  • Having belief in yourself

    This goes for all areas of life. This can be business, or relationships. Well for business should be number one priority either way because when you focus on business, you can control how the business is shaped.

    When you are first starting your business, having belief in the vision helps as it gives you a foundation on how it is going to make an impact in society. Even when it does not go well, having belief in the craft can motivate you to reach higher heights.

    Doing business makes my mental health a bit happier because it is similar to playing a video game because it is similar to building and maintaining a structure. Of course there should be some social aspects to keep a balance because you cannot focus on one thing at a time and give your brain a rest so you can tackle the next day.

    How I think about the next day is similar to being at a war as it is like living another day of building and doing something.

  • 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

  • Developing relationships

    Of course everyone does not want to feel lonely. There can be a fine line between making money and not making money when developing relationships. There are friendships, coworkers and/or acquaintances.

    When a relationship is developed which can be anything, a connection can arise which can make you more coordinated with each other and make more riches for everyone involved in the situation. I am not sure if it is spiritually but when everyone is working together to fulfil a problem on hand, then the situation will make those involved more riches.

    Developing relationships does not have to be a business transaction but mostly based on the feeling of connection to another person on an emotional level. It could be the individuals are on the same page emotionally and spiritually but not the same personality. It is hard to describe but I am basing this on patterns I see with my own two eyes.

    Connecting each other with different personalities, almost like coordinated effort to solve a problem on hand

  • 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.

  • Anti-psychotics and mental health

    I mean some of them may be beneficial to you but I would say all of these are just bait or trying to scam you out of your money. Anti psychotics like illegal drugs are pretty similar but legal and illegal it means the government can have a piece of the pie as well which makes it legal.

    Sometimes I do feel angry because of what kind of fees are involved to taper off but, maybe it is something I did in the past or I said something that put me in a bad spot. Of course I do need support, and am glad to have some but I guess there are some things you should stay out of so you do not dig yourself a grave that you cannot get out of.

    With mental health, it all depends on yourself instead of asking for help. Of course if you do go for help, they’ll help you but it comes with a cost so it is best to try some self therapy most of the time, as I said “So you do not dig yourself a grave you cannot get out of”.

  • 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

    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.
