Why You Can't Plan For The Future @TheDiaryOfACEO

there are two kinds of people in life

there are people who like have plans and

goals and work towards those goals and

then there are the rest of us who are

like I don't know how these people do it

I get up today and I struggle I use a

lot of willpower you know I'm trying to

be like these people who are productive

we look at this and we're like how does

this work are these people fundamentally

different so trauma is the big

difference here so let's understand when

we're developing as children if we grow

up in a traumatic environment there's

actually something called the loss of

the future Dimension I go to my parents

and I say hey I'd like to have a

birthday party can I invite my friends

over sure next day parents are drunk

they get mad at me they're like no

birthday party so what will happen if

you look at traumatic upbringing

children can't plan for the future we

see this so much in like Asian and South

Asian cultures where parents are like

you got to do this and you got to do

this no drugs no dating you're going to

study we see so many gifted kids that

stall later in life because in these

upbringings we remove the ability for

autonomy when a child tries to express

themselves we shut it down
