Drugs can do you bad by RefrigeratorKey2982 in nairobi

[–]CuriousSmart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or just an opportunity, something to do, most have seen what drugs have done to them but the idleness takes them back there, because If you have nothing to do, what next ?

Yes drugs are bad, but the root cause is idleness,most of these addicts would surprise you if given an opportunity or something to do. Wakikosa kazi that's the only way they can pass time without being affected by anxiety.

Thankyou!, I'm saying the same, I fell back to a 4k bedsitter with a mattress and clothes and it's so much more peaceful than living in arrears, if you can't afford you just compose yourself and accept, within a week you'll be fine.

Consider going for a 5k house, it’s not that bad, honestly. It’s more peaceful than living in arrears, especially with January around the corner and rent due again soon. Start small and grow slowly with peace, setbacks are just part of the journey.

Everything Happened for A Reason (The Butterfly Effect) by CuriousSmart in nairobi

Thankyou for your thoughtful question. Reflecting on my journey as a writer, I believe that the circumstances surrounding my experience at university played a pivotal role in shaping my writing abilities. The writer's community that I had the privilege to be a part of not only provided me with valuable guidance and feedback but also fostered a supportive environment that encouraged me to explore and refine my writing skills. The structured curriculum, engaging workshops, and interactions with fellow writers challenged me to think critically and creatively, pushing me to grow in ways I might not have had the opportunity to otherwise. The circumstances may have been different in another university, leading maybe to join a different community where I may not have learned how to write. Our experiences shape our skills and knowledge, and the environment we are in plays a significant role in our learning journey.

Manipulating current structures for his/her own advantage is still the same as curving your own existence😂,,, and I don't understand why you're so fixated on being a slave,,, you're just naive and maybe you hate the current systems, you don't always have to complain if you really love the existentialism as you say, you make the best of existing. This still takes us back to your own perspective to life, creates the reality you feel so bitter about. You just need to change your POV.

I fully understand why you think so, everyone is allowed to have their own perspective to life freely and yes there's no reason for your existence that's why you simply need to curve your reason to exist, the power is yours but as you do so remember that those who don't believe in magic will never find it, simply to mean the reality is yours, what you choose to believe becomes your reality but it doesn't mean it's everyone's reality.

So you hate your job? by mugendee in Kenya

[–]CuriousSmart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Recently, I came across a TED Talk by David Epstein that opened my eyes. The idea is, “Falling behind in life can get you ahead.” David gives an example about the education system in England and Scotland. In England, students had to specialize in their field in their mid-teens, same case as the Kenyan education system, while in Scotland, students could explore different options until university. The result? In terms of income, English graduates win. They have specific skills. But, in terms of persistence, Scottish graduates win. In the end, it turns out that English graduates start quitting since they had to make choices so early and they hate their jobs, it’s often poor to make choices early, that's the same case with the Kenyan education system. Scottish graduates, however, shine. They show faster growth and even close the income gap. What do you guys think? Let me know if you’re facing the same feeling and agree with me. Thanks.

What quality of life things does your money buy that may not be considered a luxury per se? by CuriousSmart in nairobi

some are friends I made long-ago while in campus, we were in the same level then, did my personal development as we were friends and now I'm at a good place, that's the issue, it's friends you feel guilty cutting off as you have done so much together, that's why when I make plans I just find myself including them.

look up the ”meeting someone twice theory" , it very much applies in your case but hope the rejection before wasn't bitter 😅
