And take action, regardless of how I feel. This usually happens when I get so frustrated by my own inertia that I just have to do something.

[@GabrielsEpicLifeofGoals]

This video hit me like a brick. I'm in a constant cycle of not wanting to do what my parents want me to do in fear of being old I'm wrong, finally deciding to do something well for the first time, and getting shut back down again. If I'm correct, I remember failing to do basic tasks when I was a toddler growing up, and getting my grandmother to go apeshit at me. From my point of view, she hated me. From learning to write, to eating a banana, the list goes on. It was as if every mistake I made was a personal statement of disrespect towards their authority. And yes, I think that fear carried over to everything that I am today, the reason why I strive to be better and better eveyday, the reason why I love completing goals, the reason why I love bragging, it's as if I'm trying to prove to myself that I'm worthy. Like I'm trying to get that "Good job, you did well." I never got from my grandma in my very early life. Hearing a "Good job" would tell me that I'm doing well, and there's no reason to be afraid of failure. If anything, I'd say to forgive myself for all the mistakes I've made in my life, tell myself "I know you don't want to do it, but remember, you have to. And even though you are afraid, just remember, no one's here to scream at you, or make you feel like you're unworthy of love. Just do it, focus on the task, and you'll manage no matter what." P.S.: Yes, my parents and grandparents love me very much. Yes, I did get a "good job" A LOT during my childhood. Yes, my parents are great parents. These are scars created with negative experiences during time.

I'm not lazy, bored or unmotivated... I'm just tired of trying. Fear consumed my life and staying in my bubble and not doing anything helps me manage that fear. Getting out of that bubble makes everything come back. This summer, I was finally happy. Then, school started and I'm miserable again. I still had anxiety, of course but it was more mild. It is now unbearable. I don't feel like doing anything, I feel mentally exhausted even though I barely did anything. I just want to lay in bed, and never get out. But I have places to go and activities to do, and they do not make anything better, they just make things worse and worse.

[@spimbles]

[@javimartinez9300]

you want to stay in bed all day because everything else just makes you suffer, but that's the thing, you are the one causing your own suffering by being afraid. you have anxiety when you are in school because you have to interact with people? then you probably don't find enjoyment in it simply because you are afraid of being judged, because you view yourself as inferior to others and thus incapable of enjoying simply talking to someone. the answer to this is that fear is irrational, it stems to protect us from dying. back in the day being rejected by people meant being alone in the wilderness, so those who survived evolved to avoid those situations by creating loneliness and the fear of being rejected. but now that fear is not real, you are not going to die if you are rejected socially. the only way to stop being afraid, to stop all the suffering, is simply to realise that fear is irrational and that the world has changed, to understand how truly lucky you are to be living in a safe country at a time of prosperity, and that you have no real reason to worry despite how much your mind likes to push your fears onto yourself. as the video says, you can apply that to any that you find displeasing, you just need to discover what is it that you are fearing.

[@sibilansnel]

@@javimartinez9300 Hey, I actually know all this, and I did know all this before starting therapy. I know it's completely irrational and yet it's still here. I also know that other people are too worried about how they themselves appear to others to notice me. Nobody really pays attention to others enough to judge them. But it's still here. That's what is so frustrating about it. Before school I'll be like "hey, they won't care so you should just relax" and then in the moment I'm completely frozen and anxious.

And when you make it to 4, hes up at 15. And when you fail, you dont know how to deal with it because that doesnt happen to you, but that other guy knows exactly what to do, hes done it multiple times already, failing is normal to him, as is starting something new.

Just remember that one day, suddenly, that person can be hit by a drunk driver or fall over the wrong way and become disabled or stone cold dead. All that progress and supposed success, gone. Success is only defined by what you think it is and, like everyone elses view on it, is probably fickle. It’s probably not an answer you’re looking for, if you even are looking for one, but just remember a giant space rock can hit us at anytime and none of this will ever matter.

This gives "just be happy" vibes. There's some of this that's true, there's some I'm not knowledgeable enough to say either way, but some of this is just blatantly false. The one thing I like about this video is how it points out how fear is a reason behind many of our difficulties in the first world. The thing that isn't true is that "just do it" is the solution. He safeguards this by saying how "this will only work for some people", but that just points out part of the problem with it. Getting over these fears is a lot more difficult than "just do it" and there can be a lot more blocks than just that. Life isn't that simple. Get help from those around you, or go to a therapist who's qualified and knows what they're talking about; don't rely on a video of someone speaking from personal experience with no background in the field of study by own admission.

