I think my life got measurably better when I pivoted from "I want to do this myself" towards "It's just as satisfying to watch someone else do this".

So true! Works for a lot of things. It's why I stopped playing dota.



Stopping dota was the single most important decision of my life. It is an incredible game, that consumes an incredible amount of mind-space even when you're not playing it.

Dota - the worst 'awesome thing' that can happen to your life.


Maybe the reason I was able to get to 775 MMR was because it occupied 0 of my mind-space when I wasn't playing it :)


Ha ha! I bet you spend less time warching than you would spend playing so that is another big win(for me at least).



You just opened Dota Players Anonymous, it seems :-))


Ok, now I'm _really_ feeling targeted here.
