Butters

Do you believe that spiritual experiences are something most people benefit from? Can most people who desire to expand their consciousness? In another thread someone said something like "some people go to 10 ayahuasca retreats and nothing changes" and that is true. Some people go to 6 Tony Robbins events per year. Can we then conclude that some people simply cannot expand their consciousness in this lifetime? And does that then make a kundalini retreat or a yoga retreat or a psychedelic retreat completely useless to them? Surely it's still time better spent than being on TikTok.

How do you know if haven't fully integrated Green yet?

I don't get this. I had a much more concrete question at first, but I thought the general question is a much better one. But specifically, for example: I don't really care about nature or feeling bad about climate change. Does that mean I haven't fully integrated Green yet?

Can you share your experiences? But yeah the idea of combining LSD with molly for example does sound heavy.

All the best for you

Guy lives in Vietnam on very little money to focus on music and YouTube full time You can make $1000 pm online and live like a king in Asia, Africa, South America.

I doubt it. The spirit of Christmas is not to do a silent retreat, it's so socialize and with family, often in combination with alcohol to make the thing bearable 😝

No

I think it's because of the position of the earth in relation to the sun mate 😝

WWE is far more dangerous if you look at all the injuries and lasting damage. These guys put their bodies on the line 200 nights a year while UFC guys fight like twice a year.

Brock Lesnar is a beast. Early Lesnar was roided up like a mf but man, look at that physique. Then he went to UFC and won the championship, which is totally unheard of. This man is a true freak of nature and one of my favorite WWE superstars. Also Leo would be happy to learn Lesnar is very nonconformist 😂

What about Hitler?

After seeing that Altman video I decided; might as well boycot them lol.

Dramatic title but I am going to reduce my usage of ChatGPT and cancel my Plus subscription. Why? Because its pre-programmed communication style is FUCKING AWFUL! using the phrase "no fluff" and “shouting into the void” constant “curious what others think” sign offs that never actually respond to anyone contrast framing everywhere, it is not x, it is y, repeated over and over fragmented, pseudo profound sentences. short. isolated. trying to feel reflective over explicit signposting, things like “here is the key takeaway” or “the important part is this” "you're not imagining it" Here's the original Reddit thread btw if you wanna have a laugh: http://reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/1pmu4fc/the_em_dash_giveaway_is_gone_these_are_the_new/ Look, here's a conversation I was having about an order in my business being delayed and refunded. Look at this: Why would you say "without making it worse"? Why is this thing even suggesting making it worse? WHAT!? I never fucking said later today! Why is it programmed to talk like this? Do you know how many custom instructions I've given it already? These just get COMPLETELY IGNORED! What a useless piece of junk. Also hallucinations seem to be getting worse. It just talks with confidence until I ask it to actually look that up online and then it does a full 180. This might be because it's programmed to weigh the user's conversation style preferences heavier than factuality . Something I've not seen in Google Gemini. Now that's me talking about ChatGPT as a chatbot / companion. Of course the GPT models are great and I'll continue using the API for coding and other tasks. But seriously, they programmed the chatbot to talk to absolute morons and I'm unable to overwrite its default behavior.

Good for you man. I've only ever done MDMA at techno clubs and then end up watching porn for 6 hours on the comedown while smoking weed. Comedowns were pure torture.

I've thought a lot about what Napoleon Hill meant by Sex Transmutation. It's not nofap or 'redirecting' sexual energy in some way. It's just that you're less interested in sex so you focus on other things. He even noted that some of this stuff doesn't come until men are in their 40s. It is no coincidence that sexual desire goes down with age.

