A lot of advice says “find a mentor,” but nobody really explains how that happens in real life.
I don’t want it to feel forced or transactional.
For those who’ve had mentors, did the relationship develop naturally over time or did you actively seek it out?
Hey everyone, I’m heading to Iceland in a few months and just booked my first glacier caving tour in Vatnajökull through Guide to Iceland. I’ve never done anything like this before so I’m equal parts excited and a little nervous.
The tour I picked is the one that takes you inside the ice caves with a small group and a guide. I’ve heard the blue ice and the whole experience is unreal, especially with the way the light hits inside. Since it’s my first time, I wanted to ask those of you who’ve done it:
Super pumped to finally do this but I don’t want to show up unprepared. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks yall.
We apparently can't smell ourselves the way others can. So what do you actually smell like to other people? Has anyone ever told you?
It is everywhere now and studies show brain effects on young guys this debate divides fast
There is something incredibly eternal about the way a physical arrangement of plasma and gravity can become the ultimate and heavy celestial anchor, a deliberate rejection of the darkness in favor of a frequency that is all about the grit of the atom and the high energy of the furnace, it feels like a masterclass in cosmic pressure where the raw and heavy pull of a collapsed core and the high energy radiation of a solar flare become a direct connection to the very elements that make up our honest bones, and even with all the high tech telescopes and the digital space mapping there is still no replacement for that first and vulnerable moment of looking into the heavy and tactile reality of a clear night sky and realizing the heavy and ancient frequency of a star’s death is only just reaching your eyes
how is life for you as an adult
school, work, relationships, daily stuff
what is hardest part and what actually helps
also did things get easier or harder with age
just trying to understand real experiences from people who live it
I’ve read a lot of guides and understand the basics, but there’s still that hesitation in the back of my mind. I don’t mind experimenting, but I also don’t want to accidentally push something too far. As long as temps and voltage are within reasonable limits, is the risk actually high? Or is most damage caused by extreme settings? Trying to understand how careful I really need to be.
Working in a kitchen seems like it requires a mix of speed, precision, teamwork, and creativity all at once. It’s not just about cooking well, but also handling pressure and consistency.
What skill took you the longest to really get good at in a professional kitchen, and why was it so challenging?
