Im a literal retard. Srs.

Always roasting myself daily. Always feeling like I'm behind compared to my own standards. Then somebody throws out at random household stat and I realize I'm doing better than most.

I still want to do better though, I'm in my own little world.

I'm doing better than many my age, but not as good as *I* could be doing so that's why I roast myself
Have fun and be yourself :-)

Yes. It’s best not to compare yourself to misc standards of success/wealth. I still do because I respect the brahs here and aspire to achieve the things they have, but it’s not the norm. Not even close.

"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

To be fair it’s lucky I’m not a genetic moron. Genetics basically make you who you are. That hard work you put in? That was also your genetics pushing you as a harder worker.

Hate to say it but genetics is everything. Some of us are just better than others genetically

cope.

in the game of life - don't look at the people behind you. look at the people ahead of you.

"average" is pitifully low.

Im in better shape (financially and physically) than most my age (60). House and cars paid off 15 yrs ago.
3 mil in retirement accounts. Zero debt, etc.

However, compared to many modern day Crypto and influencers, Im poor.
But dont compare yourself to anyone. I can live comfortably in retirement (coming in 2 yrs) hopefully, and thats all that matters.

Daily gym, beach, food, relaxing... Phukk everyone else..
