You have mental illness. Seek professional help.

It seems you can’t hear anything at this point but if your ears open up, @Lyubov is the voice of common sense here & he’s got sensible advice. You don’t need money, you need to stop projecting your own selfishness on the world & get off your ass. Stop believing the crap your mind serves to you. You are not smarter than everyone. Now your mind will proceed to spit more trash to justify how everything you just read is wrong & false & balabalabla. Observe it. That’s the crap I am speaking of. You are doing it. Stop.

This one doesn’t look bad. But it’s pretty much useless considering that eating right is very obvious & people just choose not to do it. This chart isn’t doing much to solve the real emotional issues people have that make them forget the difference between food & trash.

Wait until you find out everyone is an idiot including yourself. Good luck staying away from that😅

Standing meditation is very effective use of my time. It ticks a lot of boxes for me. I can not find an end to the grace achievable through this simple act of standing up. See how long you can do it. How do your feet feel? How does the entire structure take information from the ground? Are your glutes supporting you? What is the relationship between your mid foot & your knees? Does the weight distribution make sense? How about the relationship between knees & hips? All the way up. What is a wasted tension? Drop it. Keep finding your centre of mass & place it at the centre of your structure. Make the spine float like a blade of grass.

But I also think needy people will get better results than you the way you seem to define “results”. They’ll just find other needy people to be miserable with. Why do anything? Why not? What’s the alternative? Living under a rock(not that there’s anything wrong with that)? You can have non-needy desires & self-constructed meanings. Neediness is your attachment, not what you do or say.

Yes it works. You can totally engage with flirting without needing any of it & it works. But you realize that you might not get it & it’s still fine right? I mean it. Could go either way. If you reject people that come to you “cause you’re so not needy” you are actually needy for this perception of yourself as being this “non-needy” person. You can participate in life in non-needy way without living under a rock like @Salvijus is suggesting. There’s no difference between sex & living under a rock for the true non-needy. Going to a bar to do pickup is needy behaviour. But you will meet people that vibe with you in other non-needy contexts by just engaging with life & being open.

This is false. I’ve been going barefoot on pavement for years & my feet & legs are healthier than they’ve ever been. I run a lot on pavement too. You just need to be smart about progressive transition if you are starting from a weak place. edit: It’s not just the feet & legs. It percolates all the way up the kinetic chain. People have no idea how bad most shoes are. I think bottom line is you need no cushion, enough space to spread the toes(clenching those flip flops is horrible), and no heel. Notice that removes 99+% of shoes.

It’s crazy that they market these atrocities for running & people buy it. It goes against every principle of bio mechanics that are true & work. You literally make yourself more incompetent & crippled every time you put these on.

And you think getting rid of your desire without even knowing what you are renouncing is going to solve anything?

Just get a girlfriend what’s the problem?

Dang, must be hell inside your head.

@Salvijus Look at history

Across lifetimes maybe. Within this one, I think it’s less accurate to say this. Most people will die lost in a prison of their own making without any understanding that they are doing it & trying to help doesn’t matter cause they already think they know every thing & the whole world is going to shit, bla-bla-bla(or some other bullshit story). My entire family is like that. I appreciate your perspective. It is more compassionate. Which has it’s own kind of value. Paradoxically, it’s probably easier to help (some) people with your frame of mind even though it’s less accurate.

You are starting to realize that the hamster wheel won’t ever satisfy. It’s a necessary process to go through. Stop doing stuff & embrace the boredom for a few days. You can’t ever make yourself whole by doing. Passion happens when you are already whole & do stuff for the heck of it. Not because it matters. Cause it doesn’t.
