No matter how much you love gaming (I sure did), you'll probably regret the time you've spent on it one day.
Sure, you can cope by telling yourself you are "learning stuff", "increasing your problem-solving skills", "improving your reflexes", etc., but deep down, you know that's BS, as I did in my gaming days.
Once that screen goes dark, you have NOTHING to show for all the hours of your life you've poured into it. They're gone forever.
Sure, you got some cheap dopamine out of it. For a minute, you felt that sweet sense of progress and accomplishment. But that was merely fake progress and the illusion of accomplishment. Back in reality, you did nothing but sit in a chair while moving pixels on a screen.
Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of hours poured into mastering a skill that is completely inapplicable to anything in the real world. Had you devoted that time to a worthy skill instead, you would've been a master craftsman, artist, athlete, musician, you name it, by now.
It's not too late, though. You still have a choice. You can keep whittling your life away while moving strong, intelligent, capable, and impressive characters on a screen, or... you can become one of them.
Choose wisely, for time is the stuff life is made of, and you have less of it than you think.
As a former passionate gamer, let me tell you: There's far more joy, accomplishment, and fulfillment to be found in the real world.

For thousands of years, babies slept with their mothers. When they cried, they were attended to. Then two men came along: Dr. Holt and John B. Watson. They said babies should be trained. That babies had to fit the assembly line schedules of their parents. "Newborns must cry to expand their lungs," they claimed. "Simply let them cry it out." And that's how the "cry it out" sleep training method was born. Watson treated babies like experiments. "Never hug or kiss your child," he wrote. "Shake hands with them in the morning." After all, mothers needed rest, to attend to their husbands and households. Watson had four children. Three attempted suicide. One succeeded. And we still follow it today. Because once you convince a mother to ignore her baby's cries, you've broken something primal.

Masa aku kerja kat satu startup dulu, dorang create solution yang memendekkan tempoh proses X dari 3-4 minggu kepada less than one day. In fact, less than 30 minit.
Cuba teka penentangan paling kuat datang dari mana?
Okay la, takyah teka. Jawapan dia, staff dorang sendiri.

Ok, random interesting experience yesterday that I want to share:
Playing in the backyard with my son, when I notice some bees flying around a tree.
Take my son inside and get closer to investigate.
Here's what I saw (and what I learned):
A married friend of mine said "Everytime she used to upload a photo of her with her husband, they would have a fight the same day"
So she stopped uploading couple photos and they started living happily and peacefully.
