Just commit to doing nothing. Let addiction urges (phone, food, fucks) wash over and pass. Same with thought constructs - they're just duckblinds for addiction sustaining habits.
Stuck in traffic between two errands? That's your opportunity for a moment of zen.
Most people, I daresay, don't know how to just enjoy empty space. And life is mostly empty space - not triumph, not even struggle. |

Date: April 17th, 2017 11:40 AM Author: Exhilarant Box Office i'm pretty good at this but wouldn't this hamper my productivity such that i'll never ever reach TRUMP levels of ADHD- and insecurity-fueled success? more generally isn't this what western observers criticize as the indolence and fatalism of asiatics? (i.e. why goners who'd lost the will to survive in primo levi's holocaust camps were called musselmaner, "muslims") |
|
Date: April 17th, 2017 6:36 PM Author: Wonderful dopamine Trump enjoys every moment of his life. Believe me.
If you lose sight of goals because you enjoy your life too much, then you are better off not spending the effort to achieve those goals. They're probably someone else's goals that you've mistaken for yours.
In any event, goals are only useful as metrics. The process of becoming is what is important - and as the moment to moment experience of becoming is never painful in and of itself (though it may pain), it is hard to see how enjoying your undirected moments more would work against goal attainments. Enjoying life enables you to more easily get lost in a process that will produce goals as a byproduct.
Further, an attitude that things are good in the beginning, good in the middle, will be even better at the end prepares you to go from attainment to attainment happily. People in the max suffering camp tend to burn out - or procrastinate without quite knowing why. The self-compassion literature bears this out.
And I'm not endorsing fatalism; rather, it takes a voluntary act (many of them) to continuously appreciate the intermezzo moments. In fact, I'd think the attitude I'm endorsing is more Frankl-ish. |

Date: October 16th, 2017 10:04 AM Author: Wonderful dopamine Learn to detach your sense of self from your thought constructs, including the thought constructs constitutive of your sense of self. Self is defined in the negative - it is what is not other. But by reinforcement learning, people adopt the faulty notion that thoughts associated with self ARE self, and insuperable. They're not.
