  1. My vision for my Qigong is very precious to me. The more I learn, visualize, receive feedback, and have small wins feel good to be creating something. Small wins. I have had a very positive impact on others through Qigong. It’s only scaling, deepening, refining now that has to happen. I am creating something amazing.
  2. Keep Developing that Winner’s Image 🌅
  3. Build your infrastructure for life!
  4. No, we have people with lives trying to heal and people trying to heal them. Easy for you who don’t even work in health care to judge when you sit on your high horse judging away. You try to help people with all kinds of problems. Let’s see how you do. I don’t think it’s a perfect document. But, it used in combination with other resources can be useful for learning, healing etc. Though, there is risk to labels, categories etc… which is one of the main downfalls of western health sciences.
  5. I have to be always wary of my own self deception, corruption, hypocritical nature
  6. When I am angry with the marketing course… I feel guilty and don’t want to use what they taught me. They did teach me valuable things. J should try to recognize those things. Were they worth what they charged me? No. But, they could help for sure. Maybe, after I use them and make money I’ll change my views, and feel bad for being angry with them. But, I’d rather do that and make some money, help my clients etc
  7. I’ve been doing better in my sleep and can feel the difference. I need more order in my life for the next couple years or decades. I need to become a finely tuned mature adult.
  8. DSM is imperfect for sure. But, it also can be useful. Reality is complex and patterns help to some degree.
  9. If I want to hold others to a high standard I also have to hold myself to a high standard. This is part of personal development that is painful and challenging but worth it I think. I will always to some degree be a hypocrite but, I will work on ironing out my hypocritical nature.
  10. The offer is only available on this call so act now
  11. @OmniNaut haha, they are neat little guys. Sounds wonderful!
  12. @Majed Plenty of books and stuff about that I think. Isn’t that the study of economics?
  13. I don’t know, but know you want to be getting enough sleep regularly. Regular sleep schedule and getting enough hours of quality sleep would go into play there
  14. @Yimpa Yeah, I’m learning life is sort of this weird thing I’m focused on honour the life I have, no the life I wish I had. Which, is all you can really do.
  15. I want to say I don’t know more often
  16. I definitely think 60 year thought art will, in many ways be more wise, mature and full of information that 28 year old me now. It bound to happen, as long as I live that long, don't have any strange diseases etc... my life long learning, life purpose and healthy habits I think will pay positive dividends. I am also letting go of my youthful identity and embracing I am an old bastard. You can't deny biology, or the truth of aging. But, I do think you can do the work to be cognitively sharper when older than others if you work on it.
  17. You have no idea if it’s going up or down
  18. I have some long term challenges ahead of me
  19. Moron isn’t a great word it has connotations of insult
  20. @OBEler I Will contemplate it more. I see plenty of dumb people who are young, and plenty old. Wise people are rare.
  21. None sense. You don’t lose wisdom simply by aging. Wisdom is the result of cultivation and refinement over many years. I know some very smart, active and creative people over the age of 60. It’s gross to me you called them dumb. There are dumb old people, in fact most of them probably. But, that is due to how they chose to live their lives largely, beyond an cognitive decline that would happen even to the most curious, healthy, active, life long learners. There is no one size fits all for Wisdom. My parents may not be was “smart” as me in some ways but they are wise. Intelligence is also sort of a nuanced term. You will have some form of cognitive change/ decline as you age. However, if you pursue life long learning and keep your brain, body and nervous system healthy you should be fine. Your youth is very valuable. However, don’t let aging be a limiting belief. Some of the best spiritual books I’ve read were written by men who didn’t start writing at all until 55. Some of the best current writers on mental health, addiction, spirituality, self help, etc are writing these master pieces over the age of 60.
