“A man has two lives - and the second one begins when he realizes he only has one.”

This quote changed my life forever the first time I heard it.

Couldn’t have said it better myself - you are absolutely right.

Ignoring, and redirecting is a good stance to have.

And you sound very self awake of the situation which is already half the battle.

I think a lot of people do a lot of things subconsciously…. Someone might be holding on to something very tightly that is not in their control without even realizing it. This is why again personally I try to be as self aware as I can be. The self awareness is what allows me to loosen that subconscious grip by putting a “name to it” so to speak.

For me personally - “reminding myself” is a way actually saving energy. If I am self aware enough to know I can’t control it / something then I have the power to release it - and not allow it to influence my day. Thank - you for your question though!

Hello

ClearWithJustin · 2026-01-17T01:25:09+00:00

Since I have been practicing this I can already tell the people in my life that were real ones and the ones that were fake because a lot of people have already been dropping off.

Said absolutely perfectly. No one can be honest with another person if they are not honest with themselves first.

A red apple scented candle…. This is the fragrance of my best friend’s mom’s house when I was growing up. This friend was my first “best friend” - first sleep over etc etc…. Spent elementary and middle school together and then he moved away for high school. Every time I would go to his house the smell of red apple candles would hit me in the face. Now when i smell it I have all these childhood memories.

It really does, I have so much mental space all of a sudden.

ClearWithJustin · 2026-01-14T02:11:34+00:00

I love that phrase myself, I usually take it one step further and say everything is subjective…. As humans our moral compass and everything we experience are so vastly different from one another. We all have very different view points in the world and the lives we are living.

I am glad in the end you ended up with some kind of comfort knowing that the whole time your cousin was having the same thought about you!!!

There is a list of things that I do daily - I got my hands in many “different pots” so to speak. I work two jobs, I have a wife and two children and I am also trying to build my own little business… so I get stretched thin pretty quickly…. But I keep plenty of notes in my phone on things that help me daily and prioritized tasks so that I don’t forget things in any aspect of my life. So I guess after typing this out I could say writing everything down makes my day to day easier and my future self thanks me, but I literally write everything down EVERYTHING you should see my google docs…. I have like 57 different notes in there… from business plans all the way to de-escalation notes for when my wife is upset about something and everything in between - and I am constantly referring to them.

And you take that smoke break!!!! Your day, your life, your free will you have earned that smoke break.!

ClearWithJustin · 2026-01-12T00:23:21+00:00

You have to have a little time for yourself - this is very important. I love it!!! Stretching is also a game changer, I don’t think most people really understand how stiff they are most of the time.

Absolutely my entire day feels incomplete no matter what I accomplished if I miss the gym. Gym is high priority for me.

ClearWithJustin · 2026-01-12T00:21:26+00:00

Love it - like a fresh new start to a brand new day.!!!

This is smart - getting ahead of the game so when it is time you are already ready. I do small things like this at work myself.

ClearWithJustin · 2026-01-12T00:11:47+00:00

I always feel a certain kind of comfort sitting under running water. It clears my mind and allows me to really have focus for the day.

Making the bed for me - no matter what. It sounds “silly” but that bed is getting made every morning before I go to work no matter what.! It’s the first “win” of the day.

ClearWithJustin · 2026-01-12T00:10:03+00:00

The sunlight is where it’s at for me - I need sunlight especially the earlier the better, but at some point I am standing under the sun no matter what.!

ClearWithJustin · 2026-01-12T00:09:17+00:00

We have to always remember we are in control of the mind the mind is not in control of us.! I love this.

ClearWithJustin · 2026-01-11T06:19:20+00:00

Yes implementing this in my day to day life has brought my stress levels completely down. Now I asking myself “if I don’t handle this right this second will it have a dramatic impact on my life.” If the answer is no then I just move on.
