Your old lady cancer neighbor couldn’t agree more.

On the real though, my answer in everyday conversations is the one I will give to you in here: anytime you think you’re tapped out, or feeling that life has given you an unfair hand, maybe take some time to go visit pediatric cancer patients and listen to their stories. You might just find that you have more to be thankful for than you realize.

This is because this is the path you are picking in your life.
Wake up with the intention of having a good day, list 3 things you are grateful for and one thing you like about yourself. Throughout your day make it a point to compliment one person you don't know. At work keep your resume fresh and always keep an eye out, remind yourself you're awesome at your job. For fitness, try something new or set a new goal to work on.
I saw something the other day that said wake up as if you're on camera to get yourself out of a rut. A person on camera isn't going to hit the snooze 5 times, or slum around in their pjs feeling sorry for themselves.
Hope this helps.

Damn dude, 35 was great for me. Wait until you hit your 50’s…

life is like a box of chocolates....
What you're experiencing it the male midlife crisis. It used to be around 50. Seems like its gone to 40 lately and post covid seeing it in mid 30s.
Only chance for you is a hippy free spirited woman to lead you around the planet. Lots of sex and drugs. You'll be dead by 50.

You gotta just go ahead and start second life. I suggest you start by growing a mustache and buying a motorcycle.

At 49, I've grown more in the last 5 years, both personally and professionally, than I had the previous 15 years. I feel like I'm just really getting my second wind and want to keep this growth going until I retire.
If you start thinking you are "capped out" then you will be. Don't accept it, and it won't happen.

You have to get creative with your career, I am looking into adjunct faculty positions now with the kids getting out of the house soon.

So stop doing them or find out why you're no longer interested.

This all sounds like some "Low T," I'd go and get your levels checked soon.

73 here and began steadily exercising in my 60s. Best thing I ever did to have a great outlook of life ahead. That and finally letting Jesus Christ in to make me a better person as best as I can expect Him to help. It’s all ahead brother, just go get it.

When did you know you capped out in life?
Let me tell you something, I haven't even begun to peak. And when I do peak, you'll know. Because I'm gonna peak so hard that everybody in Philadelphia's gonna feel it.

Life is very easy, but a lot of folks just quit trying. I think it comes down to getting laid. If you’re getting laid a lot your testosterone will stay high and you won’t feel that way. If you’re not, then you spiral downward. My suggestion is to get set up in a way that you can get laid a lot. Things will start improving then.
I’m 62 and feeling great. My career as a doer is mostly over, but I’m an investor now, so I guess that’s a career. My fitness has improved from very good to great since I “retired”. The only downside is a search for meaning in life now that i don’t have to go to work every day. That’s a real thing.

You should not feel that way in your mid 30's maybe mid 50's.

I’m 64 and feel 45. Quitting drinking has made a huge difference in my life..

I remember 35 and I also was at a low period. My business went bankrupt, lost my best friend, lost my favorite dog, all in the same year. It was my dad who gave me a kick in the a** that rebooted (excuse the pun) me and I've enjoyed the next 35 years and haven't looked back. Sometimes we hit bottom and need someone close to us to get us refocused. Now I'm enjoying retirement
