Ok, so some background, im 26, i work full time for a small HVAC company, never went to college and live in a small town. I have heart problems, asthma, bad eyes, and ears, and i have a ton of bad habits that are likely horrible considering i already have issues. Work drains the life out of me at times, and though i enjoy my job its not my dream job, but i couldn't tell you what my dream is anyways so it doesn't matter really, its just a job and i'v had far worse.
My one good trait is i'v always been a hard worker, with all my problems and even though im a smaller guy i still always keep up and usually outwork everyone else, not because im stronger or better, but because i take pride in my work and try to do all i can even if no one else cares. Sure i could go to college and be ambitious and make more money, but honestly im happy with what i have even though its not much. People put too much value in material things (i know, thats cliched), and i do to at times, but at what point do you stop? I mean, if all you ever do is look forward to the next big thing whether is more money, a better job, or another purchase your not living, your running away from life. Basically what @armaan8014 said.
As far as habits go i feel like you know if you need to change something though i am of the opinion that life sucks without beer, whiskey, meat, french fries, and soda, but theirs nothing wrong with cutting them out if you can and thats your thing. I just always figured that because i dont overdo it for the most part and try to eat healthy here and there i'll be ok in the long run, you can go through life trying to control every detail and do everything right, but it dont mean you live longer, and it seems like a lot of work (and a lot more expensive) for what may make no difference anyways.
Not sure if im even on topic at this point, but hope this helps, i enjoy thinking about things like this.
