As a 14 year old, it’s a little difficult to live my life as just a normal kid. My home environment in pretty good, I have a very sweet and artist sister. It’s just that I feel like I have to worry about the future all the time. I need to focus on a test to get into I high school I like, I have to worry about getting straight A’s and perfect marks, I have to worry about my future and college. I may just be angsty instead of actually feeling worried about the future but this is how I really feel. Life just feels like it’s going way too fast and I’m forced to grow up too fast (damn pandemic, worst time of my my life. It even took my sweet dog away. Rest in Piece Twinkie). This video did cheer me up though. I should try to focus on what is in front of me or present at the moment. Thank You :]

[@probierer7184]

I'm 16, everyone around me is working hard and I feel a kind of pressure. But then I think about what is important in life. And it's not being the greatest and hardest working being, achieving the most and best things in life (even though the world and the whole economy system give you this exact feeling). What life is about is, enjoying it, being happy, having fun, things you probably wont remember that much, but things that are essential to your life. I recently had a mental breakdown, I started to regret, not using my time correctly, just playing games all the time. But I've learned 2 things. Not making experiences that you remember isn't a waste of time, because you still experienced it (you will eventually forget even the happiest of memories, so that's not a measurement for how "valuable" an experience is). And IF you feel like having wasted your time with something, maybe even years in a bad ending relationship, don't regret it, don't regret it just because it didn't end well, only learn from it, but don't regret it. It is part of your life, part of your evolution, part of the developement of your very own personality. It was not a mistake, it was an experience, every experience has good consequences. Only value experiences by looking at the present, at the time of the event, not what followed and not what you could have done differently. Allow yourself to make "mistakes", making them is not a mistake. The only real mistake I can think of right now is hurting others in the present. And with that, I am sure, viewed from that perspective, you will never ever have a bad life.

Good luck in school young one. Remember this: kids will beat you down, the teachers won’t help you, but help them. Keep your eyes forward and don’t look back at them.

High School *especially* will be rough, but keep your eyes on graduating and starting your career path, and suddenly in a couple years, you might just be passing the bullies on the street, more successful and happy than they said you would be.

I'm not saying don't try in school, but just try not to worry as much about your grades, as long as you're passing and you understand the material you're doing fine :) It's a different story in high school when it comes to how much grades matter, but honestly the workload has been so much lighter than it was in middle school, so I only hope it'll be the same for you!!

I turned 18 last month and I literally remember crying my eyes out the day before my birthday because of how I was becoming an adult and much my life was gonna change, all the time I can’t get back. I just felt defeated because I was dreading the future, I have no idea what’s gonna happen and have no control over it and I think that’s what threw me because from here my life could go in any direction. Before there was structure like: you go to primary school, then secondary, then college (I’m from the UK btw) and then after that you decide if you go to university or get a job. Then you have to think about what kinda job you want but I just have to internalise the fact that my life is what I make of it and I don’t want to be at the end of my life regretting how much time I spent dreading what was to come. So thank you so much Jack, this video really helped.

This might sound very harsh, and I don't know what your precise situation is so I might be wrong, but that sounds like borderline abuse. Please, at 12 years old your only responsibility should be writing wishes for christmas, maybe a few chores, maybe a few of your grades, but even those don't matter as much at your age. A 12 year old should not have to be a parent. Can you please try to find a responsible adult to talk about this? If your parents make you do all this when they could do it yourself, they aren't very good at their job. And maybe they're trying their best, maybe they're just offloading all of their job on you, I don't know, but what I hope is that you can find help and be a child for just a few years. Because childhood should be the easiest part of your life and not the hardest.

[@Lunar_onpawz]

[@N4S6K]

​@featherofajay4667 not tryna hate on u or anything but this doesn't seem like abuse. I had similar responsibilities when I was that age. I'm 15 now and have way more responsibilities including going to work and splitting wood to heat my house. (We use a wood burner to heat our house) So this isn't abuse it's just growing up and getting more responsibilities. Some parents baby their kids and don't give them chores and responsibilities and some parents don't baby their kids. Abuse would be if the parents pushed off the kids on the oldest kid all the time so the parents could go have fun and be irresponsible. Again I'm not trying to hate on you.

[@featherofajay4667]

@@N4S6K I didn't understand it as hating on me, don't worry. The reason why I used the word abuse in the first place was because it sounded like it might have been what you described at the end at first, before Lunar clarified. Also, because abuse is hard to recognize, especially for those with less life experience, and I was foolishly hoping that if there was any going on, my words may help them realize. And I don't think that some responsibility is bad, what's bad is when a literal child has less than an hour at a time for themselves (or no set time that they know they won't be bothered) because they always have to take care of something or someone. Or if they always have to expect to be woken up in the night and having to deal with something. I believe that that causes issues that I wouldn't wish on anyone.

