@CuteCornDog That's great. I hope it helps in your healing process.

Self acceptance is key

The Snick within us must go on.

We assume that successful people are not happy. Bingo. They're happy.

@Himanshu great post. It's like following someone's example. That's how it should be and not jealousy. Having a role model in life is essential. A very thoughtful post.

Great advice. The one thing I observed is that you got great potential in advising people on life issues related to Goals, time management, task management, and consciousness, spirituality. Keep up.

@Stoica Doru i kinda get the feeling you're a Pisces because there are so many similarities between you and me. I feel exactly same. There's so many experiences that we're just so blind to. I'm happy for you. The power of the PRESENT MOMENT. THE POWER OF NOW.

@Toby Great topic today. Very inspiring. Just wow. Great insight Thanks Toby For sharing.

Now I want you to imagine that I'm constantly surrounded by megaphones. You could only imagine what it must feel like. So I've been wishing for some silence. Does pin drop silence bring you peace of mind ? I'm sure it does. So for the past three days I've been trying hard to meditate but no relief. No relief from megaphones. I am in deep pain. Is there a way to shut off completely from the outside world without going on a retreat because I won't be able to do that. Please help. Any tip would be highly appreciated.

@Joseph Maynor Buddha challenged Hinduism and then began his new movement of Buddhism. Buddha taught a way of life not a religion

My fav is Society fucks you in the ass

@Snick Wake up Snick. Quick quick. It's 6.am

@Nahm More like free choice. I can't change something even if I want to. See. That's how we don't have free will. A lot that happens in the world is not in our control. We are given choices and options and we choose out of those. So how free will ?

@Nahm Could you explain how we have free will ?

@Mondsee haha That's like a paradox.

And if they are then does it mean that we need psychopaths in society ?

They say total unity. Not sure what it means though.

Can't believe this. Revelation of the Century !

@Joseph Maynor Jo Maybe this happens in the beginning. Probably you need to wait

@Joseph Maynor Yeah I had this problem for quite a long time. Couldn't figure out how to cut through it. There should be a middle ground. This is my way of dealing with it. Do a strength and risk assessment test. Try first the strength assessment. Are you really ready to do it. What does it require of you. If you find your goal manageable, start one at a time with Baby steps. Do you feel you can do it better than before. If you genuinely believe that you lack the strengths or abilities, then take it slow. Do not be harsh on yourself. If you feel you can do it but Were just putting it off or just not interested, then do it because you need to cultivate the habit. Sometimes It's not the lack of capability but rather procrastination and lack of interest. Next do the risk assessment. Whether doing it is worth the effort you put in. What is the benefit vs Risk. In management classes, we call it Risk benefit analysis. If the risk is high, give up. If your benefit is more and risk is low, you should do it. Acceptance is important and is a part of compatibility and awareness process. If you don't know yourself very well, you can't accept yourself. Accepting yourself is a part of acknowledgement. In problem solving, the first step is acknowledgement. Also acceptance helps to reduce compatibility problems. If you're not compatible for a job/scenario you wouldn't do it, thus cutting your losses. It's like damage control. Also lack of self -acceptance is more or less like denial. Would you rather want denial than acceptance ?

What are the safety precautions that one should take ?
