Everything. If one thing is tweaked, everything needs be tweaked with it. The spirit must evolve as one to ward off any imbalance.
Consistency is the goal.

Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.
Ditto. What are you tweaking?

True. It's a domino effect. Do you pinpoint areas of change, address them as needed or a bit of both?

Probably a bit of both. I have notebooks at home FULL of notes. I literally am my own psychologist.
I had lots of counselling in 2014 - and I can't recommend it highly enough. Even if you're fine, it's worth debriefing with decent physiologist. They give you all the tools you'll ever need IF you want them.
You can't be too private if personal awareness is your goal. You've got to open yourself up and let a professional take a look. It's similar to servicing a car.
I completely agree, I've never had professional therapy but definitely will go when I get a chance to. I use to think it would be really weird to dump all my problems on someone who isn't going to talk it through with me but I have things built up now that I don't want any like...back and fort on, I just want to say it to get it out of my system.

Some people record those things on tape... and then burn the tape.
I love it! I'm a deep thinker and pulling back the layers is my jam. I go excavating frequently. Self-awareness is priceless. It enables me to see life from different angles and adjust my thinking and behavior as needed.
Are you drawn to a specific philosophy? Maslow, behavioral and positive psychology are big influences for me.
We went through a horrible reorganization. The atmosphere was toxic with lots of firings and layoffs. My boss was pursuing me and trying to convince me to relocate and work for him through the parent company.
I developed migraines and saw someone in behavioral medicine. We met once a week. He was dumbfounded about the things I shared. I was doing two jobs due to a promotion. And my boss kept pulling me into other things outside my role. I considered a position on a different line (in the company) in Texas. But my gut (and the psychologist) were telling me to decline the offer and jump ship. I did and never looked back.
P.S. This thread has been amazing, it's been everything but flirting but it's been my favorite to check in on and see what's being talked about haha
Yeah, I bet you never imagined all of this when you posted back in 2010.
I think it's a much more adult setting now. It's mostly 30's to 50's. Even the 20-somethings here are levels above their peers.
It's just a sign of the era we're in now.
Nothing specific. I think my only real axe is mind expansion through non-psychedelic means. If I have a thought, I'll spice it every which way and rebuild it in 5D. You probably hear me talking about the idea of new colours that the eye hasn't seen before - well, that's a euphemism I use when explaining my thought processes. That's why I love avant-garde so much, that's my space to demonstrate it in a visual form.
That's the point I make about not being too private. If you bottle everything up ALL of the time, then no one can help you see what you're actually doing wrong.
That's the problem more often than not - people just DON'T know what they're doing wrong.
Or, as you say. You might be begrudging a funny tale.
I reference mine as a flow chart but it's really akin to a mind map. I enjoy the mental zig zag and fleshing an idea out like an octopus. Each tentacle representing a train of thought I follow that inspires the next and so on.
That probably comes from early exposure to mental games. My aunt would only play Scrabble, checkers, and chess. She had a 40-year advantage and wouldn't back down at all. I did lots of puzzles and activities using strategy for good results.
When I returned to God I wanted to jump on a stage and talk about Him like Joyce Meyers but with Beth Moore's energy. He shifted the topic but the desire never left. It's the nakedness that thrills me. Baring your soul and using your experiences to shine a light which helps them see beyond their circumstances. You're an ambassador of hope.
I'd say my way is similar to a flow chart. The only difference is that I'm taking all of those tentacles and 'spurs', then redesigning them slightly, before joining all of them up into this new five dimensional, obscure shape to form ONE new, single idea. A lot of it will come without much thought at all - usually when I'm resting in meditation or listening to Raga, classical music, or even Reggae.
I don't actually know where my way of thinking comes from, I was a complete failure in school. I actually think it was bred through the boredom of living on my own with 300 cows. Some of those milkings really dragged on, my mind had to wander somewhere.
I had delusions of wanting to coach "down and out men" into a life of authentic manhood. I soon realised that it wasn't my job to do that, and backed away from the idea. I developed a bit of a messiah complex when I was 22/23. It soon mellowed out, but my jealously of Jesus still remains. I think I've always wanted to be Him if I'm honest - I think that's why Buddhism appealed to me so much. If I couldn't BE Him, then I'd become another version.
I know that's a strange thing to say, but it's true.

Tell me about it. I come in here to learn how to flirt and everybody's talking about 'pinpointing change' and flowcharts and non-psychedelic mind expansion (like reading?) and Maslow's hierarchy.
I don't think you can learn to flirt. I think you either have the gift, or you don't. But then again you could also say that flirting is different for everyone, and what works for one person doesn't another.
If they can put a man on the moon...
If it can't be learned I could be in trouble, so let's act as though it can and see how we go...