[@JimmyMon666]

He's not saying just be happy, but to do it. There's a difference. It's not terrible advice, some therapists will actually suggest "fake it until you make it" type advice. Just doing anything can be productive. That said, it's not going to work for all situations. If you lack good looks and skills/intelligence, just doing something has a good chance of not achieving. At the end of the day you are still limited by how others perceive you (though you can have some influence on that, but not all), and you are limited by your skillset and intelligence. Some skills can be improved, true. But it's not like I'm ever going to be an NBA player or a famous musician, I simply lack the skills and I'll never get them. So the Just Do It advice has to be tempered by acknowledgement of your limitations.

[@annaairahala9462]

@@JimmyMon666 Yes, some situations you can fake it until you make it. But that's the problem, it's only some situations that works. Take someone with clinical depression or general anxiety, both of those inhibit you in ways that you can't "just do it" and there are other ways to work through it. I think generalizing this as a solution when it's really only a solution for a few can actually do more harm than good. If you think you need help, seek help and don't just try to do it on your own.

[@hcxpl1]

​@@annaairahala9462 I agree with you this has some pretty bs vibes, but I also do thing the heart of this advice does apply to many things, we can so easily get caught up on thousands of reasons for not doing something that we don't even try, but, if we did, we would realize it is not the monster we thought it was or that, at least, it is manageable. For bigger things like quitting work I do think this advice is too impulsive, but I'd say the main idea is to simply move on: if you don't like your job, at least look for other options and stuff. And for smaller, simpler things I'd say you'll never do something by thinking about how to best do it, that will only give anxiety, but the best course of action is to go on, do things, make mistakes and than correct those, evolve little by little. So yeah, I agree with you it is way too oversimplified I guess it is needed bc that encourages people to simply do it, and I feel many of their problems would at least become significantly easier if they did, and for those problems that don't, well, then they would have to search for more specific help.

@@playerdude2 How so? I'm a grammar and mechanics pedant and have professionally edited and I can't figure out what's wrong with it. It's obviously informal and intentionally evokes spoken tone, with the apostrophe on "lovin'", but I don't think saying "I am loving [subject]" instead of "I love [subject]" is necessarily incorrect. Perhaps it's technically just barely incorrect since the verb can be used more simply for essentially the same meaning, but I would argue that it's not incorrect since it's structurally sound, the elements all have correct relationships, and there are tons of ways to paraphrase just about anything and paraphrasing isn't inherently wrong.

This video resonated with me due to recent life circumstances. There was something looming over my head for weeks, and the only solution was to JUST DO IT regardless of how boring or unpleasant it was. Normally, that is not an issue for me, but I had developed a sense of PTSD regarding this particular issue/situation and so I felt uncharacteristically put off by it. But at its root, it was simply fear. Another fear is that if you keep moving forward relentlessly in life, you will actually go somewhere. Things will change and time will pass, and that can be scary in its own way. But you have to realize that time will pass either way, and if nothing has been done and nothing has changed, then you will simply keep ruminating about the same situations endlessly. Moving forward does not mean forgoing self-reflection. It means making significant changes and progress in your life, so that when the time for self-reflection comes, there is always something new to think about and new options to appraise. It means means making the most out of the limited time we have to be alive.

Very true. But it's paradoxical. Fear is on one hand what's stopping them from taking action and as you cleverly pointed also the thing that makes the push until burnout. I've experienced both ends (mostly burnout from overworking leading me to a physical illness). I'm not a fan of productivity. There is a more balanced approach that "just push through". Don't want to give unsolicited advice, but since you suffered similar stuff as myself I wanted to share what helped me. If you're looking to resolve this unbalance a great thing that has worked for me and many people I worked with (same types) is to learn to listen to your body (great start is start a body scan meditation regularly is you haven't. And do some short "grounding" breaks all through the day that helps centre and become intentional. Also as almost no-one mentioned in this sphere of "productivity" work with feelings and nervous system is important It takes a fair amount of practice but is well worth it and makes it so that actually you can work more effectively and be more relaxed at the end of the day. Hope this helps a little, but I'm happy to point you to anything that might help.

