A lot of things are going wrong because I’m trying to do my own will these days. I see that God is not punishing me, but letting everything unfolt in a way to learn me something. It’s all coming back to this one thing, everything needs to be perfect right now

For instance, I impulsively purchased a 2200 euro laptop with the intention of integrating it into the Samsung ecosystem, only to discover that it doesn’t align with my needs. The oversized touchpad, unresponsive keyboard, and subsequent repair issues have consumed a significant amount of my time and energy. In retrospect, I acknowledge a nagging feeling that I should have waited and conducted more thorough research.

Similarly, I committed to a costly one-year gym subscription primarily due to its convenient location. However, the atmosphere and amenities haven’t lived up to my expectations, and the financial commitment feels excessive. Once again, I recognize a hesitation that I ignored, driven by my desire for immediate access to a sauna.

Even in the context of my custom software preferences, I find myself rushing decisions without considering the most effective approach. My impatience to have everything perfect instantly has led to inefficiencies, with the need for adjustments and corrections taking up more time than if I had taken a more thoughtful and measured approach.

Reflecting on these situations, it seems I might be struggling with an instant gratification problem, seeking immediate satisfaction at the expense of long-term fulfillment. Moving forward, I realize the importance of resisting the urge to rush decisions and taking the time to thoroughly research and consider my options. This should help me avoid unnecessary complications and setbacks in the future.

I’ve been dealing with a bunch of problems lately because I’ve been jumping into things without really thinking. Turns out, my quest for perfection on the spot has just brought me a load of hassle and annoyance. I don’t like the process when it comes to solving problems, I want it to be fixed and perfect.

Take, for example, the fancy 2200 euro laptop I got. I wanted it to be part of the Samsung ecosystem for some reason, but it turns out it’s not really neccesary. The touchpad is huge and useless, the keyboard’s wonky, and now it’s off to repairs. I had this nagging feeling to wait, but nope, I had to have it ASAP.

Then there’s this gym subscription I signed up for – 54 euros a month! I just went for it because it’s down the street, but the vibe is off, and it’s not worth the money. I had that feeling like, “Hmm, is this right?” But I really, really wanted access to a sauna instanly. Now I don’t even use it and go to my other gym.

Same with my custom, needed it to be perfect and now I hopefully they can fix it on time.

Seems like I’ve got this instant gratification issue going on. Need to slow down, do some proper research, and stop making things harder for myself. Lesson learned.

I received my custom order and took a 15-minute loop to assess how I will handle it. Since I have the weekend off starting today, it’s a good time for a bit of recon. I’ll be closing this journal soon and starting a new one in the custom section.

It becomes more challenging when it comes to experimenting with nootropics. I only took one nootropic (finally, lol) this morning called noopept. I felt a slight buzz, but now after doing my 15min of my custom , my brain started to fire agian. Now I’m not sure if it’s the effect of noopept or my custom.

I think if you really want to figure things out, you have to go to the mountains for at least a year, do nothing, and add one thing at a time for two weeks to see how it works. :joy:

Did you get these issues resolved?
