I had a similar realization that the achievement culture is going nowhere and I'm starting to reject the idea that everything should be optimized. I do think we should try to improve as people, but actual meaning/progress requires relaxing into yourself and doing things for an intrinsic love of them.

Loved to read this :)

I may seem a bit different from most of your peers. I have always reacted against other peoples’ ambitions on my behalf. 🌤️
