Sure, that's a devil's circle/negative feedback loop. But, especially for those lacking the mental energy to initiate this stuff, wouldn't it be good to have some sort of boot camp for healthy living/exercise/meditation, where a man in a hat shouts at you to make you do pushups for 2 weeks and you're forced to not eat the shit you've been shovelling into your maw?
This entreprenurial opportunity could only help the more well-off with mental issues, of course.
On a broader scale, whenever I read comments like yours, I wonder what the point is. What do you suggest people in those situations do? What's your alternative advice as to how they might improve their lives? Because all I hear, in general, is 'well, this is good advice, except it'll be hard for some people to follow it because x'. I never hear the next part where people explain what those in those situations should do before following the above advice.
Or are we just taking it for granted that there will be people who will just live in misery until the day the revolution comes?
A lot of people with two jobs and a rent to pay have no time to sleep/exercise/meditate/read/whatever.
A lot of people with mental issues have no mental energy to sleep/exercise/meditate/read/whatever.
