab left, I tore my right supraspinatus and snapped my upper bicep tendon, giving me the 'popeye' look. My surgeon says I'm too old (64) to repair it. I am now two months into resuming full training since December 2020. I have never stopped working out as best I can. My philosophy throughout any setback is as Gladys Night and the Pips say: "...keep on keeping on."

[@monjournalfinancier]

Hi Obi. You are such a kind, genuine, down to earth, hard working man... who wouldn't want to follow you? Have a nice week! Love from France 🇫🇷

[@melglenn8871]

Obi ur good man. Just keep waking up in the morning. Always maintain good health.

[@ForwardLooking832]

Nice to have a vid that keeps it real. Most everyone has these times of doubt and ruminations...

[@thekidd7]

Nah, you're actually SO creative and talented as just a videographer/editor its actually unfair! Add that to the fact that its not really your main job as a content creator/ fitness coach, you should really just stop and recognise just how talented you are. Then you have other businesses on top of that?! Amazing. Inspirational. You're appreciated my guy, remember that ❤

[@teefit3102]

we love the vlogs, we love the real you , the inner obii

[@benmachekanyanga859]

Enjoying the direction you're going in and sharing your "all roundedness" (fitness and real life). Love to hear the wins and the challenges you have/will overcome to continue winning. I can relate to the eye issue. I have keratoconus in on both eyes and in my early thirties the fear of what could go wrong in the op was almost crippling but everything turned out fine. It will for you too. God's got your back.

[@smac1954]

Dope vid and the editing is crazy....im in early 50s and yep....just chill is becoming my mantra.....awesome lifeatyle

[@Kelbyj02]

wow this video.. I’m at a point where things aren’t where I want them to be. And I find myself angry most the time. I just want to be happy and better, and find the peace like you said. You’ve been such a help for me to push myself and to break the mold that I’m in. Thanks obi💪

[@User-ci3su]

Great video man and the vulnerability and ability to open up like that is really appreciated. Reminds me and I'm sure many others that we're not the only people going through those sorta things and that it is normal. Thank you I love the channel!!!

[@LordBeezy18]

In regards to self reflection and asking yourself "have you done enough" is a good and bad thing in my personal opinion. It gives you a chance to see how far you've come already and then fuel that fire inside to set bigger and better goals and get after them. Love the content and getting to know more of you then just fitness. Keep the content rollin fella 🙏🔋💙🦁

[@elinanikolopoulou1769]

I am seriously in love with this guy

[@josecmunozromero]

Such soothing content broski 💆🏽‍♂️. Keep up the hard work!

[@kodiakkinbacher7173]

Thank you for your thoughts and vulnerability Vincent. Youre an incredible, gentle, kind man and what you’re doing here is an amazing work and helping many others. I’ve only been watching your videos recently but you’ve motivated me a ton. I too am going into my early 20s, plan on proposing soon, and am about to finish college, so there’s a lot on my mind. I understand the feeling of getting older and wondering what’s next. What helps me the most is knowing that God is in control, that He watches over all of us, and although I may not get life right all the time, I can still look to Him, seek His help, and He will be there. I’m not sure what you believe or not but I encourage you to do the same, you won’t regret it. Much love bro, again thank you

[@gjbaan2860]

Just came across your vlogs. How pure strength and vulnerability can co-exist. Great balanced videos - like this one - We need more of this. It is all about all-round human growth, physical, emotional, mentally and spiritually. Definitely be watching your next vlogs. :)

[@johnnyhangs2635]

The peace that your videos brings helps with my anxiety. Thanks the music in the background really helps . What is this music called

[@jackhodges3999]

Thanks Obi, wise words at the end. Sure there are many of use that turn to you/ these types of videos for assurance and peace that it’s okay to be alone or have these thoughts. Thanks again, your content is always awesome!!

[@Enzejansen]

your bouldering is quite explosive for such a big guy, props to you!

[@RickyJ718]

In just a few days I'll be 38 and I can't remember the last birthday I actually enjoyed. I can't agree with you more -- the older we get, the more we reflect. Thank you as always for sharing your thoughts and feelings in these vlogs. Early Happy Birthday to you, Obi! Pisces or Aries?

[@ObiVincent]

Pisces :)

[@lunaluna5717]

Hi Obi, don't stop vlogging. I really enjoy your vlogs because of the simpleness. Sometimes you are seen using a wood stick to come down. Is it Palo Santos? What else do you use (sage, incense)? May be you can do a video how you came across meditation and using the wood stick etc. and where you get these things and how you choose the right ones for you

[@LaroyaErwin]

Hello, I’m your new follower from Asia and thank you for making this kind of video! Truly inspiring and motivating. I was stunned by the words you said on the last few minutes on this vlog. Very heartening and inspirational. When you said that “Life too short, calm down”, oh mennnn! This helps me a lot as an overthinker. Thank you. I love your vlog! God bless you and Keep it up king! Hope you visit Philippines soon! 👑

[@versaillesthomas]

I'm turning 40 this Sep and can relate to your line of thinking and overthinking!

