Nobody Gives a S&*T About What You Think!

The hard truth is that when you’re struggling, most people don’t really care. Sure, they might sympathize for a moment, offer a kind word, or say they’re there for you—but at the end of the day, everyone is caught up in their own problems. Life moves on, and if you don’t take control of your situation, no one else will. It’s not because people are heartless; it’s just human nature. We’re all wired to prioritize our own survival, our own goals, and our own comfort. That’s why waiting for someone to notice your pain and step in to help is a losing game. You have to be the one to dig yourself out.

This isn't to say that friendships and support systems don’t exist, but they can only do so much. Even those who love you most can’t carry your burden for you. No one is coming to save you, and the sooner you accept that, the sooner you can start making real changes. Hard times reveal who truly stands by you, but even then, their support is just a boost—it’s not the foundation. The foundation has to be you. You have to make the tough decisions, push through the exhaustion, and find ways to build yourself up when no one else will. It’s a lonely road at times, but it’s also the path to real strength.

So what can you do? First, develop self-discipline—make small commitments to yourself and keep them, whether it's waking up earlier, eating better, or sticking to a plan. Second, create your own support system, whether that’s through books, podcasts, or even journaling—something that keeps you mentally strong when others aren’t around. Lastly, take action every single day. Even if you don’t feel like it, do one thing that moves you forward. No one is coming to save you, but you can save yourself. And that’s where real power begins.
