For you to not live in a world where you’re being inundated by all of the collective human stressors every day?
My experience with stressors is that they are relative, and they scale to fit the available worry. I’m stressed about work, but from personal experience I have been just as stressed about being unemployed or about school. Therefore the stress is the common thing - if it is common then adjusting to the stress is more productive than avoiding the stresses.
Hence meditation, exercise, meaningful relationships, etc.
After they’ve taken care of shelter and clothing people tend to work until they can feed themselves and then stop working for a while
It wants to stop staring at a screen all day and go outside.
Balance. It’s perfectly fine to realize when you’re too far in either direction.
Exactly, just got to find that balance. Like slacking off and playing games at work.
Or my fav: playing complex games that are basically a second job!
