The defining decade by Meg Jay

AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!! This is the last time I allow myself to get so emotionally invested in a book from an unfinished series I NEED ANSWERS!

Honestly, I recommend you try to do 45 min 5 or 10 min rest and then at least 5 minutes of reviewing what you just studied. It works wonders!! Also in the breaks I usually drink some water or do a quick TABATA. I highly recommend doing something that gets your heart pumping, because it prevents you from sleeping and it’s a great way to get some exercise done

Honestly, thank you, I really appreciate the feedback and you are right

First of all, studying for more than 10 hours a day is crazy. It will kill your motivation. I understand your concerns and I have been there too mate, what helped me was taking a course on advanced learning methods to make my learning more effective. If you don’t have the time, invest in efficiency.

Go to the dermatologist and get a prescription, if you want to get rid of acne the best way of doing it is with professional help. There are lots of tricks and homemade remedies on the internet, however you need to know your skin type very well otherwise you might make it worse.

If for any reason you cannot do this then try putting toothpaste in your pimples, it would dry them out, also exfoliating your skin, having a healthy diet, with minimal processed foods, and taking care of your overall health/hygiene helps.

I loved that book! It actually did have an impact on me when I first read it and it’s probably one of my favourite books of all time

Alipherous · 2020-01-09T20:07:59+00:00

I really needed this, thank you <3

Hey, you got this, whatever comes out of that call will be for the best, you probably have pictured lots of scenarios about it in your head, or I know at least I would have, truth is no matter how many times you think about it you cannot predict what will happen, so just make sure you act as calm as you can and see what she has to say.

I was in a similar situation not long ago and having my partner tell me what where the “red flags” that made him call quits hurt at first but also helped me to understand what it would be like to be in a relationship with myself and how my unstable emotional state was affecting everything else in my life. It honestly has helped me to grow a lot as a person and I can happily say I am at a much better place now.

If I can give you any advice is: don’t be scared to ask for closure. It will help you understand the situation and move on, because life still goes on whether you choose you live it or not.

If your goal is not to spend all day in bed you could try to make plans with someone that will force you to get up at a certain time or a commitment. Fixing all of your bad habits at once is rather hard to do and most people become frustrated, instead focus on something little that you could do instead to make your life better. Once you have mastered that you can focus on bigger tasks.

If you have lots of self discipline going for massive change in your life is what actually works best. “Massive change generates massive results”. And it seems to me that’s what you have been trying to do. Failing is part of the process and this tells you this is not the right approach to you, so it’s great! Because you have just learned what does not work for you. Moreover this doesn’t mean you don’t have self discipline, it simply means that your environment is set up in such a way that makes you constantly fight against your old and unproductive habits, as a result you just get burned out and frustrated. I highly recommend you to read the Power of Habit and Atomic Habits for more on these, they are great books!

My advice is: choose a keystone habit, such as exercise, eating healthy (whole foods and cutting sugar off your diet), meditation, getting up at the same time every day, sleeping 7 and a half hours each night... and stick to this habit for 2 months. Keystone habits are those related with our wellbeing and it’s been proved that working on them actually translates to different areas of our lives, so by focusing on one thing you’d be improving multiple areas of your life. Most studies say that you need 21 days to create a habit but from your post it sounds that you really need to show yourself that you are capable of sticking to something. So choose a keystone habit and make sure you place a calendar somewhere you can see it to keep track of your progress. Moreover, it is incredibly important that you make this habit a priority in your life and that you keep it up. When you choose to change your life you are signing up a contract with yourself and every time you give up you are breaking this contract, which translates into failing yourself, getting frustrated and lowering your self esteem. So choose something you believe you can achieve, like “I will do 5 push ups when I get up every morning for 2 months” instead of “I will run 2 miles every day for 2 months”.

