Dog instinctLife isn’t about achieving goals
If it was you wouldn’t see ppl falling into depression after accomplishing their dreams or it not being enough & for them looking for the next thing
Do stuff U love & are passionate about, but achievement is not what it seems
Your goal should be something you love and are passionate about lol. I’m not saying don’t do fun things but you gotta have some level of discipline towards things that really matter to you. Do you seriously think a kid that spends all day playing video games and masturbating looks back at it fondly?

I love how out of touch rappers be man lol.

eh is that your goal or is that capitalism goals?
If we really wanna be real about it
The whole "monetize your passions" thing is a quite depressing outlook on art if you think about it.

nogoodmyleslife’s also too short to be constantly in grind or i gotta get it mode. niggas is literal kids, save all that grinding and stressing for ya 20’s. agree with his message overall tho.
Nigga I literally said all it takes is an hour a day. Is that asking too much? Lol. Yet these kids rather grind on these video games for 5+ hours. A virtual fake reality. If you don’t see something wrong with that… idk bro

Only cringe is that his energy is a lil too high for a bunch of teens who we know damn well ain’t trynna hear the truth, but everything he said is true.
Steam will tell you the time you spent in every game, imagine all those hours invested in learning a skill.
Ngl I’m also guilty of this tho

space faceYeah the message should be take an hour a day and dedicate it to achieving a goal but still have your fun otherwise. Not essentially “if y’all good at video games, you going to grow up to be a broke ass loser”
He ain’t saying don’t play video games. Tory literally says he still plays games in this same video. He’s saying to take some time out of your day to be productive. If you can grind for hours on a video game and get good at it. Imagine how good you could get at something you’re truly passionate about in real life

No kid looks at their “hours played” and says “yeah, this is great” Aint nothing wrong playing with your friends but spending all your time on games, and no time on your goals that you really care about? You gon look back like dam I wish I worked on this s*** more

I think its less about money and more about taking your future seriously in any goal or ambition you have. you won't get anywhere in life if you spend more time having fun then building up your skill in whatever job or profession you want to have in the future. If that's gaming for some people then great. but the majority of ppl playing video games just use it as a form of escapism. because they don't enjoy the life that they live. its easier to sink into the virtual world than take the actions needed to improve your life in a real way

Ironic considering a RAPPER (another subgroup) saying this.
Man, I wish every rapper could have the amount of money they really have over they head. Cause a lot of yall think rappers are really eating lol.

What it'll comedown to is your lifestyle, because removing gaming is "a" step. But what do you replace that time with AND... What other things are you doing that is equally as bad?
It's gonna lead back to your lifestyle, games are a pleasant distraction BUT...it is a distraction. So is literally the majority of things...

you got stats for that?
A lot of people use many things for escapism. 1 in 12 men and 1 in 25 women got alcohol abuse problems. Why we not talkin bout that form of escapism. Especially when that s*** can kill you (or others)

we all are. and Tory himself admitted he was playing 2k in 06 and still does, he's really not even attacking gamers. but the principle of what he says is factual
