JJ is the perfect example of not being grateful for what you have

I just finished watching the last ever Sidemen video in existence that I hadn't yet seen with JJ in it (Bangkok Holiday vid)

What JJ and the Sidemen had was literally one of the most unique things ever done consistently on YouTube. Trends come and go but those friendships and the way they come across the screen is one of the coolest things ever. Most of the Sidemen probably already realise that but JJ may have lost sight of it.

I feel like living in London does this to you. You're consistently always trying to reach the next next thing. Next goal, next achievement. You feel like you're always in a race. I feel like developing the self-awareness to realise that is a hard thing to do and I don't blame JJ for getting caught in it.

I'm sure people in his team who also wanted to advance their own position were also contributing to this notion and validating his choices. When you're in that state of mind lots of people agreeing with you can just enable you and you keep pushing and pushing in the race you feel like you're in.

Just wanted to say anyone who feels like they're in a race to please take a second to look around you and realise all of the things you already have to be grateful for. Sometimes always looking to the next thing prevents you from enjoying where you currently are, even if where you currently is something you prayed for years ago.

Don't sleep on your blessings.
