It was a nice read, but the article is clearly biased. It just says "suffer a bit today to have nicer tomorrow", but when you play the long game, tomorrow will be the same as today. You suffered yesterday, you suffer today, you will suffer tomorrow, but for how long? No one guarantees that after years of suffering you'll reach your desired goal. The question is, with the life being so short, is it worth playing the long goal or should you just enjoy your life and party till sunrise while you still can?
- BLKNSLVR 8y agoThe long game requires planning and goals, like any project. No one guarantees that after years of suffering you'll reach your desired goal This is flippant, but intended to be helpful: There are no guarantees. Each person has to use their own judgement on what's likely to happen in X amount of time, and then re-adjust on a regular basis. This is true for the short or the long game, it's just the distance to the horizon that's different.
