Leo’s advice on this thread is gold Id take it if I were you. I was a 21 year old virgin, had sex for the first time after fumbling multiple pulls to my own and other girls apartments. I went out every single day for months at a time, faced severe sleep deprivation, approached girls on weeknights at 8pm and at times was mistaken for a homeless begger. I have a thread on losing my virginity from a few years ago. I lived with my main wing who was a hard cases and worked almost as hard as me at dating with no success, years on and they’re still a virgin. Fundamentally they needed to ground themselves and be more honest. Honest that they were sloppy with their fashion, had psychotic views of women and fundamentally didn’t respect them, was closed minded to things like therapy and inner work, were addicted to their phone, didn’t go out that much and couldn’t hold a normal conversation with a girl without trying to game or manipulate her in some way. After tireless attempts to coach and at times strong arm my friend into pulling himself together I realised he needed time and a series of hard reality checks to get his act together.

What country are you in? if I could go back in time I would have dropped out of school, completed a solar electrician apprenticeship. Read a book a week, socialised with positive peer groups, saw a therapist regularly, took leave from work when possible to do personal development activities like holotropic breathwork retreats, then once fully qualified be a self-employed electrician and financially backed my life purpose (music). Do lots of business seminars that I would could claim on tax. Ideally I’d go take my trade van to an under serviced location for 6 months, work really hard & make bank, then make music for the other half of the year. Possible with business acumen and strategy. this journey is really personal and your values are also going to change with life experience, so you you’ve got to make the call for yourself. If there’s a 1% chance you’ll need uni for your LP I’d say stick it out and at the end of school you’ll be what 18, 19? Not a waste of time if it ends up contributing to you let LP.

Locking this - I’m not discounting the possibility that you have been abused, but advise you should present such evidence and claims to Leo in a PM, as I believe this post breaches guidelines in the following ways: Ganging up on other members, starting factions that splinter the community. Spreading rumors and gossip. Attempts to undermine or damage Actualized.org, staff, or employees.

It is against community guidelines to post whilst intoxicated

I find with productivity I know what I need to do. It’s as simple as doing it or not doing it. Right now I’m naked on my bed writing on a forum - relative to my LP I’m not doing it, that doesn’t mean I haven’t got the rest of today to make it happen. check that your expectations of motivation are grounded in reality - what’s the vision here? You’re oosing with energy and inspiration everyday all the time? LP I about creativity and finishing projects. I didn’t see that as part of your strategy (apologies if I missed it) - remember the small wins part of the LP course. The idea is to get you into the momentum of building something through pure initiative, college or psychedelics are both not going to help you in this regard. Small wins: - starting a blog and posting weekly - writing a 20 page book - publishing a short audiobook etc. Physical achievements with deadlines. godspeed

I was working really hard today and very busy, on the move. Unlike me as I usually surf daily which leaves me with “blue mind” and often detaches me from work. (Background: I did a 1.2g mushroom trip a few days ago, and had a therapist help me integrate it.) Whilst I was feeling ungrounded, I went and jumped in the ocean which brought me back to earth and out of my head, I had been ruminating on my social status, and scheming all day about how I was going to position myself to get more sexual partners (just thoughts haha). I’ve been getting this urge lately to abandon my housemates and move in with only “conscious” people in a different house (I’m smiling writing this haha). I have a CBT therapist recently call me out on these thoughts gently, and I admitted that I believe I was superior to others in my social circle because I’m “more ambitious”. I was thinking “who most emulates who I want to be?”, and it’s probably this sexy, hippie musician from my local area, my next question was “what is he thinking right this second?”; I think this question allowed me to let go of something, because existentially I don’t know this person. It takes the hype out of fame for me which I get swept away by, not that it’s all bad but sometimes I get desperate. Also people shit on talk therapy a bit but I find it really grounding, that famous person insight is sometimes hard for me to remember, I recall conversations I have in therapy and follow their trail to grounding.

Likely because you’re addicted to your phone and haven’t studied marketing. Andrew and Tristan are polarising figures who create content around finance, sex and health. All of which are needs you may not have met, and keep you hooked with controversy, humour and drama. leo begun Actualized.org talking about money, sex and health. This wasn’t an accident

I've seen self amusement work really well on message

my strategy is trying to build skills that are high ticket, but will also propel your life purpose. Leo talks about smooth transitions in the LP course, is there a skill that you yourself need in you LP niche that you could develop and sell to other businesses? examples not intended to bias you: - perhaps you need a high speed landing page to get permaculture clients, you could go really deep on building functional websites and sell this service as a freelancer - perhaps people in your niche want to start making high quality digital products but don't have the technical skills to do it themselves. You could learn production and film and then subcontract the funnel to a digital marketer on Upwork.

@Leo Gura Ignore my PM if you see this. I want to understand how you demonise chasing money and sex as it will corrupt the mind, but these are human needs and you have already benefited from them. And also what are the alternatives?

Against community guidelines. Edit: apologies I initially misinterpreted the topic of this thread, thought it was a pro-Blackpill rant.
