I’ve been journaling my daily work using Logseq for the past year or so. It has transformed how I work. It’s a log of the little wins I’ve tackled, notes on what was the route to success, and links to where the solution is, whether that is a Confluence doc, a PR on GitHub.

It is also a “memorium pool”, I no longer have to stress about remembering things. It has a powerful note linking mechanism that is automatic, I can find related notes easily and visualise how they are related to each other.

If something comes up during the day, I can tag it as /TODO and it will add that note on a calendar view so I can quickly glance if I have things I need to take care next week.

Give it a go. Remind yourself you win every day. Remind yourself that things do take time. Remind yourself that what you do today matters.

This post is not sponsored. It’s just me grateful for open-source. Want start your journaling today? Go here: https://logseq.com/

In 2010, #RFKJr was experiencing #memory loss & #mental fogginess so severe that a friend grew concerned he might have a #brain tumor. #Kennedy said he consulted several of the country’s top neurologists, many of whom had either treated or spoken to his uncle, Senator Edward M. Kennedy, before his death the previous yr of brain cancer.

Several drs noticed a dark spot on the younger Kennedy’s brain scans & concluded that he had a tumor, he said in a 2012 #deposition reviewed by NYT.

#Trump relies on a doctor who is a member of his golf club to vouch for his health

After Trump escalated his longstanding attacks on Pres #Biden’s #health & #mental #fitness last fall, he released the 1st updated report on his own condition in >3 yrs.
The report had just 3 paragraphs w/o specific numbers, proclaimed that Trump was in “excellent health” & had “exceptional” cognitive ability, & did not disclose Trump’s weight.

I can't tell if this is logical 🤷🏻‍♀️🥴

#Psychiatry Won’t Solve Our #MentalHeath Health Crisis — Only #Politics Can Do That

Politicians want to improve our worsening mental health with big psychiatric initiatives. The problem with this model, says historian of #neuroscience Danielle Carr, is that it ignores the social and structural forces causing widespread #mental #suffering.

OC Many people have this question in their mind 'How to remove fear from mind and heart', here is the answer

Ah, you want the lowdown on how to remove fear from the mind and heart? No problemo. Picture this: visualize yourself conquering whatever frightens you while repeating the mantra, "I am the master of my universe, and fear is my plaything." Fear becomes a mere whisper in the background as you embrace the Christina-style...

There are some Internet that provide help to them though (I doubt they completely cure said difficulties but a small help is always better than none!).

Anthropologists using the tool of #ethnography to gain understanding of treatment of severe #mental illness:

' a key ingredient in recovery is “giving people a chance to create meaning around their experience.” In contrast, ...most psychiatric treatment consists of heavily prescribed drugs that “dull the experience but are not helping people to do the deep mucking out of spiritual, emotional, and psychological work” that recovery requires.'

'..social and economic factors can often increase the risk of schizophrenia more than any known genetic influences. These factors range from living in an urban rather than a rural environment to being an immigrant, living in poverty, emotional and sexual abuse (especially in childhood), and parental death,..'

New Research Reveals That Soccer Goalkeepers Process the World Fundamentally Differently
Researchers have found that soccer goalkeepers process multisensory information uniquely, with efficient temporal binding windows and a tendency to segregate sensory information. The cause, either due to rigorous training or inherent abilities, remains a topic for further exploration.

Trump’s Plans for a Second Term Are So Bad That They Almost Make the First One Look Good

Given how the first one went, you can probably guess why that's a bad thing.

Shortly before the 2020 election, Trump signed an executive order known as Schedule F, allowing his administration to gut employment protections for thousands of career federal employees whose jobs—which range from making sure the air is clean to ensuring food and drugs are safe

The thing i find the most upsetting:
If more people got #mentalhealth help, and had the basics (food, shelter and medical)

We wouldnt have to have huge #prisons filled with people with #mental #disabilities

Prevention.

Get people the help they fucking need. The system is fucking over #autistic ; #bipolar ; #schizophrenia ; #personalitydisorders and LOTS of other treatable #disabled people

So unhelpful and counterproductive for the #society people actually want to create
