  • Recycling…

    When we have second hand goods we want to buy, if they are still usable, we can brush it up like paint it or sand it then it will be near new. Also it looks new! It is easier to say than done because I do not do that yet but maybe in due time I may try this.

    I collect cables used for copper and just resell them to scrap yards but right now I am just keeping them so in due time they will go up in value. I may even store them in a storage unit for fun while supporting the business as well. I also collect bottles and cans, so after I drink them, I put them in a bag to take them to a recycling facility when I have a lot.

    There are a lot of ways to recycle over in Sydney, some are cheaper than others or some you could make money out of but when we recycle we tend to make the environment more friendly as in not using a lot of resources that are not used on earth.

    When we recycle we also make another life for these items for us to consume.

    Recycling can also give us good mental well being as it makes us think we are contributing to the eco-friendliness of our society and also to give us a purpose to lean on.

  • Serving

    What are your daily habits?

    I try to keep my daily habits of serving each day, it is what keeps me up everyday.

    What I mean is that serving is doing a job and getting paid after the job is finished. This could also translate to an hourly job.

    I think keeping yourself clean everyday is also important but when there are other duties to be done then maybe you could skip a shower time if you feel clean at the moment. P.s (I don’t shower everyday, I am lazy).

    If by serving or cleaning yourself your mental health can be positively or negatively affected depending on the person you served. But let’s try to make everybody have good mental health, for productivity.

  • Mindfulness

    Are there things you try to practice daily to live a more sustainable lifestyle?

    Everyday I practice mindfulness. So my definition of it is, how I can make the world a better place, mostly to support the fellow men in our society. This can come in a range of goods or monetary value. As long as they are still going on by the day, it makes me happy.

    I guess in our community we have had dirty public streets, somehow the atmosphere feels more clean. Maybe it is winter or maybe I should wait until summer time to see it. Whenever our streets are dirty our mental health is affected because the way I see it, anything that is wrapping paper with a word or name, emotional value is placed on it.

    So when there is a lot of rubbish on the streets our emotional value can be affected as what you may have in purpose may not be consistent with what you believe.

    Being sustainable is being selective with what your purpose is in life is how I see it.

  • 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.

  • Providing services

    How do you waste the most time every day?

    When I go outside I tend to do jobs like deliveries or selling products on Facebook marketplace, it is basically trying to build an all in one business. I do dream about everyone working together to achieve a common goal, that is to improve our well-being as we age. I cannot create but all I can do is support a product or service I am getting in order to make the world a better place.

    We cannot prevent a competition but our mental well being should be geared towards a healthier side.

    But most of the time, I just have fun while doing odd jobs as it gives me something to do while keeping the brain active to prevent deeper into forgetness. I also know we also should look after ourselves so there is always going to be conflict in our society or community… I guess it is how we advance as a nation.

  • 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
