Me: "Ooo I like the tilt shift effect!"
*Looks up the lens*
Good Lord that's a $1,900 lens...
ReplayStationShow there's a reason I called it an "investment". 🙂
For me "investment" is code for "stare longingly at it something I'll never be able to justify buying"
If it's Canon and got a red ring it cost good amount :P
For real. I'd need to invest in a better camera body first. My 60D isn't cutting it anymore. We could write it off under my wife's photography business... gotta spend money to make money, right? Really enjoying your vlogs, Burnie. Keep it up!
Good lens > Camera :D
Whenever I find myself relying on motivation or inspiration to get work done I come here to remind myself. Thanks for this one Burnie. It kinda changed my life.
ironically that motivation doesn't exist speech got me super motivated
Burnie sharing similar advice on a Podcast is what got me kickstarted. From 19 with no direction to 22 with almost a million subs I have this philosophy to thank. Burnie the GOAT
Good stuff, Lannan!
Love u, ur a bloody legend!
Did a dog type this?
Lazaup
I only just saw this comment now welp you now have more subs then RT main channel
"The trick is not how to find motivation; the trick is figuring out how to work without it."
This is truly a quote that I will hold firm in my mind from here on out. Thank you.
I totally agree with this. When I feel anxious to start something I just force myself to push through it, even though it's unpleasant sometimes to start, once you get going it's less scary than you thought. - Fellow filmmaker
"How I stay motivated" video opens with Ashley. Nuff said.
This is legitimately excellent advice.There are plenty of times when I have motivation or inspiration right when I need it (an upcoming conference deadline, paper revisions, or even an idea for a new project), but it's discipline that can get you to keep working through the tough days. I'm not quite there with the discipline, but I'll get there eventually. Thank you, Burnie for this post.
Salvor Hardin I know! Now I feel so motivated to get things done! Oh wait...
Gotta build a strong FOUNDATION amirite?
+ukelele 8 Use it! Use the motivation you have now to put in place a system to help you stay disciplined in the future. The point was to not rely on motivation, not to ignore it :)
Brother Darkness I'm so proud of you.
yah he made some good points
I have so much respect for Burnie and what he has helped create. I put him as one of my favorite people in RoosterTeeth. his knowledge, work, and wisdom always gets to me. Keep doing what you do Burnie.
Burnie just said what my dad has been telling me for nearly 20 years, but for the first time I actually listened and it actually made sense in my head.
Thanks Burnie!
I swear to god Burnie's logic behind Discipline/Motivation is flawless. This is the reason why I get up and go to the gym 6 days a week. The reason why I drive to go get something for someone when I'm in the middle of a game. The reason why I watch what I eat. Learning how to work without motivations, and streaks.
These Burnie vlogs are quickly becoming my favorite RT videos
Doesn't this mean Burnie is going to be regularly missing from the RT podcast for a few months??! :(((
Iker Arechiga He'll be back in Austin the occasional time id almost guarantee, so he'll make the odd one or two
Burnie flys like every week, and id assume he'd be in austin several times a month. If he cant make it for the RT podcasts I hope he shows up in more FH videos.
Now Burnie is officially done with podcast with him stepping down :(
I love that we get to see these vlogs...... but with you being in L A. Are you going to be on the RT podcast anymore
Bob Joe it's not a permanent move.
maybe we`ll get pongo in the podcast instead of burnie
Zaq Kickasola so? Is burnie going to fly to austin once every week to be on the rt podcast? I dont think so
fish man it wouldn't surprise me, actually. At least a few times
he's done similar things except fly to LA instead of austin.
Burnie has moved to LA for his toughest project yet, being Adam Kovics dad.
Tiltshift shots makes my knees weak. They are so damn good.
BURNIE you are an inspiration dude :) keep up the awesome!
Burnie, this is why I'm a fan of you on the podcast. You always break things down to a practical and applicable level. There is no way that anyone can feel motivated every day of their life, or even every week of their life. But that organization and discipline will really pull someone through a task.
We obviously don't know him or anything, but from out here, burnie has changed so so much over the years.
Emotions are fleeting. So many people miss this incredibly important point to life!
I really loved Burnie talking to the barista about podcasts! I love spontaneous interviews of random people. I feel you're see a slice of a person life.
Thanks for the great advice Burnie! Hope all is well and stays well in LA. Keep us updated. We'll miss you.
Burnie is honestly one of the only people I can connect with via similar opinions and way of thinking.
I always thought the motivation for Burnie, even if he doesn't believe (I don't either), came naturally when you are a part of this company that is basically a moving gear with you in the middle. Since the nature around you is moving, so are you.
now i know what to speak to my unit team about this week for our summer goals. Discipline and how to rely on it. Thank you very much Burnie.
Having gone to therapy several separate times for help with my ADD (and diagnosis of it), I came to the same conclusion about motivation: it isn't the root of the problem, it's just how it rears itself. The root problem for me is self-discipline, I have troubles getting myself to do anything. Once I realized that, I realized a lot of what Burnie said in this video comes with it. I realized that, as much as I hate even the idea of it, I function best on a schedule.
