Hey brother Top down: How much money do you want to make for your ideal lifestyle? How much time do you want to have each day, month, year, for rest, love, and self growth? How many hours do you have left each week after that? How much do you need to make per hour? How much money is "enough"? What can you "live" with? If you have what you need, then build from there. Diversify how you earn an income so that it's not all time for money. Also - what are you doing? Are you passionate about it? If the service is empowering and meaningful it will give you more energy. One thing I would also consider is taking up qi gong, functional patterns training, neigong, and meditation. By developing the fascia, integration of the tissues, energetic system, and managing the contents of mind, the qualities that arise in the mind which are draining, you'll find your energy start to increase dramatically. Endless ways to tackle energy. But sometimes you just need to invest a good amount of time into the cultivation of energy. Sometimes you need a meaningful mission, Sometimes you need to be ruthless with your non-negotiables. Ie. I am going to makes sure I have enough rest each week so i show up energized, even if it pisses off my clients. In my own life - i prioritize energy rather than production. I was the opposite at one point. When scheduling your projects - makes sure you have a buffer, a week in between every once in awhile - and do what do you want. Sometimes 2 weeks. You don't need to work all weeks of the year, and if you're charging 35-50%-70% gross profit, and getting leads which convert, you should have good money coming in that can afford that. But if your expenses are too high and it's keeping you chained to the kind of working lifestyle you currently have, then you'll need to reduce your expenses so you can work less.

yes that's it.

Becoming an attractive person is the best way. Hormonally, mentally, emotionally, intentionality, and in how you communicate. Understanding what causes attraction and what maintains it. How to listen and how to be a good communicator. If you regulate yourself, strengthen yourself, empower yourself, and become an uplifting and pleasant person to be around, then you'll attract good quality people in your life. I think this is the way to develop a good life. Strive for the causes rather than the outcomes you want. Sure you can be good at pick up , but if your shitty internally, you're going to pick up someone who is going to match that, or you're going to be a real pain in the ass for someone else, because you got someone emotionally attached to your soggy being.

He doesn't have to say it. It's just what happens by default when you are self-deceived that trauma is the root of all problems.

It's difficult to talk about gender dynamics in mixed-sex company in general. Everyone's biases and agenda comes out.

But even this isn't the truth, despite the backpedaling. Not all humans are shallow.

Btw. extradition is not following any convictions. Just the fact that he is due for trial in the UK forces extradition already. I’m sure he will release a dope course about prison masculinity once he gets out we’ll have to be patient though.

@Yimpa thanks for your unique perspective 😁 I was going to tag here for your experience but I didnt want to drag you into a weird shit fight !

Immer dieser Leo muss mit allem recht haben ey, manchmal bin ich sauer! I am glad I apologized, but holy cow, survival mixed with spirituality is powerful, I still wonder, how far this will go, especially as I do access, cosmic knowledge erbärmliche Polzei lying lying for power

@Miguel1 @Alexop cuddle puddle Mistakes happen. It's been great watching how some users have grown - me too. This spot of the internet really helped me understand the unique challenges men face. Lots of my biggest areas of growth were seeing through my own bias in this arena.
-
@Natasha Tori Maru we love you ❤️ you do a great job! We just try to figure out this complicated subject, and sometimes we fail at it. It is the one subject the almost nobody gets it right. Nether the conservatives nor the progressives. I am a progressive, but when I see how miserably progressives fail at this subject, at building good men and implicitly hurting women, I get mad.
-
I didn’t meant it sexist at all. Men are shallow. Women are shallow. Humans are shallow. None of those statements are sexists. Because I was talking about women and that is why I said women. At the end saying humans are shallow can be hurtful to some people. So in that case we would have to sacrifice truth for the sake of some people’s emotions. And there are always some butt hurt people around. Nobody’s emotions should be top priority.

I believe it's likely that rich people will find a way to live longer eventually. Just not any time soon. Something like 150-200 maybe. The market for immortality is huge. The motivation and funds are there.

It’s the same struggle Emerald and Etheral Cat went through here, and probably many other female members. Also probably the reason they all left. Back then I was still too biased to see, and also not an active member yet to be commenting. But now, I rather not see the same mistake being repeated, especially as you are one of the higher quality posters here. It seems Leo has learned his lesson and was able to take the feedback properly based on his responses here. Much love.

Lately, I’ve been working very hard, and the tiredness is starting to catch up with me. When you work a 9-to-5, you clock in and clock out, that’s it. But when you’re running your own business, you have to motivate yourself every single day. Like, damn... every single DAY! Every single day you have to go out there and get it. I think most people never talk about this. They talk about the results, but rarely about the hard work required to achieve those results or how little energy you have left at the end of it. It’s not like you can just relax and do your work slowly. You have to grind, hustle, use your brain, analyze, and if your work involves talking to people, you have to bring good energy too etc. It all adds up. Sometimes I wonder if it’s too much. Maybe I should go back to a 9-to-5, but I hate the idea of a 9-to-5 so much. I definitely need to work on managing my energy because it’s catching up with me. Whenever I take a rest day, I realize just how much rest I’ve been missing. Hopefully, this is just part of the process and things will become a bit more stable over time. Hard work is necessary, but at some point, it has to evolve into something sustainable for the long term. Otherwise, I honestly don’t know how long I can keep going. Any entrepreneurs here? How do you deal with this?

