This is why this year sucked for the world: human ego.

Maybe in 2017, we'll learn our goddamn lesson.

Leaving tumblr

Too much garbage has taken to following me. Anyone who cares to keep in touch, send me a message (not anon). Tumblr, it's been real.

Hi Sam this week I'll be starting a new job in a professional setting which I've never been in before. I have social anxiety and I can feel the panic rising. Along with meeting several new people I'm nervous because I have a sleep disorder which makes it hard for me to be energized for long. Do you have any tips on how to prepare for my first day or what to do about the adjustment in energy? Thank you

Do the “visualize for success” technique. In your mind picture your first day. Getting dressed. Driving to work. Meeting co-workers. Settling in at your new desk. See it all and see it SUCCESSFUL. Be detailed. Play it out several times until the success pattern has been set in your neural pathways. 

The morning before get up in plenty of time. Shower. Not too much caffeine at first. EAT SOMETHING. A banana is a good energizer. Some cereal. Take a candy bar or two with you. Have one about 10:30 and another at about 3:30. Have a small lunch in between. Drink some coffee or tea as needed.

The absolute best advice to stumble upon returning to Tumblrland. My own first day at my new job (first step into my career at last!) is not too distant, and this will be something I shall put into practice starting now.

Lots of pr0n blogs are following me. I know I've been MIA for a while, but please.

Why changing thought patterns is so hard

(As told to me by my therapist this morning.)

Imagine a baby crying because they have a need.

If someone comes and meets that need, the baby feels better and she learns that she can have an influence on the world around her. A pathway forms in her brain to that effect. But if the baby cries and no one comes, she feels helpless in the world because she starts to learn that she can’t change anything around her. And a pathway forms in her brain about that.

Now many years later she’s grown up and still struggling with a sense of feeling helpless. That’s an example of how struggles can be related to deep beliefs that can have been forming since as early as babyhood. And it’s hard work to change those pathways.

Now imagine a jeep driving every day through a field of long grass. The well-used path is easy to drive along but always gets to the same place. If you want to get to a different place, you have to forge a new path. At first it is very hard going to push through the long grass. If you only do it once, the grass quickly grows back again. But the more often you travel that new path, the easier it becomes. Every time you travel along that path, you are pushing that grass out of the way and making the path a little clearer for the next time, but it takes a lot of repeated travelling over that path while also not taking the other path, before the new path becomes the easiest one to take.

And this is why changing neural pathways takes a long time and a lot of hard work

If it seems like I don’t give a shit, it’s because I don’t give a shit.
