stoicism + flow = eudaimonia

using AI for coding is a deeply technical engineering craft

most people don't approach it as so, and don't get the results we associate with high craft

but the ones who do have been sprinting ahead

more tokens wont save you, more thinking + skill + llm intuition will

have been saying this for almost 9 months now

@justinskycak enjoyment vs pleasure

[James Clear @JamesClear]

You are not your grand plans. You are your daily patterns.

[StoaLabs @StoaLabs]

Blessed are those who can derive pleasure from even the smallest things in life, for that is no small thing.

“Dostoyevsky was right; every self-betrayal is a sin. Whenever you go against your nature, your body makes a point to remind you.”

[StoaLabs @StoaLabs]

Remember the goal isn't to be perfect but to progress, you will fall short, you will get angry, you will stumble, but you are moving foward none the less. Gaining stronger, feet, back mind

All this to support the others around you, the more resilient you become the more others can lean on you and what a blessing that is.

hard to believe but moderation in all parts of life is one of the most important things to have

how will you appreciate anything if you have it all the time

@AnodisedLife @danwestworld what have you been doing this whole time then? you thinking your not built up yet is the reason you got that anxiety

[StoaLabs @StoaLabs]

self reminder: find out the reason you get upset so quickly when your gf says lets do x on a sunday morning which was previously an empty day...

why are you unable to switch course and get upset?

what is the underlying misjudgment?

[StoaLabs @StoaLabs]

the thing about flow is that you don't need to have an activity to achieve it, thats a distraction. to actually have a good life you need to be able to remove the reason you can't get to flow, and that reason is your misjudgments

[StoaLabs @StoaLabs]

stoicism + flow = eudaimonia

and there is nothing more important to understand, idc what your doing with your life. your not accomplishing anything if you don't understand this

[StoaLabs @StoaLabs]

people truly have a misunderstanding of what stoicism is and how to properly achieve flow.

[StoaLabs @StoaLabs]

The goal of life:

To achieve Flow, not just in work but in every aspect of life. The way to do so is by removing what causes the blockage of Flow.

Misjudgments
