@Nilsi yeah .

@Nilsi ok.

@Nilsi I understood it a little. One of my friends told me that you are not Oppenheimer and you can't practice philosophy if you are a student of science.

: So I couldn't eat my antidepressants medicine one night. I was suffering (thoughts from the past like how girls treated me badly ), that I don't have a girlfriend , girls of my batch in college are dating other guys etc. Then after some time ( I guess 2 hours) I had an insight like I had a memory from much more before -- which I was telling my father to buy me a toy and when he denied I was angry, stressful, full of intrusive thoughts suffering for the thing which didn't matter .So I put that analogy to now like I was suffering for not having a girlfriend ( analogous to toy in my childhood) which is silly and it does not matter. I also like did self reflection ( feeling inwards) and I big smile came on my face .

@MarkKol yeah I have fallen into that trap . You will find someone as you have just 2 years gap of dating whereas I never dated in my life. I was only rejected , heartbroken , girls whom I liked got committed to boys other than me . However I think the solution is to realise that there will be new opportunities in the future.

@ryandesreu yes. @Leo Gura yes I asked to myself and the answer was yes absolutely.

@Max_V hurrah you are overcoming a huge obstacle.

@Someone here😂😂😂😂 but my story is real .

My life story.

@Leo Gura I posted my life story on Claude and told it to rank my resilience(ability to bounce back from setbacks) on a scale of 1-10? Here's the summary.Is it true , am I not deluding myself with these prompts but the story that I have provided of my life is real.

@Leo Gura is negative self talk a trap . I have found that during suffering when I become concious or live in present and do positive self talk it improves my mood .

Guys , how do I practice detachment for most situations in life or Karma yoga ?

@Rahul yadav thank you.

@Leo Gura by percentage I mean my college marks in this case. How much they matter in placement packages ?

@Max_V I felt bad hearing it my friend.

@Butters it can count as knowing the book but I think that reading physical books is worth it. Till date I have bought 4 books (3 Self help and 1 philosophy which is meditations) and I would say that reading actual physical books is worth it. Even tough I have 1 Kindle ebook.

@Leo Gura Resilience means bouncing back from adversity or negative situations in life. So, I am worried that weather I will get a good job during campus placements or not or I will be unemployed. So is the solution that having a backup plan that even low paying job I will get , I will take it because as an engineer/ scientist my experience would matter and if I didn't get a job in campus placement I will try off campus placement. Also is an optimism too required that I can get a good job since I have a descent percentage of 76% in the 4th year of my 5 years of integrated masters of biotechnology engineering and I can perform better next semester by understanding the subjects?

So @Leo Gura doing negative visualization that things will go bad and what I will do at that + combining it with CBT helpful. Cuz I suffer a lot due to past issues and I have taken Cole Hastings self mastery course in which like there is a worksheet that relates to removing habits and creating habits. I choose to remove the habit of rumination to doing positive self talk during adversity and when that adversity is gone I write the number l have conquered adversity and till date I have conquered 52 adversities ( from the day I started writing my victories). Thanks to self mastery/self actualization and your YouTube channel. What are you're thoughts on resilience ? Thank you very much.

@Leo Gura is being pessimistic about problems like not reframing them and ruminating the issues from past also a trap. Even tough you mentioned negative visualization/ pre mortem to avoid traps. Thank you . A beautiful episode , I am doing negative visualization since more than 3 months.

How to move on if I am hurt by girls . Currently not wanting a girlfriend because placements will be starting from this semester onwards. Even tough I attracted some girls but I have never been in a relationship😂😂. How to heal ?

@Leo Gura thank you.

@bebotalk people who do bad actions act out of their own suffering.Yeah there are environments where negativity is encouraged and not everyone is equally bad.

@Leo Gura you made AI you're next girlfriend haha 😂

@Boris97921234 It depends on people but also you are in a great advantage as long as one does not have a toxic lifestyle like smoking cigerette, drinking alcohol , abusing people etc. as people in my college do.

@StarStruck it could be easy for me to say that but ultimately letting go can be used in this case.
