What happens here

This video is primarily a motivational speech by Josh from Stoney Ridge Farmer, where he addresses a viewer's comment about luck and the inability to own land. He shares personal anecdotes of overcoming poverty through hard work, education, and strategic thinking, interspersed with various clips of farm activities such as mowing, excavation, animal care, well plumbing, and fence building. The core message emphasizes personal responsibility, positive mindset, and continuous self-improvement as keys to achieving success and acquiring assets like land, rather than blaming external circumstances or resenting others' achievements. The video explicitly does not contain instructions on soil sample collection with the trowel method.

don't resent people for Success study them study what they're doing study them baby squash is the best squash ever hey there folks this is Josh Stony Ridge farmer welcome back to another gorgeous day here on the Stony Ridge Farm we're standing out here by the outdoor kitchen overlooking the beautiful farm that we have here and I had a comment that I wanted to go over with you guys because for some reason people think that this is unachievable for them and I want to inspire you today today's video is basically supposed to be inspirational I hope you guys enjoy this we're just going to talk about this comment about somebody saying aren't you so lucky to be born into this life most of us Poes even those of us who got into middle class don't own land and I'm here to tell you this ain't no Miracle okay so we're going to get right into the meat and potatoes about this I'm want to read this comment to you guys and I've got several comments about from people talking themselves down and talking themselves out of being able to do this being able to build that being able to build a farm being able to buy land and start their own thing and the reality is guys it's not unachievable for anybody I lived in the trailer park okay I know what it's like I have been dirt dirt dirt poor so poor that I couldn't even go buy toilet paper I've been that poor guys and this is not unachievable so I'm going to read the comment to you and I want you guys to definitely give me some feedback and tell me what you think and we're going to go through a little bit of financials here on the Stony Ridge Farm we're going to talk about how I found this place and and why it happened the way it did and it was some luck and hard work and perseverance I mean hard work and perseverance has always worked it just has hard work perseverance growing as a person learning and building new things and Building Things in your mind it's all hard work and perseverance so this person basically told me and this person's name is Shan uh evidently it says aren't you so lucky you were born into a life that made you able to own land we're going to analyze this entire comment I was born into a life that made me able to own land I was born in a country where I could buy land and I'm pretty sure in most countries you can go buy land or cities or states or wherever it is that you live I'm sure in America and Canada and and Australia and the UK France everywhere I guess you can buy land I don't know you tell me if there's somewhere that you know that's not that's a non third world country that you can't go buy land I think you can buy land pretty much anywhere but this person says that you're so lucky you were born into a life that made you able to own land my brother I was born just like you not any other way no Silver Spoon no Silver Spoon I wasn't born that way this isn't family land this is land that I bought in my 30s this is not unachievable by any means Sean next thing we know Sean is feeling sorry for himself and I'm going to read my reply to his comment too because this is he was basically putting himself down when you put yourself into a category that is lesser than other people then you automatically fail yourself you fail as a human being by putting yourself beneath other human beings in my eyes we're all equal I don't care if you're Donald Trump Elon Musk or Nancy Pelosi we are all equal in my mind it's the way that you behave and the way you think of things and the way you think of yourself that makes you either successful or a jerk uh or an elitist or a poor person I don't see myself as a poor person and I've always worked hard and I have had less means I never saw myself as a poor person even when I only made $300 a month and I lived in the trailer park I lived in a Trailer Park in Utah and basically my bills were about $350 a month and I paid my bills and I barely scraped by but what was I doing I was improving myself I had a trade I was an electrician and I was going back back to school going back to go to medical school actually I set my mind to something and that's what anybody does that's successful they set their mind to something and they do it now if they've had generational wealth to help them along that path that's fantastic but often times when people have generational wealth and please weigh in on this you guys have seen those spoiled kids right that generational wealth those trust fund babies that are getting that that money that that's theirs that they earn just by being alive it doesn't do them any favors does it it never does them any favors okay nobody did me any favors like that if you think hard and persevere and work hard it pays and that's what I want Sean to know here okay so let's go back to Sean's comment most of us pors even those