Recently, the world has been a dark and depressing place. For many, it seems as if everything is bad in the world and things can never get better. However, Senior Aztec Tyler DeSilva is trying to change that by spreading positivity and happiness. Ask anyone who knows Tyler and they will tell you he is one of the funniest, most optimistic people you will ever meet. Luckily, puts this personality of his to good use. Tyler has recently been posting motivational speeches on his Snapchat story in hopes to get people to have a more positive outlook on life. Tyler stated that, “it started out as a bit of a joke,” but he received responses from people who said that his speeches were helping them in their daily lives. He seems truly serious about his mission. As Tyler grew in his following he realized that he had to come up with a good name. Tyler explained how his friend Maddy gave him the idea for the name moTYvation, an obvious play on words for his name and his mission, and it stuck. When asked what his goal is, Tyler replied, “We live in a cruel world with so much negativity. I just want to spread positivity no matter how big or small it is.” He made it quite clear in his interview that he believes that you only need two things to go far in life: consistency and discipline. He claims that with those two traits you can do anything you could ever dream of. Tyler says that he wants his viewers to know that they’re not alone in whatever they are going through, and if anyone is feeling down he is going to be there to help them get through it and come out better than they were before. At the end of the interview with him he said that he wanted to give The Spear readers an exclusive piece of moTYvation. So directly from the mouth of Tyler DeSilva: “Stay happy. Life will be filled with many obstacles, but we need to learn that we can overcome them. And with that being said, they can’t be overcome if you’re feeling down. You need to have some positivity in your life, because without positivity you’ll go nowhere. You need to be happy in whatever you do, because if you aren’t happy, then what’s the point?” If you want to find some moTYvation in your own life, you can find Tyler on Snapchat:@tylerdesilva03 Instagram:@tylerdesilvaaa and TikTok:@tytoofly_03.
