Sarcastically speaking...

When I read a motivational quote and it doesn't make sense to me, I think "That must be aimed at other people, and How Do I Become One Of Those Other People?".

Because obviously those people Matter - I mean, they must, right?

They're the ones getting Motivationals written at them.

I Want To Be One Of Them.

Then I too will be beautiful and popular and socially adept and liked and all that good stuff.

Jeez - possum

That was sarcasm.

It really depends on how it may

Be phrased and to whom its aimed

For example

If there is a sign in a

WC in a restaurant

"Dont forget to 

Wash your hands:)"

this may have a positive

Effect on all

But If the sign was aimed

Specifically at staff

And said

"any staff member

Caught not washing

Their hands will be

Instantly dismissed"

This ceases to become

Motivational and becomes

Confrontational

As is the case here

Lets not assume that

Anyone here needs it

Wants it or will even

Read it but go ahead

And put it up anyway

I find there's something unrealistic about some motivational quotes I read.

They seem to come from another place, a place where pain and suffering are just words.

Sometimes I write my own "Not-so-motivationals"; a reflection on the difference between their world, and mine.

I am not sure how many motivational posts the young ones read.

This vanity fueled selfie craze is concerning for sure.

The pose and pout  and they are so young!

We are all hapless

Freight

On the train of  fate

Oh agree for sure!

Happy families here, yet daughter got dealt the bad card.

Thats how it goes unfortunately

Some people seem to cop it 

Every which way