of us that got into middle class don't own land everybody that I know that owns land around here are all pretty much middle class people they're not rich people by far they're all pretty much middle class people I do have some wealthy friends and I do choose to surround myself with people now get this and this might be a crazy concept to you guys and this you might need to show this to your kids too I tend to surround myself with people whom I admire and are successful not losers this is meant to say you are what you eat the people you hang around with are your Company the company you keep defines you as a person so surround yourself with intelligent and successful people and if your friends that you have right now are not intelligent and successful sit with them the next time you're sitting with them having a cold beer out here on the porch whatever you're thinking in your head is this guy an idiot is this the kind of person that I want to be am I being perceived like that person is this guy smart is this guy successful guy gal whatever you've got to think about that you are what you eat Sean and that's that's something that a lot of people don't understand you hang out with losers you are in the loser crowd poor is not it's a state of mind poor is a state of mind again I couldn't afford toilet paper I lived in a 1976 mobile home that was by the freeway in Utah fresh out of the Air Force I signed up for the military I am blessed and lucky in some ways to have my health I am very blessed and very lucky and everyone who has their health and not having a disability very very blessed however if you cause your own disability meaning if you didn't have enough ambition to get up off the couch and go exercise you need to do that surround yourself with successful people and do successful things right okay okay we're we're getting off tangent here so not saying stop producing videos that's his next statement after don't own land lucky you this still educ Ates people who might be able to use the info once civilization collapses what this fell is doing and I studied up on this guys I read self-help books all the time I listen to podcasts all the time and what this guy is doing is fear it is rainning fear upon this gentleman okay fear is raining down upon him because he's poor quote unquote and he can't get out of where he's at because he's poor and he doesn't have anything and he thinks that somehow you have to be some there's there's some magic fairy that comes and lays eggs on you and that's how you accumulate things that's how you build a farm that's how you do it it starts with a dream brother okay it starts with a dream I'm going to go into the to the grand finale here in a second but for most of us that's what we're waiting for so he's basically is telling me that he's waiting he's his mind has set himself to be poor first thing you got to do is get out of that mindset that is not a mindset for success that's not a mindset that builds that that's not a mindset that raises cows or raises chickens or builds a house or that's not a mindset that grows a garden you can't feel sorry for yourself you can't Sean you can't and I'm sorry I hope hopefully this message gets to you Sean I and gets to everyone else this is not unachievable I am a registered nurse I worked my butt off I made smart purchases I started my first business when I was 22 21 years old I was 21 years old was called Mr Fixit handyman services I was always blessed to be able to do things with my hands I took that and I went back to college and I got my degree whether it's college or trade school and let me tell you guys we need trades we need electricians we need plumbers we need heating and air guys we need roofers we need these people Carpenters concrete workers we need these people in this country so college is for some people and college ain't for other people I applied to unversal Technical Institute to become a diesel mechanic in high school I wanted to work on cars hot rides engines and I'm going to bring in some more car content here on the Stony Ridge Farm Channel but you've got to get yourself out of the mindset of being pre-programmed to be poor you aren't poor unless you think you're poor you're not broken unless you think you're broken and I think a lot of folks are sad and depressed and feel like they're hung in a rut that they can't can't get out of and let me tell you where that rut comes from Forever middle class forever not generating building generational wealth I don't have any children right now I want children someday I don't have any children right now I don't know who I'm going to pass my farm down to or who I'm going to pass my land down to I may make it a park I may donate it and give it to to the uh local University a program I don't know what I'm going to do with it but if you surround yourself with success don't think of yourself as beneath another person think of yourself as a successful enjoyable happy person get yourself out of that Sean and here is what my reply was and maybe it was a little bit snippy I don't know but I'm going to read my reply to you guys and you tell me what you think my friend I climbed out of the trailer park and this is what I do now no better than any other hardworking man or woman and I think that that Rings true and that should ring true with everybody that's watching this you are no better or no worse than any other man or woman okay nobody work hard follow your dreams plan be sharp surround yourself with success and that will help