So after 29.11 years, almost getting married, making a good ammount of money (for my country's standard) and with a good set of friends, what do you do when you miss failure? More precisely what do you do when you miss the old yourself playing video-games (be it starcraft, consoles or any game), when you miss not worrying about anything but stay awake. Unfortunately, it seems that nowadays it's all about what you can get, who you are and what do you have.

It's kind fuzzy, when you have people at your home for a dinner and they will say 'Wow u have all those consoles' but you try to explain how you just can't play anymore because you work from 2pm to 22pm and the rest of the time it's about you and your fiancee or going to gym because you are not so young nor healthy that you can just stay sit on a sofa for hours without getting in troubles with cholesterol....

What do you fellow TLer do, when you miss those old days you would simply do nothing, just open that online rpg, or starcraft, and keep playing, like you didn't have to worry about bills, about house, about work, about how you are going to be a 'better' person tomorrow, and by better quite the opposite of what you wanted to be when you first started thinking about making money ?

What do you do when you miss playing instead of having to worry about tomorrow .... ?

ps: sorry about bad english, it's not my first language .....

If you're working 20 hours a day, you need to work less. You will die from a car accident when you fall asleep at the wheel.

more money more problems. our technology has rapidly developed to make tasks easier but technology has at the same time invented more and more tasks for us to do. think about if you are a caveman. you gotta go make a kill and whatever is involved with preparing it to be eaten and then boom you're done with "work" for awhile. like that's literally the scope of your responsibilities. the more badass shit we invent that motivates us to spend more hours at work the more complicated our lives are.

I try to remember what things were actually like back then, and I'm suddenly glad it's now. The key is to be honest with yourself about the times you're feeling nostalgic about, and when you remember the things you hated at the time, the nostalgia fades a bit, and makes now not seem so terrible.

You work 20 hours? 2 to 22pm? Or is that 12 hours 2 pm to 2 am? either way seems you got a shitty work schedule compared to most people xD
When I think of something else, something will go here
