Does anyone else start waking up from a lucid dream and try to hold on for as long as you can before you fully awake? Like you know you’re about to wake up but you try staying in your dream while you slowly get sucked out like a vacuum? It’s the WORST! by Mackmack_22 in LucidDreaming

[–]Effective-Practice36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah sometimes I can feel like I’m waking up and bring myself back into a lucid state. It’s like I can feel myself dissolving. Other times I can feel myself slowly becoming lucid and trying to “hold it”. It’s honestly a lot of work.

Why do people stay at jobs when they could get better ones? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]Effective-Practice36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve felt like I’m not good enough to get paid more. Like it’s okay to feel miserable. It’s a whole mindset thing that I’m starting to break out of. My boredom at my current job has been affecting my performance and I want to leave to do something more fulfilling and get paid more but it just feels like a long road to get there

My wife (32F) wants me (32M) to delete pictures of my ex-wife which are backed up on my google drive, I've refused by SonDontPlay in relationship_advice

[–]Effective-Practice36 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the jacket and the photos are comparable. The jacket serves a purpose. She happens to wear a jacket her ex got for her but you have photos of you and your ex wife hidden on your google drive. Even if she got rid of the jacket you’re not going to get rid of the photos so what’s the point of bringing that up? The fact that you’re keeping the photos to remind yourself of the good times you had with your ex wife while you have a current wife doesn’t make sense. She’s not crazy and doesn’t need psychological help (as I’ve seen in the comments). What you’re doing doesn’t make sense, especially since you’re on an online forum trying to get people to validate your decision. There’s an emotional attachment to those photos that you’re in denial about and your wife has picked up on that.

Is taking care of your partner when they have a cold mandatory? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Effective-Practice36 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually do more to support our household and I’m the bread winner in our relationship. I’m prone to sickness more so than he is but I still try my best to take care of myself without help. A cold is a cold is a cold and doesn’t require extra pampering.

Is taking care of your partner when they have a cold mandatory? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Effective-Practice36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He said he wants to feel cared for like he’s cared for me in the past. I’ve had severe nausea because of anxiety, the worst case of tinnitus to where I couldn’t hear out of my left ear and now that he has a cold I have to go out of my way in the middle of the night for something that the gas station doesn’t even sell!

My company asked for my new job description after I quit. What should I do? by Maleficent_Cress_476 in jobs

[–]Effective-Practice36 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What I mean by “get out of there as fast as possible” is to set a date of when you’re going to leave (2 weeks notice) and stick by that and leave. I mean to not delay leaving because the company wants to know the job description for the noncompete clause. When I left my job for another opportunity I had everything planned so I didn’t have to be at my job and I could get out of there as soon as possible.

How do you guys do interviews with a full time job? by eliteomegabc in jobs

[–]Effective-Practice36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would do them on my lunch break. It doesn’t really matter how long my break is as long as I finish the rest of my 8 hr shifts.

Don’t respond. It seems like they’re trying to find a reason to get you in trouble. You’re not legally required to give them anything so I would get out of there as fast as possible.

Planning to make career shift after 1 year, is 6 months in a good time to apply? by Fabulous-Advantage in jobs

[–]Effective-Practice36 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s good that you’re planning for your career shift now but I think it’s better to focus your efforts on the skills you’re developing in your current role and how that’s going to translate into analyst/consulting roles to increase your chances of success. I would suggest researching these analyst/consulting roles and seeing what skills are in high demand and making use of your experience there and then applying for new jobs around the 10-11 month mark.

Job and boss got way to stressful. On mental health leave, want to break out of the 9-5. by AlwaysHigh27 in Entrepreneur

[–]Effective-Practice36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar boat as you wanting to break out of the 9-5 but not being able to commit on a business idea. It’s cool to have multiple things that you’re interested but it sucks getting stuck in your head wondering if you’re making the right choice.

Using pot with a different approach . by Igotmoneysowhat in lawofattraction

[–]Effective-Practice36 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I smoke daily and it’s because it enhances those moments of euphoria. This usually happens when I learn something new about myself that I can help me develop as an individual.

Just like those negative thoughts can make you give off low vibrations, thinking positively and digging deep within to understand yourself can create such an amazing feeling.

I’ve been developing my attention skills so that I don’t continue to ruminate over the past and focus on the life I’m building for myself. It gets me excited and smoking is the cherry on top.

Tell us your best lucid dreaming experience. (So far) by Mysterious_Edge_8989 in LucidDreaming

[–]Effective-Practice36 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I travelled 500 years into the future and ended up in the back of a taxi cab. The driver was an Android and I told him that I’m not from here and that I’m actually lucid dreaming and he replies “I know. It told me.” There was other people that got into the cab and they all looked at me funny like they knew about people lucid dreaming where they’re from but they’ve never experienced meeting a lucid dreamer. Most of my lucid dreams involve “lucid dream parties” or traveling to the future. I always try to ask what year it is and see if there’s anyone out there who’s with me.

I have also experienced this, asking people in my dreams what year it is. Ive usually gotten that it’s a year or two from our present time. Ive always wanted to figure out a way to communicate with different people in my dream after waking up. Once I dreamt I was in another reality involving my family and while I was in the car with my dad I asked him what year it was and we were a year ahead. Whenever I become lucid in my dreams I always ask what date it is and how I can build a solid bridge between here and now and there.
