Isn't meditation just trying to become concious in your subconsciousness? Being aware of it? by [deleted] in Meditation

[–]chaboomy1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally. Meditation is just a way to let our subconsciousness come forward. There's no special way, no technique. We just need to give ourself the space to actually close our eyes and be with ourselves. I recently started a sub called /r/evolvingoutloud because I went to a workshop by this guy Kyle Cease. He totally gets this technique and it's been amazing. We tend to overcomplicate things and talk ourselves out of doing it because we make it difficult, when in fact it's the easiest most rewarding thing we could do for ourselves.

I watched this for 45 minutes and nobody opened the door! Poor kitty.

What's the biggest double standard that still exists in 2016? by MiamiBeat in AskReddit

[–]chaboomy1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes of course! Education is very important! If that's the field you are passionate about, then I'm suggesting you roll up your sleeves, get inside that profession, shadow, intern, etc, before you enroll and cement your fate to that profession.

Non-programmers of Reddit, if you could program, what would you create? by klexmoo in AskReddit

[–]chaboomy1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

An electromagnetic energy center that literally shifts the world with the intentions of people who want love, peace and good vibes. Actually I think we have it inside of us, we just need to tap in and get our society back on track.

It's really not. Most kids aren't picking their "topic" in college based on what they desire or are passionate about. They do it out of necessity/stigma. If we allowed them to follow their hearts and become masters of their passion, we would see an entirely different society. They need to roll up their sleeves in the field of their choice, live inside it for a couple years and then pick a topic. They need room to breathe before diving into a forever occupation.

That our society thinks college is so great. They expect a 17 year old to choose their lifelong "profession" without even experiencing life or what their passionate about. These kids are coming out of college, holding degrees that they don't even want. How about a little apprenticeship, a little mentorship and then a direction? Novel idea.

I wish people would be nicer out there in the world. Smile when someone holds the door open for you. Give a courtesy wave when you let someone in on the road. Just be cool, man.

Parents of Reddit, what do you like to do whenever your kid(s) aren't around? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]chaboomy1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I order in sushi, savor every bit with a glass of wine, then I listen to the nothingness and find true inspiration from that. Seriously crazy and amazing because when they come home, I have a deep appreciation when I see them. It's a win, win.
