What if you already know enough?

How many times do you stop yourself each day to think about stuff? Do you even think during the day? Honestly, I’ve realized that I don’t spend as much time as necessary thinking about the next steps. My routine looks like this:

Wake up -> Cook something quick while thinking for a few minutes about random stuff -> Go to my desk, eat while watching youtube or twitch -> Go to reddit or consume more content -> Repeat

That’s the cycle of death. You get stuck in the consumption cycle the moment you wake up to the moment you sleep. A never ending cycle that consumes your life away month after month, year after year. Your cycle probably looks similar. How is that positive for your life? Where do you think it will lead you? Let me tell you: nowhere good and here’s why.

Everyday is costing you energy, time and money. The more time you spend stuck in this consumption cycle, the more money you lose. It makes sense if you think about it. Your rent is paid monthly which means you’re paying for each day you’re living at your apartment.

For instance, I pay 500€ rent with some extras that I won’t count for simplicity. If we consider that each month is 30 days, 500 / 30 = about 17 euros per day.

Can you afford to lose 17 euros each day of your life just for existing? It may seem low but that payment…
