    It’s common to advise young people that Working hard and grinding when you are young, then having relatively calm and relaxation life for the rest of the life.

    I think the relaxation never comes, if you work to death right now then still there is a pretty good chance you would be doing same 10 years from now. I believe ther should be balance between work and life no matter what age.

      I encourage everyone to aim to have their midlife crisis moment sometime in their mid twenties.

      Get off the treadmill of life while it’s still cheap to hop on and off.

      About relaxation. I’ve found that I can’t relax untill I’ve chilled for 2 weeks. Until then I have a wheel in my head that just won’t stop spinning. But after that 2 weeks I transform.

      Also working hard doesn’t get you anywhere. You have to also be an asshole that claws your way out of the bottom of the bucket of crabs.

      There’s so many really good hard workers at dead end jobs that get treated like shit.
