@Nightwise Maybe not forever but his course and video will for sure give you some insight into why you're doing it and the tools to stop.

At my high school we sit down in every lecture and I'm thinking that it will cause me health problems later on even if you search up the effects of sitting down for too long there's increased heart attack and much more. At home, I have a standing desk and I'm fairly active. Just worried that I will get health problems later on in life from sitting down too much any advice would be appreciated

I know why I go off track because it gets too overwhelming so I have to start with less but then when I go off track I feel so much resistance that when I try to get back on track by watching Leo's motivational speech for example my mind just says NOPE and I find some distraction like junk food or gaming. Any advice on getting back on track would be highly appreciated

I saw this girl at a party and we kissed. Am a virgin and next week my parents aren't home so I was thinking about having sex with her because I got this deep craving for sex because I feel like am missing out on something since all my friends are doing it and because I don't want to miss out on the opportunity I have. At the same time, I feel horrible just having sex with a girl I don't even like that much just to meet a need. Also, I feel like sex is an easy pleasure and I want to have sex with her so I can distract myself from the real work I have to be doing. But on the other side satisfying my need will maybe make the craving go away and I will see that sex is not really fulfilling me and I will go back to doing the real work. Advice, please

@flowboy Invite her to hang out days before I try to have sex just to get a good rapport or on the day try I'm trying to have sex with her then, in the beginning, we watch some Netflix and get to know her a little bit better?

@flowboy Thanks! Is there any way that I can show her without telling her I just want to have sex with you?

@Leo Gura Good rapport? Like being handsome, Not shy, Masculine, etc.?

@Preety_India But that would hurt so much if I got rejected @flowboy Yead I once faked my feelings for a girl and told her friend that I didn't like her and got absolutely obliviated

@Parththakkar12 I heard Leo say that you could make or break your life in your teen years so I was just wondering if it was a bad time to get some success sexually that's my core question because I feel bad going to parties and hanging out with my friends for hours not working on myself.

@flowboy True @Preety_India Well, should I tell her I just want to have sex? Or be more subtle about it and ask her if she wants to come to my place

@Parththakkar12 But I mean wouldn't that be a low consciousness thing if you are trying to acquire pleasure from that?

@Parththakkar12 Yeah didn't mean need but desire or drive. So I don't know should I then go fulfill that desire or understand why sex won't bring me the true fulfillment I'm after? Also, should you have sex with women just to have sex with them or would that be a foolish thing to do? (Would you be wiser of then doing it?)

@Parththakkar12 Thanks for the answer. I don't really want to be in a relationship with her just want to have sex with her but at the same time, I don't know if she wants that or if she would rather make it a long-term thing which I kind of fear because if it isn't a girl I like and I have to spend time with her to sacrifice my own growth there's just no way am I doing that. It puts too much pain on knowing that I could be doing something better. I was thinking that I would call her and ask if she wants to come over and have some fun, so she hopefully realizes I just want to have sex with her but no long-term thinking. Is this a bad way of going about it I don't want to be an asshole?

I don't know if visualization will work if I visualize once a day but on different goals every single day?

I'm stuck in a rut and can't get myself to take action because I resist emotional labor since it's so painful. How do I accept it?

@peanutspathtotruth Thanks!

As the title says. I watched this video where Leo does a guided mobilization from 25:00 I just wanted to know if this is part of the path to needing to mobilize yourself every day to not fall into low consciousness stuff like playing video games or eating junk food etc. If anyone has gone through the process of mobilization to keep staying on track did it then become less and less as you kept going with self-actualization?

I went on semen retention for 1.5 years and just recently came back masturbating. I do it daily and after I ejaculate I feel a pain in my urethra (The urine and sperm track) When I wasn't on semen retention I didn't experience this problem but I think it might having something to do with semen retention. Maybe it's because I went on semen retention for quite a while that my penis muscle needs to get trained again I have no idea. Has anyone experienced something like this?

@cupe @Spence94 So true

I procrastinate a lot and it has got really bad I can't watch one self-help video without going on youtube to distract myself. Also trying to release the resistance creates too much resistance for me to even try. I feel frustrated and restless in my body because one part of me want's to change but another doesn't. This creates a lot of suffering so I just distract myself. I watched Leo's video on a vision for the actualized life but I don't feel a strong motivation from that. (BTW writing this from a depressed state so there maybe be some principles I'm missing Idk)

@sda I'll try

@sda I feel like my ego will use that opportunity to slack off and backslide even more. So when I have taken the two days off I will not do the work to overcome resistance. @Spence94 I 15 and experiencing properly my worst ego backlash it even feels kinda good to slack off and do instant gratification stuff (I'm watching Setting Proper Expectations by Leo Gura hopefully that can help me)

@bejapuskas I doubt there is and I haven't found what I'm into yet only the values like leadership, contribution, and so forth.

@SamC Right now I'm still in school so I will try the technique to be more motivated to study. I have the life purpose course but feel unmotivated to do it. @bejapuskas Yeah I find that very true when I was working on the life purpose course I found my top ten values and after I had done the exercises I literally started to cry because they were so aligned with what I wanted. But now I become pissed and annoyed if I can't tap into that within one visualization. (Maybe that's a perfectionism problem) @Danioover9000 Yeah, I also remember psycho cybernetics talking about how you should visualize every detail of that vision to get the most out of it.
