  • Grey spot regarding mental health

    I am not saying I don’t believe in mental health. Of course some may be used as an excuse to take advantage of something but mental health should be about keeping your peace without having other emotional factors or environmental factors affecting it.

    Of course there are some factors that may affect your dizziness or fatigue, even I get them sometimes. It may be your body is telling you not to push yourself and stay in your own lane like your own lane as the environmental factors. Of course no one is perfect, we all make mistakes, some bigger than the other according to law.

    But sometimes things are just a choice to make whether it is risky or not. So best to pick your battles.

    Directions and obstacles while navigating the environment

  • Anxiety and money

    We all need money to live in this modern world. In fact it has been around for centuries.

    But I think what causes anxiety mostly is about paying the bills. What happens when we do not pay our bills and it ends up piling. If we do not pay our bills and we have responsibilities such as children in the house or we have someone living in the household that depends on us to get things done. We would feel the urge of anxiety internally because we do not know when our next paycheck will come. Then there is the fear of the unknown because there is more than one mouth to feed too.

    Sometimes the decisions we make do affect us, whether it is getting into debt or overspending so we do not have a cushion to give us time to reciprocate.

  • 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.

  • Taking a chance to improve

    Of course when we have done our service such as working a job for someone. We would want something that we are passionate about because it makes our life brighter and more fun. We all have a fear of taking the unknown because we do not know if we can pay the bills or if we overthink that something will go wrong.

    If we keep focusing on one thing, consistently we usually eventually meet to the end goal. Of course meeting the end goal never ends but we should improve how we can make it more efficient and pay more rewards.

    Decisions are like rolling the dice, never know you win big or not

  • Developing your skills part 2

    With the internet there are a lot of tools to make money. Now that we have online and offline, it is easier to make more money than in the past, or maybe there are more options to make money both indoors at your own home or outdoors. I guess it is similar to working from home with a salary job but when you are your own boss, there are more options.

    Just like white or blue collared, stocks and cryptocurrency there are many ways to generate income.

    I have mentioned this but money is the biggest source of mental health problems in our modern society but it is not the most important. The best way to start looking is to start as early as possible, not even waiting for the right opportunity because there is no right opportunity.

    Working on one tool at a time

  • 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.

  • Cleanliness and anxiety

    I am writing this because I have something on my mind with experience.

    Whenever I touch some body’s hand it sometimes feels sticky, and I just wonder what causes it. Some people told me and the internet studies would say it is anxiety but I guess it is understandable. A few years ago when I had anxiety and not doing well, I always felt sweaty even on a cold day, so I am trying to figure out the logistics. Also it could be when you have a high fever and are trying to wear as much clothes as you can but I see sweaty palms with short sleeves t-shirt and shorts.

    Sometimes it makes me feel dirty when I touch it but maybe it is how the person takes care of themselves with their diet which is the main factor in my opinion.

    But anyways, you cannot prevent it but more like a trial and error to maybe stop the sweaty palms which is all in the mind or overthinking.

  • Backwards technology

    What technology would you be better off without, why?

    I guess we all should improve and make lives easier. With different types of technology rolling out fast, sometimes our minds cannot keep up especially if we have been doing one thing for a long time. 

    There are alot of different gears and personality that will make different types of technologies but one thing that can’t keep up sometimes is our mental health. We all should strive to keep our mental health as stable as possible but you know… Not everything can be stable.

    I do think technology makes our life too comfortable but we should try to find sources that make us uncomfortable, starting with cold showers at home.

    Having cold showers does not affect anyone but yourself because it saves electricity and also it makes your skin better. Also it makes you more disciplined as well.

  • 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.

  • Mountains for fresh air

    Beach or mountains? Which do you prefer? Why?

    I would prefer being in the mountains or being near a mountain with open space.

    What I like about it is there is more space per square than people if it were in the mountain. In the beach it would be the opposite. In the open space it beats being claustrophobic because of the open space.

    The outdoor mountain breeze also helps with mental health as well as it is a calming nature sound.