So many fantastic memories, moments of bravery, a good time in school and at home, amazing parents, a great environment for growth and play and openness and togetherness. I have a great relationship with my parents today and I look very fondly on my childhood. My life feels really stagnant right now like I'm sorta in limbo; but I have nothing but hope for the future, respect and gratitude for the past, and love and appreciation for the present. I do my best to live even the most mundane, boring moments of my present as happily and mindfully as I can, and I feel very content as a result. Beautiful message my dude, happy belated birthday, and best luck to every kid and grown up out there 🙌✌ Best piece of advice I can give to anyone is to care a little less about the things that don't really matter, and care a little more about the things that do. Pay attention to the things that make you feel good---inside and out---whether it be of the 'play' or 'work' caliber, and seek those things out more than anything. And as always, practice healthy balance in your life. Too much play and too much work can both be harmful in their own ways. That's my time...😂😂

This is so important to me I've had issues for ages with having my head in the clouds and living more in my mind than in reality. Recently I've tried living more in the moment, feeling things as the come, paying attention to what's happening around me and the people I meet. And I've noticed I've been happier than I've ever been. Of course I could never truly let go of those ideas and stories that bounce around in my brain, but they have a time and place now. And while they still often dominate my mind, I've been trying to notice when I slip into a daydream and try and pull myself out of it. It doesn't always work, often those daydreams - no matter how disconnected from the world and angsty they are - are far more appealing than living anxious of everything. But being able to actually Live is something I want to do. I barely remember anything about my childhood, and part of that is because I live in my head (also because I have a really bad memory, but I digress). I want to make more memories and have more experiences, and that means living in the moment. It's tough, but I'm making progress :D

Sometimes I have suicidal thoughts and sometimes I am scared of my family finding out some truths and secrets of me. I am only 12 years old and in 6th grade. I am trying to live my life with my best friends, one of my best friends is trying to commit suicide but is stopped by her mother, sometimes I think of how my life would be if I lost her(My best friend). Sometimes I think of how much fun I had when I was younger, ever since I was born and made my first memories til 5th grade, but now when I started 6th grade I realise how hard life is when you go to school, have tests and have a religion at the same time and barely have any freetime anymore and when my family found out that I listen to songs that I am not allowed to watch I almost had a panic attack and now I am scared that my family will find out the truth and secrets about me.

[@lazitazi5645]

Hello, I’d like to say that this got me thinking too, as someone who’s about to be 19. I think I started thinking outside the present moment in elementary school 4th grade, when the situational and social awareness started to kick in. I’d remember how terrible I was younger, I’d remember how badly I acted, I’d remember how I didn’t have any friends because I couldn’t speak our national tongue and I didn’t like things that everybody else liked. That’s when I started to attempt fitting in, that’s when I started wondering “what am I gonna be like in Highschool?” Every year, I always remember looking back thinking “what will I be like in Highschool?” When I got to Highschool, it turned into “what will I be like in college?” I remember just being hyper focused on not seeing the future. I remember thinking “I have to do this or that if I want a good life,” or “if I don’t wanna be alone in the end I gotta do this and that” I ended up giving up. I told myself I’d be gone 10,, 20 years from now so it wasn’t like it mattered. I got so stressed over doing nothing and everything at the same time. And now I’m kind of alone. Okay Not really, but old friends I used to see as family don’t see me as family anymore. Good thing is, though, I’m learning to get out of the dark headspace and I have new friends. I’m slowly trying to get back what I lost, and just live as a teenager going into young adulthood. I can’t get back my childhood, but maybe I can still enjoy my youth. Wisely, of course. I dunno usually these type of videos kickstart my depression and I stop watching 2-3 minutes in but I felt pretty safe watching this one. It was nice. Comforting . Thank you

ik this vid was targeted towards those under 18 but as someone who's 19 turning 20 years old this year, I really needed to hear this, 15-17 year old me needed to hear this... I have a lot of traumatic memories from both my childhood and teen years, so I am quite disturbed by my past, so much so it's significantly interfered with my ability to grow and love myself. For so long I didn't have any hope in the future, or MY future. Hell, I honestly never thought I'd make it to today. But now, for the first time in years, I'm actually beginning to look forward to what the future has in store for me. I think hitting my 20's this year will be very symbolic of leaving the pain of my teenage years behind. Thank you for giving me more insight.

As someone in this age range, what he says is honestly true, I myself was lucky to have realized this early on in life and there are many times where I’d think before I’d go to sleep, “Would I be fine with life if I were to die today?” Because the truth is, something really could happen tomorrow that’d cause me to die, And if I felt like I wouldn’t necessarily be happy about where I was I would try to do something the next day that I knew I would be proud of and its a lifestyle that really works for me, It’s taught me why and how not to regret things Ive done no matter if they were embarrassing or what not.

