It is basically habit management. Meditation is just another habit you are collecting.

@EddieEddie1995 It sounds like you are doing good with dancing in the storm. Yes let me know about your yt channel.

@Carl-Richard

Sounds good but don't underestimate life it has some dirty tricks.

That is the problem. I might be a monkey but I am confronted in my daily life with homo sapiens problems. Monkey mode shuts down. Funny we are writing on the same topic in two threads. Our nature probably is similar to dogs and monkeys. We want to play around but life needs effort to create the conditions for play.

I am not shure if you can look at life like a game. I experimented with gamification but it did not work very good. One gets cocky and life slaps in your face. In normal games you don't have to be a wage slave if you lose the game.

The problem with me I am a recovering music and dancoholic. If I have upbeat music my monkey brain takes over. I am then in the stone age. Brain work becomes impossible. Additionally I might get banned from the forum because monkeys are not known to be conscious. Here is my hard drug:

Let's say you make party every day hang out with friends you ran out of money and can not pay rent. So you don't party that much only 3 days a week but after months and maybe years you dengenerate because you live a unhealthy lifestyle. Later on you don't go to parties at all because you feel more balanced and able to solve your daily problems in a sustainable way. You become a bit robotic and boring but at least healthier and sharper.

I can answer that because it is so damn hard. I guess you have to earn the right to be funny. Life is like driving a car if you make one mistake the punishment can be huge even if it is an illusion. So most people me included tried to be funny but it was to expensive. I think technically it is possible but I guess it is like the coca cola formula. It is not easy to find the right balance and stick to it.

@EddieEddie1995 I am experimenting with this: In general I am like that too but things get tricky when I am getting bored then I need something that keeps me going without getting to energetic. I don't know if music will work for me. Or maybe I am overstimulated and have to come down more that I get used to the boredom.

That channel is quite nice. I liked the one about synchronisation btw. In the comments there are many ADHD guys who can't do anything without music. But in general most people need stillness to be able to concentrate for deeper thinking. I was addicted to music specially dance music. Music gave me a lot but it made deep thinking very hard. I am experimenting to be able to have music and be productive.

I guess it is like never getting an orgasm again. For most it would be extremely hard. Mostly if it destroys your life people put in the effort to fight the addiction.

You are one of the few who likes it. Actualized forum is to serious without mushrooms. Leo is the more serious type he has not many viedeos where he is cranking some dance moves. Leo come on man!!

It is related but you can not see it

@wwhy wrong

Once you can walk on water people will beg you to give advice. Sometimes it looks like some people beg to give advice that is not asked for.

You have to experiment and play with some theories. I guess it is like with most habits. You have to make it a priority that is why to do it in the morning is good. After some days or weeks you can make it at lunch time or in the evening. In that time you make other habits your priority. After weeks you can make meditation a priority again and repeat the cycle. This way it may be more sustainable. Yesterday I meditated in the morning 40 minutes with breaks. This morning I did not do any meditation because today I wanted to make work my priority.

The survival of the most beautiful though make up is beginner level:

The 'what' and the 'how'

You might want a student sometime to teach him. That one would be a challenge.

I guess a lot of interesting things are going on doing that kind of stuff.

The hostile environment took probably a lot of bandwith and attention from his other duties.
