what do you have to do to keep momentum
0:01
and stay energetic on a daily basis
0:04
momentum comes from feeling like
0:06
what you're doing is going to matter and
0:08
at least to one person like i think if
0:10
you feel like
0:12
nobody cares if you make a video or if
0:14
you do more work on your project like if
0:16
you actually felt like nobody cares
0:18
you're not gonna you're not gonna show
0:20
up with any kind of you're gonna have
0:21
zero momentum
0:23
you're just not gonna show up because
0:24
you feel like
0:26
it doesn't matter and where it gets
0:27
really poisonous is when you feel like
0:30
it doesn't matter so therefore you don't
0:32
matter right and that's where i think a
0:34
lot of the world is stuck it's like
0:36
i don't matter because i'm not doing
0:38
anything that matters
0:40
right and so
0:42
what's always helped me is there are
0:43
days where i feel like
0:45
what i do really really matters and
0:47
there are days where i feel like it's
0:48
not as important you know it's like it's
0:50
not reaching
0:51
as many people
0:53
you know it's not having the impact that
0:54
it could have i'm and i'm not having the
0:56
impact that i could have and
0:59
what helps me through those situations
1:02
is just feeling like this is going to
1:04
matter to at least one person
1:06
whenever i can actually feel you know
1:08
what this this
1:10
look at this live stream right this live
1:11
stream is not hitting
1:13
a thousand people a million people
1:16
you know but if i feel if i can just get
1:18
around hey you know what this live
1:20
stream is important to michael
1:22
this live stream is important to zayn
1:24
right like if if michael ends up
1:26
loving uh
1:29
nick tabor
1:31
and that connection happened here on
1:33
this live stream he's like man that's
1:34
awesome i can't believe that happened
1:36
that's amazing
1:37
right
1:39
so
1:40
that's that's what i want to feel
1:43
momentum is really just a feeling
1:46
and
1:47
most of us are still stuck in the world
1:49
of like we feel like it doesn't matter
1:51
so how can you wrap your
1:53
heart right it's not it's not a logical
1:55
question but how do you wrap your heart
1:57
around feeling like this thing that i'm
1:59
about to do today will matter
2:01
and if you can do that consistently like
2:04
if every day you showed up and felt like
2:06
maybe maybe the world won't see this but
2:08
it's going to really help one person at
2:10
least one person
2:12
if you can if you can really wrap your
2:14
heart around that then everything starts
2:16
to change and you'll you'll get the
2:17
courage to go off and do the thing
2:20
so that's what i find
2:22
most important and how i build momentum
2:24
when i'm making my videos honestly every
2:26
time i'm making a video i come down to
2:27
make
2:28
uh like tuesdays usually my youtube
2:30
recording day i always i always um
2:34
stress out before i always procrastinate
2:36
for you know 15
2:38
20 minutes
2:39
10 minutes somewhere in that range
2:41
because i want it to be the best video
2:42
i've ever done
2:43
and
2:46
and then i catch myself
2:48
and i remind myself that it doesn't have
2:50
to be
2:51
the single best video i've ever done
2:54
it doesn't have to go off and reach
2:56
everybody in the world
2:57
i just have to do enough that
3:01
it helps
3:02
one person and
3:04
this is where you know lack of belief
3:06
comes in because you can
3:08
you can
3:10
not believe in yourself and the ability
3:12
to go
3:13
if you're gonna make a video or make a
3:14
project happen
3:16
will it hit a million people
3:18
that's hard to really believe in
3:19
yourself on
3:20
but can it help one person you know will
3:22
the video i make today help one person
3:24
that's pretty easy i think
3:27
to believe in yourself on
3:29
you know it's like yes my video can help
3:31
one person today and so if you hold on
3:33
to that it gives you enough courage
3:35
confidence momentum to actually go and
3:37
do the thing that you're supposed to do
3:39
and
3:40
hopefully goes off and helps you know
3:41
more than just that one person
3:44
but when you can feel that emotion when
3:45
you actually
3:46
deeply connect to it that yes this thing
3:48
that i'm about to do today will matter
3:50
to at least one person then you get the
3:52
momentum you need to go off and do the
3:54
thing
3:55
and then once you're in it it's easier
3:56
to keep going right once you have
3:57
momentum it's a lot easier to stay there
3:59
it's a lot easier to make a second video
4:01
to make another difficult call you know
4:03
whatever the thing is
