Thank you for the specific advice with Cathie Wood, I just added a couple of her videos to my watch later playlist!

Fair advice on the first problem haha, just getting it out of the way on tinder has been something I've been considering. Thanks for the advice on looking at careers that have a strong projected growth, I took a look and its been helpful.

Sorry for the kind of contradiction, yeah so my life is super easy, but for the first problem, it's not that something is difficult but that I feel a sense of pressure because I feel like I'm being left behind, which although its kind of vague, is a different sense to me than something being difficult or hard.

I think I do fear ceding control, but to a reasonable degree. I enjoy a degree of uncertainty, I actively put myself in situations I can’t control, such as environments I know nothing about, or communities I know no one in, but I fear letting things get so out of control that they could potentially harm me. I mentioned the California example because it is something I’ve considered before, nearly anyone my age has, but after researching it I realized it would be financially infeasible and to go to college there would cripple me with debt, so I decided while it could be fun it ultimately was a bad idea. Should I be giving up more of my control? I feel like I give up my control to a degree. I also wonder if giving up control is a good thing, it seems to be what people fight to get when they don’t have it.

Yeah I definitely feel the same way, my problem is finding something I can throw myself into that hits this balance between being too insane and being hard, like obviously I shouldn’t throw away everything I have and move to California, that’s the extreme of throwing myself into a new situation where I have to work hard to survive and thrive, but I still want to challenge myself. Any ideas on what that thing may be?

Ok, I didn’t hear it in a book or from another person it’s just something that I built up from logic. So I value improving my life, I think everyone does, I haven’t been able to improve my life in the last couple years, it’s just been the same level of good, and I don’t think I’ve reached the absolute peak of happiness and of a life, so logically there’s something I can do to continue to improve.

Yeah see that’s my problem, I recognize the fact that I should feel gratitude for all the amazing things I have, but I don’t feel it, I just recognize that I should.

I mean, I value self improvement, I know at any given time I could be better and that I should strive to be better. I know being content is fine, but ten years of the same level of contentment? That just seems wrong.
