  1. I've been through the life purpose course once, and am going through it again more thoroughly. As I'm doing this and taking a closer look, my intuition tells me that different sections in the course that are supost to be separate and provide separate results all kind've blend together(which is not what is suppose to happen). For example the values section is suppost to give you an accurate list of your top 10 values, and the life purpose course is suppost to give you a clear life purpose. But this doesn't seem right, It feels like all the sections just point you towards various aspects of your higher self. The whole core concepts section such as the commitment, mastery, 10,000 hours, vision, etc... really just point to a core value of growth. And the contribution aspect just points to a core value of contribution. The aspects of just "doing you" and achieving a life purpose no matter how strange it is point to a core value of authenticity. And the section of the course of rooting through fears/doubts /negative values points to a core value of peace of mind/ clarity in having a deep insightful understanding of yourself. To summarize, since the whole course is about self discovery, it feels a little inauthentic or forced to try and put the discoveries into categories and sections. Is this just my ego making a complication and a problem where there is none, or should I listen to my intuition and sort of tweek Leo's course (even though he strongly advises not to)
  2. Hi, I'm in high school. Leo's last video made me realize that my current way of doing things, searching for more success in social situations and with girls, may not be the answer for filling the empty hole inside me. I believe that deep down I need this success to gratify the self-image that I am attractive and outgoing. I've been doing meditation, visualizations, and affirmations, but I don't know how to address the root of the problem causing me to chase fake growth, and getting depressed when I don't get it. Any thoughts? Thank you
  3. When I was younger, I didn't fit in and wasn't attractive. Even though now that I am attractive and do fit in, I feel disconnected because when I'm in a social situation my thoughts are centered around what others are thinking of me. This is because somewhere along the way, the belief was ingrained in me that I only have worth and am only truly ok, if others think so. What I think I truly need deep down is to have an unconditional sense of worth that is not based on how well I believe I am being who I should be. So far my para-dime to get the sense of worth and belonging has been to get a new girlfriend or make new friends, because I believe that that success and validation will act as a signal telling me that it's finally ok to stop chasing and to accept myself. And when I don't get that validation and get rejected, that acts like an assertion to my fears that I am somehow deep down defective or needing of more muscles, social skills, and better looks. I essentially base my worth on whether or not I feel others approve of me. How do I change this?
