Here's why depressed people don't get things done:

"Imagine that we have a certain threshold of happiness, emotional comfort, whatever, that we try to maintain. Any time that we engage in some behavior that isn't rewarding, we (as simple dumb animals) quickly go back to more rewarding behavior. This is the problem. When you're borderline depressed, you're just barely staying happy, and you do whatever you can in a very short-term-thinking kind of way to maintain that happiness."

Education is an admirable thing. But it is well to remember from time to time
that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.
