I just realize that if I am spending more time to achieve the same things as someone else, I may be wasting my time.
But I don't really do or pursue the same "exact" things as anyone else, so comparisons are not possible.
That said, if I am writing regularly or reading a blog after midnight while someone is happily asleep, it does make me question my waking hours.
Do I work 18 hours a day, in pursuit of knowledge and truth, or am I an unproductive person according to 2026's fiscal year GDP contributions?
Sisyphus probably didn't have to complete tax returns. Then again, he paid his taxes in other ways.
