| Hello,
Id like to share my thoughts on happiness, a simple revelation i just had, and perhaps it might help someone who is feeling down. I am an average chump. I omit the word frustrated from the acronym AFC because I don't have a nervous twitch tick.
I wasn't always so calm. I used to feel very frustrated about particular things, and i do feel frustration at punctual moments but that is just normal.
Why do we smile? I am not talking about the polite smile, but the uncontrollable one where you do it without conscious thought. Its in that moment where i think that theres no doubt that you are happy however brief.
I believe that serendipity is very much at the cause of it. Serendipity is when favorable outcomes stems from a situation and you weren't looking for it. Some might call it the luck of the draw. And like many things, people can't see the forest for the tree, and myself have a hard time seeing it.
This draw can be rigged as many people have found. If you control the situation where any infinite outcome can stem from, and you set this situation to be positive ,then any outcome can only be positive. This goes from fashion, job, financial reserves, the people you frequent to the deodorant you are wearing. You come up with a solution.
So they put all their energy and time to control that punctual situation, and itll work, and you'll be happy for that moment where you live in that situation. And when another different situations come up. Maybe the solution you brought to the table might work again, but theres still might be a margin of chance left because its a different situation, so you work to fill the gap. And then another situation comes up, and its the same thing, and you have to work hard again. And then there might be in a situation where the whole solution comes crashing down. And then, you build a specific solution adapted to it. You start having dichotomies, and its starts to become overly complex, and all the while you work so very hard to maintain it.
This inner division starts to make you unhappy, because it is not serendipitous, it is not agreeable. You become unhappy.
The beauty in physics is that it defines a small set of principles that manage to explain all known phenomenas. Instead of working with a dichotomy like there existed between quantum mechanic and relativity, they united it under one umbrella with string theory.
In brazilian jiu jitsu, many beginners favor a certain top position or guard, and each is a different framework. When you start reaching a certain level of skill, you start throwing away your preferences for a certain set of guards and submissions, and the whole of grappling starts to become one picture. At a grander scale if you have varied experience, you stop defining wrestling, greco, sambo, jiujitsu, judo, yoga, or wushu as different entities where you need to work on separate and each requiring 10 years to master ( making it impossible for a human being to do). You start defining a principle based framework that works for all the arts.
By defining THE solution for ALL INFINITE situations, serendipity comes.
This is all nice and everything, but up to now it lacks specific.
I can say this much about diet. Avoid eating anything you wouldn't eat at ambient temperature. That fried burger is amazing when it all warm and fresh. Leave it, and come back two hours after when it had time for its temperature to sync with the ambient temperature. I can definitely tell you, it wont look so appetizing. You'll see the fat solidify, and it'll look plain nasty. What do you think Mr Enzyme goes through when you eat a burger. Imagine a nutrient like a girl. So he is scoring on good and average nutrients, and he's all happy. Then there's this fat one that comes along. Mr Enzyme is an enzyme of enzyme, he wont say no to whaling. He'll be traumatized and stash it in a closet ( the layer under your skin) afterwards.
So we've learned something about diet, sex, and how first impression can be deceiving and can put it under one simple rule: "An ounce of patience is worth a pound of brains"
Fill in the rest...
