One punch man. He can solve any problem with a punch. An enemy?, punch. Cancer? Punch. World hunger? Punch. Fiat monies? Punch. Loneliness? Punch

But he feels depressed from a lack of challenge so he chooses not to do that.

Everybody has some unpleasant experiences in their lives.

People say things we don’t want to hear. People do things we

don’t want them to do. People don’t appreciate us, love us, praise

us. People go away when we want them to stay. People stay when

we would like them to go away. It happens to everyone. - Being Nobody Going Nowhere

Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants." - Epictetus

I have often wondered how it is that every man loves himself more than all the rest of men, but yet sets less value on his own opinion of himself than on the opinion of others.

If then a god or a wise teacher should present himself to a man and bid him to think of nothing and to design nothing that he would not express as soon as he conceived it, he could not endure it even for a single day. So much more respect have we to what our neighbors shall think of us than to what we shall think of ourselves.

—Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, Book 12.4 (tr Long)

“Do not seek for things to happen the way you want them to; rather, wish that what happens happen the way it happens: then you will be happy.” - Epictetus

The Wanderer said—

⁠"**One adequate support**

**For the calamities of mortal life**

**Exists, one only;—an assured belief**

**That the procession of our fate, howe'er**

**Sad or disturbed, is ordered**

"When sorely provoked and out of patience, remember that man’s life is but for a moment; a little while, and we all lie stretched in death."

Huh... that actually makes sense. I'm a huge Bostrom fan, but he's declined to elaborate on this topic, despite having a huge reservoir of thought on it.
