Yes, many have. There's an entire category of literature on the topic: "Mussar" In general: "Tomer Devorah", By Rabbi Moshe Cordovero, the Ramak. - LINK In particular: Chapter 29 of the Kitzur Shulhan Aruch, the code of Jewish Law - LINK

I think Monster Energy might be onto something here, just not for the reasons he thinks. And there are better ways to solve Leo’s health issues than water fasting. Leo’s main issue is that his cerebrospinal fluid is loaded with heavy water (i.e. water that has a higher concentration of deuterium than the body was designed to handle). He is also living in Las Vegas, a place where the Earth’s magnetic field is super weak right now. The body uses the magnetic field to get rid of deuterium via vortices in the brain and heart, but when this field is low, the body loses the ability to get rid of deuterium. Why could dry fasting work? In this case, our cells can produce water that is by design deuterium depleted, and this might ultimately help the cerebrospinal fluid gain back its viscosity. However, there are much safer and effective ways to achieve the same outcome. First of all would be moving to a place on Earth where the magnetic field is strong - places like Costa Rica, El Salvador, Nicaeagua, etc. Basically places that are full of volcanoes. Then it’s also important to get lots of sunlight (without wearing any sunglasses or sunscreen), be in direct contact with the earth’s surface, and have your circadian rythm aligned with the sunrise and sunset. For more info on this you can check out the work of Jack Kruse, I think he is doing some incredible things

My advice? The fastest way to make remote income, in your situation, is through rental income. See if you can convince your parents to finance a real-estate venture. Offer them 50%.

Notion, Trello boards, productivity apps, planners They’re mostly bloat. I have a notion for my dream board and journals / notes and then a budget page I never use. I use the notes app on my Apple products that syncs with everything and Google Docs otherwise. This whole productivity app industry is 90% a distraction.

wtf it’s just a term of endearment

I woke up again without any sexual thoughts today. Its weird, a few weeks ago I had it evry day and then it suddenly stopped. I think the day it stopped was after the elvanse day, but you would expect things to get back to neutral .. Its either that my mind is used to lower stimulation and isnt searching so much anymore for a kick or ... I found alternatives again. I am searching up a lot about Super Mario and getting some decent stimulation out of that ... But on a socializing base I dont feel like my confidence dropped .. huh, hard to make sense of it then

I agree with you there. Separation is an illusion. And what we need to do is transform our perception so that we can clearly perceive this. I understand what you mean by that. When you make that shift, the world you perceive seems real, because that perception is no longer based on fear, but on openness. However, this perception is still based on the existence of your body. The surface is projected by your physical body, and the deeper levels by the energetic body. But when all levels of the body disappear, then the relative world also disappears, as if it had never existed, and what remains is reality. That's how I see it. -
Never in my 29 years of existence has this thought entered my mind 😂 But good on you!

A good fallback for starting a conversation with anybody is a Barnum statement. Statements that almost everybody feels like apply to them but still sound personalised “You look like you’re either gonna be the nicest person I’ve ever met, or like you’re going to ruin my life” It’s somewhat manipulative but as a means to an end for getting into a deep conversation it works well

Hatred and misconception are temporary states. Truth is eternal, always and forever. At death one enters into the realm of Truth. So, what's true? Eternally? In truth, each of those cycles is temporary. Each and every realization of truth, is forever. At death, and in glimpses prior, temporary states are subsumed within the realization of eternity. Within that realization there will, always and forever, be the sting of the errors in choices and perspectives, but, simultaneously, these errors will be connected with the eternal reconciliation. Here-and-now it feels like this reconciliation is distant, but, because it's truly-true, eternally, the reconciliation is always happening. Yes and no. While it's true that all mistakes are temporary, the last mistakes one is making immediately prior to death is a special case. It's always and forever true: that's the way they died. Nothing changed it. It lasts forever. That' the reason for the unique sting, amplified forever. But, at the same time, because the errors are forever connected to their reconciliation, the pain is offset. It's amplified after death, because, it's always true, that's how they died. But it's also being diminished, or sweetened, always and forever. No. The traditions you're referring to are very different than that. There is no law giving divine executive in these traditions. However a western born individual will have a difficult time divorcing themselves from that. The fear mongering leaves a sharp deep lasting impression. -
Lately I've found a joy in finding definitions for words and concepts, even though I might already know them, it gives extra precision and sometimes historical background. There's also something profoundly beautiful about a great definition.

I know this first hand. I was a loner most of my time between high school and my early twenties. I resorted to going out to bars and clubbing alone to build better social skills. It worked to a degree, but I don’t have a single person from that stage of my life who I still talk to, and I was still deeply insecure at the end of it. I also had baseline social skills already which is why that was even viable. Now I have a solid social circle of 4-5 great friends who I love dearly, and it has almost eliminated my social anxiety. I wish I had prioritised building that first instead of going straight to cold approach. Deep friendships are where you learn who you really are and how to express that in a way that is appealing to others.

You wore the whole birthday cake at school? Huh?
-
Agreed. Many of the folks I met in pickup communities simply had no real friendships. You can't go out and talk to random people from such a low place.

If I lived somewhere next to the sea, I would swim for sure
-
I see, makes sense. For me, swimming is more ubsustainable because you need to go to the pool to do it. With cycling, I actually notice that it's harder to push yourself as hard as with running. And I also don't feel like it transfers to running endurance well enough. A mix of all 3 is ideal though.

Its all parasites, bro.

I’m not talking about social circle game, I’m talking about making genuine connections with people and building friendships without the sole purpose of it all being to get laid. The kind of friendships where you can actually go and do social stuff together and just have a good time. That’s the path to developing basic social skills if you have none. This teaches you basic social dynamics, and most importantly it teaches you that socialising is actually fun, and not just a barrier in your way to getting laid. Cold approach can be good for developing social skills, but if you’re weird or cringy and don’t possess even basic social skills it’s just going to make it worse for you. You’re going to be continually told how weird or strange or awful you are which will totally destroy your self-image. Not to mention in a small town you will end up with a reputation.
