I entertain my fears I create more fears I feel less natural I entertain this burning feeling in my chest and abdomen I get stuck in fears I don't make any progress in life I lose my self-control I live life dis-functionally If I were more accepting of my pain... I'll understand where my pain is coming from I'll accept to cry in order to release my pain I'll recognize that I'm not the only one in pain I'll accept to experience my pain to its fullest I'll try to understand that the ones responsible for my pain were feeling painful too I'll be able to progressively let go of my pain If I deny and disown my pain...

  3. @Keyhole Thank you. Yes, I'm in my early 20s, I'm not expecting people to be perfect anyway and no matter their age.
  4. We we all die before societies move mostly into green, so for the moment we don't have any choice than dealing with low consciousness.
  5. I think the general level of consciousness of an environment also matters. These environments were not highly conscious and mostly stage blue. What I noticed is that when red corrupts blue, even if blue hates red, it will start to follow it because blue is too afraid of red. I saw this with guys too when they are too afraid of red. So, yes, there's definitely different factors.
  6. These girls were normal stage blue girls. And yeah, I also think they laughed because it showed a "strong man" being masculine and just wanted to follow the masculine energy.
  7. @Bando @Willie This thread is more about understanding some female reactions than me. Yeah, I think it was more a joke to them in a sense, but in another sense I think it was also voluntarily. I noticed that within guys when someone feels bad in life, at least 1 out of 10 guys (who will be a little more narcissistic) will start to pick on him and bully him, than the others will follow to not be seen as the weak bullied one. In one of the office, I consider that it was voluntarily because I got continually bullied there and the boss would be the bully in chief who would traumatize all employees.
  8. Downright mean, but it also looks like it was funny for them. From one perspective it seemed like they didn't really understood how I felt, but at the same time these kind of stuff always happened to me when I felt bad in life. Similar things happened when I was a kid at school in moments where I suffered from a lot of depression. It looks like people don't like when someone feels bad and want to kill him with words.

  12. Limitations of Stage Orange Self-Help Very good videos.
  13. Because everything is imagination, and as imagination is infinite we can develop to infinity and beyond human possibilities. However, self-development until infinity is like being a hamster in a wheel: we never get satisfied and it becomes frustrating and irritating at a point. This is the reason why life is at the same time infinite and finite, and is at the same time everything and nothing, it is a needed feature to create a balance. Being too much stuck in self-development until infinity gets toxic at the moment, but being too stuck in a motionless life also gets toxic at a moment. The key is to balance what we are doing accordingly to the phase of life that we are in, like 80% in motion and 20% not in motion, or 70% in motion and 30% not in motion, or 30% in motion and 70% not in motion. Examples: Going to the gym 3 days a week: most of the time not in motion, but a few times per week in motion Working 30 hours/week: most of the time not in motion, but many times in motion Reading for 1 hour/day: most of the time not in motion, but many times in motion Cooking for 1h30/day: most of the time not in motion, but many times in motion etc... The accumulation of all these activities creates a moving life where we are most of the time in motion, but sometimes it becomes too much and we need to become motionless and have a break.
  14. How can we self-develop if there is no self?
  15. Sunday is my bullshit day: no work, no personal development. Only a little of distraction and relaxation. And it feels great.
  16. I have two mentally ill people in my house: my dad and grandma. My mom is the only person with who I can have a normal conversation. Of course, she doesn't know about self-help nor self-actualization, but still, I consider her great and it feels great to have some normal, average, genuine conversations. I love you mom.

This is what happened yesterday. I wanted to go to bed, but got some cravings for porn. I went watch some porn and as I expected it made me incredibly agitated and bring the fear out. I was unable to sleep because I was feeling so much fear, so I watch dumb things on Youtube until 1:00 AM. The result was a sleepless night and an unproductive day.
