adamchalmers / Adamchalmers is on Nostr

On a quest with my wife and 4 kids to find deeper meaning and prosperity in our lives through genuine connections, experiences, adventure, wellness and Bitcoin.

Keen to meet other individuals and families who are actively moving towards a new way of living.

What’s the best application out there for converting Bitcoin to dollars and spending via debit card?
I’m travelling and need an option that will do this seamlessly for me across multiple currencies.

I could not agree more. This is the reason I avoided Nostr till this point. Concerns over concentration of similar ideas.
Without the diversity of opinion we end up with a little echo chamber of back slapping that looks like a cult to anyone coming in from the outside.
For Nostr to thrive it must be embraced by a wide demographic.

Fear is the ultimate enemy.
Defeat it and win a life of endless possibilities.
Let it defeat you and remain a psychological embryo, half formed and underdeveloped, unable to reach your potential for a full life.  Fear is within, NOT without.
 The enemy is the fear of the unknown and unfamiliar, of change, and of realising our own greatness. The fear of social scorn, of missing out, of failing and taking risks.
It is fear born of the mind, devoid of reality and detached from the physical realm.   Fears based on actual threats to our physical body are acute, occasional, and grounded in a tangible concern we must physically avoid. This kind of fear can be managed and it is NOT the enemy we must defeat.   It is the fear of what could be, NOT what is, that cripples us.  By taking less risks; avoiding raising families, having holidays over adventures, missing golden opportunities, choosing comfort over growth, doubting our ability to love and be loved, and ignoring the inevitability of death - that which gives life its urgency and meaning is missed.
We allow others to tell us how to act, make decisions on our behalf, and dictate our behaviours all because we are afraid, afraid to live.
If COVID showed us anything it is that people can be manipulated to behave in unusual ways all through perceived fear.
Fear is a tool used by the powerful to control the weak but the powerful are NOT the enemy. They simply understand the power of fear to coerce.   To disarm them we must face our fears. Then they have no power over us.  When we realise that fear is a feeling and that sensations do not have to dictate our thoughts and actions we begin claiming back the power to create our own life.
Feeling the fear and pushing through it is a process that strengthens over time. Fear can become, rather than a barrier to growth, a hurdle to leap over.   Fear can motivate us to act, for it is action that breaks the power of fear.  As the fears of the mind weaken our capacity to handle perceived danger increases. We become bold and our courage empowers us to dream bigger, to expand our realm of possibility, and to think and act on our own terms.  Win one battle over fear, soon many battles, and eventually the war. No longer can the insidious doubts and anxieties of the mind prevent us from standing in our truth and we become whole.
We have moved from a psychological embryo to a fully formed body-mind capable of creating and living out an authentic existence.  No one is blocking us from living a life of love, wholeness, authenticity and abundance.  Our fear is.  When will you overcome it?

Thanks for the welcome guys. I feel truly blessed to be on an open source, decentralised platform that’s not going to constantly feed me back my own biases.

Thank you @npub1s05…eyhe for setting me up on Nostr and for continually challenging my mindset to move from scarcity to abundance for all.
I’m getting there.
