@Guest SirVladimir thank you! saw your reply just now. wow... what i learned? i cant smoke weed like snoop dog. i dont need to. i dont want to. now that i live alone again and face survival problems ( kind of in a hole) but its ok im breathing, and now that its painful i get it, i will keep on keeping on, thanks a lot again. i let go of the bitcoin stuff btw, my idol now is bob dylan, slowely with awarness is a line which guides me now. thank a lot again i really appriciate you.

hey everybody, i stambeled upon the life purpose before couple of years and i think i is really good, i went threw it twice to make sure that music, words and combining them is my highest passion, and it is i wrote it down on my Mesheet, i try to do the 90 days and didnt succed, will try again, after couple of fails. i had some difficulties trusting myself it is my passion, as i went threw life i always had phases when i did something got serios and good and then went to other thing which captured my attention and seem to bring more joy. always. i think this ersistence this root is now whay im facing. a year ago i didnt know what i should do in life so i started Digital Marketing course, i almost finished it, i know how to build a website, promote on google,facebook not a master becasue i dont have much expirience but its nice, im learning it do be a master in that, i created a website that suggest there my Photography and Videography services too, for buisnesses who want to promote theit looks online. so i almost done with that, but some offer came from my fathers work to do a free PHD in any univesity, so i decide to take if the world gives. i didnt know what i would like to do but as now, naturally i really interested in Litreture, music and reading books. so it looks natural to me to study litreture and hopefully i could get a job and manage my survival needs with the website buulding thing. the thing is im evereg in the sevices i offer with my webiste, its called onestopmedia because you can get all the services in one place, i can do cool photographs and videos if needed. and i see how the LP course is all the opposite to try to create the one thing that only you can do. my friend told me yesterday i should think about the litreture thing cause its not afffordable, but when i was thinking affordable and tried Cybersecurity Course i hated it, and he told me i should follow my passion and i was couple years ago with photography( i was shooting portraits for couple of years).. its the same friend i work out with, and now we start a toxic project with bitcoin, affiliate marketing. he has connections and i know how to build and promote landing page so...theres that. my intuition tells me i should do what i like. i should get real serios and disciplened about it, i transformed my body in the last 6 monthes i started working out almost every day. with my friend and i see if i invest in myself result come. its translatable to others areas. i dont have so much background with music, i play guitar for couple of years but nothing serios most time jamming and learning songs. i think that the literture thing will help me with the lyrics and then i just need to really master the insturument and what makes that sound i like in certain songs, anaylyze how it works and why so i can play with the insturument like sculpt my melody. my mother is supportive to about the litreture PHD, she actually did it, didnt really did something with it, my mother is extremely good pianist she played from young age, published one songs book ( single project) other times she teches piano and playes for kids bands. her main thing now is yoga, shes a really good passionate teacher. and she thinks it will open me things if i go towards what i want. i see other friends of mine. so sure of themselves, study physics, and computer science and cybersecutity and i dont have this sureness about my path which i really want and the LP was the main thing for it, i guess i still really dont believe i can really do it, so i dont try with full zest and effort. i guess confusion, dought is in all of us, we just need to learn to create a much bigger vision and story about ourselves so we get run to that direction. and not worry so much... also i leave with my parents i back actually becasuse of covid. and i feel like i too dependent. my fathers things that at 20 years old you should live parents house. and im 22. if you read all of this. thank you. that was a lot

music is great men, its a really hard one for me too. i really love, movies music and pictures. i can narrow it down to music. and thats what i did because i see that i play the guitar actully. and not shooting movies. but i still love it,would love to shoot, direct, write, and work in this type od job. so maybe i will go study cinema. i still dont know. this or litreture. good luck!

thanks for replying!

