> Your brain isn't as weak as the society tells you. Entire state of life becomes awesome and fulfilling. To a certain point, I find myself agreeing with this more and more. While I still firmly believe that therapy is extremely useful (if nothing else, it's like an impartial 3rd party you can bounce ideas off of), I think that most people saying they didn't have the energy to do $BASIC_TASK_X are choosing to do so, and lying to themselves. I often will not do something because I feel exhausted, but I'm also acutely aware that it is a choice, and I _can_ do it if I must. I did a career shift into tech in my 30s via getting a Master's in SWE while I was working nights on a weird compressed shift (4x12, 3 days off, 3x12, 4 days off). It was extremely difficult and in no way healthy, but I did it because it needed to be done. It paid off; got a job before graduating. Immediate salary boost and enjoyment of work.
