Do you get a lot of work done or just slide through life not accomplishing much?

Question

Anonymous · Accepted Answer

I find "work" to be grossly overrated. I'm sure a lot of people would say I slide through life not accomplishing much. But those same people I can take my wallet out and crush them with it. So who are they to judge me.

I spent the first 40 years of my life working for someone else. Now I'm in business for myself. And it is GLORIOUS. I can't tell you how much better life is when you're following some nonsensical corporate structure, just because it's "policy".

We all have to find the path in life that speaks to our soul. To some that's a corporate hamster wheel. And that's ok for them. It's just not for me.👍

At the end of the day for most days I feel good about the amount of work I get done. Sliding by has never been my thing…. You get out of life what you put into it….

I have accomplished a lot in my shorty adult life… so much to do and excited to start…

at 20? I was clueless… just completing my college degree… I did an exchange program to China and met lots of international students… and see the world very different from that trip

Accomplishment often involves intentional goal-setting, focus, and time management. In my experience, finding balance between work and personal growth leads to meaningful achievements. It's essential to identify your priorities, focus on developing skills, and pursue tasks that align with your long-term goals. Regular reflection can help you stay on track and adjust your strategies as needed. Persistently working towards clear objectives often leads to fulfilling accomplishments, while also allowing room for personal development and satisfaction.

I thank you for this question is perfect timing I mean I've always been motivated and I always get a lot of things done and I just keep going and going and going and it never seems to stop and hear the last past few months I just kind of been on cruise control. And I'm just not as happy as I used to be when I was motivated so I think it's time to strap up the boots and go back to work get some things done so I thank you for this question

Garud · Answer

I live a comfortable life, whether I achieve a lot or not, it will matter less to me. But comfort is more important to me, if I have to give up my comfort and do something, I will not do it.
The matter of emergency is different, I do not relax there.

VyacheslavSokolov · Answer

I work smarter, not harder and accomplish. more than people who put in the effort. I cannot remember I ever tried hard. No trace of struggle can be demonstrated in my life. I am the opposite of a heroic nature. Willing something, striving for something envisaging a purpose, a wish... I know none of this from experience. At this very moment I still look upon my future an ample future. I do not want anything to become different than it is I myself do not want tot become different.

molonski2 · Answer

Depends on definition of " accomplishmemt "
In general the very smartest people I know are certainly not the ones who work the hardest , the ones who do that are the idiots.
I'm happy to say , these days , I do exactly as I please , but I can do that because I created the vehicle to do so , it very dangerous to sleep less than 8 hours , these days I sleep 8 .
Also people relate time spent to productivity , this is not the case , I'm highly productive in a limited window.

NathanDavis · Answer

the less time I spent working the better for me... that has been the goal

because then, I do have more time for friends and family as well as myself... so far, so good... it makes me happier, so, I do consider that a kind of accomplishment, yes...

20 years of working 7 days a week for pretty long periods, but then when those periods were over I'd be able to slide from sales or dividends etc. unless you have incredible luck or incredible talent in something most people are gonna have to at some point busy their ass for a 10 year period before they can chill a bit.

AydenHazor · Answer

It depends on what I am capable of focusing on that day. I struggle with executive functioning so often I'll struggle to get anything accomplished, but the days my brain decides it's time to do things, I'll accomplish in in a day what it would take others weeks to do.

PeachyPie93 · Answer

I just slide through life, since I have no real want to even be here. I couldn't care less to be rich or successful because I have no want for anything since happiness isn't permanent. Everything is just a waste of time.
