  • Using money as soldiers

    I have thought about this one. Everything in our society whether it is tangible items is made by someone that is working. This can be machines, animals or humans. We constantly need maintenance in order to live a healthier life. If one is unusable for sure… Then the trash it goes but when it comes to money, nowadays we have the internet which then we can leverage in how we should use our money, working with the machines and people.

    If we leverage machines as people to do the right thing then everyone will be happy mentally and spiritually. We just have to adjust a bit in order to make them work with us. There should be a time where everyone and everything works together to a common goal but maybe that is a dream.

    So basically… One man’s trash is another man’s treasure as they say.

  • BBQ Sauce

    What’s the most delicious thing you’ve ever eaten?

    I mostly like burgers, pizza and the simpler food because I think what it tastes like is a part of the business or person themselves. I do eat rice, Chinese, indian and others its more the simpler food I prefer because I know by feeling what goes into my body. I mean everyone has always looked after me and the food tastes great, some being unique in taste.

    What I like best is a beef halal snack pack drenched in garlic, bbq and chill sauce. I guess I fell in love with it ever since way back in 2016 where the snack pack was fad in Sydney.

    Somehow the taste of food is getting better and even if it’s cold it still tastes more natural, good for mental health.

  • We are what we wear

    If you were forced to wear one outfit over and over again, what would it be?

    We should wear clothes that align to the occasion we are going to. Or else… We should align what we wear to what we feel like. If we wear clothing that is what should be respected, we would feel good at the moment but what about when the event finishes.

    We should wear something that we will always feel comfortable with because our mental health will not be affected by the inconsistency with the environment.

    We shouldn’t be told what to wear but probably guided into what we wear when we are infants. When we are adults we should be at least guided when we have nothing and when we have something then we can wear what we feel like.

    Do not mistake this! What we wear has a role in our society, all we do is just keep it moving.

  • Taking the lonely path

    How important is spirituality in your life?

    There are all types of spirituality out there, from religion or just instinct. I guess it is how you believe in one.

    I do believe in spirituality as a way to overcome my objectives because whatever you do, your actions compound into other sources of lifeforms such as pets or humans.

    I do not believe when people say meditation is the way to get better because I feel it is the environment around us that affects our mental health.

    Do your role and what you were meant to do in the world is key to spirituality.

  • Stress free

    How do you practice self-care?

    When I care for myself as a guy, I must keep maintaining my energy like moving around or doing jobs. We as humans we must always keep moving because we are moving creatures. Back in the days of our history we were constantly  moving or learning because there is always something to do offline. I mean online you can share your achievements or stories or either knowledge but the internet makes it easier to get knowledge with minimal effort. I don’t think books will phase out, only because books have emotional value attached to it but the internet, would just be read and forget most of the time I feel.

    It is hard to care for yourself at times but mostly just keep yourself busy and keep going outdoors where you get fresh air rather than staying indoors all the time. If you want to have an excuse to go out, there are always jobs available outside waiting for the right person. Not everyone will get a fixed job but it is still an excuse to go outside.

    This is similar to items that collect dust, if you do not clean or maintain it, it will become dirty. So as people or a person we should constantly keep moving.

  • Natural food

    Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood?

    In our community over here in Sydney, Australia everything feels more natural without the harmful chemicals in our food. Maybe it is the places I get food from or just instinct but somehow things are becoming healthier.

    I had Jelly Belly which takes me back to my childhood where I used to eat them except for the black coloured ones. I always preferred the orange ones which were more citrusy back in the days. Today I ate it and it tasted more natural as in not as sour and citrusy. I had a look at the ingredients and it had more of a natural ingredients like it tasted.

    But yes… when we eat ingredients that are harmful to humans then our mental state will be affected… Who knows what kind of complex issues present but I would rather not know.

  • Discipline

    Who is your favorite historical figure?

    My favourite history is the spartan warriors. They are known for their professionalism and discipline. It is good to always improve yourself even though it may not seem like it but doing the tasks everyday will compound later on.

    It is also good for mental health in a way as you get the drive and purpose to make your specific goal.

    Always be battle ready

  • 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.
