It’s crazy how much you will get in life from being a pleasant person. Remember the saying. What you put into life is what you get out. Be a pleasant person and pleasantries will come to you.

[@Huelogy]

Yeah like cancer and your family abondoning you.. Life isn't a fairytale.

[@desertrat4532]

Pleasant, today is seen as weakness and stupidity. Synonymous with kindness. Tats the same people pushing pedo lifestyles in schools and shooting up neighborhoods. In this world today, you keep your word, you're seen as a chump and used accordingly. The reason this man's channel has exploded is because he's the exact opposite of this country. As for the employer that got rid of him for being g competent, that has been the norm since the 90's and the nation shows it. From. It's churches and corporations to the military and hospitals.

[@CrudDeposit]

Sadly, no. It’s not that way. People have treated me like trash, use me for work, humiliated me, and all the works. Still happens. Pleasantries don’t come to you if you are a good, kind person. Pleasantries come from other people being a good and kind. I know from experience, and good kind people are rare, very very rare. However, being a good person despite horrible people and horrible situations shows resolution. And from experience, staying resolute like this is very very difficult.

[@jaimhaas5170]

It really should work that way in theory. But as many of these comments point out it often doesn't happen that way in reality. Guess where most of us have to live?

[@derBene]

I think being a pleasent person to be around is something different from always saying yes to everything you are asked to do. It's the other way around: The people who treat you badly and unfair are losing YOU and what you could have done for them. If family or "friends" treat you unfair then be on the lookout for people who acknowledge your worth. All the best to you.

[@deletechannel13]

I studied business in college, one of the valuable lessons I retained was an understanding of opportunity cost. The price you pay in missed opportunities.

[@MuleSkinnerWS]

Lukewarmness. Mediocrity. Settling for good enough. We short ourselves by default if we don't put our all in. Made perfect sense to me. My place shall never be "among those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat..." Thanks Dewayne.

[@CastleHassall]

Even people who try really hard and do right can have bad outcomes, there are external factors that can screw up even the best efforts.. It's not all about simple cause and effect and effort, there's more to it than that..

[@MuleSkinnerWS]

@Castle Hassall I understand the point you're raising, and I'm not trying to dismiss it. But I 100% disagree. On every path to success, there will be a road of trials. "...Whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.” That is road of trials. Do you hear it? There will be no achievement without struggle. It is not our fault which family we were born into, what life handed us, or what life didn't hand us. Life handed me childhood trauma and a predisposition for alcohol abuse. That's not my fault. But it is, however--- my responsibility. So, I went to therapy and rehab. I educated myself. I took responsibility for all of my life and all of my decisions. I'm now a very fulfilled and successful person. Don't quit on the road of trials. Keep going. If you're going through something tough right now, I'm rooting for you.

[@randybackgammon890]

​@@CastleHassall Totally totally agree.What about those who suffer dibilitating desease through no fault of their own(and please no glib platitudes about how we create are own luck etc.)Our efforts are only half the storey.Yes you increase your chances by putting in a good shift....but nothing is garanteed.And I speak as someone who goofed off and still did ok because I eventually got lucky! by accident of windfall.Had to capitalise on that luck for sure.But would be real dero now but for it.✌️

[@MuleSkinnerWS]

@Randy Backgammon Both the circumstances and the outcome are irrelevant. The focus is on the effort. Are you doing the best with what you have? Are you doing your best in spite of what you don't have? If you can't run, then walk. If you can't walk, then crawl. But don't give up. Effort. Effort. Effort. Even when defeat is eminent. There is no guarantee of success. There never was. The point is, do not be defeated WITHOUT having made a valiant effort to the bitter end. Success AND defeat are both honorable outcomes. Notice how TR said "Cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat". The only thing I'm speaking against is the "good enough" attitude and a half assed effort. I hit rock bottom before I became successful. But even then, success wasn't guaranteed. Nor was I lucky. I just worked with what I had and didn't quit. And I'm still working. The rent is due daily.

