I think covid shutdown illustrated this for a lot of people like myself.

That's 100% Vsauce

I love this

👌

I think it’s funny that the one post on here i see people get behind and not immediately go “yeeeeah BUT” is also a post that gives you an excuse to do nothing.

Try tellin that to universities

And to capitalism

Too bad everyone needs to be constantly distracted.

If everyone wasn't constantly distracted, they might notice what's going on. Like the lack of quality/single-payer healthcare in America. Then people might decide to demand better laws, so that the Zuckers of the world aren't spying on our every move like creepy corporate weirdos, checking out our data from every angle.

But it's way easier to just go back on social media than to do the hard stuff.

One of my favorite songs by Shpongle is ‘Nothing is Something Worth Doing’

Thank god we have people like this to guide us in life.

Interesting that you interpreted it that way.

That’s horseshit. Tell that to the interviewer asking how come there’s a gap in the résumé.

This is rich guy talk. Completely disconnected with reality.

Move so slow you become invisible

And to the entire education system from early childhood on.

I think its interesting that the post people resonate with the most is the one you seem to be judging harshly.

And to my boss.

Bread and Circuses. We're literally playing through iterative archetypes that are thousands of years old. They just get more complex over time.

Sometimes I rhyme slow, sometimes I rhyme quick.

It is rich guy shit. I’m in my moving slow, looking inward phase only because I can afford to. My basic needs and more are met. Now I have the time to try and grow.

This is why it is important that societies basic needs are met. Once those are met we can focus on the rest of it.

Which is why those in power keep us tired, hungry, poor, jailed etc. So we can’t/don’t wake up and fight back.

Tell that to enployers

Rich guy advice holy shit.

and my beautiful AXE!

Only actual life experience teaches that.

Works everytime.

i think it just speaks to the nature of the common redditor.

this is just straight up advice and not at all motivational

Burnt out millenials with debt still living with their parents being told they arent grinding hard enough from people who inherited generational wealth? Yeah i get that.

2-day shipping and TikTok 💀

“The fastest way to get where you want to be is slowly”

💯

I’m guessing that’s commentary on me?

I’m a millennial and I inherited no generational wealth, or wealth of any kind. I grew up in a trailer and dropped out of high school, then skipped college. Then i fucked around for 5 years doing nothing. Then I found a job i liked, poured myself into it, and started my own company. It wasn’t given to me, I constantly struggle with motivation. You know what doesn’t, and never would have, motivated me? Quotes like this. The only thing I ever needed to be told was get off my ass and make something happen; but the average r/getmotivated user would describe that sentiment as…. well just look at the typical comments on any given post here.

Most people are just fucking lazy and make bad decisions. Then blame it on capitalism, boomers, etc etc.

Tell that to a sloth!

I don’t know how to slow down without feeling like a lazy pos

It actually was more a commentary on grind culture and charlatans like Gary V. if you felt attacked that wasn't my intention.

Hi, Drax👋

Front end developer here. I have a dozen gaps of more than a month, some are a year. It’s made no difference in my getting hired. The one time they asked I said I took time off to rest.

Also good advice for your golf game.

That's what recessions are for

Mine had suicide-prevention Mondays that we'd get off and homework/projects couldn't be assigned. It was every couple months though so it wasn't doing all that much, still had one of the highest suicide rates.

Cory Allen is legit! I really enjoy his content.

God bless you
