@Byun Sean @dimaniser @Nahm This post talks about how the hierarchy flips on itself after self-actualization. But aren't those things possible without achieving self-actualization or having a Life Purpose? I don't know if I want enlightenment. But I want to be truly fulfilled and happy, which is what it can give from what I've seen.

@Nahm Can you get the fulfilment from Life Purpose from Enlightenment?

(5:18) Theoretically, what if we didn’t have to worry about money? What if we were born a billionaire with a trust fund? Would it be better to self-actualize first then self-transcend? Or would it be better to just short circuit to self transcendence since we wouldn’t have to worry about bills or any other thing below self transcendence on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and instead work on the (inverted?) pyramid above self transcendence. @Leo Gura what are your thoughts on this? How do I listen to my heart?

I'm having a lot of trouble understanding this video: You're Not Happy Because You Don't Really Want To Be After watching this video I felt completely demotivated in pursuing my passion, working on my purpose, making a career from my Zone of Genius, etc. Because if I can always be happy regardless of whatever happens, what's the point of doing anything? I'm not being accusatory, just curious, but doesn't this video contradict a lot of things that are taught here?

Should one pursue their Life Purpose before pursuing Enlightenment or Self-transcendence?

So unconditional happiness doesn't mean that we'll still live an actualized life if we stop seeking growth, right?
