 Welcome back to UNFINISHED where we get to finish UNFINISHED business. In this episode we are tackling mental health issues and our third question today we'd like to know why is it that young people are out here vibrant on their household yet they are unrecognized at the same time they are not appreciated. Let us know why this is the case. I think there are and I also think there are not because you will find places where money talks. You will have all the papers, you will read, you have all the papers, you have the skills but the money must talk, corruption, I really hope corruption ends in Kenya. So yeah, money will talk and yeah those people who are appreciated because of money and sometimes you find you will find connections, you will find a place to go to school, so yeah. As for me it depends with where you come from because uta pata is a certain place because me me see kupata school feasts at the campus or anything of sort then I can't or something what you want on a comma they will start judging you so like it really depends with with the most people think that you can see be a shower it's either you're broke now it's called form for leavers or when you have a kupata school feasts to when they learn about some more they are really affected and when I can and I come I want to in that situation. My work experience like to nothing was on as I think you know yeah I've worked yeah basically I've worked you see the overload of work you see nowadays the range of employment the range of salary they always put 20,000 it doesn't matter whatever work you're doing so the range of they always put 20,000 15,000 so when you're earning 20,000 NSF is here NHIF is here so all these things are being deducted when you're deducted you see you still maybe you have a family you need to split this money to I mean to cater for everything so when you're at work the only salary you are given the tax is a lot the overload tax is a lot but the salary nail it is 20,000 from January to up to the next year the following year it is just constant 20,000 so I think the pressure come from there. So perspective you have to be the one who can find and the best to know if I'm not say me different so I say I'm not so judgment how are you welcome into new ideas so we don't wanna I'm say honey get honey get honey get so you know in a lead to I say wanna appreciate you especially young people so I guess people should be open to new ideas new Joe which is in a move we talked about miss Jiu Jitsu you know and so I understand that to put a say I'm say I'm a good job you say I'm a little bit still I'm into a quangie but in a it's a july way you know it's a july one to cook. I mean as I say my but last year I was a change I'm saying I don't want to be dragged away. I want to go back to the place. But I want to change. I want to adapt to change. I want to convey to people that I have the opportunity to do it. Not that much. I enjoy my own experience and jobs. I want to take you as a joke. I want to become a professional. They don't give you much respect. You know, in this country, when I run, so many people don't know what to do. They have experience. And you get to know what to do. But they think that we as young people don't have experience or rather we don't know what we are doing. Because when we want to hustle, because we want to go and party, we want to go and get ourselves some closet, but it is not the real thing. Some of us are really trying to, like, boost our lives and see what we will have to get in the future. So, they don't want to appreciate us because they feel like most of them think that. Yeah. No one will ever appreciate what you do. It's just to love what you do and do it with passion. That is my opinion about that. If you wait for somebody to appreciate you, like you were working on it and stuff, no one will do that. What do you think about the environment that you are in? The environment matters a lot, because and also the people in that environment, whether they'll be like, you know, you can do it. At least, you can do it. Actually, I can say, many people do appreciate, you know, talent, for example, and they'll be like, you can do it. Like, you know, that's what we are trying to say. You know, you can do it. Basically, not that much, because nowadays, like most incidences, it's just the young people who are doing the negative things. So, like, I don't think they're appreciated that much. For me, I'd say they are and they are not in that. Okay, we have said about the cow wash, like, let's say my dad, he goes and takes his calf to the cow wash, he'll appreciate that guy. Like, I'm just here personally as his child. I'll not appreciate that for anyone. So, you see, people are appreciated by maybe someone who you're serving. Yeah, just that. The rest of them don't know about you, they'll not appreciate you. Mostly, some of them are appreciated. Some of them are discouraged. Some of them are some who are dependent on connections, either who are the ones who support. At the end of the day, they are discouraged. So, I think the question is based on the how how you're used to living and how the people you're around. Some of them are used to work, but hardly the people around who are used to work. So, at the end of the day, they're supported. There's some mutes, like the young people who have talented, but they never got the chance to like, to show it to the world. It is said that 70% of a country's population is young people. So, young people are out here in big numbers. Chances are, the more we are, we might not be recognized, and because everybody is doing something that is being seen, and chances are you might not be appreciated the way