What is something you’ve learned about life that changed your life?

[Anonymous]

It seems so obvious and when you say it to yourself it’s sounds obvious but I’d actually like to talk about two things.


First is balance finding a healthy balance in your life is actually genuinely life changing even when it comes to your minds set.

And second is believing in yourself, I’ve always told myself i believe in in myself but it is truly shocking when you actually genuinely believe in yourself you can accomplish something, how the world changes around you to make the goal you’ve set out for yourself a reality I don't know what it is but the moment i adopted that mindset monastery how absurd the goal things began to change.

So believe in yourself and but also find balance within yourself and the world around will shape itself around you to suit your new reality.

Their has been a couple of things actually but number thing is when an ex of mine and I were fighting and she called me a narcissist and I said im not but in my head I was like wtf is a narcissist and anyway I looked it up later and was like wow this just described her perfectly, now I know why I've been trying to fix something that couldn't be fixed for years, I knew why I would ask myself often "where did the women I loved go because this bitch has been replaced somehow or if I could just get her to this or that and yeah that was all a giant fucking waste of time.
Its an absolutely fucked up deal to find out you married someone that doesn't actually exist an in they are acts and they studied you and know exactly how to love bomb you and manipulate the shit out of people that dont know any better, I was a her puppet and clueless about it.
These fucking people are sick twisted fuckin people and I had no clue that these people existed so by the time I learned I was a puppet that she controlled weather I was happy or mad or sad, I was addicted In a way and after almost becoming obsessed with the research of narcissism and phsycopathy BPD and such that I finally accepted it and came to the realization that staying with here =more misery and I could go on and on with some crazy shit but I dont really wanna waste any more time thinking about her.
20 years with a monster in disguise, I remember a few months before I left here she couldn't answer any of my questions like whats was my favorite food? What is my favorite color? whats my favorite movie? What's my favorite band? And thats crazy because i could tell ya hers was spaghetti, pink, Harry Potter, and I know what she said her favorite band was but I dont believe that at all and I honestly think will Smith might have been her favorite musician at one point because she knew all thw words to every will Smith song which sucked pretty bad amd anyway I could tell you her favorite everything... she also lied a bout shit to people everybody really but told some I beat her up and i know I've wanted to but never even touched her out of anger because I loved her to much and all together it was all a life changing experience that has fucked my shit all around for years and actually its been 2 years and im still feeling the effects of her and yeah I could go on about it but im done.

Coming out as bigender and wearing dresses.

Ever since I came out of the closet, I've been happier my attitude has changed and not as angry as I used to be. Even my roommates have noticed the changes in me. And I am happier. I'm pretty sure work hasn't even notice. But the customers while work have.

If someone is acting shady the best thing you can do is ignore them and start conversation with someone close to them. They will suck up to you after a day

That peace is the real luxury.

The moment I stopped chasing what wasn’t meant for me, life started giving me what truly was.

That peace is louder than attention,
and solitude is richer than fake company.

I learned that not everything lost is a loss, some things leave to make space for alignment.

And when you stop chasing validation, you finally meet yourself, the version of you that was always enough.

We can all endure and push through so much more than we think we can. When your brain screams at you to stop, that's when you start.

Your threshold for pain, discomfort, and suffering, it is not fixed. It's a muscle and it needs to be trained. Doing so has an inverse effect in that the higher your tolerance to discomfort, the more often you can find pleasure.

I learned that I don't need everyone to like me. That includes family. In fact, I'm better off with a small circle of carefully curated friends. And I make no apologies for that.

There will always be haters in every work environment. Stay, push forward and shine a light on them as they are screwing other people as well and when you do that, they fail as many people turn on them.

The only justice in the world is the kind that you make for yourself.

Not everyone you lose is a loss. Some people are just lessons in disguise.

That in the long run, you are truly all by yourself. People come and go, but you are the only constant.

What other people think about you is none of your business.
