Self improvement is essentially surrendering the present by deferring hopes for fulfillment towards an unspecified future date. The idea is that although you have to grind for the time being, hopefully your investment will be rewarded with a brighter future. The fundamental problem with this is that it assumes that if unchanged, the quality of your life in the future will be the same now. However, in reality your time is a limited and depreciating asset. By neglecting the present, you are only bringing yourself closer to death. In this sense, self improvement is actually suicide. Furthermore, any gains you make will be negated by the fact that you are older and your body is breaking down, and you will also have less time to enjoy what you labored for.
This is why I despise the cope that "men age like wine" and "life for men only really starts after 30". Because it's little consolation to me if my life is a little better if I have to enjoy it as a boomer, while young chads in the confidence of their youths are living their lives to their fullest. I don't care if I am gonna out earn them at some point. At some point, everything you do means fuckall. Everything feels a million times better when you are young. The sex young chads are having is a million times more pleasurable than the sex looksmaxxed moneymaxxed boomers are having.
I don't actually think that the idea of mortgaging some of your time to make the rest better is necessarily a bad idea. But it's retarded to give away your BEST time, the only time that actually matters, to make your life as a sterile old boomer a little better. No, instead of worsening your youth for a better later half of your life, you should cauterize your future in exchange for a better present. I don't plan on living to old age. I'm gonna go all out on debtmaxxing, drugmaxxing, LDARmaxxing, everything I can to live a better life NOW at the expense of cutting out those worthless boomer years I don't even want anyway.
It's better to live a short but powerful existence than a long drawn out affair full of stale monotony. Because although the first one is short, it is entirely good, whereas the second is just a whole lot of suffering. So why would any sensible person want to grow old? Whose bright idea was it to self improve anyway? I actually think self improvement is cowardice, and arises out of fear for death. These people never truly come to terms with their own mortality, with the fact that all of life ends in tragedy, so they can never embrace life and live each day to the fullest. But ironically, their avoidance of the inevitable end only brings them closer to it, though they can't see.
