Hey there, i was thinking about how to go about self actualization and the problem that i face is that whenever i try to self actualize, like to meditate, read, contemplate, exercise. I always run into the same problem, which is that life starts to feel like a grind all the time. Since i study, and work as well, doing self actualization makes life too much of a hustle, and doesn't leave any room for just chilling and watching some youtube, or listening to music, or watching a series. Life becomes too much of a grind where on a daily basis, all that you're doing is performing, whether it's studying, or working, or doing self actualization. I need in my life plenty of room to relax and chill. And by that i don't mean to meditate or contemplate, since those are in my experience a hustle and work, not a relaxation or chill time. The solution would be to build my life gradually where i focus first on making money, and being financially successful, turning my passion and creative work (rap music) into my career, and then i would have plenty of time to do self actualization. But that will require years since first i am planning on finishing this year at the institute where i study physical education, then enroll in a translation and interpreting degree, to then after i complete it being able to finance my creative work (rap career). And then once my rap career is successful, i can then do self actualization work, because i will have more free time and energy. What do yall think ?

@Husseinisdoingfine nope set firm boundaries.

Since Leo rarely talks about these topics which are essential for building a great life, thought i would create this thread to develop a solid theoretical foundation for money, finances, wealth building... Feel free to share any videos or insights, you might find helpful towards that end.

@Ponder I tried veganism, not very practical. It's harder to be healthy on a vegan diet than on an omnivorous diet, you gotta do more planning, being more educated on nutrition... Not everyone is equipped to be vegan.

@Leo Gura can you respond to this ?

I always knew i wanted to be a rapper. Rap is one of my deepest passions. I already write rap in italian.

@Theprofessional I bet you didn't do much pick up to say that. If you approach thousands of women a lot of your limiting beliefs will be shattered. Women do not get attracted to your money because attraction isn't logical, it's emotional. And attracting a wife or a girlfriend is the same process as attracting a one night stand, because attraction is the same thing.

@Theprofessional I found this to be true, lmao, maybe not 270k per year, but like yeah you need money to do pick up effectively. Like you need money for a car, a house or uber and the hotel room... Plus entrances to clubs consistently... Plus you need the money to move to a better city/country... All of that takes lots of money. Plus money for dates... If you're parents can't help you with all of that and you're young, well what are the chances you'll get laid ? None. I've tried it. I've done 2500 approaches without getting laid. To do pick up you gotta be rich, in a nutshell. Leo just doesn't appreciate how bad most people in the world have it, to the point where they can't afford to do pick up, just on a money level. All of leo's content doesn't work for most people because they don't have enough money or time (because they have to work for the money) to put it in practice. Therefore realistically, instead of teaching us how to deconstruct rationality, he needs to teach us how to make more money to be able to then work on spirituality effectively, or on our dating life, etc... @Leo Gura What do you think?

School is just not for me, and i don't want a lot of money, i just want to be able to live a decent comfortable life. How do i do it outside the school/academic system ?

@Leo Gura Where is the video then ? lmao just joking, take your time.

@Leo Gura Yeah i realized over the years, that i do not need spirituality to be happy. If i have my health at 80, even without doing any spiritual work, i'll be fine. And if my health is bad and i am about to die, then be it. Basically a lesson in acceptance.

@Emerald Most guys are sexually frustrated. Having a girlfriend doesn't mean one is not sexually frustrated. You've only got one out of billions of hot girls, think about how frustrating is that. As men we crave variety, not just having one girlfriend.

@Something Funny Dude obviously spiral dynamics is group think, like there's not even a need for debate.

@Princess Arabia That's some bullshit, this guy was a sexually frustrated sri lankan, who rarely sees a hot white girl, and so he took his chance. lmao. Obviously.

@Something Funny Unpopular opinion : spiral dynamics is group think and low intelligence.
