this is a common question with personal development but I just feel so overwhelmed with all this stuff I should get done on myself that I shut down and don't do anything productive. I gotta go to work, find time to exercise, cook, shower, meditate/yoga, read, work on my life purpose, contemplate important questions for myself, school/study, give some time to socialization. how do I choose which things I should prioritize, how do I manage my time??

I was always somewhat aware how much I fibbed and lied but I kind of realize how big of a problem it is now. I've lied about so many useless things that don't matter and even some big things. I sometimes exaggerate stories or make up some elaborate stories about things that have never happened. My main issue is that I have lied to one guy I've been obsessed with for many years. I've mostly just lied to him about guys that I have dated that have never even existed, to make it look like I'm not obsessed with him. But to make sure those stories seem realistic I've had to make up extra side stories and relay them to people he might corroborate those details with and I'm just sick and tired of all these calculations I've had to make. what's even more frustrating is that this guy does like me and I've realized that if I was 100% real with him he would have liked and respected me even more. I wish I could go back but now I just seem like a psycho if I were to confess everything. How do I come back from this? How do I explain myself, what do I do?

@Hello from Russia bruh Jesus was born on Christmas... pretty sure he's a Capricorn

@Hello from Russia pisces

I'm kind of on the same boat with you. I'm reading a few books from Leo's book list and I just watched his "power of asking questions" video yesterday. the books I read that have been helpful so far are the success principles by jack canfield and the big leap by gay Hendricks. his power of questions video gives a long list of questions to ponder and contemplate that will help you bring more clarity into your life. sometimes it's just about asking the right questions which was the missing part in my life

I don't think he's orange at this point. at most he maybe has a few specs of orange here and there but I think he is mostly yellow.

"I don’t like how the establishment feeds us toxic food, forces toxic values, then sells us pills like WE are the mentally ill ones. Maybe it’s the environment they made for us that’s sick." I agree on some level but how do I come at this from a stage yellow perspective

I remember Leo saying he will post a q&a video after he reached 1 million subs. what happened to it?

I think I have a great idea for this online business but I would have to learn coding in order to do it. I'm not really passionate about tech but I am passionate about the concept I want to sell and I definitely would have used this product if I saw it. Except how do I know whether to act on it?

I know he's enlightened and everything and he's way more actualized than anyone else but is he blissful? is he high on life? does his health hold him back from being ecstatic?

is it possible to not be truly passionate about anything at all? what if you are passionate about something but you are still not motivated. can you turn any passion into a lucrative career?

I'm a 22 year old female, I was exchanging a few messages back and forth with this guy. the convo was going very well and flirty and sexual and then this morning I saw he read my message about 2 hours ago and hasn't respond? should I double text or just leave it? what's more attractive

I know that the government isn't obviously planning some big conspiracy like this to control our minds but why is it that so many things that are mandated by the government have clear harmful effects to us? how can I prove that the government isn't trying to depopulate the earth?

I thought he has a degree for philosophy?

how do you guys get a good quality consumption of b-vitamins? I heard nutritional yeast is a great to way to increase your intake of b-vitamins but a lot of them come with fortified vitamins the non-synthetic yeast is very expensive. is there any supplement or foods you guys take to increase it?

I was really interested in reiki to help me heal some past trauma and help me get over my relationship but Sadhguru says it is not wise to allow someone else to meddle with your energies and your karma? what are your thoughts?

whether that is true about Sadhguru or not, Sadhguru himself says that anytime you come across something that is not in your experience disregard it as truth even if he says it himself. it is not in your best interest to believe or disbelieve. if you read Harry Potter and all that stuff about horcruxes and Voldemort, Sadhguru himself said that that is kind of how he is still alive just without killing people. some of his most devoted followers have given a part of their "pranic" bodies to Sadhguru so he can continue to live at the expense of their life but before he says that he says "don't believe all of this nonsense, find out if it is true for you.

Sadhguru is offering Shambhavi Mahamudra online for the first time ever. at first I got really excited but now I have some doubts about the experience. apparently it's quite common to feel as if nothing is actually happening or working but then proponents of the practice say you must stick to it everyday and let go of expectations. the process is described as a spiritual purification on speed which means you may experience intense negative emotions and pains. someone on this forum said that you lose your libido which I'm worried about. my point is what was your Shambhavi experience like? when did you see results, what sort of negative experiences did you have and why do you think it is worth it to continue?

@EmptyVase would you say it helps with releasing early childhood trauma? can it help heal blocked chakras? I can tell I'm really blocked in my root chakra

here is an article about crony beliefs I found really cool and helpful: https://meltingasphalt.com/crony-beliefs/

why is it that so many gurus and spiritual people preach semen retention? is it really that bad to jizz out from time to time?? I think I saw Leo saying it's pointless to resist it. why would he say the opposite?

@Leo Gura could you please make an updated video on dating, relationships and sexuality. challenges each sex faces, what each sex's belief structures are like, what are their survival challenges, core truths they must understand to be successful with the opposite sex, the psychology behind dating and relationships etc. I know you already have videos about this but it was years ago and I'm sure you can give a more in depth discussion. I really wanna hear your actual thoughts about all of this and more but it seems like it's really hard to do on this forum cause you're always getting attacked.

@Leo Gura when is this video being posted

I have this friend who I think is really smart but he believes all kinds of conspiracies. One of the latest ones he's really buying into is during 9/11 there was a third tower. What can I say to make him think about how short sighted he's being? I'm struggling because I can't formulate an argument on why that isn't true.

I'm not here to talk about conspiracy theories, I'm just wondering why this wasn't a big hype. People have been talking about UFO's and debating conspiracy theories for so long and the Pentagon has confirmed that this is real footage so why didn't this blow up?
