Thank you for this. Because it seems like people put Neville and Joseph Murphy in the exact same category of teaching. I’ve read Power of The Subconscious Mind and going back for a 2nd read. Edit:…

Knowing that there's a physical reason for the confusion and lack of awareness makes it easier to accept. One feels like an outsider; the people around you seem to know how to be with each other. An…

You completely missed the point. You don’t need all the woo to get money, which is important in this world. Get your money first. Then once you have more than enough to last you a life time, you c…

Ok- I dunno how to approach this. My parents did *not* talk about feelings. Still don't-- small town German-Irish silence. I never once witnessed conflict resolution-- just behind the back bottling an…

I think it depends. Sometimes with meds still active it's easier for me to lucid dream. Other times there's no way I'm going anywhere other than watching my thoughts stream by. I've never APd, but I'…

I agree that things can change, but am forever baffled/frustrated by a repeated theme I see in here: men seem to think women have it easier or have some sort of advantage. I assure you, women don’t “k…

Easier said than done. I have no motivation to do anything. She was a big motivation for me in life. I’m going on 13 days NC now, and I have a very very strong urge to reach out. She reached out 3 tim…

Or don't. If you reach out and they shoot you down, then moving on gets easier. While you're pretending not to care, you're still holding out hope and hope stops you from moving on. Leave it all on t…

>men seem to think women have it easier or have some sort of advantage They do.

Fortunately I've taken my separation (and inevitable divorce) as an opportunity to quit drinking and make healthy lifestyle choices. I've been working really hard to practice mindfulness and radical …

Well I’m glad to see that it’s a lot easier than you thought it was going to be and that it will be easier than you expected to have to go through all the stuff that I was supposed to be working on to…

I am 5 months out from my divorce, and I can only handle it day by day. I try to give myself the same grace I would give others. Some days are easier than others. I try to stick to a routine. Oddly, e…

The average woman has a significantly easier time finding new relationships than the average man. It's not nice to admit it, but it's the clear and obvious explanation of why men who do the dumping of…

I agree with most here, daydreaming (wishful thinking) gives you nice emotions but emotions alone gives you most often nothing in reality. But it's not necessary to have a first person view in your sc…

That’s nice to know that it works for you also in third person point of view. :) I was trying to say with it, that it’s easier to make sure to not merely think of it, but get the feeling of it being t…

It stopped being about proving, tbh. They probably lost years of their lives doing things incorrectly and it’s easier to say they were duped instead of saying they made wrong choices on their own.

After all is said and done. My one true key belief is that YOUR BELIEFS SHAPE YOUR REALITY. Good or bad. Right or wrong. How you feel about everything in your life is what receive from it. It’s th…

Even if you're doing the right steps and apply it the right way, and doing that daily, it will take more time if you're new and working on a tough first mission. The lion states 4 months. If you haven…

I’m sorry to hear you had an experience like that. I do think my current relationship is a little more consistent than what you’ve described. We see each other usually at least once a week, more if we…

I think taking personal time can come from different motivations. Securely attached people love their own time too, especially if they’re more introverted and have hobbies that require undivided atten…

I think it really depends on the partner and how willing they are to communicate. In my last relationship I was avoidant leaning secure and my partner was preoccupied. There were certain things I thou…

You think you don't owe your partner, someone who's entered into a loving partnership with you, anything? That you can just walk away from that righteously, whenever? Sounds like a paltry, wispy comm…

All this to say, anxious, avoidant, something in between. Neither style will be a great partner. They will be selfish to ease their insecurities cause they don’t have proper coping skills. Villainizi…

Love the question!! You don’t need a relationship to grow, that’s the beauty of it (you can but it will be slower, depending on what kind of partner you end up with) You could try to explore being mo…

To me, you sound self-aware enough to understand that your fears override your emotions. What an amazing position to be in. Does it make it easier? Probably not. But self awareness and accountability…

Attachment styles are not the sole factors for attraction we create. But cutting off people we have known for a long time - especially family members, to which we are bound to biologically - is a sig…

You are correct. Your perception of love is warped. And thus it can be really hard finding it without accidentally finding yourself in shit relationships. As many have commented, avoidants typically …

Sorry for what you’re going through, but I’ll be brutally honest. As a bad boy, I believe he bullshitted you to get what he wanted, then disappeared. After physical interactions, people tend to either…

My guess is that he has hooked up with someone, or maybe gone back to an ex, and he doesn’t know how to tell you. Since you don’t know each other very well and have barely spent time together in perso…

i’m an FA too and i will gladly and happily hate someone i cared about a week ago. it’s not some sudden thing, i just get a sort of “cumulative ick” feeling, and eventually there’s a straw that breaks…

That would make it easier for me because I know she wants to hear from me the reassurance is nice.

Great comment. Ever since I started doing that therapy embodying new I ams has been so much easier

I completely relate it’s really tough, but also if you’re only getting negative feelings from it it’s not going to help that loneliness - it will get easier I promise

By ‘phantom ex,’ I mean that the most recent crush is serving as an idealized image of someone they can never have, which makes it easier to compare others to this unrealistic standard. It’s common in…

Maybe it’s worthwhile just fixing the app now to get it in a better working state with what you have, before moving onto a new cloud provider? If the code can’t handle it in your current provider, c…

Increase your php-fpm worker pool. There's a dark art to finding just the right number, since fpm shares memory a lot. Look online to find out how to set that number. Then monitor performance and if y…

The other setup I've seen used is a two layer system, the first layer is something like the LGTM stack, and from there certain key metrics or aggregates are pushed to something like NewRelic or DataDo…

Yes, 4tb of metrics Prometheus can eat like peanuts, if you need fault tolerance,better look into Thanos or Mimir, vanilla Prometheus can handle it too, but it will be more manual work. Dashboards can…

It's certainly an interesting problem... Not knowing anything really about how interpreters operate and just spit balling, would it be helpful to provide the interpreters with a quick glossary of anti…

Yep, Redshift observability is one of those things that should be easier, but ends up buried in system tables and tribal knowledge. Some practical tips that might help: 1. Build a lightweight monito…

I second OpenTofu over terraform, but do you actually need it? The idea of "if I use terraform I can swap cloud" is probably a YAGNI, and even if you use terraform / OpenTofu, you'll need to re-write…

Stay strong and learn. It doesn’t get any easier.

While terraform/opentofu isn't a crazy difficult skill to learn, I'd still prefer tools that are more generalised than just MS, mainly because: * it's easier to find people that have that skill * it'…

I’ve been deep into building marketing systems lately, and one thing that really helped me was creating a set of AI prompts to make launch planning, SEO prep, digital marketing , dev and code way too …

No we don't. I've started to use AI to write follow-ups for past due AR. But it's of limited value over a standard template email. We would love an AI better embedded in ERP so that we can pull data…
