Often, when people aim for the most reward right now, they end up foregoing the much larger reward down the road.

What gives me more satisfaction?
It is possible Mr. Taraz, time is irretrievable, and we have it limited in this life, the minutes of each day are exact, no more, no less, they are already counted. Perhaps for these people, the priority is to live, and that is what gives them the greatest satisfaction.
Many talk about living in the moment, but they seem to only want to do it when times are good. When times are bad, they wish they were somewhere else. Because in that moment, they aren't satisfied. It is a fine life philosophy to live in the moment, but I am yet to meet a single person who truly lives that way.
In that I also agree with your point of view I have faced both sides and have wished I was not in those moments, however, I have moved on and just look back to see my old version and take the good from those veryyyyyy bad, life or death experiences even. And then give thanks in spite of .....!!!!
But if you return to similar conditions, will you be thankful in the moment, or be wishing you were somewhere else?
I think I would start living from what I learn and if I learn I become wise... I would stop searching to start living, and so...