To everyone here who is currently struggling, not feeling too well or just needs some motivation in their life: I want you all to know, that you are so strong, and all feelings are totally valid. And all of your scars, mentally or physically represent all tears you have shed those nights. The trauma you have went through is not your fault and will never be, no one deserves to be abused, bullied, sexually assaulted or anything else on the list. Even if you had a bad day or lashed out you do not deserve to be hurt, no matter mentally, physically, emotionally, verbally or sexually. Even though it might not feel like it, life is worth living, right now it might feel like there is no one who supports you, or you have hit rock bottom and don’t know how it could improve. Most of you here, are also still children or teenager you have so much time left. And there will be a point in your life, where you will be thankful for still being there. If you think you have no reason left to live anymore, let me be your reason. Life is a long road, but hope drives us forward. -from a 12 year old who thinks you are so significantly important.

As a 17 y.o. boy, I came with similar conclusions after reading legendary book of Leo Tolstoy "War and Peace" (I'm russian, and in school it's necessary to read this, even though many people don't do it because of size of book). Ending just got me rethinking my entire life. (Next sentences may contain spoilers to the book). The entire novel one of the main characters (Pierre Bezuhov) tried to find the sense in his life, he became mason only for it, but still wasting his life thinking too much about everything. But after he captured by the Napoleon army and getting out of captivity, he came out as the different person, who started to VALUE his life as it is. Really beautiful (partly philosophical) book that can change your mind.

I'm 17 and a couple months away to become 18, and I've already been worrying and overthinking about how's life gonna be after this day. And also been wondering why that age is the age you should learn and acknowledge that you're about to face a vital moment of your life, so you already gotta be prepared, and there will be even more challenges and obstacles that you'll have to face off. It's been a while and with all these teenage hormones bouncing around endlessly I had to control myself, so I decided to start doing some activities to anticipate some steps, like looking for a job, having responsibilities, managing my schedules(which I don't find to be doing so well), and just got along. Yet I don't feel like I'm a 100% prepared for what's about to come. Right now I've been scrolling down youtube and happened to find this video. It dragged my attention, and so I thought: "Damn, what a coincidence! Just cause I'm about to turn 18.". I clicked on it and watched. I gotta say, thank you for the advice, like really... It was wise to talk about playing in your play times and working on your work times without mixing them together, and also making up memories and keeping them as something important for you while you're still breathing and still having your friends and family close to you. And there should be people that will watch this and just be like: "Meh, I don't care, this all just goes in vain. I know what to do already." but not me, I will remember this and say: "Damn, Jak was right. I'm sure I wouldn't be the same without appreciating the little moments I've got so far." So thank you once again, Jak.

I’m 13, I ride horses, those and my pets are probably some of the most memorable things I’ll ever have or do. I lost my horse when I was 9. But I took her for granted, I didn’t have her for more than a year. When I was 12 1/2 my dog passed away, I had her for almost my whole life, as long as I can remember she was there, now she’s not. I took her for granted and I hate that. Nobody ever actually respects or loves something 100% till something happens, till it hurts to think about, till it’s numb to think about. We kind of knew my horse would pass because she had an injury, but my dog was sudden. I was at school, then around 1:00pm my mom came to pick me up, to tell me my dog died. I couldn’t go to school the next day, when I think of her I notice that I’ll never feel her breath again, I’ll never feel her fur again, she’ll never touch me again, and it just hurts. I remember the morning she passed, I was about to be late to school and we couldn’t put her away, so we left her and our other dog outside because they wouldn’t come in, and I remember just thinking “dumb dog” as a joke, now I just regret and wish I could time travel back to that moment, and not think that. It’s crazy how much we take for granted.

[@SophiaWelch-l7v]

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is s mystery, but today is a gift. That is why its called the present. Regretting will get you nowhere because you can't change the past. But you can change the present. You can use what you've learned from your past to improve the present. You might always see what you did then as wrong or bad, but that shouldn't stop you from trying in the present.

Another book I read years ago called Daphne’s book ahead a light on how you can never tell what someone is going through until you ask how you would react in their shoes. No matter the cost, live in life. But don’t waste it only playing thrive below and die knowing you have changed a life. That is my goal to save as many lives as I can and be the light of hope to those writhing in the dark. As my name means; I will always be there to be the light of hope and to warm the frozen hearts first I must burn in the beautiful flames so the others may see. Do not writhe alone find your light.

4:11 when i heard this, i thought: there may not be a tomorrow. there are so many ways to die, disease, car crashes, murder, suicide, etc. there may not be a tomorrow because you could die any moment. you could randomly get bombed in 2 minutes, you could discover you have an incurable life-threatening disease. i dont normally say these things, but now that i am i want to really cherish every moment which i know is impossible. but it never hurts to try.

