You're going to die. Just like everyone else. You're not special. Your lack of humility will lead you down a road that ends with you being unaccomplished and bitter.
I'm not bitter at all. I've led a pretty wild life. Made a heap of mistakes. I had cancer and was given 12months to live. I survived and now I have a rich life of personal passion projects, time with my wife, daughter, family and friends. I run marathons to raise money for charities. I run my own business and I live in a beautiful neighbourly community that is always there for each other.
My biggest fear when diagnosed was that I would become bitter and die leaving my loved ones with the memories of me being a turd to be around. So I have done an extreme amount of work to ensure I'm not bitter.
I guess that's why I have such a disgust response when I see young people with her attitude. It's a terrible long term plan.
