One of my professors in college (this particular class met once a week) would have us close our eyes and do some motivational talk and trying to get us to forget about everything that’s going on outside the class. One of the things, I remember, every week she would say something about noticing your feet on the ground and just being attached to the earth. And honestly, that shit helped me get into the rhythm of the class and just be grounded and mentally prepped.

Motivational speakers are a lot like fake psychics in that they say incredibly generic things but their audience is going to interpret those generic sayings to apply to their specific situation without even realizing it so they will attribute wisdom or knowledge to the psychic or speaker. It's a natural human instinct to relate to other humans and relate what other humans are saying to our situation. It's a basic part of human empathy. Unfortunately con artists know this and they use it to manipulate people. Which is why so many people believe in horoscopes and those psychics that claim to speak to your dead relatives and motivational speakers apparently.

However, a lot of people in my position CANNOT AFFORD THERAPY, and live in shitty countries where seeking help for mental problems is a huge stigma. I'm a minor, and am trapped in a abusive household and have no money. Lots of kids out there like me. Worst thing is that this is normal in my country. Services for child protection won't do shit.

I know this was only 1 therapist and doesn't reflect on all the others, but lmao my mom ain't taking me to another one since she got the paper for the dog. Also, saying that you shouldn't rely on friends or family is only your personal belief. My friends have been what are keeping me floating and alive. I understand than friends are not professionals and they are not equipped to help with your emotional baggage, but that isn't what it is about.

@appearsred3 жыл бұрын
@@ChezzaOuttaNowhere such people are just very insecure due to failing to achieve what they desire, as well as feeling lonely and not appreciated/recognised by people. They get so desperate to get the attention they're unable to get with their set of skills that it makes them jealous someone can actually have it (even when it's mere courtesy) - it's similar to how misogynists always focus on how "men are expected to open doors/carry things" whenever there's an argument about women's rights, as if it's relevant and the "extra niceties" they bring up are at all comparable to the issues discussed. Similarly, they will find any excuse to think to themselves that when someone else has what they want it is undeserved, and must be due to (for example) disability, since everyone is "too nice" - they can't face the fact that they're just not good enough. They almost wish they were in the same situation as they know they wouldn't get the "attention" otherwise, convincing themselves that even mere courtesy is some kind of special treatment (that they crave but can't have), therefore demonising it and staying ignorant to all the issues that come with disabilities. It all stems from hurt egos that are too fragile to face reality, and it's honestly pathetic.

@Alice Kae Well for one thing, they arent "Alphas" at all. They try to project it in a "fake it till you make it" kind of way. But you will find many men who arent speakers also try to enforce that ideal of manhood in their own lives. I'm sure you noticed that the actual likely response of the audience is that they become less confident right? They are protecting a very narrow version of what masculinity is, and can be. I think fear is likely at the root of it. Fear of having lived their lives "wrong", or resentment that maybe this new generations will be able to follow their own true personalities when it hadn't felt like an option before, or fear of realizing that their actions throughout life weren't 100% their own, that propaganda played into it, society did, that they arent the only influence over their own lives that they thought they were. Etc etc. Plenty of reasons, even if they are still hurtful.

I hate the passive aggressive behavior teachers sometimes have. I had an AP English teacher look me dead in the eye on the first day of my freshman high school class and say, “I’m the kind of person who if I don’t like you, I won’t even talk to you.” … … … And those were the only words he ever spoke to me. I’m now 37 years old and this still hits me like it was yesterday.

I would think a motivational speaker would be in a crowd of a stand up act, and when the comic fails, the motivational speaker starts to motivate him. Everyone else will be like, 'wow, what a good motivation, I think I'll pay $300 to hear him motivate me.' Bam, that's how you start your motivational speaker career.

Unironically the most moving motivational speech I ever heard came from my elementary school janitor who was allowed to talk at an assembly one day because everyone loved him so much. I still think about his story two decades later and how he pulled himself from addiction. I don't think that's the answer you wanted though.

This is what I think of when I think of motivational speakers! Someone who overcame an addiction or a bad childhood, someone who has a disability and learned to adapt and teaches others to do the same. Not whatever tf this crap is.
@starflurries3 жыл бұрын
the most motivating speech i heard was from my community college eng professor bc he told us how he was an addict who has been to prison twice and he was in a car accident that almost killed him so he decided to turn his life around and become a teacher
