@batshadow that's like 80% of it
wish i heard that before going into uni - nice one batshadow
np
We can do it mates.
The idea of analyzing life is very interesting to me, sort of the ideal of being rational and maintaining your reason at all times
trying not to be overwhelmed by emotions or desire
Risk/ reward that's very heavily weighed towards risk
Thats why I am doing NNN tbh
noiceu
at the moment I just want to acquire as much relevant knowledge as possible
@Aristorien yeah after you cut out fapping things start to get surreal
@batshadow what's relevant to you?
I just ordered Gorge Orwell's 1984
relevant knowledge*
Should be a good read @batshadow
That's something I'm still trying to figure out so rip
But knowledge is meaningless unless you can apply it, thats why I think the mind body and spirit trifecta is so important
@Aristorien that's why shit posting helps calm the mind because you can express thoughts that otherwise would have to be suppressed
@batshadow you ordered?! Noob! Just pirate!
It’s free on iBooks probably
@Null This, I had an experience today where I was able to talk to someone about a hobby I had a while ago. Really lifeted a weight off my shoulders
welp
too late to turn back now
guess I'll just keep the paperback and re-read it to the ground
especially from being isolated for a long time
lots of suppressed thoughts
@Daribig relevant knowledge is like wisdom. Which is to say it's the understanding of underlying concepts and seeing them in places where they aren't obvious
i've been contemplating what brings intrinsic happiness in my life, and anyone's life, and i've come to the untested conclusion that being able to satisfy your curiosity through innovation is what brings me happiness = thoughts?
@Daribig Satisfying curiosity is important to following your own way in life
it is important that you don't let it come to nothing though
We like challenge, and are unhappy if it's too easy. SO, you're onto something @Daribig
you have to turn it into something productive, a sort of vocation
I find that intensely focusing on anything balances the spirit
I mean
carnal desires and women only get it the way of your calling and sets you off balance
i've been thinking about the state of 'flow' and how being able to control when you can dip in and out of 'flow' would be one of the greatest skills to learn - anyone done some background reading on flow state or entering deep focus at will
I ***am*** trying to program for a reason
