Deep Work Duration: 1 hour 34 minutes @Raphael It seems like you had a little backslash during the last two days, it's fine, it happens. Hopefully, you take a lot of time off during the rest this day and it calmed you down. You will have an awesome day tomorrow.

I was quite distracted during this session as I was sometime browsing through the actualized.org forum. Deep Work Duration: 49 minutes 03:30 PM - 04:46 PM: I corrected some bugs and I think I have an idea to fix the multiple captcha bugs. Deep Work Duration: 1 hour 16 minutes I was a little down today and felt some sadness, I procrastinated a lot and wasn't able to work properly. It's probably because I was quite exhausted lately, didn't slept well last two days, and was super stressed out.

  6. Both. Yeah, that's what I would define as an healthy masculine role model.
  7. @Preety_India Leo shame people too much in my opinion. Some of his videos that were supposed to help make me more depressed and shameful in the past. This is reflected in this forum because people who follow him will start to act like him which sometimes creates a difficult atmosphere in this place. I agree for Forestluv, he looks super balanced when I read his posts, definitely a role model. I didn't know about Rupert Spira, Adyashanti and Ram Dass, I will check out.
  8. I have cases of toxic masculinity in my family, notably: My dad, I saw him abusing my mom mostly verbally all my life An uncle that used to get drunk after work, go back home, beat his wife with a stick, and then rape her
  9. It's probably not the most toxic example, but I was quite blown away by how dumb some of these guys were playing at times. It's like sometimes they don't want to do any efforts and just say the stupidest thing.
  10. These are parts of its limitations just like other stages. It's probably difficult to accept it for people at stage green because we are directly confronted with these issues in our era, but it's easier to understand the horrors of the past like dictators and slavery because we are out of touch with that. They are not doing what they are doing because they consciously want it, but because they are unconscious. Just as a stage red dictator is unconscious of the suffering that it is doing to others. Billionaires that don't contribute back enough are run by unhealthy emotions and motives but are unconscious of it. It's like an addiction for them, if you ever had a strong addiction you can understand how they feel. They want to feel good and they think that they can feel good by accumulating wealth so they endlessly chase money and success, it's like being addicted to gambling or alcohol, it's super difficult for them to stop, they just cannot help themselves. Many of them are only rich financially, but poor emotionally, they are ignorant and don't know what life is really about. You just need to let go and accept it, just as you can accept the existence of past tyrants and of slavery.
  11. I consider myself as being mostly at stage orange/green. I want to become a millionaire because I'm poor. It will allow me to quit the place where I live, travel, meet interesting people, in summary, to have more opportunities and freedom to self-actualize. Of course, if the richest people in the world where redistributing more money, it would greatly help me to get started, but it is not the case because they are not conscious enough, so I have to do it by myself. Being a millionaire will also help me for enlightenment because I need a proper financial foundation to support myself. However, after enlightenment, I don't know what I will do. If I have a lot of money available, I can create systems to help others to self-actualize. Endless chasing just for success looks futile and dissatisfying, accumulating wealth is more satisfying if it is used to build infrastructures to help mankind to evolve. Concerning the exploitation, it existed since the dawn of time. Stage orange is actually the first one to stop classic slavery. Of course, working 60h per week is also a form of slavery but it's better than the exploitation that happened at previous stages where people were working until their death without receiving anything in return. Stage orange is actually less exploitative than the previous stages, but its environmental impact is much more concerning. Stage orange can also have incredible work ethics. At the beginning of Amazon, Jeff Bezos had working days that would end up at midnight or 1 - 2 AM. I currently work with someone who wakes up at 6 and continues to work until 11 PM - 12 PM because he is so concerned about satisfying its clients. All the technologies and luxuries that we have today and that we are currently using to communicate even if we live on different continents exist thank to stage orange. Stage orange is a necessity and is on what green is built on and will continue to be built on in the future.

I usually like to show compassion and want to be kind and help people, but most people don't care, when they see a genuine being they just want to take advantage. I'm bored of being exploited by people, I will force more and more my will onto them and put clear boundaries in the future. Shit will go my way now. @Raphael Good, you rest properly today.

  19. Strong Determination Sitting This meditation technique is super powerful. I meditated for one hour every day for several months, I was using the do-nothing technique, it was quite challenging but I got used to it. So I wanted to change a little and started to experience with the Strong Determination Sitting technique and it was like hell, I couldn't even do it for 30 minutes most of the time. The maximum that I did was 35 minutes. I think I will continue with this technique and push it to one hour, it's very powerful and I see a lot of potentials. Here's a quick video about it: https://youtu.be/EHI1aPUxs4s
  20. Study computer science on your own a little before going to work and a little after work Create a few small projects When you consider that you have the minimum experience, search for a job in the field as a junior software developer Explain your situation to your future employers and show your projects, personal projects are more important than any degree in the software industry. The people will maybe understand you, have some compassion, and accept you in their company

  22. Have high standards, your minimum standards should be high so that when you focus on an objective the minimum result that you get is already a high-quality result.
