Overcoming Laziness and Finding Passion
Adam Price and Brett McKay discuss how laziness in young men is often a cover for deeper issues like fear and self-doubt.

I have a question about this episode Rick Doblin: Psychedelics | Lex Fridman Podcast #202 and this clip Finding Your Passion. Many older people seem to take unmerited pride in the mere 'fact that they are adults.' When youth comes crashing in on them with enthusiasms and ideals, they put on their most patronizing smiles, pat the young man or the young woman on the shoulder, and in a worldly wise sort of way send them out with what they call their blessing. But—as every young person knows—that is not a blessing; it is a cold shower. What they have really said to you is this: "You're young. Enjoy your enthusiasms and your ideals while you can. For when you grow up and get out in the world you will know better." And the tragedy is that so many young people do just that: they do grow up and, growing up, they grow away from their enthusiasms and from their ideals. That is one reason why the world into which they go gets better so slowly. What are your thoughts on this perspective?
