What people mean when they say you have more “energy” when you’re young

[New Poster]

They mean you have more delusions when you’re young. You can start a career and think you’re going to be the boss in five years. You think you can make everyone like you. You have all sorts of unreasonable dreams that you think you can achieve, so it motivates you to try. When you realize what life actually is, it takes a lot of wind out of everyone’s sail. It’s harder and harder to wake up early and grind when you know it probably will only marginally better your life. You also have less time left, so you don’t want to sacrifice it. Taking five years in your 20s to build a better life makes sense, but it makes less and less sense as you age. You still have energy and vigor. It’s not until you’re actually elderly that your body breaks down. People just lose their delusions and stop giving a shit.

I’m in my early 20s, and my body has already broken down. Got a face fulla wrinkles.

I mean you do physically have more energy when you are younger and your also allowed to rest more without any care in the world

Children are young, healthy and happy, they’re full of life. This only disappears as the realise the reality of it all(if normie), expectations, responsibilities, stress.

Yeah the outlook that anything is possible and u can achieve any dream is one of the best things about being young but once you get in ur mid-late 20s and gain experience u become realise pretty quickly life isn't like that.

What powers you through that is hope, but, when you become more and more realistic, there’s less space for that hope to play.

Hope comes from circumstance, ofc a tall chad with a rich family is hopeful

Yeah, if you’re like top 1% in everything, sure. But most people will have lots of unrealized dreams.

Sometimes u just gotta face the facts, you’ll never find a trad virgin, you’ll never be that superstar and you likely won’t become filthy rich without the network. It’s okay to settle for less sometimes

Surgery is the last hope! My mental state is already so bad, even with surgery to cling to. I have no idea how I will cope when my surgery doesn’t ascend me and I’m £10s of k in the red.

And that makes it harder to sacrifice current pleasure for long-term improvement

I’ve already decided I’m going to cope with art. I’ll become some pretentious turtleneck wearing faggot who reads literature and philosophy, and sublimate all my sexual urges into appreciating aesthetics. Once the jb are off the table (like, literally they’re not bent over my table), I’m sublimationmaxxing.

I loved The Witch and The Lighthouse. Fucking hated The Northman. Couldn't even finish it.

Odd opinion. Northman was the most accessible of his movies. It’s just Apocalypto + Hamlet.

You are right, but they mean it literally. A job takes too much free time and they compensate with sacrificing sleep (which was probably already shit before that) which, together which a shit diet and overexercising, leads to shit recovery. People with physical jobs get their body damaged and it needs to recover, while people with mental jobs get tired mentally. Pretty much being a wageslave sucks all life from you. On the other hand, a NEET who does not become fat will probably energy mog all his peers. Same thing with GL rich people. Old but full of energy.
