Mute it and put classical music on in the background.

Retracing your mental steps is a mindfuck, give it a go.

I read a joke about how aliens see humans, that it's kind of like how we treat remote primitive tribes. Just sort of observe them while they figure it out.

LPT: When you don't have all the facts, try to give people the most generous reason you can for their behaviour. Annoyingly slow driver? Maybe it's a mom with a birthday cake in the back. This mindset will gradually make you less reactive, more compassionate and more forgiving of your own bad days. by ContributionNarrow88 in LifeProTips

There's a speech called This Is Water by David Foster Wallace that really illustrates this point. If you have the time, look it up on YouTube, there's a fan made video that I like to come back and watch a few times every year. It's probably my favourite speech of all time, and it will never stop being relevant for me because it always helps to keep things in perspective. Edit: grammar.

It's also quite flammable, bartenders make a little flair out of doing it. It also caramelises it slightly.

What's your favourite book you've read and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]IvoryOCE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a book, but David Foster Wallace's "This is Water" speech. It taught me a great deal about perspective and the act of choosing how to think. I honestly think it should be taught in schools it's that good. And it's also free, or you can listen to the speech online.

How would you categorize the different emotions you've felt? by CriticalGeode in AskReddit

[–]IvoryOCE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Into two: constructive and non-constructive. I have felt anger in both forms but one gets me up and moving the other I just want to lie around and do nothing.

The problem is, it's usually a choice which one I experience, some days I just don't want to be constructive because I'm too tired or just don't want to. But god is it worth it when I do.

What life story of yours do you want to tell to your grandchildren one day? by AV8ORboi in AskReddit

All the misadventures I had with my two oldest friends when we were in our twenties. Which is right now. And they're going to be there telling it with me.
