So what OctagonOctopus is saying is that I can love and accept what is and that in this case means letting go of my attachments to should and shouldn't thoughts (as they are ultimately not true and cause me suffering). Instead I can say : " I could ( want to) accomplish something big in life and achieve my goals" which is very different and probably much more healthy motivation for my actions. I'll have to think about it more. I'm not really sure about that because there is a chapters in her book about underlying beliefs and self-judgements that indicates that The Work can be applied more broadly. Sure I can be wrong. Thank you for the answers.

Hello folks, recently I have been wondering about what positions require a higher education. Here I ask you to share your experiences and stories of people you know about how did they get their jobs and if getting a degree played a big part in it. By the way, I live in Europe where I can get free university education. Right now I assume that engineering require college degrees but maybe this is not entirely true, I am not sure. (Mainly I am interested in STEM but feel free to add all the other academic disciplines and jobs) I really appreciate your stories and experiences. That is it I wanted to ask, Have a good day.

In one of your videos you said something like " You want the most inspiring and motivating vision? Imagine yourself being completely self-less and completely loving" Can you elaborate more on that? Does it apply to a regular person if one really sink into it?

What are the most important elements to set in place of changing human consciousness? How do one actually make permanent changes to one's behavior and personality? (speaking mostly about more basic self-improvement, nothing spiritual there but I assume that same principles apply)

George Leonard "Mastery" and here you go. It has a lot of good insights.

Problem might be that carbs are the problem for you. So here is the thing. Keto or carnivore diets significantly reduces your hunger and cravings. I highly recommend trying that.

I have found some interesting resource on various topics on psychology. It is called " The Weekend University" here is one of the lectures that might be interesting.

Hello, Path towards your purpose do not have to be linear, somtimes it's better to do other activity which is not your passion just to make room in life to do what you actually want. It won't be a good choise to do your visual art and struggle to pay your bills.

Hello everyone, This is my first post and I really value being here. I'm 18 yers old and want to share some thoughts on my life purpose. So the thing is that by contemplating I reached conclusion that the most important thing for my is the one, which helped me to survive (solved my problems). In the past I had problems with emotional well being and kind of depression (I still do sometimes). By trying to fix that I stumbled upon philosophy, psychology and self-help and I managed convinced myself that this is the most important thing in life (becouse helped me to feel better and I do like it ) So this is negative motivation, right? Isin't that wrong way to go about figuring out my life purpose? Not only that, I also feel that these previous work of fields are crucial for other people to understand. Currently I'm studying math and physics and having strange sense that this is not that important to me (Of course, becouse there was no way that these things could help me with my emotional problems!!!) Same mechanics I also noticed in others. Example: a girl which broke up with her boyfriend thinks that she is most passionate about dating psychology. Things that I hold as important, I tend to think that same things are equally relevant for others. it would be nice to know your thoughts on this logic chain. Maybe you are in similar situation? Btw, thanks for all your support and all replies.
