Any Magical Pill To Live As It Comes?
When I was in school, I had people who never really cared about the degree, they didn't read to pass exams and didn't need to put in effort to perform the demanding commitments that came with schooling. Some of them were really comfortable and didn't lack the basic things to make them compromise. Money was one thing that made people compromise in school. If they saw they couldn't handle the financial demands of being in school, it made them lose hope in other sectors.
This was the same for most people, when they couldn't financially afford the materials that were necessary to procure the education they came for, it became difficult to do other things, and after, it was futile. I was somehow jealous of these people. My health wasn't great, it was messed up, but I really put in a lot into graduating well. There were times when my body couldn't put up with the physical and mental demands.
However, I had the opportunity to switch off for days and came back again into the hustle. These guys never had other crazy distractions, drinks, drugs, the love of the opposite sex, and general laziness. Maybe they weren't working for the money that paid their way through school, but I was. The money was hard-earned, but losing money and dropping out wasn't what I feared. What I truly feared was the psychological feeling of becoming a loser, if I failed multiple courses and ended up coming out with no certificate.
One of my biggest challenges was my health. I had these periods of one to two months where my condition was totally messed up, but I got better. (Presently there are clinical proofs of those periods where my body experienced severe crises). I'm beginning to think that sometimes failure back then was not something I wanted, but I did this at the expense of my health, but there were people who had all it takes, and yet their failure never bothered them, even though they never had excuses. I won't lie, I'm an overthinker. Back in the day, being broke scared, and I worked my ass out.
Doing multiple jobs at the expense of my health. I sometimes wish failure never scared me. While this isn't a good thing, I just think I want to live a life where my failings or condition (health-wise) never bothered me. Since I lost my only sibling, I've gone from worrying about being in lack, to worrying about my overall health. It's like I spent years ignoring my body while chasing after things that don't matter.
A lot of things indeed matter. However, I felt I did too much, and now the evidence of my hustling days are beginning to reflect on my overall health. There are people I envy their lives. They're in one terrible condition or the other, but they just prefer to take their life as it comes. While this might be me. I think my years of being overly careful and extremely calculative have made it difficult for me to take life as it comes.
Just over a year, I celebrated being 30. I think I attributed this to being carefree, but these days, I can no longer see myself as that. I've got bigger challenges, and sometimes it prevents me from just getting out of bed. Now, it's easier on the outside to be totally dismissive; say things like. "Oh it gets better, time does the magic", but it's been 4 months now and my life hasn't gotten better. If anything, I now find less motivation to get out of bed.
While there are perks to never caring about anything. I attribute this nature to the psychological and sociological parameters that surrounded my upbringing. However, if there is anything that just allows me to leave this mental state, it'll be worth it.

I wasn't very well at school but I did reading for passing the exams. After that I did same in College but in my financial situation I am doing whatever I can. And I am still doing many things which are not suitable for me but still doing.
You're right 👍
College isn't easy to be very honest, but good you confirmed that you did read
You have to stay strong this time. I love your article, it's nice
Thank you
Omo, this is the real fact you are sharing. I have been facing this recently too. I was bothered about not falling for myself or my parents. Likewise, I sometimes go so hard on myself that my brain breaks down. Even at that, I won't still want to rest because I wanted to meet up with whatever will make me what I want to be. Sincerely, good health can never be underrated if one wants to have better health when we all decide to rest. I hope you get yourself back, brother.
Thank you. Well I achieved some things at the expense of my health, and now I think it's not worth it. For someone who had quite the ill health, I should have listened to my body and taken care. I think you should also do. Sometimes, just take care of your body
Yeah I will actually do that because it's when we have good health we can do anything we want to do.. take care of yourself brother. It's never too late to do that
I don’t know what to say but I feel some of the things you’ve done before or having a double job affected you a bit too coupled with the health issues that you are currently facing
I don’t know how to put it but they work together or hand in hand
Just don’t put it in your mind because I know everything will be alright
Thank you o
Some hustles come at a huge cost to our body, because what we lose is much more than what we gain from it. I think life can put us in such situations where we don't have much of a choice in how we hustle. However, getting stuck in it or accepting it as the only way can be dangerous.
Some experiences can numb our feelings and I often try extending it to not feel much, but it eventually wears out.
Exactly, how we hustle sometimes is mainly dependent on the things that surrounds us. The bills, the life we need to pay for, living expenses, family and so many other things.
Mentally we might be tired of that rat race, but we go hungry when we drop out. But I've come to discover that it's not a way of life that is really worth living.
It's really a tough situation to be in when one wants to drop out of it but they can't. I think one needs to look what's really important in the long term. Sometimes it's better to lose the battle but win the war.

It is exactly like that, we also used to think about all things in the same way in childhood, but now when we come into practical life, life is very different, here we have to take care of many things, every time a person gets sad. Therefore one should try to shorten his life and meet less people.

I won't blame you for working your ass out, fearing failure and doing your best , overlooking your health. The truth is that if we are raised up in a family that money is not an object, trust me, you wouldn't have found yourself in that state. At least work hard for yourself but not overworking yourself without attending to your health.
While it may look that it's late to take precautions due to your current health status... you can still do your best to recover and have an improved health... you are already on the journey, keep living a good lifestyle
Thank you. Well we can't make or determine where we are born or into what background we are born into. However, a lot of things are not worth it in life when we begin to look at a different perspective entirely, but who I'm I kidding, thank you anyway, I'm here and trying to do my best for myself. Thank you again.
My parents always pushed for me to do better in school because they thought it was very important. I am kind of glad that the financial aid from the government cut down the costs that I did have to pay so it never affected me negatively much. Either way, getting old does suck and I find myself not using much of what I learned in school.
There isn't any financial aid from the government here and if anyone chose to be unserious with their education, then they'd still have to do it out of their own pocket too. But even so, it's still okay having the cost cut down for you.
