We are at a point in history, where we live in the world with the following mantra: I WANT IT NOW. I think this summarizes many things: - the egoistic nature we have - the high time preference we have - the lack of empathy we have (Of course there are exceptions.) Many issues stem from this. Such as we are impatient, and are not capable of persistently doing things for a longer-term goal. Two from many are eating healthy and excercising. Fortunately we still value these things in the form of being muscly, lean, looking young, having energy, etc. BUT, because of our high time preference nature, we are looking for shortcuts, and in many times can burn our fingers. Just my 2 sats point of view. Have a great week ahead! #thoughts #nostr #health #excercise