This is a false equivalency. You can't conflate things like this, Hitler decided that most of mankind was undesirables and worth sacrificing to reach his goals. You're now comparing this to a dude running a science experience in a petri dish to help all of us live longer and cure the diseases that are ruining our lives. If you have to rely on extreme reductionism to make your points I don't think they're good points. You can die on your own terms nobody is forcing you not to. We're talking about extending human life time infinitely, if you don't enjoy our post scarcity future then I wouldn't personally vote for stopping you to end yourself if that's what you want. You are just arguing against medical research at the current moment though.

I appreciate this being raised. Very, very much appreciate it. Respect to Leo, the mods and all my fellow dudes who treat me as an equal ❤️🔥 It's sort of weird being TOLD how I work. How I am. With little platform to ask me questions about women and how they work. I am often, as a woman, painting as being unconscious to myself 🥹 very odd
-
That makes sense. I think there is a tendency to downplay our self-deceptions and biases towards sex because it is ”such a low function” compared to the serious work - but that’s precisely the danger. Thank you for your patience and compassion.
-
100% I think this sex is possibly one of the most difficult and challenging topics to approach earnestly. But yeah this is also why I take users in good faith, unless there is a real systemic repeated pattern of uncharitable dialogue.
-
@Natasha Tori Maru Yes, hence I brought this up to give it integrity. If this community wasn’t about truth, then I wouldn’t care as it would be very male biased. But I hold us to a higher standard, because truth is one of our top values here.

@Miguel1 @Alexop what you raise is part of the type of rhetoric around women that Leo uses that, when read in isolation, can appear quite damning. A statement might be made that is quite absolute 'Women operate purely via emotions, and will just follow their emotions' (just an example) in one post. Some back and forth might ensue and only then is nuance added when there is pushback, or extensive questions. Most people don't read entire threads. I think with Leo (I cannot be sure) he dives for the closest statement to the total truth of the matter in simple easy soundbites. But without context the meaning can be totally different - and these topics are some of the most nuanced there are. I get that women will be spoken about in an isolated way especially regarding viewing through the lense of the pickup paradigm. But most of the qualities that are denigrated are assigned to women here - when it's usually very loosely tied to sex and there is little evidence to suggest as such. Biology has an impact for sure, but conditioning is a large factor. Women and men make decisions based on emotions. It's not women more. It's human. If you look into studies regarding what happens to people who lose their feelings/emotional centres of the brain, it is shown they cannot make the simplest of decisions because our entire value and preference system is from the emotional centre. Antonio DiMaggio's work showcases this. Painting women as purely emotional and making decisions based on 'irrationally' framed emotions is just one common talking point perpetuated on these forums. In reality all humans make decisions based on emotions that form values and preferences. The veneer of rationally is only applied to men in these conversations - often through rationalising an emotional decision and bypassing the emotional root entirely. So I don't think it's often intentionally spoken about this way. It can be entirely unconscious. I give the benefit of the doubt always. And these conversations are usually in the context of attraction - easy to misunderstand what is being said and apply it to women in all arenas! When women do choose with rationality it is often painted in a negative manner regarding standards. While this can be negative when taken too far, it is consistently framed this way. The qualities attributes to women are spoken of in a lowly, less than manner. I'm trying to think how often I see women spoken of with a lot of esteem or celebrated for their traits here. It does happen - there are a few members who are so consistently lovely about it. But it is a minority. Regarding AION's comments - that is a systemic, contextual issue arising from belief systems based on cognitive bias. I never face any sort of issues like this in real life. I believe it is a chronic online issue with individuals when attempting to rationalise everything down to a simple explanation. And also - sorry to say it, but there is a level of conformity surrounding this topic on these forums. I don't think humans can be understood through rationality as easily as is painted. Overall I accept everyone is moving through different stages of life and understanding. And let's be frank, this forum is mostly male dominated. I think some level of unconscious sexism is just going to happen. And that's cool, I accept it

Enlightenment is the openess to what reality is, not a realization about what reality is. You don't need to die or appear like so special and mystic. From a logical perspective, it's extremely simple: What reality is is the fact of being. But being totally open to it is not so simple because the system that a human is is programmed by evolution to close. the fact of being is not an entity, it has no form or limits, it's not exactly infinite, it's unlimited, if we want to express proper concepts . But it's everything, if you are open to it, nothing else is lack. But you can't be totally open to it always, and who wants that? We are humans, then let's play deep. Enlightenment is essential to play as deep as being human deserves. -
Yes, as you said, Leo throws a lot of these short comments confidently that comes across as ”it’s simple as this, period” -feeling - especially in the ’what attracts women’ space. Which is understandable, when the women here feel like they are being devalued. It’s almost like someone said that Leo has gone mad very confidently. Has he? Yes he has by any normal mind’s standard. But that's just the half truth. By the standards of what we do here, he has turned sane! More conscious.

Most dissociate; tune in and the signal will stay as much as you can discern the groundedness to do so. Be careful about the advice you get on here, its from people who dissociate a lot, the forum is presently poorly managed.. Please put yourself first.
-
Good one. I somehow get it but it still is a problem. When he comes with that claim, he might have a very nuanced take on it. But It is a problem because when another guy who trusts him sees that short comment, he will take it as it is, black and white, without the hidden nuances. And he will parrot it further ideologically, dealing damage.
