His password was probably cached for autologin. I checked the Las Vegas obits and nothing was there. A couple days ago, some Mexican hippy took a tumble off the top of a hotel. Hopefully he wasn't a member of Actualized. I wish he'd hurry up with the upload. I'm having to watch RDSTyler seminar as a substitute & it's like NOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooah!!!!

Maybe it was Pennywise?

HAHAHA. You guys are fucking weird! You do realize that videos are uploaded through an automation process right? For all we know, he may have filmed several in advance and the auto-loader had an error. After seeing how Rich Piana died at age 46, I would be weary about drug use though.

I've been a bit skeptical of the relative safety of mushrooms and sure enough, a Russian American (Irony?) took some mushrooms and killed his girlfriend. Let's bring a loaded gun out on our mushroom journey. Article: https://idledillettante.com/2017/05/18/tj-kirk-humiliates-deceased-disturbs-bereaved-with-memorial-fundraiser-benefitting-no-one-involved/ I learned about it on Thunderf00t: People on the webs keep talking about how safe it is. Perhaps in a straight jacket and rubber room I suppose. Even if he wasn't aware of what he did, he's going to sweet talking with Bubba over in jail. Career (if he had one) in shambles. Life ruined.

You ask too many questions!
-
But if something goes wrong with your car while driving, your chances of surviving are better. If the engines go out on a plane, you're nearly 100% screwed. Unless you have Sully flying your plane. Probably a rubber room & a straight jacket might be the best way to go about one's first mushroom experience?

HAHAHA! I probably should've finished the Thunderf00t video before posting. I do realize I posted it too hastily. However, I did want to point out the absolute craziness that someone brought a loaded gun on a mushroom trip. If he was by himself, he probably would've shot himself in the head. Also, I still think that mushrooms are only used by a minority of people and that is why we aren't seeing more of this type of violence. A larger sample pool should tell us what we need to know about its safety. They're saying now, for example, that Chris Cornell killed himself due to taking too many of his anti-anxiety pills. Perhaps any substance that affects the mind may cause an uncontrollable, violent act towards yourself or someone else. Did anyone watch the documentary on James Arthur Ray who ended up killing a few people by trying an extreme exercise with a sweat lodge? Extremes seem to be a dual-edged sword. You might be rewarded or perhaps find yourself dead or sharing a prison cell with Bubba. hahaha. I'm not judging guys! Don't shoot the messenger! I just wanted to report about a guy on mushrooms, the lighter psychedelic, just recently killed his gf. He was an SJW, pro-feminist, and shot a feminist. Perhaps he never would have done that if he didn't do the mushrooms?

The sawing goes that a working Fusion reactor is always 20 years away from becoming reality. I still haven't understood why this is such a slow process. However, after not looking at Fusion reactor development for at least the past 10 years, I took a look today & found that something was recently announced as late as yesterday: A new type of Tokamak reactor called a Stellerator built in Germany that works: http://www.popularmechanics.com/science/energy/a24172/fusion-reactor-working/ However, at the end of it, even though it works, states it uses more energy that it produces. Irony. Also, it seems to violate Occam's Razor. Nothing elegant about this solution. So it appears the Fusion Reactor is still 20 years away. Eventually, whenever they come online, it'll feel as if they've always been here. It would be interesting to see this monument of human invention come to pass in our lifetime.

I don't think even enlightened people would be content with working at 7/11. Rali over at Naked Reality states he is enlightened and his purpose of producing Naked Reality is for the purpose of making a lot of money. However, without a collected body of knowledge, other than some details about getting enlightened, what else would you teach? The enlightened guy working at 7/11 doesn't contribute to humanity. It's a life of self-imposed poverty with long-term health and money issues. Overall, I think it doesn't matter if you are enlightened or not, there will be necessary reasons to live a life with higher quality. Also, it seems you think that being enlightened is an endpoint, whereas I think that's just the beginning. I'm not even sure such an enlightened person exists: one that works at 7/11, unless that is a job in retirement after a life lived doing something else.

If he hasn't actually called you out then you're definitely projecting. I just had Adam from PsychedSubstance call me out, specifically my alias in his video with my question that he answered. lol. Rather than rejecting Project Sage outright, why not let it happen & see where it leads? I haven't seen Leo trying to build a cult, unless you already consider Actualized.org a cult. Osho had a dark side according to the wikipedia & there were some fanatics around him that seemed to think killing people, to preserve the ideology, was ok to do. That's probably more inline with some government policies. I see it more as an Osho "equalization"...rather than having one figurehead, we have many that become one. That could transform the world. If it's just one, like Osho had, well once he died, it didn't lead anywhere. Still, we have his books.

