She will break up with him instantly, you cannot challenge people like that. Its possible it will flip the narrative as she will put herself in a position to start pleasing him. But its temporary at best.

A foundation in maturity is the prerequisite. - Take responsibility, not blame others. A mature person voluntarily takes it on himself, not waiting for the suffering and pain to prompt him to take responsibility. - Understand that you can act like a child, but consciously choose not to. - Do what needs to be done on time instead of procrastinating, which requires discipline. - Taking on emotionally difficult things, doing difficult things. A good life involves a lot of emotionally difficult tasks. - Work ethic: Don't look for shortcuts, be willing to work at embodying and realizing your highest values. - Understanding that this work develops your personality, builds character. - A mature person understands that a good life does not come easily. - It is worthy to face life's challenges rather than avoid them. - Self-control. The ability not to get lost in one's emotions. Maintain consistency, fluidity, calmness, and intention. - Emotional mastery. - Nonreactivity, not triggering too easily from what other people say and do - Patience. - Refusing to use emotional manipulation techniques: blaming, scapegoating, gaslighting, denial, insulting, triggering, losing one's temper, projecting, rationalizing. - A mature person does not demonize, distort, or substitute talking points. - Does not exploit. - Does not manipulate people. - Does not deceive or lie. - Looks the truth in the eye and realizes the importance of it throughout life. - Being mature means being firmly rooted in reality rather than wishful thinking and getting lost in fantasy. - A mature person's worldview and conception of reality is much truer and closer to life itself than an immature one. - Maturity is associated with a deep understanding of situations, a desire to break through illusions. - A mature person values honesty, truth/truth. - Epistemological humility (critically examines one's ontological attitudes, beliefs and belief systems, preconceptions and assumptions, and is willing to change or modify them) and not-knowing. The mature person realizes that he knows far less than he thinks he does. - The mature person is able to see beyond their own perspective and is able to see from the perspective of others. The immature person is too selfish for that and is lost in their preconceptions. - Respects the sovereignty/independence of others. Understands that everyone is a sovereign individual: does not try to control others, does not impose his or her point of view, his or her agency, does not try to force everyone to live the way he or she lives. Understands and appreciates that everyone has their own unique needs, values, strengths, weaknesses, personality types, and can live their own unique way. - The ability to compromise. - The ability to be flexible and change one's opinion, point of view. - A mature person values and cares about their health. Ready to make sacrifices and make efforts for it. - Maturity implies a great deal of life experience. - Maturity is the ability to anticipate problems and deal with them in advance before things get out of hand - It is the ability to make long-term decisions based on sound principles. - Maturity is long-term thinking. - Admitting and taking responsibility for your mistakes. - The ability to apologize. - The ability to accept criticism. The mature person is grateful that someone pointed out an unpleasant truth to them; they understand that the truth is more important than temporary emotional difficulties. The immature person becomes irritated, frustrated, resentful, "kills the messenger," can't handle the truth, and gets lost in their bubble. - Maturity is acting according to a clear understanding of values - It is a principled pursuit of wholeness - It is self-direction, the ability to lead oneself rather than conforming and simply following the crowd and doing what everyone else is doing. - To be non-ideological, open-minded, non-conformist. - Independently make sense of things, based on primary principles. - A mature person knows how to take care of themselves. An immature person needs mature people to take care of him or her. - Maturity is the understanding that your words and actions serve as a role model for others. Immature behavior in the family, workplace, country, etc. disposes the rest of the group to do so. - A mature person takes responsibility to be a good role model for others. - Maturity is the ability to communicate consciously to resolve disputes and conflicts without the use of force. - The ability to truly listen. - The ability to let go and surrender, to accept things as they are. - Maturity is wisdom. - It is consciousness and intelligence. - It is selflessness. -
That doesn't work for people at green or higher, soulless work is very hard to do. Most highly successful business men can sell garbage to the poor and all they see is self-achievement. Often the things that make the most money are low consciousness behavior and to be successful at business thats years of hard work, to sustain that hard work you need intrinsic motivation for what your doing and higher value system arent as well adapted to do that in this financial system. Its like starting a marketing company, the only people who can spend years of there life building that only care about narrow view of personal achievement,

