The Battle-Tested Spirit

Not the motivation discipline, the kid discipline.<ul><li>Punish yourself when you don't achieve your targets.</li></ul> Be your own Sargent, make yourself do 50/100 pushups.✔ Positive punishment, in behavioral psychology, involves the addition of an aversive stimulus to decrease the likelihood of a behavior✔ Positive reinforcement—rewarding desired behaviors—rather than punishment, as it tends to be more effective in promoting long-term behavioral changes and maintaining a positive mindset

The Sentinel of Shadows

I rest at the thought of my community being the best people, that's why I create podcast episodes, and deepstash ideas.

In this episode, delve into a transformative journey where life is likened to a business, your thoughts compared to flowing rivers, and your role as both CEO and gardener of your existence. Explore the power of positive thinking, the philosophical landscapes of nihilism and Satori-lism, and embrace the wisdom of Shunryu Suzuki and the Chronicles of relevance. Join us to navigate the intricacies of karma, the fluidity of thoughts, and the importance of being present, all while discovering the art of self-love and finding solace in surrendering to a higher power. Notes:   Life Approach:   Treat your life as a business, and see yourself as the CEO.   Spectate yourself to gain perspective.     Positive Thinking:    Convert negative thoughts into positive ones.   Emphasize the importance of spelling smaller words like "spell."     Gardening Analogy:    View your life as a garden; be mindful of weeds that can grow.     Open-Mindedness:    An empty mind is open to everything, ready for any challenge.       Empty Mind Analogy:     Definition:    Karma is the connection between mental or physical actions and their consequences.     Situation Example:    Overthinking a breakup can lead to negative consequences.     Accountability:    The responsibility for negative thoughts and feelings lies with oneself.       Philosophical Perspective:     Worldview:    Emphasizes a self-centric, dog-eat-dog world.     Zoom-out Perspective:    Encourages looking at situations in a broader context.       Relevance Focus:   Time Awareness:     Analogy:    Thoughts are compared to the flow of rivers and mountains.     Thinking Types:    Crystallized thinking is clear and organized; flow thinking is free-flowing and natural.     Thought Evolution:    Thoughts start fluid and gradually solidify into crystallized ideas.       Present Focus:    Emphasizes not dwelling on the past or worrying about the future.     Self-Identification:    You are a spectator to your thoughts; your life is in your control.     Gardening Analogy (Reiteration):    Your life is a garden; don't let negative thoughts (weeds) grow.     CEO Analogy (Reiteration):    Your life is a business, and you are in control.       Self-Love Exercise:    Instructs looking in the mirror and saying "I love you."     Love Yourself Message:    Loving yourself makes you resilient to external influences.     Faith:    Encourages leaving challenges to a higher power when they become overwhelming.
