That's good. Same concept I posted in this man's thread on being antifragile vs just solid. Getting exposed on a forum for your blindspots is optimal, it's a low stakes intellectual sandbox. Then you fix it and you crush at life. Myself I test ideas here that are more radical than what I usually share and then I see how you guys react and then I post it on Instagram if it makes sense or if it's a silly take I learn from it and move on. Miguel is ambitious enough to lay out his desires in the open. That does take courage. Many people on here don't actually post anything about the desired life they want because I feel like just someone disagreeing with them is too painful to their ego.

We're gonna make it bro; somehow I actually think INTPs are one of the best types to benefit from the AI revolution since we usually understand systems; it's just the repetitively labor that's the hard part. AI agents can take care of that while we build system of leverage. It's the guise I'm currently building my business around, seems promising. Obsidian is great, what's so cool is you can link concepts together and create emergent ideas. For example you start from INTPs and productivity, then you go to MBTIs ranked by average income which I had already saved months ago. Then you go to big 5 personality and assess yourself on industriousness cuz that's what is gonna cuck your intellect. All the ideas are easy to research together and each new insight you have makes all your perspective just compound on itself which is why I seem to understand deep concepts better than most. It's not because I'm necessarily smarter but I have 45 000 thousand pages of notes on my Obsidian now and I create like 30-100 new ones daily. This guy has really good videos on Obsidian and using it to foster insights. I don't really use his exact system I find it too convoluted but I learned a lot from his way of thinking. @Ramanujan I've always hated that intellectual path. People that live in ideas are not very effective in the world. You use your ideas to build leverage to live in systems. University professors for the most part pretty ineffective people. Especially now that AI is gonna eat their lunch and can recap their lectures so being an action taker is more critical than ever. @Natasha Tori Maru What about yourself, what's your type? Are you an INFJ by chance?

Interesting, what does he teach about social circle? I genuinely have not heard him talk about it so I'm curious. I really like his levelling frame work where depending on the context you change your calibration when talking to women. So if you believe they're a bit more shy and not used to status you don't flex and you keep it grounded but if they're more the bad bitch influencer type then you go more push pull and cocky funny. I haven't really seen any other game coach talk about psychology that deeply, the guy is very smart.

Agreed, you must learn from various teachers to refine your game to it's peak potential. Some game has more potential than others though as I've already explained with the hard ceiling of cold approach. In what way?

Sorry for what you're going through man. It's not gaslighting to ask someone if they've been evaluated by a mental health professional when they say stuff that could be based on paranoid delusions. I don't want to invalidate you which is why I'm glad you contacted your local police department. This above the pay grade of anyone on this forum either way so I wish you the best of luck and don't think anything else discussed in this thread can be productive.

Bro honestly I think you're the one gaslighting her. Her point about duty of care is valid. Mods should just lock this, not much more we can do.

Training wheels might be necessary but it doesn't make them a high quality concept to build your life around.

Yes the problem with business is it's not very interesting. You find a gap in the market and then you send mass outreach to clients and you fulfill services or build products and iterate. The insight idea happens only once and the rest is emotional labor. It takes massive amounts of originality to create a business that leads to you being able to think, contemplate and have insights daily like Leo did as opposed to just doing monogamous tedious tasks all day everyday. Alex Becker recommends basically boiling down your life to 4 things, work, meditation, relationships and reading fiction. Funnily enough it's very similar to a spiritual ascetic lifestyle but you remove all the juice of life when you do this imo. I spend all day researching random topics, linking them together and working on my obsidian common place book. I only spend like 2 hours a day if that on the mechanical parts of my business. If I switched the two allocations around I would be wildly more successful than I am now but I think my path will work too as I'm building a lot of leverage through systems thinking so we'll see how it turns out in 5 years .

Haha nah fam; I will fight a man to the death if he tries to impose an upper limit to the number of the women I can have in my life. They had the right initial mindset though with letting you break traditional monogamy if you have the resources and emotional capacity to support multiple women. God himself will let me have as many wives as I want as long as I respect the rules of reality and growth that he has shaped reality with. I find the opposite of covering up my women quite hot like dating a hijabi chick and giving her the sexual freedom she craves and the financial independence necessary to live a high quality life outside of the cult. I'm a provider male I like to empower women through their integration into my life and systems. I also find Arabic women very sexy so it'll probably be how I end up meeting one of my wives day.

@Emerald Yes it's a shame what modern society does to women's sexuality. Even in the west let alone globally. A lot of women are literally scared to look at their own vaginas and accept that they are beautiful beings because femininity is so shamed. Nothing like like going down on a woman and reminding her of that fact personally as she screams your name Sexuality is one of the most misunderstood topics in humanity and especially in spiritual circles. Half of the time I am shamed even here for my sexuality and libido which leads me to connect deeply with my masculine essence, life purpose in the world and deep thirst for growth and ultimately power and agency the world.

