@soos_mite_ah was just in a dumbass mood and fucking around lmao

I have done life purpose course and realised this is my ultimate vision for my life 🎉. Anyone else managed to become a stay-at-home child-free single dad as well? Or have any advice on how to make this vision work?

@Finax I don’t know too much about his background and haven’t watched your linked video. But from what I’ve seen of him he just seems like someone who read a culture war handbooks and started spitting of right wing talking points. He seems pretty inauthentic to me. Like compare to someone like Patrick Bet David who I think is actually sincere in his political beliefs, or Dennis Prager.

Interpersonal theory of suicide says suicide is the result of feeling like burden plus also a sense of thwarted belongingness.

@Ryan M I’d watch moral foundations of politics lecture series by Ian Shapiro. Haven’t watched it myself but have watched another lecture series by him. He’s a Yale political lecturer. He’s a great speaker, and also from seeing the course content of the moral foundations series it seems great for beginners.

I just like that it puts everything into an impersonal perspective. Like a trump supporter is just where he is at.

@kyle barnett There’s no failure only feedback my guy imo. You made a commendable change in your life and now understand what result that brings in your life. Before you didn’t know that and now you do. Thats very useful information. The way you are is the way you are. You gotta work with yourself rather than fight it. What do you need for you to do x productive action? Experiment with various things and see what leads to you consistently doing that thing. Key imo is to work on not beating yourself up for not doing that certain thing. But just see it as a process of trial & error and experimentation until you end up finding what gets you to do that thing consistently. All best bro

We’re finally free to express ourselves whilst still retaining our respect and dignity of others.

@MarkKol Imo they resonate well because they are very good at marketing. And from their marketing skills they know how to emotionally impact you. I’m not too in the know when it comes to specific marketing principles but I’d argue that that is what is happening here. Some of their content has resonated with me too in the past. But just because something resonates strongly doesn’t mean that that thing is a useful thing to bring into your life imo. Otherwise everyone who joins a cult would be having fulfilling lives. Anyhow, all best to you mate 👍. Interesting topic.

@jacknine119 Bro I swear this is the biggest life hack. Just active listen to people. In other words just repeat back what they say back to them in order to show understanding. ie say ‘so if I’m understanding you correctly you want xyz’. And keep doing it throughout difficult conversations. I got it from Stephen Covey’s book ‘7 habits of highly effective people’. It’s the 2nd habit ‘Seek first to understand then be understood’. I think it works because it sets an underlying collaborative frame.

@Javfly33 You could do the unified mindfulness (UM) training and the you become a certified UM teacher. UM is Shinzen Youngs organisation. They’ll then advertise you on their website. Then you can get clients and do say hourly sessions with them. You could set limits on your client numbers as you start out and do it part time. That way you can gain experience teaching meditation but with less extreme demands that going full time would entail. Then later down the road you can setup your own full time gig from a place of better experience and understanding.

Nah, still a way off for me. Congrats on the progress though 🥳. It’s a beautiful thing. Maybe you could do with some meditation coaching. If you look up unified mindfulness teachers I think some of them could help you. It’s Shinzen youngs organisation. I’d just recommend voicing what specifically you want help with so you can get a coach with suitable experience. Either way all the best mate -

There is too much bs in this world 😂😂😂 ”I believe we are entering a new era of honesty” 😂gtfo of here. -
As in through meditation?

Can start a solo hobby like painting, drawing, learn an instrument, reading fiction. Whatever takes your fancy.

Yes I would agree it is hard to understand their lives. And that people are often uncharitable in their arguments about how easy it is to be them. -
Not sure how I was trying to sound smart, it wasn't a deep point I was making lol. But if you took it as a sign of me being smart then sure, thank you. Nonetheless, I disagree with your points here. Your argument is too absolute. People could put a lot of effort into a book and not much effort into the summary.

Okay I think I get you. I think when you say 'there is no credibility to our judgment' that is too absolute of a claim. I think that it would be more accurate to argue that there is doubt over the credibility of our judgment regarding some aspects of their lives. Like if you saw Elon Musk dropkick a baby, you wouldn't need to understand what it means to be rich to be able to credibly judge him. -
Ulax replied to Thetruthseeker's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
I see. So you are essentially arguing that these sorts of public figures are easily misjudged? -
Ulax replied to Thetruthseeker's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Your earlier argument: “because You have no Idea what they are really like, who they are, what they stand for and what it means to be them and live their daily lives, all You have is information that is biased one way or the other telling You stories about them, there is no credibility.“ That argument would still mean you can’t judge isis for chopping off peoples heads. -
I dunno from what I’m seeing the key reason trump won was because of high inflation. Which many blamed on the current presidential party. And the idea that Harris wasn’t seen as a candidate that could enact necessary change.

You could make the same argument for not being able to judge ISIS for judging peoples heads off. Your argument leads to absurdity
