I fux with you man.. Im trying to have that mentality.

But my situation is Ive gotten past any sort of nihilistic worldview.. I understand that life is nothing more then what you make it, & if you catch me in the right mood I come off as creative, ambitious, & focused... Ive got goals and ambitions

but at this point Ive missed out on crucial life experience.. Thats what Im worried about.

If I had realized this sort of stuff at age 15 Id be on the come up

You're young bruh. I missed out on a ton of stuff, as well, but in the past year or so, I've made up for lost time :shaq:


Get an education as a safeguard and then figure out what YOU want to do. The economy is bad right now so if you fail to make your goals happen, it's not like your losing a ton of ground to your peers. Your 20s are for making mistakes in my opinion. Life can't be perfected but you can strive for perfection.

Stop thinking so damn much. Don't marinate on the past or future TOO much as that is a mental trap. Life is short breh, act like it. AINT NO TIME TO WASTE WITH THINKING WHEN YOU COULD BE LIVING.

you still got time, im 23 :sadcam:
i probably gonna end up being a bum or something

Same age. We got plenty of time, nikka.

Literally, the economy is so fukked that even the people our age getting TONS of degrees aren't going to be making TONS of money. We're going to be a "lost generation" so we might as well all pursue our dreams and go out in a blaze of glory in our twenties before the corporations/ government turn us into "debt slaves" and indentured servants

god, I feel like I'm reading a thread created by myself. You're not alone out there. I have no clue what I want to do with my life. I'm getting a degree in accounting just because I know I can pay back loans with it and it can lead to a good career. Although I'm somewhat disgusted by the thought of being a corporate shill, I have a fear of not amounting to anything respectable :sadbron:

Don't do it. Thats how the Matrix traps you, breh. You don't have to go into the field that you got your degree for. Think long and hard what you really want to do and give it a go. Don't give up before you even try.

I somewhat feel like once I get a little bit of money it can allow me to explore other hobbies and career opportunities. I like drinking beers, smoking weed, hanging out with friends, playing video games, watching tv/sports/movies, playing basketball and going to hiphop shows. If I can find a way to make a living out of that, I'd be happy

Ya youre making good points for sure.. idk man, my main issue is that theres a disconnect between my words & my actions. Like I can talk real shyt all day.. but when it comes down to it I still have trouble going out & getting shyt done.

Maybe I need to start meditating or something

That's the trap. You start out "I'll make a bit of money and get out".... zoom: 20 years later and you still in that bytch , miserable w/ a overweight naggin azz wife and lil nikkaz runnin around your house, testing you after a 60 hour work week. Don't settle. The money will come if you really want to do what you want in the long run.

I think you're just introverted as fukk :manny: I know because I'm the exact same way (I was an UBER gaming nerd middle through highschool). I'm too laid back and I enjoy what I have at this current moment, I tend to be happy with little.

Something is missing. You're not motivated, why? Get to the root of it.

Well, I atleast need to pay back these god damn loans man. And I don't even have a clue what I want to do so it's a little easier said then done.
