THE BEST WAY TO FIGHT DEPRESSION

Create Quantum WealthLeave a comment

Become obsessed with changing yourself. We stay depressed because we do not wish to deal with the reality which is dark and cruel. We are afraid to confront it because it makes us uncomfortable.

Remember that the pain of discipline is always less than the pain of regret.

In order to change, you must let go of your present self. You must realize that you’re constantly evolving. So either you are going down the spiral or upward. You’re never out of motion. You’re never at pause. Also, you’re not your past. Either you are better than who you were yesterday or you are worse.

So you have two choices: to change for better or to change for worse. Of course, when you’re depressed, it won’t feel like you have a Choice because you’re so entangled within the downward spiral. But you still, at the most basic level, have that choice to decide to move upward. It will be tough but if you really want it, you can do it.

We also don’t change because everytime we try to change, we are reminded of the past failed attempts at changing which create patterns of disappointment and pain.

Also, the pain of staying the same is always less than the pain of change. And so we choose not to change.

Remember, whether you choose to stay the same or you choose to change, you will suffer pain in both your choices. So you must choose which pain would you rather suffer because life is suffering and we must sacrifice something to gain anything. Decide what you wish to sacrifice.

Good luck!

6 REGRET MINIMIZATION STEPS TO UNF**K YOURSELF

Create Quantum Wealth2 Comments

So here are the things you do and in this very order. I call these the Regret Minimization Steps.

So here are the things you do and in this very order. I call these the Regret Minimization Steps:

Move out of your house. Move away from your family members if they are not high-performance people. If you can’t move out of the house for some reason, move out of the house mentally, which means to stop caring about what your family members do, say or think about you. I mean literally stop giving an f#@k. It’s time to be on your own. Completely self-reliant. So it’s time to figure out what you want from life and get so obsessed with that that you have no time to think about anything else, not even what happens to your family members (I mean it because otherwise, you might have some regrets later). Also, needless to say, but get off social media.
Build High Self Esteem. This is the most important part of all. **You have to hold yourself up in all regards. Always think highly of yourself. Remind yourself of the best things you did and how you can do more such things that will further boost your self-esteem and self-confidence. Keep on building it. Recite daily positive affirmations that pump you up instantly. You can find a lot of YouTube channels that create excellent affirmations. Listen to them every day.
Dream Big. If you have big enough dreams, you will stop caring about petty things like what other people are doing, saying, or thinking about you or anyone else. It’s just not important to know everything. Start dreaming of an ideal life as you want to truly have. At this moment, don’t care about how you will turn your dreams into reality. Just dream for the moment. Visualize all your dreams in 8D colored virtual reality. Again, a lot of YouTube channels are teaching how to create mind movies. Watch them.
Set Goals. Sit down and decide what steps it will take for you to get what you want. Break all your dreams into actionable steps. Reverse engineer everything and see how the most successful people started from zero and made it big and how you can do the same.
Focus. Choose only one dream at first. Focus all your energies into that one dream. We fail because we do too many things and we do all those things poorly. To be really good at something, you need to get into the soul of it. You must immerse yourself completely into it. But remember that you won’t be able to do it if you don’t love it with all your heart. So pointing at the right dream is important, one that takes you to self-actualization, depending upon your strengths and weaknesses. Once you find that vocation that truly fulfills you, you are ready to dive deep into it. If you don’t know it yet, don’t waste time figuring out. Start tasting different things which you like doing already. You’ll know within a few months if it’s what you love or not. Switch when you know.
Take Action. Without this, all the above steps mean nothing. YOU MUST ACT RIGHT NOW! It’s okay if you’re not prepared. Trust me, you’ll never be 100% prepared. Start taking action right now. Don’t worry about the results. Just act on the steps that you figured out while setting goals.

I’m sure if you religiously follow what I told you above, you will be on your way to success. Stop complaining about external events. The only thing we control is our own actions, and I just told you what to do.

HOW TO PERMANENTLY REDUCE YOUR SUFFERING?

Marcus Aurelius says that every day you must dip into thoughts that put you at immediate and complete ease.

Seneca says people are troubled more due their own imaginative creations than due to reality. Think better. Here is how:

Thinking is work. It is true that we do not always choose our thoughts and some negative thoughts would pop up out of nowhere to trouble our tranquil minds. Yet, it is also true that we can create our own thoughts. But very few people actually practice this act of creating your own thoughts. Most people simply follow their stream of consciousness to the extent of wasting a lot of their time on things that matter very little.

Think better means to inject fresh new thoughts into your mind yourself. It is this act of creating your own favorite thoughts when you realize your mind is cluttered with negativity. It requires visualization and some powerful words that immediately put you at ease.