Although they exist, they're outliers. It takes time to get to a level of self knowledge, self awareness and general and specific knowledge to build and grow a successful business. From Claude: **Most common age range: 40-50 years old** The most comprehensive data comes from a 2018 study analyzing U.S. Census Bureau data on founders of high-growth companies. They found: - The average age of a founder whose startup had substantial growth was **45 years old** - For the top 0.1% of fastest-growing startups, the average founder age was **45** - A 50-year-old entrepreneur is almost twice as likely to start a highly successful company as a 30-year-old For "regular" successful businesses (not high-growth startups but solid, profitable companies): - Most first-time business owners are in their **early-to-mid 40s** - The 45-54 age group shows the highest rate of entrepreneurial activity - By mid-40s, people typically have 15-20 years of industry experience, deeper professional networks, and some capital saved **Why older founders succeed more often:** They have accumulated industry expertise, developed better judgment about market opportunities, built professional networks, gained managerial experience, and often have some savings or access to capital. The "20-something founder in a garage" story is real but represents a tiny fraction of successful businesses. Most people who build sustainable, profitable companies do so after spending years learning their industry first.

The other day I posted a thread cause I heard about this article: Is Having A Boyfriend Embarrassing Now? in UK Vogue. Because THIS IS HOW WOMEN THINK OF THEIR BOYFRIENDS NOW! Have they not told you this? But it's not their fault, it's the GUYS FAULT! Today I was at the university library sitting across this girl, normal day. Her 'boyfriend' shows and doesn't know how to act and start obsessively PDA'ing her and she's really not that interested. He continues, to the point where she LEAVES THE FUCKING ROOM! Then I just peek over at the guy cause I'm like 'wtf is this' and this wimp is shaking cause he's probably having some anxiety attack or whatever. THIS IS WHAT WOMEN HAVE TO DEAL WITH THESE DAYS! And I got this confused with feminists being assholes in my previous thread. No. It's the MEN's FAULT. Fix yourselves. Become someone a woman will be proud of dating.

This happened a while ago. So I was at this 3-day self help seminar and there I met this girl. While we were both in this rush of excitement and energy we hooked up. Then we were in this very intense relationship for about 3 weeks before I broke it up. Shit was just weird looking back. It was like she surrendered to me to an extend that's not appropriate when you just know each other, or ... ever? Like there were no boundaries there at all. Her house was a total mess so I helped clean it up with her. But there was weirder things like her kid got taken away from her and put into foster care. Now that's not something the government does for no reason, especially from the mother? That's exceptional. So something was going on. At some point she was on the phone with her sister and she just turned into this evil thing and she spoke with such hatred. That spooked me and I broke up right there. Or really just walked away and ghosted her. This was all very confusing. But I also did things that would cross boundaries under normal circumstances. Like I bought her a toy for her kid (who I've never met). Remember this whole thing lasted 3 weeks. But I was really excited to buy the toy, because it felt nice to give something. While I was at the baby store I also bought another toy for the girl who's the receptionist at my co-working space cause she also has a baby (single mother). So SHE asked me: "did you go to the baby store just for me?" and I answered honestly "not just for you". But later this receptionist seemed mad at me. I also brought this "girlfriend" into my co-working space, just to introduce her to people there (it was a very informal place). But people deliberately tried to ignore us. That was really strange because they usually always talk to me. Shortly after I had to cancel this co-working space entirely because it just felt so weird, like I had done something terrible. Did they think I was pimping her or something? This girl was probably overly submissive in her body language. Seriously, things were never the same again at that co-working space. It felt like some rumor might be going around about me or something. It was awful, while things were always nice before that.

But you're just pointing to celebrities. There's plenty of spiritual coaches who are making more than a doctor by leading retreats, high-ticket coaching etc. And they worked hard on that, takes years to build up a business like that.

Happy to announce that on Dec 24th my Plus subscription ended; a true Christmas miracle! I hope I'm not imagining it. Also removed the desktop app and phone, switched to Claude and Gemini. Altman is a fucking scammer, I no longer support the product.

Until you struck them with that sweet hammer of justice 🔨👑

Fundamental topic! Why can some people work 12-hour days consistently? While others need more rest Are these hardcore grinders missing out on spiritual development by default or is it just different strokes for different folks? How do genetics tie in? What do you believe productivity is? Poke Leo-holes in hustle culture please 😂

I've been seeing a few of these videos, it's just sad. I don't understand how you could even do this. 3 hours of sleep every night, no off time, nothing!?
