The most powerful effect music has on people is the ability to inspire them into action. People like to play EDM to get themselves pumped up at the gym. Movies have music in the background to evoke certain emotions, which inspires people to think deeper about the context of the movie. These are just a few examples of how the right music can change the way you think.

Most people like to build playlists to fit certain occasions. In this case, we’re giving you songs that will inspire you to live better. No more moping around on the couch and blaming mommy and daddy on why your life sucks. It’s time to confront your issues.

The best way to start the process of getting your life together is to take baby steps. Don’t go quitting your miserable job or anything crazy. Start taking on a more positive perspective on life and we guarantee these songs will help you make these changes. And if all else fails, go on Amazon and buy yourself some self-help books because boy, you need help.
