I lost my drive in life. I honestly don't see a point in greater ambitions in life. I broke up with my girlfriend after it started to feel like a nuisance, and career goals seem pointless as I really don't value what people think of me. I just want to accumulate enough money to retire and carry out a simple life in the countryside. Carrying out hobbies I like to do, and travel around if I get bored of it.

What makes you anons keep going?

Same I just don't see the point of wagecucking. Thankfully I was able to retire thanks to crypto but I still don't have anything I really want to achieve, no goals and no ideas as to find a goal that I'd be passionate about and not feel like a chore. Just living each day as they come and finding enjoyment where I can for now but also going crazy with nothing left to pursue in life

Been there. It's easy to settle for mediocre. Losers lose, winners win. Please aspire for more. I'm so over having old hoopty's and it wrecks you long term. What keeps me going is the desire for a badass Tacoma or 4Runner, and get a house and setup a garden and grow my own shit, build random mini bikes and custom ATV tractors n shit. Or just a dirt bike.

If you stay in the comfort zone you hurt long term.

I "retired" (still work part time to keep busy). And I felt the same. It's all shit, bro. The freedom is really nice but I lost all purpose in life. One thing that helped me was going back and doing what I used to love in high school and college. I used to be a fencer and won a state championship back about 9 years ago. I know I'll never be as fit as my younger self but I recently ordered some new gear and joined up with a local club. Was fun to get back into it.
Maybe you can find something that you used to love? Did you ever play sports or have hobbies? Seriously, anything works but it has to be something that you have a passion for.

Post corona everything is 2x expensive but one of my best solo travels were vietnam + cambodia. I bought a cheap motorbike in saigon and went to hanoi stopping in rural towns, war places and comfy beach towns . It was awesome but you need at least a month.

I travelled to many places in the world. Now when I get bored I just travel around but still makes me feel empty, it doesn't feel like the first time I traveled abroad.

>>52504755
Everyone wants more, realistically speaking the current way I leave is less in many terms compared to the simple alternative I described. I lived in 5 different countries in the last 10 years. I just want to have a place to settle down and just to carpentry or some other stuff, read books go for walks in my garden. Social life is really not awarding for me, and with my personality I would only get satisfaction from it if I were at the top and it's not going to happen.

>>52504754
Sounds good anon. I grew up in a small poor town and all my ambitions were around travelling around to different and better places and make my life interesting. I have achieved those dreams to be fair, and it's not exciting as I thought it would be. I have missed out on more things while trying to find excitement in different places. It has nothing to do with places really, it's all about what you do with your time.

Nothing keeps me going the 10k I had and lost within a month was my hope and dreams for my future, I have cancer and I thought I could get to fifty thousand so I could rest easier without worrying about money I've gotta go back to work now and honestly I've felt 5x sicker since losing it all I think my hope and desire to get better died with it.

Jews are not a monolith. Hell, during Hitler's rise to power, there were Jewish organizations that made financial contributions to his party and organized campaigns to promote abandonment of Judaism and complete assimilation into German society. In antiquity and the classical era, there were countless Jews who enthusiastically assimilated into Greek, Roman, and Assyrian culture, abandoning all of Jewish tradition. Today, there are Jews across the entire political spectrum, many of whom are openly conservative, pro-White, and self-hating. If you are trying to do everything that Jews don't want you to do, you might as well kill yourself, because you'll never be able to accomplish your goal.

What are you going to do? When you are not content with your life, changing your direction is the correct way to go about it. You seem to be halfway there.

[Anonymous No.52509600]

>>52509205
your lack of enjoyment is not permanent either. The only thing in this life is the truth. Humans suffer because everything they are given in this society is concepts. Their names, their occupations, their beliefs are all neat concepts used to keep billions civilized. Living in untruth is worse than death it is suffocation. When you see through everything you will cease to feel anything but it can be peaceful at least my friend.

Anon ive gone through cycles of the same feelings of apathy, and the most recent one (~ 1 year) was the worst ever. I am getting out of it now and things are getting better. it can be very hard to figure out what you might be able to add to your life to find contentment, but's it's pretty easy to think about what you can at least remove from your life to eliminate negativity. at my lowest point, i decided i was fed up with feeling numb to everything, so i took inventory of how i spent my time and cut out anything that wasn't constructive. stopped browsing biz, got all the social media and other mindless browsing apps and shit off my phone, no youtube, everything that wasn't "reality". it's hard, and it didn't fix things immediately, but gradually it absolutely changed how i felt about motivation and what i wanted. you don't know what your purpose is because you spend hours at a time forcing your brain to intake a bunch of bullshit on the internet. your brain needs room to breathe and establish patterns on its own. you will never feel deeply content or motivated when you are locked into a continuous cheap/hollow dopamine reward cycle - you are blanketing your brain with fog that completely smothers any natural creativity, curiosity, or drive. it's not that you don't care, it's that you don't remember what it feels like to. cut the shit out of your life and a lot of things will become clearer. good luck

[Anonymous No.52511157]

op, try to recreate the most happiest moments of your life, that you think you *might* enjoy this very moment, and im not talking about tier-2 moments, im talking about the top of the top of your happiest moments, in my case it was going to the beach alone for the first time in my 20s, and the other was the first time I took a bus to go to college... it might sound silly but those trivial shit kinda warm my heart and make me feel like a living thing when i recreate them

I live in a different country and a place than I had those moments. And I travel back to those places now and then. It's true they bring some momentary joys, but surely they can't make you feel satisfied with your life. Even when I was feeling depressed I was worrying myself with the standards set by society. As a matter of fact those were things that were making me feel depressed. I just want to be out of it for the first time for good. I don't want to do it by living in bare minimum conditions either. That's why I try to accumulate enough money to sustain a rather civilized that has limited connection with the society. I think of going offline too.

[Anonymous No.52511472]

>>52511230
well, the point is to get you out of the hole first, because when you are in the hole nothing makes sense, i know the joy is momentary, but sometimes all you need is a little push to be back into the light again and your mind can start to think clearly

[Anonymous No.52512218]

OP, nihilism has plagued me since I was able to ask "why?".

The times when my life was at its shittiest, that's when I was the most motivated, for obvious reasons. After labouring on construction sites, I now have an easy work from home job and a comfortable enough life. I could coast forever. But coasting does not make you happy, deep down.

We have conscious thought, and unconscious systems that regulate our happiness. On an intellectual level we know money, women, whatever, won't make us happy. But on a physical level, those things still do something. You can't run from nature.

You need challenge in your life. What you probably want is someone to grab you and instill some purpose in you. The same as the plot of so many films; bored guy gets gifted an adventure. Unfortunately that kind of thing doesn't happen in real life. You have to challenge yourself. For all his flack, Jordan Peterson is right and has studied this for decades and anyone dismissing his central tenet probably needs to clean their room.

I was similar to you about 10 years ago. Then I got a wife and a newborn son just recently, and I've never had more drive and happiness in my life (especially when I catch up on sleep). If I told my 10-year-ago self what my life is right now, he would tell me to fuck off.
