"Under promise and over perform." The best advice out there.

59 y.o. male here. Everything in this video is spot on. I grew up with a very wise grandfather and father who instilled these lessons in me as a child. As a result, I've had a wonderful life and thank God every day for what the men in my family taught me.

“The World doesn’t owe you understanding.” I learned this very lesson over the past decade. Thanks for dropping this gem!

My only disagreement is that these truths are for over 30 men. They’re for everyone. Excellent video.

I just lost my mother through a natural death! This message is exactly what I need to hear, growing up outta her house now... Back on my own

In regards to your “there is no perfect time” statement, I staunchly follow this Denzel Washington’s quote: “Without commitment, you will never start, but more importantly, without consistency, you will never finish”.

[undead]

the "perfect opportunity" thing is actually a cop out you use yourself when you're scared of change. You know, deep down, that the perfect moment is never gonna come, so postponing whatever you want to try indefinetely is inevitably the end result of the "perfect opportunity" strategy.

I’ll be 27 in May. I started seeing all of this the best 3 yrs, especially in ‘22. What a eye opening year for me. I’ve learned a lot. By 37, 10 full years from now, I’ll be the absolute best version of myself. That’s a fine goal of mine broken down into several. This was great advice & I needed this to be engraved more.

This should really be mandatory viewing for all young men just not the over 30 group.

Paralysis by analysis is a real thing. Had a conversation with my brother about that.

Facts! If you treat her like a celebrity she will treat you like a fan

[ryancascardo]

OG throwing down some dad/uncle wisdom with this list. Thank you for all the solid advice

“Brutal truths” for men over 30…

By 30 we been smacked upside the head with reality so damn hard & so much & have learned to accept it, ain’t nothing brutal left about whatever is left.

Life is not fair, and life is what you make it....

I needed to hear the point that "it's never going to be the right time". I always work towards a multitude of goals, wanting to achieve them all to perfection before pursuing the next chapter. This has resulted in putting off entering serious relationships, starting a family, enjoying travelling the world, pursuing other interests and so forth. I always figured time was on my side. Now I am 34 and am left baffled, wondering where all that time went. I can't explain it but it seems time just passes by faster and faster the older you get so you have to get moving. Another comment stated with was a cop-out. I am not sure this is always true but it could be an underlying motive in your subconscious many are not even aware of. For myself I want to have all my ducks in a row so to speak in order to make sure I am well positioned to provide for a family and spouse and have put off other personal desires due to other obligations. This video and reading some of the comments have given me lots to think about. Thank you.

Right on OG!! I couldn't of said it any better! The one that applied most to me is that, there's never gonna be a perfect time. U give advice, knowledge, wisdom, mentorship, & tough love all @ once, & I love it. These are definitely crucial things men 30 & over need to know. I'm in my mid 40s & still have much to learn. Keep doing what you do man!

[jimmyejohnson]

I'm a "little" over thirty, brother. Preach!

[amarstar]

Well over 30 here. Everything is spot on and the sooner you learn these things, the better. I'd add that you need to invest in some decent dress clothes as you get older. Even if you don't have a job where you dress formally, it's inevitable as you get older the more formal events you need to attend (marriages, funerals, business related, etc.). Great video!

[carlaalegria]

I think this can apply for both men and women, part of growing up it's be willing to make changes and accept that you can't always control your circumstances but only they way you react to them.
