  • Hey there, subject aside, I think you need to review what you truly think is important in your life. Based on this post you seem to feel a lot of pressure to succeed, but what success really means is up to you, not anyone else. I found the book “Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck” to be helpful on this subject; as for the title it’s not about not giving a fuck but choosing carefully what to give a fuck about. There’s some interesting stories on this exact subject in there, e.g. did you know that Dave Mustaine largely considers his majorly successful music career a failure because he was kicked out of a band before starting Megadeth? The band he was kicked out of was Metallica, so he compares himself to them and robs himself of any joy.

    There also is more than one path to a goal. Even when you feel like you’ve “failed” it just means you have to find another way.

    Personally, I’d find a compilation of such notes a bit morbid and quite sad. So much wasted potential because people felt that they couldn’t change, and we can all change if we want to. But it’s a genuinely interesting concept. Maybe others find them motivational the way you do!







  • So it would make just as much sense if a steel brush came out? Or a cylinder brush like for your dishes?

    What about a broom? Or do brooms not count as brushes?

    I think my thought process gets stuck on the fact that the parents both are brushes explicitly for paint, the same purpose but different form.

    My brain just wondered how you would get a tooth brush by crossing with a paint brush. Would the ‘guy’ have to be a dental scraper? My mind honestly went to silly places but apparently I hit a nerve.
