I want to help people -> seek to help people -> people still need help -> seek to help -> people still need help->
These wants are soul-level passions.
You may be filled to the brim with them and not even know it.
The dopamine reward from tracking down, prioritizing, and doing the souls passion, is another level of unrivaled fulfillment. Brain-aura-crown Chakra tingling, deep body radiant content-ness. A soul-level dopamine hit.
Okay. Wow. You’ve done it again!Wow. I read this a few times, it really should be its own post. That line about screen time “stealing the resource of time itself away from the soul”? Whew. I felt that.
I love this idea of tracking your wants as a way to find your soul’s passions. It’s gentle, but powerful. And the way you describe that deeper kind of fulfillment “a soul-level dopamine hit” is so beautiful.
Feel free after witnessing and participating in the exercise, to make a how-to post. My words above are free to be copy/paste, no credits needed. What's ours is yours.
Im not much of an article author. We're happy to leave you to spreading the peace ♤♡◇♧
"See time as a resource to accumulate. Know the urgency, without the rush." You sure know how to make a line HIT. You may not be an article writer, but you sure could be. Thank you so much for the kindness and generosity. I will definitely be coming back to this.
This is way too relatable because I genuinely battle with this on a daily basis. I often find myself, grabbing my phone even when my brain is engaged in other activities and I have absolutely no reason to. I told myself that this summer I want to get back into reading as a form of turning my "bored" moments into something healthier. But the headaches and eye pain I get from constantly looking at a screen are criminial.
I hear you. It is so hard to read for like a 20 minute period! It’s like just when I get into it, is when I have to put the book down. One thing that helps the headaches is scrolling on your stomach (strengthens the neck muscles) and with the eye strain, every once in a while looking at something in the distance.
The what ifs are scary questions. It’s interesting because usually I go into my phone to distract myself from the issues I’m avoiding but I only end up feeling worse about them when I put the phone down.
When ive had too much screen time, it steals the resource of time itself away from the soul and its passions; it needs us to aid in accomplishing.
Which leaves me feeling any number of "non-postive" emotions. Lazy, regret, anxious, worthlessness, confusion.
"How to find the souls passion."
Write all the wants you want in a list.
Don't hold back.
Small wants, material wants, goal wants, everything. Ice cream, hang out, break a habit etc.
Write a list of all wants past and present. Even if its not wanted now, Write it down.
It won't be long before pages fill up. Might even write down "i dont want to be doing this".
Once all the wants are there.
♤☆Circle the wants, that can't be had, when gotten.. ☆♤
I want ice cream -> seek ice cream -> gotten ice cream.
I want to help people -> seek to help people -> people still need help -> seek to help -> people still need help->
These wants are soul-level passions.

Exactly! It’s a temporary solution. It mutes the pain momentarily and then you come back to your body and feel heavier/groggier.
