Not Every Feeling Is Telling You the Truth
I just got back to Los Angeles after a trip.I was tired. Hungry. A little nostalgic. And for reasons that weren’t immediately obvious, feeling somewhat down.Nothing particularly terrible had happened.But something was happening inside me.Airports do that to me sometimes.They are strange places. We arrive excited about where we’re going, exhausted from where we’ve been, and occasionally carrying memories of people who are no longer traveling with us.The airport doesn’t remember them.Unfortunately, I do.Walking through familiar terminals can bring back entire chapters of my life without asking permission. People I’ve loved. Trips I’ve taken. Versions of myself that existed somewhere between departures and arrivals.Then I ate some ramen.Which sounds like an unrelated detail until you realize that ramen is also something my children love.Another memory.Another little emotional visitor.Add a long flight, fatigue, an unusual eating schedule, hunger, and a body trying to recover from the disruption of travel, and suddenly there are quite a few possible explanations for why I wasn’t feeling particularly wonderful.None of them necessarily meant something was wrong with my life.That distinction matters.I’ve become increasingly interested in the relationship between our physical condition and the stories our minds construct around our emotions.Sleep, nutrition, hormones, circadian rhythms, memories, expectations, and countless little environmental triggers can influence how we feel.But the mind doesn’t always stop to investigate those possibilities.Sometimes it simply hands us a feeling and invites us to build an entire philosophy around it.I’m sad.Why am I sad?What am I missing?What’s wrong with my life?And before long, a tired man returning from the airport has managed to turn an ordinary physiological and emotional fluctuation into an existential crisis.Quite an achievement for someone who probably just needs some rest.In this episode, I talk about a simple practice that has helped me navigate these moments.Observe. Understand. Accept.Notice what’s happening.Consider what might be contributing to it.Recognize that the feeling may be temporary.And perhaps most importantly, resist the temptation to fight every uncomfortable emotion as though it were an enemy that needs defeating.Understanding doesn’t necessarily make the feeling disappear.But it can change your relationship with it.There is something comforting about recognizing that emotions fluctuate. That the way you feel at this particular moment isn’t necessarily the way you’ll feel tomorrow, next week, or even after a good night’s sleep.A valley is not the entire landscape.It’s just where you happen to be standing.This is one of those reminders I’m recording for the version of myself who will inevitably forget it.Because I will.I’ll have another difficult afternoon. Another unexpected memory. Another moment when my body feels depleted and my mind starts writing dramatic explanations.And perhaps I’ll remember to ask a better question.Is something wrong with my life, or am I simply having a moment?Sometimes the answer may genuinely require change, attention, or help.Other times, perhaps I just need to eat something familiar, get some sleep, and allow the weather inside me to pass.Not every feeling needs to become a verdict.Some feelings simply need to be felt.Reminding Yourself is my collection of personal observations, realizations, and messages to future versions of myself. Things I want to remember before life gives me another opportunity to forget them.Part of the Multivision Network.Thanks for reading Reminding Yourself!

There Is No Winning. So Enjoy the Game.
I record these because I forget.Not necessarily facts. I forget realizations. Things that felt absolutely clear to me in one moment somehow become blurry six months later when life changes the lighting.So Reminding Yourself is partly a journal and partly a strange little attempt at immortality.I leave pieces of myself behind for whoever I become next.This one is about cards.Life deals all of us a hand. Some are extraordinary. Some are terrible. Most are probably some irritating combination of both.And we spend an enormous amount of energy arguing with the dealer.Why these cards?Why does he have better ones?Can I trade mine?Can I cheat?Can I start again?Maybe sometimes you should.But I started wondering what would happen if some of that energy went toward simply playing the hand in front of us as well as we can.That thought eventually led somewhere darker.Nobody actually wins this game.There is no immortality card hidden somewhere in the deck. No matter how much money, beauty, power, love, recognition or success someone accumulates, eventually everybody folds.At first, that sounds horribly pessimistic.If you win, you lose.If you lose, you lose.Wonderful philosophy, Keu.But then I realized there is a third option.Enjoy the game.Not because you’re guaranteed to win.Not because everything happens for a reason.Not because the universe secretly owes you a better hand after you’ve suffered enough.Enjoy it because you’re here.Play your cards.Take the risks worth taking. Fold when you need to. Learn from the hands you’ve already played. Stop staring across the table trying to calculate whether somebody else’s life is better than yours.And when you get dealt a terrible hand, remember something strangely comforting:It isn’t permanent either.Another hand will be dealt.This episode is a reminder to my future self.Maybe yours needs to hear it too.Reminding Yourself is a collection of thoughts recorded before time has the chance to make me forget why they mattered.Part of the Multivision Network.ChatGPT can make mistakes.

How I Transform Pain Into Power
Pain doesn’t feel good, but pain is necessary. It’s the GPS for survival. It’s the guidance system that tells you that you’re off course. When you make a habit of turning painful situations into powerful execution, it all starts becoming easier.The problem is that there are many distractions out there in order to hide the pain, but at the end of the day, the pain is still there. So the more you distract yourself, just like I have tried to do lots of time, the bigger the underlying problem gets.We all go through pain, which is part of the human condition. There’s not much we can do about pain, except learning how to manage it, minimize it and hopefully eradicate it. But it’s easier said than done. Pain is complex and usually it carries several components and each would need to be deconstructed and healed before the pain is completely gone.So if you’re going through pain, have gone through pain or will go through pain, when you become a pain alchemist you learn to use that uncomfortable opportunity to turn that pain into absolute power.-Keu This is a public episode.

