Learning Task No. 2

Direction: Watch Jay Shetty’s Motivational Video on YouTube titled “Before You lose
Someone.” Listen closely to it and complete the worksheet below.

(Note: Go to YouTube. Type in Jay Shetty. Watch the video as shown in the screenshot.)

1. Listening to the Introduction

Motivational Video Topic:

The storyline talks about the value of time. The cardinality of spending your time with your loved
ones and living your life to its fullest. In the fulfillment of the 4-minute video story, the creator, Jay
Shetty employed the situation of the COVID-19 patient(s), to be specific, their conditional difficulties.
On the other hand, we can recognize the challenge amidst intimate relationships---the hope, the
promise, the love itself.

Main point/Contention of Motivational Video:

 The video is entitled Before You Lose Someone. A story of partners, one with COVID-19. It is a
narrative of hope, consistent love, and death. The main notion of the motivational video is to help us
realize and be reminded that time is not just simply time---it holds moments that meant to be cherished.

Purpose/Goal of the Motivational Video : 

The very objective of the video is not to please, but to educate and open the minds of the people.
It's all for inculcating the importance of time, and of every moment we spend. Most people be living
their lives with their own world, spending time with their selves instead of the people around them. But
this is selfish. This is insensitive. The video tickles our hearts to be more warmhearted. Be more
socially active. Be more humane. From the deliverance of Jay Shetty, one of his aims is to move us and
helps us bear in mind that we need to move now. The video is a reminder that we are running out of
time, and our days are unpredictable. Thus, we ought to cherish the moments we have and our time
until it lasts.

Organization/Style used : (Explain how did Jay Shetty establish his motivational episode to the
viewers/listeners. Explain his own organization or style to make it more moving and worth engaging.)

Jay Shetty did an intelligent concept in the production of the video. The first thing I noticed, he
made a good choice in choosing partners to be the central eye of the story---making it more engaging
for most people as it's quite relatable, particularly for lovers down there. The video also screams
relevance and timeliness as it exhibits no just the pandemic we are facing as of the moment, but also
the real struggle and agony this pandemic has caused to the majority, in general.

The script went well organized. There's a systematic execution of ideas. The 3Cs can be
observed---there's (1) coherence and (2) clarity in and between each passage. There's (3) concreteness
also as there are numeral data presented, turning out the video more informative and reliable to the
public.

2. Listening to the Main Discussion/Presentation.

Important aspects of the motivational video topic:

There are two philosophies I got from watching the video. Philosophies that hooked and moved
me. Wisdom I can call and I can apply on.

• [Buddha] "The real struggle is, we think we have time."

We, people, are so complacent about spending less of our time on truly important things. We
commonly think our time is endless. We procrastinate very much and set aside things from the priority
list. But that's a toxic human nature. Time runs and so does the opportunities. Moments are not
cyclical, it gets old and vanished. The struggle is legit real if one day we wake up with missed chances,
chances we can't hold back and redeem at all.
• "We don't know when our last time will be our last ever."

Time knows no reversibility. The moments along time we spend cannot be grabbed back
anymore. We should no throw away mean words to people's hearts. We should not let our anger get
into people's nerves. We should not let hatred spreads. We should stop developing fights with people.
Instead, we should cast nothing but love, positivity, kindness, respect, and good times to everyone. We
must continue loving and understanding people before it's too late; before we lost them.

Summary of Jay Shetty’s Episode : (Through your own words, summarize the episode on the basis of
your understanding.) 

It all started about a couple, living their intimate world as husband and wife. Rachel, the wife,
looks fine and optimistic and healthy and productive, so she goes with her day as if it's her last. Until
one day, Rachel developed a cough and high fever; later found as Covid-19. She is obligated not to
leave the hospital and stay there up until she recovered. The whole idea of her being isolated is tough.
She's separated from her husband, family, and friends. To relieve the sorrow, her husband would do
some face-time to see her virtually and visit the hospital to drop off gifts and things for her. Their
bright minds thought she will recover sooner, but the opposite idea happens. Covid-19 gave her a
cardiac arrest. It's the most backbreaking challenge her husband experienced. The deep lamentation he
felt is none from the adversities he had before. The following days may be sad for him, but as to what
Rachel reminds him: "continue living." Keep going and cherish the seconds you have with the people
around you while you still can.

Moral Lesson/Universal Truth: (Explain it in a richer sense)

One thing I learned about Jay Shetty's Before You Lose Someone, is the need of spending our
time wisely. People's lives are unpredictable and death is something that's inevitable. No one can
foretell when will be our last eat, our last walk to the earth, our last live. Considering seizing every
moment as if it's our last one. Therefore, we should not ever waste your time being mad ungrateful with
the people around us. We must be thankful for their presence and that they came across our paths.
Every day we should radiate love, respect, and kindness for time is something we cannot buy, yet we
can try.
