Lol you’re such a troll. You can work on Wall Street making 6-7 figures and still be a wage slave
-
I dont know what youre definition of wealth is, but that is definitely not true. Your life strategy is that of every wage slave.

I was being sarcastic in my previous post, may not have come through in text form. This all just sounds like boomer, Dave Ramsey advice and will not lead to a fulfilling life in my opinion. Your life advice is basically just "dont think too hard, live the same life as your parents and grandparents and everyone around you." Sure it may get you a solid income and an average life, but I think people on this forum desire for more than that.

Yessssss. People pleasing is the way to go. Every asian I ever met who never questioned their parents and just followed the status quo to become a doctor or lawyer is always so fulfilled in life.

Lmao absolutely not. Many of those people you admired succeeded in spite of the mental illness, not because of it. Just by the statistical rareness of mental disorders, it is more likely that 80-90%+ of the greatest writers were perfectly sane. People just tend to romanticize mental illness as being some form of creative wellspring when in reality its incredibly debilitating. Also if you want to be a writer, heres a good blogpost by a very commercially successful and perfectly sane writer, Ryan Holiday https://ryanholiday.net/so-you-want-to-be-a-writer-thats-mistake-1/ The opening lines are "There are two types of writers, Schopenhauer once observed, those who write because they have something they have to say and those who write for the sake of writing. If you’re young and you think you want to be a writer, chances are you are already in the second camp. And all the advice you’ll get from other people about writing only compounds this terrible impulse. Write all the time, they’ll tell you. Write for your college newspaper. Get an MFA. Go to writer’s groups. Send query letters to agents. What do they never say? Go do interesting things" If you admire these writers with mental illness, its probably because they had incredibly interesting life experiences and stories to tell, not because they were technically great writers.

Black Mirror has some interesting episodes where they torture people for basically infinity by digitizing their consciousness, trapping them for insanely long periods of time/infinity. The episodes were "White Bear," "Be Right Back," "The Entire History of You," and "White Christmas." I think there were also some other ones

^^^ This is probably my biggest one. In my opinion, the only responsible way to trip is to be alone in your room with no distractions + a journal. Also this is obvious for people who seriously do this work, but DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF PSYCHEDELIC SUBSTANCES. I have known a handful of people who see it as a recreational substance and just take it for fun at a party or they mix it with weed or alcohol and have had horribly traumatic experiences where required therapy for many months. I usually like to fast for like 4-8 hours before and prepare by writing down some questions to contemplate + meditating for like 30 minutes before ingesting. Also an actualized.org video before is a good primer to get your mind set up for blast off.

Just simplify Dans message to the core principles. Set a goal. Create a project centered around that goal. Then work at least one focused hour a day on that project. For his business advice, its also relatively simple. Find what problems you are facing. Educate yourself and solve those problems. Document the process and teach others how to do it in video form or a course.

^^^ Id do this, and after getting bored I would probably want to do something like Howard Hughes and open a production studio and make movies.

Also follow up question. Did aliens help humans build pyramids or stonehenge or other seemingly impossible structures? It seems plausible
-
Instead adopt the mentality that all a girls prior partners were just practice for you. Honestly sex with virgins is usually pretty trash. Have you ever gotten head from a girl whos never given head before?! Awful and painful
-
What is that supposed to mean? Do you actually think that in an infinite universe, theyre exists only a single "intelligent" life form. Also to me that was an unidentified flying object, or a UFO.

Im pretty sure its worldwide. I believe Mystery is based somewhere in Europe (Helsinki maybe?) And yes Mystery is one of the founding fathers of the PUA community. He is a central figure in the book "The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists"
-
I haven’t checked it out but I saw that Mystery has a new PUA forum https://www.skool.com/attraction-unleashed/about possibly could find some wings + advice there

I would be open to having a lifelong partner but I dont like the actual institution of marriage. If I really love a woman, I dont need any government certification or religious ceremony to prove it. Also I wouldnt consider entering a lifelong partnership until im 35+. I would be open to having kids, but only if I am set up very well financially. I wouldnt want to bring a child into this world if I couldnt give them an amazing life, like if I had Elon Musk money I would also probably have like 5+ kids.

Literally every older generation has said this about the newer generation lol https://historyhustle.com/2500-years-of-people-complaining-about-the-younger-generation/ 1700's "Whither are the manly vigour and athletic appearance of our forefathers flown? Can these be their legitimate heirs? Surely, no; a race of effeminate, self-admiring, emaciated fribbles can never have descended in a direct line from the heroes of Potiers and Agincourt…" 1800's "a fearful multitude of untutored savages… [boys] with dogs at their heels and other evidence of dissolute habits…[girls who] drive coal-carts, ride astride upon horses, drink, swear, fight, smoke, whistle, and care for nobody…the morals of children are tenfold worse than formerly" 1900's "We defy anyone who goes about with his eyes open to deny that there is, as never before, an attitude on the part of young folk which is best described as grossly thoughtless, rude, and utterly selfish" Get with the times boomer. If you study history, you will actually see that the newer generations are usually more progressive and socially conscious then the one that came before -

I think he means the Buddhist dogma that people dont dare question is stage blue. Same with fundamentalist christians. Jesus and the Buddha were likely beyond turquoise or transcended all stages. The people who blindly follow them without questioning are stage blue -

How does it alter your life whether or not it is staged?

Why can I run 10 miles without mental resistance outside on the ground but then want to blow my brains out at mile 3 on the treadmill?

Yes it is possible if the meal is large, like 2000+ calories. This guy David Sinclair even recommends it because he says digestion is like the main cause of aging.
