I've been watching these E Comm guys, lots of them from the Netherlands, they are very conformist.. I only watch to get some info on how they get so rich lol, but in essence they all do the samethings, once they get some cash flow and financial success they all move to Dubai, they all network with one another and talk about ad creatives, scaling, supply chains and eventually turning the ecomm business into a Brand, then they go on trips to either Ibiza, or Marabella, rent an expensive house and cars for a week or mth and then work work work, and for a break in their day they go for coffee, workout by the beach, talk shop together, then maybe on Friday or Saturday night party, its like they are all clones lol, but they are raking in the dough!! They most all seem like nice guys for sure, I haven't seen any videos with Women doing this though which is strange!!

Generally Yes, most of Us are just having repeated thoughts that come from recycled data that our brain process from all the information our 5 senses have brought in since birth and even before birth while in the womb at the point where we were able to sense at all.. But someone invented or discovered electricity and how to use it, and Ramanujan claims all his math insights came from his Deva the Hindu goddess Namagiri Devi, so what does that mean? So it is possible to have original thoughts and insights, but one has to be very Conscious for this too happen which is rare nowadays!

He also says I am a figment of his imagination, I beg to differ, as I do with his opinion about Free Will.. Once Predetermination exist, Free Will has to Exist as well and visa versa, its like this with most everything, Absolute/God is a Potential/Possibility making machine, its up to You as a Human (make choices) as to how to navigate this sort of Reality where most any Possibility can come to fruition! If Free Will does not exist for You then life will turn out a certain way, karma will rule You, if You think Free Will exists and can access it, then life will go in any direction You want it too, unless an accident happens and you die which you or no one has any control over, other than what happens after You die!

OMG okay, life is too be lived as one sees fit:) That is your choice!

Egoic/Narcississtic ppl have tons of Energy, If You thought and believed You were the Actual God, would that not give You endless energy? So in that aspect it is good for You, but overall if You think You are the one and only God, what about the rest of Us? You'd probably look down on us if that was the case which is not so empowering..

Self love enhances Ego, as Love requires Two, one to do the loving and the thing being loved, unless I am misunderstanding what You mean by Self Love.. Self judgement of any kind, self respect, self hate, self esteem is egoic in nature, its You judging You, and that means two, but are You two within Yourself? If You are then a psychological problem is arising, it may become more than two within You and maybe in a year or three there will be 20 within You and so forth.. Just be Peaceful and Blissful of Your own nature, then everything will be fine, don't self judge imo!

Listen, if predetermination exist, if no control exist, so does Free Will and total control.. Too many become one sided, don't go in that direction. Do You really want to go thru life thinking You have no control? I certainly do not.. Now there is always an element of no control, I cannot control someone else driving a car and hitting my car, I can only control my car and how I drive it, so there are variable in situations like that.. But when it comes to how I respond to the situation of getting hit by another car, that is totally under my control if I want it too be, as is my interior Experience of Life, that is under my control if I want it too be and that is where Life is found! None of Us have ever experienced anything outside of ourselves, all Experience happens within You/Each of Us, so we can control how we experience life, how we respond to life and situations, accepting of life situations, and living Now or past/future, that is all under our control if I want it too be..

Tate is a total narcissist full stop, he luv's himself more than anything, and goes out to make others luv him too which enhances his ego and narcissism problem.. Loving Yourself is also a form of insanity and creates more ego problems!

They wouldn't be dead loi. They would just not be functioning well in a society, I think in severe cases of autism that sort of person is egoless, non existent hence why they cannot relate to their parents or anyone...

Most ppls thoughts are recycled data, memory coming up within this moment and stealing the moment away from them..This means what happened in the past will happen again now and in the future, so they are ruled by the past, but past does not exist, so they are ruled by something that does not exist which is insanity! Mind is past/memory and future/imagination orientated, not NOW orientated imo! How to have an original thought? This is only done via Awareness, if You highly Aware of What Is and who You are, then You can have original thoughts, as Awareness is a form Intelligence that is not memory based, its fresh, new, creative and Yours to use if You get intouch with it!

