The video is telling you how to not procrastinate.

[@Luppino2121]

You may not see it today, or tomorrow, but you will look back in a few years and be absolutely perplexed and awed by how every little thing added up and brought you something wonderful-or where you always wanted to be. You will be grateful that things didn’t work out the way you once wanted them to.

“If you don’t have something you GIVE yourself something!” Very wise advice, Joey. This is something you really have to learn in life.

[@ivan.guitaraaa1903]

What do you think he means by this?

[@joeyboes7771]

@@ivan.guitaraaa1903 basically if you have no goals make one, if you want a car, make a plan to save for one, also making a plan puts your mind at ease

So freaky I read this comment just as he says the line!

[@martinaee]

This video clip is actually very poignant and very good advice for basically everyone. Take this advice to heart, folks. Structuring your own life is one of the hardest things a lot of people can do because it often involves a total change of mindset.

[@allangray6764]

It's amazing how many young men needed to hear this.

[@themessedupdude]

Very true. I had the potential to be the best in every class and graduate with a good gpa. But i literally wasted my whole 4 years in highschool. I didn’t do dick I just sat in class and day dreamed. Now I have real goals but I procrastinate so much.

[@Mongoretard123]

Potential means nothing without effort.

[@themessedupdude]

[@paulies5407]

You're young man, very young. Good thing for you is that time is still on your side. Use it wisely my friend, one blink and 40 years are gone. You could lose 100 pounds in 6 months if you really tried, look how Tyson Fury went from 28 stone to 17 in the space of a year. Here's to stopping fucking around and getting our shit together, I know I sure as hell need to!

That thing Lee said about sailing through school without trying is EXACTLY my feeling. I clowned around and got As but picked up horrible ethics because of it which don't translate to the real world. Really really hurt me too, that. Completely agree

[@joeyboes7771]

Yea man it hurt me as well especially when college got tough, I went to creighton and it definitely caught up with me

[@mayomaster1134]

@multorumunumdo you not understand the point he’s making?

[@mayomaster1134]

@multorumunum I think you’re the only one seeing that. It’s not victim mentality he just recognizes that it’s a problem he has and he’s sharing it. It would be victim mentality if it read like “poor me it’s not my fault” but he literally said it was his fault for why he became this way

[@xavieredie6930]

@multorumunumwhat you said makes no sense . He is simply just stating his personal experience and relating his situation to Lee.

[@betrousaltaweel]

[@aoandd]

That's real talk Lee Syatt. When I reminisce I see stuff like that. It's crazy how you think about stuff and put it into perspective. I used to just hope to pass. I always would too. It taught me to give up early on goals but I'm smart asf.

[@aoandd]

Lee asks the best questions from the best place. It doesn't happen often, but when it does it's dope. It's corny to say this but maybe someone will see this and it will up jumps the boogie.

I have been a lazy shit the entire year so far until a few days ago. I started meditating before bed and became super motivated and productive, I am suddenly addicted to working out and don't have to force myself anymore.

[@STR8graff]

Man I can't begin to explain how much I needed this ...u know I have recently been dealing with a health diagnosis my doctor gave me that really fucking killed me man and the sad part is I'm a 7 year herion addict but have been using drugs daily since the age of 13 I am 26 now my whole life I've suffered with terrible anxiety and bipolar 1 (manic depressive disorder ) along with PTSD and insomnia and terrible night mares where I wake up in tears and sweating to yelling and swinging sometimes it really sucks but anyways what I'm getting at is I always prayed for a outcome like this. Ive over dosed 4 times flat lined twice but they brought me back ..... But anyways I recently have just been so fucking fed up with this lifestlye of constant struggle so I decisded to go to rehab but when I got there I saw a the doctor there and they informed me of my diagnosis and it really fucked me up know ...like I finally got some hope and decided to make a move to get better and I find that out ...and of course I used it as a excuse to leave and go back to using I've been so isolated and just exhuasted and sick .....but I've been threw hell and back in this life I'll be dammed if I don't attempt to reach out and help some struggling teens lost in addiction and depression I wanna share my story as much as I can before I go and even if it only helps one kid I'll be able to die happy ...thank u for the motivation to get back in the game and try to better my life u and Rogan help me out so much u guys have no idea I'm like in tears wrighting this because there have been nights where I had nothing and was sleeping on the streets but u guys kept me fucking laughing the whole time ....thank u man

[@ThrillingTwo]

God dammit, me too, Lee Syatt. I did the same thing , didn't have to study or try too hard; made As & B's. I think for sure that has held me back in my life. I find it extremely difficult to take risks and I'm scared AF to make mistakes, so I end up not making the move at all. I allowed myself to 'get by' and waste a bunch of time/energy on music when i should have pushed myself to be a better student. I left a lot on the table and wasted it then and I'm paying for it now. I f*** myself multitasking w no list, too. Thank you for this great advice, Uncle Joey Diaz & Lee Syatt.

[@marvitmia]

Joey made a strong point: We need to differentiate Productivity Vs Multi Tasking. You are Productive when you follow a list of things to do and get done, you are productive when you get things done one thing after the other. You get high, you go to the bathroom you do all your things, you go back to your bedroom where all your clothes are already laying down neatly on the bed, you get dress, you go back to the kitchen, open the Fridge get your Visine in your Eyes and then you are free to go to the PC and you do all the Multi Tasking you want !!!
