  1. This really made me giggle ? the reason I stopped using it was because I could access other apps whilst the trees grew ? @LfcCharlie4 I am ? I was in Liverpool just last week actually (not for a match although they played Tottenham the Sunday evening) What brings you to Actualized.org if you don't mind me asking? ? @Alissa This is amazing. Thanks so much for sharing your insights with me. I shall apply them and see how I get on. Very motivational ? ?
  2. @Anna1 I've just started seeing the benefits of post it notes... Where have they been all my life ? @PenguinPablo Been using forest app for sometime, it's great! Literally just started using calendar apps as well... I'm a newb ? @Girzo Toggl? @Zigzag Idiot Love this! @LfcCharlie4 Thanks for your input. Off topic but are you a Liverpool FC fan? More productive in just getting shit done, nothing in particular. Just I've never been busy before, this busy is all new to me... I've never had to be productive ever so I'm learning. @SoothedByRain Cheers dude, you're always so helpful ?
  3. @Shroomdoctor great angel to come at it! Splitting day into two! Thank you ? @Shiva Yeah my meaning was the same as how you describe it, just hear they use the name time management but I totally see what you're saying and it makes hella sense ? Yes I've looked into Pomodoro but I'll look into it again as a refresh. Thanks for your time () @Shiva
  4. Wow. Absolutely beautiful
  5. When do you know it's time for another psych trip? ??
  6. Op I eat shit loads of fruit and veg daily ((more organic the better)) shit loads of plant protein (I'm a plant based mofo) I strength train twice a week, do moderate to high cardio three times a week and also lots of rehabilitation exercises. I use the knowledge I have about nutrition to optimise my training and I'm getting great results. For me this works best... My advice would be to experiment and listen to your body and equipt yourself with knowledge from all nutritional perspectives. Edit: all my iron, calcium, vitamin levels are extremely healthy and I haven't touched a drop of dairy/ egg or meat in over a year.
  7. @DrewNows Yeah I see what you're pointing at. Thanks so much all ?

  11. There is only silence On the mountain tops Among the tips of the trees You perceive barely a breath Even the birds in the forest Keep still and are silent Wait then Just a little while longer And you too Will find peace at last
  12. @flume Exactly. We where just fed what they wanted. Can I ask why you find learning enjoyable? Specifically? You can't force it no, it has to come from an intrinsic place. For a while I disregarded learning because I had this belief that it would 'take away' or not 'leave room' for wisdom (believe it or not ) I found learning to be a burden. I hope I am still wise to the limitations and traps of learning but I try and use the bits I need to actualize my life purpose. It's definitely backwards yes, first they should teach us how to learn and also how to validate things for yourself rather than shove things down our throats ((although they have also had things shoved down their throats)). Would take a conscious person in government to help overthrow this nonsense educational system. Thank you lovely Xx
  13. 1 hour ago I laughed so hard I pee'd a little
  14. I noticed the way I understand something is to learn about it's origin and the deeper meaning behind it. This is exactly how I learn, this is what engages me and draws me deeper into the subject regardless of what it may be.
  15. @Dlavjr Go and contemplate what your health (life) would look like in minimum 8 years if you continue. Go and research the effects on your body.
  16. I also managed to finish math homework today which is a new thing for me, finally taken responsibility of my learning after realising that society had wiped my arse for far too long. As a child growing up education wasn't really a value so I was able to walk out of school and skip school with no punishment from my parents. They never forced me to do anything academically. Over the last 6/7 months or so I started learning how to learn but amidst that process limiting beliefs and old patterns showed which I have been working through. I'm finally getting to a place now where I'm actually learning and researching independently. Very liberating and new
  17. Today has been tough, One of the injuries has flared up immensely and I found myself feeling somewhat shit as the mobility is restricted enough without more issues. I asked myself out loud. "What is the lesson in this?" I came to the conclusion it's acceptance. That's the lesson. There is a reason as to why there's so many injuries present at the moment and for some reason I don't feel it all stems from my biology. I feel this is deeper. Too many injuries in such a short space of time, it's like coincidence or something. There's a lesson in there somewhere and I'm still searching. I've also been practicing vulnerability. A lot, this seems to be a theme at the moment. Last month I had an odd evening in which I could feel ego, literally, trying to control and cause the suffering, I stripped off all my clothes on the bed and surrendered to 'myself' I cried and cried, I held my palms up to the ceiling and screamed through teared eyes. "take it then! (me, ego) I don't care anymore!" I just didn't give a fuck anymore. The suffering I had gone through that weekend led me to that point... to a surrendering to 'myself' literally observing 'myself' in all it's glory. After all, we only hide and lie to ourselves ultimately anyway so I exposed myself to 'myself' It was odd but liberating (afterwards) So in the relationship currently I observe the way ego protects itself and hides behind certain narratives and concepts in the mind. I expose myself to my partner and by doing this leaves no room to hide, It's painful... fuck its painful, I expose through gritted teeth but I know that's what I need to do.