Really been struggling on how to stay motivated recently. All through my first year of college I was watching a lot of motivational videos that I used to keep me pumped to stay proactive. Burnie just flipped my switch in my head. My whole life I have been trying to rely on motivation as an emotion and I would come through days where I thought "what's the point?" I realize now I need more self discipline rather than relying on those "short bursts" of emotional motivation.
I want to be a successful percussionist someday. I believe that those words of wisdom from you Burnie will help a lot on my adventure. Thank you man.
I like Burnie's comments on discipline, specifically "the streak." I read an article about a man who has been running for over 800 consecutive days. He said something similar that it took the discipline of getting up and just making yourself do it that has allowed him to continue running. Good luck on this new chapter Burnie!
This reminds me of the quote by Chuck Close,"Inspiration is for amateurs -- the rest of us just show up and get to work" As an artists, this resonates with me, and what you said. It is important to be disciplined enough to get done what you need to everyday, not just when you feel like it. Otherwise, nothing would ever happen.
When Burnie said, "What does motivation look like?" I thought he was gonna lift his shirt and show off his six pack XD
That's the situation, not the motivation!
Cheezburger861 true
I think these vlogs have become my favorite part of rooster teeth. Love what you're doing Burnie, keep it going.
There's a reason you inspire so many people, and this is one of them. Thanks Burnie!
perfecto exactly what was needed
I desperately want to somehow run into Burnie. That would make me even happier than I was when my English teacher got fired this week.
That actually made a ton of sense. Thanks for the deep words, Burnie.
Burnie's vlogs always give me Vlogbrothers vibes
I have been struggling with how to get motivated for years. I am not disciplined and have never made the connection that being disciplined and following a routine or a list every day can actually build up "motivation" or the sense to want to keep that drive of continuing the pattern everyday.
Thank you so much Burnie for that insight! I really needed it!
Oh Burnie, tilt shift and some vignette, you're spoiling us.
Burnie "Motivation" Burns you are an awesome guy, keep being you.
Burnie honestly best real talk vlog thing ever! You have changed my outlook on getting things done and what that means. I hope you read this and see that your life lessons has shown someone else something. Now back to my to do lists, thank you!
Burnie I've followed you for years and those were the most needed words I've ever heard so thank you so much
I would honestly be happy if these vlogs started coming out more and more.
Burnie is like a fun genius. god these vlogs are refreshing. never change Bernie never change.
i noticed burnie didn't mention cow chop... i wonder if he is scared lol
Ye that's something i noticed, i feel like we don't see the main people at RT talk about Cowshop the same way they did about Funhaus when it started and even now. It's like CowShop is a part of Rooster Teeth but at the same time it isn't you know?
I think the reason why is that Funhaus is a part of rooster teeth similar to how Achievement Hunter is while cowchop is just part of the let's play family more similar to the creatures. so they don't technically own Cow Chop.
thekiddlightning I think it's like how you deal with a dog that your parents own that is super cute and fun... But it's /not/ good with kids and it bites sometimes.
My goodness those tilt shift shots were nice. These vlogs are really becoming a highlight of my week now.
Really did need this. I'm a third-semester freshman at UofL studying mechanical engineering, and even though it isn't a 'creative'-type major, I find myself sometimes without a desire to learn more; and unfortunately, this lack of discipline has bled over into my physical/mental health as well. I've found myself without discipline, and that has led to a severe lack of confidence. This really has helped enlighten me to do better in my studies and to learn how to devote time to certain things in my life. Thank you for this video
I'm watching Burnie talk about cultivating discipline and forcing yourself to do things when you don't have the motivation...while I'm procrastinating from this 3,500 word essay I have to write
no14sure you can do it
Welcome to LA, Burnie, I hope you enjoy your stay
That was one of the best paraphrases I've ever seen made ever.
Excellent stuff. I really like that mentality. I find appreciation also really helps with motivation and discipline.
Burnie Burns, you are an inspiration to me. Thank you.
I dance for two hours every day and I always lose motivation, but it is the will to keep going is what makes me improve.
I'm fairly new to RT but I think I can safely say that Burnie is a well rounded cool dude.
I say something similar to my tutees: Motivation is nothing without discipline.
I've been seriously lacking motivation lately, so I'm definitely gonna give this a shot. Thanks Burnie!!!!!
School of Life. That YT channels is very thought provoking.
I absolutely love these vlogs! Thank you for taking the time to make them!
Bernie thank you so much for making these videos. Love them all!
I can agree with that.
Discipline first, motivation second.
Tilt-Shift YES, what an awsome effect
Those dank DOF shots though. It's my new guilty pleasure.
Damn Burnie nailed it with his motivation spiel
Bernie.. thank you for making this. i dont even watch vlogs that often. honestly it was out of sheer boredom that i clicked on this video.. But i really have never had anyone shed this kinda light on what good motivation really is. I will be using this video to help myself and others that i care for in life. Again. Thank you so so much.
