Just wondering, it's one of those days where you feel really down, unmotivated, even depressed, have no faith, don't feel like doing anything...whether if it's because of a personal problem, family crisis, relationship hiatus, academic difficulty, whatever it is, how do you guys deal with it? For me, whenever I'm in that position, I just think to myself: "At least I still have StarCraft; and because of this I can forget the world and just enjoy myself wholeheartedly."  | ||

Most of the things he said are lines from movies he acted in. I linked the video because it motivated me when I needed motivation not because I worship Will Smith. Stop derailing or this thread will turn into a shitfest. | ||

Is it so terrible to offer a couple words of inspiration to people? If you think that he's just an actor, blah this blah that..then you're mistaken. His words may be scripted, practiced..whatever, but they are meaningful and true, and with that people can choose to believe in themselves or sulk the rest of their life. It's not wheather he's famous or not, the point is he's trying to help people. Do you even know the story behind his life? Just because he's famous you despise him, but the struggles and hardships that he has overcome are immense. Not to mention the countless charities that actors donate to, or the fundraisers they organize. As for your worshipping actors statement..there are far worse people that society idolize, including murderers, rapists. So just leave it at, people will "worship" whomsoever they please. As for a just trying to get through the day.. A little music won't hurt to cheer you up, or finding a way to just forget about it. Have a better Outlook my friend, life is just not as great when your down in the dumps all the time. I know how that feels. | ||

However, I found that the best way to do is to not deal with it. That is because you can learn from emotions. I mean - don`t treat it as an unwanted tennant, that you wanna expell. You feel bad . Ask why ? Why do you feel bad ? This emotion does serve a purpose and it has a cause. So you do 'deal with it' eventually but its a very different approach. This is because you learn how to ensure a lasting joy and not the one based on a trivial, short-sited ambitions. With time you can learn that you are responsible for your emotional state. You are. Ater time and practice you become the orchestrator of the emotional system, not the slave of thereof. | ||

Whenever I rage because of SC, I think to myself, "At least I still have a normal life"; and because of this I can forget the losses and just enjoy myself wholeheartedly (sometimes). | ||

Have a better Outlook my friend, life is just not as great when your down in the dumps all the time. I know how that feels. It's very easy to say those things when you're one of the most successful and richest people in the world. No I don't know about Will Smiths life story because nothing about him interests me. It's far more impressive when its coming from someone with very little in life or someone who has accomplished something great against the odds (does not include rapping, acting, greedy business people). Like that guy with no limbs that's an inspirational video I can recommend. Anyway I will stop derailing this thread any further. | ||

Also motivational videos are annoying as hell and I hate everyone who posts them or refers them to people who are sad. They're only good for people who are already feeling peppy, and I don't want to cheer peppy people up either. Plus they're retarded and dogmatic, rather than actually being informative or having even an ounce of credibility in anything they suggest. As a critical thinker those videos just make me even more depressed and annoyed. It's like they're telling me I don't try, which is also patronizing. God I hate motivational videos. EDIT: Actually, all that is written really more with stress/anxiety in mind. When I'm sad I don't usually try to fight it or anything. I kind of enjoy it, ironically... When I'm sad I can read and stuff, but I also like to create. It's tougher for me when thoughts are racing thru my mind and I keep trying to obtain closure for something that has happened to me. If I'm sad it's basically the closure happening and it means I can just wait it out. | ||
