Feeling weak

I happen to have this kind of feeling (gues that's what they call "anxiety" and "panic attacks"). I fight it with workout. Not the regular one, but one on the spot. Say you feel anxious right now and today you were not planning to hit the gym. Simply do something physical - find a pull up bar or do as many pushups as you can, and you will feel better and more secure instantly. Again, I'm not talking full blown training - just one set of some exercise (bodyweight exercises will do) max reps should be fine, maybe two. Also - get enough sleep. I was really surprised when my anxiety was nowhere to be seen after a good night rest, thought it only works for muscles. Also - try nofap. Make sure to note your response to it as I'm sure many of those that say it doesn't help just don't relate their good mood with nofap. The length may vary, for me its 4-5 days to reach max confidence. Be careful though: on days after that, confidence returns to the initial level, as if you've fapped, even though you didn't, so don't chase after nofap-a-thons, find your personal timeframe and stick to it. Cheers, brother.

Don’t depend on those little dopamine hits to make you feel alright and be able to adapt to change.

You are a person who doesnt give a fuck about their position in the society, or at least in the spheres you describe, like your job, that's all. Why fight it? Do your thing man, not everybody can be alpha everywhere. Sometimes in certain situations we just care to get shit done and move on. Find the zones where you want to dominate and crush them instead of forcing yourself to be a bloodlust wolf in places where you simply dont seem to enjoy it.

" He who has a WHY can survive almost any HOW." - Friedrich Nietzsche

ps as somebody said - you lack internal motivation in such a case so refer to the quote. Change WHY (internal reasons to fight in your job etc.) or change the fields into ones that this WHY comes to you naturally there

Uh you’re talking to a guy who watches workout videos but won’t workout

Sounds like depression. What's one aspect of your life you feel like you're behind in, and that's on your mind everyday?

Go to the doc, tell them you've been feeling lethargic and have been having ED issues and you want to check your Test and Estro levels. Tell your doc you also want to check the Vitamin D levels in your blood. All of those are contributing factors to low mood and low excitability.

Sounds like you are super comfortable with your life and need more motivation.

I think there's 2 kinds of motivation - internal and external. You clearly don't have much internal motivation. But you can force yourself into situations that create a huge amount of external motivation in you.

Of course you dont need a porsche, but part of you definitely wants it. Identify why that is. Try to figure out if you're just sour grapesing your way out of a better life because its just so much easier to enjoy the smell of fresh cut grass and a sunny day. Turns out that driving in the porsche, you can whip over to the next town and smell the fresh cut grass and sunny day over there as well.

Dont buy a fucking porsche though, not until you've earned it.
