Why Bother With Wellness?

I don't want to spend my time on anything that has like a sliver of inefficiency. If it's inefficient, if it's something that might not be doing something, push it aside and let's do the stuff that actually gets shit done. Like why bother with all this wellness? If you can get hit by a bus. You can follow on your head. Something horrible could happen to you tonight. And then what good was all that shit? Do you think that feeds a little bit into the why bother?

Speaker 2
To me, it seems natural that you would, as an adult, have a skepticism around someone saying like, this is going to align your blah, blah, blah, or this, you know, this.
Speaker 1
Yeah, I mean, I don't, yeah, I call bullshit. I also think if that stuff is working for someone
Speaker 4
again,
Speaker 1
that's great for now. Yeah. Something horrible could happen to you tonight.
Speaker 4
And then what good was all that shit?
Speaker 2
Do you think that feeds a little bit into the why bother? Like why bother with all this wellness? If
Speaker 1
you can get hit by a bus. You can follow on your head. Yeah. I mean, yeah, definitely. Definitely. Like I have other stuff to do while I'm here. And while I'm upright, I do not want to be spending my time picking out my powders.
Speaker 2
You know, partially because you just fundamentally believe that there's no way those powders are really doing anything or.
Speaker 1
Yeah, no, that's totally right. But also,
Speaker 4
yeah, I don't want to spend my time on anything that has
Speaker 1
like a sliver of inefficiency. I don't want to spend my time on anything inefficient. If it's inefficient, if it's something that might not be doing something,
Speaker 4
push it aside and let's do the stuff that actually gets shit done or
Speaker 1
is like a real experience in the world that I don't enjoy the wishful thinking, the time wasted on wishful thinking.
