 What's up everybody? Ricky Krooth here. Welcome back to my channel. So today's video I want to give you an idea of my thoughts on first two weeks as a father. First two weeks of fatherhood has been so amazing. It really has. A lot of people say, you know, you just don't know how it's gonna feel until it happens and that's absolutely true. So many emotions so many just it's just an amazing feeling to be honest with you. Those of you don't know a couple weeks ago I had my first child, which was a little girl Whitley she is a very very special beautiful child and she sleeps. A lot of people say, you know You're getting sleep getting sleep. Yes. She is sleeping. She has slept since she was born She actually was born and made zero noise when she was born You know, you know, we gave her birth, you know She was on my wife's chest for a second They took her and and started, you know, cleaning her up and everything she didn't make a sound and Me and my wife were both after a couple after, you know, 30 seconds or so. We're like, hey guys, everything okay over there You know, they're like, yeah, she's fine. You know, I looked over there I could see she was breathing and everything she she looked like she was fine and she was fine She's just a very quiet child. She she hasn't made hardly any sounds and She she cries. She's crying a little bit when she's hungry, but then she sleeps and through the night She sleeps and so we have to wake her up to feed her My wife has an alarm set every two or three hours. Whatever the schedule is she wakes up She has to wake Whitley up to feed her. So, you know, that part of it I think we've been extremely lucky to have To have a baby that, you know, doesn't have colic Is it crying and keeping us up all night and all that good stuff? So that's been a complete blessing right there As far as my schedule It's affected me a little but everybody before, you know, leading up to the birth Everybody was trying to scare me into thinking that, oh god And I knew the whole time it wasn't gonna really affect me at all. I'm still getting up at 430 I'm still answering the DMs. I'm still going to the gym. I'm still working normal hours All that good stuff. So I'm gonna spend a lot of time with the baby as well I'll come home on lunch, spend time with her then All evening after work. I'm spending time with her then. So we're getting a lot of time Spent together and the cool thing is is anytime I want to spend time with her I can just drop what I'm doing and go spend time with her, you know My business and the way my life is I do what I want to do When I want to do it. That's the way that I've set it up And that's how I hope all of you guys will set your businesses up But I wanted to share with you, you know, on top of the amazing level of unconditional love and You know the feeling of being so blessed to have a child and to have a wife who is Probably the highest caliber of a mother that you could possibly ask for There's not a there's no way that there is a higher level of The way that she has been a mother So far, it's just completely incredible and you know, I expected her to be You know this way, but she's taken it even to a higher level than I expected beating all expectations and just Really on top of every little situation and you know just She's just so loving and so I've gotten you know, I'm kind of going on But I've been so lucky. I just want you guys to know how lucky I've been with you know My wife and my child so far super blessed, but when I the one thing I wanted to talk about That has really hit me hard and I've really realized You know, of course This is secondary to the unconditional love and that I have for her and my wife at this point Just keeps growing more and more and more but under that Okay, and just thinking about it in more of a success level business level motivation level so on and so forth The one thing that I realized really hardcore was how completely helpless Babies are when they're born You know, they are completely 100% dependent on someone to take care of them And it really made me think about how every single here made me realize this how every single human out there Every single one of them started From that they started from a baby who could not do anything for their self They couldn't talk. They couldn't you know focus. They couldn't change their own diaper. They couldn't feed their self Nothing absolutely zero, you know, you think of the most successful people in the world You know the highest of the highest successful people in the world, you know Steve Jobs and you know Warren Buffett and you know all these people that were that are the most successful And then you come down the different tiers of successful people every single person started from Not knowing what was going on having someone else take care of them and it really opened my eyes up to the Possibilities and what we can do in the span of our life. We're only here for so long We start out not being able to take care of ourself We all start from zero and we work our way from there and we create the life that we want to create From nothing. I don't care how rich your family was or what kind of family you came from or if you came from nothing Whatever wherever your circumstances are we all start from not being able to take care of ourself And I think that is just simply amazing And it give it should give you so much motivation to know that you can create The success that you want if anybody else in the world has done it then you can do it Anything you put your mind to it's all up here Anything that you put your mind to you can do it. So that was my big takeaway as far as You know what you know something that I've really just it's really made me think About the fact that we've all come from zero to be where we are today And we have all created the life that we have it also brings up another point You know, you are the reason why you are where you are if you are not as successful Because you want to be if you are a failure if you are incarcerated if you are this if you're that whatever if you're if you're a hundred million dollar net worth You're there because of you Okay, you're either successful because you or you're not successful because of you you created either way Right and it's all perspective So anyway, I just wanted to share that with you. I'm just overjoyed with how everything has went You know in terms of my life so far. I'm just super happy. This is the happiest I've ever been To be honest with you as well, and I'm just looking forward to 2020. It's going to be a really big year I'm really more focused on the work that I'm going to put into 2020 that's going to put me in position to have a breakout year 2024 like I'm focused on 2020 But I'm only focused on it because I know it's a stepping stone to build the momentum and pour gasoline on that fire For the business that I'm building For 2024. I just feel like 2024 is going to be my real breakout year. I think 2020 is going to be a breakout year But I think 2024 is going to be the breakout year. I don't know why I just feel that way for some reason It's just in my gut. So anyway, I hope you guys have an incredible day Thanks for watching.
