This is all looks like great advice and will probably work for a lot of people BUT please be aware: Human beings are messy and complicated and what works for some people might very well not for you. It doesn't mean your weird or broken in any way.

Also if you have major issues with motivation and self discipline, look into ADHD. I have inattentive ADHD so I had a lot of issues with this stuff for years and it was ruining my life, but I didn't have the relatively 'flashy' hyperactive traits so had no idea for most of my life.

That depends on what I’m accelerating and how fast I’m making it go.

If I push a piece of rebar to relativistic speeds, it won’t really matter which direction I point it.

Yes.

Why do people join the GetMotivated subreddit but then mock every single post? I have yet to see one where comments are actually positive.

I asked ChatGPT to “Give me a limerick that talks about nothing changes from day to day but when you look back everything is different in the style of C.S. Lewis”

Well they move the same speed as the thing projecting it

Tell that to a golfer.

How'd you tell it to do this

The last part is sort of how I motivate myself to practice playing music. I heard someone say that you can either get 1% worse every day, or 1% better. It's a choice. Implies that results won't be immediately noticeable, but over time they show. The same with the inverse.

I think the aim of the post might be leaning towards stoicism. I’ve been trying to get into it recently as I got out of a relationship. The thoughts of “what ifs” really bring me anxiety. But the “what ifs” aren’t real fortunately and I just need to remember that

I first read this as 'Imagine your direction is more important than your speed.'

Life didn't even start for me until 27 bro, you're doing great

I like this, I’ll give it a try. I struggle with self control so much and I HATE it. Change is hard.

Tbh i just thought about it today on how shadows look stationary even tho they move just very very very slowly

Stupid language thing to be honest. Speed is everyday use, velocity is physics student use. Speed is the length of the velocity vector.

This is why we have "Velocity" to combine both into a more meaningful measurement.

We often don’t notice the change

That happens each day in our range

But when we look back

We see a new track

That shows how our lives can rearrange

Especially because if you are going full speed on the wrong direction you are gonna get fucked faster!

Velocity is a vector

Thank you for sharing this. I feel so behind going back at 28.

Wind speeds and other things can factor into this, too

Also, you're.

❤️💭 appreciate you and hope you have the best day.

Go pound sand, it was predetermined.

Life isn’t both ways plus this is the internet and it goes a long ways to be accepting all around ❤️
