Digital Pratik - Digital Marketing & Personal Branding Consultant

I want to make a good life, be productive, but I don't know how to do that?

As a keynote speaker and a social media influencer, I get to talk and interact with young talented youth all the time.

And I feel very grateful and thankful for that.

I get to know how the future of our nation (youth) are actually doing in their life.

And I realize that some of them are doing exponentially great but some young minds struggle to find their flow of life.

If you are a young mind or you know some young minds I want you to check out this conversation wherein I talk with a 19-year-old guy regarding his passion, inconsistencies, and lack of motivation.

Transcript:

Questioner - So I want to make a life, a good life, and be productive by doing what I love. But I don't know how to find that.

Digital Pratik - You don't find it. 

Questioner - I am trying to. 

Like I used to read novels for around 6 to 7 months. 

Used a lot of redevelopment but still, I try to find it.

Digital Pratik - I used to read a lot.

I used to read The Secret, The Power, The Magic. But nahi hota.

You have to give time.

See, you have to understand.

You have to change your mindset and thinking pattern that when you are jumping into any kind of study it requires some time.

Same way if you are trying to change results in your life right now it is revolving around some kind of studies that you have to apply in your life. 

It might be new learning into mental fitness, it is learning about being productive, it is learning about being fit, it is learning about being good with your girlfriend in your relationship.

It is so many things.

Which is learning but you are trying to figure that out very soon. You are 19.

In my entire 20's I had 3 depressions.

If I was able to figure out before that toh mereko depressions nahi aate and at the same point in time, if I would have stopped myself on the depression and just ponder over ki mere sath hi kyu hota hai, mere sath hi kyu hota hai then I wouldn't have been standing over here.

You have to just, you have to give time.

Questioner - I am giving. But still.

Digital Pratik - You are not giving.

You are thinking that you are giving time in 24 hours.

I am asking you to give me time for the next 10 years. 

Questioner - okay. But how would I handle other people?

Digital Pratik - Why you want to handle other people.

You don't handle it.

You just have to live and accept a couple of things.

See the reason why I took 3 drops is that I was not able to handle the pressure or the family responsibilities and all those things for the first two instances and that's the reason why I went to college again.

If I was so found in my first drop itself I wouldn't have gone there.

Tu samaj..

Even I was thinking ki kya karu, kya karu.

There was nothing.

I have been through the worst days of my life.

You can never imagine the day which I had or the days which I now have.

You don't know family.

You don't know my responsibilities.

You are only knowing the person whom you are seeing on Tik-Tok, Instagram or somewhere and then you are meeting me in person and then you realize ki sala bhenchod yeh to vahi ek hi banda hai aise hi baat kar raha hai yeh 

I'm not trying to act over here something else.

You know when I say f*** f***, mein bhenchod bolta hu Hindi me.

Gujarati mein bhi jaise eni mane nikal gaya na.

I am that guy.

You just have to be you And keep on leaving your life like, I am telling you you have to give a couple of years of time not a couple of hours of time.

This is so of a good quote.

Questioner - Yes. But still.

The people around me or the environment I am in, I am not able to handle that patience. 

Digital Pratik - Then fuck people.

Questioner - Yes. But

Digital Pratik - Are you talking about your girlfriend or your family?

Questioner - No, no, no.

I am talking about the environment I am living here now.

Digital Pratik - You said that you are leaving here alone.

Questioner - Yes but still like work, coming college, and all these things.

Digital Pratik - What is the college doing back to you?

Questioner - No college is not doing anything.

But still, the people are here.

Like I used to feel that fear inside of me where I was standing talking to you.

I was a bit nervous because of all these people.

Digital Pratik - It happens. It used to happen to me. 

Questioner - that is what I'm saying to change it.

Digital Pratik - Dekh mereko agar daru peeni hai abhi yaha par, toh agar pehli bar pee raha hu na toh thodi kadvi lagegi.

