Although
last week’s Wednesday seemed to be a perfect day for a picnic in the park, I
spent most of the time studying in my room for a Spanish history exam I had the
following day – and after some hours I almost freaked out as all the names of
Spanish kings and year dates wouldn’t want to stay in my head. The fact that
our neighbour’s children were playing happily outside beneath my window and my
flatmates were sunbathing on the balcony while I had to fight with the
Visigoths and Romans made me feel even more down. I decided to have a little
break and to distract myself a bit with the goal to motivate myself more for
studying. I listened to some music on Youtube when I had the idea to search for
a pep talk to motivate myself. I just tipped “pep talk” into the search engine
and this is what I found:
In years
and years of television and watching youtube-videos for hours I have never ever
found something as touching, cute, humorous and above all truthful.. Don’t you
also think that we are all sometimes a little bit boring? That we complain too
often about things we are not willing to change? We all have our own dreams,
but what do we do to accomplish them? Do we work hard for it? Or do we just
wait for something to help us archiving our goals?
And what
the boy is saying about teams… isn’t it true that we are all in the same team? Shouldn’t
we try working together instead of hurting and ousting each other?
Of course,
sometimes we have loads of unpleasant things to do, not only for university but
for life in general, but there’s definitely no reason in complaining about it.
We can also look at it from another perspective and be grateful and glad that
we live in a country where it’s possible to attend university and where we can
all work on reaching or goals no matter about our sex, skin colour or how much
your parents earn..
“You got
some work to do? You can cry about it… or you can dance about it!”