[@JonMidori]

First time seeing the content. Subbed before the 3 min mark. You had me at noodles and anime let alone the inspiration and rest of the content.

[@wilfsymes1098]

Obi your content is really really influential for my life

[@tristambarden510]

I get these feelings too, Obi, but your vlogs are amazing, and you are doing so well. Keep the faith.

[@barbara7-y8j]

Great vlogs Obi! Keep your head up and keep at it - looking forward to your website!

[@nekperez5995]

U know what. I’m Cuban and we face a lot of issues every time. And we keep going and fighting. Never give up. You’re doing well, you have proven to be a warrior. It’s ok to have those thoughts, but don’t let them to master you. Hard work, chill out as well and keep going you’re going very well.

[@KrazyyJ17]

Hey Obi, what's the ID on the knit you're wearing at 1:39 ? So fire!

[@jesseleonard827]

That Duck Confit wrap is so good. My favorite thing at Portobello market for sure.

[@DSM2009]

Keep living that beautiful life Obi. Also need to buy some of your clothing online 👊🏾👍🏾🤞🏾

[@dylangrieveable]

You're awesome dude- thanks for being you.

[@NormaaIi]

Been following for ages just lurking and always loved your style in clothing. Where did you get your grey sweater? It looks so amazing

[@asherharris7630]

Love this video. I can relate a lot to the bouldering and cycling to help calm the mind. They are to me what weed is to stoners. Also, great choice of climbing centre, my favourite!.

[@josepcasuto8602]

Great video Obi. Thank you!

[@NardM69]

Hey Obi just watched your vlog. Keep doing what you are doing. Your vlogs are reaching thousands of people and it helps. Like you I’m an introvert but have learned a lot along the way. Continue to be your authentic self. Live for you and not for others. Your achievements will always be different from others. The humbleness you have will always out way the others. You have a lot to be thankful for man and you are reaching millions and helping them. You may think your vlogs are boring but as an introvert….I LOVE THEM lol

[@bigredandhiscrew9885]

Definitely with you on the overthinking. I make 30 this year but I have to remind myself of all the accomplishments and blessings I’ve acquired so far and should go about living life with my head held high. It’s tough at times but you are worth that and much more man. Keep being a great person and great things will follow you no matter the age and stage you’re in bro 💪🏾💪🏾

[@DSM2009]

Obi you are good enough, you're an inspiration and what you have accomplished is amazing. I know that the impostor syndrome is on your mind but you are just so much more than a fitness man and that you're human and can give insight into your life and what you experience which is why you have the following that you do have because we can relate and can empathise what you are going through in part. Keep bringing those honest videos to inspire and motivate 💪🏾

[@melvinquesada2177]

I enjoy watching your blogs. You inspire me to do more in my everyday life. Keep doing your thing brova. My prayers are with you. Stay strong. You do more than most. Can't wait for your merch to drop. Keep up the good work.

[@courtneytitus7483]

Hey Obi keep doing what u do bro. One lesson I have learnt is everything happens for a reason. It always good to analyse yourself. You should never stop evolving and growing🙌🙌. Thank u for the content it put me and many others in a good place. 😃

[@MoneyInMouthProductions]

So my volume on my computer was all the way down and auto play was running. I pulled up my KZbin tab and here I found some random vlog playing in the background. I watch a minute or two of it and low and behold it's pretty damn dope! Great style, great music in the background and pretty dope B-roll. Good stuff man!

[@tronseaddict]

Great video Obi! I currently have keracotonus, which opthermologist do you use?

[@mg508]

Subscribed to the mail list on your site. Already got a glimpse of your collection and I know I will love it because it looks simple, classy and minimalist as I like pretty much anything. F**k! Another operation 😓 So sorry, man, I really am. But you know something? I lost the love of my life to a car accident a few months ago and one thing I've learnt: when you can't change it, just push through it. No soft talking, no shoulder pat, do not question yourself. Just keep pushing with all you got. Every single day. And if you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel? Just keep going forward. All the best, my friend.

[@ObiVincent]

Wow this was deep and thanks for sharing!

[@kartrish1]

Love your weekly blogs. Keep them coming ❤🎉

Hi Obi I think we all overthink at times and it's ok to share how you feel what I like about you Obi your real no matter what and in life I am 53 now and I am still looking for answers but watching your vlog inspires me to give the best of me to my son things will fall into place fall over 7 times get up 8 times from Denzel Washington 🙏💯