@UNZARIdude i very much love your energy, great words thank you! i was waiting for person like you to inspire me, this type of stories are all i needed right now. i am sure you inspired more people here, take off towards music just me and the guitar starts right now. i wish you the best moments you wish to have and to take your art to a place you dont know you possibly can. and to the rest who is reading this too, keep working hard and be the best that you can.

i found my LP, i feel that music is the thing i most passionate about. now life presented me with crossroad and i need to decide. if the plane is ship is going to sail toward the purpose and let all the energies go there or... to put it more concretely start selling some products on internet and moving and creating a job where i work for myself and then do the transition. i know it will take some time, energy and money. and losing of it at the start. but i gotta tell you this, today my father told me how my grandfather went threw a period of hunger from 33 to 35, that's a real life struggle right there. i read about Jimi Hendrix now, the dude used to walk all day with a broom cause he had no money at the start, people thought he was crazy. it took hem two decades until he got hits and started play his music. he used to walk with all of this stuff in his guitar case, sleep outside, not eating for several days.. you see what i am trying to say? glary vee talked about it, ''go get enough money to pay your shit and the rest of the time work, do your own thing'' Charles Bradley sold records at 62! but he did it! i dont care if it will take me that long too, i have no fear of what my family and friends will say i am willing to put it all and i hope you all too hope you all doing real good making the most of your time, especially if you at home because of the virus. any thoughts ?

Yea Aurum, so you work at a job for now and working at it the rest of your time? btw i just replied to your Estas Tonne playing on Instagram, i think i will not go for this digital marketing business, too much time consuming and money. i already took digital marketing course so i will learn to make website and how to market, maybe i will transition later to job at it, if not i think i continue to work at part time jobs, work on project for cover show, playing as much as i can and maybe after decade or 4 i will be so good they cant ignore me.

Jayson, you have good points but you see i think the LP course meant for you to realize it and then minimize distractions and detours and i think both of us will agree that we fear most about goin at it will all of our efforts and never looking back. in a sense if you put the music career on hold and go peruse something else it will stay on pause and you never start it until you just go to the unknows. Hendrix for example played all day for two decades, he was sleeping with his guitar, making breakfast with the guitar on him and playing , singing to himself and walk at the streets while playing it, all the time. when he started to have big shows he would stay all day on the bed and play with his girl. come on time to the show and giving his best. you see how that is a bigger leap, he didn't play it safe, music was all that mattered to him. he said that he realized that at gigs the musicians get the least money but with the girls it is the opposite. people thought he was freak and year later people interviewed him and he laughed because of that. i feel more passionate thinking that i will focus on it with full power. those big names acted much differently going strategically didn't cross their minds i think... anyways it sound nice to be able to market products from any place in the world and later get the business atomized. but i know i will have to work and put money on it to market and fail until i succeed, and its even more work for couple of years and less time to practice. for example my sister had a product on amazon but she told me its just like a job you have to put the hours it just that you're at home. i think the really serious musicians are to busy perfecting their sound and we will not hear from them in forums. reading that book about Hendrix just gave me that sense of his spirit. and you right today bands like tame impala which is Kevin Parker band he is not world class he is genius. to be realistic i think you can always get a job to have enough money for basic needs, work part time, live minimalistic. if people will say or think that you failure they right, to them its looked like a failure, but you know where you are going towards, you already succeeding you cut all the bullshit. Logic worked a two jobs and all night was writing songs and imagining he performs in front of millions of people i went for the marketing because it can be helpful to market my stuff later, but it seems kind of backwards now. anyway i wish you best of luck with you're business and i really hope that this conversation is helpful. i realized that i wait for someone to tell me yea i do it, so i will have the courage to do the same. one life...zero regrets

interesting stories there, was disappointed i didn't find any techniques

@MarkoK1 i think a good option someone said to test it about the visa is good, i get it you feel like there is the environment you need but you really know once you ger there. also notice that you can bring to where you live what you like in America and share it with your locals you see? i get your point i want to go to a more music city or country too i live in israel, i play the guitar and want to live out of that. i remember when i was in America for a short time that you can get good money and live nicely, and then maybe do it full time, performed, get a show going or something test and see what happened.

