Thoughts of a TechnoWizard

UX Design is such an exciting and useful way of thinking and process because it forces you to really understand other people's perceptions and behaviors. In this audiojournal entry, I share my thoughts about why mental models can greatly impact how effectively you can solve an important problem.

Being alone is painful. Being different very often leads to you being alone. In this entry I share my story of what it's like being different and alone. I also reflect a bit on the issue of males in general finding it difficult to connect with other people on a deeper, fundamental level like our ancestors likely had an easier time doing. Check out my mom's creations at @ja_adorn_designs!! Some really dope stuff.

I have been trying to use meditation to help get rid of my cold, but I simply don't believe in this spiritual experience enough. In this audiojournal entry, I share how my fears and anxieties about believing in anything other than science makes it difficult to benefit from things like the placebo effect and 'self-healing'. I talk about how the circle of knowledge always creates more and more things that we don't know or can't explain. Self doubt is part of the journey. Even if I don't fully believe/understand, I can still utilize meditation and yoga and manifestations to help better my life.

I am once again for your emotional support, hehe smh. But seriously, I keep letting myself sink into these new stories and fictions when I should be moving towards my goals as fast and purposefully as I can. I need an accountability partner. Frfr. I get real vulnerable in this entry and share one of my major vices: reading. Please help me stay on my path and prod me to keep moving forward as fast and purposefully as we all know I can. I'd love to help you do the same in return!!

I am incredibly grateful and privileged to be surrounded by so many amazing and passionate people! In this audiojournal entry, I share my gratitude for my loved ones. Thank y'all for being awesome!!

What is confidence? It is the simple act of not being afraid to change. It is the acceptance of growth and the empathy of connection. It is the self empowerment of awakened beings able to go after the life they want and know they can have, no matter the adversities in their way. Is antifragility. In this audiojournal entry, I share my own struggles with this simple idea and talk about how many of us suffer from this same problem in different ways. I go on to discuss how we can break out of this cycle of low/no confidence in order to step into our true potential. Change is a mind state shift.

It is (1)2020 and we are still largely worried about the same problems that our ancestors were worried about 10,000 years ago. Food, shelter, water, social connections, and access to resources. We still must work to get each one... We still must spend a lot of time trying to manage these basic needs. In this audiojournal entry, I share my disappointment with where we are now as a species, and my hope for what we can accomplish and where we can be within our lifetime.

Awakening. It is a term used in these spiritual journeys once you begin to get into meditation, manifestations, and spirituality outside of religion. In this audiojournal entry, I share my thoughts, ideas, and experiences as I go through my own journey of Awakening. It is a process of selflessness and breaking out of the constraints of learned consciousness. It is the path of always being curious about the true reality of the universe and world we live in. It is the awareness of connection that you have with every living creature and even non living beings in our shared illusion of reality. It is a journey with no end, and constant growth. It is a pleasure and privilege to go on this journey with you!!

Mind altering substances have walked alongside human evolution for a long time, since the beginning. It is a source of everything from spirituality to philosophical thinking. I share a little bit of my experiences from my last experiment in this audiojournal entry.

Are science and spirituality at odds with each other? Are they two sides of the same coin? Or are they opponents in the fight for knowledge and understanding? In this audio journal entry, I share some insights into how these two binary ideas are actually partners in an ever shifting dance across the universe. I share some warnings about the corrupting nature of faith and how it poisons both by disallowing questions and our natural curiosity. We are rational creatures, and so we can utilize both spirituality and science, to the exclusion of faith. Let us take this journey together! The universe is big and full of wonderful mysteries... Truth is stranger than fiction.
