I'm the type of person that would rather recognize and deal with a problem right now than pretend it doesn't exist. So gents, I have a problem. I dunno what it is guys, I just ain't feeling it anymore. The insane drive I used to have - a burning desire to get rich that fueled my early online businesses and made me relatively successful just isn't there anymore. After shit happened and I was broke for so long, I just really do.not. feel the desire to be wealthy or even make much money anymore. As long as I can make rent and have a bit of food, I am more or less content. I couldn't imagine being happier if I was richer. I'm not going to pretend that I'm doing it because I am such a spiritually enlightened human being lol - I just do NOT feel the hunger for more money anymore. I just want to be comfortable and have a pretty easy life and just do stuff I'm interested in.

Anyone else out there ever felt like this? I know it's bad because having money + freedom is great and to be honest, I'm having problems finding the motivation to do anything I really don't have to. Am I depressed or is it something else?
 


Sounds like "Low-T" to me.

Hypogonadism

"Hypogonadism is when the sex glands produce little or no hormones. In men, these glands (gonads) are the testes; in women, they are the ovaries."

It looks like while you were busting your ass in the past, you were also getting your BALLS busted too much.

lulz


Pump some Iron or see the Doc.

I'm not gonna fucking lie though, I hate that cpa shit. I don't think the stuff I did was the way I was supposed to relate to human beings. I believe in karma because while I was robbing poor folks and selling them junk, I was getting robbed by fake friends and a lifestyle that ate away at my humanity.

Dunno man. I do work out. Meh...maybe.
 
Just think, if you don't get your ass to work, you'll find yourself filling out one of these things in front of some pimple faced 19yo "manager". Or even worse, some 35yo who thinks he's made it in life, because he became a "manager".

Uh, 4 day a week split morning and night routines with cardio mid day?


HEAVY weight for maximum muscle growth and testosterone release?


Lack of Nooky can cause your symptoms as well.


OR



Maybe.............as you wrtie and READ your WF posts it's seeping into your subconscious and depressing you.


Your inner self is asking, "Is this ALL that I am?"



OR



The Self Realization of the FACT that you're a repressed Black Man trapped in a White Body is starting to get you down.


lol


I know that for me, being a Lesbian trapped in a Fat Man's body has been the source of some Funky moods in the past.
 
pewep you have to find goals greater than yourself that drive you to make money. i imagine most of the guys here think of cars and pussy but that kind of motivation is low-tier shit in the grand scheme of things.

be a producer. money in essence is energy. if you produce enough for yourself just to get by then you arent really reaching your full potential.

complacency is a dangerous hole to dig for yourself and its important to set great goals for your life. think about not just buying a nice ride or nice house, but changing the world. that seems lofty and general but its really supposed to be. everyone has to find their own path.

i was in the same spot as you not very long ago at all.

Just wanna say thanks to some of the posters here. I definitely have a lot of thinking to do, and I appreciate the feedback.

You're like , what 15? 16? You don't have low t.
 
If it flies, floats or fucks... rent it.

Haven’t gotten past this myself, pewep. Money never was a big motivator for me. I got into this business for the freedom and to be in control of my own destiny.

I have a new venture plan I’m fleshing out and I’m partially doing it to prove to myself I still have it as an entrepreneur. Right now I feel like a garage band that got lucky with a couple minor hits. What I need is a solid back catalogue.

Additionally what is working for me now could disappear tomorrow and I don’t want to be starting a thread about a 18 month challenge to get back on my feet any time soon.

Complacency tends to happen when you take what you’ve built up for granted.

^^ What he said.

Money in and of itself is shit motivation for doing anything, IMO. You need very little to meet your basic needs and be free from the anxiety that comes from being under the gun and in fear of losing your home or going hungry. After that, unless you have materialistic desires to fulfill and the need to accumulate shiny things, you're not going to find much joy in making money for money's sake. And, like you said, ripping off poor people will start to eat at you if you have a soul.

And, I say this not as a successful person, but as somebody who's in the same boat. Money's a tool, a form of energy, and the most important thing it can deliver in my opinion is freedom. But freedom too is as much an internal state as anything.

I'm really trying to be true to myself and pursue my passions and help people. That's what it's all about at the end of the day. Think about how you'll feel at the end of your life looking back? Will you regret not having the huge yacht, or will you regret not being true to yourself, touching people, growing as a human, etc?

And, we live at a truly momentous point in human history. That fact deserves a tremendous amount of respect, I think. I want to pursue a vision and be some kind of agent of positive change, if only in some small way.

I'm not some highly evolved being either. I'm deeply flawed, like most people, and I'm old enough to be pretty in touch with those flaws. Andrew made a good point about complacency, which hit home for me, because one of my flaws is laziness and lack of focus, which is something I struggle with all the time.

Anyway, good luck, and realize that there are tons of people in the same place as you. We all create our own meaning in this life, it doesn't come as a standard option.

Did I just write all that? :rainfro:
 
OP, you suffer from pewepism.

Pewepism is an attempt to hide one's inability to live life other the the life of a peasant by pretending lack of interest in making money.

Brain of a person suffering from pewepism often turns into shit. In extreme cases of pewepism sufferer can develop so called socialist mind.

I rolled the dice & clicked that link and was surprised that there was NO SPINNING!!

LOL
 
How is lack of drive to make money a bad thing? It is freedom if anything. It is only a problem if your mind says it is a problem. Don't let this BS forum brainwash you.
 
^^ from what i gather OP understands he needs big money, but he has no big motivation, that fire to go for it - that's the problem not the money but the compalency

What for does he need big money? He said:
"a burning desire to get rich that fueled my early online businesses and made me relatively successful just isn't there anymore"

So what if he is being complacent? Before he had a burning desire, now he doesn't have it. Those type of things come and go. No need to force them to come. That is a true misery, trying to make impermanent thing such as feeling, desire, emotion, opinion to stay permanently.

In my opinion just do what you want. Want to do ride it out for a bit, do that. If you want to be spamming, then spam. If you want to do white hat shit, do that. If you want to live off wellfare, do that. Just whatever you do understand the consequences and accept the worst that can happen.
 
What's really going on here is young pewep has realized he isn't going to get rich from MFA sites now and he's pouting.

Also...

The insane drive I used to have - a burning desire to get rich that fueled my early online businesses and made me relatively successful just isn't there anymore.

Successful, and "relatively successful" people don't get off work at 11PM or have someone else telling them a time when they are allowed to go home.

I have no idea if you're actually white or black, but one thing I know for sure, you ain't successful.

Enjoy your food stamps, faggot.
