Examine this excerpt:

What things do we pursue in life? What do we want and why? How do we
achieve a blanance between working/improving ourselves, and doing
things we like, but in no way help us. Is it alright to keep working
at something, even if you know you might only make the slightest or
unnoticeable difference? Should you tell the truth, even if lieing can
only help you & your lie won't be discovered? If you have free time,
should you use it to study a language, read a book , or play an
instrument? What if using your free time gains you more free time,
should you use that do?

Help me to A. answer these questions and B. find a
philosophy/philosopher that deals with these questions on life, and
how to live it

When I was young, I got a lot of help from Socrates (via Plato) when I
was looking for answers to such questions.

Now that I am mature, I get a lot of help from Pinkfrued (via GA) when I
am looking for answers to such questions.

   All that matters is that you're getting out of life what you want.
The ends always justify the means. The key is to really, truly know
what your ends are, in their entirety. For many people, figuring this
part out is the major bottleneck in life.
