I totally feel you and many people have no choice but to hustle endlessly, but I worked myself into a mental hospital and almost to death. I couldn’t juggle it all anymore and I broke down. It was a bit more complicated than that, but sleep deprivation and constant stress really damaged my body, and my brain isn’t quite what it was before my break. You can seriously burn yourself out if you burn the candle at both ends for too long and eventually find yourself unable to work effectively. Pure frustration, to have trained at something for years and years and to struggle emotionally to do it at all anymore. The depression was intense.

I know a guy who gave himself diabetes by dealing with his work stress through sugar, and another has chronic health issues- it can seriously damage you physically to push yourself too hard at work. It’s important to sleep and have hobbies outside of work to at least avoid burnout and exhaustion. Breaks and vacations help output in the long run, turns out.

But there’s still no shame in working fucking hard to support your people. This is just the system we live in.

> Bad deeds work the same way. Say that instead of giving them $20, you steal $20 out of their purse in the checkout line. Now they don’t have the money for those breakfast supplies, their kid is below the cutoff line for gifted classes, and none of that stuff happens. They don’t do well in school, they don’t get into college, and they repeat the cycle of poverty they were born into.

That's a ridiculously one dimensional way to look at things, and doesn't even work that way in modern countries where education is free.

Well shit this is a powerful message.

Someone forgot the light on.

Aaaaaand you’ve been fired.

Ah yes, cant wait to work for 13 hours and rest for 15 hours everyday

It's only 3 times harder than for you parents, come on bro, get off your ass and get a third job.

As Ann Landers used to say, "Nobody can take advantage of you unless you let them."

"Don't work super hard, because you might just die."

Now that's motivating!

The more you try to push away a feeling the more it will attack. If you acknowledge it, own and accept that you are feeling it you can then let it go. The more you starve it the more it fights for survival. Feed it, acknowledge it, decide you don’t need to act on it and let it go. Fed wolves are happy wolves. Happy wolves don’t fight

Why would I want a haunted bunk house in a cold climate?

No, you feed them both and they will serve you well. They will both always be there and if you feed only the light wolf the dark will wait to take advantage. The dark will always go after the light if starved. If you acknowledge the dark and nourish it’s qualities of strength, courage and strategy while letting out the negative in healthy ways it will be happy and will not compete. When you are whole and acknowledge all of yourself even the shadow parts there is no internal struggle. You can choose to starve one part of yourself forever or guide both to something greater.

I'm the fan above you🤭

Inside me there are two wolves. One is gay, the other is gay.

I'm gay.

Live fast, die young

You and me both. We got this!

At this point, I’m pretty sure wishing is the only chance I have of owning a house.

Last I heard it was Abinaki so 0 proof
