Life is a game of survival .. among other things. Embrace this aspect of being human by separating your survival from spiritual pursuits. There is value to both- relatively speaking.

Does watching / reading 100 hours of content on rationality and meaning crisis count as aping? Just kidding It’s about to be a busy couple of months with all the new content shared

I wouldn't frame your situation negatively- it's a temporary stop gap you'll need to take as more doors open for entreprenuership. Consider making a salary a hold over until you're back on your feet, biggest thing is not getting comfortable with a salary for too long, or you'll not want to change it.

Rationality- one of many tools humans use to justify their subjective worldview as objectively true. We are all rational agents because the survival of our worldviews hinge on it .. until it doesn't. But that day would only come after we drop the need to survive. Goal isn't to drop rationality, but see it for what is-thus making it more truthful by first telling the truth about it. An intro to meta rationality This stuff is deep

at that point it isn't conformity. what is it? I need to contemplate that .. but I have a hunch it's more so an indication of curiosity and discovery

Can’t forget to add Diddy to this list. Too bad his ego got him prison time

There are also spiritually flavored egos who become rich and famous: examples: Aubrey Marcus, Jay Shetty

Can only happen through engaging with spiritual ideas that go beyond conceptual knowledge. 30+ years subscribing to the materialist paradigm is not easy crack. And I still haven’t cracked it completely. Insight is the tool used to excavate metaphysical truths about the nature and structure of reality beyond materialism. One of the highest thing a spiritual seeker can learn to wrestle with is the notion that experience is rendered not by some chemical process in the brain-one which we are unconsciously living. If not the brain, then where could experience be happening? Chewing on this for years have opened up some pretty cool corridors of my mind-but it’s also been scary. In any case- the game we play is falling into an infinite number of distractions that prevent us from pausing, contemplating and generating insight into the nature and structure of Reality , Consciousness and Mind. This is in essence God hiding from itself. But it doesn’t have to be God, as long as you recognize that it is all YOU and nothing else. Now that’s an insight for ya P.S. this post is coming from no one, and going to no one

Sometimes it’s not a good idea to share personal growth milestones with family. They are not the most encouraging at times, and can pull you down. Its good when your milestones are shared with others on a similar path. Keep up the good work
