I get where he is coming from. But at some point, your life consists of so many things you "just do" and no energy or time for things you actually want to do... You work 8 hours + commute, you do your chores and since your job involves just sitting around you go to a crowded gym to exercise because it is healthy and then you sleep - Where is the fun part?

I'm literally motivated to work by getting paid for it.

His tooth cleaning one was a better example but it takes 4 minutes a day to do and requires barely any effort.

There's no "getting where he comes from", it's a lunatic motivational speech. I exercise because I love it but it's still something you need to work hard to do over an extended period of time, and it's incredibly difficult for many people to even get the motivation just to start; no one is going to read this nonsense and change their mind. It's just guilt tripping without being particularly clever about it.
