>When you realize your peers from highschool are achieving impressive things while you waste your life on an anime webforum, Korean pedophileshows or playing manchild videogames
How do you cope? Do you prefer to not think about it or do you tell yourself lies to make yourself feel better?
Git a job, git a wife, git a life
why bother caring?
they're exerting themselves while im living like a king
>while im living like a king
Do you really believe that?
not literally, but life is p good
What have you accomplished? What is good about your life that didn't require any "exertion" - as you call it?
none of my friends make as much money as I do
You are truly a pathetic cuck leaf. If you hate your life so much i'd suggest a rope, not even memeing.
Why do you care about '''''''''''accomplishments""""""""
Why would suicide be a better option than simply becoming successful?
Because they are important and show what you've spent your time living on earth on.
It's not if you are willing to improve yourself, however you don't seem disposed to do it. You make stupid posts that reek of determinism, like a little pathetic cuck that can't control his life.
I just wanted to know how other people here live their lives so I could some motivation for living my own as well
>wasting my life
mate im living the dream, snort coke on the weekends and saving money living with my rents so i can go travelling.
living in a first world country is amazing. browse Sup Forums and watch movies all day long in the mean time.
literally no worries
Life is about doing your own thing.
I don't think I would be happy if I had lives more like those of my peers from school.
>browse Sup Forums and watch movies all day long in the mean time.
but that's boring as fuck though. I don't think I've ever recalled a day where I said "Man I had such a good day, all i did was shitpost on Sup Forums, watch CP and play some autistic videogame all day long. Bestday ever!".
It feels like actually working towatds a goal for a long time and achieving it is more fun than wasting away.
Well what is "your own thing", then?
Dropping out of school because I wasn't happy and getting into Bitcoin
yeah, you need to do social things on the weekend and sometimes social things in the week or you get lonely.
i also take a lot of walks in nature
You mean a ponzi scheme with no underlying value? I guess that's a good reason to dropout. I can't possibly foresee that ever falling through. I'm sure it's much more valuable than a degree from an accredited educational institution.
I don't see it failing. By my calculations the price will be high enough for me to retire by 2025.
and what are those calculations if I may see them?
I'm waiting.
bump.

Where it all went wrong?
Well what did you try? What do you do everyday? That might have some clues as to where it went wrong.

it's the opposite. My peers at high school work at office jobs at the very best while I will be working as a geneticist aboard in a few months
I'm actually improving quite a bit.

nope
Are you doing retail sales or something? Or a literal peasant shelf stocker?
No, they aren't
What a retarded way to think, you ego is showing, when you're dead you're nothing, you won't change anything at all in the vast scale of things.
But they are. Unless they made fake linkedins and Twitter accounts for some reason.
Shelf stocker but I don't mind it tbqh. At least I don't have to work with customers. I also get along with the stocking people better than the floor people.
It's at REI (the burgerstan version of MEC) so there are some nice perks, I can get outdoor equipment for pretty cheap.
I'm quitting when I transfer, though, so I can do research.
Yeah but while you're alive it matters. So why live your only life so poorly?
Also individual people changed a lot in the "grand scheme" of things.
>So why live your only life so poorly?
So poorly compared to what?
What is it that you want that others have and you don't?
>Also individual people changed a lot in the "grand scheme" of things.
Not really, eventually it won't matter, compared to eternity every action, even the seemingly most impactful one, is worth nothing.
...
>What is it that you want that others have and you don't?
Great accomplishments that I can be proud of and look back on when I'm old. I don't know about you but for me personally somehow saying "I wasted 300000 hours on videogames or Sup Forums" just doesn't feel as good as saying "I worked hard and now I have an impressive physique that 99% of the population does not have" or "I make more money than 99% of people in the world which allows me to live a comfortable and enjoyable life as well as work a job I enjoy".
I tried as hard as i could. I tried to get into university, got really high scores in all disciplines but failed on the essay which is the critical part. I tried making friends but people look at me with a face of disgust because when i'm anxious my face has blank expression and i have uncontrollable extreme levels of anxiety. I'm just fucked, there is no way out.
Those accomplishments you list seem shallow and meaningless to me, when you're old you croak and that's it, might aswell wnjoy it when you can.
You don't need to be filthy rich to live comfortably and when you're old being rich won't make much of a difference anyway.
Working hard itself is useless if you don't have a passion for the job you're doing, work is for money.
>Those accomplishments you list seem shallow and meaningless to me
Then what accomplishments seem meaningful to you? Jacking off to anime all day long? Posting on Sup Forums all day long and seeing the same fucking thread everyday?
I've tried it. I tried spending all day on Sup Forums and all day playing different videogames. It somehow just wasn't as fun as actually accomplishing something.
>and when you're old being rich won't make much of a difference anyway.
Oh so you're telling me that having access to the best medical treatments in the world will not matter when you're old?
That having access to top-tier doctors and travel to them when you're old will not matter? That life extension therapy will not matter? That access to top-tier food will not matter? That steroids, HGH and stemcells will not improve your lifequality drastically compared to some cuckold who still has to break his back when he's old just to live a pitiful life?
That sucks buddy. Well at least you're creating less competiton for me when I work on becoming successful.
>Jacking off to anime all day long?
So it's either making money for the sake of it or jerking off to anime?
Are you really that stupid?
>Then what accomplishments seem meaningful to you?
It's subjective, life has no meaning by itself, one can decide what is meaningful
>It somehow just wasn't as fun as actually accomplishing something.
Because you let others decide what an "accomplishment" is for you
>h so you're telling me that having access to the best medical treatments in the world will not matter when you're old?
Yeah, it doesn't matter that much, if you're getting too old you can just kill yourself or don't be a bitch and live with it.
It's likely that in the future better treatments will be available to almost everyone, seeing how fast medicine and technology in general s progressing, so you don't have to worry about that anyways.
rather than focusing on what you don't have, be grateful for the things you do