A person who feels vulnerable constantly lives in the expectation of troubles... and laziness becomes their only available defensive reaction to a possible threat.

I teared up watching this. You perfectly described everything I'm feeling.

This video perfectly described what I'm going through. I came to a realization that I have all these self destructing habits for the sake of distracting myself from actually accomplishing goals because I fear that my preconceived notions of them won't be attained. Thank you for this video, I don't know if I'm part of the 10% people who are in the right place and at the right time, but it certainly did woke me up.

I hate the phrase "just do it". It gives no value to conversations and focuses on will power that is finate. It doesnt encourage you to find long lasting solutions just hits your insecurities of being lazy and giving you momentary motivation out of shame. It really is something that I think brings more harm then good, it may be a kick starter but often is something that just brings more shame, bc it is "that easy" "just do it" "what is wrong with you" "why dont you just do it?" and other similar thouths that ran over mine and Im sure not only mine head. I WANT TO NOTICE, that I appreciate that in this video it was described the more productive way of thinking about it. It was actually really good, but in general understanding I dont think that most ppl feel like this about this phrase. I myslef heard that definition for the first time.

[@thefunnylovingomega3429]

How about this, just do it, then refine it, so u don't have to do it again and again?

[@larkaiio3376]

​@@thefunnylovingomega3429 but then again, it is a healthy approach to motivating yourself and getting started, this phrase can do it, but I still think that in majority it is more demotivating then motivating. Especially that it is often used in comercials with talented athletes or something like that, running marathones and climbing Mt Everest. Wich in fact both of these activities and others like them need something more then just will power and motivation, they need sustainability, dedication. Motivation and will power eventually run out, you have a bad day or smth. It is not reliable. And your actions need to be reliable in order to succed at long term goals. Thats why I think it can be harmful, bc it shifts focus from sustainability to short term motivation and shows you like everything is possible with it. And its not true. So people say at the start of the year that they are gonna work out, in a motivational kick in a theme of "just do it". And almost nobody last, and most of the people that dont last feel worse about its then in the start. It doesnt promote acceptance to our feeling and lazines wich are both natural, it doesnt show how to work with them not against them, and overall it doesnt give you any real solutions just a vague idea that everybody can "just do it" but you are just too lazy for it.

[@larkaiio3376]

@@thefunnylovingomega3429 I think that if you refine this phrase, make it more about acceptance like you did, it wont be damaging so much, it wont give you the guilty feeling that it does in its raw form. But not many people do that, most just see this on a motivational addidas video and it goes into their subconcious mind. And if u dont have other tools to work with motivation it brings guilt.

It was a vicious cycle, just like every other addiction. I decided i want to embrace being bored and feeling bad. I decided if i don't start right now, i will look back and wish i had started that day. I realized if i don't start walking one step at a time (sometimes not even a full step but still forward), it would only get worse. Use games as a reward, not an escape. Even as a reward keep it short. Because you need to admit you are sick and you can't get the same amount of others.

We spent a lot of money, developed a couple of skills, went a lot of places and met some interesting people in the process. Aside from raising our dogs, it was really the only project we agreed on. To this day it's still a common, friendly topic and the pieces are in a couple of tubs at her place.

From personal experience it can really help to just recognize the actual source of fear instead of just thinking you’re bored or lazy. I wasn’t actually to lazy to do my research paper, I was scared I wouldn’t be able to finish on time. Instead of working on it, I just tried to avoid the source of fear. I’m not too lazy to go to work, I’m just nervous because I’m still new and it’s a stressful environment. No one wants to be lazy, and thinking that you are probably makes you feel guilty. Have some compassion for yourself and see that it’s not just you, there’s a reason. Thinking that’s its just your personality or that you don’t really care can keep you down. Something like being afraid or depressed is not your fault. Try to take steps to make yourself feel more at ease!