@AudibleLocket hey men ! you're in a really good position! and you really good on those drums bro! you can still get some income, and its a family buisness so its even better you work with them and support each other together! see how lucky you are, just keep goin at it. be so good no one could ignore your drumming! and you doin it from a relly young age which is awesome. i want to become full time musician too, and i am thinking on a way to get enough income to do it and i am not playing for so long, keep mastering it wish you the best! you are young, play good and very lucky recognize that

@omfar001 yes, because i didn't use the momentum when i had some skills like photography to think on the business side of it. 95% of the jobs i worked so far was physical or mindless just for the money, so now go for bigger paycheck, and conditions. so i can stop the stress of trying to self actualized and find and stay on LP, i didn't choose anything so now i choose to choose something which will have less stress if i will succeed in the course.

@Ross Labby it actually crazy we have almost identical obstacle, after listening to good musicians like Hendrix, bb king, Radiohead, Dylan and some awesome albums i had lots of moments when i felt like yep this is it. then i would think twice about the film..i love it so much to and had a moment once that that's what i need to do. i also had droughts weather if inside music its mastering the guitar, writing songs, singing... its all awesome i want it all but best way would be to choose and just go... and now i have thoughts that songs and movies you can write and do and sing once you have the great idea for that movie, or have that muse to write a song. but again its not laser focus so then i thought that being best guitarist and go full on that until i master it, then i could do other stuff i hope this wasent no too all over the place and you might could have get some value from this exchanging information i think what i am tryind to say that you can master a musical instrument, you already have a value. writing epic movie, beautiful song you need to read some books, become philosopher, have a greater understating of yourself the world and the vision... this specifically goes for movie script

@Leo Gura Leo i am watching the LP course again, the thing you said about going the path of least resistance is so right i thought that not doing it and giving any excuse would mean i am too lazy and not really want it enough. but for me as one who worked on a physical 9-5 job most of the time i just want better conditions now, i decided to do a course that get me a secure job and paycheck so i can leave my parents for good, worry less about survival needs because of better paycheck too. and then work on a way to shift to passive income in something like Airbnb and practicing every day on my passion to keep the fire burning and the eyes toward the bigger vision and possibility of greater life. i just feel like i wasted so much time, opportunities. that i need to stop wondering and going for a way the will have some good effect if i make it would be good, to make sure i am not backsliding. now i just need to get that vision board, me sheet, finish those last exercises and decide what i want to master, to pick one, because i have two but i think since i bought the guitar, amp, and the good ones, when i kind of shouldn't, because money situation not ideal. was me being brave/stupid... to know i have this is check and i can practice and play everyday and i can perform outside, do gigs once i ready was Subconscious choice from heart and again just commiting to it. ( just thinking out loud here) my other passions is film, writing.. specifically doing films, writing scripts, books.. but i think its something that requires such a big vision and knowledge of oneself and of the world the you can pull something turquoise level of these when you free yourself almost completely from a job to the the inner work, philosophy, spirituality, deep studying ,and you can always do it at the moment you have the idea. any thoughts would help, maybe will show me some trap or wiser way looking at things. god i need to stop being needy, i had that thought yesterday that maybe some people get better results while talking about it with others, people they trust, like that's how they recharge...because that's how i felt after a conversation with mom, but deep down i see that self reliance is wiser way...but we are social creature..

@omfar001 huh its kind of funny, i choose to learn ethical hacking because of the good job i can have afterwards to support me. but it seems to me you have passion to it, just keep doing it. if not, i think wise way is to thing of a smooth transition to work on your passion until you can generate value and live from it, or other way to finance yourself, i think about buying and then renting a house. its good that you do it to have a good job, i did not was wise enough to see i need to do it too first.

