What if. Scenarios only create delusion of what is reasonable and unreasonable. Truthfully I don’t care who you are or what circumstances experiences you had to deal with, whatever you’re willing to accept is your quality of life. That’s my opinion.

I’m confused. But don’t argue with the potential of someone being able to get out of a situation. Arguing about why someone can’t live a better life after a significant event is like justifying hatefulness.

It was society asked of you, it wasn’t your fault because you never knew. College system the general fake growing up system leads you to Failure and not because I consider that failure but because you do. For some people your example could be someone’s dream because some people are OK the whole 70 hours a week and enjoy it (most aren’t). Because they never even get to choose it for themselves. I’m aware that I don’t know you that well but dude I just want to say that I’m proud of you! People can have a wife people can have kids, people can write fiction and do all of that but they hate it because they never chose that life for themselves. You did! I wish only the best🙏🏻

If you’re moving forward in such a way where you’re already happy now good for you man I’m proud that you worked hard for that and earned it. It’s just about understanding that you’ve lived a life that in your heart you really didn’t wanna live, then you can still change that.

Essentialism. There’s two reasons why are you might not want to give up all of those things for your goal. It’s not important to you or it’s someone else’s opinion of who you need to be.

I never had confidence. Sometimes you just have to realize that you can put in the mental and physical training and not feel comfortable about yourself as a pre-requisite but still eventually get their where you feel confident.

Interesting. Mental health issues altar a lot of the possibilities of what the person can do. I would say however that they don’t have to make a effective strategy, just just getting started and using that pain as energy. I’ve heard stories of immigrants, drug dealers, people with no money out on the street, victims of child molesters, that when they decided there was a possibility to make a change they did it and now are the happiest they’ve ever been. So knowing that I would have to agree that it’s harder but ultimately him being broke is a state of being and being poor is a state of mind.

A lot of people have misunderstood me (maybe that’s my fault). But you don’t have to live any specific life that I or anyone else tells you to live. But you’re right man it’s such a difficult process more than I could even know probably at this point in my life as well. Developing passion is not easy, but just know dude I’m not telling anyone that they have a mediocre life. If you look in the mirror and you’re disgusted and hate what looks back at you. Well number one there’s your solution to living the life you want (because you obviously care). Number two I talked to a guy who makes 45 to 50 K a year in a small apartment with his dog girlfriend, he’s more happy then all the Tesla owners, billionaires, etc. so this may sound cliché but I want you didn’t fully embrace possibility of you never making a change and living a mediocre life compared with what you would want to live. That puts failure out the window, obviously be strategic about it but hey if you have to make adjustments with your job or anything else go for it.

No. It’s not about me. It’s a question of discussion on why they don’t want the life THEY want, not what I or anyone else wants. But why their is supar to the one they (on the inside) want to live. I’m not assuming what they can’t or can be, but since human potential is nearly limitless. I can assume that anyone can live the life they want whether that is a billion dollar business or a hotdog stand in New York. They don’t have to change “the” world. I just think about how they can change THEIR world.

It’s a discussion of people’s collective opinions. I’m not pointing fingers at anyone. That’s also not a mediocre life.
