@Miguel1 Alignment is not something that one gets through one time reflection but rather using reflection as a starting point and then acting in alignment with your priorities over and over again.
What I have noticed is that more I align myself with my values more I have the feeling of fullness. It must be practiced day to day . You can use Ai to create an alignment tracker too.

@Davino I don't know what your perspective means could you clarify it further as it sounds harsh to me.

@Joseph Maynor Post it here kindly.😂

@Joseph Maynor Man why does it look so serene ? 😂I mean the pics you posted .

I give credit to this post since due to it I joined it's WhatsApp group based on Mumbai despite being from a far away city in India .

@Leo Gura Thanks but I have realized since doing it from 2 years that acceptance is like a muscle which can be trained just like observation. By the way do you create word documents or PDFs from Ai ? For example this was which I created and there are others too .Can you all provide a feedback on it ?

@Joshe Reframing of pain is what I have been doing lately combined with acceptance .

@TruthFreedom Try, fail then learn. Rinse and repeat.

@Leo Gura These quotes are gold. However I have few questions. Is critical thinking by challenging one's own assumptions a wiser path and is it part of skepticism?
Yesterday I was feeling sadness but when I stopped resisting it but rather accepted ,embraced it I smiled. So which is better acceptance or observation of your negative emotions and reminding yourself that it's hallucination ? I mean since both approaches are path to embracing pain but which is the better catalyst for transformation?

Do you mean cold approach or social circle approach ?

Leo does this.
And so are others in this thread. Interesting.
But that assumes that Leo is guiding us by challenging us healthily. I came across his behaviour on the forum as hurtful ,egotistical .I was surprised to know years ago that he was not the same person on YouTube who taught basic self -help or even philosophy for that matter. His response on this forum contradicted to the YouTuber Leo Gura. Since then I learned the hard way multiple times on the forum and real life that people are not what they portray themselves online .

I felt that too in the past for a long time as a male.
Quoting Mark Manson here which really helped me and helps me now - If you're sitting day by day miserable then you are already wrong about something major in your life.For any change to happen in your life you must be wrong about something.
Try reading Subtle Art of not giving a F---.(A great recommendation)

@Majed I get you I felt this when I was in college that I won't get a girlfriend. It's pretty miserable place once you take that beleif seriously (speaking from experience) .Either question that beleif or stop buying into it since it can lead you to emotional turmoil,suffering ,sadness - all of which I went through in college by believing this thought .Fast forward today , I have graduated and I rarely think of that beleif as well as I have replaced it with better ones - I can get a someone if I continue putting myself out there.
Secondly , you can replace it with I don't know weather I would get laid ot not .
Now a these days whenever guys tell me I won't get a girlfriend it feels little hurt for a while but eventually it bounces off my chest .

I was also confused about the same .By the way I prefer philosophy as a lifestyle .
