So today I wanted to talk to you about a something that's actually very, very interesting and very funny how the exact same word, the same concept can have a whole different meaning, depending on how you look at life. So I'm talking about a sentence. So depending on how you look at things, it can be a blessing and it can be a curse. It can actually ruin your morale and your determination and everything.

I have a bunch of friends who basically feel like, you know whatever they do is never going to be enough because, you know, people just don't care about them and stuff. And it basically ruins all their dreams of stuff. You know, it's like, well, yeah, but why would I ever do this? Nobody gives a crap anyway, so, you know, why would you ever do it? Don't do it.

Okay, so that's an excuse that I hear a lot. If you think this way and you don't try anything because you just assume that nobody gives a damn, and then you're never actually going to get anywhere. But if your desire is stronger, then what other people think, and anything else, you'll just go out and do it. And it may be very harsh. Nobody said it's easy.

And there is this guy, Eric Thomas. There is this motivational video where he says, “If you want to be successful as much as you want to breathe, then this is when you're going to be successful”. And I was like, dude, this is extreme! But when you think about it, it makes sense.

Okay, so don't go to the extremes of like you're suffocating and you want to breathe. But this is a thing, you know, if there is something you really want. OK. Like it's as important to you as the fact of breathing, you will actually find the motivation and the strength to go out and do it.

You need to have a motivation that's higher and that's way more important than anything else. And if you're trying to do something and you just can't and you're just making excuses, it means that you don't want it as bad as you think you do.

So that's one solution that I will give to all the people who see life this way. So there are two angles, right? You have the man. Nobody gives a damn. Why would I do it? So that's the first angle. But me. I'm on the other side. I'm on the completely the opposite. Don't be preoccupied or fixated on what other people think. People don't care. Just do your stuff.

If you're introverted and if you're like very shy or something and you're listening to this, I really want you guys to understand something, because when you're in a state of mind, you think that there is no way out. And that that's the feeling I had when I was younger.  Trust me, there is a way out.

You just have to realize this, because very often, you know, the mental block is this. You think that people are analysing everything under a microscope. Everything you do every time you try to move a muscle, you're like, oh, man, everybody's looking at me. Nobody's looking. Nobody cares, man.

And that's the good thing. All right. So this is how I approach life now. I do my thing and nobody cares. And if you look at life this way, it makes it a lot easier. There is a lot less pressure.