Man, has anyone seen or heard about this yet? This has to be one of the bizarrest things I've ever heard of. Someone recently posted about it on a YouTube video I was watching & I was like wtf ?? So I googled it. She was asking for help against these people. Excerpt below. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/11/health/gang-stalking-targeted-individuals.html?_r=0

I did both confidence and humor affirmations for about two months and had already started noticing an improvement. Jokes seemed to be popping into my head in social situations without much effort. Confidence improvement has been difficult to determine so far. If something feels very high stress or is going to be a real pain then my confidence is shaken on whether I'll be able to do it effectively or that it'll blow up in my face.

I recently saw his on FB and thought it was new so I listened to a lecture from Ken where he's basically selling this large program called Superhuman OS. As I already have a lot of self-help material, including 2 of Wilber's books that I haven't read yet, I wasn't really sure what to make of it. I did some Google search about the program and found that it had been released a couple of years ago & some people were calling it a money grab. I'm not even sure the website selling the package is legitimate as there were a couple of other URLs that were like superhumanos.net and superhumanos.org and some others. Has anyone tried it? Is it useful at all? Right now I feel it looks like a lot of redundant material that might actually be good if you were just getting started & hadn't bought a bunch of books & a few programs already. Maybe reading Ken's two books that I have might help answer that question. I just don't want burn $700 & say "Oh. I've covered this already!!" Here's the URL to the program: https://superhumanos.net/sale/

Thanks Leo. I'll take that into consideration. I already have a gigantic book list & a pile of books to read as it is. I'll have to figure out whether I have the time to invest in it or not.

So how come therapy didn't work? I watched the video you provided. It seems he's trying to say you can decrease your chances of this happening if you have and use guided meditation. I'm sorry you're in this state. I didn't know there was such a thing. Did you try consulting a meditation guide to reverse it? Seems to point that as a solution in the video.

Read the book or watch the movie called Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer. It's a biography about a smart kid who after college just went off the grid & lived in the woods. I haven' t finished the book yet, but when he needed a bit of cash to get something, he'd just go into some local town & try to get a job at a restaurant or whatever. When he clocked out of his job, he'd head back out into the woods, I suppose with his camping gear. As far as I can tell, he wasn't paying any taxes or using electricity. There are still large areas of wilderness in the States where nobody lives. I can't think of any stronger example of living off the grid than what McCandless did. Although after seeing that YouTube video of a guy interviewing himself after a bear kicked his ass...

The presentation felt a bit robotic. You look tensed up when you're talking or something. I can't quite put my finger on it. Were you reading from a teleprompter or something off screen? The voice is too monotone. I'd look into some vocal training. I hear that even learning how to sing from an instructor can help with vocal training.

Go see it. See if you can do some volunteer work at the hospital or hospice care. There's nothing that will make you think more about your own death than seeing others dealing with theirs. After that, it'll be very easy to think about it every day. Funerals are good for this too. Lot's of funerals. And friends or relatives that are very sick. Even getting very sick yourself will let you see it. As you get older you're going to experience so much of it you're going to wish you hadn't. But it'll help you for now.

Of course it's good. I got it for myself at the start of the New Year. Let me give you my review: 1) Does it work? Have anyone find their definitive aim in life after doing the course? Like one sentence life purpose e.g" "I want to be a cardiologist who specializes only on the left side of the heart" A: The course starts out with an aim for people who aren't certain what they want to be. For me, I've been leaning towards being a writer, but wasn't sure if that's what I really wanted to do. Cardiologist would likely study the whole heart. I would know as my cardiologist is also my general practitioner for the past 10 years. In your specialization, I think the course would get you to talk about these specifics and then using the tools it provides be able to pick them apart. 2) How long does it take to complete the course? A: It can take a very long time. There are, I think 25+ hours of videos, which Leo could add to, but I don't think he has. There's another book list and there are exercises. Some of which can take time & require a lot of thought on your part to answer. 3) I already know that I want to pursue a career in music, but not so sure in the particular specialization : eg: conducting, performing piano, classical, jazz, rock music, film scoring, theatre, etc.. In that case, should I still do it? Yes. Are you into life-long education? I'm a self-help junkie & never had such a course before. All it can do is help you. It's not going to help you with your trade-skill, but it's more meta. Also, there are concepts he discusses in the Life Purpose course that still haven't been mentioned in the free channel. I kept wondering if/when it was going to happen. However, the current Actualized.org focus seems to be going in a different direction, so it probably won't, unless it turns around. 4) Is age important? Im past my 30s No. All walks of life are welcome. 5) Any things u didn't like of it? I think it could be longer & still hope Leo will add some more to it. That being said, I haven't finished it yet. I think I did about half of it & then got caught up a shit-ton of work. Although I'm coming back to it now. I'll be doing a review & then picking up where I left off. Also, I'm hitting the book list. Just ordered two more books on that list today. I want my head wrapped around the life purpose context. If you take it you're paying for a course. You're there to learn and the experience is what you get out of it by using the material. I consider it money well spent & I didn't think it was very expensive either. He could've charged a lot more.

