  1. I'm not a fitness coach but I guess social media presence. Even a thousand real IG followers could make you more money than you might think. Especially if you're good and they really see something in you.
  2. Just dont tell them. What do you mean by seniors?
  3. Whatever you're good at usually ends up being fun.
  4. I think right now it can falsely flag those who either use mobile data in the same location as a different forum user or those who use some of the popular VPNs from time to time (which would be basically most people who are into IT). Which could theoretically be solved by checking what IP they use most often and what IP they have created the account with. But that has to be done manually, since developing an algorithm to do it accurately would require a good, paid programmer for 100 - 200 hours. There's a reason services like Netflix don't just run around banning people with the same IP.
  5. Something like what were your friends doing? -> Yes. What would you guys consider to be the dangers of doing AP? If any, since you have quite a lot of experience with this. -> Maybe getting too addicted to it. Also it's important to be careful when coming to metaphysical conclusions based on astral projection. It's a nice tool. Not the peak of all experience or anything like that (some people seem to treat it like that).
  6. The easiest method is in "The Phase" book by Michael Raduga. That alone is enough to AP 3 days a week, multiple times a session, pretty quickly. Just ignore his metaphysical understanding of the phenomenon. He doesn't think it's real. Getting real, verifiable input is definitely possible. It took me a few hundred astral projections to verify though. I've had close to a 1000 of them. Getting it to a level where you have lots of control, the APs are long enough (it's possible to have 1+h super stable experiences), where you can always get reliable info etc. is the real work. Getting your first AP is the easy part.
  7. Create a banishing sigil and charge it. Or if you want a premade ritual, which could be more effective for your, the lesser banishing ritual of the pentagram.
  8. Yeah, that's definitely true a lot of the times. In my experience. Even though there are definitely some really solid people at the lower stages.
  9. Can you do fewer work hours so you get some space for trying to make your passions your source of income?
  10. Your control is in Gods control which you can get closer to if you give up your control. But that has nothing to do with the frequency of your LDs. Read "The Phase" and try again. You will succeed.
  11. It is actually possible to stay in contemplation-state a large portion of the day. And it only gets deeper and deeper and leads to much better stuff than all-day-awareness. Gotta start with mundane questions though if your state is not high enough outside of retreat. But the states you get from contemplation can be then automatically accessed again and deepened.
  12. When talking to "someone else" it should be like "Why the hell am I talking to myself?" "Why the hell are my thoughts so perfectly synchronized with what they'll say next?" It should feel and perform LITERALLY like a lucid dream (except your will while sober will only be able to affect chance, not completely reimagine stuff and fly for example - that would probably require a much higher state than this). Speaking from experience. I experienced what your original post is too but that's not the actual thing nonetheless it is still a good line of thought.
  13. Unfortunately there's no shortcuts. Except maybe training your concentration. Anything, even highly technical texts, is easier to comprehend after a long concentration session. Speed reading is useless.
  14. I like to do classic holotropic breathing with a breath hold at the end of a 30 minute session more. It's more effective for me that way. Like it can get pretty trippy. I've tried this channel too but it was weaker. Still pretty good and some people might have different experience than me.
  15. Literally just Google a website where people post (it'd be better if you choose something smaller than the most popular ones) what they need and answer a few and you should have your first order in a matter of days. The catch is that you still have to have some skill you can offer.
  16. The first business for most people should generally be something that doesn't require much capital and should almost never require any employees. The other option would be getting investors which would be needless pain in the butt. Hence why copywriting, programming, consulting, helping, graphics etc with SEO are all great options because you don't need to invest money.
  17. Try to teach a few people individually how to do whatever you are good at for free (or for a fee because why not) just to see how it feels and to learn something new. Now try to imagine how it would feel if you couldnt just simply refuse to work with people who are hard to work with.
  18. 1) Get a a basic full time temporary job. Move out. You are 26 dude. 2) Get rid off your hobies etc and after your main job work for 2 -4 hours on building a better way to make money (eg. learn programming -> build some proof that you are qualified, this can mean undercharging to build your portfolio or building a wordpress plugin or a game mod or creating a website where you show your graphic art or whatever). If you dont have the energy take some modafinil and do 22/2 intermittent fasting (temporarily). 3) transition from your crap job to your less crap way to make money 4) either stay there for a while to save up or immediately start working on your life purpose or on finding your life purpose in your free time (it may be very beneficial to set a strict time when you do business!) or if it is satisfying just keep doing that, you will already have a better job than most people This is way faster than going the university route. It just requires more discipline because nobody is going to tell you what to do which can be a downside when you are not used to it yet.
  19. I feel you. This stuff takes time to figure out. All options come with their drawbacks so it's a matter of choosing what's best for you. What I'm doing with freelancing has it's own drawbacks. And I'm still figuring out the best way to structure my day too. Working out is a nice idea. I've been returning to that too. Do you have some sort of time tracking system where you log when you work or is it basically do the work and it's up to you to structure your day?
  20. Sin literally means doing something that is contrary to your highest goal because your ego distracted you. Gotta make distinctions between religious monkeys and legit deep metaphysical insights of ancient dead guys.
  21. If you have trouble putting it into action then Alex Becker has some amazing advice for that. I mean his old videos. But it shouldn't be hard to find.
  22. Here's how I deal with having a sort-of-nice work situation that I dislike. It works very well but it's a crutch: So, this might not be the most healthy solution since it's basically a crutch but since you probably don't want to do it your whole life anyway, here's what I do when I have to do work stuff that feels like I'm wasting my days away (I do mostly programming and other IT stuff freelancing while also trying to do well at university): - small dose (mostly 1/4) armodafinil up to 5 times per week (this really removes any sort of emotional resistance you have to your job, so it's great if you already know what you're doing). Also I meditate for the duration of the comeup which mixes the effects of meditation and moda very nicely for me. - LSD microdosing 3 times a week, HHC (legal in most places) small dose edible 2 days (assuming you work 5 times a week). If you don't have access to LSD then LSA (legal in most places) in small doses does the trick (I've tested that :P) This really takes away any sort of emotional resistance to work while also creating a nice mental space to have productive, strong contemplations when there's not much work load so you kill two birds with one stone. It also allows you to tune it down if it's getting in they way of anything if the doses are small enough. The main downside is that you won't build discipline and might even lose some. Which could be countered by fasting for a few days a month.
  23. Being a man means self mastery > comfiness. Bcause self mastery is not comfortable. Nothing wrong with comfiness, everything has its place. Is understanding easier with self mastery? Why? I think it might be independent as long as you have created an environment (environment includes your level of consciousness) where you can contemplate enough. I will continue this contemplation later when I have more time, but I am starting to get some interesting insights.
  24. My family has been in the same situation. I won't go into details. Take the inheritance. Delayed grief is normal. You will grief when and if it's right for you. I think delayed grief is a normal survival defense mechanism.
