Interesting.
I've always considered time to be a dirty trick on a grand scale.

How do you reinforce time? You make beliefs and you have people waiting for something...waiting for rapture..waiting for that true love...waiting for the rain to stop...waiting for that dream job...waiting to get a girl etc.

All waiting IS the trap because it reinforces.

Not at all, we all struggle. Some more some less. But like you, i strive to learn.

You can learn volumes by paying attention to simply what works and what doesn't work in your world. Far too many people fail to learn because they desire. OP has a bit of a point in that by deluding ourselves with desire we can hurt ourselves or miss things that simply are not working.

>to clarify
Not that you can't desire, but if you blindly plow along ignoring the lessons then there is no progress and some people subject themselves to needless suffering in order to obtain something from someone else.
