Living my life in boxes, a key ingredient to survival◽◾

[Preety_India]

I urgently need to survive. I don't have time to think about how much room I can give to someone else.

To reorient yourself. 

 

[Preety_India]

After some deep contemplations over the last few days,  I have realized that I need deep system reprogramming. 

I need drastic change in my way of life.

And this means I need to be a bit ruthless which I find very difficult to be because I'm this super emotional Empathetic person. So being ruthless feels like a hard job. 

But I gotta do what I gotta do and stop guilting myself for taking care of myself. 

It's not good to continue doing. 

It's like torturing myself.

I have come up with a method to deal with this specific neurotic issue. 

The strategy is to categorize myself into a box and categorize everything else into a box as well. 

Too many boxes yes. 

Only those things in life that resonate with me will find an entry into my personal box. I'll label it as Preety Box. 

Rest of the boxes will contain the things that don't resonate with me and they will have their own category. These boxes will be kept together yet all of these boxes will be placed at a distance from me. 

The degree to which these boxes are placed away from me indicates how far or how close they should be in relation to me or my life. 

If they are close, it means I can still peep into them and share some of their contents with me. 

If they're placed far, these are things I need to avoid. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A guy on here endearingly called me Missy. 

So I'm going to adopt that as my nickname here. 

I'll call myself Missy. 

 

How is the plan Missy?

My office

I wanted to be a psychologist. 

I have written about that before on this forum. 

I wanted to have my own office. 

I'm taking inspiration from Dr Grande from YouTube. 

I am learning effective psychological resources from him. His research comes handy. 

So I'm going to post a lot of his stuff to keep a record of whatever I learn on a daily basis to help myself with my psychological degree. 

And dream that one day I'll become a good psychologist. 

I'll classify all of these new learnings and Grande related research work under a sub journal called 'My Office', I have another sub journal called 'Home Sweet Home.'

One is to have a broad general category of 2.

Healthy/Beneficial/Neutral(is this me) 

Unhealthy (Not me kind of thing) 

 

This categorization can be recontextualized  as 

— is this within my box? 

— is this outside my box?

There are of course categories and they are too many. Will explain those later. 

 

[Preety_India]

In order to be very efficient at this technique, I need a basic framework or base

Which means this. 

I need to be good at knowing what's good for me. 

I need to have a basic idea in my head of what is that I want. How would I know if something is benefitting me if I don't even know what I want and what I don't want to begin with. 

So i need to have a clear idea of what I want. 

Secondly.... 

I need to be more Self—connected, Self—aware, Self —aligned, Self—conscious in order to be more in tune with my inside self or inner self in order to quickly be aware of what I need/want and what I don't need/want and what resonates with me and what doesn't resonate with me.. 

This is a good exercise to begin. 

I'll call it the  Self-alignment exercise. 

I basically have to learn how to align with myself better each time. 

This means I have to Reorient myself. 

Alternatively I'll also call it as Reorienting Oneself.