Yes I think so,, We are meant to test our boundaries all the time, to go beyond where we are right now, but if we attach to the outcome, the success, then that may lead us off course if we identify with it as "This is what I am", identity is Ego, and if You can't take of the mask of Ego then trouble arises.. Stallone talked about this, and the first 3 Rocky movies are all about this, in Rocky 1 he was just a humbled down man with no chance for anything, then an opportunity comes and he takes it, after the 1st one notice the changes in Rocky, he wants more, not satisfied with the first fight with Apollo even though he did something no one else ever did, then watch Rocky 3 this is about dealing with Success and what it does too You, he need to get his "Eye of the Tiger" back, to do that he totally transformed himself, a great example of the problems with Success and how Ego arises.. Those movies reflect what happened to Stallone in his personal life...

Well Put! Awareness is another form of Intelligence really, and its not memory based, Karma is memory based, so that is how it dissolves it and gives us back our Free Will, We are designed to be naturally Happy and Health in Mind, Body and Spirit, our chemical make up proves it, cortisol and other stress related hormones destroy our bodies and minds, healthy doses of dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and other "happy" chems that are naturally produced in our body promote growth and health for Us, so that is it right there..

Tate accomplished fame and fortune which the Ego luvs, that guy is a total Ego maniac narcissist lol its so obvious and ppl luv him because they look up to ppl like that as they see them as powerful and in control but its a disempowering persona and way to be for sure, those charges against and his bro are not there for nothing, its completely crazy how ppl are attracted to types like him, just goes to show how nuts our society has become!

Ambition is an aspect of our Desiring Process of wanting to be more than what we are right now, this life process is no about Ego, its just a natural arising that propels us forward in life and what allows us to dominate the planet and set up our lives the way we want it too be. Ego is false self, identifying with things you are not and is a social mechanism to relate and communicate/work with others in a society, we wear these masks to do just that, and we need to take the masks off when alone or when its not need, but when You think You are the mask that is where the problem arises.. Ppl like Goggins think they are this massive achievement machine and it provides them with a feeling of fulfilment and energy, but if he was bed ridden it would all go away because he's identified with his achievements which is living in the past which does not exist, so that is a form of insanity really..

There's many reasons why the majority are not in control of their emotions and other aspects of their life, most of it is education, we are not taught that we CAN control these things.. Its like illiteracy, a huge amount of ppl back in the early 1900's were illiterate, now most everyone can read and write, why? We put in institutions to teach them all, so that is what is needed, Our Education systems are intellectually based, memory based, not reality based, but it is totally possible to overcome or dissolve/bypass Karmic influence and be in control of the basics like mind thinking patterns, emotional control and things of this nature, just learning how to breath right can help one control their emotions and mind, never mind more intense work and sadhana.. The elite powers of the world don't want us to be empowered, they want us to be slaves, so that is why ppl think we have no Free Will or don't have any control over our lives and destiny!

Most don't because they don't know how, but they can if they learn how, no different from learning how to walk or ABC 123..

Bruce Lee can be compared to Goggins, when Bruce was on the floor playing with his baby, he was doing leg raises at the same time, on a plane rides and in his car he had stress balls that he would squeeze, on a daily basis back in his heavy training days he did 5,000 kicks on the bag and in the air a day on both sides, the man was obsessed. He was also a coke head, they recently found letters confirming his addiction and he was short tempered and had a chip on his shoulder due to being rejected in Hollywood, but he was a great inspiration and still Is, but his huge Egoic drive probably killed him!

This coldfusion guy has some good docu's, in this one he basically reports that Microsoft is more concerned with Stockholders than customers, revealed by how bad win11 is!! Thank God I haven't switched over!!

