Aventus's Journey to Becoming More Real (DMSI V3.1)

[eternity]

My favorite way to get motivated is to respond to "You can't do that! That's impossible." ...with "Oh yeah? 'Zat so?" and then doing it. 'Cause take that, doubters! lol

Is this a healthy form of motivation Shannon? I feel the EXACT same way, like I'd do everything in my power to do what others doubted I could when I said I wanted to do it.

Is it healthy to really strive to do the best in order to prove others wrong or to end up delivering the biggest, most righteous "**** you!!!" to those you don't like?

I'd like to know too, because I discussed this with someone the other day. I personally don't think it's healthy to use it as a prime motivator, but I really see no harm in using it as fuel to add to achieving your goals.

Is it really worth putting in so much energy and effort to prove someone else wrong? Why not channel that energy into achieving your goals, with a side effect of proving others wrong, rather than proving others wrong with a side effect of achieving your goals? Energy is precious and I'd rather invest it efficiently I don't wanna waste my energy on my haters.
