Resources are not that important
I'm talking about getting things done. As a human being, most of the stuff you once thought of as important will just fall into oblivion, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Remembering is so much more of a psychotic activity than forgetting.
Still, some things are VERY important to us. You're the only judge of value in your own little universe.
I'm limiting this discussion to that small percentage of things that are truly important, and still end up not getting done. They won't be forgotten, but people will rationalize three thousand and two reasons why they can't do it, won't do it, shouldn't try it. Rationalization is how people explain to themselves why they made a bad decision instead of a good one, it's like the antics of child: "no dad, I need these snickers because... they're red!"
If you're rationalizing failure, a good alternative is to look for examples that contradict your stupid rationalizations. You're not huge on YouTube because you can't afford that expensive camera? Try looking for big youtubers with inexpensive apparati. Can't get laid because you're ugly/poor/don't own a car/don't know what to say/nerdy? Look around for people just like you that are getting laid. If you can't find them, look for people who started off in your position and made it.
Real life examples are great because they are undeniable.
Think about Stephen Hawkings, dude.
