This is an oversimplification of a complex topic: People can be victims of situations since certain life events are disturbing and at the same time genes determine to a certain degree how you take life. Nonsense article about „positive“ thinking.

From my perspective it pretty much depends on if you are an internally or externally structured person.

I am far more productive when I am single, since my whole day is structured internally and I can focus on the things I am really interested in for as long as I want to.

Whereas a partner sets timeframes, which can also help to structure your day but isn’t very intuitive.

I love this question! I especially like that you point out to not being stressed or depressed.

How cool is it at a time where no one seems to have time and is depressed and stressed to experience boredom? Boredom sounds 90s, a time in which people practiced humanity! The world lays at your feet. Be active - draw, read books, go out, taste red wine, be creative, do photography, learn photoshop, play an instrument, get involved in an intense relationship with a friend, listen to classic music really loud, go an adventures and enjoy it. And enjoy boredom!

You are welcome.

Berlin schools, even Gymnasien, have a bad reputation due to Berlin's failed economic policy, which resulted in a lack of equipment and missing teachers. To get into a Gymnasium with a very good reputation processes are highly competitive.

From someone living and working in Germany - when enumerating your quality of life, you are living a good life! This is nothing you could get in Germany.

You would exchange living in a sunny country, where you own a house and your kids are able to go to a private school with cold and rainy weather (besides summer but summer is short), renting a much smaller apartment compared to your house and a shitty public educational system (because you probably couldn't afford a private school here) in which your kids would experience low educational standards.

Appearances are deceptive. Think twice.

Thanks for being that open. I agree. Is there a way to get in touch with you? ;)

•You are what you consume - People, music, news, etc. If you mostly consume the “positive” side of life, your mindset will follow. •Moving upwards in society is not as easy as I thought. “Classes” reproduce themselves in the dress of habitus. •You can only rely on yourself. “Friends” are stage of life companions. •Finding a partner in crime seems like a tough task - don’t settle with someone, who you are only with to not feel lonely. •Your phone won’t make you happy. Risk a glance to the left and right. •Politics will make you depressed. If you are not going to be a politician let things be.
