Are you a failure if you don't live in silicon valley or picrelated?

In a globalised world it does not matter from where you work.
New York, London, Silicon Valley and similar places are only for showing off.

It depends what your definition of success is

>big city citizen

You've never lived in a big city havn't you?
All the lowest scum of society is concentrated there, and the level of stress for the amount of people there is is annoying to unbearable for the non-subhuman people or non-normies.

have you*?

what is so appealing about them? Crowded space where people are loosing their mind, because they rush and rush towards an abstract goal never really understanding what the life is really about. It is so poluted, air, noise, food, thought wise. As a child, yes, it was interested in this sort of environment, but as I grew, I understood what is life and what it is about, I am looking for suburb, country side area now.

I just came home from a month long trip and stay in London. Wouldn't want to live there for much longer to be honest. It's not the worst city in the world but also very not much my thing.

also, failure by what standards? Failure to whom? What do you mean by ''failure'? I recommend clearing your mind and getting in touch with reality, it is obvious, and trust yourself. You are not here to prove anything to someone or in that matter of fact, to anyone at all. If you will try to make your life up by other standards and meaningless expectations - your life will be a hell, why not make heaven out of it? By simply giving less fucks about anything, in the end you will have to give it all up, everything in this case, everything ... see the positive side of this, do what make you feel good, and before you need anything, ask yourself again - do you REALLY need it? In most cases the answer will be - no. Do something cool
