The PsychicPebbles Motivational Speech

#PsychicPebbles #TheCreateUnknown

[TheEndiPL]

"Hey Tomar what would you do if I inspired you to set yourself goals and accomplish great things"

[Leo-rcrn]

As much as I enjoy Zach's comedy, listening to him seriously speaking is a unique kind of treat.

[QuantumPineapple]

I've been asking for this speech for years now I'm glad someone got on it

[Jombo]

He speaks the truth. Life just feels miserable and pointless when there's nothing to work towards. Doesn't matter how stupid it is, as long as its something.

[Ono_M]

There are only two states of being: a person with a goal OR an ant under a boot

[DivineBanana]

Zach is a fucking sage, I swear. If he had a philosophy/meditation podcast where he just talked about existential subjects like this, I'd listen 100%. dude is a genius

[Cannedscourge]

PREACH! Goals are what got me from homelessness to a job in IT and an undergraduate. Don't confuse psychicpebbles goofiness for foolishness. He knows what he's saying.

[lmaohhahhalolol]

always loved zach, since i found him in like 2010.. always will, he’s so real

[Sir_Saki]

Goals are how we move forward and makes us better. We strive for something and not having that, we just smolder into nothing. Heating Zack talk about this is deeply satisfying. Its something a lot of us need to hear every now and then.

[gabrielorville]

That is exactly what is at the core of the theory of complexes in Jungian psychology. What gets stuff into motion is psychic energy. Like when something horrible happens to you you get a complex because emotion, thought, ideas, etc. Pileup on an issue, and bang you're driven in unconscious ways and there's an archetypal imagery attached to that.

Same with goals, you're consciously gearing that whole process harnessing the psychic energy a goal can do.

There's problems that zap you out of energy and that's when a complex has been split so radically it can't draw any energy, cuz there's no active life anymore. It's tough to say to someone who has nothing going for him to pick a goal because life is shit wall to wall, but that's actually the answer.

[TrevorZero]

Listening to this while I work out and make videos on the internet. God bless you, you beautiful goblin man.

[OtherMomo]

I was busier thanni thought I would be when I listened to this episode so a lot of it is in-n-out of my head, but this whole epithet is clear in my memory, jeez.

[roguecypress]

He should know, he's both green and retired

[Fwoup]

I absolutely loved listening to Zach's speech, great to see someone I've always looked up to have such great insight

[kouzaris]

Very true. Humans NEED hope to survive. Even if that hope is misplaced.

[OrenjiPerson]

zach is the real smiling friends character

[KG_Ops]

I’ve been saying this for like 4 years now.

[WoolenDoolen]

while what hes saying is true, you have to care about life for this to work. If you dont, like me, you kind of end up asking yourself "do i really care to make goals? do i really care about life to put effort into doing things i dont like or want to do? what if i feel like i dont need to aspire to things?" usually people who ask these questions turn to religeon for hope, even if the hope is misplaced. and while they are free to do that if that makes them feel like thier life has meaning, i personally dont have that hope in life or really care for it.

[dizzyboi]

Based on the thumbnail I thought things were gonna go wayyyy different

[igeljaeger]

the problem is if someone has a risk-averse mindset, they will stop themselves at some point from progressing further
