kano on Nostr: I reckon bricklaying, carpentry, and other skilled and physically demanding jobs ...
I reckon bricklaying, carpentry, and other skilled and physically demanding jobs should be a mandatory subject for young men at school from the ages of 14-15 onwards, otherwise we’re just going to continue down a path of creating a generation of absolute soft-pots.
It’s not that every kid needs to become a bricklayer or carpenter, it’s more towards it being able to unlock valuable perspectives & lessons needed to excel in life, also tho… because it’s fucking hard.
Seems like too many kids nowadays are comparing their lives to those famous social media influencers who seem to have it all. Most kids these days will say their dream job is to be a YouTuber (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, I guess), but their reality often doesn’t measure up, leaving them feeling stuck, inadequate, insecure, and depressed.
Depression among the youth is on the rise, but they need to realize that life isn’t easy. It’s not about taking the easy route; you’ve got to sacrifice, work hard, and put your mind to it. Implementing teachings like this improves their inner strength, endurance, problem-solving, creativity, and teamwork.
