No they don’t. It’s bad to be a workaholic sure, but the universe is an unforgiving place and we’re here only to be productive. This is a truth regardless of your metaphysical beliefs.
What people need is to make sure they’re not being overly productive at one thing while letting other things drift away.
- nostromo 4y ago> we’re here only to be productive The heat death of the universe will destroy anything you do with your life and will erase any possibility of it being recorded or remembered. So… enjoy life. All you have is the current moment. Productivity - especially to enrich someone else - is a fool’s game. Be as productive as you need to to enjoy life. If you enjoy your work (I do) then do it because you enjoy it, not because it’s productive.
- namaria 4y ago>but the universe is an unforgiving place yes >and we’re here only to be productive how did you make this jump? the universe doesn't care in the slightest how you spend your time or what you do. we're not here to anything. we're utterly insignificant and our life is devoid of meaning. you can choose to fill it with fulfillment by some definition of producing something. I really don't care. I just think it's sad to define your life in relation to some arbitrary definition of your externally bounded output. but by all means, if that's what you want... just don't say it's The Way of The Universe. That's just wrong.
