The Writing Addiction

I could call it the gambling addiction, the drinking addiction, the consumer addiction, the work addiction, the eating addiction….

I post or publish and I usually get a hit, a reward, a self esteem fix, a survival hack.

Lots of our evolution produced these ways, habits or degrees of desire/impulse to keep us alive. It is all through the animal kingdom and nature.

I must admit there is a bigger need for me to live.

So I like to write to be aware of its pitfalls and learn and practice to use it as a tool to live a better way.

It is ironic that I may learn to live better by being a better writer.

A good writer gives the reader something they need at a reasonable price.

So, I am asking you to take 3 minutes to read and think and act on what you now know.

My Body, my home and my phone….

What are three objects you couldn’t live without?

The human body is where I live and so is my place and phone.

I want to be my best and do no harm to one my body,two my home and three my phone.

I need to adapt them to a healthy lifestyle.

It is necessary for overall well being.

Getting Impulsive On your Device?

Okay, we have all been impulsive, but is it getting worse?

Yes, we impulsively look for stuff, do stuff, multitask, and more.

My solution is to become aware of myself doing it.

I spent an hour scrolling shorts on YouTube before bed.

Read this article about kids and then apply it to your own behaviour.

Awareness is key.

Live Selfishly

What books do you want to read?

Like Ayn Rand Says

There is a moment when contemplating will produce unexpected outcomes.

Like finding a birthday present for someone that seems to have everything.

Like reading the same book as my sister and establishing a dialogue.

Like discovering more from reading a book than writing about one.

I recommend the one above.

What things give you energy?

An inspirational book, movie, or song.

A person, place or thing.

A good workout, meal, and sleep.

A good life,

A good lifestyle,

A good way to be,

Eating Mindful supper tonight

It helps to go through the habit of a meal, before eating it in a mindful way.

It is useful to explore how each sense feels while eating the main course: steak with salt,pepper and a touch of saffron.

Again, with dessert, mango and raw almonds.

Simpler the better.

Shorter the better.

Perhaps, journal out what you ate how it felt, what you experienced during the meal.

Sometimes, it helps journal before or after doing dishes.

Bona Pettit!

AI On Bing Vs. Me: Stoicism

AI: That’s a good question. I think it depends on how you define a lifestyle and something more. For some people, Stoicism is just a set of tools and techniques that they use to cope with life’s challenges and improve their well-being. For others, Stoicism is a way of life that shapes their values, beliefs, and actions. For some, Stoicism is even a spiritual path that connects them with the divine reason or logos that governs the universe.

What do you think? How do you see Stoicism in your life?

Me: It is about Cicero, On Living and Dying Well. I referred to a big piece of it in my last blog entry on Michael’s Space. “Grab Hold Of Yourself And Stop Being Afraid Of Your Freedom”. My blog will continue to have elements in future blog posts. But first, do no harm to myself and others. And remember this is about being and doing.