you it will surrounding myself with success this is how I found my farm I was a registered nurse the gentleman I bought this farm from was one of my patients he since passed away his name was Clyde what a wonderful man the man changed my entire life and all I had to do was ask the right question and I asked him do you know anybody selling any land up that way where you live cuz my parents live right over that hill right there 15 minutes away he said yeah me and that's how I found it it didn't fall in my lap but it kind of did was it luck or was it drive that got me there so anyway back to my response I don't think any hardworking man or woman deserves to be put down by someone whose presumptuous insults guide his or her way of thinking to the point of being perpetually unsuccessful and what does that mean to you it means that someone who hard harboring hatred and resentment and hurt for those who are more successful from than they are will never ever generate success don't put yourself down because when you put other people down for being successful all you're doing is making yourself look unsuccessful it if Donald Trump is richer than me it ain't my fault and I don't hold it against him if if Elon Musk is has more money than me it ain't my fault and I don't hold it against him taking another success and holding that against them because they worked hard presuming that they've had it all handed to them is the wrong thing to do it's just the wrong thing to do Sean right here that's what we're talking about uh here's what I said surround yourself with success develop your work ethic and for goodness sake don't feel sorry for yourself I'm a perfect example of pulling yourself out of poverty with determination poverty poverty guys I made less than $122,000 a year I pulled myself out of poverty and now I'm building something wonderful to share with everyone you don't speak for most of the US and he did say the most of the US is waiting for the world to collapse and I'm not waiting for the sky to fall I don't watch the mainstream media I don't think that the sky is constantly falling I don't care about every little political mood that everybody makes and we can't live like that our bodies our minds are not made to live in constant fear and stress and that is why Mr Shawn here is a product of that environment and the product of that environment is constant fear the the big man's trying to take me down and the big man's not trying to take you down okay constant fear you guys post comments I know comments are firing away right now the elitist run this country uh what is it uh Bill Gates is buying all this land so he can feed us fake meat don't eat it if you don't eat it how's it going to feed it to you right we only have we can digest what they feed to us the information that they give to us we can digest that information any way we see fit but if we digest it with fear we will never ever pull ourselves out of whatever situation it is we want to be in we want to be successful you want to own a beach house you want to have a nice car you want to have a nice truck you want to uh have a farm a big beautiful Farm you'll never pull yourself out out of it by feeling sorry for yourself and thinking that the sky is constantly falling turn that stinking TV off turn off your Fox News turn off your CNN turn off the MSNBC and turn on something wholesome that you can learn from and grow learn how to grow squash learn how to grow tomatoes learn how to grow a garden this stuff is fulfilling guys when my mind is on watering these plants right here it ain't on anything else I'm out here and I'm watering my grass I've got to go feed my cows when my mind is there it's not on anything else this news media crap is destroying our country that's all I'm going to say about that that's that's as far as I'm divulging or digging into politics here's what I said you don't speak for most of us my friend and you're poor in quotations is something that you decide that you want to be nobody makes you poor but you nobody makes you poor but you and it's a mindset surround yourself with success work hard plan watch videos watch podcast on Building Wealth watch podcast on how to buy land watch podcast on how to build fences or or YouTube videos on how to build we live in a world of so much information that there's no reason to sit around feeling sorry for yourself here's what I said nobody makes you pour climb out of that label and surround yourself with success my brother do that and the last thing that I want to end this video with with you guys please take this message and pass it on to your kids your grandkids your aunts your uncles or anybody else that you see that's Jibber jabbering about how Billy Bob down the street got all them nice blah blah blah Billy Bob's probably buried up to his eyeballs in debt right and they resent someone for that don't resent people for Success study them study what they're doing study them them study what they're doing surround yourself with successful people now they might be successful idiots those are fun right but they're not going to be your best friends surround yourself with successful smart people with good work ethic and you will morph into the person that you want to be I'll end this video with this this is a quote from DH Lawrence I never saw a Wild Thing feel sorry for itself a small bird will drop Frozen dead from a bow without ever having felt sorry for itself Sean I hope you understand I hope you guys understand there's a recipe for success
