Visit Auschwitz and imagine yourself as an concentration camp guard. Return home and start reading some of JBP's book suggestions
Owen Nguyen
Try to think of how to slay the monster directly in front of you, not the dragon guarding the castle, but the monster right ahead of you in the forest. You need to slay that monster, slay the next monster, you need to bravely venture forth, until you can slay the dragon and rescue the princess.
Then you get to go on your next adventure.

Who here has been trying to use more faith to sort themselves out?
I wouldn't necessarily say it's a god specifically, but even as a complete fedora, or I guess former fedora now, I feel when I psychologically just put faith in something higher than myself, it can just give you the extra push you need to confront your dragons.
Ever since I learned more about subjective experience I feel I don't need to rationalize everything. I just need to put faith and hope in a greater good, and help that faith inspire me to do good things.
I feel learning that everything I thought I believed rationally, I believed on faith in at least one sense, makes it easier for me to just have faith. It's easier to faithfully follow a path that makes my life better, and other peoples lives better, even if I can't prove its rational, even if I can't prove things will all work out.
I feel like it lets me let go of my ego, my ego that helps cause my fear of failure, and focus on what I most deeply believe is good and righteous instead...

You clearly know nothing if you're a neet and think "you've seen a lot" try reading some Hegel or Kant and see how little you actually know.
Just a c0llection of useful advice I've found over the years, and advice I've written for myself.
Problem is, I don't know what the bigger picture I'm aiming at is, or what it's all for :S

One of the things I've picked up from Peterson, is that you shouldn't believe that you aren't oppressed. You are oppressed. You have real problems with impulse control. It's unfair, you can't do anything about it.
You still have to fight through it anyways. You still have to push for what will make you happy and satisfied.
I'm ADHD myself and have found what's helpful is redirecting those impulses into a more productive way. If I'm procrastinating and shitposting, I'll look around and see if there is anything to tidy up, and I'll just tidy it up for a few seconds to distract myself. So rather than me having to focus on cleaning when I'm ADHD, I'm cleaning because I'm not focusing, and since I have ADHD, that makes me real fucking clean.

Sup Forums you guys are smart, how do I set more realistic goals for myself? I don't want to reach for low-hanging fruit in life but at the same time I'm very hard on myself when I under-perform, to the point where it further hinders my performance.

I'm so tired, I've been sorting explosively all week. I feel like I've almost sorted too much in too short amount of time, and that the old neural pathways are screaming for me to return to their wicked ways, but I just won't stop plowing ahead, and the possibilities and all my latent thoughts and ideas which I'd suppressed in me, for now years of apathy has now come roaring to surface each wanting some attention
what the fuck do you mean it's not meaningful. what's the meaning of life to you? why do you think doing interesting and fun things along with working and providing for your family isn't a meaningful life? what "bigger story" do you want to be a part of? do you think you're going to change the world?

meeting one goal isnt the end of it, set an achievable goal, even something like brushing your teeth twice a day for a month, and once you master that set a slightly higher goal, and then higher and higher until you've got a job and a car and a gf

Sounds like a path to burnout.
You have to make changes because you love yourself, not because you would be ashamed of yourself if you didn't make those changes.
Try to focus on the changes you've made that make you feel good, focus on the changes that make it so you don't feel like you're in pain regularly, and try and avoid ever changing back from what you changed to, back to your old ways.
Definitely don't make changes because you will hate yourself if you don't make those changes. Make those changes because you love yourself too much to not make those changes. Treat yourself like you would a member of your family.
You aren't slaying your dragons so you can avoid being ashamed of not slaying dragons, because you're afraid your village will make fun of you if you don't slay them, because you're afraid you'll feel like a pussy if you don't slay them. You slay them because you really want the princess at the end, and you deserve that virgin princess, you deserve to live in order instead of the underworld, and you will slay any measly foe in your path.

Ketogenic diet plus picrelated might make things better. You already go to gym and socialise, so you are on a right path.

What does loving yourself even mean? What is the target of the love, and how does that manifest?
Jaxson Roberts
Do you want to find a mate a reproduce? This is a matter of life and death user. Getting fit is DIRE.

I'll try. I've got to start somewhere I suppose.
Ryan Hernandez
than don't do it.. Find what you're aiming for, than plan how you should act in order to achieve that. Don't put the cart in front of the horse.
Do future authoring

Yes I want to reproduce and have many white children. Reproduction is pretty much the only goal one can be certain of in life.

I aim to love myself in the same way I love a member of my family, or love another, mind you I'm high on trait agreeableness, which is a touch unusual for Sup Forums.
There are a lot of people out there, abusing themselves, treating themselves worse than they would treat any other person. Treating themselves in a way they would call neglect if they were describing how one person treated another.
Elijah Kelly
Easy answer is you always start now, or now is always when it's best to start. But really, bits and pieces have been building up over a few months now, I've been in this "place" before, so I know a little bit how to navigate, it's a delicate process upwards. I think for me the worst part of honestly improving yourself, and striving for a clear mind and so forth, is the vulnerability that comes with it, because you have to truly open yourself up to some extent, and let all the unpleasantness in, and then you have to achieve indifference to it. Probably a bad formulation of it, my head is still spinning a little, I'm plucking thoughts out of a carousel here.

for the life of me, i dont see what you guys see in him.
I've watched his lion king videos, and tried to watch his maps of meaning lecture.
where does he actually just spell out what Jung was all about, when does he talk about the archetypes in detail and how to access the collective unconsiousness?
self-authoring has no proven efficacy, you just fell for this one self-help guide out of all the others because the creator doesnt like tranny pronouns
Oliver Young
I think I'm aiming at a transcendent experience. I want to order my life in such a way that I can experience transcendent experiences like love, hope, oneness. That's the point of getting married I suppose. I do wonder sometimes whether or not I should have a family. It seems like the world is so screwed up, and it seems selfish to have kids just because i want to
