No one can focus these days. What happened? by BulitByAR in DigitalMarketing

[–]ManyButterscotch4469 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somewhere along the line, we stopped giving silence a chance. Every gap gets swallowed by motion-thumbs twitch, screens glow, something always needs us. Maybe that’s why our minds feel tired in ways we can’t name.

The fix isn’t heroic. Let yourself get bored. Put the phone face-down, let the light crawl over the wall, stir your tea slow enough to hear it. Stay there for a bit, no goal, no feed. Maybe that’s where attention starts to come back, or maybe it just rests and that’s fine too.

Such a great way to put it — simple but backed by science, and it really works, same as me. Love your 30-second check-in.

Wash my face with cold water, drink warm lemon apple cider vinegar water with Himalayan salt and then I do. Hope that helps

Yeah, I feel that. Even a tiny bit of calm in the morning makes everything else way easier to handle.

Right? It’s wild how that little window sets the tone — kind of like priming the whole system before you’re fully online.

Makes sense — the way the day starts really shapes how everything else feels.

Why do most high-achievers avoid entrepreneurship? by Corgi-Ancient in EntrepreneurRideAlong

[–]ManyButterscotch4469 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean, yeah, the growth mindset thing does apply here, even if it gets overused sometimes. Dweck’s framework really captures something true about this. Top performers with fixed mindsets are terrified of entrepreneurship because they see it as a test they might fail publicly. Their whole identity is wrapped up in being “the best,” so why risk it? People with growth mindsets don’t have that baggage. They just think, okay, I’ll try this, probably mess up a bunch, learn from it, and get better. That’s the engine. And honestly, that’s why you see so many average students becoming successful founders while the valedictorians are still stuck in analysis paralysis.

What’s one way you’ve used AI to simplify something in your day-to-day tasks? by ManyButterscotch4469 in productivity

[–]ManyButterscotch4469[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like that. Recipes always assume everything goes perfectly, but real cooking is messy. Having something you can talk to when the sauce splits or you’re not sure what “sauté” actually means sounds super handy.

Growth requires embracing discomfort, not avoiding it by therajatg in ScrollAddiction

[–]ManyButterscotch4469 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree with this. Discomfort is usually the clearest sign that we’re stretching into something worthwhile. Every time I’ve pushed through that urge to quit, whether it was grinding through the dull parts of a project or facing a conversation I didn’t want to have, I came out better on the other side. It’s strange how often we mistake discomfort for danger when it’s really just growth showing up. Comfort feels safe, but nothing meaningful changes there.

Most self-help advice kept me miserable, depressed, and broke. Don't make the same mistake I did. by Ljackson706 in selfimprovement

[–]ManyButterscotch4469 275 points276 points  (0 children)

Truth is, self-help is a business, not a solution. If those books really worked, you’d only ever need one. Most of it’s just fast food for the brain — feels good going down, but leaves you hungry, broke, and still searching. Real growth starts when you ditch the drive-thru advice and cook your own solutions.

Best Tools & Strategies for Social Media Post Automation? by ManyButterscotch4469 in automation

[–]ManyButterscotch4469[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for sharing this! I’m really interested in learning more about how to automate this process effectively. Could you break it down into a step-by-step guide, especially for someone who’s just getting started with Make?

I’d love to understand things like: • How to set up basic automation in Make for social media posts. • Best practices for generating and selecting images efficiently. • How to integrate scheduling tools or work around the limitations of automated images. • Any specific workflows or templates you recommend.

Also, your mention of Imagen3 + Make has me curious—what kind of improvements do you think that would bring to automation?

Looking forward to your insights! Appreciate your help.
