The return on investment is still divided by three. The costs of financing each personal share is a private cost and not related to the investment.

God has spoken.

You're the creator of your own happiness, it doesn't just fall into your lap on its own. Time to do some creating! Also, there's emotional flow and cognitive flow. Both are very important for top athletes. I analyse MotoGP all the time. Emotional flow comes from understanding yourself, cognitive flow comes from optimal brain stimulation. We all have different things that work for us, play with things and you'll find your "spot".

If you want happiness you have to find something that you love, appreciate it and enjoy it. Some people find it in nature, some in knowledge, some in basketball. The world is your oyster, you just need to pick what it is for you. You can meditate on the things that you pick and you should start feeling the bliss. Imagination is a very powerful tool and also a free "entertainment".

Your brain is bored. You need to occupy it with a challenge rather than adding different tasks. You can put a background music on or add something to your activity so you're in the flow. You need to make that one thing more challenging for yourself. Reading is good because you can set your own pace, when you start getting bored just read faster or make notes etc

@JonasVE12 You can't do everything. Also, the more different things you do, the lower the quality of your work. Find what is most important to you and focus on that, this way you gain more expertise and focus.

If this works for you then that's great! I aim for more than contentment and I also believe in a "natural" approach to happiness, no pushing of anything

Yep, we are usually devils for a reason but once the reasons are gone, we can let go of the devil! (at least partly haha)

Excuse my ignorance, I didn't read the whole thread, I got a bit lost in it. But isn't this whole forum about a debate/conversation? Leo doesn't get involved in all of it but he does get involved.

@Nahm I'm glad you've found a way to make yourself happy. When I started posting back in July, I was told off very quickly that having desires is wrong. Of course, I didn't let anyone stop me from doing what I believe in. So yes it's great to see that happiness is spreading!

@Flowerfaeiry We are all created equal so the experience of death is equal for all of us. Of course, the way leading to death is quite different for all of us.

@kindayellow Either accept it or change it. There's not much to analyse any more, once you start going in circles, your analysis is done unless you find some new information. You don't have to push yourself to accept it as sometimes it's easier to change things than trying to push acceptance that you struggle to do.

And then you realize that it's completely ok to be whatever you were before.

I suppose it can be very "disturbing" to find out that Santa doesn't exist! haha

Yes, we don't have to lose it, it's not compulsory to fully grow up, let's keep some fun! I actually believe that you can't achieve sustainable happiness without knowing some truth, they go hand in hand. You don't need to know the ultimate Truth to be happy, just enough so you understand what is going on so your happiness is safe.

That’s a good start. Notice what thoughts make you happy and what makes you lose it. Also, don’t forget about actions. I’d have to know you well to know exactly what is going on.

Every step counts, from the very bottom to the very top Lyrics There's a lady who's sure All that glitters is gold And she's buying a stairway to heaven When she gets there she knows If the stores are all closed With a word she can get what she came for Oh oh oh oh and she's buying a stairway to heaven There's a sign on the wall But she wants to be sure 'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings In a tree by the brook There's a songbird who sings Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiving Ooh, it makes me wonder Ooh, it makes me wonder There's a feeling I get When I look to the west And my spirit is crying for leaving In my thoughts I have seen Rings of smoke through the trees And the voices of those who standing looking Ooh, it makes me wonder Ooh, it really makes me wonder And it's whispered that soon, If we all call the tune Then the piper will lead us to reason And a new day will dawn For those who stand long And the forests will echo with laughter If there's a bustle in your hedgerow Don't be alarmed now It's just a spring clean for the May queen Yes, there are two paths you can go by But in the long run There's still time to change the road you're on And it makes me wonder Your head is humming and it won't go In case you don't know The piper's calling you to join him Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow And did you know Your stairway lies on the whispering wind And as we wind on down the road Our shadows taller than our soul There walks a lady we all know Who shines white light and wants to show How everything still turns to gold And if you listen very hard The tune will come to you at last When all are one and one is all To be a rock and not to roll And she's buying the stairway to heaven

Do whatever you enjoy. If you can eat your cake without any guilt and it makes you feel good, that’s what you should do. Also don’t forget to allow yourself to feel good about yourself because you’re figuring it out and all you need to do is to keep progressing and you will get what you want.

Celebrate every progress that you make towards what you want. That should make you feel amazing right now because every progress means that you're getting closer and it's also a proof that you're doing the right thing. Keep it up!

@Bazooka Jesus Everything is designed to self-correct itself eventually but if you’re impatient, you can use your powers correctly to give yourself some feedback and act to help things out a little bit.

I’m playing with an idea of putting the app on Kickstarter. It will offer exclusive prerelease versions of the app. It won’t cost anything to small supporters if I put high prize on it and hopefully, someone with spare cash will offer something and support the development of the app. That would be great!

This is my personal understanding of God: God is everything. Everything that we can see, hear, smell, taste, touch, imagine and much more. God is all inclusive, God is absolutely everything and is everywhere and has many forms. Because God is everything, we are a part of God and therefore we have some of God’s powers. But only small powers because we’re only a small part of God. There are many much more powerful parts of God than we are. God rewards us or punishes us based on our actions. When we do good, we get rewarded, when we do bad, we get punished. The confusing bit is that sometimes we get hurt by people that use their power to do bad but if we still do good we get compensated while the person that does bad still gets punished. Sometimes, we do some bad and some good things, so we get some reward and some punishment. The more we understand God and do good, the more we get rewarded, the more we create a bit of “heaven” on Earth for us and others.
