lowkey one of the biggest things that helped me escape depression was to stop thinking as much. i really resonate with allen watts "A person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts. So he loses touch with reality, and lives in a world of illusions"

2000’s movies have this vibe I don’t think we’ll ever be able to recreate
Like Mike (2002) was really one of them early 2000s classics...the type of movie you watched over and over and never got tired of. Just pure nostalgia fr🏀

Everyone is always rooting for you. Your parents want you to be a great son. Wife wants you to be a great husband. Your boss wants you to be a slam dunk hire. Every first date you’ve ever been on they’ve been rooting for you to get laid. Every time you started to tell a joke people hoped it would have a hilarious punch line. Your proximity to anyone is a reflection of themself, meaning the deck is never stacked against you, and your failures are completely your own
Readers added context they thought people might want to know

Highly recommend being friends with ambitious people. Their drive pushes you to work hard for yourself. They also inspire you to do better, be better. Their good traits rub off on you. You start to want better for yourself and you grow.

delete tiktok. watch old movies. embrace boredom. quit doomscrolling. eat without stimulation. hang out in book shops. slow your mornings down. walk without headphones. start believing in yourself. create phone boundaries. stare out the window. visualize your future. learn new skills. seek discomfort. experience life.

the weird thing about reading so much as a child and gaining a huge vocabulary from that is I can't define a lot of words i use, i just…know that they would fit correctly in a specific sentence. does anyone else experience that 😭?
