just focus on what feels good. if it doesn't feel good, then don't put your attention there unless you're being paid to or some major consequence would ensue if you don't.

if your thoughts keep going there regardless, imagine a big red stop sign then gently guide them back to your breath. will have to over and over probably bc you're human. this is meditation.

Not a masochist, lol

But I’ve found growth in going through pain in certain situations

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Is discomfort pain?

paulo 2y ago

It’s a type of pain, isn’t it?

Petr 2y ago

Discomfort is kind of needed for growth then it means pain is needed for growth then if you want to grow you are a masochist 🤣

why does that have to be a foundational truth 😭 in my notes case, I'm definitely not advocating for no pain --it does serve a purpose. im more referring to the lil things that don't really matter but continue to demand bandwidth bc our mind wont let it go. the small stuff.

your roommate left a dirty dish in the sink again? focus on the rent they pay 😂 kinda joking, kinda not. what we choose to focus on creates how we interpret reality. the mind is malleable so train it.

I don’t consider it a foundational truth. In fact, I 100% agree with what you just wrote 😅

I do avoid past pains, once I’ve seen them through. Not completely dumb here 🤣🤣🤣

there's that whole suffering is inevitable pain is optional thing. but in times of deep pain, I have experienced growth. im not sure it's optional with the mind the way it is.

I do not think I would be so much into Bitcoin if I did not like pain in some shape of form

Not exactly pleasant all the time, don’t you think?

Bohemia 2y ago
