My friends here, after having observed some common trends emerging in society today, it's very clear to me that being simple & normal is the best strategy.
Look at the world around us:
These are disparate problems, and just some examples. The surest way to guard yourself is to avoid doing what everyone else is doing.
Be aware. Be disciplined. Exercise, eat well, sleep well, think well. Be simple, as you were a few years ago, or most people were mentally before the coming of the short term dopamine hit economy.
Random musings, thoughts welcome :)
This post really hits home. I feel like we’re living in a world that’s moving at lightning speed, and somewhere along the way, we’ve lost touch with the basics. The constant distractions, the pressure to always be “on” is exhausting.
Being simple and staying true to yourself, as you said, seems like the only way to maintain sanity in this chaos. Sometimes, it feels like we’re so caught up in trends and expectations that we forget to pause and just exist.
I make an effort to be simple and normal. It’s like saying, No, I won’t let the world dictate how I should feel or live. Staying true to yourself, despite everything happening around you, is a constant battle, but it’s also incredibly rewarding.
Thanks for this reminder.
I am glad that it does I feel very strongly about the topic
The third paragraph is exactly it. It's easy to stop being aware, but if you're able to say this to yourself 60% of the times, you're winning.
Chaddest on grapevine for a reason, keep it simple and do what makes you happy. There'd be 100's of people telling you to do 100's of thing but you gotta find your own way and work hard and eventually things will settle down.
Absolutely @eleCtrik I think it's about finding our own way to live a meaningful life. We decide what that is.
I just wish there was a way to make sure we have constant reminders to think this way. Because there are unfortunately periods of discipline and periods of indiscipline and while over long run I move forward, I do wish the pace was faster.
But isn't this the opposite of your username? xP
Hahaha I feel personally this thought process enables me to have the grindset.
I am clear about what I want to get from my life and work. Spending less energy on things that should not bother me, allows me to spend energy on the things that matter. Work, mind, body, relationships.

I agree. I also happened to see this related video few weeks ago
Hey thanks so much for sharing this video with me! Just came back home and watched it. Resonates so so deeply, I'll save it to rewatch every now and then.
Discipline is very much needed in our lives now. We are actually living in a very fast paced world now, so a slow moving life is a need of the hour!
Thanks for this post.
