Few people actually know what they're doing at 23. And those who do are wrong - check in with them in about 10 years to see that I'm right about this. It's not at all too late for you. But recognize bullshit when it pops up: the idea that you're too old to start now is bullshit.

What I did if followed my passion, BUT I was also very practical and knew I needed to develop concrete career plans. So I switched to philosophy, my passion, but I also resolved to develop my game design portfolio and technical skills so I could be hired as a game designer. Which I was.
You need BOTH passion and practicality. Be practical about your passions. Like, if you are gonna study film, have a concrete career plan in mind. Like develop the technical skills of a filmmaker or screenwriter.
No one will mock you if they see you are developing serious technical skill in a craft like writing, art, filmmaking, etc.
You can't just rely on a diploma to get you a career. A diploma means shit. You need to make serious, realistic career plans on your own, outside university work.

Unless you're entering school for a specific trade or career, education is an utter waste of time. And you'll have a ton of debt to pay off that will handicap you for years.
Get a job and start working. Money = Resources = Opportunity.

There's no problem per se with a 25 year old girl dating a 40 year old, because she's mature enough to be responsible for herself. So it's not the age difference that's the main problem here. The problem is that a girl who's 18-22 is immature as hell and doesn't know what she's doing.

Ridiculous. Dating a 19 year old is dating a child.

The only thing every girl needs is LEADERSHIP.
And that is because if a man does not lead her she will be gang raped and her children will sold into sexual slavery.

After staying away from psychedelics for almost 4 months I decided to start doing them again. I've been staying away from porn, sugar, weed, social media for 3 months and what I've noticed that my default level of consciousness has been constantly raising. Because of this I was really curious to see what happens if I do some psychedelics.
I need to mention that multiple trips on 5MeO have changed the way magic mushrooms affect me. Prior to 5MeO-DMT I did shrooms more than 50 times and I never had any profound trips. Now, when I do shrooms my trips are so crystal clear and so powerful, I can’t believe it.
Today I did 2.5 grams of mushroom tea and I was blown away by its purity. There weren’t any hallucinations whatsoever.  It felt like I was on 5MeO. I entered God consciousness within half an hour after drinking the tea. Ego death was quick, but still the fear was present until the end of dying. When my fake I died I woke up. I became lucid in my dream. I remembered that I am God and I’m playing games with myself. I was never born; I have been forever in nowhere. I’m pure magic, pure love, infinite creative power that has no beginning and no end. Anyways, words  can’t describe what I actually am and what is going on.
If you seek God, do psychedelics. You won’t find me trough meditation. If you think you will – you’re just kidding yourself. Your spiritual ego is in the way. All the teaching are corrupted (all of them), I created them in order to fool myself. The only way is psychedelics. The only reason why you’re afraid of psychedelics is because of your ego. Ego knows that there is not much danger in meditations or retreats. Psychedelics are really dangerous for the ego. If you consider to be a spiritual person, but you’ve never done psychedelics than you’re kidding yourself. If you did psychedelics a lot of time but you haven’t had a god realization than you’re kidding yourself, you’re not spiritual.
Psychedelics if applied correctly are the doorway to me, the rest is nonsense.
How do I know? Well, very simply. I am God.

Moving to a big city is the #1 thing you can do to improve your game.

What's preventing you is not being social enough and not have the experience to know how to vibe with girls.
Doesn't matter that you are in India. All girls love to be social and to vibe with fun guys.
Seek nightlife in your country. Every country has nighlife spots where people sing, dance, and party.

Bro, that's how life is for most people on the planet.
Not only that but by the end of the week you'll be so exhausted you'll just want to spend the weekend crashing on the couch and watching some TV, not doing any kind of personal dev work.
The solution is to build a career with a job that you're really passionate about, so that those 8 hours working each day are actually something you want to be doing.
The hope lies in building a career aligned with your life purpose.
Or starting a business and earning so much money that you can afford to take a lot of time off to work on your own side projects. This is what I did. Today I could not work for 10 years and just travel the world or do side projects. But still I choose to work because I mostly love my work. But I had to work real hard and real smart to reach this point. This is not any easy point to reach. You'll have to be super committed to reach it.

