Is it normal that i think "success" is a joke?

So you worked your ass of at college for eight years, worked your ass even further off at some nerve-wrecking desk job for 40, wrote a book or two, then golfed 'till you died. A few people you've never met know your name... maybe.

Big fucking deal.

You'll be spending the rest of eternity under a tombstone like me, and I've spent my whole life being lazy and pursuing simple, carnal pleasures. I'm an alien to stress, and regret nothing.

You wasted your whole life working because you blindly obeyed the instinct that tells you to do what society expects of you. You are a failure. Your dark, earthy reward awaits you.

Ha ha ha.

      This would only count if you actually drove a ferrari. Otherwise it would make you a massive dick head.

    So exactly what do you eat when you get hungry? Your own cynicism? I know plenty of people just like you OP. We call them "bums". If I had to guess you probably heard that term before.

      From the first day I smoked it I became very horny. I would always come home and have sex with my wife. After the birth of our 5th child she started to become less sexually active. This frustrated me and I have since found relief somewhere else. Behind a day care around the corner from where I buy I started to park to smoke before the ride home.

        how many posters of Justin Bieber do you have? Approx?

        Do you find yourself fantasizing that his genitalia are proportionately larger then his small frame would suggest?

    To me, success is a mindset. A success can be as little as going to the gym, to owning a business. How many people are actually SUCCESSFUL at life? Not too many

    That's an interesting point OP.

    But it's pretty much worthless.

    Scientists have done plenty of studies proofing that People with internalized goals and ambitions are generally happier people.

    I agree with this to a certain extent. My husband was doomed to work for 40 years to get a pension and then die. I told him to take redundancy and go self-employed. Now he works when he wants - otherwise he's away on the motorbike!

    I will say this though - it is not 'work' if you love what you do, which is why I work a little. It's certainly not for the money and I do exactly what I want with my life.

    Ya, you're right, i've put in a ton of work and made a ton of sacrifices to get where I am. But it sure is nice to have all this money that I earned. And it sure is easier to pick up girls and persue "carnal pleasures" with a nice car and the ability to take them out and treat them right. Speaking of stress, you will find you are much stressed when the bills are paid and you aren't scratching from check to check.

    Oh and by the way, it is absolutely awesome to be able to bring girls home whenever I want, and not have to wait for my mom to go to bed!

    Success is about achieving your own goals, not everyone else's. Sounds like you're more obsessed with other people's achievements rather than your own....

    Success isn't working hard. It's using leverage to make others work for you.

    I think success is in the eye of the beholder and is more related to happiness not a way of living for example if I want to own my own home I need to work that job I hate because it is the way to the thing which will make me feel happy and therefore successful however if I had no interest in owning my own home working a job I hate would just be a pointless waste of time however there is also the general needs in life like food ect and I couldn't see myself as successful if I relied on someone else to provide it for me so the job even if you hate it is still necessary to be successful
