  • Illusion of money

    I guess it starts by buying food or a home to stay at. Rent or buy, but similar. But when someone purchases something, it feels like there is an invisible force that they own the product.

    Start by doing deliveries for a while and you will get the logistics a bit. When you do deliveries it is a bit like the other end purchases the item and the supplier makes the item but the delivery man acts as a middleman.

    When you are on the road, and picking up the product, you can feel an illusion of the buyer owning the item. That is why on delivery applications or boxes say handle with care.

    This sounds like a spiritual thing but it is an illusion force.

  • Collaboration

    Old school or new school, we still have the same concept whether it is making money or just socialising. Collaborating is about giving something out which we may get in return, of course this can come in a form of money or advice or even socialising.

    We have unlimited resources to socialising rather than money but if we treat money as a form of socialising then we would get the cash flow. When we have money coming in, it makes us happy in the moment just like talking or socialising with people.

    This would simulate our mental health a bit as it provides a good source of dopamine and some cash so you could eat, drink and housing.

  • Community building

    It can come from all walks of life like as co-workers or just strangers. I guess if it is more like doing activities together, building each other up with knowledge and ideas on how to take your own problems. Your problems could include asking someone what to gift to their family or friends. It also can be talking about a specific culture and gaining knowledge from it as the parties involved all win with knowledge.

    When we share knowledge we share tools with each other to navigate this tricky world.

  • Feeling left behind socially and mental health

    I guess we are all walking into a rat race one way or another. The mindset is similar to keeping up with the Jones but this mindset is dangerous because you could end up in debt and who knows… Downhill from there. Of course we all like nice stuff but we should get them if necessary or give us an investment in return. The return could be social happiness or financial happiness or just usefulness.

    But even when we are running the rat race we should put a little focus on thinking independently so we can have a less stressful life and not ad anxious to keep up with your neighbour or friends. But it does get exhausting if you are constantly just buying things for the sake of impressing someone. But if you want to impress someone show off your prized art or collection that you bought as a personal prize.

    If you buy things just for personal use or investment then anxiousness to keep up socially will not be as much. We as humans are all competitive one way or another but I guess there are healthier ways around it, finding something that suits your personality.

    Think like a tortoise because you do not get exhausted and they live a long life

  • Participation

    I guess when you are part of something it would make you fulfilled. With anything… We all move on to the next big thing whether it is making money or trying to disrupt the market.

    Even when you are not making money, with participation you get learning experience or just experience in general to talk about it when something comes up for you to talk about.

    At school, we see awards for participation in something but maybe it is not meaningless but a learning experience for both the giver and receiver. The giver as in someone giving the award to the student or participant. The giver gets something out of it like data of the participant and the receiver gets a learning experience or fun experience out of it is how I see it.

  • Developing your skills

    I mean it is crucial to learn new skills and look into new tools at the age we live in. If we stay stagnant from doing one job without thinking or taking risks, we risk being left behind in society or the community with lesser opportunities.

    Of course with skills, it comes with money as well which we need to live, eat and have a nice sleep. Well… I am not saying I am independent but I still live with parents but I do a lot of observing and shadow work on the side. I do not see a need to move out because there is always room at home.

    Of course having your own place is good but I do not need much in order to live a thriving life.

  • Social opinions

    I mean there is manipulation, gaslighting and all sorts of social bad actions or awareness. One thing for sure, we do not know if they are doing any of the above sometimes.

    When we do experience these things, we usually just state our opinions to probably make drama or either it is actually true.

    All words are just words but combined with the tone of the word, we cannot make any conclusions unless we see it straight in their shoes. Who knows?? Maybe their intentions may be good or may be bad but we should know that everyone is looking after themselves and their team.

  • Oxygen and mental health

    Greens for everyone, oxygen

    I guess when we cannot breathe our mental health is affected. By mental health I mean feeling a bit depressed and also not to be able to think as clearly.

    Somehow when I go by the sea, I feel the breeze flowing through my nose, the ocean breeze. It is like a natural habitat breeze. I feel like it is important to go outside to get a breath of fresh air at times instead of breathing the air at a house or indoors. I mean some indoor places are good, only if it is big with a lot of space.

    Of course the sunlight that comes with the fresh air outdoors will definitely make your mental health better by minimising depression.

    If at home it is probably a good idea to put some plants as plants breathe out oxygen making the house more oxidised while we as humans breathe out cardon dioxide, if we want to stay indoors for a period of time.

  • Winter months

    What’s your favorite month of the year? Why?

    Winter months do not look like this in Sydney central

    I prefer winter months because you can walk around in clothes that do not make you sweat. In winter having showers is a killer but when you dry yourself up it becomes comfortable.

    In the cold you can cuddle yourself up in warm blankets making yourself comfortable instead of the hot summer sweat which makes your room stuffy.

    In a way coldness builds resilience because your body builds more tolerance to stress meaning cold. This may be good for mental health because the more stress you put in your body, the better you handle life’s stresses that come your way.

  • Thinking about how to make things better

    Working keeps the depression away

    Usually it is good to think because it helps prevent dementia. But when we think we should use it to take action which will be unknown because there is no roadmap.

    I guess we all have fears of the unknown but you never know if it pays off or not.

    We all strive to be our own boss because it is similar to an illusion of freedom. In a way when we are our own boss, you work for customers instead of an internal boss, so it will be external.
