You can do something for many many hours and not see improvement For me playing overwatch I was trying to get to a high rank and was playing a lot but saw no improvement over 150 hours of playtime. I knew what my sticking point was (anxiety during games) but I kept practicing other things. Eventually I had no choice but to surrender to the anxiety. I was avoiding the thing that would actually help me (because of the discomfort and change it would bring) and was doing things that had virtually no impact. Once I surrendered to the anxiety and committed to playing good i climbed several ranks So I think my lesson here was, you must do the thing that will actually help you. Def a great example of real work vs fake work. Like leo said - self honesty. It takes some courage and willingness to step into your greatness which will require discomfort and possibly some identity change I have many examples of this tbh in my life. It all depends on your conscious intent

lol i went through it thinking that it didnt apply to me. on second thought that might mean it might extra apply to me LOL

There is a book by michael stainer called the advice trap that I enjoyed. Especially the first few chapters. Basically, after some serious errors of giving people advice, i learnt that advice is incredibly contextual, and to give advice, requires a deep understanding of someone's situation and dilemma. I picked up this book and found it validated my experience and talks about that concept in decent length from the beginning as well as some other great concepts. I know that this guy speaks from experience because this is an insight that I do not hear often, if ever He is a practicing life coach

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I've been thinking a bit about how some people have said some and done rude things that can be generally thought as unacceptable. But sometimes when I bring this up to people, they will defend their actions of what they did, or don't fess up, or lie about their actions, insult me back, continue to repeat things like this etc. Basically anything besides taking accountability for their actions. It is very difficult especially when it's your parents, or someone who is very close to you. does anyone have any insight onto this matter? Really appreciate it

@StarStruck Dig the article Would you consider communication/networking/people skills a meta skill Not a leo one though

Knowledge isn't useless. It can help you build relationships, guide you to the Truth, build businesses etc. It's limited in the sense that it alone doesn't give you the fruits of the knowledge. Knowledge =/= actuality experience can give you even deeper knowledge because you learn with the experience of it. The experience gives you learned knowledge which is much deeper. By deeper I mean it becomes a strong knowing But experience is limited because, as a single person we only have one brain with limitations. And the collective knowledge of others can improve your own model of the world But the learned model of the world is limited because you don't know which is wrong/right and experience will help you develop that model It's a balancing act between internal/external information It's not either/or, knowledge/wisdom. It's a balancing act. Both

@Parththakkar12 how come connection is a feminine trait? Isn't this just a human thing. Genuinely curious

'Question' ability - asking quality questions Skill of introspection - (need to rewatch this for better understanding so I can summarize) Meta Learning - your learning skill. (Drawing distinctions, observation, behavior change) Meditation skill Consciousness - ability to raise your consciousness Self deception - attunement to your own and other self-deception

Leos video on forgiveness might be useful?

this is all so counterintuitive to me maybe there's a dimension where we don't really worry if we are attractive or not and just do our own thing ? i'm thinking to actually be this "alpha man" it's about just embracing who you are . alpha = self acceptance? idk lol

This framing I think would create a powerful , inspiring video

i wondered this too. why care about social justice? if you've been on the side of the pain, you will deeply understand the other people's pain and you will be more understanding and compassionate to their struggles. because from my POV, actual injustice is occurring and when you understand some form of that pain you will want to stand up for other's who are facing similar pains i guess the central point is empathy -
why do you feel consciousness is dogma? where is the trap that you perceive?

i've never had this issue before but i've heard things about non dual therapists? like therapists specializing in non duality and these issues. on psychology today there are tons of therapists you can sort through (in their descriptions). what you would do is google "spirtuality therapist psychology today" and then use the search to filter by city. but most therapists do online help through zoom so city shouldn't matter so you have the whole america. and then what I do is i look in the descriptions for certain key words, or an indication that they may have some understanding/expertise in your issue then you can email them and call them further to see if they understand what you're going through and if you like their approach with it

yeah yo but i think it doesnt matter because there are tons of great girls out there. and as you heal and develop yourself as a man this stuff won't bother you as much and you'll be able to get women with relative ease

Jacob Morres replied to Valwyndir's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
personal flaw or teaching flaw? teaching flaw is the trap of thinking that his knowledge is perfect. he is very prone to error and sometimes his advice is not relevant to you because of context. also moralistic sometimes i dont like to have personal flaws on people, we are all learning and growing . but there are definitely limitations to his teachings another is - leo's way of being, and what is right for leo, and what is right for some people is confused with what is right for you. like entrepreneurship is something leo proposes but it might not be right for you given the context. -
Thank you so much I appreciate it