  18. OP I went from smoking from the age of 13 and quit at the age of 26. I then vaped for 3 years. I then decided to completely cut out the nic from thr e-cig just this year, I'm not going to lie it wasn't easy to quit but it wasn't the hardest thing ever. The 3 week long night sweats were the hardest thing for me to deal with. Yes I did crave extra food (naturally) but I substituted unhealthy food cravings for healthy foods (such as low fat low sugar soups for example) and then just 2 weeks ago I noticed how much I wasn't even picking up the e-cig anymore so I decided to quit that also. Yep I've struggled because like you I genuinely thought I was using it to handle stressful situations... turns out that's bullshit. I've smoked something from the age of 13 so I never knew what it was like without any sort of vice and now I don't smoke anything... I know the bullshit your mind tricks you into with them... You will actually get on just fine without anything I promise you. Like Michael said though, you have to make your mind up on what you actually want to do otherwise you just won't do it. You need anymore advice or guidance be sure to let me know x

  20. Where do I even begin?... my god. So this part of my life has to be called, rehabilition, life purpose and no time Basically still at the gym every evening for around 2-3 hours working on specific injuries. Bursitis in right shoulder, tendinitis in right shoulder, slight burstitis in left shoulder, bursitis in right hip and 2 swelled knees in which hey aren't sure why yet. I have had all sort of blood tests done and they have came back fine so its not auto immune related as we know. At the gym every night I follow a set planned training to gain muscle around weak joints, gain flexibility and rehab the other injurires. So that's everything taken up. I started studying again (psychology and math). I am struggling with the math that much that I've had to hire and pay for a private tutor on a Wednesday evening. So a lot of my other time is taken up with attending college or home study. Also after the gym each evening I go on video call to my PT to give him feedback each on each gym session so we can keep a close eye on the pain etc. With regards to life purpose... I'm pretty sure I have found it (99%). I dedicate other slots of my time to reading books and studying my hobbies (psychology, coaching and consciousness work). What else has been going on... where do I even start ... Okay so with regards to the new relationship... all I'm gonna say is one word... mirroring and questioning. This relationship has probably been the biggest factor for personal growth I have ever come across. I've never suffered so much If you take 100% responsibility for the way you feel 100% of the time you will grow. Fact. I've also gone through and are going through many of existential crisis due to questioning and contemplation. I honestly hand on heart have no fucking idea what is real anymore. I don't even know if 'truth' exists. Is truth something humans created to feel comfortable? Who knows. Everything is a perspective inside a simulation. Last night i went through what can only be described as a 'mini' ego death of sorts. I came to realise that I had taken Leos teachings, spirituality on as an ideology. Last night during meditation this occurred: demonic images and my greatest fears occurred, flashing in my minds eye over and over again I reacted with tears but I remained still and present. Then the insight occurred (as I mentioned I have been questioning over and over ((paired with microdosing))). Resistance was obviously super strong but after letting go and surrendering I burst out in to a deep state of sadness. It felt as if I was letting go of an old friend or something. Letting an old lover go. Very hard to try and communicate this into words. Okay... so what else has been going on. I've continued microdosing which has been a roller coaster of a journey. I've been working with limited beliefs I didn't know I had. Working on old childhood stuff that has been unconsciously keeping me stuck as an adult. I've actually taken responsibility for my learning and I'm now able to go away from college and do all my own empirical investigations into what the college curriculum states as truth. I have been becoming more and more creative, this creativity has just been beaming out of me lately and I've been looking at different new ways of channeling this energy. I had some messages and hidden signals in my dream that I have been following up with ((gonna post this before My battery goes)) 1/2...