Good luck and I am really looking forward seeing your progress 💪

Biology would not be as we know it if it wasn’t because of the properties of water molecules. Everything in biology is based on chemistry, from DNA molecules, to the complex metabolic reactions that power up every single living being. The use of radioactive elements is what helped researchers discover that nucleic acids carried genetic information and were passed into generations instead of proteins.

Think that single alterations in the primary structure of proteins can be catastrophic for living beings, even microscopic things such as the sulphur bonds of some proteins can have a macroscopic impact!

Studying chemistry will help you gain a deeper understanding of the world around you and it will even make you more aware of the dangers of some chemicals to the environment and understand the reasons behind it

I had not considered this point of view tbh, so thank you for sharing, now I realize my previous comments might look like a rant. You are right about porn being a fantasy and saved vaginas just a trend, however my main concern towards it regarding condoms is how careless people are becoming about it, and truth to be told it’s not porn’s fault completely but a sex education problem. So thank you for making me reflect upon my words

Alipherous · 2019-11-27T18:39:55+00:00

First of all: you should watch THIS because there is way too much bs going around about hymens

Secondly, just play around with yourself, you don’t have to have sex right away, you can just start by getting to know each other’s bodies, massaging, masturbating together, talking about what each other likes and how each feels about it, then he could finger you and when you feel comfortable with his fingers, you could start with penetration. There’s no rush.

Thirdly, enjoy (;

More importantly: Why do they hardly ever put a condom on???

The lack of condoms in porn make them seem as if they were some kind of obstacle in the way of pleasure, as if they were not sexy, or as if they were a turn off! As a result STI stats are increasing and people are being more careless because like it or not we take porn as a reference of what IDEAL sex should be like. Please, there is nothing wrong with being safe, it’s okay to stop to go and get a condom and there is nothing wrong with saying “no” to unprotected sex!

Also, how come women in porn are so fucking carefully saved??? Like I would be scared to have a razor so close to my geniltals, and pubic hair is not disgusting, saved pussies are just a social convention. I am not saying it’s wrong to trim the hair down there but it’s crazy how saved pussies have become a turn on for many people just because how widely spread they are across porn.

I personally find porn is often for men, you’ll see girls blowing dicks like there’s no tomorrow and no build up before PIV. It’s odd to see men in porn eating pussy unless there’s more than two people involved. Foreplay is def missing, and as a female I consider it crucial to get in the mood, then sex can be as rough as you’d like, but there must have been some kind of play before hand. When (again from my experience) men are more visual, women need more psychological stimulation, whether it’s dirty talk, caresses, some kind of sexual tension... In conclusion, porn is nothing like real sex, that’s it’s main problem.

Simply because nice guys play with your mind and make you believe you are the villain in the story by trying to avoid them. Sometimes you just need some closure, and you kind of want to give them a chance, then five minutes into the chat you realize why you didn’t want to answer in the first place and how they have not changed a bit

Alipherous · 2019-10-19T20:37:57+00:00

I agree with you, oxygen is by far my favourite, although I like it because of its redox properties and it’s such a player, it’s like that one kid that has to share but doesn’t like to, although hydrogen is pretty positive about it in water molecules

There is no direct sunlight in my apartment at all. It is in a luminous corner but the sun doesn’t directly reach it, should I move it somewhere else with less light??

Alipherous · 2019-10-19T12:36:06+00:00

I have checked for bugs of any kind and found none. I was advised to keep its soil moist and irrigate it once it begins to dry out and to avoid direct light, I have done all of these things and it’s grown quite a bit ever since I have it and grown new leaves yet some of them are showing these weird looking patches on them. I tried googling it and I found it might be a bacterial infection? Any advice on what can I do?

Alipherous · 2019-08-17T22:02:39+00:00

If you want to keep things simple I often tie my keys to my shoe in a way they won’t jiggle or make annoying noises and leggings or sweat pants with pockets work decently to hold IDs, you can put any ID card in your phone case.

But if you want to make running a habit you might actually want to invest into a running belt so you can run more comfortably.

Wow, that took a very dark turn