@Meister_Eckhart i think the wisest decision is to go on number 3. and i think i am gonna do it, i worked at 9-5 job and other physical and low level jobs just for the money for too long. and as time goes by i saw how much i distracted myself, didn't prioritize my activities and pursuits and goals with what i really want. and your purpose is kind of what i want too, it feels more relevant after Leos new video, becoming a philosopher, studying yourself, meditating doing all of this. i think we all want it and see the value of it, but it takes a lot of time. you can do it like the buddha. but yea you and i had the guts we will do it. i want to stop this way the people come and save me, i now back to my parents house. i am 22 i realize i should have doing my actions towards first of all taking care of finances, and then to do it, to take more responsibility right? for example right now i am staring ethical hacking course, am i technical kind of guy? hell no. but, i dont want to work at physical growling jobs no more. i want better paycheck, conditions at work and every day life, and then after i have that and finding a way to have passive income maybe invest in houses and rent them, i can peruse my life purpose and and the whole philosopher thing. i hope i could help somehow with this exchanging of information. i know for me, sometimes now choosing can be the worst choice. and something that my sister told me about what i told you about this new course i am taking to get to this better job is, that in that time i will learn something, i will get to know people, i will have money so its good investment. as long as we leveling up, taking more responsibility and control, more mature, wiser. that's what important, the reality is the money is important.

@Villager Albert i looked him up, it make sense what he said. black and white thinking is the problem, there is no one answer that fits everyone, i love that ,no dogma and locked mind.

@purerogue yea i guess different genes and tolerance, make sense. but after looking some films like game changers, and thinking that great people like Leonardo da vinchi, Eisenstein, Nikola tesla, say good stuff about veganism, vegetarian diets and follow these, it makes me wonder maybe there is something about it. i just want to know what it best for the body and i think with science we have the possibility verify it now, it should be simple. i really want a simple answer but i guess its all about experiment and seeing for yourself. right now i am really confused after trying amen ra protocol, veganism, i really dont sure. the think is that the way those cows are taking care of now is just disgusting to think eating that, its all about the money now.

@LfcCharlie4 do you think eating just fruits and veggies will do good to me after you read this book you talked about? and maybe oats sometimes, even if i dont have the time to read the book and do the cleansing in the book?

@AleksM after vipassana retreat i did i continued to meditate a bit every day but im not sure i tried to be aware of the rising and the falling of breath but found it impossible because for axample while im at work at the kitchen i found myself being aware of every act and saying it to myself in mind, walking, walking, walking to bathroom, opening the door, or going here, listening, i dont sure if its the right way to maintain mindfulness. you said you always watched the breath? all day long the rising and falling of it? sometimes it gets to point when i feel the acts are getting robotic so i try to be more calm, i am interested on what you have to say because the idea of continuing the meditation practice threw out all the day sounds the right way to evolve. i sometimes think maybe im trying to hard and when someone is speaking to me i try to say listening, or when i say something and say to myself, waiting for an answer, interesting stuff. sometimes i think maybe i should drop it all but then i maybe i will start to act without awareness i will get the default which is not awareness, tricky stuff. im glad it worked for you it all sound very profound

@susanyzm you right Susan, i understand this more now and realize that all those big movie directors and musicians which i admire had very different life and situation and everyone acts, looks, have different body and psyche. and well i already paid for the course so i cant just drop it i feel like this would be very not smart, i need to pick some course and then to master it and study for a year and work at it couple of years, i thought about saving enough to buy a house and rent it or something like that afterward or just save enough and then pursue the things i feel passion and curiosity about. anyways it was a good choice because i will have better paycheck and conditions i had enough of physical job. i think i am going to switch my course to the ethical hacking, and make this my main thing in life, chapter by chapter thank you for replying and helping))

