How do all the strivers in HSL cope with life knowing that

<p>However one could be naturally talented and still don’t do will. And the hard worker actually know the goals and fight to get it done.</p>

<p>I think it might be worthwhile to ask how those who put in 10% of the effort manage to show up everyday and actually do the work. I don’t see what’s so superior about that. I’ve got a cousin with roughly a 1.7 GPA and 35 ACT. He’s been so bored and miserable in school that he’s failing classes and losing interest in just about everything. That’s sadly common, just as it is for someone to have to work for Cs. There’s no shame in working hard and there’s no shame in concluding that something is a waste of time.</p>

<p>Also OP
Who are you?</p>

<p>

I could easily say the same thing about English. That is my best subject. Different people different strength and weaknesses.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>How can you be an idiot when it comes to English and take the OP’s side on this? She’s talking about you.</p>

<p>There is no shame in hard work when you are trying to reach a noble goal.</p>

<p>Sigh… one day the world will realize the importance of hard work.</p>

<p>Selfish answer: The person may be better off… But I care more for the certain things that I strive for. I’ll outwork them if they want to get in my way. Well this is academic wise. I only really care for my college major subjects now…</p>

<p>Haha why should I compare myself to others like this? Good for them, but I like the sense of satisfaction as well. Furthermore, “working hard” is also subject to opinion. Sometimes, I feel like I have been working my butt off even though I really accomplished little. Comparatively, sometimes I love what I am doing and complete everything in a relatively short amount of time without believing that I put in a lot of effort.</p>

<p>yeah it’s kind of sad we all have to compete in something that some people are clearly way better at. sometimes the cost of not competing and not working hard can be really steep though, so even if it really does depress you that you are 1% as fast at learning new things and producing work as someone else, it still might be better to tolerate that depression than give up on school. most people are able to brush that depressing fact off without internalizing it so much though. if you’re not someone who can do that, than you probably have larger problems (like clinical depression…).</p>

<p>I don’t bother trying to changes thing that I can’t control. My time is too precious for those thoughts.</p>

<p>And there are people that do worse than you with two times the effort.
Count your blessings.</p>
