It’s ok to feel hopeless and helpless :)

If anyone has any vids or songs you like to revisit when you’re down which makes you happy or motivated or even loved/heard/appreciated post them ITT please

OP hopeless relying on another man's word for motivation

YouTube videos aren't gonna put food on ur table and support your family, etc

Harsh reality of it all is that comes down to the individual and willingness to overcome obstacles

If u don't do it someone else will and they will do better than u

It's a competition out here and u either a b**** or u working

You’re right and wrong

There’s nothing wrong with people getting motivation from others

It is up to the person to get going on what they need to do, though

External & internal locus of control

ur right

it depends on the persons ability to use this motivation to perform

as opposed to consuming it just to feel good about urself

depending on oneself is just a personal preference of mine based on pride

knowing that u have the chance to do/not something and eventually reaping the rewards from it or just twiddling ur thumbs like an idiot is what motivates me

Absolutely correct bro

bro don't rope james blake into this s***
