this actually works 😁👌

Hey guys, a friend told me today about a TikToker who's been posting public interviews with heavy edits just to make fun of people. It's school-specific, and some of my close friends were targeted.

We tried reaching out to the TikToker and politely asked them to take the videos down, but they’re refusing. Even after trying to call and talk it out, the person’s been acting weird and still won’t remove the content.

So, a few of us are organizing a group to report the videos. If you use TikTok and are down to help, please join the group below 🙏

Lately I’ve learned something important. you gotta think big and dream big, even if it feels kinda cringe sometimes. For real. Don’t hold back or try to play it safe just because the people you look up to haven’t done it yet. That doesn’t mean you can’t. You might actually be the first one to do something in a way no one thought was possible even the people you admire.

@selfmadecoder

I finally get what it means to compete with yourself also. When you stop comparing yourself to others, you start running your own race. And once you’re in your own lane, your goals. even if they seem way too ambitious to others. can’t really be compared to anyone else’s. It’s like playing a totally different game.

@selfmadecoder

Might sound a little messy, but that’s exactly how it hit me. I was playing it safe in some areas of my life, thinking I needed to follow a certain “path” to get where I wanted to go. But then things started happening without me following the plan. And that made me question everything like, maybe the way I saw it before just doesn’t make sense anymore. So now, I’m rethinking how I define a lot of things.

Y’all really think David Goggins is just another motivational speaker? Nah, that dude’s built different not like the ones who just talk.
