CBum says babies are like most people

Reflecting on his week into fatherhood, Bumstead shared a nugget of truth that resonated deeply: “A lot can happen in a week… It’s only been 8 days, but being around a baby I’ve realized that they’re just like most people and really don’t think much at all.”

This revelation struck a chord with many, as he likened the innocence of a newborn to that of most people, emphasizing the simplicity of their thoughts and actions. His advice? When faced with conflicts or grievances, remember that sometimes, people are just like babies—unaware and unaffected.

CBum is on the pathway of embracing life and channelizing his emotions

In a video shared by RAW Nutrition, the 29-year-old confessed his true emotions while reminiscing about his first Olympia win in 2019. Winning his first Olympia title didn’t bring the joy he expected. He said, “I didn’t feel the joy that I thought I might have from accomplishing this goal I worked so hard to achieve.” Instead of pure happiness, he felt relieved. This made him realize, “If you numb the bad, you numb the good.”

Throughout his journey, Bumstead learned to accept both the ups and downs of life. Winning gave him the confidence to handle all emotions, good and bad. He even redefined success, saying, “Champions make their own rules and they have their own definitions of success.” According to CBum, success means being the best version of yourself in all aspects.