Spirituality is a way of being, there is endless exploration sober to do, question about the world and insights to acquire. Psychedelics will speed up this process of self-inquiry but im only warning that for many who come to this site they where not ready for the Truth and the common pattern is they all did Psychedelics to young <25. The younger you are the less likely it will benefit you to do psychedelics as your daily experiences are still new and interesting. A 5-20 year old is having a powerful trip sober, they dont need assistance. For many doing spirituality young means sacrificing finances, because it can kill all motivation to make money. Self-development is way more useful when your young then Absolute Truth seeking. Random test: Do you often find yourself blaming others for something that happened to you? Are you taking Full responsibility for your life and experiences? How strongly do you like and dislike things? How long do your emotions stick and how efficient are you at processing your emotions? (Ex: Does something undesirable happen and you get stuck in a bad mood all day or are you able to let things go relatively easily?) Do you have any history of mental illness? -
The issue for me is its impossible to motivate myself to make money the way there making it. There values/motivation system aligns with the financial system in a way that allows them to make alot of money. That motivation is not about intelligence, so its not a fair comparison. Smarter people just cant make money in that way.

You where ready at 22 for psychedelics? -
integral replied to manuel bon's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@manuel bon 22 is to young to do drugs or psychedelics, your not emotionally ready yet, there is plenty in life to experience still and things you have to emotionally process, integrate and grow from. Ive seen many come here like you taking psychedelics in there 20s and they where simply to immature to handle alterations to there reality causing major long term depression. When your ready youll know it, now your just a kid, there is alot of growing up to do before your ready. Get a gf, start a business, have a career, achieve, get your finances in check, learn gymnastics, go rock climbing, go live life to the fullest you can and have fun in your youth. Psychedelics with completely unravel your life. Awakening does not guarantee a better quality of life or happiness, that foundation comes from inner growth and maturity. If you dont have that foundation you will unravel things into chaos. Most people need 10 years of basic self-development + self-help + shadow/trauma healing before they should do spiritual work. --- For the love of god you better not be a virgin. Got to seriously fuck a girl until she squirts hard all over your face to do psychedelics, thats the MINIMUM requirement. ? A virgin taking psychedelics is like learning how to fly before you learned how to crawl. -
LMFAO woman arent empathetic when they are in a bad mood, its highly relative on how they feel in that moment. If someone sets off a dislike trigger then there gut tells them that person is better off dead, its only with some work can they step back from there emotions and see things with higher clarity.

@Slipper A important distinction Awake as in: State (temporary) = Alien consciousness and insights from it or Level of Ego development = Default state growth As far as the average person should be concerned, leveling up to grow up to untangle all the petty human bullshit games your playing with yourself is more then awake enough. All the gurus Leo says "are not awake" still have a high level of ego development, they just didnt go as deep into the Truth state insight game. -
Its normal to wake up in the middle of the night, with your phone open up a bed time story on youtube and listen to it until you start drifting off then turn off the audio and go to sleep, if you still cant sleep listen to the bed time story again and repeat. Bed time story will turn off your thinking brain, do it every night.

The value of money is a representation of that countries economic value how ever that is calculated (inport/outport goods, production of valuable goods, oil reserves, debt, relationships with other contries...). The buying power of the average daily wage is a good indication of a countries wealth. There are exceptions if the government is corrupt and controlling wealth with large inequality gaps. -
Im nice to everyone in real life, it makes no sense being unlikable. I have no idea what you mean by nice is unattractive. I think the issue is your not taking any risk. Be nice and take risk at the same time.

@Michael569 She went to the hospital recently from severe stomach pain, they couldn't find the reason. She stopped taking the iron and the pain went away, 5 days later she tried the iron supplement again and the stomach pain came back. Is there a different form thats better tolerated? She was taking ferrous bis-glycinate.

Forget god and spiritualty this has nothing to do with spiritualty, what you need is basic self-help not more fantasies.
