When Things Are Hard, Work Harder! | DTubeDaily

in #video7 years ago (edited)


This is sort of a rambling video update. I didn't want to chop it all up, I just wanted to speak my mind and try to stop hiding all the time. Sorry it's so long. The basic message is: I've been struggling to climb out of a slump, but I've always been good at fighting my hardest when i'm at rock bottom. If things aren't going well, and all you want to do is hide away from everything, that's when you have to push your hardest. There's nothing you can't climb out of with enough hard work. There's nothing you can't do with enough determination. So keep fighting, and let me know if I can help.

Thank you for watching.

When you said that you felt trapped I could really feel you. That is exactly the feeling that I can share with you. This situation, this house, this job, this whole life sometimes feels like prison. Like the wrong thing. I hope we can backup each other even through that long distance. Thanks for your honesty.

You're welcome man! I'm way overdue for some travel... but sometimes even just dropping everything and going camping is enough to feel better about my situation for a while. It really helps when you have a lot of great people who have your back too! Thank you, man!

Thanks for having the courage to put this out there Jeff. This kind of content is so helpful to people. You're showing human vulnerability, openness, honesty, your reality. I go through these things too and hide - books, sleep, movies, anything that helps me to escape. I'm lucky that I do have a safe place to go and talk about it, but really the world can be a safe place to open up as you have, because there won't be a single person out there who can't relate to how you're feeling on some level, and if more people spoke this way, the world would be a more beautiful place.

Or you could just put on the Downward Spiral on a good pair of headphones. There's only been one time I can think of where that didn't help me, and that was a BAAAAD sign!

Thanks man! A little Trent Reznor always helps!

Hey @jeffmcmullen you are very brave to speak about this man. I have always enjoyed your work. YOU ROCK! I really mean that. Sometimes we get lost but eventually we all find our way man. Trust me I am speaking from experience. Hang in there man.

Thank you! @the-puppet-patch I'll be ok, just need to focus on staying productive... I'm glad you like my work! That means a lot :)

Harder and Deeper! Let's do thissss! :D :D :D hahaha

Thanks Mo! Let's get it! ;)

Brother, I just want to say that if you ever need to talk to someone then please feel free to do so with me. I'm there for my family man! and you are a part of it!

Winny out...for now ;)

Thanks a ton Winny! I'll keep that in mind!

This must have been a very hard video to make my hat is off to you.
I'm newish to the dtubedaily crew so I havent had a chance to follow everyone yet, I feel like I know you now :-) So ill keep in touch.
Take it easy my friend.

Thanks man! In a way it was freeing. I sort of bottle it up a lot of the time and I become so calloused to emotions that I stop feeling anything. I feel a lot better now and I'm getting back to work! It's really helped a lot having the ddaily fam to keep me motivated. I'm glad you can be a apart of it and I'm really glad to know you!
