this whole karma/reap what you sow shyt. Ive always understood what that meant literally obviously but my actions showed I clearly didn't understand it.
I genuinely believed I could do whatever I want with no consequences to myself. I was fully prepared to deal with the outside consequences of my shytty actions and often embraced them. Consequences regarding other people and police etc. What I didn't realise was the internal consuqemces to my self. how fukked up I was becoming over time by just continuing to live with no morals, no care for my future self.
Ive been living like a true degenerate. I'd finesse anybody out of some money. not to eat just to use that money to spend compulsively on drugs, alcohol, nights out, holidays etc. I would steal from anybody. I even finessed members of this forum out of giving me money that I just wasted on drugs. Finessed good childhood friends out of money. Even family.
Now this wasn't all purely for drugs like I was some crack head and needed a fix. If you looked at me you would of thought I was just a normal person. Dress nice, in shape etc. shyt while I was doing all this I was competing in amateur boxing and winning most of my fights. I'm not a degenerate physically I'm more talking about my actions.
I didn't want to work so I'd get money in the grimiest ways which is typical of my moroccan heritage. Those who been to or know any Moroccans know what I'm talking about.
Ill give you an example of the kind of shyt I was doing. We knew this half retarded kid who was a bit off cus he almost died at birth and lost brain cells. So he wasn't all the way with it. Anyway he was staying in this youth hostel and was telling us about some weird old guy that pays kids from that hostel to suck his dikk and other gay shyt. This was a hostel for vulnerable teens and young adults. So me and another dude literally pimped this retarded kid out to some pervert and then took the money he earned from sucking dikk and split it. We did this a few times because wed get more money than just robbing and beating up that sicko one time.
I'm not lying when I say that I was a real piece of shyt. I'd use anybody to get what I wanted. And what i wanted was usually some short term relief from the pain I was feeling myself.
I was in a deep cycle of this shyt for years. Obviously cus of the shytty way I was living and the things I was doing I was feeling like pure shyt inside. I'm not a sociopath or psychopath. I feel a hell of a lot of guilt and shame. And those two emotions really drag you to hell. So because I was feeling like that again I'd go out and do some grimy shyt so I could self medicate.
Truly lost human being. Didn't see no point in life. Didn't believe in any future. I'd always assumed I'd die from the way I was living anyway. Now how can you make the right decisions in the moment when you have no sense of future?
This is what I learned recently. I have a sense of future now. I know I don't want to be like this forever. So now in the present moment, I make decisions based off what will benefit the future me. Like if the future me was another person that I loved, what would I want for them? Only then did I break my compulsive habitual behaviour. Completely broke the cycle.
Now I was living like this for a looong time and wasted 14-22 living like this. I'm 22 now. I'm sure most people already knew this or learned this on like a couple of acts of grimy shyt. But I persisted in this way for years in a state of pure denial. I really didn't give a fukk and that not a good thing like these weirdo self help people will have you believe. Them people never been in a state of not giving a fukk about anything. Then they gonna go write a book about how you shouldn't give a fukk.
