HOW "DEAD WEIGHT FALLS AND IT SETS YOU FREE"

Q: I had been out of work in my industry since Feb 2020. I spent the entire time sending out resumes to countless job postings. I would often send my resume out to 200+ job listings and not even receive a single interview. During the entire period, I probably had 3-4 real legitimate interviews. In one of them the guy interviewing me was some schmuck who I replaced in a prior job that I was eventually let go from due to internal politics and bullshit outside of my abilities. So this guy basically already had a bad opinion about me, and I knew I wasn't going to get that job.  I've felt essentially blacklisted from my industry despite the fact that I never once got written up or reprimanded in my previous position at Apple. However, when I applied to go back, I was not re-hired. It pissed me the fuck off because I had recruited a guy from my master's program out of the kindness of my heart to help someone else out, and all he did was bring negative stories about me and gossip ...

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES from JOE ROGAN

"They relish the time to to take a shit in the bathroom and look at their phone." / "You have to take a path that's dangerous and most people want to take the safe path. The safe path leaves you stuck in quiet desperation almost every time. It's Hell. It's Hell."

"The way you can change is you have to put aside enough money to give yourself a window, and then you have to have a plan and you have to spend all your waking hours outside of whatever shit job you do, planning your escape. And you have to come to the realization, very clearly, that you fucked up, you got yourself stuck. / "Whatever time that you have, you have to attack like you're trying to save the world, you're trying to save your life, you don't wanna drown." 

"Failure teaches you things you don't learn from success." / "Failure gives you an opportunity for self examination and also gives you a feeling that is very uncomfortable. And that very uncomfortable feeling helps you grow." / "When I've had bad podcasts, my podcast has always gotten better afterwards. When I've had bad stand-up sets, I've always gotten better after that, because those bad sets motivate you, they give you a perspective, like "Hey, here's some clear examples of where you fucked up." / "Don't look at these failures as proof that you suck. Look at them as opportunities for growth. Look at them as opportunities to be motivated to do better." / "Don't be scared of failure. I think failure is awesome for you."

"Live your life like you're the hero in your movie." / "Pretend right now that... you're in the part of the movie that starts and it shows you as a fucking loser... decide not to be a loser anymore."

"If I only worked out when I felt good, I'd be a fat fuck because there's a lot of days when I don't want to do it."

Whatever you may be going through, I hope you get through it. Stay strong! 🤘🙏
