Hustling is spending the best years of your life to exhaustion so you can rest when you're old and exhausted anyway.

Besides, most people who hustle don't even know what to do once they've accumulated enough and get back working anyway out of boredom, albeit it be something of their liking in all likelyhood since they may choose not to work and withdraw if whatever they're doing doesn't please them.

The fact that work and money come before family and dreams really bothers me.

Fuck this era of humanity.

Born on a world of abundance then making each other pay to live here.

Having the audacity to carry on the casual saying "you have to earn a living" implying you don't deserve to live here other wise is a monument to how Fucking stupid we all are.

I have the exact same issue. Severe childhood trauma. People think I'm doing well because I have a good job and home but in reality, I'm like you.

At work I can crush my goals but, at home I'm a month behind on laundry. I had to get a weekly house keeper to clean my house because I don't have the motivation to do but, I can't stand filth. It's so ridiculous to me but, honestly I don't know how to change it.

Honestly, keep moving forward with your therapy. If you have made progress with your current therapist, keep going.

I look at it like a utility.

We need electricity and internet to work with the world. We need therapy to work with ourselves.

Just pour your heart out to your therapist and keep working with them.

You were a kid a long time ago when you collected these cobwebs. Today, you are an adult with limited you time to clean the cobwebs.

It will take time.

And a good gym. Healthy mind, healthy body.
