You sound unhappy, which is confusing to me, because you just listed a bunch of great challenges to work on.

Working on challenges tends to remove feelings of hopelessness.

Would you say this to someone who told you they had cancer? Or lost their job?

“I‘m surprised your not happy about hardship?”

Do you actually look at something like obesity, or addiction and say “ah, what a great PROBLEM to work on.”