I'm a 16 year-old girl with very bad anxiety (17 in Nov), causing me to overthink everything. I'm afraid of a lot, too. One of those things is the future. Where I live, I don't have any friends to go out with or have fun, so I spend my days in my room, peacefully trying to find motivation to do what I like. My hobbies. The thing I'm afraid of most is the future. Ever since I was 13, I've had my mind set on my future. I never went out with my friends to town because my mum didn't think it was safe and didn't trust me as she was convinced I had no road sense. But that doesn't bother me too much anymore. What does is the future. My future is something I always worry about. I want to get good grades on my GCSE Exams, get into and finish College with good grades, go onto a really great university, and get the job of my dreams. Pretty ambitious. Except I'm a girl with zero skills/talents who's that incompetent she still doesn't know how to use basic household appliances except for the Microwave and Toaster since nobody ever taught me. My family just expects me to pick it up from not watching them use said appliances because we're not allowed in the kitchen when my mum is cooking, which is where everything is and coincidentally the only time an oven/deep fryer is on. Struggling with wanting to complete my goals and at the least be somewhat competent is bad, but when I realise what it'll be like moving out, living by myself, I'm petrified. My childhood may as well have stopped at 13. And now, with all these worries and thinking of the future, It hurts knowing that at this rate, I'll never get anywhere.

I May be over 18 but this is really inspirational definitely changed me to a better person after I watched!

Thank you for giving me a lot of newfound inspiration this year Jak. May God bless you and your channel, and I will be back for the next video! ❤

Thank you my man, god bless you back ❤️

It's important to study as a kid as that's making your own future, but we should never forget to also take a break. Of course, it's not as important as education, but we cannot go too far in any of these ways. If you learn too much, you'll be tired of it. If you play too much, you'll be tired with it. Keep the balance and enjoy your life - You have only one

I'm 11 now. Spent the last 3 years worrying and worrying.. thank you for this video.

[@benjaminA.stantonpun]

Living in and for the present day is not something I ever really learned to do until I turned 24. Aside from growth spurts, I hated my youth. But, your advice is awesome anyway and can apply to me now. Thanks.

[@logenmadrid4441]

I just turned 18 not too long ago as well man, and I’m glad that I’m able to relate to this 💯. Probably one of the weirdest things, for me at least, is that when it was my last day of being 17, I didn’t know how I was gonna feel the next day, and then I woke up 18. And honestly man, all I can say is that for me, it just felt like any other day, but at the same time it feel weird because like you mentioned, all of the memories just came back and I told myself “damn, my childhood has now come to an end.” Thx for this video bro, I appreciate what you’re doing in trying help our generation improve, it means so much 💯👍🏼💪🏼

[@JakPiggott]

Yeah bro I had the exact same experience for you. If felt normal until I decided to go to bed that night. But nah in all honesty I’m glad I had that experience, it’s a great reminder to always live in the moment ❤️

As a 12 year old, this video has given me a new perspective on life. Primary school has been the worst experience of my life and I’m moving into high school in just 1 month and I’m obviously pretty stressed about it because my only experience with a school has been bullying, physically injured and absolutely no consequences happened to the people who did it. I’m unhealthy, I game all day, I have zero friends and I’ve just told my self that it’s too late to fix that. But this video has inspired me to actually start trying at life and switch things around. Thank you.

[@adzylin2010]

bullying sucks, and i know how painfull it can be. I had trouble making friends and i still do. I know its hard to start talking to people when you've been subjected to bullying, but as soon as you've found the right people it will all feel worth it.

[@pixie5853]

Hey dude, I know how you feel. Just know, high school has WORLDS better than the rest of my life. The freedom is incredible. I used to spend all of my time gaming and my only friends were online, even then they were few and far between. It is not too late to change any of that. I found my calling in band and music, with a community that understood me and gave me many friends that I consider family. For the bullying situation, I know depending on your school the admin can be absolutely awful about it, and unfortunately I don't really know a solution to that. All I can say is, a lot of people go through a lot of change in high school, and that will probably include your bullies. If nothing else, you'll have a lot more freedom of class choice and where you can go and when. Whether that's staying in a public area if that deters them, or finding a quiet place (like an empty classroom with a teacher you trust) to hide it out. But it's not too late to change. I'm 15, I've gone through the most amount of change I've ever had in the last year. You're only 12 dude, you're young, you have so much childhood and life left in front of you. If you can't find friends in real life, you can look online too. You'd be surprised how many incredible people you can find amongst the mess that the internet is. My best friend is an online friend who I met over 5 years ago, at the lowest point in my life. You got this dude, I believe in you, it's never too late. I love you man, hang in there
