I married young and had kids young, before I was sensible enough to know better, as I lack impulse control. Same reason I bought Bitcoin and quit college to help build Nostr. The combination of low impulse control and a bizarrely-low time-preference feels like a superpower, sometimes, to be honest. In hindsight, I always think, Wow, that was a good decision. At the moment, everyone is like, Are you some sort of an idiot, or something? 80 IQ 🫡
I was thinking about this, while potting plants, this week. I really wanted an apple tree, and I wanted one *now*, so I just went and cut open an organic apple and planted three seeds in a flower pot. Totally stupid, right, as I could wait and go buy an apple tree on some other weekend and quickly see results. My MIL thought it was retarded. She's like, but you won't have a real tree for years! But I don't mind waiting 10 years for a tree. I just really wanted to plant it, immediately, so that I can cross "plant apple tree" off my mental To Do list. Just have to water and feed it, for a decade or so. No problem. I think this is typical Crazy Inventor personality, where you'll suddenly need to _do something_ and you just go for it and totally sperg out. 😂 I always do that with gardening, cooking, relationships, programming, etc. All in or wander off.
