Let's change the way we approach life

An Alan Watts analogy on emotions

Before we move on:

My Nan was my life idol

So full of life until the very end

She taught me how to live life to the full

Here are some sayings she would always say, the stories that are connected to them and what she meant by them

This one was hard to write

//Thread//
1. "People are people"

Story: During WW2, my nan was sent to the countryside. A German prisoner killed a snake and said "I save you"

He was meant to be the enemy, but showed kindness

Lesson: No matter a person's background, how they treat and act is what matters
2. "It's not what you know, it's who you know"

Story: Wherever Nan frequently shopped from, she would always get to know the manager or boss

She bypassed a lot of problems and got great deals

Lesson: Knowing the right person will give you better options and access

"Sleep is not a luxury, it's a necessity.""

10 Ways to Improve your Sleep

//Thread//
1. Use dim lights before bed
2. Sleep in a dark room
3. Avoid screens before bed

Light affects your Circadian Rhythm (sleep-wake cycle)

When there's light, your brain thinks it's day time and wakes up

When it's dark, your brain thinks it's night and goes to sleep
4. Reduce/Quit Caffeine Intake

Caffeine has negative affects on your sleep

Even when you think you are sleeping well, you could be sleeping better

Don't drink any caffeine in the afternoon

To learn more about caffeine check out my recent thread

Embrace your feelings like a sailor embraces the wind:

Time and time again you see twitter accounts say

"control your emotions, control your life" (Or something similar)

We're not robots, emotions should be embraced

Not sure what I mean? I'll explain
👇👇

Wind and Sailor Analogy:

Feelings are like the wind in a sail for a sailor

You need the wind to navigate

1. If you resist, you will lose complete control

2. If you let it overtake your navigation, you will end up at a different destination than you want
You need to work with the wind in order to navigate to your desired destination.
