I just want to make progress towards...anything Anonymage 11/27/25 (Thu) 02:58:07 No.304213

I just look at all the years I've wasted stagnating. And I just want to be building towards, something… anything. i want my years to be building blocks not nothing. it doesnt have to be anything big. being a great wizchan poster is one possible goal among many.

I just want to devote years to something and get better at it, and improve at it. But that only happens in video games.

i hate the feeling of wasted years. time slipping away. i guess i just give up on something. i start a lot of projects. have a bipolar manic high. but then i see its going no where and just give up. i guess there is a rationality to it. but thats how i got the wasted years.

maybe its because im neet. a job, you're always investing your years into, trying to climb the ladder, even if you're not doing it successfully. at least you're progressing in money, thats 1 thing.

i just dont have the endurance to stick with something im not making progress in, and thats why i never make progress.

there's no magical solution. it really is just about sticking with something long enough to see results and let your brain automate some parts so it becomes effortless. i've surprised myself quite a few times by just sticking with something, enduring the initial suckage, ignoring the shitty results and at some point something *clicks* and it's a whole different experience.

just give yourself a goal of spending /at least/ a 100 hours in the activity before you give up. it gives you a simple metric to focus on i.e. time spent, and you only have to show up. if you fail to make progress (unlikely), you can say you gave it a serious shot and you can move on emotionally. if you succeed, then… yeah, congrats, you have a new source of enjoyment in your life.
