Your body keeps the score. I keep the safe space.
From stuck-to-growth chats to “Legend” replies and silly side comments. Vents, rants & real growth welcome.
Remote contact removes many small social cues.
The tone, pauses, and facial feedback are missing in the remote connection.
We find that ambiguity gets filled in by assumptions, often negative ones.
Sunday today, thinking about tomorrow, not feeling so grrrrrrrrreeeeeaeeeetttt....
Oh wait, tomorrow is a public holiday - I am doing super great.
Chucking the Monday mood to a Friday swing🤪😜🤣
Psychology explains that the mind can turn memories into vivid senses…Perhaps I just had that…I just had a vivid memory that flurried my senses. Mark… my Mark, died over a year ago.
Status is partly visible metrics.
Likes and views become quick proof of worth.
External scores can crowd out internal standards if they are checked too often.
Chuck (not CHECK) your phone.
I quickly turned around, hoping to come face to face with the man I love and lost…but instead, a gust of strong wind blew into my already frozen face. Snow on windy winter nights can be very torturous.
It’s been a while…
A long winter run this year: the dreadful chill in the air, the spikes of cold up the nostrils summoning sneezes, raining tears and a dry-mouth sensation. I hate winter with passion; it never brings me anything good but memories…
The firmness of his skin with prickly hair. His voice, deep and beautiful…ringing in my ears…ringing in my ears, his voice…his voice next to my ears, his breath so warm on my neck that I froze.
All the warmth was gone; a chill crept up my spine, bringing goosebumps. My mind racing, millions of questions came flooding in, with just one that stood out as I grasped and said out loud, “Mark?”
Multitasking often feels efficient, but in fact it usually is not.
The brain switches; it does not truly parallel-process demanding tasks.
The switch cost is the focus.
People ask algorithms what to watch, buy, and believe.
Personal taste narrows without notice.
Warning:
Repeated exposure starts to feel like preference.
Sleep loss is treated as ambition.
Short sleep leads to worse mood control, weaker memory, and more impulsive choices.
The mind does not run better on less recovery.
Many habits today are designed by someone else.
Apps set defaults, cues, and friction.
We can argue that behaviour follows the path of least resistance more often than personal values.
Great job, lil buddy👏👏👏
Kids need to figure things out on their own.
For the development of the brain and body, parents should avoid doing everything for their kids.
Great lesson for both parents and children.
Our work blurs start and stop times. Without a clear end, the nervous system stays half-alert.
Creating poor boundaries with fatigue that sleep alone does not fully repair.
