Is it possible to never find ANY girls who perceive you to be their type?
Is it possible to never find ANY girls who perceive you to be their type?1) You still need to make yourself look dapper and stylish. For a man, looking attractive includes how you groom, dress, and carry yourself. I am not giving you a license to be a disgusting, smelly, hairy goblin in rags.
2) With shitty game not only will you not get laid, women will even call security on you. Good game is crucial. But you develop that as you approach those 1000. Nobody starts with good game. If you go out every week, your game skills will double every 6 months.

Reading "The Game", Who is Owen Cook, Attending his seminars, my first impressions
Reading "The Game", Who is Owen Cook, Attending his seminars, my first impressionsBro, The Game is mostly a fictional book. You treat it as some kind of biographical study. Neil Strauss invented half of it from whole cloth to make it sell.
You need to distiguish sales BS from real life.
And this desire to idolize people you learn from is very problematic. No one ever said Owen is perfect. He's flawed like most humans are. His whole life comes from a deeply wounded place. That's what makes him relatable. Basically every pickup teacher comes from a wounded and dysfucntional place. But you can still learn gold from them if you pick and choose.

Reading "The Game", Who is Owen Cook, Attending his seminars, my first impressions
Reading "The Game", Who is Owen Cook, Attending his seminars, my first impressionsWatch my video: How Authority Works
I rely on myself because nothing out of a human's mouth can be trusted. It's all mostly bullshit and self-serving delusions.
Don't give your authority and sovereignty away to others, otherwise their epistemic errors will infect your mind. It's like you're having sex with infected people. Stop doing that. It's not safe. Be sovereign! You are God, after all.
Always be skeptical of sales and sales people and popular things.
It's well known that Neil Strauss exaggerated and distorted many parts of the book. What else would you expect from a PUA? PUAs don't have much integrity or honesty.
A PUA is gaming his customers as much as he games his women.
Just take the ideas. The person is irrelevant.

I'm in a hardcore 'artistic crisis'. Help?
I'm in a hardcore 'artistic crisis'. Help?99% of people do. Nothing funny about it.
It's not accidental. The pragmatics of life will crush your soul and all your dreams.

I'm in a hardcore 'artistic crisis'. Help?
I'm in a hardcore 'artistic crisis'. Help?@ivankiss That strategy can work, but it assumes you can motivate yourself long-term to work on business projects that you're not that passionate about. It can be hard to pull that off. But that's the strategy I used to bootstrap my LP. It works but requires serious commitment to your long-term vision and it will be painful as you work for years on something which is not your passion/LP just to one day fund your LP. And by the time you make enough money you may forget all about your original LP. It will be hard to say No to the money and go back to start your music from square one.
The bottom line is: to make a strategy like that work, you gotta be persistent and hardworking like a motherfucker.

The spiral dynamics framework seems flawed
The spiral dynamics framework seems flawedBible Thumbing Christians are obviously not more developed. Just because they dogmatically hold some beliefs which happen to correspond to some mystical truths does not make such people developed. A materialistic scientist is more developed in that at least the scientist is able to be non-dogmatic and to study reality from an empirical perspective. The Blue Christian isn't studying anything and isn't critically thinking about reality at all, he is just parroting words.
Someone who plagiarizes Shakespeare is not a better writer than someone who writes decently but in his own words.
Once you develop an empirical mind, you don't ever go back to being a fundamentalist. This is why Orange is above Blue. A stage Blue person does not yet understand Orange, but a stage Orange person correctly understands that Blue is fundamentalist and dogmatic -- and that this is deeply problematic.
Don't get lost in the content, look at the structures. Be correct on the content is less important than being correct on the structure. The structure in this case is being dogmatic vs being empirical. Being empirical is more developed.
Mysticism is superior to atheism, but atheism is superior to fundamentalist dogma.
Compare the US Founding Fathers and The Constitution vs the theocracy in Iran. Orange vs Blue. Which is more advanced?
You also clearly see that stage Blue politics is way more regressive and problematic than stage Orange politics. Stage Orange politics will be capitalism. Stage Blue politics will be racist and nationalist and theocratic.
If you give stage Blue power, they will turn the country into a theocracy with their religion as king. There is no religious pluralism or tolerance at stage Blue. That only comes online at Orange. Stage Blue will force you to bend a knee to their God. There is nothing developed about that. It is better to bend your knee to a capitalist or a scientist.

