Depends on the woman. Some will care some won't Really depends on their own maturity The example you're bringing up, sounds crazy. No empathy when you're physically sick is actually kinda crazy. I'm pretty sure even the average woman empathizes with that I def would try to communicate with her about it. Some people when communicated to about their behavior will change through awareness, even if initially toxic. But the communication needs to be skillfull

@Bobby_2021 that's a great point, conservatives tend to have a lot of exposure to society in general. Esp since rural areas, suburbs and the Bible belt tend to just generally be exposed to different types of people and are def not secluded (Sarcasm) one of the big reasons conservatives are conservatives are due to a lack of exposure to anyone else

@Leo Gura ?

Something I loved that squeex said "You're very intentional with youre time and its madebyou such a well rounded person Lud. That's what I admire about you."

Gpt4 gimme some exercises on increasing self love Absolutely! Cultivating self-love is an essential part of well-being. Here are some short morning exercises you can incorporate to help increase self-love: 1. **Mirror Talk**: Look into the mirror and compliment yourself on one thing, whether it's physical, emotional, or related to your skills or achievements. 2. **Affirmations**: Write down or recite positive affirmations. Examples include "I am enough," "I am worthy of love and joy," or "I am resilient and strong." 3. **Body Love**: Spend a minute or two gently massaging your hands, arms, or face while thinking or saying, "I love and appreciate my body." 4. **Mindful Breathing**: Close your eyes and take 10 deep breaths. As you breathe in, imagine absorbing love and positivity, and as you breathe out, visualize releasing negative self-talk and doubts. 5. **Visualization**: Imagine a bright light in your heart expanding with each breath, filling your entire body with warmth, love, and acceptance. 6. **Self-Hug**: Spend a few moments giving yourself a tight, comforting hug. 7. **Journaling**: Spend a few minutes writing down things you love about yourself. This can be about your character, things you’ve achieved, or even small things you've done recently. 8. **Celebrate Wins**: Acknowledge one small achievement or thing you did the day before, no matter how insignificant it might seem. 9. **Loving Kindness Meditation**: Think of yourself and repeat: "May I be happy. May I be healthy. May I be safe. May I live with ease." 10. **Acts of Self-Care**: Do one small act of self-care, whether it's brewing your favorite tea, using a luxurious hand lotion, or stretching for a few minutes. 11. **Boundaries Reminder**: Remind yourself of a boundary you want to maintain that day, whether it's saying "no" to an extra task, taking regular breaks, or protecting your personal time. Remember, consistency is key. Like your gratitude practice, these exercises can have a profound impact when practiced regularly over time. Adjust and choose the ones th!t resonate the most with you. == Certainly! An effective exercise tailored for enhancing feelings of self-worth and self-esteem is the **"Positive Attributes and Achievements"** reflection. Here's a step-by-step guide: ### Positive Attributes and Achievements Reflection 1. **Preparation**: - Find a quiet place where you won't be disturbed. - Equip yourself with a journal or some paper and a pen. 2. **List Positive Attributes**: - Write down all your positive attributes. These can be qualities related to your character, appearance, skills, or even your values. - Examples: "I am a good listener", "I am skilled in painting", "I have a warm smile", or "I am resilient". - Aim to list at least 10, but the more the better. Don't rush; take your time to genuinely reflect. 3. **List Achievements**: - Now, write down all the achievements you're proud of, both big and small. Remember, even small milestones matter. - Examples: Completing a challenging project, helping a friend in need, mastering a new recipe, or even getting through a particularly tough day. 4. **Reflection**: - Read through your lists slowly, really taking the time to let each point sink in. - For each point, remember a time when that attribute or achievement was most evident. Relive the feelings and emotions tied to those moments. 5. **Daily Affirmation**: - From your list, choose one attribute and one achievement that resonates the most with you for that day. - Formulate an affirmation combining both, e.g., "I am a skilled communicator, and I successfully led that team meeting last week." - Repeat this affirmation to yourself throughout the day, especially during moments of self-doubt. 6. **Regular Updates**: - Aim to revisit and add to your list regularly. As you grow and evolve, you'll have more attributes and achievements to acknowledge. 7. **Visual Reminder**: - Consider placing your list or affirmations where you can see them daily – a bedside table, pinned on a board near your work desk, or even as a digital reminder. ### Why This Works: By actively acknowledging and focusing on your positive attributes and achievements, you're challenging and reshaping negative beliefs about yourself. Over time, consistently reminding yourself of these positive aspects can significantly boost feelings of self-worth and self-esteem.

