Thank you all! It's a very ambitious goal but my trainer and I have concluded that it's not out of the realm of possibility, and as I enter my prime years of athleticism I want to aim the biggest I ever have aimed!
And today's session was pretty brutal lol but got it done! Brick by brick!

Thanks for coming back to us :)
Onwards to the next day, and the day after... good luck on your journey.

I’m getting more serious with my meditation practice. Went down the Buddhist book rabbit hole and came across the idea of the jhanas as a next step after a metta practice, read this article, and given some patience, miraculously entered the first jhana if only for a few moments…it is next level
I haven’t been this excited about Buddhism in a while

Alright, I'm in India so my day starts now. I'm free today so, I will achieve a top 10 rank on SN leaderboard.
reply
Here, have a few sats to kickstart your objective.
reply
Thank you so much! I think after this zap I shuld be in the top 10 now!🤗 The leaderboard is quite addictive, isn't it?
reply
It is addictive. I am doing a lot of paperwork these days, so it's easier to spend a few minutes here and then to post on SN. My activity levels here might decrease again after I finish the paperwork and finish my job application.
reply
Great! So, first time job?
I'm asking because I was also planning to get a job in private sector but I just didn't find it worth as I was told to be paid less than $100. So, I decided to do some agricultural work and SN of course! With both of them I think I'll be better off than doing a job! At least I can be the master of myself.
reply
Oh no, I've been working for a long time. Trying to get a permanent job in academia. It's highly competitive due to the broken nature of the pyramid shape that forms below a professor, having several postdocs, and even more PhDs under their guidance.
Good luck finding the thing that drives you.

Incidentally, I am currently adding an entry to my CV about a collaboration with the Indian Institute of Science.
reply
Indian Institute of Science is the best one here. Did you visit India to collaborate or it was virtual thing?
Ahh I see! So you are well set to be a professor. It's a highly paid job. It must be good.
I was trying to get a job in primary school but hee in India, the salary in the private sector is very low and I thought it's better to do nothing than to do it for 2 to 3 dollars everyday.

After a month of dedication, one more stamp and I get a 13% discount on my next coffee 😏