Lekin voich darue agar har roz peeunga na toh mujhe meethi lagni shuru ho jayegi.

Agar mereko daru peeni hai toh.

Samaj raha hai tu.

Like you have to do more.

You have to do more things related to practical life which we are living

Nothing else.

Why do you now know that if you want to stand up and go outside that door you have to stand up and go outside that door?

Paida hua tha tab nahi malum tha na.

Questioner - Sometimes I feel very good that anyway I am doing…..

Digital Pratik - That is life. Life cannot be good. Life has to be good and bad then it is life.

Because it is only good, tu ghanta kuch nahi kar raha hai

Please understand.

I love Red Bull. I know I have to take just 2 of it a day. She was only asking me right ki you can have more and I was like no, 2 a day.

Now just because I love and they are providing it for free I cannot have.

Me pagal nahi hu. Alright.

You have to understand this only.

See I am giving you practical examples only.

Me koi kitabi keeda nahi hai.

Because now I don't read.

I used to read and I wanted to grow myself and to change something over here. 

Now it is f****** set over here that I don't give a damn about any book.

Questioner - That's what I want to change.

Digital Pratik - Yes but that is where you have to focus on your voices.

Why are you giving your energy to somebody else's voice is right now where you already know Me kya baat kar raha hu,

kyu me GaryVee ka t-shirt pehen raha hu,

kyu me hardcore believer hu GaryVee k principles ka,

Kyu mere ko Indian GaryVee bolte hai.

I am never saying that I am Indian GaryVee.

People are giving me respect.

But how are they giving respect?

When they give me respect. 

Questioner - When they find that you have really given them value.

Digital Pratik - When I come to stage and meet in person to somebody and at that point in time if somebody tells me that you are fake,

I would treat my loss.

But still to this point in time nobody has told me that. Because I don't do stuff like that

You are already saying to me that I know how to do this and that and that, I am a practitioner.

Me koi amir khandan se nahi aya hu ki jisne team built kiya hai, videographers hai, Drock hai.  I am doing dad and then training people to do that.

He is holding this camera for the first-ever time in his life.

Jo mere Instagram pe black strip wale posts dekh rahe ho na, woh ye baccha bana raha hai abhi. 

Questioner - I used to make my content also.

Digital Pratik - The problem with you is you are not doing it consistently over a period of time.

Questioner - No, I am doing it.

Digital Pratik - Not the content thing. 

I'm talking about mindset thing. 

Questioner - Yes, that is why I am here to talk to you.

Digital Pratik - Listen to my podcast, GaryVee's podcast every single day, again and again even if the podcasts are over.

Questioner - Yes, I do, I do.

Digital Pratik -  You are trying to go into five different mentors. Pick one feed his voice.

Questioner - Yes, I love listening to Jay Shetty and you. 

I used to listen to only two podcasts of yours and Jay Shetty and videos of you and Jay Shetty.

Digital Pratik -  How long you have been listening to.

Questioner - I have been listening for some 3-4 months now.

Digital Pratik -  3-4 months?

The point is, once again I am telling you.

I am asking you to provide your time into something positive for a couple of years but a couple of hours.

3-4 months of consuming my content won't do anything because you have lived some 19 f****** years based on somebody's else's opinion.

Questioner - Yes.

Digital Pratik -  So how do you expect 3-4 months of positive will replace your negativity or paradigms?

Questioner - But the problem is how can I live my life on my own basis.

My dad is not allowing me to leave it on my own.

Digital Pratik -  Ha so it is, okay, it is okay.

That's what happened to me.

I lived on their terms for the first and second drops, I went to college and tried to do that because I was not strong enough to take my call.

You are not right now.

You are not right now strong enough to go outside and take your call and live on streets and then not having any pocket money or something. 

You don't have those balls right now.

Gurda hona chahie karne ke liye.

Questioner - wahi toh!