[@randybackgammon890]

@@MuleSkinnerWS Broadly agree with what you say bro.Particularly liked the bit about success not being guaranteed.Far more realistic than this manifestation thing where accordingly you only have to dream something hard enough for it to happen(which would of course lead to complete sosial collapse).The point I was trying to make was that conventional success,the kind that allows a 56 year old dude the time to smoke cigars ,drink coffee and delight in his large healthy family and(deserved)achievements is dependent on more than individual effort.Genetics,birth station, inherited talent and luck etc. all play a part and THAT part is unfair and undiserved.But I take your point about carrying on regardless because it seems to me the best any of us can do.✌️

[@MS-lg1bv]

Don’t be afraid to preach. The world is in great need of spiritual healing sir. Blessings to you and your family.🙏🏼🕊🌿

[@thecollective1584]

"Life is a series of networks"... Preach it, Sir.... The band I was in for my photo was the result of consistently being nice to a woman at a convenience store 14 years before this photo was taken. Through her, I joined her husband's band. Through it, I met. Through it, I met. Through it, I met. By having positive connections with everyone and still being able to hang out with everyone along the way, I ended up in a truly great band that was doing shows in an area that was 3 1/2 hour drive E2W and 2 1/2 hour drive N2S. It's all about the connections.

[@avagrego3195]

You’re so right!

[@powderdtoastman6215]

Dont beat yourself up, Dwayne. You explain things perfectly, and I understood the message. Keep up your life lessons, they're always helpful to me.

[@catachandevilfang]

You’ve helped me a lot sir. Got me through a divorce and into my dream job, all in the space of a year. I wanted to give up worse than I’d ever wanted to this past year. Thank God, my friends, my family, and you that I resisted those thoughts. Things will never be the same, and the future is always uncertain, but I am proud of who I am, what I’ve learned, and what I’ve accomplished. My late grandmother always said that angels are people who show up in the lives of other people who need them. You were one of mine, and ever since I’ve tried to be that person to others.

[@steffonwhitaker295]

This was completely needed for me. I have honestly held on to something’s because I was frustrated that there wasn’t any tangible repercussions of people who wronged me. But you are absolutely right they might not get punished but they miss out on a bigger blessing. Thank you so much for letting the Lord use you.

[@emmanuelantoineschoop7532]

There is this two terms in Economics, explicit cost (money, getting fired, breakups) and implicit cost (networking, friendship, opportunities) I think these terms will help explain this video a little bit better. This video has helped me today, I do thank very much for the effort behind all of your videos

[@RoryStockton]

So true. Be patient, look gently at the details, think for a few moments to take it in, relax your eyes, slow down, appreciate all the fun you're having, stare into spaces and defuse that devil in your mind, that was picking at you for some time. Stay really slow for the next few hours, in many of the things you're doing winding down, waddle when you're on carpet sometimes, tell people you're waddling. Have fun. And relax.

[@elisasmith1609]

This lesson has such broad application. It applies to my illness to health journey. If I skimp today on bettering my body I may not end up in the hospital, but I'm also not feeling my best or building my health which robs me of energy, time and smiles today and down the road. Thanks Dewayne. You are like a papa to me. Love you!

[@JB-wy9cw]

Another way to see it is that networking and connecting with people can create circumstances. So consciously deciding to create circumstances for yourself is a very useful skill and once you are good at it, you can put yourself around people who can help you progress in life and create situations that can lead on to more results of circumstance. Learn to create circumstances that put you in situations that could benefit your choices.

This one gets me thinking. I like it. We often don’t think about how powerful our actions whether subtle or not have a major ripple effect in our lives and those around us. Mindfulness is key.

[@Crown694]

Dewayne, thank you for your wisdom, I witnessed NO foolishness here! I'm not a horse person, but someone from another channel took a small segment of you dropping one of your precious pearls, and made it into a short.. So here I am, a firm fan, one video in.. Thank you, I believe God is certainly using you.. relationship wise, thank you. You've given me more to think on, than you may ever know. So much better listening to you, than so many others insisting everyone else is a narcissist, you end up in that finger pointing hamster wheel. Going round and round, nothing changes, nothing improves... Once again THANK YOU!

[@philliprichards1660]

You sir have a knack for critical thought. I believe that many people either have or lack the things you are speaking about because it is a result of their character. An empathetic individual is more critical of themselves for example and a narcissistic individual will be more critical of the world around them. World view has a huge impact on an individual's failure vs. Success. Thanks Dewayne!