why not both?

im just contemplating, maybe to answer the question you could test it by pretending to be a man-hater and see what she believes lol "i fucking hate men they're just sexual abusers" lol legit though ? also i think maybe just testing for people based on their vibe and energy. if they hold strong hate and negativity that could just be the wrong place

That's a really good definition actually > to be able to spot women who are receptive to my love for them. That could be a great pillar

Good mindset + hard work = ✨️

Shifting my focus from specific mastery, to general life mastery = Rudimentary thoughts on life mastery: 1. Emotional mastery 2. Happiness 3. Productivity + efficiency

Noticing a victim mindset in me (that deserves compassion) Whenever facing a tough challenge Solution is to let it be, and remember it's not the truth, just need to let it pass and respond accordingly

Adding to unexpected value: Mindfulness meditation sessions Box breathing Deep breathing exercises Loving kindness meditations

?

I would say the whole thread has a similar frequency tbh

Being nice is a collection of attributes. Quality of your intentions, empathy skills, communication skills, your EQ, integrity Politeness is one of them but it's barely a start Being nice is actually pretty rare, the qualities of it require pretty high development

Tag: productivity The intent of productivity is incredibly key because that's what you're creating Trying to be productive just to be productive is a trap because you could just be meaninglessly being productive You gotta focus on the actual goal/outcome Productivity is just an output == Tag: Productivity Goal-setting is a bit of an art and skill. there is a bit of unique processes that goes into it

I think generally therapists are for emotional issues. Like you need emotional support, or need to learn some tools, you have a specific mental health condition or need insight into something Some say that therapy is for those who are struggling and trying to get baseline And others say coaching is for people who have more personal development type issues. Like career, self actualization work, skill development, mindfulness Though I'm sure even if you don't have a tough mental health issue you're trying to work out therapy can be useful to. I know therapy could even be used for regular development for mastering your emotions. There's also therapists who also do life coaching work. Maybe that suits your style I also wanna note that sometimes finding a good fit takes time. I prefer now to do a ton of discovery calls and see which one resonates with me most beforehand What are you looking for from therapy exactly? That might be a good place to start

things that have brought tremendous value to my life without realizing - good relationships with others. happiness and value is unmatched - random courses that i took and interacted with. great courses are so goated - courses that have tons of speakers that come and provide value. i learned a lot about the new insights in an industry - finishing a book completely (with good notes). these structured my psyche still to this day - random interactive books that i completed and took action on. built a brand from an interactive book - extracting and saving insights properly from videos. don't have to waste time on re-reading things - "scammer" type business courses. some were actually legit. i got actionable practical advice - focusing on 1-2 things at a time until completion even if it's unoptimal = CODE - Capture: Keep what resonates & Matters - Organize: Save for future action - Distill: Boil Down & find the essence - Express: show and share your best work = remember to keep a *clear* intent in mind. a clear intent is very powerful = favorite podcasts currently: - ali abdaal's productivity pod - jay shetty's podcast decent: brian johnson's optimize.me's podcast seems promising: how i built this scott bary kaufman's podcast bill gates podcast diary of a ceo

I agree with that Just be careful that you don't let some people cloud your vision to like real social issues It'd be like saying you continue to fight for segregation in the 60s because a sect of the movement wanted black people to have the power over white people

Just stand up to someone when someone hates on men and ull be fine And also stand up for women's rights, lgtbq, minority rights just the same ?

@mr_engineer Check out r/menslib Mens rights but not toxic

Dude what are you reading

@UnbornTao it's incredibly impressive too. With the corruption and lack of development at that time and still those geniuses existed? Christ
