So Many People are Fucked Up Every day I go out for a walk with my dogs, from time to time I meet a full of hate narcissistic person who as soon as he/she sees the dogs (even if they are leashed) they either take a stick or rocks in their hands. Here are some encounters that I had: One day, I was walking, the dogs were walking a little before me. They were unleashed, they were just walking peaceful, not even running, they didn't bark, they didn't attack anybody. A guy saw them and started to throw rocks at them. The guy saw me a few seconds after, I asked him: "What's the issue, they are not doing anything?" He responded: "You don't know what can happen." Another day, I was holding my two dogs by their leash. A guy saw me and started to grab some rocks in his hand and told me: "Careful with your dogs". I responded: "What's the issue, they are leashed?" Another day, I was walking and my dogs were unleashed. A guy appeared with a leashed dog and two kids. One of my dogs barked and he beat him with a stick. I wanted to talk to him to tell him that next time it would be better to keep our distance so that it doesn't happen. I couldn't even say anything because he beat the other dog (that was just walking peacefully) in front of me. He then screamed at me: "NEXT TIME I'LL FUCK YOUR DOG AND I'LL FUCK YOU TOO!!!" Today, I was walking again. I was holding one dog with a leash, the other one was unleashed (this one is calm, he can only bark a little sometimes), I also had two puppies (there are so small, they cannot harm anyone). A guy appeared, as soon as I saw the expression on his face, I knew he would cause some issues. So he took a meter-long stick and we started to look at each other in the eyes. I wanted to tell him that if he takes a stick and lives with rage animals will sense it. He didn't let me talk and screamed at me. Of course, I can understand that people can sometimes be afraid to see unleashed dogs and I can see how I can be at fault. Nevertheless, how they react is a huge indication of their consciousness. Some people scream, some people take sticks, some people throw rocks and some people just walk calmly. When unknown dogs walk close to me, I simply continue to walk normally without taking care of them and it goes fine 99% of the time. I find other reactions super annoying. This examples of me walking with my dogs are not the only one that I have about "fucked up" people: One day, I was just walking and a guy asked me if I like sex Another day, a guy started to ask me questions: What's your name? How old are you? Are you married? Where do you live? Can I come with you? On Facebook one time, I received a message: A guy told me that he was looking at me in the city and said that he wanted to suck my dick and wanted to have sex with me. He also sent gay porn images In my first job, my boss, an European guy who moved to Africa to build his business (probably because of the less strict rules and the low-cost labor) would explode from time to time in rage saying that he hated some people and wanted to kill them. He also shared his racism many times. I can easily notice these people now, I can notice them 10 - 20 meters away from me. Usually, their body language looks tight, they often look down to the ground, and most importantly their facial expression clearly expresses hate, anger, disgust, or arrogance. I wanted to help these people sometimes, just share a few insights to help them understand where their at, but it was impossible. As soon as I would open my mouth, they would shut me up. They are so unconscious, they cannot help themselves, everything that they say backfires on themselves and continue the circle of unconsciousness. There are total lost cases. I hope in the future when the world will evolve to green/yellow, that they will be free mandatory therapies and follow-ups for these people to make them evolve to higher levels of consciousness so that the world works better.

Quazi Johir This guy is great. I watched a few of his videos and the way he articulates his content is one of the best that I saw until now. His explanations and super clear and simple, it's a pleasure to listen to him. His channel is a perfect complement to Leo's content for basic stage orange self-help.

I live in a quite isolated part of the world. When I was a kid, I was watching a documentary about extraterrestrial life. After the end of the documentary I went outside and checked the sky and they were multiple dozen light orbs forming a circle and moving slowly. If I remember correctly, it disappeared after some time, but it was like the laws of physic didn't exist for these things. -

New Metric: Focus I'm going to add a new metric to my reports that will represent the intensity of my focus, it will simply be named Focus. I can work for longer hours now, but my focus isn't that great so I need to take it into account to improve my productivity. I often have unrelated thoughts when working and sometimes I tend to distract myself with other stuff on the internet. To improve my concentration I'm going to do the following each time that I caught myself being distracted: Inhale Exhale Let go of the distraction Relax the body Repeat steps 1, 2, 3, 4 multiple times Refocus on the work. For that, I will change my thought process, instead of keeping my focus on unrelated thoughts, I will think about what I'm doing and what needs to be done in the current situation so that the work can move forward I will rate my focus from 1 - 5: Near to zero focus A little of work, but a lot of distracting thoughts and attempts to distract myself Average focus, but still too much distracting thoughts and maybe some attempts to distract myself Good focus with a few distracting thoughts, but no attempts to distract myself Intense, deep, flow state

Healing Traumas I need to start working on my traumas. They continue to come back again and again, are breaking my focus when I work and making me prone to other abuses. These traumas include: Having a narcissistic stage red dad who highly humiliated me and criticized me most of my life Being bullied at school and being perceived as the loser of the school. This was happening because I was a very skinny, very shy, and very calm nerd kid Being highly rejected by most of society Being oppressed, highly criticized, and rejected by stage blue people Racism that I got Being exploited and abused by some people
