Inspirational talk ni satu multibillon dollar industry. In short, you have to pay them to "inspire" you. Truth is, it doesn't work. This person even promote toxic positivity. You can feel inspired, the next second it's still the same old you. Sometimes you even feel worse. Why? https://twitter.com/mirulbb/status/1310463411793178624
1. Because the inspiration manufactured from outside. When the source is gone so does its shelf life. It gives you the rush but that's it. True and lasting inspiration unfortunately cannot come from outside.
2. It doesn't give you clear direction, follow up, and support that you need from your circle be it internal and external. On top of that you still need skills to help you sustain.
3. Most speakers often used pseudopsychology. In Malaysia sometimes they mix with certain references to religion (read: tunggang agama).
Kalau tengok video tu, lebih kepada nak bina source of motivation yang very egocentric, semua orang benci kita dan taknak kita berjaya. Building hostility ni as source of motivation akan ada effect buruk jangka masa panjang contohnya narcissism.
Dah few times dah nampak video this person. Awal ingat nak ignore je, tapi yang sedih bila kawan, cousins, pakcik makcik yang join seminar dia. Some of them maybe desperate to change their life, tapi labur duit pada "motivator" macam ni 😔
