Just do a day of shrooms or LSD, you will definitely get back in touch with the childlike wonder.

You know...all these years I've listened to motivational speeches but none ever hit me as hard as Jim, and I'm wondering why am I discovering Jim now?

Surely there's a better video to attach to this, than a head getting the fuck smashed out of it.

Also, always stand up for what is right, even if you're standing alone.

>it gets such a bad rep and ppl act like it's hard and shit but its literally not
Maybe not if you are privileged. If you live in a location with insecurities, violence, expensive food, lack of public transportation, wasn't born in a structured family and has to hard work 10 hours/day AND study, discipline is just not enough.
This is actually a trap created by the same minds that think we live in a meritocratic society.
Discipline by it self is not enough, you have to fight for yours rights too.

>Humans give themselves way too much credit for the power of consciousness, we are biological machines running on train tracks
I think the power of human consciousness is that we can set the switches. Which is pretty powerful in its own, don't you think?

I think it’s too easy to be distracted by other things as an adult. Instead of taking the time to watch the world happen, we know we can pick up our phones and have instant stimulation.

Careful with that, the construct of belief is protecting you as much as it is a detriment. They call it blissful ignorance for a reason.

Break it all down, this reality is more amazing than you’d think, and that’s not even going into detail about all the other realities we can visit as the construct of soul if we’ve got compatible vessels there.

So is it Jim Rohn or Alexis Carrel who said this?
