@Aamir King Start going to events on your city that you are interested in. Maybe these people are not enlightened but surely will be more productive and share interests with you. I like to use the meetups app for that

@Lorcan Maybe you have leprechauns stealing it lol only you can tell man, maybe you're overextending in your things, its tough to realize that you can't do everything in one day so you can learn from what you're living. What i like to do is put in my calendar app how i'm going to use my time and then stick to it, no more time no less, that way you can make it a habit and start making it on automatic. Don't give up and keep trying, that is a good way to "know yourself". Cheers.

Bump! I really want to know

Hey all, First a little contextualization, if you dont want to read here is the question: What are the main pros and cons of the coaching/psychology dichotomy? I have this family circumstance, it's been a hard year for me and although i've gotten better and i'm really happy with my results so far my family is not that happy. I think it's mainly because i'm unemployed but my efforts so far are not enough for them and they want me to become a full fledged professional (anthropology is my degree) or something more "conventional". They know i don't want anthropology (although i like marketing and innovation but here in Colombia is more of work with minorities and gov work) and i'm thriving for other areas more fulfilling to myself but whatever, i'm not bending. Anyway for some time they've been flirting with the idea of me and a psychologist/psychoanalyst, i don't like to wallow in the past and for my experience in anthropology, although i'm no expert, i dont trust on the psychology theory and methods to treat people. What i do like is the opportunity to share with someone and just talk, lately i feel that no one gets me and can't talk to anyone about my life, feeling a little alien i guess but i know waking from the matrix is hard (i know i have you guys and i love the community here but it's really different interacting with someone in person). I've had some approaches with coaching and i really like the fact that someone wants to understand me and get the best of me -contrary to someone judge me and wanting to fit into a specific mold. I'm not a coach expert neither but i think that would be my way. I'd like to ask you your thoughts about this dichotomy coaching/psychology and if someone could illustrate me on pros and cons that would be great. Also if some coach sees this you know you have a potential client

@Fantastic_Times Hey Ferdy, i feel you man. I'm not on Phd but i just left my career on anthropology and i know it's hard and really confusing to start again. I don't know your reasons for leaving the career but i think you got something solid and is your interest on interior desing, give it a try, maybe get some books, make a course online, go to a seminar about it.. what do i know, connect with it and see if it's truly your thing. If you want an advice is dont stay still, this has been a hard year for me because i got paralized after my decision and my inaction caused me hard pain because of that same question, what should i do? (I think removing the shoulds is helpful too, check this post) Just try new things, discover who are you and connect with it. Nobody can tell you who you are if you don't know first

Hey all, quick question. Is there something like too much information consumed? I'm currently studying for various fields of my life and i pass pretty much all of my time at home reading and studying. Lately i've been having this feeling that there's too much info coming over my head and it creates this feeling of uneasiness/anxiety. I think it's related to the amount of info i'm using because it starts to appear some hours after i start. Would like to read your comments about it

Thanks a lot to all! Just read your comments and they are really useful. I think one of the main reasons i was feeling conflicted was that i didnt have an aim with all this information i was obtaining so, as some of you said, i wasn't implementing it in my life. This weekend i opted to make a weekly planning and while doing that i had to define some other aspects of my current projects. This has given me much relief, although im just starting implementing it, because it forces me to apply all this knowledge im gaining while i keep learning. Will be updating you as time passes.
