  1. I think it just boils down to not bragging about what you're doing, let the results speak for themselves. Share what you're up to, but beyond a quick share, don't go too much into it, just state it and let it be. Otherwise you start getting into all sorts of gotchas. To me modesty is just how much learning does one do; books/lectures/mentors/paid courses. Nothing is more modest than that https://www.discount-supplements.co.uk/resource/michael-jordan-teachable-person-reason-successful/ According to his book, Michael Jordan The Life, one of his main strengths was his unquenchable thirst for info, his desire to learn and improve, many believe it was his inherent ability to learn and be taught that made him the success he is today. It seemed to many that Jordan was the perfect pupil, he was arguably the most teachable player going, a strength that made him a sponge to new information and self-development. Add to this a drive and determination to be the best at whatever he did. Although he was externally "immodest" he was internally modest in learning from everyone.
  2. Define modest, like many other modern words it has come to mean nothing.
  3. Are you not left wing?
  4. Read as many books from as many thinkers, religions, spiritual systems as you can. Also watch/listen to them on youtube if you are more of a visual or auditory learner. Find a mentor who is 10+ years ahead of you and gleen as much as you can from them. Study psychology, cognitive biases and as much as you can about the human brain.
  5. Most people are basically brain dead extremists. They think there is an alternative to self help, there isn't. You either get better or worse. You either move towards or away from your dreams. You either help yourself or hurt yourself. You either improve your body or it gets worse. You either become dumber or smarter. You either become more primitive or enlightened. People's minds are clouded by pleasure chasing activities where the options are endless; What chips will they use to stuff themselves? How many partners and with who will they sleep with? How many things can they buy? How can they impress even more people? How can they sleep even more? Which drugs and parties are best? Life is more binary than that, so naturally they assume that the endless options of their pleasure chasing lifestyle ALSO apply to "self help" or a million other options (there's just 1).
  6. You're the opposite spectrum of him, you espouse left wing views, you're just more crypto about it than he is or you try to be. Although, you are the same as him. You are on the same tier as him, both of you have glaring holes in your sage game.
  7. More: Experiences, in ALL fields People Music Movies Documentaries Art Lectures/audiobooks Books of all genres Expressions; movement, drawing, writing, creation of any sort Logic Emotion The more you engage all of these, the more creative you will be. Creativity is just a matter of linking things together that weren't together before, i.e: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDAEL8jqo9
  8. >No arguments >HURR DURR U RE TROLLING!!!! The "Enlightened folk" LMFAO About as enlightened as materialist Leo (relative to 90% of the world) calling Tai Lopez being a materialist. Enjoy your bathtub jerk sessions ROFLLLLL
  9. I'm 100% dead srs, Tai MOGS Leo into infinity; Leo jerks off in his bathtub and doesn't give away shit, Tai is with beautiful women and has actually helped people BEYOND knowledge, Leo is stingy and selfish. How many Tai Lopez videos have you watched and why is it less than 3? Leo has millions of dollars, he's a materialistic twat relative to 80% of the world, why doesn't he give everything he makes away to the third world? #Hypocrite #SoWoke LMFAO
  10. How? By whining that things aren't left wing enough? LMFAO
  11. How do you know I haven't? I have 2/3 the amount of videos that Leo has in 9 months ROFLLLL. But its not a competition, I genuinely wish him the best and I view him as an excellent teacher, someone who i learned a ton from I'm just not an extremist like you guys. I don't view Leo as a God or soul mate, I just view him as a teacher.
  12. Yeah because like Eastern philosophy, you can't become strong so you instead venerate weakness, you ever read Nietzsche? HURR DURR NO EGO "Tai Lopez is a materailistic twat" "JP is a charlatan" Oh Leo, you learned everything only to learn NOTHING. Go jerk off in the bath tub to a woman Tai regularly has sex with ROFLLLLL (you don't care though ahahahahhahahahahahahaha)
  13. Look at the state of your students vs the state of his. Where are your student's QUANTIFIABLE results? Compare that to his. How much money have you given away? Compare that to his. Compare the women, people he hangs with to the people you hang with. Sorry, Tai is more of a sage than you and his/his students results show this, redoing Terrence Mckenna with Alan Watts is nothing all that interesting. You have stopped your development, you succeeded, the same thing happened to Tai, Tai just went further than you. It's ok, you can chill here in your echo chamber where no one challenges you, but people slurp you up. You need to get back to lifting You need to get back to reading You need to start a serious artistic pursuit; acting, drawing, singing, new form of content creation You need to do more giveaways You need to meet more people But this isn't gonna happen, the forum is too comfy, the validation is too comfy, it's going to take more time for you to overcome this (if you do).
  14. Ty sir gl to u as well
  15. How did you first react when you heard about Covid 19 in terms of emotions? What about when the lockdown began and as it progressed, logically and emotionally? What did you do during the lockdown?
  16. https://www.quora.com/Is-Leo-Gura’s-Actualized-org-a-scam Oh LOOK CRITICISM Means nothing Sorry Tai preaches a more holistic and complete worldview. Tai has more applicable, easy to understand and practical ideas that he has even systematized more. When Leo writes a book, I'll perhaps change my mind. Tai has also given away over a million dollars worth of things, how much has Leo given away?
  17. Tai Lopez mogs him tbh. Leo has greater depth, but Tai teaches you way more practical/useful and interesting stuff.
  18. Timespan? But you're right, he's not .00000000000000000000000000001%, he's only .0000000000000000000000000001% NOT a master!!!!!!
  19. Oh idgaf about the credit, feel free to use all the material I post on here, it's not even "mine" per se haha.
  20. Yw, hope you enjoy (I def did!) and if you got any qs/comments/ideas lemme know, I love to chat those books as they are among my favs!
  21. Poker, I play 20-30 hours a week, whenever I want, it's chill af (only 1 table) and it's 1 on 1. Here are my results: I have systematized the entire thing and I teach it, if you want to learn the rules and are keen, you can do well. I guess it depends where you live as the first year under me (we go 50/50), I'd expect 15-20k for those hours, 30k wouldn't be unheard of, but it would be somewhat hard. Long term, 40-50k is where you'd be. It depends on where you live though, if you live in Eastern Europe or Africa or if you live at home, it's awesome. If you live in NY, London or California alone....not so much. Anyways I'm always looking for more students, but you gotta be willing to do the repetition and learn the rules/terms.
