I like driving fast, I am an adrenaline junkie
I want to get good fast, I want to lose weight fast, I want to be faster
I have realized that Speed is cool, it’s desirable but sometimes understanding that good things take time is the best way to go
Consistency, consistently working out, learning, and improving is the key to being a better person
There’s no overnight fame, or one hit wonders. These people have been working hard for years and sometimes it takes a while for society to recognize their efforts
Regardless of what I understand, I am a kid, I love speed. I want to maximize how fast I go, what I do. I don’t have it in me to sit down in one place for long periods of time seeing incremental improvement. What I will try to keep in mind is when I don’t see results immediately is that nothing good happened overnight. It takes years of compounding efforts, sleepless nights, and sacrifice.
2023 Reflection
Kinda cringe only keeping it here because I want to preserve old notes
I cannot confirm nor deny this theory but I would say that I have had a similar experience in life. While I lived in Canada almost every weekend I was doing something new, going to a hackathon at an university I have never been to and even though I lost a lot I never really felt unhappy just dissatisfied if I didn’t win. Comparatively to now that I am in California I am not doing something every weekend and rather than feeling dissatisfied I feel like I am more unhappy, obviously this is probably because of multiple factors but that is an observation i’ve made
