Self-improvement is against human nature

[Eärendil]

Humans are wired to do the bare minimum to survive. This includes breathing, drinking, eating, fighting off threats, finding shelter. Beyond that all in life is things you want, but they are not essential. It isn't essential for you to go to the gym for years. No one needs this to survive. Neither do you need to become a millionare, or do much of anything for that matter. The mind would rather make you rot at home than break inertia. I think the mind is like an asteroid orbiting the sun, it doesn't want to change orbit and only outside factors can make it change.

Stagnation is against human nature. You’re meant to grow over time, not dwindle and shrink. It’s why incels go insane. Instead of having more and more sex we just rot
