I have been on the quest for winning at life for a long time. But nothing could prepare me for a run-in with a lesswrongian.
My life has been turned upside-down, it turns out that every aspect of my life can be considerably improved or upgraded, but there is so much to do that I'm completely overwhelmed by all there is to do.
The improvement to-do list is a mile long and I've currently reached the point where I'd rather wallow in self-pity than actually get up and do something...
I have trouble sleeping because I worry about all the things I'm not doing, and then when I'm awake I'm stuck on sites like lesswrong pressing F5 all day long in the hopes that a new post will save me...
Help,Please.
I cannot talk to this LWer at all anymore. I've been talking to some of the LWérs on the IRC channel with some success.
Ah, that's too bad. Face-to-face is best for personal improvement discussions, followed by video chat- you might see if some of your IRC friends are willing to talk that way. (Nonverbal communication can be key in picking up on the stuff you're not aware you're thinking.)
