The main reason why I chose this video is because I’ve never been a confident person. I have always struggled feeling confident about myself. I have always compared myself with others, especially going into a very competitive nursing career where I am constantly comparing my intelligence with other students. I’m constantly doubting myself and putting myself down. I’m constantly feeling “not good enough” and doubting what I do know. I found this video very motivational, helpful, and inspiring. I strongly agree that “Confidence isn’t walking into a room thinking that you’re better than anyone. It’s walking in knowing that you don’t have to compare yourself to anyone”.

I came across this video through social media and found it very inspirational. John’s 300 pound weight loss journey shows that obesity does not have to be a life long trait. John came from a big weight family and he switched his life around to lose weight. He adapted better eating habits and worked out consistently to better his wealth. His journey shows that anyone can achieve anything with will power and dedication. In this video, the relationship between John and his girlfriend also showed that weight does not interfere with true love. John’s girlfriend loved him for who he was at 540 pounds, decided to marry him, and still loved him through out all of the obstacles he face during his weight loss journey.

This video is very inspirational to me and is something that hits home for me. I myself growing up struggled a lot with weight and went through a weight loss journey myself. When I was 18 i decided one day that I was tired of being over weight and made a change. It was like a switch that was just turned on and I have never turned it off since. 6 years later and I am happy to say that I have kept the weight that I lost off and workout on a weekly basis.

I posted this video because it is motivational. Anytime I see this video I share it.
This video shows a blind man in a hospital bed, in a room with another
man who is next to the window, the window has a brick wall on the other
side but what the person that can see next to the window always
describes an amazing story, they paint a fun, colorful picture for those
who cant see, they explain the “things” happening in so much detail and
make it so that those blind feel like they can see though words. It is a
beautiful thing.

Hello Everyone! My name is Kristina! I chose this video because it gives me the motivation to do things I do not normally do. For example, the people from this channel would literally say yes to anything because it would allow them to create new fun memories. Another example of something they would do is ask strangers to go sky diving with them even if they were afraid of heights. The idea is to face their fears and make that negative feeling into a positive feeling. What the owners of Yes Theory is trying to prove is that you can do anything if you just push yourself to do it, and a simple yes can lead you to that. As they said at the end of the video, "what makes you uncomfortable and what are you going to do about it" because doing something will only change that discomfort to comfortability.

This video is one of my favorites because it gives me motivation to keep moving forward in my educational goals. The goals I set for myself are difficult. Every class, grade, and fraction of a GPA matters in my career path. Every mistake is emphasized and perfection is minimized and expected when pursuing a medical profession. Someone like me, who has ADHD, does not fare well in academics. However, I do not care if makes it more difficult for me because the only thing I see in my future is being a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP). Micheal Jordan once said ” Never say never, because limits like fear are often just an illusion”. I always come back to this video when I feel unmotivated, tired, or hopeless. I gives me the fire to keep going even when I want to quit. I know in the end that it will all be worth it.

I found this video to be very motivational. The audio had certain parts that really stood out to me and I could relate to some information. I loved how the speaker, Eric Thomas, encouraged the audience to be better and aspire to be better. He emphasized that we should be ready and willing to work for our dreams and goals. He encourages the people to take control of their lives and even confront ourselves. He states that we ourselves are the only ones responsible for what we are going through, and we should hold ourselves accountable, and work to be where we want to be. This needs to be done through change. Also, we should not depend on others to try to accomplish our goals and use our pain as a push forward.

The reason I chose this videos is specifically because I find that, out of all of the motivational speakers, He is to me the most straight up and real person I have heard speak. I find this because he explain directly all the hardship he had to go through and how he continues to let his lowest point in time be around him as much as possible to remind him of how hard he has work to live the life he is living right now. He also mentions how through all of his life through all of the hardship he works as hard as possible, and most importantly never forget where you come from and who you are working so hard for becuase at the end of the day most people are going to want you to fail and those are the people who should fuel your ambition.

I chose this video, because it pushes me to keep going and overcome all the obstacles that get in my way. There are several situations where things have started to go bad and I just give up completely because I find it difficult to get back on track, but instead I should use those failures and obstacles as motivation to be better and work harder. I withhold from doing things because I fear I won’t be able to accomplish it, but that’s the one thing holding me back. There are so many things an individual can accomplish as long as they remember to stand back up and continue to fight for the things we dream and hope. There’s no reason we can’t achieve what we want. The only thing stopping us is ourselves.

I’ll be the first in my family to actually finish college so I have so many expectations from everyone that always makes me fearful of failure. I’m constantly second guessing myself if the career I want to work in is something I am even capable of doing and if I’m just setting myself up for failure. So, when I start feeling like this I always go back to this video to remind myself that if I really want what I’m working towards, then it’s worth trying. It reminds me that nothing is too big for me to do as long as I face challenges as productively as possible. It’s important to continue in life doing what we love to do rather than what we think we should do in order to live a life that has meaning to ourselves.