Leo Gura PUA
Leo Gura PUARSD was one of the best back in the 2012ish era when I was big into it. Not sure about what they teach today since I haven't watched in a long while.
Was it highly conscious? No. But it worked for getting good with the ladies.
But there are many, many dating and attraction courses and teachers out there. I've studied dozens of different ones. Hard to remember them all. David DeAneglo is a classic. I studied Adam Lyons, David Wygant, Mystery Method (although it's super outdated), and a bunch more that I can't recall now.
The basic theory is very simple: you go to a crowded place where there are many hot women, you see one, you muster the courage to approach her, and you start talking your mouth off. Smile, be playful, strong eye contact, have sexual intent, get good a touching her early without being creepy. Repeat 10,000 times. The rest is fine details. Roll with experienced wingmen who can show you the ropes in-person.

there is no way self inquiry is THIS EASY
there is no way self inquiry is THIS EASYYup
I mean... the most spiritual people don't even do meditation or self-inquiry. They simply have spontaneous awakenings out of the blue.
I have met people who were born awake.
I know people who have higher states of consciousness as children then you do on DMT.
I know people who can see aliens and goblins and ghosts walking around the planet the same why you see birds flying around outside.
You will never, ever reach their states of consciousness no matter how long you meditate. They are like a different species. They look human on the outside but they are not human on the inside. These are extreme outliers. There are people with perfect photographic memory or people who can tell you 6 digit prime numbers off the top of their heads. There is no technique to achieve that.
Ramana came out of the womb meditating -- effectively.

Nuanced pickup questions megathread
Nuanced pickup questions megathreadOf course that's the end goal. The challenge is how to get there. You cannot tell an inexperienced virgin to "just BE attractive".
RSD has always taught to "just BE attractive", but they give you practical ways to work towards that if you suck. And almost all of us start out sucking real bad.
When you are a newbie you gotta be a serious try-hard. It won't look natural. But over time it will become natural.

Building Muscle = Ego?
Building Muscle = Ego?This is fake stuff that you will not sustain, and it is OBVIOUSLY done purely for the ego.
What do you think all those tattoos are? Ego
And that dude is on HGH and steroids to look that cut.
Basically you can assume that every professional gym rat is on steroids. It's just a scam to sell you wannabes a fantasy.
Even Joe Rogan is on HGH and God knows what other drugs. It's all fake shit. The whole industry is designed to prey on insecure men's egos.
Ego. Ego. Ego. Ego. Ego. That's what these people are posing for.
They sell you these poses because you think it will make girls like you. But the truth is, deep down you hate yourself and you suck with girls for much deeper reasons.

Building Muscle = Ego?
Building Muscle = Ego?Pretty much. Why would you want bulging muscles? Only to feed your self-esteem.
But exercise for health is not ego. But exercise for health will not give you bulging muscles. It will make you fit and lean.

What Makes DMT Profound and LifeChanging?
What Makes DMT Profound and LifeChanging?For me it is more powerful than 5-MeO. Too powerful. Unbearable, suicidal levels of consciousness. Imagine a beauty so infinite it makes you want to kill yourself because you cannot stand to look at it.

Is Spiral Dynamics a strange loop?
Is Spiral Dynamics a strange loop?It's not a strange loop, it's a SPIRAL! A spiral is a loop that keeps moving upward.
Aubrey does all his trips with shamans in the rain forest. Of course he's gonna have that shamanic, tribal vibe. I see nothing special in that. Does that help him integrate stage Purple? I would bet. It's hard to learn Purple in the modern world, you really gotta go live in a remote tribe.

Wondering what mystical experiences are real.
Wondering what mystical experiences are real.You are getting too technical with your definition of experience. I am using it causually here, inclusive of Being.
Experience = Being + ego.
When ego is removed from the equation, experience is absolutized.
Just different ways of saying it.
The point is to absolutize your experience of life. Make your experience Absolute.

Questions regarding plugging 5-MeO-DMTThe protocol is don't eat for 4 hours prior to trip and take a shit 10-60 minutes before you trip.
As you gain experience with plugging you will learn to shit at will. Conscious shitting it's called. Only normies don't know how to shit at will

I resonate a lot with Jordan Petersons take on feminism - What am I missing?
I resonate a lot with Jordan Petersons take on feminism - What am I missing?@SamC You have to build a steelman of feminism in your mind before you attempt to deconstruct it.
What is the genuine good intent behind feminism? What is the spirit of feminism? That's what you should contemplate deeply and grasp. Once you grasp that, then you can do some deconstruction and critique of its excesses, keeping in mind that nearly all social movements have excesses. If you don't like the excesses of feminism how about the excesses of toxic masculinity and patriarchy? Don't just conveniently forget about those.
Make a distinction between criticizing feminism from below vs from above. The kind of stuff JP does is from below. He has not integrated it properly and is therefore reacting against his own shadow on behalf of his fan base.
Basically, notice when you are reacting to shit like an animal, and stop it.

