"Meditative state"
7 June 2016 at 15:05
I didn't feel swift today, so I'm taking an off day to recover. And it is not a waste. I have been in a meditative state, self reflecting and pondering. Among which, I have realized among my problems is lack of better self-motivation. In my subconscious are all of my fears and stresses. My creations, reputation, and life in general, are all still being met with mixed results; the bad half lingers. And at home, something that leaves me with a shock is inevitable, which drains me more quickly if the severity is high. And I find myself also stuck in a rut where I could be doing more work here, but something else comes up, or my ADD throws me a mental curveball towards a different focal point. So, the question that I am still pondering: how do I better self-motivate, keep my waking energy focused on the required tasks that have yet to be completed at hand from creation, and how do I keep my set on blocking out stressed reactions to random inputs that would cause such? Your answer may be "Just Do It", but with a creative mind with fickle energies and moods/emotions that are prone to easy distraction and drain, that Is the weakness set. And therefore the most difficult to pinpoint, identify and reprogram the mind to heal and counter all of that. To put it in a way I believe you may relate with: your daily work in front of a computer with tasks simple to you with prior educations... Charts and Graphs that you have created with details of the company you work for. It all went smoothly for you. But, suddenly, you are met with a shock! Your lover has left you for another and will never return? The rent is Past Due with Final Notice? There is illness or maybe a death in the family? Or maybe your own mind has fallen into a dark void of being lost, blank and confused beyond your own belief and understanding for hardly a noticeable reason. The following day at your job, you sit there; looking at your monitor, but you are barely able to function, even while your own mind is conscious, stuck in a constant observation-only function. You feel like you can hardly move or think. I do understand Everyone has their own set of stresses. And among the creative types who feel this way as well, I have been stuck, waiting for that recovery and inspiration to finally return, so we can Feel and Have the energy we each Require to Create in our own way! I do wish it was "Bob's your uncle" quick and easy for the mental and emotional recovery for me. But it's not. And the remains of the Autism aren't helping much either. |

Y'know what I find helps keep focus? A clean home and a daily routine. I find myself freed up when everything is in its place - it's hard to focus on doing something I like if my environment is a mess. And the only way to reach a stable point at home is to develop a daily routine to keep your home tidy. A place for every thing, and every thing in its place. Cleaning can also be very therapeutic. Just put on some of your favorite tunes and get things done! 🎧👍 |

Furthermore, finding a place for everything might help you stay focused - I imagine the amount of media and playthings surrounding you makes it easy to get distracted from whatever task you have at hand. I hope this helps! ❤️ |

I agree with what Jessica said. A messy room can be psychologically draining. In terms of cleaning being therapeutic, I've seen that with washing dishes the old fashioned way with a sink of hot, soapy water. It can take your mind off your troubles |

Transformers
13 June 2016 at 16:30
Firstly, I want to clarify something, since some people behind their mothers' basements sought and leaked amongst their kiwi grapevines, prevaricatively: unexpected last month, one of my credit account limits was raised, and I used half of it to catch up on the Combiner Set Collection catch-up. Bruticus. Plus, lovely female Autobots: Arcee, Chromium and Wingblade. And I gave the other half to my mother to help with the bills here. Also, Fun: you're a male-born child with a mom and dad in the 80's, shortly after middle or end of Season Three Transformers G1. You want to play Transformers with your family, and Really want to include mom (and you Never got to even hear of the "Search for Alpha Trion" episode, much less the Orion Pax episode). What role can mom play; knowingly, you only can think of Arcee. While dad is the "Optimist" (pun intended), and you're Bumblebee. And the game is to spy on and take out the Decepticons in their current Energon-stealing scheme. Well, more than three decades later: the transforming figure of Arcee is finally released, and with a deluxe Optimus Prime and Bumble figure, and Starscream, Megatron and Soundwave, the family game of yesteryears can Finally be played for real. Totes Sweet and Sparkles! |
Transformers addendum

Also, Someone Draw from G1 female characters, and maybe current Windblade, a Five Piece Combiner with All Female Transformers! Elita-One can be the centerpiece! And then Arcee, Chromium, Windblade, and take your pick: Moonracer, Firestar, one of the others there, or even Black Arachnia (after becoming a Maximal). Epic Female Combiner! Someone suggest that to Hasbro and the comic book people. Yeah! |
Credit increase
13 June 2016 at 16:39
But, seriously: that credit increase was a bonus that went quick. And mom impulsively spending more on the bills than minimum payment as usual, we are financially down early this month. What that means to me more emotional ware in my subconscious; it slows me down more compared to early in the months. So, I am more than serious on asking in my recent video for donations. So, if you can donate either through the Support button on my YouTube channel, or better yet PayPal it to my email address, please. Thank you. |

Spending more on the bills is good though! |

Paying only the minimum payment isn't the wisest idea - it leads to you paying far more in the long run. If anything, it's a smart idea. |

Have you thought of working with a credit counselor and consolidating your debts so you make one payment every month? It would result in a substantial savings in terms of bill payments. |
