Hi. I am just downloading images from the internet. I have not thought of AI, nor I think I need it for this. I arrange the images in PureRef in case you don't know. Its a free pc program that allows to create a kollage very easily just draging images. You can easily create different reference collections there to look frequently.

Two possible outcomes: It would win you every time You will now every possible move and why they exist

I think Love is the only answer

Avoiding it. That's the only way you'll end up meeting people that won't create conflict mindlessly. It is like a virus and you'll quickly adopt a conflictive attitude. It is easy when you have nothing to lose, but often times you'll have to sacrifice a paid position or friends.

Why is this on Life Purpose, Career, etc sub forum though?

Literally and not joking: good sleep. You wake up more creative and doubts give space to new answers

Practicality is highly related to philosophy and I would not separate them that much. The way I see the role of philosophy is in thinking deep how things should really evolve in society, to mantain equilibrium and to inform the best possible decisions. This is a really modest way of doing philosphy, but I think that it applies to whatever work you choose to do and it will naturaly put you ahead of the curve. All of that while understanding that we need hard skills everyday and you're probably not gonna make money without it. Something that I did not understand is what you refer to when you talk about "liberal secondary education" or "liberal arts"

CVs nowadays are a good portfolio, landing pages and a dedicated instagram profile

I wonder why you guys think it is a mistake, what's wrong with working at a coffee shop per se? Looks like fun experience and not everyday you're served with a job oportunity at home

I don't have any idea for you. I am currently deciding what to do for a living myseld and trying to aquire as much skill and knowledge as possible. But I do have some questions: What exactly you do as an administrative associate? What about it that you really love? Did you choose to work at an university because you like education? Could you create a business on your own that entails that kind of skill and how it would look like?

Maybe you need to determine how many hours of work you need to feel satisfied. There is a problem of not working enough, as weird as it sounds. But work-ethic = satisfaction, be it studyng or working on a proyect and probably both combined if you want to mantain a creative conection.

This is hands down one of the hardest things you can do, to create a powerful purpose. Time really goes fast, at a blink of an eye 20 years will pass and the worst nightmare wold be to have nothing you're passionate about.

One great way to boostrap and learn this skill is by reading practial self-help books about relationships and friendship. There must be pretty good autors out there which I am missing since I don't read that topic. You should create a selection of books to read after some research and share it here. Having a realistic look into what it takes to hold a relationship sets a good foundation, to learn how to be an interesting person and what other people would expect out of you in a friendship. Then you need to put you in a life situation where you're around people, like-minded people, which is very doable and only takes some planning. I don't have more solid advice since it is something I am learning myself and it is definitely a life journey.

@LookingForTruth Thas was a shameful comment of mine. I do like to contemplate parenting a lot and to see what kinds of things would traumatize or not to your childs even though I am not a parent myself. I should have displayed it in a much better way. Is a topic I could conversate for hours. Do not take it personally, I definetely don't know you so don't need to explain nothing.

The Maslow Hierarchy of Needs can shine some insight: This image is from the Wikipedia page. Is a big picture of what you're gonna need if you're gonna pursue intimate relationships or beyond. Often overlooked or misinterpreted. You may think is bs, but then you proceed to build a house of cards and when it falls you realize what is actually important. As a simple example, if you don't eat properly and don't exercise regularly, then you won't have the drive to be present when socializing. If you're not present when socializing then how are you gonna attract women? It would be pointless to focus on how you dress and memorize some lines in that case. But, there are no rules written, so you do you.
