Yes, thanks for sharing this. I don't know Owen personally, but this rings true. Over-compensating for autism and looks makes sense.

I train myself by articulating and explaining concepts to myself in my own head. I'm talking to myself all the time, explaining ideas to myself. So by the time I explain it to you, it's effortless. You need to deep understand whatever topic you are talking about. I don't focus on how to speak. Focus on understanding. Try explaining a topic you know extremely well already. Like, explain how a car works to a child.

Yeah, I get it. These toxic online cultures rot minds by the millions. It's sad.

Successful and attractive people often don't understand what actually generates their success. They have fantasies about the causal factors in their success. The ego loves to attribute success to stuff it believes or thinks, when success is usually structural. A Hollywood actor might thinks she is successful due to her personality and skill, when really it's just her looks and family connections. Even spiritual teachers do this. Spiritual teachers don't understand how much genetics made their success. They love to act like self-inquiry got them there. Get the fuck outta here -- dawg! I know what really caused your success. The problem is that the structural factors of success and attractiveness cannot be easily sold to audiences. The guru needs something easy to sell. Some easy technique to look like a model or attain enlightenment. You can't sell genetics. That's why it's priceless.

This is a good point. Yes, steroids definitely work. But he made himself sterile already, which is insane. The stuff that works is dangerous and costly to health. But still, no amount of steroids gave him his face, hair, height. That's all genetic. I can take steroids and it won't make me look like him. Taking steroids is not going to help me get more girls. It is a meaningless difference. Clavicular could gain 30 pounds of fat and he would still get lots of girls. Girls are not seeing his muscles when they get attracted to him.

No problem. Discuss away.

Mods are crucial. Can't run a forum by myself.

@eTorro Dude, all you need is just practice talking to a camera. It takes a lot of practice. Mistakes are okay. Just do it with mistakes. You will improve quickly. Don't ask how. Just talk.

You are talking about truth! That is God.

Ultimately they are not true because only God is true. If you think God is just nothing, you are deeply mistaken.

How much have you practiced? People on TV have tons of practice. You can't compare yourself to them. Do you have brain fog? That might need a physiological solution.

Where did I say it doesn't end well? The work is difficult. But you already knew that. And I am hardcore. Most of y'all don't need to do what I do. I have a much higher standard to meet as a teacher that you don't need to reach as a civilian. I have to know this material better than anyone on the planet. So I do some hardcore things to reach that which you guys don't need to do.

@Ramasta9 But the Lizard!

Not sure what you mean.

I have laid out a lot. But yes. Books and courses are planned.

Yes, over ten years, I did post a few dozen posts that I regret and wish I could take back. 24/7/365 access to an online platform is dangerous because state and mood fuctuates.

Attractive people tend to be more spoiled, men and women both, since they can get away with worse behavior. Of course not all.

Discuss this topic without personal attacks please.

Don't do these attacks. Keep the discussion respectful.

Awakening. Awakening is not an explanation and it is more fundamental than knowledge. Awakening is Truth itself.

Do whatever deluded thing you want. But is it good for you?

No. It's a lose metaphore. It gets very tricky because illusion is reality. It's just like a dream. The people in your dream are real, until you wake up. They are real relative to inside the dream, but unreal relative to outside the dream. Other is relatively real. Not absolutely real. Your dreams are relatively real.

@Breakingthewall That was a war. Force is needed there to stop fighting. Torture is never necessary. Hate is also not necessary.

Many girls will be attracted to him but he will turn many off with his weird personality and verbals. Hard to say. If he can keep himself from saying creepy cringe shit then his looks will take him far. The best game for him would be to keep his mouth shut and just smile. The more he talks the less attractive he gets. Many guys in pickup have above-average looks and into personal development.
