It pays to understand oneself. Why do people want _every_ fig on the tree? It's because of greed, and desire.

If yo can imagine yourself be satisfied with obtaining just one of those figs, instead of only being satisfied from having it all, you'd have a much better time alive.

It's the same root philosophy as finishing one project to completion, rather than start many but never finishing it to the end.

I made the decision to take the nearby fig, because, like, it's there, it's a little green, but hey, enjoy it! And I did. And you know what? After I awhile, I decided I didn't like it after all. I spit it out. I climbed for another fig, and even though I got that one too, it turns out...I really enjoy climbing for figs, perhaps more than I enjoy figs.

This probably changes depending on who you talk to, to me idk if its about wanting every fig. I think its worrying about which fig is the best, and trying to figure out what "best" even means. and curiosity of other figs.

And how much time should you spend on trying to know your self, to pick the best fig.

Why wouldn't people want every fig on the tree? It's because of indifference and lack of passion.

In a world where aging was solved, we could get every one of them. And it wouldn't be greed, it would be just living.

Figs are disgusting. Now I'll try and visualize desirable kinds of things as fig trees, making it easier to quickly pass them up and go for something I'd want more. Thanks.

People want lots of different figs because they’re good, and it’s hard to choose.

Write down the things you love and find an intersection or invent that intersection. You can't enjoy them all 100% but you don't have to leave all the things you love behind.

And I'm in a 3rd world country making 3rd world salary.

Sure I'd like to get myself into big tech (not necessarily in America). But... I don't even know where to start.

This advice seem to be for the typical tech affluent HN crowd, so don't take it personally.

I just felt like I walked into a Ferrari dealership :)

sigh, they can say "if you work hard, you can retired at 40!"

this make me want to give up anything and try any crazy way to get money:(

It’s pretty easy to get a PR in Canada. Once here, get a tech job. In 3 years you will have a citizenship and a easy way to get a big tech job in the US ( TN Visa).