you want to be appreciated. Now, hear it from me. If you're a young person out there and you're on your hustle and you're doing great things for yourself and for the betterment of your community, keep doing it. Do not wait for people to come and clap for you sister. Not many people are going to do that. They can only clap when they see you at the top, all successful and all. That's the only time they'll be there saying, I'm so proud of you. So, do yourself some justice right now and just take it upon yourself to go out there, hustle and hustle as if nobody's watching, okay? Because they are watching. Your enemies are watching and they are real. Wait until you are successful, you will see. You'll remember this episode. Our fourth question today we want to know, as much as young people are vibrant and energetic and they are out here, why do they doubt themselves much? Fear of unknown. That's a major thing that makes young people treat them with themselves and also many people actually even if you talk to many youths right now who are young, they'll be like I really don't know how my future will be like you know. I don't know whether I'll be successful or not. Yeah, but by such thoughts in their minds you find that they like and that stress actually and depression in a way. You doubt now, as we know there are qualifications, a job and society just to approve and it doesn't bring change in the society. So, most of the youth are coming down to grade you again. I think if there is a job like a camera or a cyber maybe and as a young person the job is visible like the day you're so busy what you're busy and maybe a lack of customer to pick a picture. So like and I estimate that there are people who are busy and they don't have money and they don't have a house maybe. So, this makes them underrated their work at the end of the day they are doubtful about their work. If there are people who are doubtful they don't have money they don't have money they don't feel comfortable about their work. So, if there are people who are doubtful find something to do. Well, majorly first it's from people not giving you the amount of energy that you need to go and do what you want to. Like, okay. For example, let me say and I hear that it takes 8 years. So, maybe my parents will tell me no that you can't you don't have enough money and you don't have enough money and you don't have enough money and you don't have money. Also, it's because of whatever you are doing there's somebody at the top and you'll find out that the many years they took to get at the top like if you don't have money you don't have the energy to do whatever you are but set your mind to. Negative attitude. Yeah, I think that's the major point. Negative attitude. Because you can just go to someone and we'll not just appreciate you but instead just give you some negative points then you just feel like you're so low to continue. Just say it's confidence. You know like I as a person I tend to compare myself with maybe joy because I know joy is I don't know I don't know anything so I just say like here of course I can't do medicine because maybe I didn't perform well in certain certain subjects. So as for me I go with confidence and believing in oneself like I can do it here or your tender there are many there are many students who fail hard to graduate or anything else. Most young people compare themselves with other people who are up there and apart from that they listen to the negative negative words. What do I say to myself? I say to myself I'm discouraged I'm down there because I'm the same they don't listen to that positive speech from other people they most of it I don't know I don't know what to say I don't know what to say I'm negative so if you don't know you're not succeeding you cannot have success when you have a negative mind. It's always when you are studying or when you're doing something you have just to believe in yourself. So basically doubting yourself it depends with the peer pressure where youthful age this someone who studied let's say our friend who is in University of Nairobi and we are doing the same course this person has got a job before me so I think yeah peer influence Most of us like to keep on your video there are some that you don't know you take it in different perspectives you have to know what if I do this and it backfires or what if I do this and it leads to failure so you get someone to settle down like you have qualms on it which is not right but I fear to step back from things that are right as vibrant and energetic young people still doubt themselves and the number one reason as to why they doubt themselves is I'll tell you this in Swahili Hakuna Pesa Kwan Fuku yani financial confidence zero, zero financial confidence that is why sometimes young people will be out there they do something which is so great something that has never been seen before but they end up doubting themselves and they give up at the end of it man you only could you waste listen if you do not have the financial confidence drop finances and uplift your confidence apply pressure when I say confidence apply pressure on that word confidence you need to boost your confidence levels as a young person so that you kill that doubt also affirmations affirming yourself every day that you are indeed amazing indeed you are meant to be here in this world you are meant to experience this beautiful world that God gave us okay yes think positive and do positive things chances are doubt is going to die so don't doubt God and of course do not doubt yourself yay we have come to the end of this show this is unfinished where we get to unfinished business it's about that time I say goodbye
