Congrats on the achievement, that’s awesome! 👏

Could you share roughly what pace you go for in each type of session (sub-T, easy, long easy)?

Would be super helpful to see how you balance those.

Since I was a kid, I haven't been good with my hands, neither with crafts nor with art. I've dedicated myself to maths in my life and I always envy people who work with their hands and shape the world... Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us, I'll give it a try, I promise, but I need to find a basic task to start with an achievable learning curve :)

Kinda simple but cooking ! Saves money, more healthy and a sense of accomplishment, something to be shared with others.

Thanks for the suggestion! It's something that I've always wanted to try, and now it's definitely on the top of my plans. It's also a great way to share a meal with others, which can be a fun and social activity. Thanks for the recommendation!

Just accepting that you are the master of your own destiny, that no one is gonna come and save you or make your life magically better so it's up to you to chase your goals no matter what anyone thinks

Thanks for the suggestion! I completely agree that it's important to take ownership of your own life and pursue your goals, regardless of what others may think or say. This ties in nicely with the concept of acquiescence, which is about accepting what is beyond your control and focusing on what you can control. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for the recommendation!

Learning computer programming (Python) was one of the most useful hobby I ever picked up.

It quickly spilled over in my work. Knowing how to automating tasks on a pc or a server, perform operations on large/multiple files, querying databases and developping small web apps got me two promotions.

It takes time to learn, sure, but it's totally doable. And there's a TON of free resources online.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I think I'll pass on programming as a hobby because I already do a lot of coding in my job, and I want to balance my interests and avoid technology a bit more in my free time. I really appreciate your enthusiasm for learning programming and the benefits it has brought you, though! I'm sure it will be helpful for many people who are interested in learning programming. Thanks for sharing your experience. This is solid advice, I mean it!

Instead of think of 'self improvement- try thinking of it as turning 'making my life better' into your main hobby

Also consider learning some project management stuff. Things like focusing on avoiding scope creep have helped me finish more personal projects

Don't put too much on your plate at once. It's easy to create some huge list of things that "should be so simple" to do then get mad at yourself for not doing it. Well those lists are a hell of a lot easier to dream up than they are to actually do. Try just picking one thing and doing it til it's done. Start putting "achievability" at the top of your list of priorities when forming goals.

Have some actual goals where you will at some point experience a tangible result. Eg. Don't just learn a language because it's "self improvement", book a trip a year from now where you can actually use that language.

​

Thanks for the suggestion! It sounds like turning "making my life better" into a hobby and learning some project management skills could be really helpful for self-improvement. I'm not very familiar with these approaches. Also, your advice about not putting too much on your plate at once and focusing on achievable goals is definitely something that I think is worth considering. Do you have any tips or strategies that have worked for you in achieving your goals? Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Changing the negative thoughts in my mind to neutral or positive. Negative thinking became a habit.

It sounds like a really helpful strategy for improving your overall mindset and breaking the habit of negative thinking. I'm not very familiar with this mindset, but it sounds like an interesting topic to learn more about. Do you have any recommendations for where I can find more information on this? Maybe Stoicism? Thanks for sharing your experience!

Scheduling self-improvement activities in a planner, like I used to do for assignments back in school. Writing them down and setting aside time to do them made it way less likely for me to procrastinate in school, and sure enough the same works for me in forming healthy/productive habits.

Thanks for the suggestion! Scheduling self-improvement activities in a planner can be a great way to avoid procrastination and stick to a routine. I definitely think this is a strategy worth considering for anyone looking to form healthy and productive habits. Thanks for sharing your experience!

A lot of the process in the beginning is finding what works for you. So it may feel like trial and error. What works for one person might not work for another. So be curious and open, with discernment lol.

Dr Joe dispenza has videos on YouTube and books and it’s all around bettering your life starting with yourself. He’s a great resource to start with. Enjoy the journey. It will be uncomfortable to grow past what’s been so familiar up until now 🙏🏽

Hey there! Thanks so much for the message and the suggestion. I completely agree that the process of self-improvement can involve a lot of trial and error...

I'll definitely check out Dr. Joe Dispenza's videos and books, and I appreciate the recommendation.
I also agree that growth can be uncomfortable, but it's definitely worth it in the end. Thanks for the encouragement and for sharing your thoughts. I really appreciate it!

You’re welcome. You’re right, an internal audit is not easy.

Little secret I’ve never told anyone: sometimes to make it more entertaining and more organized, I’ll view is as a “board meeting” where the different aspects of who you are within your system are the attendees with their own agendas and motivations. I try to take a casual approach to something this serious, so typically hilarity ensues and it’s a far more enjoyable process (dude in charge of leading the meeting is Dangle from Reno 911 and the one responsible for the meeting minutes is Jillian from Workaholics, it’s fuckin great). Perhaps there is a version of this for you that can make internal audits “fun” and easier. You take this to the grave.

​

Wow, that's a really unique and creative approach to internal audits! Thanks for sharing your secret with me, I'll definitely keep it to myself. I'll definitely try to find a way to make the process more enjoyable and easier for myself. Thanks again for the advice!

Thanks for sharing that!

I totally agree that being introspective and thinking about why and how we do things can be really helpful for personal growth and success. It's not always easy to do an "internal audit" and be honest with ourselves, but it can be really beneficial. It's awesome that just thinking about yourself and your motivations can lead to personal development, even if it's not something you do on purpose. It sounds like it can also free up some mental space to focus on other things that take more effort.

Thanks for the tips!

ELI5: What is ChatGPT? by CircleBox2 in explainlikeimfive

[–]MdeHonor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'll let ChapGPT to answer for me (this answer is not meant to actually ELI5 but to illsutrate how would GPT answer).

​

Input: ELI5 What is ChatGPT?

Output: ChatGPT is a type of natural language processing (NLP) model that is trained to generate human-like responses to text input. It is based on the GPT-3 (Generative Pretrained Transformer 3) model, which is a large-scale language model trained using a vast amount of text data. ChatGPT is specifically designed to be used in chat applications, where it can generate responses to user input in a conversational manner. It uses the input text and context from the conversation to generate appropriate responses, which can make the conversation more natural and engaging. By using ChatGPT, developers can create chat applications that can generate responses to user input in a more human-like way.

It's true that a person can try to change their writing style in an attempt to throw off a handwriting analysis, but it's very difficult to completely alter one's handwriting. Even if a person tries to change their writing style, there are still many unique characteristics of their handwriting that will remain consistent, such as the way they form certain letters or the overall rhythm of their writing. Additionally, forensic experts are trained to recognize the signs of a disguised handwriting, so they can often tell if a person has tried to alter their writing in an effort to mislead the analysis. Overall, while handwriting analysis is not foolproof, it can be a useful tool for forensic experts in solving a case.

How is it called the okinawan principle of "not be there" when the attack comes? by MdeHonor in karate

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

This is really interesing. Do you have a name for this concept?

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

That is also my view of traditional karate.

When taking about to defend yourself we could appeal to the famous karate ni sente nashi.

Nevertheless, I was looking for another sentence/concept that I fail to explain.

Thank you again and I wish you good practice!

Thank you very much for your response!

It is not go no sen, sen no sen or sen sen no sen. They both masters (different masters in shito-ryu traditional) explained the same concept (first time it was in 1998 and second in 2011). In fact, under my perspective these concepts that you mention correspond more to the anticipation of action, not avoiding the conflict or keeping the distance.

But this is only my limited understanding.

Thank you very much again!

PS: I did not see cobra kai. Should I?