Hey everyone, 
This is my first post and where do I begin? My name is Daphne, 24 years old and I'm from The Netherlands. I sometimes feel very stuck in life. Allthough I made much progress in the last years. I feel like I'm lacking behind on everybody 'living the normal type of life'. Study, get a great job etc. To me it's more important to develop myself than to find a job but maybe to others I seem lazy? I'm very uncertain about my life purpose and what I want to become work related.
I feel like I'm not the type of person that will go to work, marry, have kids. And for this reason I feel stuck because all the people around me are like that. I'd rather explore the world and grow myself as a person. But you need money right? I don't know. I wish I could find my passion and make a living out of it, but I don't know how or where to begin? Tips are very welcome.
 

I meant, it needs to be the most meaningful thing out of the things you could be working on.
Unless you are a billionaire, you don't have a choice in life. You will have to work to make money. The only question is, will you work on things you find most meaningful or not?
Even if you value deep relationships, you'll still have to work. Because work IS survival. You cannot be alive and avoid survival. The only question is, what will be the quality of your survival? Are you gonna be scamming old ladies out of their life savings, are you gonna be selling poison at McDonald's, or are you gonna do something meaningful for the world?
Up to you.
Don't be surprised if you hate your life when you sell poison at McDonald's for 8 hours every day. You should hate your life at that point because what you're doing is so stupid. That hate is a message that God is sending you. God is telling you, "Why you being so stupid when you could be doing something so much more amazing with your life?"
Living life in stupid ways leads to lots of suffering.

You are exaggerating and creating stories.
You can find people.

I suggest to you that this isn't actually true but a self-deceptive story your crafty mind concocted.

I get it. It went through it. You just gotta focus on the growth and the adventure of it rather than the rejection. I stopped caring about rejection at all at some point. It doesn't even register in my mind if some girl ignores or rejects me. I will laugh at her.
It was extremely difficult for me too. But that challenge is what makes it so rewarding once you conquer it. So just learn to be more optimistic.
You must drop that competiton framing. I never think about flirting with girls as a competition. Rather it's about molding yourself into a more extroverted, humorous, fun guy. You're not in a battle with other men, you're in a battle with yourself to build social skill.
Also, social status and value can be built. For example, you can build a cool circle of friends. Or you can build up a career that also gives you some social status. You can design these things. For example, you can host parties. You can become a leader of your social circle. These things are within your control.
You gotta stop fixating on getting the girl and focus more on building skill and enjoying your time out. If you go out and have 3hrs of fun and you improve your skill by 1% that's a win. The girl is truly irrelevant in this.

Whenever you feel like it.

Sounds like you're just overthinking it. You gotta learn to take the early stages of datings less seriously. Treat it as an adventure and exploration. Don't think too far ahead in this domain.

Actually it came from meditation not psychedelics. I describe it in some old video, can't remember which.

@RawJudah Of course the life experience is worth it. Especially if you do it in less touristy ways. The best would be actually living in lots of different places for some time. If you live in a very foreign place for a month, that will generate massive experience.

The only solution is to socialize more to increase your odds. It's a numbers game. The more people you meet the more likely you are to meet exceptional matches. There's not any magic to it, you just gotta invest energy in socializing way more. Consistency is the key. Half the battle is won just by showing up every day when you could be doing something else.

Eventually I broke through into total forgiveness and resolution, recognition that pain is for learning, breaking free from self judgement that I am not perfect on the relative level, but complete and perfect on the absolute level.
Empathy for others has always been easy for me. It's is empathy toward myself that is a recurring theme for exploration and mastery.

For me ayahuasca is deeply introspective. Among other things it led me to meet directly with every way I've ever caused harm, through action or negligence, and I had to reconcile with and accept that as part of the totality of my being and of existence.
It is also not highly visionary for me, and neither are mushrooms for that matter. It is dose dependent of course but there does appear to be variation from one person to in whether the nature of the experience is primarily visual.
I find 5-MeO-DMT to feel fundamentally different from other forms of DMT including mushrooms, aya, or pure freebase 

It is excellent.
DMT is tops.

Yes, the dangers are real and I have incurred costs doing what I do. It ain't all positive. But in the end it comes down to your values. My top value was understanding consciousness, so it wasn't even something I had to make a hard decision on. The more psychedelics you plan to do the more careful you gotta be.
Most reseach chems in the 4-HO, 4-AcO, 5-MeO, and LSD classes are pretty safe.

This black pill shit is retarded. I cant believe any of you take this seriously. I'm 5'7 and I can tell you from personal experience, this is complete horse shit and only serves to give you an excuse as to why you are so useless to women
