problem with trying to be self-confident is that you're trying to be someone you're not, denying your original self as not good enough to be someone that you feel deserves love and acceptance instead i propose to be confident in yourself, as you are. good enough as you are. it's an act of self-love

@Etherial Cat ah i remember seeing this a while back. mccain really has some good integrity
-
me sometimes lol on a real note, the CEO of jubilee, Jason Y. Lee, seems to have high integrity imo. - he is honest, fair and kind with his employees. in his videos he states his honest opinion, listens to their opinion, reflects back to them. he is also not a doormat because though he is empathetic he also is true with his own opinion -how he structures his relationships with his significant other is integrous. he is very value driven with her (he states and lives by the values he states) - his vision is noble (he is trying to create a more empathetic society). he is integrous to his soul in this because he used to sell himself to wage slavery and now he is following his heart I can share the videos where I got these impressions because I think nobody here knows him besides me probably lol. if anyone is interested in the rest i can share here's the one where he speaks about his vision and the steps to getting there. from fluctating between low to high integrity and finding his path along the way i think the main this is that he is very value driven. which i think from leo's video means can mean you are integrous

i think both sides need to be heard and seen and come together. self-bias has too much in play here.. both issues are valid imo. there just needs to be more nuance and not make it black and white. we need to approach this situation consciously both the metoo movement and anti-movement are flawed -

doesnt cancel culture depict otherwise? from noticing in the gaming community most people that were accused of something had like a 90-10 in favor of siding with the woman -

what would be a healthy relationship between two people? Some characteristics i can come up with would be: - stating your boundaries. respecting each others boundaries - stating your feelings. validation of each others feelings. validation of your own feelings - apologizing and taking ownership of mistakes/wrongdoings - being aware of your projections - having good conscious intentions - being emotionally conscious of how your actions impact the other person - being conscious of and voicing your needs - An intention of love and respect (i think this is the foundation) any and all thoughts are welcome. what would you add? what do you find important?

i have OCD and i use erp to conquer the fear. basically escalating the fear and sitting with it and eventually noticing there was nothing to be afraid of from the first place. the tricky thing with this though was that i noticed that the fear would just hatch onto a different topic. what would be a more permanent solution to this? i think it has to do with my overall happiness levels and food intake
-
Self - CBT is one solution. Or you can find a nice therapist. The work from byron katie can also help
-
Is it just nothing? Or also can it be confidence?

@Hardkill there are some famous studies that show that more money has diminishing returns for happiness Also it depends on the person and their psyche. It's more individual based and how they interpret their income You could be happy and fulfilled with lots of money and also depressed with lots of money But having no money is probably very painful and stressful
-
maybe on average. i have several friends who are in the top 1% of income. trust me, they are not happy one has a failing relationship, is overworked and is depressed because he is overweight. but he makes $250k a year at a comp sci job

''if you want to transcend something you must understand it and if you want to understand you must go meta.'' - Leo Gura An example from playing a video game. I wanted to beat people in my skill level. and the way I did it was 1. The Act: Died in game Going Meta: Looking at what contributed to my death in the game I died and going meta helped me see the reason of my death I had a mindset that was to engage their team by myself. However, the result of that caused me to die. They all focused me and killed me at once. I saw that my mindset was shooting myself in the foot. Instead of engaging the team like that it is better to Transcend: From going meta and observing the situation from a birds-eye view, this gave me the needed information to understand what was happening. From here I was able to transcend and develop a new solution. To go even more meta I suspect I need to: see how my mindset is contributing it. and what mindsets are needed to be high level what type of gameplay is required what kind of communication with the team is required
-
Yeah they say journalling after a session is a great way to improve on a skill . My guess it might promote conscious growth When you're going meta, what are you doing exactly?

for me exposure therapy worked. problem was that i stopped practicing it and it morphed into different forms of OCD. takes effort but manageable ime. you may need a holistic solution because for me, my ocd is weaker when i am happy. so doing things that reduce stress and make you happy can be part of your solution. so like good sleep, relationships, meaning/purpose, meaningful goals, living by your values etc. also mindfulness was helpful too. like allowing the fear when the fear comes and just let it rock without any reaction to it. this is helpful for me as well (eckhart tolle stuff) btw when i first started learning about it, mark freeman's course called brain school helped me a lot. it taught me some useful principles on how to deal with OCD
