I hate the idea that everyone has the same 24 hours. Like, do you have access to personal transportation? What about child care? How about a Wi-Fi connection at your home? How about the ability to hire people to help you clean or do yard work? My 24 hours and the hours of someone who has access to private jets, personal trainers, and cleaning staff are vastly fucking different.
-
Can we also talk about how society looks down and resent people who either don't have to or don't choose to work themselves into the ground? Like people who decide to actually use vacation days for a vacation and get remarks like "Well I never took a day off in seven years straight even when I was sick. I came back to work straight from the hospital. No excuses" like ok sis don't get mad at me for putting my mental health before the dollar. Life can be short and people deserve to enjoy it.

“We feel guilty when we’re not being productive” lordddd this is true. I just feel like I’m not allowed to enjoy myself anymore and it’s exhausting
-
Ah yes be like a lion, an animal that spends 20 hours a day sleeping.
-
I have two modes 1. Unhealthy procrastination. 2. Toxic workaholism. Both of them walk hand in hand. So yeah, I am screwing myself everyday.

My grandpa overworked his entire life and saved everything so he can enjoy his retirement but he got cancer and never got to see his retirement. Sometimes working for the future isn't the answer.

American work culture has become: squeeze every drop of profit from the worker and once they burn out, replace them with another workhorse.

Fun fact: the term Meritocracy was coined by an author who meant it as satire that meant to point out how the wealthy have always had more resources and create the illusion of more hard work.
-
The scary thing is that this really all starts when you are a kid/teen. We do so many hours of homework in high school with so many extracurriculars so that we can even GET IN to college, never mind the jobs a lot of us have to work in order to pay for it. As a High School student, getting 5-6 hours of sleep is the norm, and if you get 7 or up, you are considered lucky. It’s so screwed up
-
Hobbies really are underrated. If you ask hustle culture proponents, they'll say you're not working hard enough if you aren't getting paid to do what you love, but have they ever considered that when a passion becomes a job, its appeal is sometimes is diminished? Nothing wrong with work being separate from passion, and shaming those who don't have the LUXURY to get paid for their passions is exceptionally ignorant and rude.

Dated someone who was heavily into hustle culture and was pursuing becoming an entrepreneur. He’d be so self righteous about it, despite the fact his family was super wealthy and it gave him a very obvious head up. He’d put down working class people and call them ‘the 99 percenters’ looking back he was a toxic person and the whole hustle culture is cringe
-
I’m so over people the word successful as a synonym for wealthy.. 😒 like success for me is having a stable job I enjoy and that can help support my family. But since i don’t have a ferrari, i guess i failed
-
"some people love sleep more then they love success" ... SOO toxic!! I love my sleep<3 Im still successful... and well rested
-
i literally got a "get rich with the millionaire mindset!!" ad in the middle of this video HAHAHAHAH
-
George Carlin said it best: "That's why it's called the American dream. You have to be asleep to believe it."
-
The older I am getting, the more I realise I just want to go to work, come home and not think about my job. when you tell people that they looked shocked at you!
-
I literally ended up in the hospital because of that mindset. I gave up my restaurant and started working for someone else. I actually had someone say how “embarrassed” I must be working for someone else. No, I was sane again. I had a life again. I could come home and leave work at work. Never again
