Video Transcription

well finally nice day to come out mountain-fold around minus 10 about Celsius why is time I Stan 30 0 I know maybe 2015 20 and Fahrenheit nice last days boys have been very cold minus 30 all the time ah feels good to be out just beautiful out here came out late doesn't matter some good fresh air just seeing the trees and the snow and I'll just give you a little look around just feel so good so Hayley it's about one thirty in the afternoon and I smell a storm coming not only that I saw in the news this morning there's a huge storm coming supposed to be here by the end of the afternoons I still got time around 30 centimeters of snow Oh 30 centimeters of snow I know maybe around the foot some good exercise yes you all need that how many times do I come out a week well depends on the week depends how busy I am but my answer to that well every chance I get and in general there's not obvious I can't come every day but there's no ones that I don't come at least a week now maybe not for 10 hours but I still come stronger than me I have to come it's a must it's a drug it's a natural drug all natural maybe you should try it sometime maybe you're saying or thinking well my life is too hectic too busy well most of our lives are hectic if you really want to do something you got to plan for it and do it that's the only way you'll be able to do it you know there's something I learned yes throughout the years it's important to have goals you know in life and I'll just have the goals but to aim at them so you can achieve them that's about the only way I can find and it's worked for me get yourself a goal aim at it and you'll achieve it means do it and you'll achieve it like let's say your goal is okay I'm going to take at least a certain time during the week even though it's hectic let's say a certain time on saturday it doesn't have to be ten hours five hours it could be an hour to but my goal is to get out at least once a week so now you have your goal now you have to aim at it meaning you have to take action and you will achieve it and you won't regret it or maybe you're saying I don't like going out in nature well I understand that if you've been out like say let's say twice during the last ten years it's understandable but let me give you this challenge have a goal to go out once a week okay it doesn't have to be again many hours but you know at least go out once a week for two months and then ask yourself that question again do I still not like nature and my guess is your answer is going to change so that being said very important guys have a goal aim at it and you will achieve it it's just like just like hunting here's a good example if I go out hunting what I'm hunting let's say is a deer now my goal is to get that dear but if I don't take the time to aim at that deer with whatever weapon I have I'll never get it now some of you say I'd like to go with someone I I love my wife my husband my kids but they don't like it well I know I'm very blessed to have a wife who likes the outdoors but I had to work at it it didn't just come like that my wife is from the philippines and she's from Manila and I lived there with her for three months and I know what Manila is and it's far from being nature so she didn't really have the love of nature when she got here I had to work at it let me give you a few tips first time I took her out was a nice summer day I brought her by a nice little river okay just spent a couple of hours there we came back now if you want someone to love nature don't take him out and do some hardcore survival training at minus 30 because you're going to lose him but after that another little trick I started buying her some gear not expensive stuff just so thing a first thing I bought her was a fishing pole fishing pole we went to that same river again she started fishing and let me tell you when she caught her first trout it wasn't a big one maybe six eight six six to eight inches sorry she was hooked not just the fish was hook she was hooked so he goes slowly okay and and I know a lot of people why they don't go out is because they're a little bit scared of being out in the woods well that's because of insecurity so if you bring someone out if you want to win them to nature take time to secure them hey just don't teach them survival skills but secure them it's going to be fine you'll see and slowly but surely you'll be able to do something so anyway with that being said make it a goal my message right now is because I know personally that being out here and I know a lot of you guys do too we all have hectic lives and you know being out here is just a big relief but it is for me anyway you know it's a change and if I don't come out at least once a week it doesn't go well so my suggestion to you hey make it a family kind of a thing you know go out on saturday or whatever day you can parents take your kids off that playstation and ipods and stuff now there's nothing wrong with that but this world system is engulfing the children and you know they're missing a lot out here or maybe I should say kids take your parents out whatever the case may be try it and you'll never regret it okay what talking too much you're absolutely right see you guys later now whenever we're out here and you have absolutely no cutting tool and you need some firewood for your fire we all know you know when you get yourself a nice big branch finding your place type place between two trees put it in and also just you know break the parts or when it gets too big what I'll do is I'll hit it directly on the tree like this to break it but something else I get you guys closer pick something else that you can do see if I'm at the right place here a little bit something else that you can do is if instead of using your hands to bust these branches you can do the same with your area where it's tight see nice and clean you didn't use your hands and also you have a nice little bundle of kindling already made for you that's ready to go let me find another piece after some work now it's time to relax this is the best time in front of the fire drinking something warm drying my clothes dry myself nice heat coming towards me it's 330 nearly gets dark around 4-415 know the signs of that storm yet start to snow a little bit too hot so this is what it's all about working hard make yourself semi comfortable and once it's done you feel good about it now that's a goal in itself you know it doesn't matter if your goal is big or small and start small as long as you do them my goal was to come here today and take a risk in that storm if it's going to come or not and make you guys a little video the same time just relax get myself some firewood and build myself a makeshift chair by myself a coffee have my goal I aimed right on it I put in action and I achieved it you know my wife we're talking about people that don't like to go outdoors well there's many reasons and we talked about that already because they're not used to going you know anything that is unknown to somebody could be frightening and it's not comfortable but you teach them slowly my wife if you remember I bought her fishing rod to begin with ten years ago then slowly I'd bring her out a little bit here a little bit there you know I wasn't always she wasn't always comfortable but after a while after securing her and you know spending a few overnights getting her some gear you know getting her her firesteel teaching her that first time she catch some kind of some type of tender with the five ever seen rod man she was exploding then we switched to the flint and steel and as soon as she got that char cloth and bundle and claimed it up boy you see it's little goals but if you don't aim at those goals you'll never achieve them you know it's logic it's simple so anyway didn't want to talk too much in this video but I just feel like it so challenge here's the game plan doesn't matter if you're not a kid teenager make yourself a goal once a week parents get those kids off of that computer iPods and stuff now there's nothing wrong with those things I mean it's fun we have fun with it but the truth of the matter is if they keep on staying on that they will never see the reality of life and in it in a sense is spending it in nature and that's something you don't want to miss and I'm not just talking about kids out there adults make yourself a goal aim at it be discipline and it's going to be rewarding believe me I'm sure there's a lot of you guys will say you're right I'm wrong about a lot of things but I'm pretty sure I'm right about this yeah it feels good after doing what you're wanting to do input alright that's enough of wasting your time so anyway thanks for watching again and we're taking the time watch my videos I really appreciate it and again make time go out there and vision a goal aim at it and achieve it makes life a lot easier being out here once in a while it's the microphone bushcraft bar Cheers it's getting very gray and I guess that store i'm going to start just a few more thoughts guys you know accomplishing goals again talking about that that's the subject on this video you won't always accomplish them that's a fact it's just like hunting when you go out you have a goal to get a deer you see when you aim and boom something happens and you missed okay but that's where you don't give up you keep on hunting until you get one and you will get one so that's just a thing to keep in mind not because it's difficult for you and you don't accomplish it may be one week the weather is not good or maybe you're sick don't let that stop you to go the second week concerning what we talked about not just because you don't have woods behind your your home where you're not in the wild Canadian bush or any type of bush don't let that stop you you know just go if you have a local park it doesn't really matter if you have to drive an hour do it you know make it it's never easy to accomplish goals there's 23 trees fine at least you're out don't let that stop you and you know concerning concerning my wife ten years ago she was not interested and now she's the one telling me well I want some gear i want some of this some of that hey that'd be a good idea you know she's loving it now but again you have to teach them to love nature and the outdoors if it's not in them already so I'm sure you guys can do it the only thing that's stopping you from doing it is yourself so go out there and accomplish some goals thanks for watching
