  • Trying to live a stress free lifestyle

    What’s the one luxury you can’t live without?

    This is a concern to financial, emotionally or spiritually. When I have financial issues it is mostly in how I can maximise my profit or money but sometimes my emotions get the best in me because if it is too expensive then the other party may not buy. For financial concerns I put my money where it can grow instead of leaving it stagnant so I maximise my finances while maintaining my lifestyle. My lifestyle is pretty much minimal but when it comes to something that has the chance to go up in value I will probably buy, that is if I do not need the money.

    Emotionally and spiritually I tend to reflect on my actions and how I could make it better. This comes in terms of socialising in making the other party themselves feel better. When they feel better I internally feel good, with a spike of stimulation I get knowing I helped one person without having their resources taken away.

    But what is better is living positive spiritually, is having a calm state of mind which is luxury in my case.

  • 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.

  • Being healthy emotionally

    What are the most important things needed to live a good life?

    To live a good life it is best to live with positivity. Positively I mean good emotionally when you detach from outcomes you cannot control. If someone makes a mistake in front of you, if it is a small mishap, do not take it seriously because no one got hurt. Every life form is important as it gives you humanity.

    I think a lot of things whether it is things people say, most people take things too serious when it comes to work. I mean do the job or service the best you can but if you stress about it then your mind will go haywire afterwards thus not performing at your best later on. You also get too tired easily as the stress uses up energy from your body from overthinking.

    Once I overthinked too much and it landed me in the hospital which ironically made me worse but it’s mostly to do with yourself and how you should tackle your issues internally.

    But yea… The less stress, the less detachment makes you a bit younger emotionally and physically as your body does not go through a lot of pressure which makes you look a little older.

  • Spending time to recharge

    Who do you spend the most time with?

    I used to hangout with the boys more frequently but now… Just once in a blue moon. Maybe it is because it is my lifestyle or just that they are busy with their own lives.

    But most of the time I like hanging out alone in my thoughts to recharge or to self reflect on how I can do this specific thing better than the day before.

    I know it is not good for your mental health if you are constantly isolated because you tend to get anxiety and depression longing for connection. So at times I try to get a social connection around me, just trying to avoid small talk with one person at a time. I do like meeting people but when conversations get repetitive I just back out… Why?

    There is no meaning towards how I can improve myself and I just get stuck in the same cycle over and over again.

    With time alone, I like to pursue my own passions or just chill in my thoughts in the outdoors where I get a bit of fresh air while thinking about my next move. This isn’t about stability but it is more about experiences.

  • My brand

    If you had to change your name, what would your new name be?

    Most people ask if they want to call me Vic when my name is Victor. I don’t mind it as I am used to it.

    But I made a nickname when I was a teenager which was called Watapple and my friends used to call me that. I used to have it as my gamer tag in almost every game I played.

    Watapple stands for having fun while trying to make something of yourself without the stress involved. This could be for mental health as well because it is about pushing boundaries while having fun as well. I do get nervous at times but that only happens when I need to learn quickly on the job.

    If I am just learning at my own pace, I just do it as I go. So basically learn as I go.

  • Gaining knowledge

    Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?

    I do remember when I was little, I did skim through a lot of child’s books in class then we got a gold star.

    I did have a way to kind of cheat the system, or maybe I wanted more told stars as it was satisfying.

  • Finding connections in books

    List three books that have had an impact on you. Why?

    When I was done in the dumps, when my mind was not in the right place years ago through overworking.

    I took some books in the mental hospital to pass some time. One of the books I read was Think Rich Grow Rich.

    The book talks about how we should think emotionally or do an action into how we should live a healthier life through our lifestyle. It also taught me I need to solve a problem in return which would be satisfying to the soul as well.

    One problem to be solved after many admissions is our mental health system in Australia and maybe across the world needs more work because mental health is at its infantry. Well unconsciously… I am sure it happened a while ago but we are just talking about it now.

    I also read Life’s greatest question by Tom Rath and Rich Dad Poor Dad which also helped me financially and emotionally.

    I do think any books you read have an impact on your mental health whether positively or negatively depending on what you absorb.

  • Overcoming financial pressure

    What fears have you overcome and how?

    In my earlier years I have always been fascinated about money and how to make it but by bit. It is not much but making something online was really satisfying in the early years of the internet.

    I was trying to get people to click on my link and I made money from it. Ever since as I grew older I have been having this financial pressure to have this amount or that amount by the age I am at.

    This is probably due to the social conditioning of the internet.

    Right now I still face some issues but it is another kind of issue now. We all have a fear whether it is financial or have nothing to be a part of.

    But I have overcame it by researching or practicing daily at how things work in the stock market or crypto market. Now… I changed my strategy as in I am going to buy something for the longer maul. Before that I used to invest in something in the short term which affected my mental health sending me to the mental hospital.

    I think I was pushing myself too much to the point of insanity. Right now, I am slowly going day by day to consume some useful information instead of absorbing too much information which I may forget.

  • Talking with purpose…

    Somehow when you talk about something directly, just directly with different people, you tend to have less stress. It is hard to describe but this is what I have been practicing.

    It is more about being true to yourself instead of talking about nonsense. If I do talk about a lot of jibber jabber, my mind tends to get a bit messed up like messy in the mind which is not good for mental clarity.

    So I have been practicing talking with purpose as in what matters in the community or society instead of small talk. I tend to find small talk a bit boring and find what problems we can solve in the community more interesting as it keeps me thinking which also makes me mentally sharper as I think how to make the community a better place.

  • Socialising…

    Describe one simple thing you do that brings joy to your life.

    What I have found after being discharged from the mental hospital, I found more clarity in life. In the public system, it can get chaotic at times. After the first admission I started feeling worse than before I came in for some reason. Maybe it could be the environment I was locked in the first time.

    But nonetheless, interacting with people whether it is presence or talking, I like to feel the personality of each one because it usually makes me think afterwards about myself as well. Sometimes people say things about you directly you never knew you had and it makes you wonder what it meant.

    When I was a child I used to play with random people or with my family members.

    But now… I find joy in collecting things just for the aesthetics, but it is a plus when it goes up in value. It is just a personal collection I like to play or buy with so my room has that positive feeling when I have that item. It sure does feel like I am hoarding but… I am not so sure.

    But when it comes to interacting with people, I mostly have a giving mentality which is emotional for some reason.
