life is like a game, there is always missions and levels to complete, 4 things gotta be good so you have a good life: health, money, relationships (friends, fellows, boss, coworkers, etc) and spiritual side. I'm a healthy dude, i live in a fine city in brazil, i have a job, i'm doing good with everyone i live with and thank God i feel awesome. But there are somethings in life i gotta succeed, like i plan to get the hell outta of brazil, it's a level/mission i gotta complete.
Maybe your next mission is to find some meaning to your life

I know exactly how you feel. I feel like I myself am either a failure or unrecognized talent. I sure as hell hope if I don’t succeed in reaching out and pursuing my dreams in this lifetime I can continue doing so in the afterlife. For me it seems like the world thinks the only ways to succeed are by going to college (NOT my thing!), being born in an already successful family (and depending on where you are born, and what era you were born in), or becoming a career criminal. Not to mention the success of others who seemingly cheated their way through success I can’t help but just hate them and their success even more!

See even if I considered myself an unrecognized talent, I still accept that I have not marketed or presented myself in an accessible enough way for any of my material to succeed in a meaningful enough way. I feel lucky to understand that it generally takes an immense amount of work ethic and dedication and even getting lucky on top of that… i just have this weird existential melancholy about feeling like i pushed myself really close to being able to be a lot happier with myself different times in life in different ways and couldn’t quite crack the code and now i’m like shit… i’m almost 30… i guess life isn’t exactly a game