Do you have any family like parents, brothers, or sisters? You should consider moving in with some relatives until you can get your life sorted out. Even if it means you have to relocate and get a new job, but try to find a new job in that location before you move. Next, I would consider Leo's Life Purpose Course. The entire course is designed to help you find out what you want to be when you grow up. I wouldn't be ashamed at being 30 and feeling these problems. I didn't realize it was an issue until I got into my early 40s. I don't feel bad about it however. Everyone arrives at these points at different times in their lives. The course is $249. If you can't afford that, consider Leo's booklist for $20 & focus on the stuff he has there which I believe is life purpose-related, also success-related, & business related. Lastly, you have nothing to be ashamed of. Congratulations, for figuring it out early.

If all you have around you is people that are "shallow" then why don't you try to dig deeper? If someone says they want to increase their likes on FB (assuming you are talking to them face to face and not online), then why don't you ask them, "Why do you want more likes on FB? What does that give you?" And start trying to steer the conversation away from shallow discussion. I once took this type of thinking at a bar with a person I met at a bar and ended up getting him to tell me about a near-death experience he had in a car crash only a year before. Get people to talk about themselves and they'll never stop talking.

When you go out on the weekends solo, it shouldn't be forced. Just go out on the weekend without setting any expectations. If you set expectations that you're trying to tap sugar walls, date with the hopes of a relationship, you might not meet anyone interesting when you go out that night or it blows up in your face. When I go out, I expect nothing in return & if something happens it's a nice surprise. If nothing happens, then it doesn't bother me. It used to but that was when I was setting expectations!

I looked around on the web and I could find nowhere to post this but in a YouTube comment section and it just isn't enough, so I thought I'd come here to post due to its relevance in the self-help community. It's just something interesting I noticed & have never seen before. Basically on March 30th, I was listening to the free Doc Love radio show. Usually, he'll start out in the first 5-10 minutes to give some really bad examples of celebrity relationships or crap articles from other dating coaches. For instance, he gave an example of Phil Collins taking back his wife who took $40 million from him in a divorce over 10 years ago. But on this Wednesday night, he basically reached out to confront another dating coach, Coach Corey Wayne! I've read parts of Doc Love's The System and Corey Wayne's book I've read twice. I've been listening to both of these guys for a few years now. Doc Love actually thumbed through Corey's book and reading off some passages that mirrored The System, such as interest levels. Also, Corey mentioned Doc Love in the book and he's even said he didn't agree with all of Doc Love's principles. It was implied, not so subtly that plagiarism was involved. Lastly a couple of callers had called in & bad-mouthed Corey Wayne before getting on with their story. Up until now, I'd never seen anything like this for people in the self-help community. It made me wonder about the potential for a lawsuit. For instance, I'd heard the inventors of NLP were in court suing each over who invented it. At any rate, I don't know if you can hear the rant on Doc Love's radio show without subscribing to his Radio Archives. I've been thinking about subscribing myself as the speed with which Doc Love can give an answer to somebody's problem is uncanny. It's second nature. He knows right where to explain things. I'm not really a fan of his dating dictionary however. $100 for his book is very steep, as opposed to Corey Wayne's book which is free or you can pay $10 for the digital or $15 for hard copy. Just wanted to see if anyone had heard it or had any comments on this. Best, SMD

I'm just now reading this but thanks for the reply and sorry for the delay! That's hilarious. Yeah I don't know if Coach manages the comments section or not. He says his assistant does..hahah, but who knows. It's probably him. He banned me from the comments section some time ago. I was posting comments away & nothing was happening. Found out after going in anonymously that he had my posts muted. Pretty damn annoying. Overall, Doc Love is pretty brutal. He's so ruthless sometimes. I once called in to tell him about this one date that went "sideways" and he stopped it right at the start: that it had been too long before she reached back out to me & that she was out already. He didn't want to hear the rest. But unlike CCW, Doc is banning me. He took my call and answered it as best he could through his System filter. I've never had much success with any of it but it did lead me to self-help and Leo's work. I mean, I basically saw Leo's channel advertised at the end of a CCW video..and I was like "What is this..." hahaha..

Well women have egos, too. It seems like a one-sided question because you're asking an ego-based female whether she likes men with big egos. I suppose it matters if the woman is interested in say: big house, big cars, lot's of kids, & bragging rights in her social circle about what her man is and/or what she does. Leo's mentioned it before: oxytocin. If you can have sex, it might be enough to create a bond with the woman and then the ego no longer matters. That bond in a relationship is almost unbreakable. Only the man in the relationship has the capability of screwing it up or severing it once it has taken hold. That has been my experience any way. If women I was dating were flighty or rejected me, it was because we hadn't had sex yet. They have to give in that first time & for some of us, well it's not easy to accomplish even that.
