  2. Holistic Work Ethic Work ethic is holistic. I have been dealing with a lot of difficult thoughts in the past that affected my ability to focus until things started to get better recently. I did some forgiveness to release past traumas and started to have less and less difficult thoughts. A few days ago I started to eat less, I notably reduced my quantity of rice and I noticed that it reduced the monkey mind a lot. I intuitively felt that there was a connection between digestion and thoughts. When I eat a lot my intestines works a lot and it results in thoughts storms, when I eat less my intestines works less, I feel lighter, my mind feels much more clearer and my ability to focus is better. I also feel less and less the need to cope by using social media, reading the news, or watching porn, and it feels great. The attitude of pushing through it even if it's difficult is unhealthy stage orange. It works when someone is healthy: eat healthy, exercise properly, don't have any huge traumatic baggage. The people who aren't highly healthy and who are able to do that have incredible willpower and even if they have incredible willpower, their work is most of the time not the best quality work. Being healthy and having a powerful system is simpler and more rewarding than pushing through it like an animal.
  3. Simple Tips to Improve Work Ethic Clear past traumas as most as possible: do breathwork, forgiveness, talk therapy, shadow work, etc. It will reduce parasite thoughts and improve mental clarity Eat healthy Exercise regularly Wake up and go to bed at the same time Change environment Remove distractions: people, social medias, etc. Progressively use force to break out of the laziness homeostasis

  6. I really enjoy your journal. This is very inspirational.
  7. It's funny because I thought about creating the exact same thread recently. I can relate to you, however, I can also see that many times I create excuses and I do feel satisfaction when I'm into my masculine side. Balance is important.
  8. You don't need to completely quit actualized.org, also many people provide insights with basic things here. I personally watch most of the videos and read this forum sometimes, but I mostly focus on basic things. I never did any deep spiritual thing (meditation retreat, psychedelics, etc), I'm keeping that for later.

  19. Because by being alone someone doesn't get too much conditioned by society.
  20. Looks like positive beliefs not aligned with material reality from my perspective. It's like being a work acholic and positively believing being able to work 70 hours / week for years without acknowledging that this is damaging the body. I think that many times the terms used on this forum are taken too literally. When sentences like "you are god", "you are infinity", "you are love", "life doesn't matter", "life is a dream", "everything is fine", "everything is perfect" are constantly repeated so much in a discussion space some people will start to take that literally and it will cause them problems in functioning in life. Truth is behind these words and these words are just words in the end and when taken too literally they become dangerous because they aren't the truth but only pointers. This is the same problem that all religions have, words are confused for the truth. Also, I noticed that this things happens much more often when the leader and the community use these terms over-assertively because it trigger emotions which then create belief systems. Something like that happened to me in the past with videos of Leo's that were more at stage orange. I consider that the over-assertive tone on videos like "How To Stop Being A Victim" or "How To Get Shit Done" contributed to one of my most traumatic period of my life.
  21. 22/05/2021 (Week 17) If any of what I wrote this week is true, it might be helpful if I... listen to my desires listen to my body admit having wants work for my wants do what I need to do to be happy take care of myself accept my high sensitivity to guide me through life

  23. Are you having thoughts about having thoughts? About having thoughts? About having thoughts? About having thoughts... ?
  24. I've been too stuck at the same place since two years now. I feel the need to move and travel again. I feel the need for novelty and the need to discover the world. However, the main issue that I'm facing is my family situation. My parents are old and we have animals to take care of. I cannot currently just change country without taking that into consideration. If I ever choose to move in the future, I will have to find a system to handle that. My dad will certainly cause some issues as usual because he doesn't trust anyone... So even if I find someone to take care of the house and the animals and if I pay for everything he will resist it unless he knows the person and already trust him/her... which is rare even for family members.
