Is it hard to live in the modern world?

Once upon a time, a person would wake up at sunrise, have breakfast and go to work in the field. No alarms, deadlines, or messages from the boss at two in the morning! But times have changed, and now life is an endless quest for survival in a world of Wi-Fi, loans, and fad diets.

Morning is the first battle of the day

To survive in the modern world, you must first conquer the morning. The alarm clock goes off - you press “5 more minutes”, again and again... Until you realize that you now have 3 minutes to get ready for work. You take a Formula One-style shower, drink your coffee on the run, and the way to work is a quest: will you be able to run between the cars in time to avoid becoming a star of the morning news?

Work: surviving deadlines

At work, you are met by a colleague who has already finished his third cup of coffee and sent all the reports by 9:01. Meanwhile, you're trying to figure out why Excel exists and why you need to change your password again, which contains 12 characters, two capital letters, one special character, and your soul. While you're doing this, your boss gives you a new task that “was needed yesterday.” Fun, right?

Eating is a mission impossible

In today's world, even eating is becoming difficult. You are told: “Gluten is evil”, ‘Lactose is an insidious enemy’, ‘Sugar is poison’. You go to the store to buy food, and everything is either too expensive, too healthy, or you don't understand how to eat it at all. And so, after an hour of wandering between the shelves, you leave the store... with a chocolate bar and a packet of chips. Well, at least something familiar!

An evening's rest? No way!

It seems like the day is over and you can relax. But no! Social media reminds you that everyone around you is playing sports, learning new languages, reading classics, and cooking exotic dishes. Meanwhile, you remember that you wanted to watch a movie, but instead got stuck on TikTok for two hours and then fell asleep to a car repair video.

Conclusion

Living in the modern world is really hard. But if you're reading this article, it means you haven't given up yet! So make yourself a cup of tea (or coffee, because there are still a million things to do), exhale, and remember: the main thing is not to turn life into an endless list of tasks, but to find moments of joy. Even if it's just an extra 5 minutes of sleep in the morning. 😆
