Mark Manson | Why We Do The Things We Hate @IAmMarkManson | Uploaded May 2020 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
It's time to grow up and stop doing the things you hate.

We all torture ourselves from time to time by pursuing goals and dreams even though we hate doing them. These are false identities and we adopt them because we believe they will help us be accepted or appreciated by others. Well, fuck that. Life's too short to do things you hate just to win the approval of others.

The question is: how do we grow up out of this? How do we stop doing things we hate? Well, the first step is having the courage to accept that maybe you don't know who you really are. Maybe you don't know what you really want. Once you're able to live with that realization, then you are free to explore your life authentically.

So what person do you want to be? When are you going to stop doing the things you hate?
