  • When you have something to fight for…

    When you have a purpose to do something it feels like you are not afraid of doing things that are out of the ordinary. It is similar to when you have anxiety, that anxiety stops you from doing something because you do not have a reason to fight for the cause. But when you have a reason to do something, that is to help out the society, you will not feel like an anxiety within you like social pressure. For example collecting bottles have a stigma attached to it, like homeless people collect them. But when you have a reason for yourself like collecting cans and bottles is helping the environment stay clean and also helps them from going into landfills to be used as recycling, you will not feel that pressure.

    Maybe when you are first starting that is out of the ordinary… But when you find a reason within you… You will have an excuse for yourself.

    This goes for other areas of life and the actions you take.

    For a reason!

  • Less dirty, Better mental health

    I think since the early stages, our material has been harmful to our environment thus causing our mental health to affect us.

    When we have a dirty environment our mental state is affected. That is why it is better to clean ourselves and do our part to keep the environment or community more clean. If people leave their rubbish on the floor, it is our part to try and make the material more eco-friendly.

    How can we do this? Easier to say then done. I have found something which I will share in the future, some recyclables that are made from eco-friendly materials and will probably give some away for free in the local community first. Then I will move on to shipping them worldwide, that is if someone is willing to pay for postage.

    I think this is calculated but I think this will reduce our issues in society about mental health and all the other diseases in society when we have a cleaner environment. Even our homes could be filled with contaminates from the outside so I want to reduce the harmful bacteria in our environment, starting from my local community.

  • Coping mechanisms…

    We all have copes, for example like hobbies or addictions. If we have an unhealthy habit it is best to try to avoid it. But if you cannot then slow it down. I know it is easier said than done but try to feel the difference between when you have consumed it and unconsumed it as long as it does not break the bank. We need money to look after ourselves.

    If having hobbies does not break the bank and makes you feel good in the moment, go for it! It supports businesses and the local community around it. That is the role we play in society, that is to build and try to make the surroundings prosper.

    But somehow we do need to look after our physical health, so… I am a vaper which I should stop but it helps me cope with these anti psychotics I am on while trying to work out what to do in the future or presently.

    I do compare differences when consuming and not consuming, I just weigh the benefits and cons, but my focus is geared towards the more purposeful side.

    Struggling but focusing at the same time “memes”

  • Copper

    Do you have any collections?

    I am trying to build a copper collection like pure copper or copper wires. I am betting on better mental health the more innovation out into the world.

    More and more people into the world, means more headaches but if we encourage people to better their mental health, then people will be encouraged to start their own thing. Their own thing would probably be technology as in society now, is a more technological based society. Thus, the use of more copper or other precious metals.

  • The truth of life…

    I have been thinking maybe there are no truths? I guess it is people doing things that are unacceptable to society?

    But the truth in life I believe is what you believe in. Like belief in Jesus or helping people. Humans are meant to eat, sleep, and work. But when we have those things covered, we should find a way to help another individual or business to at least support them by buying their products. It is better than them throwing it into waste. It is money down the drain.

    What I find is everything that is made, I think non – inanimate objects have a soul because it is created by human activity, it is created with a passion or dream, so these products should be treated with respect even though it is thrown out and reused again as clean as a whistle for the next use.

    But anything you use has a shelf life meaning it probably has a soul within the date for consumption.

    A Soul

  • Finding opportunities…

    In society we think we cannot find work or something to do but one valuable skill is to be an all rounder.

    This includes being a cleaner, kitchen hand or working in the office. There are endless opportunities if you are willing to learn. Personality cannot be trained but skills can be trained.

    If you have a lot of experiences into industries, you will find endless opportunities if you put yourself out there. Maybe after you leave school it is harder, but once you get the skills up and running, it will be easier to find opportunities out into the community.

    I find it is best not to leave your eggs in one basket. We humans are always made to improve and are looking for something to do. If we do nothing during the day our minds think of nonsense which in turn affects our mental health.

    My project is trying to bring people struggling with mental health over into working service based jobs as there is a big stigma attached to them while also helping with their investments based on their risk. It doesn’t matter if the money is not a lot per hour but you will be getting valuable skills into the future.

    That is why when you are young it is best to invest in yourself, while making mistakes in the process when important personal responsibilities are limited.

    Careful how you plan out your responsibilities

  • Fear is our enemy

    We should not fear what comes out of peoples mouths/words if it does not affect your life.

    I guess if we fear our mental health will be hi jacked and it will end in an endless cycle of depression or anxiety. We should fear that we are not taking action to make the world a better place. The actions we take should be finding a job or some money method so we contribute to our surroundings making the other person feel like they are looked after.

    If we fear what the higher ups are saying, we tend to inaction our minds, which tends to make us overthink and who knows… Destruction??

    We do need to be cautious at times, because everyone needs to look after ourselves, but we should try to encourage everyone around us to be happy and to be in their normal thinking state.

    But probably everyone has their own perspectives on things.

    Feel the love

  • Doing something worthy of your time

    In the past I have been focusing on making money by trying to give my time. But I noticed, I was not happy with what I was doing because it felt repetitive. It had no purpose and meaning in what I was doing. It was going in the same place day in and day out.

    What I like to do is go to different places while making some money, it is not a lot like previously but it feels like what I am doing has some meaning.

    I also felt like my mental health was declining so I kind of had to do what I wanted to do.

    I guess, try to figure out a way to make money work for me. I think I am going on the right path at the moment but everything in life is a gamble anyways. Working between odd jobs where I get the freedom to be my own boss is meaningful to me.

    What I am trying to do is get my brand out there, just fulfilling my childhood dreams because you never lose it until you lose it even if you struggle at first, but the path will be worth it.

  • Accidents? Or Saving us?

    Have you ever broken a bone?

    I have fractured my one wrist before from riding a scooter downhill.

    It was not a good experience after that because I was unable to do something I wanted in the next few months.

    What if maybe… When we fracture or break our bones is the universe of saying, we are going too far with our stunts before it gets worse.

    Or… It could be our bones are fragile.

    Anyways… It could be our unconscious selves saving us before we get hit or even worse lose a life. This does relate back to mental health as maybe our bodies react this way unconsciously. 

    It is a complex subject.

    Still a bigger lump

  • Different environment, different emotions

    When I go to different places, it is a vibe I get. Sometimes it is more relaxing and sometimes it is not. Maybe when we are in congested areas we feel it is more stressful, while the opposite is more relaxed and chill.

    If we hang around a more stressful area, we tend to get more stressed or we somehow get this migraine in our head. While we see greens when we go to the environment our mind stays peaceful.

    I think our human mind finds nature like trees or grass peaceful and relaxing for us. If we are in the city where there is a lack of trees our minds tend to race.

    Even with how the environment is portrayed our emotions react to the environment around us.

    I think we humans are naturally adaptive whether it goes positively or negatively.

    The world that we live in that is natural is always best
