"yes, a university degree isn't necessary to become successful, but that doesn't mean you can waste your time playing games or watching youtube for half a day.

stop complaining about the system and get your ass to work. do something, anything. stop fucking around with your life."

...is what i told a friend and he hasn't messaged me for 2 weeks. i see him on discord all the time, playing runescape or some shit.

i'm 24 and he's 22. he dropped out because he was too lazy to go to uni every 2 days.

It's not a battle between being lazy and doing the work. It's about finding the motivation to do the work. And that's the only thing the system (uni) can help you at.

As someone who works part time, studies full time and still manages to find time for games and personal projects - I agree.

As someone who hates people putting nose into matters that do not concern them - that's none of your business.

@electrineer motivation is a great first step but you don't finish anything without a healthy dose of discipline.

@HelloUglyWorld As long as you are not forceful, you can give your judgement to a friend about their affairs.

@HelloUglyWorld

I agree, except I didn't write much context behind the story when I posted this rant.

When he's DMing me twice a day about how he's so lazy, can't find a job, about to become homeless and playing League of Legends 16 hours a day, I can only tell him to face the truth and get his ass to work. After all, this IS my dear friend that we're talking about here.

Otherwise, I don't stick my nose into people's businesses. Nothing good ever comes out of it.

Edit: He's in bronze 2. Just adding, because he'll never be a pro.
