This question has really been nagging me lately. Which is the best way to go? Should I build a life purpose first and live it while learning about enlightenment and then "pursue" it? Or should I go straight for enlightenment first and then my purpose will become clearer through that? They both have their perks. Life purpose first would probably be a more enjoyable journey i would guess. But if I went straight for enlightenment while I guess still learning and such about personal development I could get there younger and know where to go from there. I also remember Leo said in a video that going straight for enlightenment would be the best way to go strategically. What are your guys thoughts? Which life would be more joyous and more enjoyable? What life would be more powerful and fulfilling? For the best life I could live which direction should I go first? What JOURNEY would be more enjoyable? What journey and path would be more fullfilling and more meaningful and more rewarding? Which path should I take because it will make a difference I feel.

@Ryan_047 I guess you'll eventually just have to do it if you want to get over it no matter how hard it is. You'll just have to get moving even if it is just a little bit at first. Even if your not motivated you'll still have to do it. You can do it. Anything is possible. Don't play the victim. Take responsibility for your life and go get it. Also maybe some therapy would help?

@Ryan_047 Leo has a video called "how to stop backsliding" which I assume is about this. Also the book Mastery by George Leonard talks about this topic of how to not backslide, falling off track briefly. The path of Mastery would help a lot too I feel. Also I would recommend motivating yourself with a vision that you can create for yourself. Leo has a good video called "true vision" and another called a "a vision for the self actualized life." Also motivational videos. I fall off on installing habits all the time haha. It's hard and can take time. And also love and accept yourself. I sometimes have trouble with this too. We aren't perfect. Muster up the strength you need and go do it! Also getting energy would help. A life purpose would give you lots of energy so that would be a good place to start. And a gym routine and healthy diet would give you more energy.

Hey Leo. I watched your true vision video and it really inspired me. It was very emotional and touching. The video was posted about two and a half years ago. I think it would be cool and inspiring if you did an updated version of this video. How much farther have you taken the vision since then? How much more did it develop? Or is it similar? How emotional are you now about your vision? After two and half years did progress change this and empower it? Change you? Did you accomplish anything you set out for yourself and how did it effect you? What does your life feel like now? How close are you to this vision? How did consciousness work effect all of this? Really it would be cool if you did another one of these videos to really amp people up to go out there and get it. What can we really achieve? What is capable? How far can you take your vision? An emotional video would be amazing conveying lots of passion and love and purpose. A really touching kind of thing. Something that will light a fire inside people and make them have to do what they got to do. Something so inspiring it can change a life. Tap into that higher self and even cry if you need to to convey this message. Haha make people cry and get them what they need, this vision, to continue this path of self-actualization and to live the amazing life that they want to live. To get them to really consider this idea of living up to their full potential and to achieve and pursue everything they want in life until they reach it. To get people really sold on an idea of life purpose or enlightenment or whatever it is you want to convey.

Also like what you can accomplish with personal development on a deeper level then your video "A vision for the self actualized life style". And how far you can take all this stuff etc.

@Leo Gura How about life purpose? Your life calling. How much will enlightenment alter your life purpose? How can you gauge how authentic your life purpose is now? And wouldn't it be better to just get enlightened first? Then find/follow your life purpose? Your passion?

@Leo Gura Thank you! I'm excited to see where both of these together can take me by the end

Hey everyone. I've been thinking a lot lately about if I should go to college or not being a senior in high school right now. If I don't go, well... I'm going to be kicked out of my house onto my own and move to some city to work until I find my life purpose! There is pros and cons to both options and any advice would help! In college I'd get: Basic education to learn to be more well rounded even though I'm not passionate about it. Even without passion it still seems like a good idea to learn this kind of stuff. I'd have lots of social situations so I can get better socially and with girls maybe making some good connections with passionate people on the way or getting a girlfriend. These are good but I wouldn't have a lot of time most likely to study personal development material which is my main focus and something I've become passionate about. Also finding my life purpose along with all this stuff would be hard time wise. College would also be really fun experience I think. On my own in the city I'd: Have more time to study and learn I THINK depending on my job salary and work time. Working two jobs wouldn't help. I'd be able to focus on life purpose stuff more too if had more time. I wouldn't have as many social situations though. In a social aspect of growth and enjoyment with people college would be better. Personal growth, life purpose, and enlightenment are my main focuses right now. Growing myself doing personal development work is a big focus. I'm changing habits and learning a lot making my life more enjoyable. Emotional mastery has been a big focus too and I've been reading some. I want to start learning about it all and really transform my life into something amazing in all aspects of life. I'm also trying to find my life purpose. I bought his course and have done some of it but it is hard to balance with school and work. I also want to start learning more about enlightenment. I've been meditating everyday for 4 months now. I guess I'm just trying to find the better option. Going out on my own pursuing personal development and enlightenment and finding my life purpose (something to do with personal development or enlightenment I think) seems smart but school seems like a better option at times to. What do you guys think? Will I have more time to learn and grow in college or in the real world? Which one will help me more in my growth, education, and life. Which will give me better experience? Which would give me a more enjoyable experience? The real world with the stress of money seems painful. What is everyone's thoughts on college? Thanks for help!

How can I become more modest instead of being arrogant? Ever since I started to delve deeper into personal development I notice I put myself above others because I know more about the mind. I also tend to think that I know what people should be doing in their life's over the people themselves (some truth to that though). How can I take myself less seriously? Any good advice? Thanks

Haha thank you @Aamir King @Jared Gregory

@aurum Thank you very much for your input. It helps a lot
