  • Music

    Write about your first crush.

    I think ever since I was about 18, I found this music that has an electronic feeling in it maybe it is my paranoia or just a gut instinct but I fell in love with it. I mean loving non tangible objects or feeling intangible objects should be a love and I feel like if the object is a soul or life we should care for them instead of what society tells us.

    Over the years the hardstyle or party music evolved into a happier feeling. If you listen to the 90s trance or old school hardstyle it has a darker feeling, maybe it affects our mental health? We will never know… but the feeling of the hardstyle music today is more of a euphoria feeling, more like a happy feeling.

    Either way electronic music helped me in my dark times and is helping me to recover on my mental health journey. There could be other factors but most of it is gut feeling.

    Here is one of my favourites:

    Restyle – Hate me

  • Sharing your energy

    What I mean by that is sharing your money. I like to share my money when I am getting a service or product. I feel that if I give my money for service it will make people improve their products. Some products may be simple and do not require skill but I think it is about the passion you give to the service. Not everyone has passion but it will motivate business or the vendor to do better slowly and that will snowball to the others as well as others will follow suit.

    I think this will make mental health a better situation for all the consumers.

  • Perfectionism mindset

    When I do things I do my best to make it as perfect as possible but not perfect at the same time. If you have a perfectionist mindset you will not always be satisfied with the results therefore your mental health will be affected. It is because you are putting all your energy into a task and not leaving it for other tasks in the job or not having much energy after you finish work which could be hard to be motivated.

    What I do is to make it, just good enough the task even though there may be mistakes but it still gets the job done. If you are putting your energy into work then the work you do will slowly drain you, leaving you soulless. When you are soulless and just cruising then depression may kick in because it is the same day in and day out hoping for a change. You may use more energy in the beginning but when you get the hang of things your energy shouldn’t be used too much as you have gotten used to it.

    It is better to use the energy you have left to do other tasks like another project or another money making method. Our energies are limited to what we can do in a day.

  • Being an inspiration to others

    There is a big mental health crisis in our society, probably to start with your own community first. You may not see it but probably it is a feeling in our environment where we place things.

    Our modern society now has made everyone fear for our safety because of what is going on in the media. I guess everything looks safe and sound but it is probably a safe bet to look at people’s intentions in their mind. It is invisible.

    But how we handle it together is we should try and inspire one another, it doesn’t matter if you are a child or adult. Everyone has a role to play in our society.

    We should strive to give our best to fulfil a better society because of that… There will be few theft or break ins which everyone is trying to survive. It is best to share our wealth not only for our personal gain but more of giving to others while looking after yourself. Instead of dividing the wealthy and non wealthy we should try our best to bring them together.

    However whoever solves this problem will be rewarded in the future. It is more to do with decentralisation where the community or society is thriving in their own way.

    I will leave this to another day…

  • Coldness for mental strength

    What is your favorite season of year? Why?

    Winter is my favourite time of the year. It does make you uncomfortable but it also helps you increase your mental fortitude to hardships of life. Why?

    The coldness is just like taking cold showers in a less stressful way makes you cleaner and also increases your blood flow into your internals.

    This may be good for mental health in a way as you cope with an uncomfortable environment. It also gives you a chance to warm yourself up by wearing clothes as well. Also you are cleaner because if the environment is hot and stuffy you get smelly otherwise disgusting which also affects the smell of your own home in a way. In the cold, bacteria do not grow but grow in the summer.

    During summer I usually take cold showers after a warm shower to feel cleaner. But nevertheless the cold environment makes me feel cleaner without having to do a lot of maintenance in myself.

  • Making sure everyone benefits

    It is mostly financially and emotionally benefits from what they do. I guess this comes in terms of vulnerable people as we do not like taking advantage of people.

    There are rules in the government that we should follow like tax offsets or even investments. I think financial stress is the biggest cause for mental health and starting from vulnerable people is a good way to start. With so many tools online in how it  helps us or other people, we continue to have newer tools to make the world a better place with fewer conflicts everyday. Sure there will be new issues in our community or society everyday but my focus is more of a minimising financial stress  which makes our mental health decline. This decline is due to the food we eat or the lifestyle we have because of financial issues.

    But we should all work together for a better tomorrow, which I am trying to do my part. The better mental health, the better the innovation we get and also a safer society. We should strive for a decentralised society where money is still involved.

  • Having self respect

    If you are lacking self respect yourself the whole society will not respect you.. well maybe unconsciously. It is because you give off the vibe that you do not respect yourself or look after yourself.

    I myself do have some things to work on like quitting porn but I am probably addicted to the stimulation. I know it is bad but it is just hard to get it out of my system. I tried it years ago… Which went well for a couple of months then my urges hit me sending me to the mental hospital. I am not too sure if you are supposed to let out those urges but I will leave it to another story.

    Having self respect is not about having a flashy lifestyle or buying expensive products but it is mostly about meaning. From the time you were born, what given purpose were you supposed to do to change the world? It could be anything that solves the problem of the community. Small things like selling and reselling could be one… It does not look like a skill but it helps the one person who needs the product on hand urgently instead of waiting for the product to arrive.

    Another example could be offering gardening or labour services to another person which will greatly contribute to another person’s time to finish the job. So basically saving time for another person.

    If you can achieve this, then you will probably have more self respect for yourself. This will not be instant but will be gradual.

  • Going outside your comfort zone

    I feel like whenever I put myself in dangerous situations, the smaller things in life do not phase me. Maybe whether it is a money situation or places where it is unstable. I’m not sure…

    I think it tends to be your personality, if you have an unthreatening self like a giving  soul which is based on the body language you give off then you will be spared. But I guess you could be taken advantage of, so what I think is mostly base your intentions internally instead of externally where people can read your intentions. It is hard but it can be learnt. As well as that you must have a principal you go by so you will minimise the external factors that happen around you so to save yourself some stress and time.

    This could include following the rules or doing something that is morally right.

    But going outside your comfort zone like taking a cold shower or just experiencing the good and bad makes you a more rounded person in society and you have more stories/knowledge to tell to pass on the message, even if one person is inspired.

  • A personality

    If humans had taglines, what would yours be?

    If I had a nickname it would be watapple. Watapple stands for fun in whatever I do. Not thinking too much about the outcome and just going along with it, saying too much and not saying too much at the same time. Basically half truths right at the moment. If you say half truths it is basically not lying.

    In our society there are a lot of lies which can affect our mental health because everyone in the party finds inconsistency in what you are saying it could drive the person nuts thinking about it. I like to have clear conscious in what I say so I don’t feel guilty or rethink what I have done so I don’t think about the past.

    I know this method is dangerous but this could make the world a better place emotionally with mental health issues running rampant.

    We are always meant to live in the future thinking or present planning our next mission to what is to come in life.

  • Keeping an active mind

    We are always supposed to be moving whether it is physically or emotionally. If we stay stagnant our mental health is affected which will make us think of the past too much thinking of the good times. I think this will make our anxiety or depression skyrocket as we think too much of our past instead of looking forward to the future. As I said anxiety, when we think too much of the past, we will not like change as change is part of evolving as a species. If we think too much of the past we may not be able to handle our future stresses.

    That is why it is important to be curious to the world around us to minimise our mental health issues. I mean some people can learn fast and some people cannot but we should strive to keep evolving our minds to keep us young and fresh into our older years.

    Strengthen our minds better than the day before
