This. Also, people don’t actually care about the accomplishments of others, just the stories surrounding them, and even then the story has to be interesting, which is why more people seemingly care about cereal kriller #83 instead of self-made CEO #179.

To the anons out there: you have until about 30 to "get your life on course." It takes about 6-7 years of hard work and conscious acts to actually change the course of your life and establish an actual career.

If you start at 24 (like I did), you'll finally be on track by the time you're 31. If you start at 30, you'll finally be set at 37. That's JUST enough time left to potentially find a partner and have kids, if that's your goal. And your energy rapidly diminishes after 40, so you have 3 years left to have wild fun with whatever money and free time you've accrued with your career. If you wait any longer than 30, you have to really weigh suicide as an option, because most people do at that stage. Like if you're 40, you could get your life on track by 47-48 (everything takes longer to change the older you get). So you're finally set in a career and lifestyle right about the time you hit 50, which is when people start retiring from one career to pursue another. Can you compete with energetic 20-somethings in your 50's who are gunning for the same positions and goals as you are? Probably not, it's the way of the world. You're most likely going to lead a mediocre life at best. Is that worth living? Lots of people say it isn't, and that's why you see a spike of suicides after 35. I'm not saying you should end yourself if you're not set by 37, but you have to accept that unless you are just hiding some supreme inherent talent, you're going to have to accept and find a way to live with the fact that you're not going to be accomplishing much in your life.

>texting a bitch who has a RO against you so she has an indisputable electronic record of it
Why would you be that retarded? She obviously doesn't want to talk to you. If you absolutely must talk to her, you should have just stalked her and ambushed her outside of her work or something.

There’s just no point in trying dawg. The outside world is extremely depressing, I’m a NEET and the dude who violated the RO just because I really wanted to fuck around and find it what would happen because everything else is so fucking boring.

your conclusions dont really follow from your arguments and your perspective is unhealthy in the way it is outcome and comparison focused. people should focus on sustainable activities that make them happy regardless of further outcome, age, etc. being too realistic about your expectations will actually do more harm than good on average, and an outcome fixation might just flat out prevent you from living your best life.

>realizing I wasted my college degree on pointless follow your dreams Bs
"Follow your dreams" is possibly the most poisonous piece of advice ever uttered, along with "you should experiment with other people before settling down." You find out what you're good at, and pursue a career from there. I wanted to be a journalist, but I found out in college that although I could write better than anyone else, I was nowhere near extroverted enough to actually work a beat in a news room and maintain a big social network to generate leads. But I was doing pest control part-time to pay for my schooling and was good at that, so I took Plan B and pursued a career with that, and now I own my own company with 4 employees. Do I love pest control? No, but I'm good at it, and that brings me satisfaction and money. I'll take that over endlessly pursuing a poisonous dream that only leads to disappointment and self-loathing, I had too much of that in my love life as a teen.
>>
Are there any movies that encourage doing nothing with your life? Not everyone is meant to do "something"
Already saw Perfect Days
>>
>>215575868
Reproducing is not an accomplishment when most people end up having children at some point.
>>
>>215575930
most people died of infection-aids back then and most people can't afford to have kids now.

>people should focus on sustainable activities that make them happy regardless of further outcome, age, etc.
You can say this but all psychological studies show otherwise. "Happiness" most strongly correlates with a stable family or intimate relationship life, not anything to do with careers. Pursuing happiness is bullshit and leads people to failure, because happiness is fleeting. You need something that gives you long-term satisfaction, like a stable career you don't hate and enough time and money to pursue things you find meaningful.

I’m currently gonna go to community college part time to get my associates in radiology, it pays a lot of money and I know there’s a chance it’ll get replaced by AI but eh who cares, I know that 4channers and people on the internet think getting a degree is easy but shit I dunno, now that I’m actually doing it I’d be pretty darn happy to get a degree just to say I did it. If I can get a degree, make friends, lose weight and get muscles, learn a second language, learn a martial art, and get wife up a girlfriend with some kids and a house I would literally die the happiest man ever. But then again I come from nothing, parents never went to school, never owned a house, I grew up poor, so me doing all those things would be a huge accomplishment hopefully I can do it before I’m 32/33.

Honestly I don't really care about "accomplishing" anything in the conventional sense. I don't really have any desire to pursue a "career" and I'm perfectly content just collecting disability and working part time in retail for the rest of my life if I'm able to. My "aspirations" tend to be artistic in nature, but it's not something I could see myself making money off of, let alone making a career out of it. I'm fine with having a simple, low stakes life, and I don't see how that's a bad thing as long as it's sustainable.

I'm 34 and feel fucked. Working with people mostly ten years younger than me for a shit salary, my fault I guess but moved back to my hometown where there are few jobs. Trying to save as much as possible. Living with single mom who had a breakdown and split with her partner and told me she was moving in with me. Met some old HS friends recently and they are either married or in long-term relationships, all own their own homes and go on tons of holidays. Just rotting away in a small room saving every dollar I can but buying a house alone seems like a pipe dream at this point. I'm just lucky that I'm so bitter, jaded and autistic that a life of living quietly alone some day seems fine to me.
>>
>>215576276
Same. I just want to follow my interests and work on my little projects. I'm not waiting for some grand accomplishment, I've been enjoying the fruits this whole time.

NTA but if that's what you really believe and you're 30+ then your attitude towards life is symptomatic of this decadent age in which we live. Go read something that's good for your soul instead of quoting from psychology studies.

Literally EXACT same but I'm 29. Moved away from my hometown though because it's nowheresville and didn't have a group of friends anymore there anyways. But I see old friends and cousins I grew up with on FB and they have homes, wives, kids, great careers while I'm just a loser piece of shit with only 35k to my name and absolutely none of those accomplishments. I live just how I did at 18 after hs.

Everyone ITT is a fucking loser and I am better than you. It's not le parents fault you chose some shittyty art degree and are now 100k in debt. It's not le society that you're a fat NEET. I am not like you. I will not be a 40 year old mediocrity because I will not live past the age of 33 like Alexander the Great, Achilles and Christ. I am destined to be a great man of history. Like Light Yagami or Julien Sorel but even more handsome. Faggots. The future Hegel will write about me as the World Spirit of the 21 st century
