I am quite certain that at least 99% of nuffians, me included, are living without any relevant objectives in life. And thinking about it I got curious about different opinions and reasonings. So, how do you feel about living on autopilot? My thoughts are that I am currently too lazy to care about existential problems yet, so I've been happily living like this.
Why set goals when practically everything gets sabotaged? Either by myself or others. LoL I've given up xD
i noticed about the autopilot while returning from school while i was about 13-14 years old...since i noticed i arrived at home witout any recollection whatsoever about how i managed to do just that... after that i tried to test how far i could enable autopilot and what where the triggers... My founding was that i could enable about 30-40 mins of autopilot and it could work on any travel whatsoever... even while driving..........wich is scary in his own.... since then i didn't used as often though, but i don't mind the autopilot for the menial work~~~
When you live on autopilot, it means that your mind ceaselessly wanders between past and future, and then you realize that you don't remember the process of doing some mundane task at all. As if it wasn't you who lived through that time and vacuumed the carpet... Live in present even if life gets repetituous
Im trying to not get into sutopilot..... im currently jobless and still searching.... wish someone with power would remove the corrupt so the country can prosper.
Not living in autopilot would be to be conscientious of yourself and of this consciousness. Thing that is impossible in long terme. as for no goal or objectif well live better, having more (materialy speaking), knowing more, working on myself, doing new things, learning. and it's so even if you don't realize this.
Haven't been able to do that since I was a high-schooler sadly. I enjoyed the sort of zen emptiness of it, I could make the full hour long walk home while nearly asleep. But now something in my brain changed, and I Never. Stop. Thinking. It's all I can do to barely manage to get my thoughts to slow enough to sleep, and sometimes I can't even do that until exhaustion forces me to. So no, some jerk disabled my autopilot. I have goals even though I know I can never reach them, which gives another thing for my rushing river of thoughts to swirl and eddy around like a cacophony of silent inner screams.
<25 i live my life as i want, when i want... >25 it is pretty much auto pilot...but the thing is im content with that...some time i turn off the auto pilot, especially in home when with my family, cant do auto pilot there...it is all by demand...
While people have time for something like this, i'm currently trying to not get in debt, a drop out college student, unfufilled dreams and panicking to the unending horror for the future. I wish i had lived like a fat, NEET people like you guys who have time for something like this instead of debtors trying to cut off my organs and throw me into some kind of illegal fight arena to fight for the death... Well, just ranting how bad my life is but carry on being so passive...
Lol, I want to live like that too. Life ain't being easy on anyone, that I ended being used to it doesn't mean I stopped being harased a single moment by this fucking world.
Overthinking for me is a trait that defines my existence. I wouldn't be me if the voices inside my head were to go off, fortunately I don't have problems with sleeping yet. Pills are a good way to have a week or two of good rest, while those weeks will surely do you wonders I won't recomment relying on them too much. I hope you the best.
