  1. I'll get this as well... I'll get patterns of stuff. They come more if I pay attention to them. Good idea for artwork. Sometimes I don't really like the patterns though. They can be scary faces, other times flowers. They seem to be more of one than the other depending if I focus on it and the feeling that arises in me. They have gotten super vivid and it's almost like a light show of patters, figures, faces, etc. I get them too when waking up. They go away a few minutes after I have awoken. They aren't very vivid for me these days but they have been before.
  2. I've gotten into the habit of going to bed at 6am... Waking up at 3pm Anyone gotten into this since quarantine. How were you able to get back to a more normal sleep schedule ? I'd like to be asleep by 3 and waking up at around 1130
  3. I haven't seen the movie but apparently it's a realistic/disturbing depiction of the horrors of WWII over the sort of heroic fantasy many American movies show. Pure red devilry and ideology
  4. the enemy of my enemy is my friend I suppose
  5. Currently I have two things I do for my enjoyment. I go to the gym three times a week and I make artwork in photoshop. I'm looking into planning a small business out and doing a bit of reading on this. What are some stuff you have been doing if you haven't returned to your normal schedule?
  6. Been feeling hella lethargic this week. Have a very mild sore throat. Hope I'm not ill. Missed the gym today because of it and haven't done my full work out the last two sessions. Feeling slightly sad and depressed as well from feeling this lazy. I have the tools to work through this and am overall in a good and stable place. I've been feeling good about myself a lot recently as well. I hope I can regain some energy by the end of this week. I would like to start making some serious plans for the fall but I just don't know enough about what the world will look like then to really commit to anything. I also have some paper work held up currently by the world events. Occasionally I feel sort of sad and nauseous but I experience it and let it go as much as I can. I'm kinda feeling decent overall though for a while now so I'm taking a positive outlook and I'm feeling gratitude for my current situation and self love for myself Hope I'll be feeling better by Friday so I can really go hard in the gym!
  7. I don't see China ever holding more influence than the current western coalition of the US, EU, Canada, etc nor soft power besides being able to get a tech company or a Hollywood movie studio to keep some sort of independent Hong Kong message censored. No one besides their nationals speaks their language. Also they don't really design much of anything used by the world. They just make stuff. A lot of stuff they have designed only their nationals use or developing countries in Africa. If anything I see them becoming more isolated.
  8. haha interesting take. I guess it started to dawn on him that regardless of his family not owning a slave that the flag he carries is a symbol of a slave state and he's just bullshitting himself trying to reason out of it.
  9. he's good motivation for people who sit around and play video games all day and for "nice guys" who get used by girls for money but I've long outgrown him
  10. which politicians are you specifically talking about besides trump?
  11. Hey man I think if you want to spread the good word there is no harm in training now. You don't have to put so much pressure on yourself to answer everyone's life questions but I'm sure you have enough wisdom to help some people. You're 20 so I'm sure you can mentor high schoolers and such. Keep reading up about it and the more knowledge and wisdom you gain the more you will be able to share it. I don't think a good coach will ever consider themselves "finished." It's always a work in progress where you can help those you can now and you keep growing and that expands your ability to help others.
  12. it just sort of happened after my awakening. I started to practice it when I realized I had split myself apart. I just got tired of feeling bad and fighting with myself and chose to love myself instead. it was like realizing how I was seeing myself and the need of acceptance from others was silly and there was a better way of framing things. I was able to let a lot of that go so getting rejected now doesn't hurt so much and I have much less fear in this domain making myself open and vulnerable. Oddly I don't really feel "proud" either when I do succeed with the opposite sex. It's coming from a more genuine place. I still want a relationship. I'm not sure I need it but I still want it and do occasionally wonder if I'll find a long term partner to settle down with. I still have a little bit of fear around this but I see it as a spiral where we circle back around wiser each time. It's definitely possible for you to go higher and not be so bothered by this stuff as much and be living from a more genuine place where this domain is being fulfilled in authentic ways.
  13. I went through this in the past. You have inner work to do accepting yourself. Focus on giving yourself self love. You don't love yourself enough and are basing your self acceptance on outside sources.
  14. woke up at basically 3:30pm today I don't have a problem falling asleep... I just love staying up late... but I have to choose if I want my fun nights staying up late or if I prefer the more supportive routine of committing to going to bed earlier. I think I will work it back slowly.
  15. Traveling to new cities helps a ton. Go to a city you fit in and with lots of people, get some roommates and start being social wherever you go. Living in my small home town can make me feel a bit depressed cause it's much harder to meet new people there. You gotta be around people and have your life set up to make new friends.
  16. I think people like to claim how "broken" tinder is (don't get me wrong it sucks) but wants to rely on an app to find a partner. I think meeting girls is much easier in person than online.
  17. Yin and yang... this is where women have an "advantage" so to speak. I like to look at it more as a role to play. Uneven but balanced.
  18. I actually just found out that this statue was erected using the money of freed slaves. It has a much more positive history than others but I think with the current climate it probably belongs in a museum.
