Title says it all. Was totally inspired from this thread. A man in his twenties wanting to get a woman in their thirties. A man in his early twenties trying to get with a woman in their late twenties. Or even just a guy trying to get with a girl that's a few years older.

I'm pretty sure "introverts" have the best introspection skill.

@thisintegrated I'm pretty sure you drop the model of Spiral Dynamics at Stage Turquoise.

I've seen YouTube Comments stating that the main reason why they learned English was to be able to listen to Leo.

I desire to work hard and I fear losing myself to hard work.

SO many people operate like this. People are so ideological towards justifications of their vices. To the point where they'll exclude people that don't partake in their lifestyle.

@aurum honestly I'm still trying to fully understand what "frame" even means.

For me I just and say "I only drink alcohol when I feel like I want to and I just don't want to drink alcohol right now." If I need alcohol - to start having fun - to gain courage I've already made a mistake. Alcohol cannot give me those things. That has to come from a sober state first. I really value the state of consciousness that I'm in and I can have a lot of fun while sober. I am always the person having the most fun, the silliest and the most sober. It's actually pretty fun getting people to think I'm plastered and then telling them I'm completely sober, I get like massive respect for the amount of confidence that I would exude. "This guy knows how to have fun." I would have my water that I'm drinking and I'll be like slamming it down and be like "damn that's some spicy water!". This thread inspires me to make a similar one...

Anthony Metivier's master class called the Magnetic Memory Method. Check out his YouTube and check out his website. He also writes books on how to learn languages really fast using memory palaces. Learn his technique and you'll be able to get fluency way faster than anybody else.

The thing people REALLY mean when they use the word Enlightement.

Yo bro save the awakenings for the rest of us, I'm still working on getting my first Awakening.

It really does depend what job you're working. Experiences that I have heard about is that you're working for the government and have to jump through so many hoops all the time. Dealing with people that don't want to deal with you, dealing with people in crisis. You have to have a real heart for it. The ones that do really love what they're doing definitely help change lives, but you need the patience of Jobe for many of them. Thick skin too. Some people love the shit out of it. Like I said, it also really depends on what you're looking into. I'm assuming you're looking into being a social worker? But what do you want to do specifically? At the end of the day if you're looking to be a social worker you always have to look at exactly what you're doing in the day-to-day actions and ask yourself if you enjoy experiencing THAT.

Creating something is a very good hobby. Way better than doing something like putting together puzzles. Now THAT'S a waste of time ?. My life purpose is teaching and speaking, yet I paint all the time as a hobby. I want to learn how to create music too! Remember to enjoy life while you're here! One of the greatest joys in life is creating something beautiful.

In my experience, whenever I criticize something for not being something else it's because I do not yet understand it completely and therefore I'm not able to fully love and appreciate it for what it is. One must first learn how to understand something, to get to the truth of the matter, which also allows you to love and appreciate it for what it is, as itself. It is only then that your mind will be at peace and then you can move forward with the best decision for your next step.

There's a lot of unintegrated healthy stage red a lot of people need. Creating inspirational examples of healthy stage red could be a fantastic pursuit of Art. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm getting the impression that you see stage red like something that's to be avoided. Whereas actually every stage needs to be integrated with a full healthy Pursuit. Maybe calling it "stage red cartoons" is the best way you can describe it right now, but maybe it's not stage red cartoons. It's actually cartoons that inspire and entertain. Think about this: How do you know what's actually useful for the world from the most holistic perspective??? What does the world actually need, that you can provide? The way I see it is doing something that will raise the consciousness of people. Raise the love in people's hearts. But then that just kicks the tin can down the road because then I ask, how do you know what's the best thing you can do to raise the consciousness of mankind on a holistic level? I personally intuit it has something to do with following love. Finding what that is for you is the challenge. Think about how that shaped who you are. Then there's me starting to watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic starting at age 16 lol. Have you looked around at what people are doing all day? Every day? We are CONSTANTLY consuming art and entertainment. This is not going away anytime soon. If you want to play a part in that process, that's perfectly fine. Just find where your heart is telling you to go and make sure you can contribute your zone of Genius wherever you go. Humans love stories. It's no accident why these animes are popular. Stories are what actually grounds our sense of reality. There's a reason why we create things like archetypes. Stories with archetype encourage us to pull meaning out of reality, and humans love to create meaning. Amazing stories help to evolve the Zeitgeist of our current culture and time. There's so many people that are inspired to take action their lives because of the stories they've seen in the anime/TV shows they've watched. https://youtube.com/c/ICEcoldJT this guy is a self-improvement channel and he's like obsessed with Eren Yeager from Attack on Titan. Think about the one punch man challenge. Don't even get me started on how much positive impact MLP:FiM has had on people's lives. It's a doozy. Ahem... Ultimately you have to do something that is a balance between what you really love and something you actually love the process of doing. For example: I really love amazing art but I actually hate the process of learning how to draw. Or the process of drawing itself. I freaking love music, but I'm not sure if I actually like the process of tinkering around with musical notes all day. I learned that I really love writing. I actually enjoy the process of writing a very detailed guide on something that answers all the potential questions someone may have. It seems that creating and running courses and seminars is where my zone genius lies. Have you done the life purpose course? It's basically a blueprint of how to live a high Consciousness life of positive contribution to the world. Feel free to reach out if you want to have a little voice chat conversation by the way.

@fopylo you've always been alive. It's just the YOU that is being talking about is not the body that you're experiencing. You are the Whole of your consciousness / Direct experience. That's the conceptual understanding I have of it.

@Leo Gura What do you mean by this Leo? Do you think you have a complete understanding of what happens? Or are you just speculating, hence the "My position is". The way I understand it is that you'll just keep on dreaming new stuff and I'll be like starting over. Giving yourself basically amnesia in the process of imagining a new dream. Imagining yourself forgetting the "previous" one. (Even though something like "previous" is imagined) Which is pretty terrifying. Like actual insanity. But what else would I have to do here? I literally have nothing better to do but to Imagine this right here because I'm bored. Existence is pretty insane.

When it came to stuff I had to study that I had a lot of resistance to, I would use the Pomodoro technique. (25 minutes studying with absolutely NO distractions and 5 minutes break) AND I would track my progress my moving physical objects like magnets, or objects in glass jars, that way my subconscious could see me making progress. I would also give myself big checkmarks on a Calander every day I put time in. Scheduling very specific times to get on it is very important too. This will mitigate procrastination. FORCE YOURSELF to set a goal, to set a time. Most of the resistance in just in starting the practice.

I found that reading every single day is very important because you'll always be finding new opportunities to apply that knowledge and that way the knowledge would be a lot more integrated. (I have to take this advice myself lol)

@Knowledge Hoarder Make sure you also pray to Leo five times a day on a DMT designed prayer mat, facing Las Vegas.

It's a cookie that's always in your pocket. Literally you'd be less addicted if you just screwed it into the wall.

@thisintegrated To add onto that, basically creating reference experiences. Psychedelics,shamanic Breathing, skydiving, cold showers/ice baths, running, lifting, dancing. Getting your body and mind into a different state of consciousness.

Wes Watson has been a really good resource for me.
