[@EthalaRide]

The more I learn about Sebastian Stan, the more of a hero he is to me, which is RARE to say. I admire the _hell_ out of him for his work ethic and his acting craft, his discipline and friendliness that all feel so _personal_ and private. Like you can be this kind of person in this kind of job and not need to be ON all the time or Mr. Charasmatic/Perfect. He just feels like a NORMAL, _REAL_ DUDE. I'm someone who values the concept of 'privacy' which seems to be and opinion held less and less in regard now-a-days. Acting is a JOB. It's a job people LOVE and take great pride in and joy from. I love acting and being an actor because I can be a storyteller. Because I have _permission_ *from the audience* to _lie to them_ and lead them through a series of emotions for whatever purpose, whether it's cathartic, inspiration, thrill, entertainment. There is a lot of emotional investment on the part of the actor to make it work. It's a FUN JOB that takes skill, craft, and hard work, but is often marred by this cartoonish glamorized version of charisma and false honesty where you're entire LIFE becomes _the subject_ and _you_ become an _object._ Seb just feels like a REAL person who enjoys his job, wants to do good work, works hard at it, and is a human being at the end of the day. His casual humanity, humility, and strength give me the grace and strength to embrace my own. Idk, I just want to thank Sebastian Stan for that. -I hope I don't sound like a psycho. lol-

[@friendship6668]

Cause this isnt an entertainment show where it's all fluff. Its honest, motivating, real world, real experience questions. TV shows and circuit promotion tours require the sound bite. This format allows the fleshing out of ideas. And Seb is so articulate and very mindful that when he is allowed to complete whole ideas it adds to depth and quality of the interview

Sebastian preaches patience with fitness but admits to having body dysmorphia and that makes me sad because I think part of the discipline with fitness is not limiting or even berating yourself if you skip a workout or eat a burger, and really just being happy in your body even if you have a little flub. I have friends who’ve taken working out to the extreme and just have an unhealthy relationship with food now.

[@GrubKiller436]

[@tuvaljungblad2501]

when does he talk about his body dysmorphia? like in what video?

[@GrubKiller436]

@@martina7957 "the ignorance this comment radiates omg" Can you seriously reason why I sound ignorant for what I just said? If you want a peak body or you want to be at peak performance for something, you have to be willing to put in the effort for it. That means sacrifice. Of course that is not going to be pleasant. That's comes with sacrifice. Our generation is so soft that people like Jordan Peterson, David Goggins, etc is the counter culture. It's pathetic that people who want something better for themselves are being judged by people like you, who refuse to admit that sometimes you have to give up something in order to gain something else. Everything is different for different people. You have different values than I do. But you can't shame or act like somebody's life is worse than yours just because they choose to makes sacrifices for their values.

[@GrubKiller436]

Let's be honest, whatever is being said of the friends here is not portraying them in a good light. That you have to make a statement about their decisions in their life being inferior to your perspective. I am mocked for being ignorant by intolerant people. If you want to excel in something, sometimes you will make mistakes. Sometime will you fail. And you will have thoughts in your head like you should've done better. And that is harsh on yourself, because of course it is; it's really fucking hard. But that doesn't mean there's something wrong with you. That means you have a conscience. You know which direction you're heading towards and you're reminded of your shortcomings. By your conscience. How great it would be if we didn't have a conscience? If we didn't feel the need to push ourselves towards something better? Only someone so spoiled would not understanding the meaning of sacrifice. So fuck off with judging people who care about putting effort in just because those people aren't you.

[@scottiedog5011]

Thank you for all this advice!!! My son, who is 17 years old, has unplugged from social media because of all the negativity. In two weeks he is graduating from high school. He has been in city swim for three years. He listens to "Champion" by Carrie Underwood and Ludacris. One of his go-to songs for swimming. For all the parents with kids in athletics: Have them unplug. Do family activities...picnics, go for water or tea. Just be there for your kiddo.

[@sethparry589]

If I saw Seb and Don homeless on the street, I would still deem them highly successful. Thank you for the wisdom and joy. Much Love. I'd split a pizza with you two any day... unless Seb eats it all first.

[@Alocin42180]

Today is My Birthday, I just found this video from a month ago, and I ADORE this Interview with Sebastian Stan - we are close in age - i'm 3 yrs older, but Every Single Thing He Talks About is True - especially being Creative, taking time for ourselves, finding a rhythm, living in a big city (I'm in Chicago) and growing up without social media - ACES All Around for this Man **** p.s. I just bought 'The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*CK' - As a bartender, this seems right up my alley - plus with the hardships my friends and I in the Restaurant Industry have gone through from the pandemic....this book sounds like a MUST READ.

If it's possible, can you remember what he said in the first question that isn't on here? The whole body dysmorphia part? As someone who also deals with BDD I really wanted to hear what he said on this so I was kinda sad that it wasn't included. :(

[@rashida8576]

Is it normal for me to say I wish Sebastian and I were friends? Lol He’s only 4 yrs older than me. He seems like a cool and genuinely nice guy and comes across as a very chill funny guy. Thanks for sharing Don. Great interview!

Sebastian is so adorable

[@ReadingRandomly]

So a week ago I watched this video. Last year in late February, I got Covid and have spent the last year fairly trashed. Since watching this video, I've turned a huge space in my house into a gym and workout center. I've exercised every day since. Thanks for the motivation, usually Marvel just inspires me to binge and chill.

[@AngelaShortt]

Wow! You beat COVID! You are an inspiration to me. Thank you for sharing this; you've inspired me to keep my exercise routine going. I was getting dismayed because I wasn't seeing the results fast enough. But I'm 63 years old, going on 64. I eat moderate portions of vegetarian meals and I've lost over 100 pounds in one year. Maybe I should be grateful that I haven't died from obesity, and keep exercising.

[@ReadingRandomly]

@@AngelaShortt Well dang, thank you. I have hit a slump in my workout routine. The effects from a year of being beat to hell lung-wise are still ongoing, and I was literally sitting there yesterday thinking, you have got to get back into your routine, you were doing so good, get up, get back, don't lose your motivation, but it was not working. And then I just read your message this morning, and dammit, now I feel like I'd be letting you down if I didn't go workout. So I am hitting send and going and putting on some pumping music and doing it. Thank YOU for the motivation. It's all a circle, isn't it? I wish you well, and keep going.

[@AngelaShortt]

@@ReadingRandomly You brought tears of joy to me! I'll be right with you, exercising and eating healthy!

I always struggle with exercise. Because I don't know how, I don't have a home gym like so many of the monthly challengers do, and I'm too terrified and self conscious to do those challenges. But this has been extremely motivational and inspiring. Thank you so much for this Don.

I recommend Caroline Girvan‘s workouts here on KZbin. I really like them (that‘s obviously a very subjective thing), maybe you wanna check her out :)

[@elinewt941]

As one of the monthly challengers, you really don't need a home gym to join!! Only need a pair of dumbells and most movements are even possible to do with only bodyweight. The community is really amazing and so motivating! Just don't let the lack of availability keep you from joining the challenges
