@Javfly33 Well, Opiates are pain killers. They aren't helping your developing just numbing the pain.

Random unless you make plans ? -
@Something Funny if you want to use paper then the Bullet Journal Method can be modified to be a commonplace book, though that’s limited.

The remarkable tablet ? My system is simple.. 1. remarkable tablet because I prefer to write by hand and be in distraction free, Deep work zone. Remarkable syncs to cloud and can be accessed by phone or laptop. I think the remarkable tablet makes a great commonplace book, or part of a commonplace book system. 2. One note.

I am saying that in the trans community there is a lot of mental illness. Not that being trans is a mental illness. Though, I do wonder to what extent it may be. I mean, you want to physically alter your body because you think you were being into the wrong body. That is illness to me. Though my mind is open as I continue to see different perspectives. This does not mean being trans is bad. I know that lots of people I’m sure are grateful they became trans. My honest opinion on transitioning is that it is largely cosmetic and I think has a lot of risks. For me this isn’t a right vs left issue. Not all groups of people, or identities are on an equal playing field. Each group has their own unique set of pros, cons, strengths and weaknesses. There is an idea that is popular right now if you question this trans phenomenon that you are trans Phil, right wing, etc… etc well maybe. Or maybe, I am just observing. I think it is natural for a man, or a women to be anywhere on the masculine or phenomenon spectrum. I have many friends who do drag, are gay, etc. I am sure for some people being trans is great. I know people who have transitioned and seem to be doing well. However, there is also a lot of foolishness going on. -

@Holykael Basic rule tripping is don’t make decisions. Don’t beat yourself up, but take responsibility and grow from the mistakes -

@Sultan Al Hind Solipsism says nothing about needing to survive and work a job. You need to work if you want to survive. It shouldn’t be treated as some idealogy that makes you a retard. You need to survive, be practical and develop healthy relationships with others.

It’s worth looking at all the pros and cons. I share this just because before you change your physical body you really want to do deep work, consider options etc. The physical transition is not you becoming the other gender. It is physically impossible to do this. There is a potential host of problems that can come from this. Such as losing your ability to feel sexual pleasure. So, please do as much research as possible. It’s also worth being cautious in the fantasy that women will treat you like a woman, or that men will. Maybe! But, also maybe they will see you as a man, or as trans which is a third thing, which I still know little about in the social realm. Of course there are different kinds of social circles out there so who knows. However, you have to make your own decisions. This is not, in reality a one sided problem. It is not that, those who share words of caution are bigots and transphobes. The reality is much more complicated. People who are blindly pro all things trans are pseudo progressive. They imagine that a complete blind acceptance of all things trans is good. There is good in accepting others and for everyone feeling safe and understood in society. But, what they don’t see is that when we begin to understand trans issues there’s a lot of mental health considerations, the rights of biological women and young girls, and dangers of transitioning that go into play here and in reality the situation is very complicated. A true progressive is going to move beyond group think and fear of social pressures to think for themselves and make high quality distinctions. When it comes to you being happy… this is a complicated thing. I beckon everyone to be willing to look at this from more perspectives. In the end, do what makes my happy and love yourself. It doesn’t really matter what other people think.

@PenguinPablo Hmm, I don't know. I know that I want to develop my interpersonal and leadership skills. That is important for my business. I think it's worth addressing. I may be being paranoid about how others perceive me but who knows.
-
@DrugsBunny Working remote is a good idea. But, will that result in real growth? Or just avoiding the problem? @LSD-Rumi Thank you for your kind words. It's probably a degree of awkwardness.
-
I don't know for certain. But, I suspect the end is near for me at this particular place. Grateful overall for experience.
-
Hmm, Yeah feeling fear and uncertainty right now. I need to grow, and develop myself to be able to make money from my online business. There are no problems. Only opportunities.

I believe I can do the job with excellence. However, it may take time. This will be my best week by far, and I will continue to work very hard even though I suspect this is coming. I have to admit I really don't know.

@Illusory Self Yeah, I am doubting my work ability as well. I think they may need someone with more experience in this role. I am learning a lot and growing every week. But, I think my experience is limited, and they may want someone with more experience. I have heard from others that people speak about me behind my back. I feel the energy in the room. It's, obvious people think I am strange. I think my skills matched what they were looking for when they initially hired me. But, because of the structural changes the expertise required for that position is higher than what I can currently offer. Plus, it's really a toxic work environment for me now. I am doing well because I practice and train to have my effortless workweek. I am. I really find it hard to connect with people. I think I am an over sharer. This will be a trap for me as long as I have to work for others. Also, it's an important part of my social skills to develop. I really should socialize more. But, I also have so much work I need to do. Either way, I think staying where I am with this job I will continue to grow. I am going to work my ass off anyway because I care about developing my skills. I feel confident this may come. I want to be prepared for it. There is currently a high turn over rate. I suspect this could happen, that I will be let go. I just , I am getting the sense from management and the culture.