Marcus Aurelius says that every day you must dip into thoughts that put you at immediate and complete ease. You must always have at your disposal few fundamental thoughts that wash away all your pain and renew you for action. Whenever negativity gets hold of you, immediately return to these few fundamental thoughts and renew yourself.

I started practicing it recently and I’m way happier than I used to be. Earlier, I would fall into the trap of my own thoughts telling me that life is meaningless and there is no point in trying to accomplish anything because death equals it all. Basically, I would think myself into nihilism & would chuckle at it, thereby WASTING a lot of time.

I still get some such thoughts. But now I tackle them better. As soon as I acknowledge that I’m going down the nihilistic spiral, I deliberately inject some very powerful words and images into my mind that puts me at immediate ease. These images are usually pulled up from my past achievements: moments of sheer joy & excitement. I also tell myself that I’m no more the same person who used to self sabotage my capabilities. Instead, I’m someone who is growing to be a very strong & powerful.

Such thoughts fuel me for more productive action and I stay elated almost 100% of the time.

You can do the same. Always remember that you can always choose what to think. Why not think better?

STARTING COMPLETELY OVER IN YOUR 30s

Create Quantum WealthLeave a comment

Someone asked this question on REDDIT: What was it like for you to start completely over when you were over 30? —

MY ANSWER: It was incredible. I’ve already done it twice & I’m planning to do it a third time.

What I believe in & what you must also give some thought to is the fact that we get only one life & that we’re going to die someday. Yet most of us live their lives like they are coming back or as if they’re immortals.

Life is short. All your desires will turn into regrets if you don’t work on them. Stop being afraid to go after the life you truly want.

A great book to read is “On the Shortness of Life” by Seneca. I go back to this book again and again in the moments of doubts & it frees me up.

What motivated me?
I’m always eager to improve my life. My main motivation has always been to get to the next level. And I’ve had a very humble childhood. I was an average boy. Very soft. Full of emotional needs. I’ve been a follower for a very long time, and so I was able to learn a lot. I always worked on my weaknesses & overcome them. So now I feel this huge urge to lead, to help others who are struggling the way I did.

How did I start?
Whenever I start over, I completely immerse myself into the new zone. I learn everything from the scratch. I give it all my time & focus. I get rid of all distractions. That’s how I did it twice and on my way to a third transformation now.

What steps I took?
1. Deep research.
2. Talking to industry experts.
3. Making sure that I complete all my previous pending stuff.

How did I feel?
Mixed feelings. When you face rejections in a new domain of work, it feels bad. But if you believe in yourself enough, you won’t give up. I didn’t. I kept moving after the rejections & setbacks. Then finally when you reach where you wanted to be, it feels so good, so amazing that you forget all the pain you had to go through reaching there.

Did I relocate?
Yes & no. I was already working away from home when I decided to switch the first time. So it was like coming back home. But I would’ve done it anyhow.

What do I wish I had known before that I know now?
I wish I had known it gets easier if you’re more mentally tough. I was a little tough anyhow, but transitions would’ve been happier if I was more tough. The rejections wouldn’t have hurt. The opinions of others wouldn’t have mattered much. It’s great when you don’t care about what others think. Mental toughness is the secret to happiness.

I no more fear anything anymore because I’ve come to the realization that fear is self induced. Danger is real but fear is a product of your imagination. Now I’m willing to go through litigation to succeed. I’m building my emotional bank account to be so strong mentally that I become limitless. I’m willing to fight and be confrontational if needed. I’ll do whatever it takes to succeed & be what I want to be.

I wish the same for everyone!

Good luck!

WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU GO BROKE?

Create Quantum Wealth2 Comments

Life is uncertain. Nobody knows the future, and if you’re really unfortunate, it may happen that you might have to face bankruptcy someday. If you’re broke, life gets miserable and it gets too hard to not think negatively. But don’t lose hope. I’ll give you some tools in this post that’ll guide your way into light again.

Here are a few things that will definitely help you:

1. Focus on making money. All your time, that goes on worrying about paying your bills, must be spent on thinking about how to make more money.

2. Money must be your primary value in life.

3. Practice minimalism. Find ways to do more with less. Read about stoicism.

4. Learn a new skill that can get you a better paid job.

5. Learn to sleep less so that you can work more. (Sleep more on weekends.)

6. Practice fasting. It helps in productivity, your mind works better and you’ll need less sleep.

7. Use affirmations that keep your mind positive about bills. Use self talk to tell yourself that everything will be alright. It helps in reducing stress and anxiety.

8. Visualize a bright future. Spare some 10-15 min everyday to simply imagine better things in your near future. Imagination is free and there are no limits to it. Use it vividly to picturize beautiful experiences.

9. Do what you love. Offer to work for free in an industry you are super excited about. Eventually, you’ll be paid for your work.

Good luck!
