Shouldn't be a problem. You can watch the videos @ 240p or 360p, and since it's just Leo's talking head in the videos you won't miss much.

Does it HAVE to be either or? Or would you be able to find/follow your passion on the side for the next 6 months and then move on? (What's the point of getting good grades if you quit anyways, just make sure you're "good" enough to pass the exams ;-) ) To one person 50'000 NOK is a lot of money, to others it's peanuts. You're still young, you've got plenty of time and 6 months is nothing. But then again, why continue doing something you hate? Life's too short for that! Just don't make the same mistake again, getting in debt for a degree you probably don't even need (unless you really DO need to get that degree or title to pursue your passion, but about 80% of the time you don't and would be better off learning the skills on your own). But that's just my opinion, and I bet you already know what feels right for you.

Thanks for both of your answers. I've since advanced in the exercises to pass #9 that addresses this issue in more detail. So it looks like I was somewhat ahead of the schedule. I've also already re-wrote my definition of structure in a more positive light by combining it with productivity and using time and energy efficiently.

Thanks for your reply. What functioning properly means to me: Being able to think straight. If I don't structure my thoughts I get nervous and stressed and I'm in "pet-mode", where I keep running around in circles, trying to catch my own tail. Once I do get some structure by sitting down and map things out I'm able to think clearer and more concise. Without structure I wind myself up - sometimes to such an extent where I get so overwhelmed that I just quit altogether. Also, having peace of mind in terms of all the things I need to do. Without a proper to-do list, I get so overwhelmed that I don't get anything done, avoiding all work, as there's too much to do for too little time and energy. Without structuring my thoughts, my tasks and my day I can't think properly. And since I constantly think as long as I'm awake, this can lead to a terrible downward spiral. Now, simply to "stop overthinking" doesn't help me, as it's part of how I process things and how my brain neurologically works. I guess structure, in fact, is very meaningful to me - if not the single most meaningful thing I have. However, I feel like it's also a negative motivation that drives me away from not being able to think straight, to feeling overwhelmed and to avoid pain. On the other hand, I could also say that structure helps me to feel peace of mind, to calm myself down and to think clearly.

Hi there, I'm currently doing the Values exercises in the LPC. I'm currently at Pass #4. Within my new list, there's one value I'm not 100% sure should be on the list. Structure. (In the sense of structuring my thoughts, my tasks, goals etc. in a way that give me peace of mind. Knowing everything is in the correct order and accounted for. - if that makes any sense...) It's not a value I strive for per se, but I count it as a "necessity". I just can't function without it, so I feel it's extremely important - if not vital - in my life. (I'm almost certain I'm on the autism spectrum, that might explain why I think it's an important, if not quite "meaningful" value per se.) I can't really come up with something that's more meaningful than being able to function properly, yet structure itself doesn't make me fulfilled either. The same thing could be argued about health (not on my list). Maybe not super meaningful and fulfilling in of its own, but somehow a "must have" for a good life. I'd be interested in hearing your take on it.

Hi there, I've just got the ultimate life purpose course and started to watch the videos. However, I'm just wondering if it's better to read all the book recommendations and watch the recommended videos before moving to the next concept, or if I should focus on the course first, and then go back to the books later, once I completed the course. Sure, I'm desperate to get results and to figure out what I should do with my life as fast as possible (at least to know the next steps to take). But just this once I really want to make sure to get the most out of this course and to be part of the 5%. Just FYI: I'm currently unemployed and an avid reader. I do have plenty of time and could finish a book within a couple of days easily. On the other hand, I'd like to know where I'm headed so that I can finally get "back on track", start my journey and learn along the way.
