Does anyone really have life "figured out?" If you're the average college student, I bet you most likely don't. With that being said, the New York filmmaker, Casey Neistat, did a pretty good job explaining it.

The thing about life is that for all of the hardships we might endure, it could be worse. Obviously, that might be a little cheesy and obnoxious because we all like to sulk sometimes. But there comes a point where it's time to suck it up. Life is about hustling; you have to stay on your grind and keep pushing regardless of what is happening. If my parents read this, they would probably laugh because this is coming from me, but it really is the truth.

Everyone gets down sometimes and that's fine, but if you take too long to sulk, you're wasting time! The guy who put together this 27-second film, Mr. Neistat, is the perfect example of a person who wastes no time. Now in his mid 30s, he has worked incredibly hard to become a successful filmmaker in New York City. Any time not being used to get something done is considered a waste of time in his book.

As extreme as that might sound, he isn't wrong. Think about how much more you might get done if you eliminated just a bit of down time in your day. Not all down time (don't worry, I'm not crazy), but just a little. Anyone can get stuff done if they put their mind to it.

Life is complicated. There's no arguing with that, but hustling, regardless of whatever might be going on, is definitely a start to moving in the right direction. It might be hard to accept that and actually take action, but trust me, if you get up and accomplish something right now, you will feel better than you did prior to completing that task. Now if only I practiced what I was preaching! Being lazy might be more fun than being proactive a lot of the time, but being proactive allows you to accomplish life goals. At the end of the day, no one can help you get through life without you helping yourself.

Don't forget to hustle.