I'm an INTP, so true. Out of the 16 types, INTPs are the 3rd worst at making money .ISFP after and INFP dead last ranked by average income. I've had to make business an intellectual endeavor and focus on the art and quest of knowledge part of it to find some success as opposed to types like ESTJs and ENTJ which are the top 2 highest average income due to lack of overthinking and high average industriousness I guess. Obsidian and Leo's video on the common place book strategy have also completely changed my life. It's allowed me to super charge my intellectualism and keep track of my knowledge and ameliorate it each day instead of falling pray to useless vague intellectualism that INTPs usually fall into. Also thank God for pickup which grounded my heavily in the real world and the validation of women otherwise I would probably literally be a basement dweller myself I would say I'm in the top 0.1% of most social INTPs because I tread my social life like a system and a science experiment as opposed to actually just socializing to recharge my energy which I don't enjoy doing.

The Quran itself preaches self-development and the well being of the community as opposed to dogma and conformity which most Islamic civilizations devolve into because of human nature being prone to egotism and authoritarianism. Allah never claimed that you submit to Islam but that you should submit to Truth and God. Which I ironically all the muslims people I know aren't really into self-development or epistemology; they mostly want cohesiveness and lack of shunning from their family and for Allah not to punish them for their weakness. My family got split apart due to embracing truth and my Dad having recently gone back to the Islamic faith due to the collapse of his psyche after my mom passed away and he has stopped speaking to my little brother, who has health issues, and will perhaps do the same to me after I come out as bisexual to him. It's literally an anti-truth based religion. I'm sure @Majed you yourself have stories of your family using Islam to shame and abuse you. Most kids of muslim families do. Feel free to share. The idea that Islam creates an idyllic, ego-less community is a historical fantasy. For over 1,400 years, Muslims have slaughtered each other over political status, leadership, and ego—most notably seen in the Sunni vs. Shia schism immediately following the Prophet's death. As soon as Muhammad died his followers separated his empire and his family and have been waging violent ego battles since then. I would say that's even lower consciousness than Christianity and Judaism and clearly lower consciousness than actualized.org principles. Although careful I will be coming aggressively for bad epistemology in all the threads I see and claim the territory of those that make arguments I can see flaws in!

@Raze I think you're being a bit too harsh. I don't think he's a troll, I think he was raised in that culture and is trying to use epistemology to figure out what is valid about his culture and which part was indoctrination. It's literally the process of self-actualization. Islam is also a cult that disencourages free thought so he's being brave by questioning their beliefs and of course someone who has been indoctrinated will go back and forth and not be sure what is real or not due to cognitive dissonance. It's unfortunately a side effect of being in a cult.

Sure most people aren't willing to take responsibility for their lives, it's easier for themselves to be told what to do. Islam is not neutral though, it usually forces it's ideology unto people. What happens when a young woman or man wants to leave and find their own way? Is that encouraged or is that shamed and often leads to psychological abuse if not physical abuse? Does it teach you to pray to God or to have a personality relationship with God and connect with it yourself? I think personally it uses the concept of God to control and suppress the society it has control over. It's peak stage blue and tries to force conformity instead of empowering the individuals that it reaches. The other day when 50 000 Muslim Moroccans invaded Ceuta, I suggested that the Morrocan Monarchy should be take responsibility for its young men being desperate enough to flee their country because the condition at home are so shitty and they should work on elevating them and providing bright futures for its young people. A Moroccan told me that it was silly to expect such a thing from their Islamic government. In my experience, as someone who half of his family is Islamic, it's an ideology that encourages submission(literally the name) over growth and doesn't just suggest it's principles unto others but does so through shame at best and usually violent domination. It's a very cringe ideology and I think the sooner the world is rid of it; the better. It has some good general principles like mutual reliance and community but I think that's almost accidental and due to macroeconomics more than Islamic principles or the powerful Islamic leaders in the world pushing that view. Hopefully you're able to take the good from it and leave the bad out; that's not a possibility for a lot of people stuck in that cult.

Sure that's what I meant. I think 20% of dating is figuring out the unique wants and needs of each person. 80% of it is pretty standard. Be a man that offers value, that communicates well, has good logistics, looksmaxxes properly, is fun to be around and can connect emotionally while being safe to be around. The more I level up the more I've experienced individual women being into me to percentage of women being into me. Doesn't mean that there aren't a lack of alignment in our lives that would make us dating difficult, I don't claim to have maxed out what I talked about. I would say though at my peak something like 25% of women are into me and super receptive and when I day game about that amount to giving me instagrams and then 30% of those would turn into dates and I would fuck like 50% of first dates when I did it often and had momentum. Had this exact conversation with one of my clients yesterday. He's not comfortable being man to woman and leading interactions yet so he chit chats with women to build rapport instead of actually communicating properly which is building only the basic rapport then asking them out that same week. He met this girl on IG who's into kpop and he tried to build rapport over both liking another man who's cooler than him, it's not 100% a deal breaker but its a unnecessary move that kills all sexual tension.