hey guys, i will start by saying that i am re watching @Leo Gura LP course again to make sure i am clear about my purpose, its gold really. i work at a simple job which i dont like and dont seem to take a lot of energy and time from me. i always liked artistic stuff first photography later i thought about movies and now its the guitar and music. but i dont have time to grab the guitar, i realize i should minimize my habits and stop doing the meditation and yoga/exercise or at least minimize it to minimum. i feel so helpless because to be able to live from it you really need to be a legend, and have those hours and time to invest in it. how the hell i will become a legendary musician or film director, and have time to read the great books and the really high level stuff, such as retreats and all of this serious work and other stuff, i guess i should forget from it for a while although i find this stuff so interesting i went to a vipassana retreat and it felt intense stuff and saw how much this stuff needs to be done more. ( felt like i am going crazy and though about leaving the place, crying wile we all meditating suddenly, at the last day meditating almost all night, and the best moment was a felling of love that lasted couple of seconds which i cant explain its like it is all love, i heard some mother telling something to her child and it made me so emotional it was crazy and then it went away) baby steeping of course...i need to get money to just live, i already left parents house i am 22 soon, its hard but its the right way... i started digital marketing course because i realized i need some skills to make money, then got frustrated from it and the passion for it went because i am thinking why i will want to do this marketing for people that i most likely will not really believe in their product. so i thought maybe going to other course that called ethical hacking but i dont sure i can learn it its so much technical. i already invested the money so i should maybe stick to DM because the other one require extra money payment, which will take more time also,( the payment is way higher too so there is that), ( ethical hacking sound more interesting to itself to me but since i know its not my ultimate goal i dont sure if i should peruse it), or digital marketing...i guess DM can be beneficial later) take this whole phase of getting myself to place when i can forget about survival basic stuff, there is so much work a head of me,i though about just working at a basic job and do my music and research and stuff but that is a childish approach isnt it so? im stressing about this stuff so much i even talked to my parents about it and was vulnerable and ashamed they should see me like that i want to make them proud and be able to stop dabble in my thoughts and actions. sorry for it being so long i feel like people i really supportive here, i guess i should start figuring the solutions for myself because i see how easy for me to read posts and look for help and advice here, i know i am ready for this material i really want to die without no regrets, clearing needs to be done for sure, i cant evan go on bad at the time i wanted today because i streess about this stuff so much, i just need a plan to be able to go to sleep and know it and see it and then slowly do it. im going to look for a different job because i need some change from the place i work now for 2 years to have more balanced simple job. ( i work as a cook at a private restaurant that have a lot of problems with getting enough workers and poor management skills from the owners, basically working way to hard physically with twisted hours and schedule ) god its already too much i promise myself i will stop to rely on others so much and give my power like that, i feel free here to express this feeling...thank you all for being i honestly hope leo will see this and give me his advice. may you all live the best life possible peace love and fulfillment to all of you here!

@susanyzm @Average Investor @Average Investor thank you for replying brother, the thing is that yo need to provide so @susanyzm you completely right, being ''stuck'' is just natural that is how we can learn whats need to be changed. how it is working for you do you live from doing the thing you love? fulfilling life which collects mostly the thing you want to do and be able to afford that? i am thinking maybe i should just work a part time simple job to have enough for basic survival needs and have extra time to do my thing, my research and the things i am passionate about, the good books and knowledge. thank you for your advice i really appreciate it and wish you a great life!

