Hey, Everyone its been a very Longtime Welcome to my world it's a psychedelic trance.

So, What do you want to do? If you don’t know then you don’t get to complain about your job. I should add this only applies to single people without any dependents. If you have a family to feed, then you should feed them the best way you can.  Anyway, you quit your job. figure out what you wanna do. As my favorite person in the world my Editor put it, “the playing field is level.” I watch a lot of movies. I eat. I sleep. I code. I read books. I exercise. I hang out with my friends. I help my friends with their projects.  I go to the malls for shopping. I write. I listen to music. I scroll through my socials. Time is actually very easy to “waste”. But i don’t understand that concept. John Lennon said that any time enjoyed isn’t wasted. I really do enjoy most of the time that I "waste". So, why don’t I work more? Because burn out is real. There’s a balance in all things. Most people "working" everyday from 9-5 aren’t actually getting anything "done". They're distracting themselves or pretending to work. Working for 'work's sake' is this subtle, socially-acceptable, psychological abuse to ourselves. I don’t understand everyone's current obsession with success. Money, status, followers, views, prestige. Blah blah. I'm not saying it’s wrong to progress in your craft and pursue challenging projects you’re proud of, but you should understand it’s not going to change anything. After the success of your first big break, you’ll get this high from all the attention and respect from everyone, Some random people might come up to you and Congratulate you, but after a few months it'll pass and you’ll be the same person. You’re still gonna come home to your normal life. You’re not gonna suddenly be happier and content. This obsession with success is making everyone depressed. There I said it. Just chill the fuck out, live your life, make mistakes, finish projects you're proud of and move on. It’s all the fucking same. you know what will make you happy? Boring shit no one talks about. Taking a girl you like out BOWLING. Deep Late night talks. Board games with friends. Sharing stories with people. Spending time with family. You can't sensationalize these things. I guess You're getting it.

I’m not obsessed with success. I’m obsessed with progress. The process of growing and building things is what I’m addicted to. The money and all the fluff are just bi-products of what I love. Happiness is all internal and it has absolutely nothing to do with anything outside your head. And I’m genuinely very happy. I hope everyone can feel the way I feel. Someone Dm'ed me  saying you're not 20 anymore... Its ok to say that you're having a mid life crisis and i straight up started laughing at last obviously its always a plus point knowing that I’m not the only one dealing with this.

Seriously,

Thanks For Reading
