most problems in human culture thus far are caused by humans thinking a cheap shortcut is equal to actually putting in the work

additionally, it goes beyond even materialistic realms
people mistaking half-thoughts for whole ones
people not thinking things through before acting

ozempic, midjourney, plastic surgery, fast food, steroids

hm, most is not intentional, but the only way seen

the problem I have with this line of thought is that these people could’ve avoided the weight they have to lose by not taking the cheap shortcut of ultraprocessed foods, which many of them more than likely have lived a lifetime consuming: and while that’s not their fault entirely either the problem is the cheap shortcut of ultraprocessed foods shouldn’t have ever been allowed to happen: corruption in the system we have to root out

My problem with this is the implication that losing weight the traditional way (diet and exercise) is something that people are choosing not to do. Weight loss is extremely difficult if not impossible for many people for a myriad of biological reasons. There isn’t anything immoral about taking a medication that has the potential to help you with this if losing weight is something you want to do. IMHO. 💕

Cheap shortcuts aren’t inherently bad though

This !!!
A lot of people don’t realise that there’s no other way, no other alternative to putting in the work
The only shortcut, is “enjoying what you do”

I wrote about this in the past. Taking a shortcut will only set you back in the long run and you'll end up doing more work than you should have done initially.

That cheap shortcut never goes to plan. In the end you will have to resort to putting in the work