This is what I've been realizing recently. The being afraid part is very correct..... but for me I don't fear being alone or "in my head." I never understood that quote that's like "humanity's problems stem from an inability to sit in a room quietly." It makes me confused, bc there's truth to it, I've def seen it in others, but it feels like that's the only problem I *don't* have... my problem is that I don't have this problem. I feel most comfortable being alone, in my head. I don't really care too much about validation from others, and it seems that's what ultimately drives everyone else in some shape or form... It makes me feel guilty and broken... because that's the norm. Like everyone else, I do have a void inside, but it is not people-shaped, and that is very strange... I do love my friends, but I always feel empty. I need a goal, or a calling. I'm trying to stop being fearful so that I can get out there & figure out what I want, but it's hard. Trying to find something to fill the void, whatever it is. Something that can bring me peace. This video was very helpful, thank u

I relate to your feelings on many levels, what I decided to do was sit down with myself and truly, truly try pull my purest interest from out of me, regardless of limits, risk to pursue and other factors, and just listen to what I suggested forth. For me, it was actually animation! This surprised me as I literally had never pursued art and got an F on my first exam, yet I still wanted to do it, deep down, even though I feared being incapable. So I stuck to myself, never showed anyone my work and now I’ve produced some great little scenes and I’m building ever-skywards. Another thing I genuinely wanted to do was volleyball. All my life I had been severely unathletic but now that I’m in a new area nobody knows me, so I’m just gonna go for it. The point is dig deep to find what your raw interest gravitates towards, and, well ‘just do it’, however small that may be, however hidden your practice is from everyone else, just follow your interest, because it’s unique and will lead you to great places.

As I slowly try to rebuild my life after a catastrophe, the one thing I'm finding is 'doing' is helping me more than wondering and doubting and thinking. I see some comments complaining that 'just do it' isn't the right thing, and I'd like to say maybe if you modify it with 'do something', or 'start by doing something'; if your space is a mess, don't 'clean it up' in one go, but 'put that thing away', and then mabye, 'that thing', so breaking it down into small tasks helps when you are, like I have been, stunned into inaction when before I was always 'doing'. I am still faced with big doubts that weren't there before, but 'doing something' even a 'small thing', helps me kick the dog back a few paces and gives me a little more positive momentum.

To everyone: Check your eyes fully. I had undiagnosed astigmatism (slight blurry vision) my whole life. When I got contact lenses that fixed my eyesight my mind changed to unmotivated to very focused. My body suddenly got muscles without me doing anything. I was able to finally sleep and its very uncomfortable for me to procrastinate now. CHECK YOUR EYES PLEASE. Ive lost focus my whole life.

"it's fear" alright i'm stopping you right there and dropping out

[@whiteface513abandonedchann8]

Yeah I kinda got pissed off at that

[@darrencheek8158]

Ask yourself why you're upset over the idea of fear being the problem? As someone who suffers from depression, I can completely see how my fear of failure or making the wrong choices has overridden my sense of purpose and determination which led me to feeling sorry for myself and hopeless, which, in turn, created my depression. I own that. But then you might be pissed off for other reasons. Idk but I understand why you would be annoyed over the idea of fear being the cause of these problems. It's annoying to admit to feeling fear especially when we've been ignoring the emotion for so long.

[@samyichiro4567]

The most realistic and true advice I had ever ! All this gurus dividing fear and procastination and many other bs. And here its all laid out ! We are simply afraid, all we need to do is to get our ass up and start making stuff.

this lady is right we took depression for serious only cuz it said to us how that is so it motivated to our depression side and fears for killing out time

This was more helpful than what I thought it would be. I love the idea of reframing boredom or lack of motivation. It was simple but extremely impact full.

I can't imagine having a job I love; the associated feeling of happiness with a job? Even if I'm doing something I enjoy, like play music, I'm still wrought with anxiety over my performance...

This is the equivalent of someone asking "how do I climb a mountain" and being told "just go up"

[@FunctionallyLiteratePerson]

Eh, while this may be helpful for some, I find it fell flat in many ways. I would not say fear is the leasing cause of any of these feelings for me, plus I definitely think that people are able to legitimately feel boredom in the modern era.

[@bobdole6691]

I seldomly feel true emotional boredom when even small stimuli is presented in front of me, prolly just the adhd in me. Only true boredom comes from being forced to do monotonous tasks or waiting a long time for me.

[@TheDrackhenslager]

I’d say boredom has changed with the rise of internet and social media. It’s not boredom by lack of stimuli, but by overstimulation; we get less and less satisfaction from new interactions and get numbed.
