Why is it assumed you have to do things in life you don't want to do or don't feel like doing? |

Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.

We are almost always doing things that we want to do. |

"You Can't, You Won't And You Don't Stop"Lucid Goals: [Ask a DC: "Am I dreaming?"] [Ask a DC: "What are you?"]
But I don't want to do dishes, I just want to eat on clean dishes. I don't enjoy the act of doing dishes, nor laundry. More importantly, there is basic resistance against doing chores. |

I guess I did doge your question. I dunno. It doesn't computer for me, I always think its just how our world works. |

The answer is I willingly obey the law of inertia (AKA the law of Lazyness). |

hit the "go advanced" button before you hit "post" and you, hopfully won't double post. That used to work for me befor all the changes. Now I can just hit post without getting a double post. But Noe if I hit Go Advanced I can't post at all. |

I just think a certain group of people prevent me from having fun. Them stating I should do this and that, and that this is wrong and this is right, it's only because they're alive that I constrain myself of doing anything rebellious...at least until they pass away. |

Having to do things you don't like is not assumed, it's just the way society wants you to live and we have this subconscious belief that if everybody is doing it, it must be right, that's how moral rights and wrongs come about. |
|
Well the stuff that makes you like doing something (dopamine, serotonin, and others I guess) and the things that trigger their release have their constraints, so I guess you do have to not like doing things sometimes, especially with so many everyday things that could easily be seen as mundane. Any moment could be seen as a chance to progress and enjoy yourself, though, so it really depends on how you define that. |

I'm not naturally social, but I don't want to be some fucked up, socially isolated guy, who masturbates in his basement all day, lost in some deep rationalization, as to why my life sucks so much. So, I force myself to socialize whenever I get the chance. Once I make that initial push, I enjoy talking to people. I just have to encounter that initial resistance. |

if you don't enjoy doing the basic things to take care of yourself it's because you aren't being mindful of them and what they provide. Try to look at the activity as nurturing and healing yourself rather than a chore that you have to do. |

157 is a prime number. The next prime is 163 and the previous prime is 151, which with 157 form a sexy prime triplet. Taking the arithmetic mean of those primes yields 157, thus it is a balanced prime.

Well lets look at it this way. Everyone likes clean clothes, but no one likes doing laundry. |

Double Posted ~~~ But read what I said below, you may find it of practical value. |

The answer is that you can have fun, or be without "dharma" as the indians would call suffering/doubt/angst, all the time and at every single moment. |

Well, the reptilian portion of your brain regulates how you feel, given certain situation, with various chemicals (dopamine, endorphins, oxytocin, serotonin, cortisol, adrenaline, etc.) |

I like doing laundry because the machine does the cleaning for me, if only i didn't have to go to the laundry mat :\ and have one in my apartment. |

To expand further on this: although some tasks may seem very monotonous, as intelligent and independent thinkers, we are able to consider the pros and cons of doing such an action (I'd like to say this is the same for everybody, but some people are too focused on living in the now to make something of themselves). We understand that an action, if it is something we do not want to do, can have other gains despite it taking a lot of effort to do it. For example, as Hathor said here, she hates washing the dishes herself but she realises that she has to do it. This is because she knows that from washing the dishes, she will be able to eat food off of a nice, bacteria free (almost) dish so she will not get infected by anything in the long run. She also knows that if she does not do the dishes, she will have other negative effects which far out-way the positives: pots piling up and becoming unsightly and socially unacceptable, could possibly attract vermin etc. All actions have some kind of motivation to them and it is that ability to judge the pros and cons of doing an action that allow us to do tasks that we don't necessarily want to do, such as staying in school and studying hard. |