Digital Pratik -  Alright. So third point in time I had that gurda somehow.

Now everybody is not the same.

You are 19. 

YOU ARE 19.

You have to give time. Alright.

You have to give the time it's in like, see I always dreamt of doing martial arts, karate. 

Me abhi bhi nahi kar paya na, even though I am into Calisthenics and all.

Mera abhi bhi voh dream hai.

I was a choreographer so I used to be a dancer.

I used to see this DID show Dance India Dance.

Mere ko bhi Tv per aana tha. Nahin aaya Na.

Does that mean that I am failing? No.

I am living my life, I am figuring out and now people are calling me.

I am already on TV kind of thing on the internet pe hu.

See when you live your life, things which you might have missed in your past might come to you.

Plain and simple example.

Star Plus or Star India pe ye jo dance shows aate hai, usme you might have seen a couple of parents jinke bacche dance shows me hote hai

But a couple of them said, "main mera sapna pura nahin kar paya isliye main apne bacche ko dance mein itna aage badhaya". 

That judges tell them ki now you dance.

Unka sapna pura hua na.

And they are actually more than happy to do that v/s agar unhone pahle kiya hota toh.

See it's not about not dreaming big it is being practical about chasing the dream.

It might, aapne socha hoga ki main 5 sal mein dream achieve kar lunga, par kabhi nahin hoga.

 Questioner - I never thought that.

Digital Pratik -  You are subconsciously thinking that. That's the reason you are thinking that apni life apne terms pe kaise jiyu.

You cannot.

You right now cannot.

Amitabh Bachchan ji ke papa ki ek bahut acchi poetry hai.

Unhone kaha hai ki "Mann ka ho toh acha. Na ho toh aur bhi badhiya" because then it is happening because of some divine force which will never think bad about you.

So when you know all these things the problem is not that you are not getting motivated.

The problem is you are not doing anything about that motivation.

About which GaryVee always says, you don't have to get motivated. You have to do something about that motivation.

You have to execute.

Main kya bol raha hai simple language

Learn. Apply. Share!

Don't just learn and share.

You cannot just learn to sit and visualize, you cannot just take a picture of 1lac rupees check on your wall and then visualize 1 lac aayega,  1 lac aayega.

Ghanta nahi aayega. Thik hai.

Ye sab mein kiya hua hai.

Yah sab main Karta tha. Alright.

Sab kuchh kiya hua hai.

10 rupees ke note ka picture lagane ka. Use per likhane ka I am a money magnet, I am a money magnet. Aadha ghanta khada rehta tha bolata rehta tha affirmations.

But then affirmations don't work if you don't work.

Aap affirmations 15 minutes bol rahe ho lekin pure din ke jo bhi 23-24 ghante hai usme kya kar rahe ho aap. That will manifest the affirmations.

Because affirmations will train your mind to attract opportunities. But once the opportunity is there are you executing upon that.

No..

That's why you think that the manifestation nahin ho raha hai kam, affirmations kam nahin ho raha hai, me demotivate ho raha hai. Hoga hi na bhai.

You cannot learn about sex.

You can only learn and practice sex.

Questioner - (chuckles)

Digital Pratik -  main isliye aise extreme point ke examples deta hu.

Why I talk about boobs and six packs over here. Because you guys understand that.

Tum Ko samajh mein aata hai.

If I go to an older` demographic, jaha par main professionals ke saath baat kar raha hoon.

I won't talk about boobs and abs.

I will talk about how you can sit correctly if you want to sit correctly and not have back pains in your office for long long hours then you have to do stretching like this every single hour.

Meri language Badal jayega.

But all these things come when.

When you practice over the years.

Mera 2014 ka videos dekho

Questioner - Yes I have seen.

Digital Pratik -  kya bol raha hai usme mein.

Samaj me aaraha hai.

So you have to give time. Alright.

Chalo. God bless you.

P.S. Who am I & why you should listen to me?
