  1. Probably all the retreat videos! Leaving On 30-Day Solo Retreat and the video made after his return, Becoming God - Insights From 13 Back-to-Back Awakenings I'm Leaving To Pursue Awakening & Healing - March 2020 and the return video, Outrageous Experiments In Consciousness - 30 Awakenings In 30 Days Leo's Solo Meditation Retreat - 90 Hours Of Nonstop Meditation In The Forest had a good vibe to it as well. Going Buddha - 30 Day Meditation Challenge Enlightenment Experience Explanation & Key Lessons The energy I get from these videos is how I want my life to feel all the time, calm and at peace with the truth you've discovered. Absolutely profound videos. They also inspired me to do a retreat myself one day.
  2. Creativity. Creating great things and experiencing other people's creations is my greatest joy in life.
  3. This element of Spiral Dynamics has always challenged me. What is it that defines your stage the most: what stage you most embody or what stage you most represent? I know plenty of people who are very Stage Orange, but when there's a situation that might slight a Stage Red person or idea for the sake of Stage Orange, they will always jump to defend Red, but never vice versa. For example, despite being Orange, they might sympathize more with a drug kingpin than a CEO, because they see the CEO as a manipulative conman while they see the kingpin as a more honest hustler and strong person. Or they might be an independent, materialist businessman themselves but find more honor in being a priest, despite the fact that they can acknowledge all the limitations of Stage Blue, they view it as higher than themselves and will rush to defend the corruption of the Church before defending a corrupt company? So if someone embodies Stage Orange, but when it comes down to it, will rep Stage Red, does that make them Stage Red at heart?
  4. I see it as pop psychology, a fun tool that can perhaps help you learn more about yourself but human beings simply cannot be put into 16 neat little boxes.
  5. For me it's pretty simple, I set aside 3 basic time slots in my day: WORK: To make money day to day, takes up 25-50% of the day PLAY: My personal reward after work. Usually playing music, binge watching and/or hanging out with friends PURPOSE: I spend the last 3-4 hours of my day really focusing in on personal development, mental/physical health, being spiritual, working towards my purpose, and building my dreams. This works great for me.
  6. It doesn't matter that nothing matters, because we're all there is. Even if the sun consumes the Earth one day and everything that was ever built was lost, don't you want to enjoy it while it's still here? This world is your playground.
  7. Listen to a minute or two of the video, then pause and ask yourself "If I could sum up what he just said in my own words, in one sentence, what would I type?". Then just do that over and over again and you've summarized a video.
  8. @Harlen Kelly So they won't get vaccinated as a protest towards Biden?
  9. @Harlen Kelly I am surrounded by them and I can assure you, they are not.
  10. More like 2-4%, not all Trump supporters or right wingers are that stupid.
  11. @Thought Art Ah, I just realized you were responding to the original guy
  12. @Thought Art Wait, you wouldn't want to meet me at a bar? I never said I was gonna report anyone.
  13. Let's be honest, you start talking about weird shit like that, someone is going to report you. Save that kind of stuff for close friends.
  14. Good Will Hunting | 'Your Move Chief' (HD) - Matt Damon, Robin Williams | MIRAMAX
  15. That's disgusting but they probably think it's funny and it makes them laugh. At someone else's expense but still it's good for their selfishness. Integrating this is peanuts compared to coming to terms with a serial killer or something...
  16. Replace it with something healthy. Instead of being hooked on gambling, replace that time with reading.
  17. @LordFall Kinda off topic but I can't help but be a bit food snobby for a moment...there is such a thing as a gourmet burger. Plenty of chefs are famous for their burgers, and just because something's not healthy or green doesn't mean it's not quality food. A burger with quality beef, lettuce and veggies is not necessarily a "child's meal".
  18. Ya'll might want to write down the artist and name to the song as well like @Pacific Sage did if/when these links go down
  19. @gettoefl I did watch it but I'm still confused about this point
  20. @Jakuchu Controlling the choices is irrelevant if I can't control the consequences. Like, let's say I want to be a stunt driver and be able to do any stunt I want without crashing my car. In theory, I have the free will to do any stunt I want. But I know darn well that if I fuck up my maneuver I could die. So therefore, I have free will to the extent of the maneuvers I have the skill to do that won't kill me.
  21. @Jakuchu Exactly, if I want to stay healthy, I no longer have the free will to eat what I want.
  22. Awesome advice. Only' thing I'll comment on is this: After making a post, just get away from the computer for a while. Don't avoid posting just because you/re anxious about replies, that'll make you more anxious.
  23. @TheSomeBody haha! Yeah, masturbation is healthy as long as you keep it to once a day/every other day.
  24. It seems every company wants someone who's already had years of experience and no one's willing to train anymore. Job sites are flooded with people who are more experienced than you. Interview questions are designed to make you look bad (what is your greatest weakness?, specific personality tests, etc.). Overall, connections seem more important than skills, who you know is more important than what you know. How is a young person (18-25) supposed to get a job these days?
