Why isn't anyone else working hard?

I am in the Library all day. I take two 30 minute breaks to eat and one 1 hour break to workout. I am studying about 10 hours a day. I don't just study my classes I study investing and writing code as well. I go to the gym and look around at everyone being so nonchalant they are laughing, they aren't in a rush, they are making plans for the night. I go to the library and I look around at who is there when I enter and who is there when I leave. No one stays for as long as me. Even the librarians change shifts. I'll walk home and see minimum wage waiters outside having a smoke chilling and joking around. Why aren't they panicked? Why are they content to be waiters? Why am I alone in this study room on a Tuesday at 10PM. Where is everyone what else do they do

because you're going to graduate and realize all that hard work and you're going to get paid less. No one will want to hire you because you're an insufferable autist, so you'll be left with the worst job. It'll be a position with high turnover, and you'll probably leave. Then your resume looks like shit because you can't stay at a job for long. All that time you should have spent being a normie having fun, was working hard for nothing. eventually you'll find a job then you'll be stuck in an office where everyone knows less than you but is somehow being paid more because of a gappy job history

The blue pilled answer is that this generation just doesnt have the gumption of the last generation and if we just gave them dang kids the right education everything would be working hard just like there parents.
>whats the redpilled answer?
The truth is that IQ has been falling since the late 1800's with the introduction of germ theory, modern medicine and contraceptives. IQ is correlated with conscientiousness and other positive personality traits, meaning that the dumber current population is literally genetically predisposed to not working as hard. More of a black pill really.

max GPA is 5, right? its its 5, then if i made an equivalency to GPA, mine would be at 3.25. if i went back in time and i had to choose, i would pick "5 days per exam with a 3.25 GPA and fuck around the rest of the time" over "8 hours a day of study with no life".

IQ has actually been falling though. I’m too lazy to post the statistics but guess how many kids people with Ph. D.’s have? Its like 1.2 on average. Dumb people have more kids and theres nothing like wars or disease to cull the weak and stupid anymore. And importing the third world is the final straw california’s iq is dropping to lukewarm numbers by 2030.

You are doing great anon, but there are certain redflags from what i read in your post that may point at things you are not honest about yourself

> I go to the gym and look around at everyone being so nonchalant they are laughing, they aren't in a rush, they are making plans for the night.

Are you a gymcel? Bodybuilding and obsessing about it won't make you get laid, bodybuilding and martial arts is to impress other dudes mainly, if your goal is getting respect then keep obsesing about it, if your plan is getting laid then forget about it, just gym for yourself or other dudes seriously.

> I go to the library and I look around at who is there when I enter and who is there when I leave. No one stays for as long as me. Even the librarians change shifts.

Are you studying something that will make money? keep doing it, i also went through a phase where i saw many students of humanities or other bullshit partying up and using his time in uni hooking up, they are now filled with debt, not worth it, seek party outside of uni, it will be more long lasting

>I don't just study my classes I study investing and writing code as well.

That's good, however the fruits of that are subtle, meaning you will sense them in a few years, like reading philosophy does to your brain, same shit, money is good, but you keep complaining about being social, money won't bring you a social life

>I'll walk home and see minimum wage waiters outside having a smoke chilling and joking around. Why aren't they panicked? Why are they content to be waiters?

We most made it through crypto, waiters are utterly redpilled you wouldn't believe it

>Why am I alone in this study room on a Tuesday at 10PM.

People act how their brains are shaped to act and then apply moral justification post-fact. Some people need 3 hours sleep and work all day, permanently on the point of snapping and all else suffers in their life but they claim industry is the only virtue. Others party and laze all the time and claim the good life is the only virtue. Being redpilled on this is realizing it's not much of a choice, identify which brain you have and an outcome you would like and try to slightly tweak your behaviour to match it part of the way there.