I resonate a lot with Jordan Petersons take on feminism - What am I missing?
I resonate a lot with Jordan Petersons take on feminism - What am I missing?A) Stop listening to JP.
B) Go read some feminist books.
C) Check your biases.
Feminism is about about women overtaking them. Feminism is about women being treated on par with men.
Women were not allowed to get a bank loan until the 1970s without a man's permission.
Just think about that.
Why are you so insecure that you are bothered by women getting a little bit better treatment?

Caitlyn Jenner running for CA governor
Caitlyn Jenner running for CA governorYou answered your own question.
Selfish people hold political positions which serve them personally the most.
It's class bias.
I would expect someone with $100 million dollars to be a conservative just for the tax breaks.
That's only one factor. Another factor is that they are selfish and self-biased, which means they vote only based on what personally serves them.
A stage Orange person's worldview is commonly all about unchecked capitalism. The more she benefits from unchecked capitalism and materialism the more that worldview will feel true and real.
Jenner is entitled and materialistic as fuck. Of course she doesn't care about helping poor people by deconstructing capitalism. Her entire run for gov is just a personal publicity stunt, like Kanye West and Trump. That's how these people operate. They don't give a fuck about actually doing good governance. To them this job is a way to be famous and grift off the fame.

Leo On Charlie and Ben Podcast
Leo On Charlie and Ben PodcastBecause it is impossible. Charlie would not know what questions to ask in what order to get something like one of my videos.
This is why I rarely do conversations with people. The interviewer does not know the depth of what he is asking. We waste most of the time clearing up confusions and defense mechanisms. To get a conversation as substantial as one of my videos the interviewer would need have a depth of consciousness and knowledge that I have. Such people nearly do not exist. And if they do, they don't have massive YT channels or general audiences.
There is a fundamental limitation in explaining these topics to a general, causal stage Orange audience. No amount of skill can overcome that limitation. The best that can be done is a bit better. But it will never be some homerun that leads to some profound awakening. Conversation is not suited to this work. Which is why I generally avoid it. If I want to explain something serious, having a person asking me question is actually an obstacle.
My videos are as dense and direct as things can get short of a book. Any conversation I have will be less dense because it will meander around and devolve into an infinite chain of follow up question.
Conversations are not lectures. They are just random questions. Imagine trying to learn calculus with little mathematical experience by asking random questions for 2 hours. It's impossible. It would all sound like word salad and woo-woo.
I have spent more time studying these issues than you spent years learning mathematics. And you still suck at math.
And I consider Charlie a good stage Yellow interviewer. Just imagine how bad it would get if I was speaking to a defensive Tier 1 person like Richard Dawkins. It would get real bad. And that's exactly as it should be, because the interviewer and his audience are playing a game of defending their constructions of reality.
What is not understood by people is that a conversation is never a genuine inquiry into truth. Truth cannot be reached via conversation, ever. Because the person you are talking to does not even exist but in your own mind.
If you were conscious of the truth you would not be having a conversation in the first place. Conversations are for entertainment, not truth.
If you expect my podcast appearances to deliver you some epic deep understanding, you should drop that fantasy now because it won't happen. The format does not allow that. If you want some deep understanding of anything I talk about you'll need 10 hrs minimum. Just to understand Spiral Dynamics takes at least 20 hours of study. And that's way easier to understand than something like science or God.

Question on Leos video "What Is Goodness?"
Question on Leos video "What Is Goodness?"Even if you are acting evil, you're still doing it out of a twisted sense of what is good.
The problem isn't that some people are good and some are evil. The problem is that good is relativistic, which leads to some fucked up scenarios where someone like Hitler is actually doing good from his twisted worldview.
This is a problem of perspective.
But also you should note that Hitler was often nice in person, had good manners, and even loved his dog and so on. If Hitler saw an old German lady struggling to cross the road, and there was no one else around, he would probably gladly help her across just to feel good about himself.
Another example: a mass shooter thinks he's doing good for the world by shooting people. If your worldview is one in which you see mankind as evil and cancerous, shooting them suddenly becomes good.
Certainly some people are more positive vs negative via genetic predisposition and brain chemistry. Some people are prone to depression, nihilism, self-hatred, etc. But these are all twisted up forms of consciousness. Such consciousness can be rehabilitated or straightened out. But it tends to be very labor intensive.
