This is why people make fun of HN.

How to be a billionaire: Work hard!

How to start a business: Start working, believe in yourself!

Now that I've read OP article, I realize what I've been doing wrong all my life. I had disabled my "fun" switch. Glad someone finally pointed it out. Everything is so much better now, wow! Thank you!




I value this comment. I find the original article akin to associating a good "soul" or a condemned "soul".

It is hand waving simplicity against the complex reality of biological limitations. Some people simply have more endurance for the suffering of life, better motivation or better opportunity and environment.

I want everyone to live to seek their potential, but there is no answer to finding peace (or happiness) in life.

At least not an answer that can be communicated through words.

I expected the general population of HN to be well trained enough to instantly realize this. I guess it was my fault for tricking myself in believing I could find such a place.


Although the discussion here is pretty high quality.
