  1. Past hour
  2. You got this.
  3. Yea, I know. These kids are very high in legitimacy as per my discernment. I get a sense you have very little idea of who I'm talking about also.
  4. So all this Spending make sense https://www.instagram.com/reel/DeuvZpiPXmV/?xtok=NW1yMnFiMWp1dHJ2
  5. This would flip everything upside down and be that thinking is what then creates experience.
  6. Sounds like a great schedule. You seem like you have comfortable life which is good for you. I would add some challenging activities. Also some exercise is usually healthy
  7. @Sandhu I recommend you check out Eckhart Tolle's book "the power of now". It will train you to see the world differently, if you care about expanding your understanding. Btw i haven't read the book. But i contemplated questions like: what is the present moment? What is presence ? What is the power of now? Etc... And i think the book goes in the same direction.
  8. I dont find the video about the bananas but he makes a good point in showing China is not what Westerns think of it.
  9. i lived the most spontaneous way possible for most of my life. and rn it just feels right to train myself to control my monkey mind. the idea that discipline can bring us somewhere is delusional
  10. This is a good post but i had to make a meme, it's my thing, i had to
  11. Sure, a calculator isn't thinking. So an AI, no matter how complex computations it does, isn't thinking. But if it someday reflected the capability of thinking, then you would have to say that it has a POV due to using the idea of thinking from your POV. But the thing is that its POV happens inside your POV.
  12. Extraordinary pursuits do require grinding. Many times you have to grind. For example somedays you don't feel like going to the gym. But you should go anyways. You might think I'm stuck at stage orange mindset but you require the workaholic mindset to make big at life. You can choose to stay mediocre and live in spiritual fantasy land. But If you lack serious work ethic and discipline you won't get far in spirituality domain either as it requires meticulous epistemology to not get lost. You think you can be happy doing nothing. What a fantasy!!!. Building house in the clouds.
  13. Thanks god, Lula won. I was so afraid due to those stats, I was glued to the real time stats during the electronic vote real time uploads. My neighbours were screaming like it was the world cup. 😂
  14. What tier this girl would fit? Is she Green? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DfPzOHLqZNE/?dlrf=NHp4NnVtMHg1b3Vx Sounds pretty System Thinking for me even if her aim is activism. She for sure is doing much more than me for the cause she choose.
  15. i'm sad again. for exactly two and a half days, i thought i had figured it all out, but now i am so disappointed in myself i can't even lean into the stress and the hyperactivity, the "i can fix this! i'll do it ALL, watch me, i'll go to the gym and to the orthopaedist and i'll study and i'll look pretty and and and". it all seems pointless now, so i just want some time out, some time off from this incarnation, which is impossible to get as a human being. i feel unlovable, ashamed, and so alone. most social interactions i am a part of nowadays make me feel so un-seen, and they trigger so much emotion that i then have to deal with in isolation, and nobody knows a thing about it. i spent all weekend thinking about one stupid thing i said at a lecture on Friday, and there are more examples of this.
  16. @Leo Gura they're confusing "what is existence?" with "How do i know i exist?". They think you have to answer the first one to answer the second one. The second one is self-evident but they wont accept self-evidence as evidence.
  17. Eating cake and ice cream on birthday. Why can’t it be vegetables?
  18. @Sandhu I didn't say to not work. I said her approach is robotic and mechanical, and she's most likely not going to stick to it for a long time. Like cmon micro managing every minute of your day for maximum productivity is foolish. That should be obvious. Of course you should still work, because otherwise you can't live in most cases, you need somehow to handle your life, to survive. But beyond that it isn't necessary to overwork or become a workaholic. You can have goals and still be productive. And aim at different things at different times in your life. Like instead of doing spirituality and business and fixing your dating life and working on your passion and reading books to educate yourself, and losing weight or developing muscles... All at once. You can focus on one area of your life at once, once that is handled you move on to another one, etc... life should be an exploration not a grind.
  19. Today
  20. How I think of AI is that it's a rock that we tricked into computation. Computation is not the same as experiencing thinking. Is a calculator experiencing anything when it adds 2 numbers? No.
  21. How can one achieve anything significant in life without discipline (working consistently)?
  22. Discipline is a crucial trait to develop in order to establish yourself and achieve important goals. In this era where it's very hard to stay focused it's even more important. Staying discipline to work towards your goals and live in alignment with your standards and values is joyful. @Asia P Most probably you're going to fail at this routine. because it's hard to will your way out of bad habits. You should build small habits first and work your way up. Like doing 5 pushups right after waking up and once you've enough good habits and self-efficasy things start to click. I wish somebody had told me that I do not need to be so focused on crafting perfect routines and goals and micro managing my time. but rather build habits. And small habits. Just try building habits. read books aboout it. That'lll be very helpful. Peace!
  23. @Psychonaut Careful not to straw man transidentity. No one is arguing that there are biological factors to what we call men and women. We are arguing that the categorization of these two groups as distinct is fluid and malleable. We are not denying the variation in characteristics of men and women. We're saying something more subtle: that just because there is a difference in characteristics between two groups doesn't mean the existence of the groups are ontologically fixed instead of constructed.
  24. Typical thing you should be very weary of and your BS detector should be up and fully engaged. Like with anything there might be some truth mixed in with a whole lot of other baggage. When I was a kid I made up so much insane stuff with my crazy artist mind overactive imagination.
  25. Identity doesn't change that the body is controlled by the 28-day moon cycle and no degree of mental delusion is going to change that. Unless you physically remove the eggs of the women, cut the seed tube, remove the ovaries, remove the breasts, remove every genetic trace of this being a woman. Then maybe you will have a man, or a spiritually dead woman. But you would also have to edit the DNA directly and reprogam the entire hormonal system, which you can do, just not in this 3D world (e.g. read reality).
  26. I only knew the word "philosophy" when I was young. 😆 The philosophy lessons at my university were so bad (basically memorizing some stuff that wasn't even explained properly) that I became demotivated from exploring philosophy. I intuited that the lessons were very shallow. I was unknowingly doing philosophy in my own way. How can a thought exist inside a POV that doesn't exist? Aren't you experiencing your thoughts?
