  1. Update: 

    I've decided to not quit many of these things.

    I'm still drinking and smoking.

    I still listen to music.

    I don't do much else on the internet though.

    I basically have one friend that I talk to 

    I'm keeping a watch on my thoughts to keep them productive to my purposes.

    I still think about typology and developmental psychology.

    I am learning to get over the mental health system.

    I'm moving past the past.

    I've been eating a lot of takeaway.

    I no longer want to work or study.

     

    So many of the things I had planned on quitting didn't pan out, but I assure you I have been making a lot of progress.


  2. Overcoming Se/materialism means I don't really need money. Over the past 10 years I have mostly spent money on drugs. I will be quitting all drugs so this means I will save a lot of money.

    Overcoming Si/convention means I don't/can't do things the ordinary way. I am very odd and unique.

    So I neither need a job, nor can I fit into a work culture. And my functioning is going down.

    All I can do is live with my parents and focus on my research.

    The thematic hierarchy is a BIG deal. This is the next step to modelling human development. It is a major breakthrough.

    I recommend everyone learn about it.


  3. So a lot of these habits pertain to Fi. My Fi is unhealthy because of what I have focused on with it. I am looking to reset this stage and build it anew.

    Things like food, smoking and music are problematic. I don't know what it should look like instead, but it's not that.

    My Fe is well developed, but I need to focus on reducing it. Stopping talking to people will be a big step.

    Ti is largely about stopping the google searches. I have healthy Ti with typology.

    Te is what I really need to focus on reducing. I need to stop being results oriented in ways that are too ordinary. I can still focus on success but this should be more spiritual.

    Stopping anything requiring steps like chores - cooking, cleaning - as well as technology is a big thing. I have already made a lot of progress in that regard.


  4. Figure out where you are on the spiral and really focus on that.

    You're probably at something like Fi/Ti. Focus on understanding your preferences for things like art, and work on academic subjects. Learn maths and integrate it into your life.

    The notion of "how" to do something, like moving up the spiral, is Te/Orange.

    If you want to focus on stages above you, think about the idea of the new and complex. Focus on value-based ideologies, as well as abstract ideas of success. Go about things in a way that goes beyond what you already know.

    Also, try to reduce any materialism you might have. Materialism will keep you locked in the lowest level of the spiral.


  5. The hardest things to quit will be tobacco and thinking about the mental health system.

    I think I've already quit alcohol, and I'm about to quit caffeine and happy high herbs. I'm currently  high on kanna kava.

    I've quit veganism now (I only had that diet because meat was making me sick, not because I believe eating meat is wrong) and I will quit sugar with caffeine (I've been having energy drinks lately). I should stay away from take away, which hopefully won't be too difficult.

    So now I have to be careful of my internet usage, and work on cutting out interactions.

    I've made a lot of progress with not thinking about work and study, because I am now more content with my life as it is. Cutting out regrets is an ongoing battle. Stopping thinking about the mental health system will be very difficult, because I am still stuck in the system.

    I can do it!


  6. Regarding the thematic hierarchy:

    - I will be classifying these habits into Te, Fe, Ti and Fi. I am regerring to the S versions of these functions.

    II have already overcome most things relating to Se and Si. My most Si habit is checking the time a lot. I should quit this too.

     

    Te: structured activities

    Fe: involvement e.g. with friends

    Ti: factual

    Fi: personal preferences. This is probably the main one.
