Short YouTube monologue by Barkus Luckey offering motivational reflections: urges aiming high (‘shoot for the moon’), cites Marcus Aurelius and Ryan Holiday to contrast mindsets of seeing others’ success as discouraging versus motivating, and encourages taking action during difficult times such as COVID/lockdown. Tone is informal and encouraging.

As is becoming a new pattern. My daughter every morning is leaving me sicken over the today she's written for me shoot for the moon, because if you miss it, you will still land among the stars. Marcus Aurelius has to say, if you find something very difficult to achieve yourself, don't imagine it impossible for anything possible and proper for another person can be achieved as easily by you. And I like that. And like Ryan Holiday goes on to say, there's two types of people in this world and the first look at others who have accomplished things and think why them? What I mean? And the others look at those same people and those same actions and think if they can do it, I can do it. And I like that one a lot. There's been some awesome stories coming out of Lockdown and Covid and so this is a dragon one but the ones I like to refer to are are the ones where people are having a crack. So get out there, have a crack, have a wonderful day. See you soon. Cold chap. Lost me. Bye.
