  1. Excellent question and very well put. Isn't the problem that guys like that have giant egos? You don't do arena tours just to help people (which in itself is an egoic reason) It's about the rush of being on stage, of being significant, making the business work. I've seen many NLP guys cross over into all sorts of shady stuff such as Multi Level Marketing.
  2. I'm looking at volunteering at retreats in exotic places, mainly Thailand and some others, to get a place to stay in exchange for labor. I much prefer to offer my tech skills than some general work like gardering or cooking. It ties in with my life purpose as well so it's perfect. But some of these are paid opportunities. Like today I saw one that asks a $45 a day contribution and you still expected to work 30 hours a week for free. Even the Ram Das ashram in Portugal here charge you $450 contribution in order to volunteer for 40 days. Do you believe this to be ethical? It feels like my time is not only being valued low but negative? Yes you are paying for this 'good cause' but cmon 😐
  3. Not sure if this video has been posted already but it's worth the watch Boils down to: both OpenAi and Anthropic are deeply indoctrinated by this weird doomer religion. So everytime you hear doomsday talk about AI, now you know where it comes from.
  4. We've already offloaded our brains into the computer a lot. If I were to upload all my LLM chat history to this forum you guys would know more about me than I know about myself. Social media posts and other thoughts you've shared continue to exist on servers after your dead too. Thoughts you shared in these forum posts included.
  5. If you just work on your purpose day in and day out, it doesn't really matter how you feel cause you got bigger fish to fry.
  6. I'm just listening to old tapes of RSD Owen Cook talking about success and working 16-hour days. But then I also see today's Owen saying it's all bullshit. Is that how it is? When you're young you think working hard matters but as you're older you realize it was just a lie? Can you build a successful business or career without hard work? I mean, define hard work right? Right now I work maybe 35 hours, 7 days a week in my own business. That's actual focused work. I'm quite happy with it. But then are these hustle and grind guys just fucking deranged, or is there something to it?
  7. What's the point of dating? The whole operation is not genuine because it is ultimately driven by people's reproductive desires. You're not genuinely broadening your horizons when there's a dating partner involved because the underlying urges drive a lot of it. Else you can just get a dog and move on. And since the whole venture is corrupted, it's a distraction. You will almost certainly get sucked into this unconscious behavior together. The whole escaping comformity Leo talks about? Get ready for more of it, much more conformity when dating. Much more lower consciousness. That's another thing: you're entering into a giant pool of normie, low consciousness gunk. It's very unlikely your dating partners value truth, insight or thinking for themselves. People don't care about those things. Idk maybe I'm cynical. Can we all agree dating is not expanding your consciousness because of it's thick survival bias? It begs the question: why date at all? To me it's a headache, more admin. I don't want kids, so what's the point?
  8. I think I'm just being impossible with this. I just fantasize about stuff, like a hopeless romantic. I really enjoy my current life which is full of little interactions, that's mostly my social life now and I'm happy with it. Perhaps a girl to explore together with since I'm here in Thailand. But at the end my fantasies are just that. People have flaws and relationships arent perfect. For now I'm choosing to just think about these things instead 😝 What about you?
  9. Yah I vibe coded an entire profitable freelance business on this premise this year. What matters is you getting the clients. What concrete thing can you offer? More leads? Less time wasted? That's all that matters. Then figure out Claude code as you go, as it can pretty much do anything. And where will you find your audience? Who are they? Niche down, don't be general. So target "freelance accountants with a broken website who hate admin" not "business owners". And then reach out to them. My bot now emails 180 leads per day automatically. I only talk to people once they qualify. Took time to build my lead machine,now it makes money. Constantly improve your business, always improve and get better. Be obsessed. That's my advice.
  10. Hmm I don't actually think so. Most people would just work a lot and be broke. Millionaire comes from creative thought, from mind, and those ideas come at rest or during creative peaks. Ai or staff can do the long work hours.
  11. They say Leo can turn vodka into wine 🤫
  12. Eating food and dating aren't the same. With food it's very low effort to just eat and move on. With dating comes a whole social entanglement and now you're playing that game. Nothing wrong with it, but it's unavoidable. You can't have two conscious beings just interfacing, that is not a romantic relationship. A relationship is exclusive. You have a relationship with person A means NOT with person B. This always comes with social games. It's separation, exclusion, survival. Breath can be used for spiritual development. Dating, I don't see it. But I notice I'm closed off to it at this moment. I'm just cynical about other people's developmental levels, which probably isn't a great quality but hey. I should be aware that this could turn into a self fulfilling prophecy. Fyi I've had one long term relationship, that was fine, not open to it now and casual dating is also kinda lame.
  13. All these experts who said we're going into the greatest oil crisis since the seventies were wrong.
  14. Lots of spiritual peoples support 11:11 not 9/11 lol
  15. You shouldn't take those things seriously. OpenAI is a commercial operation run by a scam artist, not some sort of scientific institution lol.
  16. In all my years on the forum I've never heard anyone say they've been on a cruise. Is it just for old people? Or is this just below the spiral dynamic elites of this world? I personally would hate it. I already hate flying cause you're just stuck in a cage up there. Being stuck in a little room for days with a bunch of old people and families sounds like a nightmare. But maybe we should do an Actualized psychedelics cruise 😁
  17. Great name for a cruise-liner 😎
  18. @LordFall bro I watched both videos and I'm so disappointed. I thought people were gonna be fucking on there.
  19. Am in Bangkok now. Today I went to the market and there were lots of animals there in little cages. A bit similar to this video They had regular animals like cats, bunnies and mice. But also crazy ones. I've seen at least: Wild cats (Lynx? not sure) Sugar glider Many different reptiles Giant turtles Opossum Raccoon (seriously, who wants this as a pet?) Capuchin Monkey (sad) Many puppies (more sad tbh) Capybara Many exotic birds Squirrels Probably way more. I could have swore I heard a tiger growl at some point but that was probably just my brain playing tricks on me. Although if you ask enough people I'm sure they can get you one. Most of these animals didn't look like they should be caged but what you gonna do. Also saw cockfighting roosters yesterday lol.
  20. Surely this must have been posted here before but; Girls with white socks and dad slippers. Fucking seriously.
  21. They had fennec fox 🦊
