      I’m literally the most active person I know. That’s the worst part. Despite having days of feeling like shit I’m still doing a lot. Maybe those days are just vents for all the negative energy I’ve got too accumulate.

        Sometimes it helps to write annual retrospectives, just going through all the stuff you did that year (looking at photos helps). I thought I had totally wasted 2023 but when I wrote my annual retrospective I really couldn’t draw out the impression of a wasted year. I did a lot!

          That’s a good idea, I also recommend journaling. Along with meditation, it’s the best habit that you can develop.

          Wage slavery often feels like you’re running in a hamster wheel but if you’re journaling, you can read your entries from a year ago and see how much progress you’ve made.

        I think it’s possible to do everything you’re supposed to and still feel like shit. That’s because the problem is not in you, it’s in the hellworld. The problem is systemic, so no amount of individual action can solve it. I think we should try our best but accept that life is still gonna be garbage sometimes (or most of the time lol)
