#tag talk#I've been thinking and I think I know what my deal is. I hate discipline. I don't want to do anything I don't want to do.#going outside if I don't want to really won't make me happier. hanging out with friends when I don't want to just makes me angry and sad#I work out sometimes when I have the energy and motivation for it. but when I don't want to? I simply do not.#and sure. motivation is more complex than simply “will this make me happy in the moment?”#sometimes I work out because I notice my physical fitness fall below a certain threshold I have set for myself.#sometimes I go for walks not for short term happiness but for long term contentment.#sometimes I hang out with friends because maintaining the stability of the relationship makes me happy.#but I always have a reason. and if I don't have a reason why would I do it?#I'm not going to go to the gym because chasing physical fitness doesn't make me happy.#I don't care for discipline. I care for understanding the deeper motivation for action.#feels like a lot of manosphere philosophy preaches discipline as an isolated virtue.#similarly to child-rearing. your child should not obey purely out of discipline. there should be a level of trust and understanding at play.#talked with my little brother about life philosophies and that's when it really hit me that I hate discipline.#if I do not want to do something why would I force myself to do it?#it's like addiction therapy. you need a reason to quit. muscling your way through it is statistically an unsuccessful method.#you won't quit therapy through shame and moral posturing. you'll quit for your kids. for your health. for something important.#something that makes you care.#I don't do the dishes out of discipline. I do it because I want clean dishes to eat off of.#I still don't make my bed. it's a stupid waste of time and energy to me. i don't want to do I do not do it.#I straighten it up immediately before getting in for the night but that's it. only the practical bits.#I want to live a life that makes me happy. not one that makes other people happy that I'm following their arbitrary cultural morality.

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Riddle Rosehearts:
I think Riddle would initially be impressed by your precision and discipline, since, like him, you seems to be an extremely focused and dedicated person to your own responsibilities.
He might feel a tinge of envy towards MC's combat style, especially if the movement flows and is as perfect as he would like his own conduct to be. This could even fuel him to further improve his skills and discipline.
Despite his initial slightly envy with MC's "theatrical" combat style, he couldn't help but admire MC's technical ability to control the hydro element and use this power strategically.
If Riddle were to develop a crush on MC, he would likely become nervous and somewhat embarrassed about his inability to act "properly" or "flawlessly" around MC, fearing that he would be seen as inadequate in comparison to MC's confidence and skill.
If someone criticized your fighting style, Riddle would likely become extremely protective, fervently defending the value of your skills. He would not tolerate unfounded criticism, especially if it involved someone he cared about.
Leona Kingscholar:
Leona would have a grudging respect for MC's position as supreme judge. He does not easily admit admiration, but internally he would be impressed by the authority and presence that you possesses.
Leona, being who he is, couldn't resist making sarcastic or playful comments about your theatrical fighting style. Something like, "Are you going to dance or fight for real?" but with a smirk that suggests he's genuinely impressed.
During a battle, he would likely find herself mesmerized by MC's fluid, controlled movement, but would quickly hide any expression of fascination if anyone noticed.
He would likely respect and understand MC's introverted nature, considering he himself avoids unnecessary connections depending. He do likes you company too.
Azul Ashengrotto:
Azul would be completely mesmerized by your theatrical and danceable way of fighting. He would probably think about how your elegant and calculating style reflects his own meticulous way of conducting business.
MC's combination of introversion and kindness would intrigue Azul. He would feel challenged to better understand how someone so distant in public can, at the same time, exude such confidence in his actions.
Watching MC struggle with tendencies and determination, Azul reflected on his own insecurities, feeling inspired to continue improving himself, both as a businessman and as a mage.
I personally don't think Azul would revel in your hydro abilities, since he doesn't exactly feel the need for contact with water. Well, unlike Jade and Floyd. They would want to jump into the water bubbles you can make.
Yet, he's clearly trying to win you over with his knowledge as a merfolk.
Jamil Viper:
I think Jamil would feel a deep admiration for the MC's skill and specialties, but true to his nature, would try to keep this admiration to himself, afraid to stand out or be obvious in his fascination.
He would notice a similarity between the MC's reserved personality and his own way of hiding talents, which would increase his attraction, as he probably would feel understood on a deeper level.
I guess your reserved and distant nature would intrigue Jamil, awakening in him the desire to understand what motivates you, since he himself hides his true personality.
When others commented on the MC's theatrics during combat, Jamil would be silent, but inwardly he would be smiling, appreciating that you manages to balance mastery and discretion with such grace.
Vil Schoenheit:
Now, Vil It's a different case. He would notice the dedication and rigor that you must have to master such an elegant fighting style, which would impress him deeply, as he values hard work above all else.
He find the contrast between MC's introversion and her confidence in battle intriguing and captivating. He would see it as a kind of inner beauty worth exploring.
He is definitely intrigued to know more about how you developed your combat style and would possibly research it in secret to better understand.
Despite being strict with others, Vil would display fierce protectiveness if anyone belittled or underestimated you.
Idia Shroud:
Idia would probably be obsessed with watching your battles from a distance (via his tablet) to avoid the social pressure of being present, but would be in awe of the elegant fighting style.
If he had the opportunity to speak to the MC in person after seeing your fight, Idia would be incredibly nervous, stuttering even more than usual and perhaps letting out awkward compliments such as, "Y-you... are like, a secret boss with a special animation... I mean, your fight is amazing!"
He would be torn between wanting to praise you and avoiding any kind of interaction so as not to embarrass himself, resulting in long internal dialogues about how to act.
As someone who enjoys drawing parallels with games, he would comment to Ortho that MC's hydro abilities are "perfectly balanced, but clearly skill-based, like that rare build you only see in speedruns."
Idia would probably think of every possible scenario to try to conquer MC, but would give up on 90% of them because he believed it would be "certain defeat without a save point."
Malleus Draconia:
Malleus would be enchanted by your theatrical and fluid style of combat. He might compare it to a dance, finding it deeply fascinating and harmonious.
He realize that although MC is introverted and quiet, your determination and focus when fighting demonstrate an inner strength that he deeply respects. It kind of reminds him of himself.
As someone who has mastered natural magic, Malleus would be intrigued by the your skill with Hydro, possibly considering it a rare talent worthy of reverence.
He notice that the MC maintains an impressive calm even during intense battles, something he would associate with his own serene and measured attitude.
Whenever you faced danger, Malleus would be in the shadows, ready to intervene if necessary.

