in fact, regarding the yospos demographic, it's probably likely that less smarts is correlated with more happiness, more satisfaction and contentment with life, and less of a likelihood to want to drown in sweet sweet beer every day from now until you die

like what? put a jigsaw puzzle together


my father in law loves sudoku. presumbly he's good at it.. but does this "exercise" his brain like it's talked about around the sudoku table? I presume the sudoku circuits in his brain are fine. idk if it makes him go supermarket shopping coz he doesn't enjoy it therefore doesn't do it .. wtf?


people call me smart, it's a wide (maybe shallow, but at least wide) knowledge base, especially around science stuff, that makes me seem like I know what I am talking about it real life. and picking up new concepts isn't that difficult, and no problems using computers. makes you the smartest person in your suburb

here in yospos tho, there are dozens of people like that too, only better and can see through my sad facade

the trick isn’t just to say that persistence is the key to success, it’s somehow to instil a work ethic too

I can only imagine how I might actually have some success in life if I wasn’t a lazy piece of poo poo. thankfully I can get away with doing less work to achieve the same outcomes when it comes to learning compared to others, coz getting my degree and registration involved a lot more “it just comes easily to me” and not so much “I just studied my rear end off”. imagine being one of those people who were both. imagine living a life better than treading water. lol actually imaging a better life is probably bad for my mental health

the human brain is amazing in that someone could be an extremely competent and talented driver for example but also thick as pig poo poo
