Does life get better for men after 25? If yes, how to survive

>>18179496
Only if you make it better.

hahahhaahahahah

no

life is all about money. your sexual impulses should fade a bit as you get older, which is a very good thing. Your general mood should improve because you're not agonizing over pussy as much.

>>18179496

why would it? unless you're actually working at a good life you will never have a good life.

This OP >>18179512

I dropped out of uni when I was about 20 and started working and gaining new skills, learned to sail, took up mountaineering,other adventure activities blah blah blah networked with like minded people, blah blah, National Geographic blah blah, travel the world blah blah.

In short, I am happy and live a rich life at 27.

Depends on how you measure success desu.

>>18179538
>blah blah blah I started changing my life at 20 surely that's relevant to someone that's 25+

>>18179538
You sound like a cunt though.

everything got better for me after 25 except for my hair

damnit it's just not as thick as it used to be...

Your life gets better when you work to improve it, but more crucially is improving your perspective to understand the ways in which you have it good, rather than have it bad. For instance, you clearly have internet access, so you already have it better than billions of people who live on the streets in poor countries, who not only are homeless, but have no way to find information on how to help themselves, get resources from society, learn a new skill, etc.

Yeah entirely, I had to change my pathway in life because I left education. I had no where to go, I worked a minimum wage job till I 'got my shit sorted' which never did. So I chose that I would give myself a chance to be happy. which was my form of success.

So it's entirely relevant.

>>18179550
So be it.

If I listed my accolades i'd still sound like a cunt, with the exception that i'll be an unrelateable cunt. Just like someone who would go on about how much they earn and what car they drive. You'd want none of that shit do you? you want practical steps to get started to get there.

Life owes you nothing, your mid 20's to early 30's wont mean shit if you do nothing. go to /r9k/ right now and look at any 25+ thread there use them as a litmus test.

You want no bullshit advice?
Find a way to be stable first, have a steady income.
Ask yourself and write down what makes you happy and what things you would like to try out.
Keep networking through those new ventures.
*repeat cycle*

Always remember that you are responsible for yourself to be happy.

The rest *should* fall into place.

See? this dude gets it.

>>18179496
Life is already decent for a lot of men that I know and they didn't have to wait until 25 to get there.

>>18179538
Not OP, but what made you take the risk?
I'm in uni starting to realize that the path I've been following is driven by guilt, regret and resentment to things that will only take me further away from happiness.
I want to separate from this path, but I don't have much to work with. I'm crippled human being as a result of following this path while putting all of my efforts to avoid admitting that I was wrong the whole time.

Sure, the stories of people who drop out of their set path and succeed is encouraging, but for every success there must've been thousands of failures who ended up just going back to uni after few years or turned into NEETS.

So what allowed you to set your own path? Was it a passion for something? Was it people you were connected to? Was it just luck?

I gtg to bed im sleepy as fuck. but ill monitor this thread if it's still up.


I didn't take a risk, I did it because I had no choice, it was a no win situation. I either graduated with unemployable grades and in debt.

Or I pick up a min wage job and accept that I wasted close to 3 years doing a job I could have had after leaving high school.

It would have been less if I didn't cut my losses earlier. Because, much like you I was driven by expectations that didn't make me happy.


Weigh up you losses, and if you can gain anything its the experience you had. Take control and accept that you tried something and didn't work out, find what you did well, what you could have done better, what opportunities did you take and what were the hurdles to your success. Acknowledge them, apply them them in the future and move on.(probably more difficult than it sounds, I know)

Now start somewhere new, uni isn't everything and you can always go back, hell I personally never want to return until I got offered a scholarship.

If you have a job, do that. work towards a new job if you must. Don't bog yourself down with what you do for a crust, honest work is honorable.

But be proactive in seeking opportunities, do courses, meet new people in those courses, since you'll network with even more people and it opens more doors (employment or otherwise)
You will naturally be drawn to something you are passionate** about that you deem as worth pursuing while constantly keeping options open and searching for new doors.

** sure you can be passionate about chinese cartoons, but its an integral part that you're honest with yourself. does it make you happy? If it does can yo support it? (hence constantly searching for new doors/ not being complacent)

That was roughly the framework I followed (to answer your last question)

Sorry if I sound like Im rambling, I'ma head to bed.
