Recently it feels like the stuff that’s frictionless are the distractions and time wasters and all the important stuff I’ve been trying to do are well guarded by walls of bureaucracy.
- ambicapter 4y agoThat's exactly how I see it. Everything that is frictionless has been designed that way to either suck your attention or your money. Everything that rewards you in life has always had some modicum of struggle to it, and now that we're all used to convenience, those struggle walls seem much higher than before. I don't really know how to get out of it. I take ice-cold showers every morning and it's now more or less "easy". Doesn't really feel like a big step though. I guess I just keep going, trying more and more difficult things.
