I had the total opposite thought. Seeing this makes me realize how stupid it is to toil one's life away for a career
- ninju 7y agoI believe they are implying that 'procrastinating' is the same thing as 'toiling one's life' away
- xwdv 7y agoThere’s not much of a point to life, so you might as well choose to be happy and chase after pleasurable stimuli. The silver lining to toiling at a career is that it gives you the funding to chase greater and greater stimuli and with less effort. As long as you keep your body healthy the climax of your life will be that much greater. If your career is not doing that for you come up with a new strategy or get a new career, but never change the goal.
- winter_blue 7y agoFair point. (Basically, if you have the financial means, live the best life you can. Don't toil it away on non-meaningful stuff.)
