What movie does the phrase "You got this!" come from? And why does the phrase fill people with comfort?
In the 1970s, nobody said “You got this!”.
Then around 2000 people started saying it. Now you even see it as a motivational sign people can buy and hang up. You hear it in movies and TV shows.
But it must have originally come from a movie.
What movie was that?
And why does this cliché seem to comfort people so much that they’ll write it down in their diary or buy a sign at Hobby Lobby with the phrase on it?
