I will never have another lowest point in my life because I'll simply choose to not go there

Always wondered why love is referred to as the most powerful force. As I grow, I feel shaken whenever I'm met with honest love. It forces me to be & do my best for myself and the people who taught me love. Love's a force because it shows you that you're one too.

I'm in awe of people who know themselves like a best friend. It's not easy to meet yourself with that honesty on any scale. Either you're taught to see yourself in all your versions or you're forced to do it. Both ways, you end up meeting yourself no matter how you began

I feel inspired, captured, liberated, held down, pushed, afloat, understood, not seen, loved, hated, respected by my own mind

Turns out I was never lazy. I had a neurological signaling problem. My prefrontal cortex doesn't reliably release the activation signal to start tasks based on importance. It releases it based on interest, urgency, novelty, or emotional stakes.

This is how claude explained it to me: Executive function is the brain's system that handles task initiation, prioritization, time estimation, emotional regulation, working memory, and switching between tasks. Executive dysfunction means that system is unreliable.

I've regularly felt this feeling of being held down while pushing through to move ahead in a stream. It always shows up when I need to start doing something. I didn't know this is called executive dysfunction.

Every context switch costs you approximately 20-30 minutes of cognitive reload time. If you switch 10 times in a day, you've lost 3-5 hours just rebuilding context. This is why you can work all day but produce nothing.

My biggest achievement this year will be finishing an A4 size diary cover to cover by hand

I am struggling to create consistent & flexible systems that get my day's priorities fulfilled. Systems that don't break with environmental changes. I get my basic tasks done but still feel behind in hitting the mark of a productive day.

When I'm angry I've felt that I tend to not touch my journals because I know it'd lead it to dissipate. Somehow I want to feel the frustration so I can sense that something has wronged me. Still struggling to be more of a feeler than intellectualiser of emotions

The gap between thinking of something and doing something is where the progress lies

My most debated concept in my life has been consistency. For very long I thought it's doing something daily without fail. Instead, consistency means a consistent rhythm of showing up not ticking off something daily mindlessly

I feel humbled by my own behaviour so often that it becomes visible to me the difference between my current and dream reality

@0xCharlota @framer Really cool idea!

@sungvisuals I love these

Who are your customers in your life? Who are your working for? Are you doing justice to them? Are you being truthful & honest? What factors have made you successful in generating returns for them?

a mentor I found at age of 19 simply saw me as I am with utmost clarity & that was enough to create the cognitive dissonance that pushed me to see what's going on my pysche that makes it so difficult to face my own true self

Today is an experiment in seeing how much work I can get done just by brute force alone

@radshaan So interested to know how you got interested in maintaining airplanes

Do I have any friends here who can place me in an aircraft hangar? I want to learn everything about maintaining airplanes. Please DM!