Wow... Burnie. That really helped. I've never even heard of that perspective on motivation and it's actually something that gives me hope to accomplishing my goals
Lady Donum I think it's because it's finally something real and honest. most "motivational" stuff out there gives off that feeling that it's just some spirit that you have to wake inside of you where this says no, it's really learning how to get it down without that spirit which I agree is a million times more inspiring
Never stop doing these! I absolutely love them!
Burnie this might be the best video on motivation I've ever seen, there's so many random crap videos about how to get inspired but what you've explained here really resonates with me, I'm going to download everything you talked about and hopefully build up abit of that sweet motivation, thanks man. Wish me luck
I'm really digging the vlog series Burnie. Great explanation and perspective on very common feelings and everyday experiences. It has become a favorite weekly video of mine.
Hey Burnie I've been working out trying to shed some lbs lately, this morning I woke up and really didn't want to go exercise, and then I remembered this video and decided to forget about motivation and have discipline, and go work out so thanks a bunch
Funhaus is Burnie's favorite kid.
These are getting me through a very stressful part of my life. Burnie, you're such an inspiration. Thank you
I needed this Burnie thanks so much!
You're an inspiration to us all!
Love this video. Dare I say it motivated me. Keep up the good work! Been watching y'all since day one!!
I should sit down with a cup of coffee while watching these. It would feel great.
Love this vlog, absolutely needed this right now thanks Burnie ✌🏻👊🏻
Thanks for sharing a bit about your work flow and drive. I dig it.
I got all happy when he sat down with the coffee.
The song in the back is by smino
Honestly, your take on motivation is just what I needed to hear. For the past couple of months, I've been trying to get myself together and I didn't know how. I always wondered, "How do successful people find the motivation to do what they do?" I'll try taking the determination approach now. Thanks, Bernie!
The song at the end of every vlog puts me in such a good mood
I really find this topic about motivation super interesting, especially because there is a lot of psychology behind this. The special thing about motivation is, that it helps you to do hard things in periods of time. So it is completely correct what Burnie is talking about, you really shouldn't rely on motivation itself. What you can use motivation for, is in the beginning, when you start something new, that's usually when the motivation is the highest (for most people), and use that motivation to create a habit for that specific tasks. When Burnie is talking about discipel, then it is actually about breaking down overall goals, down to smaller sub-goals. This helps the mind to better start and finish smaller task and with the combination of gamification (by not breaking his streak) does he actually both give and remove motivation.
Awesome Burnie!
Hey Burnie,
Loved this vlog greatly
I am going through a bumpy patch at the moment, trying to get my life sorted and on track with what I want to study for the future and what pathway to go on. And recently have been struggling with "with finding motivation" as other people have told me.
But this really opened my eyes to what motivation really is and discipline as well.
I know you may not read this, but just wanted to pass on my thanks and appreciation for what you do. And to say that watching this vlog really helped me sort some things out.
Thanks
Great vlog Burnie! You said some things I really needed to hear. Thank you
I'm starting a podcast this summer and just meeting with people and scheduling meet and greets with people have been helping me a lot.
Thank you Burnie. That was actually very informative. I've never thought of it that way. I've been following your work for many years and I got to say. You've taught me a lot about how life works in areas I was never taught. So Thank you for everything keep it up.
As always an excellently, informative vlog. Some great thoughts about motivation that I certainly hadn't considered before. Well done, and good luck with the LA project.
Thanks Burnie! Just what I needed to help me get through the rest of my GCSEs.
This is something I needed today, Burnie. Thanks.
Tilt shift lens was worth it just for that intro shot of the building being made dam that was beautiful, man these are so fun visually to watch
Burnie I have to be honest I hate vlogs. That being said I can not stop watching "you" vlog. I don't know why but you are just interesting enough for me to enjoy these vlogs. So thank you.
Great video Burnie. Keep em' coming!
Best view on motivation I've ever heard. Thanks Burnie!
The blur affect makes the time lapse look like little toys
Thank you for the insight Burnie, I enjoyed this vlog a lot!!
Ironically, this blog made me feel very motivated
I most definitely needed this advice, Burnie. Thank you.
I've noticed my form of getting stuff done is that I absorb myself in what I'm doing. I often will write around 6-8 chapters of a book I want to write or get the rough draft of a short story or animation all at once. Then my issue I have is that I'm always so full of ideas and things I want to do so I never really ever finish any of them. My attention span is about as durable as a twig.
I think that was some of the most valuable advice I've heard in a long time. Thank you.
Great video burnie, really needed to hear this
Burnie is awesome!! I also agree, motivation is fleeting and makes no sense. Stay discipline!
Burnie is now vlogging like John Hill and I love it.
Thank you, sir, for the encouraging advice on personal productivity.
thank you, Burnie, for giving legitimately useful advice
