Is deconstructioning rationality part 3 still coming?
-
Just woke up, it's 06:55, here's the update: -0.3kg (-0.7kg in 3 days) sleep 7 hours regular schedule [finally fixed] no addiction relapses [3/90] 1900 calories, 170g protein 10k steps 40m pull workout, 22m run 45m read 45m study 20m meditation I missed yoga didn't work much Some insights: I'm wasting many minutes / hours in between tasks, it's an issue of procrastionation, I have to fix this somehow. An idea: I'll log the starting time of a task, and write it here with the updates so I feel more accountable to myself and it will be more apparent ho much time I waste. Bringing that to an awareness. I have to follow up meditation with pranayamas in the morning, if I postpone it for later that day, I'll probably won't do it. Morning hours are extra precious to make most of them. If I do everything on time with minimal distractions, I'll have much more free time in the evening to just relax and enjoy myself. One of the snickiest distractions for me is my curiosity. I've so many diverse interests (history, AI, technologies, spirituality, philosophy, creativity, relationships, etc etc) I have like 20 youtube video tabs open at any given time on different things podcasts, interviews, courses, etc, I'm so curious, I read books on diverse topics, but the problem is that I get so excited on all these that I might skip work (which I'm already fed up with), or some task that requires mental resistance. So I have to somehow balance my curiosity and training.

Perhaps the collapse has already occurred? Am I merely blind to it? Is what I claim to be a "functioning mind" actually quite the opposite?
-
How much of this can the Human Mind even sustain? You would think at this point it would completely obliterate itself. How has it not torn itself to shreds? Ripped into smithereens? It is here that arises yet another contradiction: through all of its contradictory contradictions the mind seems to somehow still function.
-
The previous statements are in direct contradiction to an even earlier one. My mind is like an amusement park full of contradiction after contradiction. Each and every contradiction is both in contradiction with each other and itself.

The forum used to be like this, it used to have this view, then something very wrong happened. It was a slow change that culminated with the kicking of @Nahm. The forum was never the same after that. That was the best time, all the best people and conversations were had. Now it's a forum of suck-ups and outcasts.

Bumping this in case anyone missed it

I am aware of the theory. The music sorta ruins this clip.

No. I've been planning one but never released.

Although I do not know exactly what the hide function does. Is it hidden for good for everyone? Is it hidden just for me? Is it hidden for all but mods and the admin?

Hey guys, I flew in from Spain and I'm on the East Coast for one more week. If anyone's around Philadelphia or NY area and wants to meet up, let me know. Disclaimer: This is not affiliated with Leo or Actualized.org . It's just an casual meetup among forum members. Also note that organizing meetups is generally not allowed for many reasons, so let's do our best to keep it civil

I think I would like to go through my "Self-Actualization Journal" and Utilize the Hide Function to quote unquote "trim out the fat" I become very unhappy with some of the things that I have said. And they appear to be a large pile of what certain beetles may love to construct a ball out of.

Well, first of all, I found out that I have some of all of the neurodivergencies over the sun. This was a long process and at the beginning I was also aware of the concept but did not identify with it. I didn't even know it was possible not to know. This knowledge has an incredible impact on my life and I never had the realization that I have "overdiagnosed" myself. I have only ever had the experience of realizing that I have underdiagnosed myself. I'm still learning about the exact peculiarities of my brain. So yes, I would also have lost my mind. Attacking my argument is valid though. I am admitting that it is not a proof of anything. However, my goal is not to prove anything, but rather maybe provide some new perspective on the interpretation of experiences you might relate to in some way.

Wait, but creativity isn't the opposite of restraint? @Cred Constrain often increases creativity. Limitation. What about architecture, engineering, music composition? These require planning, revision, iteration, delayed gratification. In my experience original work comes from depth + refinement. Unless you are using you terms in a nuanced way that requires more elaboration? I might be misunderstanding your points - impulsivity does not equal creativity. Low impulsivity does not equal zero or low creativity. For myself creativity is a composite of things akin to divergent thinking, pattern recombination, cognitive flexibility, working memory, persistence etc. @Leo Gura Do we have a video on creativity? Man I will be ASHAMED if there is one and I missed it >.<

Oppositionless replied to JoshB's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@JoshB Second this. And Tai chi!! Your meditation might not have changed your state very much. Both of these practices work the subtle energies. Kriya cultivates Yang and Tai chi or qigong cultivate Yin. BTW there's some confusion with this word Kriya. There is Kriya yoga, and Kundalini Kriyas. They're different, but probably both are good, but I've only done Kriya yoga. Kriya yoga is a seated technique, Kundalini kriya is more active! -
This. When it's positive you're just a genius.

They want nothing that's why they get to be 'follower'. If you wanted something you would do anything to get it.

You're divergent Leo lmao. The fact you try to avoid it. Is also part of the fun. Man watch again your 'awakening live' and tell us you just a normie. I think you need to have this level of delusions to keep doing your video. The fact you believe you can teach people things. When it's only you weaving again and again the tapestry of your mind. No one is going to awaken from listening anyone, or maybe they will. Ultimately at the highest understanding of how god work, it's all 8th dimensional ( things that interact without our awareness ) Also your video was very repetitive and way too 'mindy' and meta, it would be more fun if you added some real texture to it. One of your best video is the smoothie. Think it's time you stop the meta and start vlogging to show us some real practice that you do. Whatever that is, like hell today I m gonna Livestream how I m working on this oblivion mod. You can stay meta, but that's what I mean by texture. Awakening live is a really funny and authentic video. When I realized I wasn't really listening to philosophy but to someone who just like telling what goes through his mind, awakening !!!

Some people are genuinely ugly, but most of the people I vibe with are just anxious and a little (or a lot) sad.
-
And people that are non impulsive ? it is harder for them to do what they want ?
-
Damn I m definitely like this. At a sick point though. I would sacrifice everything to focus on my impulse. My life proved it. Tell us more. I also take all informations in and that's why I filter all my environment at the core. Always knew I was a genetic genius only because of my downsides being also my upsides.
