I took a pause for about a month now to ponder over my strenghs & weaknesses, the future of this channel and more importantly to unplug altogether from the grind. I've been working with several voice programs to master vocal projection & reduce my accent. I dare say there's been some notable improvement in today's video compared to the last one. I'm proud yet humbled as I'm still & will always be a student, a work in progress.

I wish to thank you, my viewer for supporting educational content & this channel in particular. I'm truly grateful that you've hit that subscribe button for a reason. And I'll be working harder every single week to provide the best I can. This year has been the most strenuous as I had to learn several new skills. But, now that I've got my writing down & vocal projection decent, this upcoming year is going to be much like adding fuel to the fire (better & better quality videos). Plus, I've changed the channel name from "optimize your journey" to "the journey" it's shorter and more meaningful to me at least. The content is & will always be the same, except I'll be sharing thoughts unrelated to books in some upcoming videos but still educational.

The five levels of attachment mirrored to me some flaws I had while growing up. As a kid, I was quite picky when it came to friends. I would befriend only those who listen to the same genre of music I enjoyed. Childish isn't? yet chockingly, many adults nowadays own this same kind of boyish dogmatism. It's difficult to hang around someone who disagree with you, not in a negative way, but in a polite manner expressing his unorthodox ideas to you. The challenge is to learn how to listen to his unconventionalities & combat all the judgments poping up in your mind. To distance yourself from extreme levels of attachment, you should work on judging less & less. Judgment, as I guess, is automaticly triggered so we can't just stop it altogether. The spiritual practice here is to be mindful, detect your judgments & swiftly counteract. Say, "why did I just judge that (unnatractive/different/overweight, etc) person, do I even know this guy ? did he hurt me in any way or form?"

I hope you've got something out of today's video & I'm sure you did. Distancing ourselves from our attachments, or at least becoming aware of them is one huge stepping stone to becoming less negative, less judgmental & further relateable.

Guys, your comments & likes are highly appreciated & are needed as encouragement for me to provide more content. If you have any questions or feedback, please don't hesitate. Also, if you have some time, make sure to drop by the channel's twitter (link below), I share my thoughts in there as well.

Thanks for watching, see you soon,
*THE JOURNEY*