hey everybody this is my first post here, i really feel a little bit confused and little bit helpless right now i also wanted to say i love the vibes here i read a lot of posts and it feels good to see so many people which are like minded and knows about leos content and more and are so engaged)) i work at a 9 to 5 job as a cook, and its been two years since i work there at the last couple of months i worked really hard because of lack of employees at this restaurant, the bosses are really not doing it from passion more like a Extinguishing fires approach to their business you know what i mean? so i kind of know after doing lots of different thing like photography, a tried to go to art school but then realized i love movies more and i had a phase that i really wanted to pursue that and now then i realized i have big passion for music and playing the guitar and creating a band and i have some cool vision and i enjoy perusing that. but then life hits me and all the employees that i worked with almost all gone so i had a feeling i should move faster toward my dreams. and my best guess was doing a digital marketing course so i can accomplish better Conditions at my day to day life job because right now i work physically so much that i am too exhausted when its weekend. couple of months go by, i moved to live alone, and now i see how its boring for me and i cant see myself doing that marketing stuff, i even got to know someone in that course that had some connecting and wanted me to basically do a business when we sell some scams on the internet of make money online,bitcoin revolution wolf of wall street movie kind of thing . and that didn't feel right so i am not gonna do it, so now i am thinking about changing my course to ethical hacking because that sound more interesting suddenly although at the start my plan was learning something which have guaranteed job, and this one has even more money pay check in it. so i really have this jump here and there mechanism in me i see that. and i am thinking wait i am going to study then work for a year or two to save and what then i can work on my music and do that? and i am worried that then if i need money and i want to go back to work i cant because a lot of things changed and if i am not perusing that career seriously i cant have a real value there, because i need to be aware always of the changes in this neigh and i cant really approach it like that comfy pillow approach to get money in good conditions and something which is pretty interesting and challenging can you see the way i see it? i told my boss i want to quit for half time job to be able to study this course and have enough just to pay my bills. but i see it will take a long time since he will find enough workers. i am thinking maybe i am just fooling myself and i should quit that job that my boss said he will give me a raise after i asked twice and he said yes and he didn't. i work too hard there and they dont seem to care or even fix stuff in their business that just basic and they are waiting for it to be broken. they dont even help get the whole food done they prefer let their employees run without rest and literally smoke weed and just chill, i love them and the place but those are real things that are going on and its hard to be positive all the time when you see the approach is still Complacent you know? nothing seems to really change on a deep level and i know its the easiest to say this things on others but its real, you work there and it gets worse and one of the employees that left told me that when i just started there my I laughed and didn't really felt that, it is like that. they simply dont have management skills you know. not i am thinking maybe i should just quit, give them a month or two and say goodbye and just find a job that i am able to just pay enough for rent basic survival needs and work on my music, that kind of garyvee approach, and read books, do consciousness work , exercise, contemplate, take time off sometimes for a trip and do retreats, later doing psychedelics. i really looking for advice, i know i should be strategic but maybe i am doing it backward what do you brothers and sisters think? i wish you all a wonder full life if you actually read all that, and even if you dont, for all of you here, leo thank you for your work, and your life purpose course is really a work of genius that really opened my to so much stuff, i changed a lot because of you, you are fascinating human being. i highly recommend it, if you though that maybe you should but it, you should you wont regret it! wish you all the best!

@Average Investor @Average Investor thank you for replying brother, off course looking for approval is not the right thing to do, the thing is leo did not recommended to go threw this make a lot of money and then do your thing approach, and it sound silly to me a little bit to chase money at all, i just want to be able to live simplistically on a part time job and do my thing you know? read, research, playing music and testing my passions. and i kind of stuck here i see some of the people i worked with go and study on universities, others continue to work sleep routine and one of them 28 hes actually doing photography i pushed him to do it full time since i saw he loved it so much and hes trying . i look at him and i am like damm in his age i dont want to work full time at a job i dont really passionate and is fully my thing,i am 22 soon i forgot to mention, but for me it feels like i can make the most progress if i was just able to get enough time and space to let myself evolve. i almost completely dont use social media and the way i consume media. and i need to decide between digital marketing or other some thing i thought about siber ( ethical hacking) because one of my friends said that the work and money is guaranteed, the place i study they guarantee to find a work for you later too, but you see then if i do it for couple of years and i wont to quit to purse my real passion and read the books i really want, whats then? i sure cant just quit for a year or two and then come back to work because it seems you have to live it to be updated because the field is always changing, you see? i have some photography skills, i tried to do party photoshoot and i hated it and didn't seem to find work on personal photoshoots for artist, i did it mostly for fun i loved to shoot cool portraits, i dont know now its all seems like i perused to much spirituality, i did vipassana retreat once( it was great!), meditate every day and do work out or yoga and now i kind of thinking its taking too much time from me too...that is kind of where i am at, i also decided to move to live alone to have this space for my thoughts to align and now i realized i should take a cheaper place when the year is over, i also re watch leos course to make sure i understand it all, now i am trying to limit myself for one video per day because i tend to do something too much and this time management thing is really the thing i try to master to, to write down before sleep what i will do tomorrow for example. thank you for your good intentions to help, i wish you a lot of clarity and fulfillment
