Warning Label - Verethragna - Mar 8, 2021
If people were born with warning labels stamped on them, what would yours say today?
Mine would probably say talks too much, annoyingly positive, and a bleeding heart lol. What would yours say?

"Cares way too much about the wrong types of things."

I hear that. Does it still affect you as bad or have you found a coping mechanism?

You just gotta remind yourself of what is really important. Sometimes I catch myself worrying about things that ultimately will not affect my end goals but instead I prioritize them because in the moment they seem so important.
When that happens, you need to take a step back and analyze the whole situation again top to bottom, whole picture 100%. By that I mean, where do you want to be 10 years from now? 15? 20?

100%! I'm glad you were able to find a system that works for you! That's how I handle it as well. Although that works, do you ever feel like it's too much and you might explode from it all? Recently I've been doing more journaling and meditation and I've found that it helps with those overwhelming feelings sometimes. It could just be me tho. I'm a strange bird lol.

"lazy, annoying and doesn't stay in contact with others"
It's hard for me to stay in touch with people I don't meet on a daily basis (or happen to catch online)

I'm the worst about staying in contact with people also. I definitely understand life gets in the way, and we all can be lazy sometimes! Actually, I was reading a study a while ago saying that the mind will procrastinate at times to shield itself from certain things. So don't be too hard on yourself. Our brains need a break every once and a while 😁

I need to read that study to see how to make it stop lol
I sometimes procrastinate too much but I'm working on it

🤣 Me too. In fact, I'm procrastinating as we speak lol. One thing I find that helps is I set little alarms throughout the day to spur me into getting some work done. Maybe one day I'll think of something more effective lol

Tried that, I just turned it off and did nothing about it lol
I tried downloading an app called Habitca which turns chores and your normal To Do list into a game where you get EXP n such, it's pretty fun and helps in a way
