>>164024I personally have enjoyed close to a full decade as a NEET of my adult life before being forced into wageslavery.
This came with two realizations:
>I need more practical knowledge, marketable skills if I ever wish to regain even a fraction of my lost freedom.>My brain doesn't work anymore, learning anything new feels impossible. Interacting with things that aren't already interesting to me is torture, retaining information is beyond me.I post this thread in hopes that some of you might share some ways to improve my lot with a rotten brain.
I'm at the cusp of reaching full wizardhood, but I already feel closer to a 50 year old in terms of cognitive ability. The decade of rot didn't pass without leaving its mark.
I see many somewhat active threads on /hob/ and people often mention their degrees here and whatnot, and I'm sure it's not all apprentices posting.
I wonder, has anyone here successfully started on the path of learning in their late 20s early 30s or beyond? How did you or do you deal with the cognitive decline?
If so, please share your story and any advice you might have.
Stories of reaching an acceptable life for yourself after losing the ability to NEET are also appreciated.
