The fucking moon.

Creativity takes time to get into the right mindset before it manifests. The demands of life in the modern era leave little room for self.

Work alone is an unavoidable sacrifice of quality of life for the majority of people.


How much time do the majority of people spend scrolling on their phones?

I tend to think that i don’t have time to do the things i want to do outside of work, but on the rare occasions when i managed to put my phone aside for a couple of weeks I find I have more time than i know what to do with.

Everyone’s situation is different obviously, but personally “I don’t have time” is completely untrue


Burnout happened to me because I lost my way.

I had worked 25 hard years to LeanFIRE which ag the end burned me out but I knew why. Less than two years later divorce happened. This forced me back into the workforce. I chose a job that fit my values. I have no reason or understanding of why I matter anymore and that has led to significant and severe burnout.

Find a purpose in life and protect it. In the end you can only rely only on yourself.