I often don't think before i i speak. It's like my Fi and Ne make a disastrous combination of putting me in embarassing situations where I can't take my words or actions back and I end up contemplating my entire life on those stupid decisions. I want to stop thinking about what all went wrong and actually work on improving myself. Any advice on how can I work on having a mental filter?
To solve a problem, first identify the causes. Reflect: What makes you impatient or impulsive? Why do you feel compelled to speak before you are actually ready? I can’t answer these questions for you because I can’t read your mind. Perhaps you need to improve emotional intelligence if your emotions always get the better of you. Perhaps you need better critical thinking skills in order to organize your thoughts better and understand the effects of your words. Perhaps you need to practice self-discipline in holding back and making space for reflecting on your actual motivation for speaking. If you want deeper self-insight, you have to inquire into yourself.
What is your type exactly? Excessive rumination on the past is a sign of dysfunctional Si, see the article on rumination as well as content about Si loop/grip. If you are INFP, it sounds like you use your functions poorly. E.g. Fi does whatever it feels instead of performing proper self-care; Ne reacts impulsively instead of enacting good ideas to make situations better; Si is uselessly fixated on the past instead of promoting careful and cautious behavior; Te is blindly aggressive instead of using constructive and objective thinking to mitigate problematic consequences. Please refer to the study guides to understand function misuse and function development.

Love Even If You Don't
Monday, July 24, 2017 The Radical Love The Bible says "love your wives", and "love one another". Someone might say, "I just don't love my spouse anymore, my feelings have changed". The answer to that is "Who cares"! Think about it - if you're supposed to take out the garbage and your response is, "I don't take it out like I used to", it doesn't matter. Just take out the garbage! God never asked you if you love, He just says love. He isn't interested in your feelings, it's a command. Do you think that husbands always feel like loving their wives, or vice versa, even in the best marriages? No more than people feel like always taking out the garbage, or doing anything else all the time. Just do what He said. That goes for anything in the Word. Don't make it so complicated. You don't have to feel it. That's good news, because it's bigger and deeper than feelings. Love anyway - the feelings will come. Praise Him anyway - the feelings will come. Rejoice anyway - the joy will come. Your faith and walk is too important to be bound up by something as flaky as feelings.
Today's Mission Obey God today and don't allow your feelings to control you. Regardless of your feelings - Just do it!
Proverbs 3:5-6 5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track. Don't assume that you know it all. Run to God! Run from evil! our body will glow with health, your very bones will vibrate with life! Honor God with everything you own; give him the first and the best. Your barns will burst,  your wine vats will brim over. But don't, dear friend, resent God’s discipline; don't sulk under his loving correction. It’s the child he loves that God corrects; a father’s delight is behind all this.
Summon the power of motivation Are you not motivated to take action? Then take action to get motivated. Do some little something. That will make you feel like doing something more. Motivation is not some esoteric power possessed only by elite achievers. Motivation happens when you mix desire or fear with some common sense, and add a touch of momentum. To summon the power of motivation, first understand what you truly want. Next, remind yourself that you'll have to take some action to fulfill that desire. Finally, go ahead and give yourself a taste of that action, even if it’s just a small one. Once you feel yourself acting to reach a goal you really, truly desire, you'll want a lot more of that great feeling. At that point, guess what? You're motivated, and you can ride that motivation wherever you intend to go.
Have a blessed day and week. May Yeshua the Messiah bless you, Love, Debbie
