The Fool, What Beginnings Actually Ask of Us. AI-Generated.
The Fool is card zero. Not card one. Zero. That number is the first thing about The Fool that changed how I see beginnings. Zero isn't a starting point on a numbered scale. It's the moment before the scale begins. The space where something exists but hasn't taken form yet.

Mental health advice to help cope with trauma. Content Warning.
Mental illness can be very tough, especially trauma. When dealing with trauma we simply don't acknowledge that we are survivors to some of the most horrific things in life. We, as humans, can adapt to anything. We are built in such a way that we can develope the coping skills necessary to function through daily life and the problems we face. We learn as we go along how to avoid horrific situations and how to deal with it i the need should arise where we are faced with a tough situation.

The Zeigarnik Effect: Why Unfinished Things Haunt the Mind
Have you ever noticed how an unfinished task can linger in your mind for days, while completed tasks are quickly forgotten? A half-written email, an unresolved argument, an abandoned project, or a book left unfinished often seem to occupy far more mental energy than things we have already completed. This phenomenon is known as the Zeigarnik Effect, a fascinating subcategory of cognitive psychology that explores how the psyche responds to incompleteness.

I Thought It Was Me
For a long time I thought something was wrong with me. It wasn’t some big thing I could just describe to anyone. It sat there in the background, with this ongoing feeling like I didn’t have what other people seemed to carry around so easily. I figured maybe I came off as too sensitive, hard to deal with. Or that I wanted more from situations than made sense and maybe that I fell short in spots I couldn’t see but everyone else picked up on right away.

When The Cheese Moves: Protecting Your Mental Health During Times Of Change & Uncertainty
If you have ever studied business at tertiary level, you might be familiar with a book called Who Moved My Cheese by Spencer Johnson. You would be forgiven for thinking that the author would be psychic, as this book (and hence the metaphor of your cheese being moved) is heavily, unfairly, and relatably relevant today as it has ever been. Change is, and has always been constant. In these current times of economic and geopolitical change - uncertainty, tension and perhaps some pleasant surprises in the right direction means that the cheese is constantly being moved. The mouse has to expend more time and energy to find that displaced cheese in ensuring that satiety levels are met - same with us humans, as frustrating or as enlightening as that is. (Think of some other gourmet food if you don't like cheese for whatever reason.)
