Motivational Words of Encouragement Are Usually Inane Lies

Like those people who say they "live a life without regret"? Twaddle. Bollocks. The medical world has a name for people who do not exhibit lament, regret or remorse for actions. Psychopaths. If you are truly regret free all the time, you probably have anti-social personality disorder and other people's feelings don't matter to you.

Of course, people with anti-social personality disorder do have that arrogance confidence that society encourages people to have.

What about those who "live every day as if it were there last"? Fucking bullshit. Utter tripe. Pure drivel.

Can you imagine the actual implications of actually living each day as if it were your last? Each and every day?

Most people would want to do something amazing, a true milestone in their lives, if they knew it was their last day on the planet. They would fucking go skydiving or swimming with stingrays or some shit. Or buy a real expensive caviar dinner served by the world's top cooks on an original copy (original copy... isn't that an oxymoron?) of the U.S. Constitution.

You would go broke, real fast. Normal people don't have enough money to do shit like go to space camp and play poker with world-renown pros in Zero-G. Or play a game of hockey against Wayne Gretzky on the summit of Mt. Everest.

If it were my last day on Earth, I'd pie all of those politicians I don't like in the face, knowing that whatever time I spend in jail would be well worth the deed.

If it were your last day on Earth, you'd probably want to spend real quality time with your close family and friends, as well. Let them know you love them, settle all your conflicts, make peace, etc.

Those are all nice things, but no one would want you to hang around them if you wanted to do those things every goddamn day. No one wants you to "reflect on our beautiful friendship" when they are trying to watch a movie, or tell them what you want them to know should you die before tomorrow.

Any motivational speaker, life coach or general "encourager" who follows his or her own advice must be evil and poor. And in jail.