[@ChristianRock62]

Brother, I have admired your videos for some time now, and as a poet and an old-school heart similar to yourself, I just wanted to pen a poem in your honor as a thank you gift. God bless. The Horseman A man bred from the common earth, with wisdom swelling like grapes on tender vine, has this era found a treasure of rarity and worth, like perspiration laving a bottle of aged wine. I feel the words of his heart assuaging my quaking bones, for there is yet hope in a crack of manufactured concrete, for then nature's light shall shine forth and take back her throne, and archaic life shall again be complete. A man betwixt the power of horses both wild and tamed, with teachings inflamed with passion beyond compare, for by his lessons shall your pride be pricked and mamed, if you but apply it within to mend and repair. Through the corridors of times have we seen such men come and go, be it men of grandmasters, pantomimes or renowned fame, but fewer be those with rudiments of prudence, intergrity and honor, as the horseman of red earth's flame. Within his soul are melodies heard of songs devoid of lunacy, like an owl perched on the cold branch beneath the moon, for he seeks not the limelight of the peacock but chants usefully as the quiet ballad of the lune. Please do learn of this humbled poet, for the benediction of his ways will touch thy anxious and busy mind, cease from the professionals who of love do not know it, and learn of the horseman of red earth prime.

Another excellent video D’Wayne! This video that you made reminded me of how my parents got along with others. My mother tried to be supportive and encouraging, but she stopped because of my father arrogant, sloppy, disrespectful, and careless behaviours. I always knew they never connected on a spiritual level; even though my dad never saw it. To a certain extent, I was also very patient and kind to him for many years, but I gave up on him as well since I could not stand his stupidity and hypocrisy. I’ve passively ignored him for several years now, and couldn’t care less about him. Now he wonders why nobody cares about him and why he has all sorts of financial problems/debts that he cannot pay off… It really takes a spiritual understanding of life in order to grasp many moments or challenges we face.

It takes too much effort :( Seems like we're all upside down---what's right is wrong what's good is evil~ Folks are confused and ... Way too self-centered. Plus, don't care if they have a negative impact on others, by the way they behave. If only thoughtful and considerate behavior was a thing ? How much better the world would be! Let's all agree.... "It starts with ME!"

Amazing insight, thanks Dwayne. passive consequences - missed opportunities for bad behaviour, brilliant!

[@redcapote4760]

What a great message. Most people do not think about what they miss out on themselves for not treating others well, or even being minimally courteous. But what's worse, they not only don't think about what they're missing out on with their own potential, but what they fail to provide others to their potential. The younger generation seems to feel no need or desire to connect with anyone. They seem so isolated in their own endeavor. Never thinking there may be others who are willing to help if they showed any personality or desire to connect even the slightest amount.

Great video, I see your point. As a person with a disability, I've been paying a price on alot of different levels, JOB wise & with my family members due to me having a physical disabilities

You remind me of my grandpa who recently passed away. Thank you for your wonderful content. ❤

Perfectly well said…very little mud in these waters, lol. Bad behavior always has a price; you just always pay it up front. And a lot of the time you won’t know until it’s way too late. This video very succinctly illustrates a lesson I’m regularly trying to instill in my young bucks as they grow up to young men.

Thank you-you explained that much better than anyone I’ve heard! The technical term would be ‘opportunity cost,’ but I like ‘passively paying’ better. It emphasizes the continuous or even compounding nature of the things you can’t afford to not do.

Words of wisdom people!! Pay attention!!!

[@garywanner7860]

Understood exactly what you were saying, gave me something to think about when I see the horses this afternoon!

Exactly what I need when I need it. Going through a breakup right now, and only recently realizing how much of a mess I am right now, mentally and such. Paying the price, but welcoming the lessons.

[@woutr9024]

I am in the exact same position. I fucked up bad and now I am realizing what I lost and how bad I am at taking this. It is my first time this happens and realizing for the first time I have mental issues.

This is helpful. I'm going to have to watch this again and again until the point sinks in. It's easy to relax and not strive because the consequences don't seem apparent right away. Thank you.
