Hey Akash how are you doing today?

It seems to me that lately you’ve been too focused on consuming rather than producing. It’s like, if I only I’d learn about this, if I only knew this, If only…, then I can start producing. But do you see the falacy here? I’m pretty certain you see the falacy. In fact, I’d argue that you see it clear as day and yet you choose to follow along with that cause the other thing is downright terifying to you. I mean to go on your own and build it yourself? that scares you man. And you’re doing everything you can to avoid that. But it doesn’t have to be that way. I mean you can still be scared, but you can learn to do things despite of fear. Here are the things I’d suggest to you,

1. divide your problem into smaller chunks. If you don’t know how to divide, take the end goal and walk backwards from there on. For example, if your goal is to run a marathon, think of what needs to happen before you can do? And keep asking yourself that rcursively until you reach the smallest goal that needs to happen

2. eliminate all fluff and focus on the single smallest chunk You don’t need to learn anything new, just focus on the smallest chunk and build/do it.

3. Build momentum by keeping it consistent You need to keep pushing on your smaller chunks everyday. This will build momentum and create chain reactions that’ll keep you energized and motivated

4. Have follow ups with me regularly You need to periodically take a step back, see what worked and what didn’t. This will also help you release all the frustrations and tension you may have built up in your sprint.

5. Breathe through your negative emotions We’ve already talked about this a few times so I’m not going to dwell on that but you know what to do

This these things should help you move forward when you feel distracted. Try them out and let me know how it goes!

Thanks and have a powerful day my friend

Hey Akash, how are you doing today?

Sometimes when you notice negative feelings bubbling up in you, your brain tries to find a coherent narrative to fit those feelings. But feelings are ephemeral by nature, and so your brain will often miss-attribute your feelings to certain things or aspects about you. And that causes you a lot of problems. For example: “negative feelings bubbling up cause something happened”, “it’s because you’re ugly!”, “it’s because you’re unlovable”, etc.

Next time you see negative (or even positive) feelings bubbling up, try not to think, rather just observe those feelings inside your body, breathe them in, feel them, let it flow through in and around you.

Have a productive day my friend

Hey Akash how are you doing?

Sometimes things feel never-ending, and you keep asking yourself when will this end. But I feel like that’s you trying to project the present over to the future. Just because things might seem this way right now doesn’t mean that it’ll be the same tomorrow! I know it sounds impossible to believe when you’re in the now projecting cause you can’t see any other way. But can you take a leap of faith with me on this? Let’s put it this way, could your past self have ever imagined how the present turned out? No right! So, let’s just say your current self isn’t much better at predicting the future. So don’t get anxious about the future, be here now, and let the future take care of itself!

Have a lovely day my friend

Hi Akash how are you doing?

It seems difficult, doesn’t it? There’s this resistance. If you look a bit closer, you’ll notice that resistance is the result of negative emotions bubbling up. And you can’t handle them, so you tend to quickly find a distraction to not feel them. You’ve got to find a way to digest those emotions man. One way is to see through it with sheer intensity. Shine a light through it, embrace the ugly. It’s going to be an extremely difficult process, but it’s going to be worth it!

Have a great day my friend

Hi Akash, how are you doing today?

You’ve everything you need to be happy right here right now. It’s only your beliefs that make you unhappy.

My hope is that one day you will realize it. It might take you your whole lifetime.

Thanks, have a good night
Akash
