Arrogance? and intellect.

Austin or NYC

Yeah I guess I haven't fully figured myself out yet. What I described is a midpoint between the two extremes. For myself anyway. Who knows. Maybe it is a sustainable approach for my personality. Nevertheless, having your entire mind and body co-opted full time for company is arguably worse. It is essentially physical and mental prostitution.

What if you had like 90% freedom and autonomy. The condition being that you had to be physically present. But your mind was allowed to go wherever you wanted pretty much all the time.

thx for the reminder

Next your gonna tell me the WWE is fake... Nice try.

@pablo_aka_god Pablo what is the solution tho.

I'm not arguing with you. In the pickup community they are called "naturals"

I would definitely not recommend for an extended period of time. You will become malnourished. Nutrient deficiency.

@Princess Arabia It is possible but it takes a certain kinda guy. Definitely outside the average guy's experience.

Yeah it's powerful but the amount of innovation especially relative to the price is so subtle that it does not warrant subsequent releases. But you are essentially correct that there is basically not a more powerful and all around as good phone as Apple. LG was constantly tinkering with features when they had the V series but their marketing was shit so they went out of business. @Leo Gura Steve Jobs did say without LSD there would be no Apple.

This shit is so important because the avg person is so deeply entrenched in conformity. That shit will gaslight you and you may be tempted to conform in subtle ways but that shit is poison. The implications of this are massive. Find ways to go against the grain. Not just for the sake of it but properly analyze and deconstruct something about your life. Maybe it's something like sleeping on the floor instead of an actual bed. You will start to see everything differently and find novel solutions and better ways of doing things. But you have to be daring enough to go against the grain.

@nerdspeak A woman can go on tinder and basically have sex every day if she wanted to, multiple times even. Compare the sex life of an average male to an average female, all else being equal the guy is struggling 90% of the time. Hence when guys get judged for x or y. Geo-maxing, or whatever else, I think some of the stage green critiques are warranted but require additional context and nuance which nobody does. It's like we're comparing two highly asymmetric outcomes and we're not even being honest about each other's realities.

I think you're just too cerebral to the point where it overcomplicates it. That along with many other factors. Really it's a just a cocktail of behaviors or traits that lead to "success" If your life is setup in such a way, where the cards are stacked in your favor it's not that hard. But I do think the funnel dries up if you are high IQ, neurodivergent like autism, or tier 2 spiral dynamics. Of course below average in looks or even slightly above average is not great. Not necessarily a bad thing but not a good idea to define your self worth on this singular aspect of life if such is the case. Really the more points you tally up the easier it is. Essentially stacking the cards in your favor to get as much p-word as possible. * Promoter ✅ * Geo-maxing ✅ * Ok with operating in moral grey zones ✅ * Sacrificing other important areas to focus on partying and sex ✅

@Adam M absolutely. But when adding stuff like breathwork + semen retention 14 days is crazy

You have to be very creative with designing your life. 90% of people don’t even question anything at all. But you have to question and breakdown every structure and facet of your life and society at large. Start bending the rules. I’m not saying to break the law. But to simply deviate from dogma and convention wherever your analysis has deemed essential.

It is not a bad idea to establish a secure financial / career situation. Who knows maybe sooner rather than later obviously good opportunities will come your way and you'll be able to jump on them. But when you're stuck surviving it's hard to do anything but frantically swim just to not drown. I made the same decision (doing something practical) you did except a few years later. And also estimate it should take about 3-5 years to develop some serious financial freedom. I also went down the sales and marketing rabbi-hole and burnt out (mainly from the sales stuff. A lot of emotional baggage and stress from constant quotas).

It seems like this is something hard to miss based on everyones experiences. I would say I have had deep meditative states induced through breath work, psychedelics, or even standard meditation. I've had experiences, plenty of solipsism. Becoming the universe. Becoming God. The cosmic joke. That's the way it hit me anyway. The joke is that you are that which you seek. The answer was right in front of you but you missed it for however many decades 2 1/2 that you've been alive. Circling around it like a blind fool. But I still don't know exactly what death is.

This doesn't just apply to sports science. The same goes for the vast majority of research conducted at universities. That's a big reason I always thought it was such a waste of time. Why would I devote myself to decades of research and work just to say "water is wet". I went to my old uni recently and basically everything was just replicating Andrew Huberman podcasts into a study. Nevertheless, it is such a fucking waste of time and resources. I can't understand why so many people devote their lives and studies to this. It's not interesting. And it's extremely fucking slow in terms of personal development and learning.

I cant speak for all situations. But I do speak from experiences as I have suffered from it since very, very young in multiple places in my body. First there studies that show a hedonic adaptation So basically people come back to their baseline happiness even after they developed chronic pain. In my experience there is truth to this. Despite the fact that my body hurts and is less mobile, I am still generally content. Although it did take a couple years to settle back into this reality. Lastly what I have managed to do is basically instead of trying to force my body to do what it cannot, I try to adapt and make modifications. That in itself has been it's own reward. I could become overweight, high blood pressure, and very unhealthy but instead I am more healthy than most. And I didn't do that by going to the gym but turning my daily life into the gym. That entire process forces me to be creative and I would argue the way I am doing it has many advantages over the traditional way people do because they haven't been forced to adapt and question the status quo. And for sure I have hated my life at times. I have lost opportunities available to me economically, social, and so on and so forth... Because perhaps I am physically incapable. Or socially etc... But instead of trying to force and push against the wall, letting things flow and going with the current. Idk I hear that life can surprise it if you let it, instead of forcing what you cling to as the ideal.

@OBEler Would need to see more use cases, feature / apps. This was just a little preview. I would say 100% it's hella damn useful for the AI session alone.

@DocWatts They will latch onto his ghost 100x harder now, until someone else fills the void. Basically turned an idiot into an idol.

@Ramanujan Probably not with 100 IQ. Although with AI, I think harder things will be accessible. You can use AI to do the thinking for you. Or maybe instead use it to do things you wouldn't naturally be capable of yourself, expand your natural baseline of thinking, etc... Idk I feel like most people if they pushed themselves hard could develop their minds 10 fold. Like the Leo of today is totally different than when he started Actualized. Self-development is real. neuroplasticity is real.

@Peo OP also said his IQ is 148 which is 1 in 1000 people. All the top tech entrepreneurs are like 145+ IQ. For the niches that he is involved in, raw cognitive horsepower is a necessary ingredient. But absolutely, without hard-work and massive effort on his part it is inconceivable. Not to discredit him as I know plenty of people with high IQ's whose life is crippled.
