if you play into their tales—instead; who do you become? — you walked a step deeper. but exactly… comprehension is personal… so why not be self absorbed if that’s the only thing that matters.. not in the real world but passing the ultimate yes and no personal test that is expected to claim (going beyond this point unnecessarily breaks it, it really just ends here) self.
why do you think nuances like these don’t impact, equate and add to everything else in your experience? “now” being your only way forward; “i think its a way take to all these nuances that dictate now… and ‘now’ becomes a bit more solid when you are aware of some of the nuances that shape it. we don’t attempt to control, only clarity and predictably in these nuances”
who you choose to trust is based on trust in self; ultimately you must trust solely in self first, to make these choices throughout life.
“i knew it was all going to be like this; all nostalgia when these thoughts meet behind your eyes for the second time; i make sure to savor these moments (as much as i can) with good music.”
i went from memorizing all my passwords to only wanting to remember one.
i think deep inside, the cause of inaction in a person somewhere right now sounds like “i want to do, but i don’t want to be”
mother gave me a business card tip for pristine3d today, “make a business card” her business card idea (even though she saw a totally different image in her mind when she spoke those words to me) stuck to my idea of what i had to put on that card and how harmless can a card be? with a little qr code that takes their attention to exactly what i want them to see, even for a brief moment, if they are curious enough to scan those qr codes and watch this page load, they are willing to see to what i have to sell them. in that second, i thanked mother for reminding me of this concept that already existed but did not come to mind before our conversation. she helped me in that moment more than she probably imagined, a new solution is so rare these days to old forgotten problems,
don’t get lost in the images your mind feeds you, recognize what triggers these images; that is if you can ever keep track, everything keeps coming at you.
one thing i learned and immediately applied to most of my conversations is consciously stopping after you’ve provided a sufficient response, don’t try to squeeze in all the details possible into that one response, let the conversation naturally lead there (a lot of times it won’t and that’s fine) but when it does, you have a clearly laid out response; trying this out in real life after years of trying to fit in as much information into a back and forth, and wondering why it’s almost like a one sided conversation, it made a huge difference, more times than not, the conversation usually went that direction, this ensures whoever i’m speaking to is on the same page as me.
the more time goes by, the fight for personal digital privacy is looking less about privacy from others in your life, and more about companies that sell your data to show you things you might actually want, i understand how this statement (some might have been triggered by now and say it’s an argument, maybe) may seem; both are the end goal but a company that knows everything about me is less likely to hurt me more personally, the wrong person in my life seeing just 1% of that data can possibly cause me more harm; the road towards this sort of privacy is a lonely and very individualistic one; as the other is more robust, even if most people will never care to acknowledge the latter their entire lifetime; they will be influenced by it daily without them sparing a thought.