No I decided it myself.
>It's likely that in the future better treatments will be available to almost everyone, seeing how fast medicine and technology in general s progressing, so you don't have to worry about that anyways.
bullshit. When life extension therapy comes out it will be AT LEAST millions of dollars, the average pleb who chose to sit at home on Sup Forums and work at mcdonalds won't come close to it. Hell right now all the good shit costs money, you're retarded if you think all of a sudden it will be free. More like the shitty stuff rich people have had for 50 years will be free while the good stuff will still cost money.
I was never in the competition anyway.
But isn't things I have or don't have within my control? Can't I get them by working for it? Seems retarded to say "Well at least i live in a safe first world country, i am thankful for this" instead of actually making the most of it.
nothing is within our control, life is just an endless stream of chaos that we just happen to translate and call forth meaning according to our perceptions of reality. You're not making "the most of it" by wallowing in self pity and envying others for their accomplishments, gratitude is what dealt the mortal blow to that inner demon envy. it's only going to lead you in a downward spiral towards self destruction if your only ambition is to "be better" than everyone
>and envying others for their accomplishments
I don't feel envy about it. I feel inspired because they were simple people that went to my highschool, in the same country as me. There is LITERALLY no reason why I should not be as successful as them besides the different choices that we made.
>nothing is within our control
Also explain to me how this is true. Why are some people successful and some people not? Is it just pure luck or did they actually do something to accomplish it?
answer me.
Life gives you lemons, we can all agree that it rains on the just and the unjust alike. shit just happens, and it's a fact.
As for people who are successful, it's just a matter of mindset and persistent tenacity to undergo the process of manifesting their thoughts into actions. Our lives for the most part are just strung between seeking after dionysian pleasures and joy and avoiding pain and suffering, but we can't expect to be self-entitled and always get what we want. Nature is chaotic, and we are always victim to chance.
but for the most part it's Do action -> Get expected result
discounting things like getting hit by a truck, or getting shot, or getting diagnosed suddenly with stage 4 cancer.
give me one reason why I should continue to post on Sup Forums.
>Do action -> Get expected result
>Fantasy
>Do action -> Fail Miserably -> Try again ->fail even more miserably -> Cycle repeats -> Get expected results
>Reality
As i mentioned previously, you only need to be a persistent fucker to get things done.
Your reason to continue posting on Sup Forums: you tell me.
Well yes expanded further it would be that way, yes. but I mean when I break things down into steps they seem very manageable and easy. How is losing weight hard? Or gaining muscle? Or getting a better job? Or learning anything? it all seems easy when broken down.
>Your reason to continue posting on Sup Forums: you tell me.
I can't think of a single one. This is the most inefficient method of gaining information or interacting with people. It's also horribly unentertaining. It's all-around an awful use of time.
Mindset is key, everything is determined by our internal disposition. Never by external factors. It's evident in people born with disabilities who don't let said disabilities get in the way of accomplishing things.
>I can't think of a single one.
Then gtfo and stop wasting your time on here if you perceive it as such.
Is Sup Forums the ultimate enemy of success then? By filling the mind with negative thought patterns instead of practical, actionable steps on how to get something done?
it is if you allow it to be, that just depends on you.
Is it even possible to be in a negative and unproductive environment for extended periods of time and not let it affect you?
If you had to sit in a mental hospital and deal with people who were suicidally depressed, beaten by their husbands, children who got raped by their parents an hour ago or whatever for 2-3 hours a day there is absolutely no way you would be able to be a cheery person. So how is Sup Forums different in that regard?
>life extension therapy
Who the fuck would want a few extra years of poor quality life? And yes, when you're old life isn't much fun anymore.
By then it would probably be even better. And no, if you have money is still fun. You can literally feel like a 20-30 year old man thanks to hgh and steroids. Let alone having a great time on some beach all day long.
I reckon on Sup Forums at least there is a sizeable portion of people who are actually not total screw-ups and are living decent lives despite their problems (i.e no gf, virgin, anxiety, depression.. whatever)
I don't see any of my highschool peers and think 'wow look at them and look at me'. Most of them are just doing the same shit as I do (studying, working... whatever). Maybe I'm more messed up than many of them but fuck it that's life eh.
>By then it would probably be even better
Time for your psychosis medication.
>there will be no major medical advances within 30-40 years despite email not even being used 20 years ago
This is what you are saying.
