Enthusiastic Living!
Life requires energy to live it and your level of energy is connected directly to your thoughts. Children seem to have an almost unlimited amount of enthusiasm, but children also don’t waste too much time thinking about the wrong stuff. Adults do that. There is a competition that rages daily and that contest is for the allegiances of your mind. You spend or reserve your energy by the thoughts you…

NEW IQ MATRIX: Beat Back Fear [#0498]
The Beat Back Fear IQ Matrix explores how to overcome the fears holding you back from living your best life. When you experience fear, you often respond to something that brings a great deal of uncertainty and instability to your life. It, subsequently, affects how you perceive your circumstances, what you believe you’re capable of, and ultimately the decisions you make. Learning how to beat back that fear will buy your ticket to greater freedom and the opportunity to live your best life.
This map, first, helps you recognize and work through three common fears that typically plague our lives. It then guides you on how to take control of your perspective, how to get very clear on your intentions, and how to work through your fear rationally and assertively.
You can read a more detailed outline of this map at - https://store.iqmatrix.com/shop/beat-back-fear

au where jedi healers take a vow not unlike jedi temple guards, but instead of wearing a mask and becoming anonymous, they give up their sight and wear blindfolds to allow the Force to guide their every action. it’s also supposed to blind them to their patients’ differences, which used to be symbolic but since the war between the jedi and the sith broke out, has become much less so
because jedi healers are supposed to heal regardless of if their patient is a jedi or a sith, when they’re deployed on battlefields after the fighting is over, they use the Force to heal every injured person they come upon.
anakin skywalker, who was chosen from the creche and agreed to follow the Healing path at the age of 9, thinks it’s sort of stupid that they have to wait until after the fighting is over to begin to help because he can feel people dying in the Force, he can feel their pain--
young general kenobi, who remembers his old creche-mate anakin skywalker and how blue his eyes once were, thinks it’s beyond foolhardy that this healer is stealing out across an active battlefield, blindfold over his eyes and bending down to heal karking darth maul and single-handedly diverting all of obi-wan’s attention away from the droids and sith legion because now he has to make sure he’s ok he can’t just leave him to the whims of the Force, he’s unprotected and he’s going to get himself killed----
it’s a headache and a half for everyone involved because general kenobi keeps abandoning his battle strategy and sometimes even position to ensure healer skywalker’s safety and healer skywalker keeps dropping everything and everyone the moment he feels obi-wan kenobi get hurt in the Force to rush to his side, Force Vow of Healing Equality be damned.
but......the Council keeps deploying them to the same battlefield because healer skywalker is never more effective as when he knows he must heal fifty mortal wounds before he can rid general kenobi of a headache, and general kenobi is never as ruthless as when skywalker is on the field close to him, in potential harm’s way
despite how much they insist they hate each other

You know those girls on TikTok who did that "your skin peels after every period" bit? A bunch of the girls on the Playa conspired together and did the same thing, and they managed to fully convince at least half of the guys it was a real fact.
Ezekiel is even more afraid of women now that he knows about the Monthly Peeling.

COCO. It’s fate that the number of captains concisely matches the twst bois. They were meant for this au real/j
I’m curious as to what Sam and Crewel’s sword names and bankais are! And Cater’s, I mean what anyways
Do overblots equate hollows in this au-
It must be one of those unpredictable things of fate.
Let's start with Cater...*wink, wink*
Cater Diamond -
- Lieutenant [alongside Trey Clover] of Captain Riddle. They all belong to the 3rd squad.
For the "activation phrase/word" and the names of the Zanpakuto, I usually leave the name of the Unique Magic in one of them. In Cater's case "Split Card" is the Shikai phrase.
SO, CATER SHIKAI-
Watch Closely...
`Kagayakeru fumetsu no hōseki (?)'
"Shining Immortal Jewel"
Cater's power allows him to MULTIPLY the number of blows he inflicts on the enemy depending on the steps he takes until he gets closer.
Suppose you are 5 steps away from him… 5 hits together… suppose you are 20 steps away from him… 20 Hits.
You could run away [ but keep adding hits if he grabs you ] or stay close and take 1 or dodge.
Cater's Zanpakuto is about the relationship between trying to break/dividing something you can't break [the myth of the unbreakable diamond] so the more hits... more chance. The Bankai... will also have to do with that...
Yes. I translated the Japanese with Google , it probably says something that has nothing to do with it. but it is undeniable that it is very cool... Do not use it, as precaution... but IMAGINE CATER SAYING THAT IN JAPANESE.
-> Sam and Crewel Zanpakuto names below! and info-
Sam Zanpakuto Shikai:
Shiver fear...
"Suimin mahi"[ Sword name : Sleep Paralysis ]
Bankai: its a Secret <3 ok no
... Panic ...
"View to the Dance of a Thousand Shadows"
Divus Zanpakuto Shikai:
Discipline!
"Ken'i no koe"[ Sword name : Authority Voice ]
Bankai:
Stay!
"Bound to the Beast's command"
and-
Do overblots equate hollows in this au?
Hollow and Overblot are apparently equivalent and born the same way (negative energy), but for some reason- the shinigamis are not naturally immune to these Overblots... as are those with Hollows (?).
The Overblots of the students are more related to the Vizard (Shinigamis that have- generated Hollow powers). So this Au is going to deal with why this happens and who is causing it. Not Aizen.
They're both here causing chaos.

Managing Your Expectations Part 2 (Fear Not)
There is more to managing your expectations than just being aware of the spiritual forces at work in your life and endeavoring to remain positive. There is also a hidden ingredient involved in many people’s lives and that ingredient is fear. Fear can be very subtle and has many disguises. Fear serves only to thwart and hinder life. Fear slows your experience down to a standstill. Fear engaged…

not enough stories exist where maverick actually wanted bradley to fly when he was older. he could feel it in his bones, see it in the stars. he showed the kid around a toolbox and taught him to strip an internal combustion engine and scrubbed the oil off his hands before he went home to mom. taught him to drive stick (probably underage lets be real) because it’s important to feel the bite and the grip and how the revs drop when you shift up. more than once he found bradley sitting in the idle car with the engine on because the dull roar helps him think - mav understands that feeling better than anyone. and yeah carole’s not thrilled but she’ll come around because one day she’ll see what mav sees. right? right?
she doesn’t tell mav she doesn’t want bradley to fly until she’s sick. until the lucid days barely outweigh the confused. there isn’t time to fight back, to talk her round.
so maverick doing what he does and pulling rooster’s papers isn’t just tragic because he’s making a choice that hurts his boy. it’s tragic because he’s shattering his own hopes and dreams for rooster. he’s sold him on a lifelong feeling and a passion and a lie that he never meant to tell in the first place.

I’m not sure what it means that “demon” and “semen” rhyme, but it feels like it should mean something.
Also, now that I have noticed they rhyme, they are stuck in my head on a loop.
Demon semen. Demon semen. Demon semen. Just over and over. DemonsemensdemonsemendemonsemenSendHelpPlease