See Ronnie Coleman, 8 time Mr Olympia, for a Bodybuilder he was exceptionally strong, he can hardly move now, severe back and neck problems, almost paralyzed.. Another Body Builder who's gone more spiritual path, Dorian Yates, he's a 7 time winner I think, he said after he retired that it was all Ego what he was doing, constantly looking in the mirror and comparing himself all the time,, Any high achiever has to have a strong Ego complex, if they can handle it and turn it off when needed then its no problem, but if they can't then its a problem!

Yes, if I go to the States and my stay is more than 30 days I have to fil out a form and get fingerprinted and stuff... I think this is in place for Us because ppl are coming to Canada to go to the States and it may be easier to get residency here, although I am not so sure that is true.. The states is losing out big time the tourist dollars as many Canadians that use to travel down to Florida and other places are staying home now, and they are missing out on Billions of dollars being spent.. Bad move overall on Trumps part!!

Your Karma leads You in many ways, it attracts to You what Your Karma is making You out to be.. Vasanas (Vāsanā (Sanskrit; Devanagari: वासना) is a behavioral tendency or karmic imprint which influences the present behavior of a person) is like the scent You give off, Your giving off a scent that is attracting certain things in Your Life. If Your Unconscious of this process it seems like another force is directing You, but in reality it is You and Only You directing Your Life, its just a matter of how Conscious You are of this processes.. As You know there are 4 areas of Action going within You all the time since birth, Body, Mind, Emotion and Energy Action, how Conscious are You of any of these actions? Most are not conscious of them at all, maybe a bit of the Body and Mind action.. So this is why ppl think stuff is happening "To Them", rather than Them doing it too themselves.. They are Unconscious of most of what is happening within themselves, never mind what is happening outside of themselves!1

The counter argument- Its not Ego that makes up stories or scenarios on why to keep going.. Within all of Us is a very strong survival instinct, we need it since we are relatively weak physically compared to lots of animals, no fur either, thin skinned, weak bones, small muscles, limited endurance. With this strong survival instinct we also have the most advanced Intellect on the planet and ability to have Identity, the intellect will wrap around this identity and lead us in the direction of our identity, which can be also called Ego.. So Humans are meant to strive forward, and always Want to be More than what they Are right now, if this is not within a person experientially then they more than likely want to commit suicide which is at epidemic levels today, the way we have structured society is making our young ppl want to kill themselves, which is super sad.. The problem is ppl think they are this Ego or Identity as well ppl identify with too many different things, they identify with their Gender, Sex orientation, Nationality, Ethnicity, Religion, Political POV, Sporting Teams, Family Association, on and on, this distorts their perception in regards to "What am I and Why am I Here", so ppl are basically living on auto pilot doing what they can too just Survive, but that is a base level of existence for a Human Being.. At the base level of Identity we as Human Beings should identify as vessels of Potential and Possibility, at the top level we are God/Absolute itself!!

Good question! I think it depends on One's intentions which we will never really know.. Goggins for example I would say has a big ego, his achievements of going thru suffering triumphantly sounds and looks like a big ego too me, Ralston seems a bit egoic but not like Googins, but with Spiritual teachers they may just have a calling to share the Bliss or Experience they feel since it is so empowering overall, Googins stuff not so much imo.. Ego is needed to do anything in this world, we need personalities/identities for ourselves to help other personalities or to use them, if Your doing something that is empowering for others and that is the primary reason Your doing it, then Your ego is in check, if your doing it to make Yourself feel good then your ego is big...

this is true, ppl like him create their personality/ego consciously as a deliberate act, whereas most of us do it unconsciously, so ppl allow their ego's to take over and think it is what they are which is not truth..

I don't know if this is true, I'm pretty introverted now, maybe its due to age and experience (I don't like being in crowds and large groups nowadays, ppl are too crazy and dumb lol) so maybe my introversion is just that, but I spent allot of time alone in younger years and used it too learn and research/investigate, I think the youth of today are very different from past generations, but that is just an personal observation, I was outside most of the time when I was young, too much energy to burn to stay indoors and do nothing but when I had no choice I was still active in other ways,,Today the youth are addicted to tech/phones/social media and other such vices which is no good for them, they have no social skills either from what I understand generally speaking..
