You said the same thing that all these self-improvement bodybuilders on youtube, who'd talk about sacrifices for muscles, dates, money, etc., but in a way that really matters and addresses the day-to-day gut-wrenching dilemmas. thank you for this, really needed it.

"Homeostasis between pleasure and suffering" : Welcome to the act of skateboarding :)

This reminds me of the opponent processing theory in psychology. As we indulge in a pleasure, the pleasure begins to lose effectiveness, while we become more sensitive to the opposite feeling.

Perhaps this is why buddism teaches not to pursuit happiness, but to pursuit freedom, and that happiness (or rather contentment) comes as a byproduct of freedom.
By making hard choices, we don't get immediate pleasure, but we exercise freedom, because we choose ourselves the struggle to engage and this gives contentment.
Taking the easy choices on the other hand, will always be so straightforward, that it doesn't really feel like a choice at all. Instead of becoming free, the easy choices leave us a slave to our desires, and their aftermath comes as struggles we didn't consciously choose.

Mind blowing but if this applied is to everyone there should not be hard working poor people who are just victims of cyclical poverty

Thinking like this for a while and it really helped me with anxiety, knowing that there is this equilibrium between happiness and suffering. I meditate on this subject for some time now, and it helped me tremendously to forge my path in life. I grown up pretty much alone and had no clue what to do with my life after school. When to college but didn't even know why I picked my course. I realized that I was making decisions not based on what my ambitions were, but on the most clear and simple paths I could take to be and "adult". This obviously didn't work, trying to escape the feeling of being lost just makes you more lost. Accepting that your actions have consequences and your decisions are ways to forge your path in life were the start of my reconstruction. Today I feel that decisions are way less of a burden of despair and anxiety that it once was, but a opportunity of freedom. Stick to your guts, listen to your heart and guide with your brain and everything will be just fine. Don't chase shit just because you think you should, chase something that makes you feel special. There's no such thing as a silly dream, but a life of running away from what you truly want is a silly life.

I got hit fucking hard by "lowering the level of human pain, you also have to diminish and lower the level of their capacity for joy." I've been in really dark places before, where I just didn't want to hurt and I knew it wouldn't get any better if I just kept going down that hole but I had never realized this. That quote made sense to me. I stopped feeling "happy" and just started being addicted. Now my life is on its way to a better place and I'm trying to make it as hard as possible.

As an incoming college freshman, this video made me feel a lot better about how stressful and difficult this transition is for me. Itās a lot easier to go through my troubles now knowing that thereās something better waiting for me ahead.

I think this video finally made me choose a decision that Iāve been debating and or avoiding for so long. Thank you :D

If you fill your life with "hard" choices, it's no easy life! Balance is pretty much the key to everything! Just don't let your "easy" choices pull you along!

To resign in passive nihilism, that is truly one of my biggest fears. To be in constant overstimulation but never truly gratified or content, in an effort to distract ourselves from the absurd nature of the world. To never discover ones one capabilities, because of fear of facing the dread that accompanies trying. I'll always rely on the ideas such as that of Seneca to push me forward, "No man is more unhappy than he who never faces adversity. For he is not permitted to prove himself".