I Wasn’t the Victim. I Was Building the Wrong Life
All my life I went from relationship to relationship trying to make something work. That is what I thought I was supposed to do. That is what I was told success looked like. And every time it failed, I looked for someone to blame. Sometimes it was me. Sometimes it was them. But the truth was deeper than that.In this entry, I reflect on something that took me years to understand. I was not just unlucky. I was not just abandoned. I was building something that was never meant for me. And I kept trying to force it to work.This episode is about that realization.It is about recognizing when you are walking in the wrong direction and having the awareness to stop. It is about understanding that pain is not random. It is shaping you. It is teaching you how to climb out of the hole you are in so that one day you can build something stronger with the same tools that once saved you.I talk about what it means to stop seeing yourself as the victim and start seeing yourself as the builder. Even when you are broken. Even when you are alone. Even when it feels like everything collapsed.There is a moment where something clicks. Where you realize that everything you went through had a purpose. Not because it felt good. But because it forced you to become someone who cannot be broken the same way again.If you are in that place right now, where nothing makes sense and the pain feels permanent, this is for you.Be patient. Keep moving. Do not rush the process. There is a version of you on the other side of this that understands everything you are going through right now.And don’t forget to Remind Yourself.If someone should check this out, share it.Thanks for reading Reminding Yourself!

When You Can’t See Your Kids
This is one of the hardest realities a man can face.Here I talk about what it feels like when you are kept away from your children. When communication is blocked. When access is controlled. When you are left trying to understand a situation that makes no sense.The kids do not understand what is happening. They do not know why you are not there. They do not know why they cannot talk to you. And the truth is, they should not have to understand. But they are the ones who carry the confusion.This is not a polished message. This is a journal entry from the middle of it.I talk about:* The emotional weight of being cut off from your kids* How the system often works against fathers* The reality of co-parenting conflict* The uncertainty that comes with not knowing what happens next* Why staying mentally strong is the only optionThere are moments where you feel like everything is out of your control. Where the situation feels unfair, confusing, and heavy. But you still have to keep going.If you are going through something similar, understand this. You are not alone. And no matter how dark it gets, you cannot allow yourself to spiral into hopelessness.Keep your mind strong. Stay present. Keep moving forward.This too will pass.And don’t forget to Remind Yourself.

Give Your Best, Not Your All
What happens when you give everything to someone and it still is not enough?In this episode of the Reminding Yourself podcast, I reflect on a difficult realization that came through years of relationships, loss, and personal breakdown. Sometimes the people who claim to love you the most can also become the people who hurt you the most.This is a journal entry about the difference between giving your best and giving your all.Giving your best means offering what you genuinely have to give. Giving your all means draining yourself to satisfy expectations that may never be satisfied. Over time, that kind of sacrifice can leave you empty, exhausted, and eventually destructive.In this conversation I talk about abandonment, the emotional damage that happens when someone leaves during your lowest moments, and how those experiences can reshape the way you see love, responsibility, and loyalty. I also reflect on how pain can turn builders into destroyers when they are pushed past their limits.This episode is not about blaming others. It is about understanding your own patterns, learning from them, and protecting your ability to keep building your life instead of burning it down.If you have ever felt abandoned, drained by relationships, or pushed to the point where you had nothing left to give, this episode is for you.Keep moving forward. Do not stall in the dark.And don’t forget to Remind Yourself.#MensMentalHealth #RelationshipLessons #EmotionalHealingForMen #PersonalGrowthForMen #BurnoutRecovery #SelfRebuilding #MasculineGrowth #LifeLessons #HealingAfterBreakup #MotivationForMen This is a public episode.

When Your Identity Falls Apart
One of the hardest experiences a man can face is losing the identity that once gave his life direction.In this episode of ReMinding Yourself, I speak openly about what happened after separation from my children and how that loss forced me to confront something deeper than heartbreak. It forced me to confront identity.For years, being a father was not just something I did. It was who I was. It shaped my mornings, my work ethic, my motivation, and my purpose. When that daily presence was suddenly removed, I froze. I could not think clearly. I could not move forward. It felt like the person I was had disappeared.This episode explores what happens when the role that defines you is taken away. What do you do when your identity collapses? How do you function when the reason you get up in the morning is no longer part of your daily life?I reflect on the painful realization that identity is not accidental. It is chosen. And if you do not choose it consciously, life will choose it for you. You become what you repeatedly attach yourself to. And when that attachment is removed, you must decide who you are again.This is not a story about victimhood. It is a reflection on responsibility. On rebuilding. On understanding that even when something sacred is taken from you, you still have the power to choose who you become next.If you are navigating separation, co parenting conflict, loss of purpose, or a major life shift, this episode will speak directly to you.This is a journal entry. A reminder. A record of how identity can die and be rebuilt.And don’t forget to Remind Yourself.Thanks for reading Reminding Yourself! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.
