Insights about self-actualization derived from Russian-Ukrainian war

1 post in this topic

I regularly watch interviews with Oleksiy Arestovych and Mark Feygin. Arestovych is a brilliant mind, and I consider him to be SD stage yellow. He was once asked, why there is no advancement on the frontline in recent times. And he replied that Ukraine is systematically destroying stocks of Russian ammunition depots: Russian depots are slowly drying out, while Ukrainian weaponry gradually increases in power, bit by bit. And when the situation of significant prevailing of forces happens, we see counter attacks like in Kharkiv and Kherson region - he says.

I think that's the key.

If I would I apply it to my life I would do slightly different things than I'm usually doing.

I'm a 3D modeler, I'm sitting the whole day. And on the weekends I push myself to do tutorials on 3D, so my weekends are also sit-full. I notice that these courses that I take stagnate - I may waste time tweaking unimportant details and making mistakes - because my body is underexercised, and in the stagnated body resides stagnated mind. Basically, I don't have enough health 'stock' in order to have my career 'offensive' going at the desired pace. So what I need is to build up health and vitality stock in order to 'attack' rapidly. This applies to everything:

  • I need to accumulate a lot of savings, to be able to buy the best courses, buy a new computer, 
  • if I would increase stock of my concentration and attention my art would also see a tremendous improvement because I would make not the easiest but best decisions
  • if I would improve my vision, my art also will see an up, because sharp perception contributes to a sharper mind
  • if I build a strong stock of health, I would be able to work longer and go through the periods of overworking more smoothly (right now I'm burning out really quickly)

Russians chase all wrong goals: instead of accumulating stocks in order to prevail on the battlefield, they mindlessly throw the best soldiers on useless attacks to capture territories that they'll lose anyway because they wouldn't have the means to defend them.
