@NoSelfSelf i am aware of that video but I don't think it's necessary about how to ace life

I am not an expert but maybe it could be because of some limiting belief if you are interested I recommend reading the road less traveled by Scott peck there might be some useful information in there and on delaying gratification Hope you can use it

i think it would be best to take control but with responsibility, there might be some disadvantage to let things be at least i don't recommend doing it too often

isn't being authentic doing what the ego wants? isn't the ego everything that makes up your identity? at least that's how i understood it if that's what it is then its probably always an egoic desire

Hi does anyone know how to be extremely happy? Some times i have seen or met people who looks like they really where happy pretty much every where you saw them even if something difficult would happen i am aware that there is something called being optimistic but is that really it? (They where able to do it without anything external while being authentic)

@Leo Gura but i am not researching the things i already know except if i want to know more about them it was only an example (of previous/earlier research) the usual approach i do when researching is doing it for something I don't know a lot about but think is useful

I think the key is to hone your skills (new or old ones) to do that i recommend doing deliberate pratice and deep work there probably is no quick fix to this other than doing the work it takes

But i have no clue what DMT is at all but i am aware that i am doing research that seems to "mirror" my world view but actually the way i do it is to go with what i find likely to be as close to reality as possible that would work for example if i where to research a plan for something that requires learning the things i would look for is deep work, deliberate pratice etc as they seem to be the one i most likely need for the project to be successful in this case if it where something to deal with emotions what you describes in how to deal with strong negative emotions seems to be what would be most useful at least to have something to start with (really awesome video btw)

I think it might be an important topic as there can be some consequences if you aren't careful about how you use the internet some of the disadvantages of using internet are for example your skill to concentrate will be lower (due to attention residue) create anexity trouble falling a sleep(I haven't read any research on this but it something i have observed when I didn't use the internet for sometime i had easier to fall asleep compared to when i used the internet a lot before i had to sleep) being used as a distraction for avoiding feeling difficult emotions wasting to much time that you could have used on more important and rewarding things and probably a lot of other things i haven't mention Would be awesome if leo made a video about it in depth

I think it can be an easy trap to fall into the idea that what you think is truth is actually a belif would be awesome if he did a video on how you could know that the understanding you have of an idea is actually truth and that its not a belief or vice versa

probably because not many talk about it i never heard a word of it anywhere i go and it isn't part of the usual education

But what i am talking about is just doing research for preparation for doing something, like building your infra structure for success

@pluto i was referring to the idea about taking pure/recrystalized MDMA 1.5mg/kg but still thanks for the elaboration very usefull

@Ether thanks for the info

@Ether whos video and what book?

Because you provide with the research and know more about it

But they was able to be that happy without taking anything external

But you should be able to know before you try something there is a lot of information out there there should be information about this too especially if its a common thing

Why not? You could still have multiple goals both good

@snowleopard but I don't think anyone have said (I don't really think its fair to say it wouldn't convince me before somebody had a chance to write it) that so far but I suppose that make sense but the first thing about matter that came to mind was atoms, quacks, etcs i am not sure if that's what it is but just speculation in terms of what matter is made of as I don't have a understanding about what matter is made of

@Leo Gura awesome Good luck

@Leo Gura but then how does it actually work?

@ajasatya i am not trying to be enlightenment at least at the moment because i have other things i need to get done(such as working on what i think my life purpose is and i have nothing against it just for clearification) i just try to focus one thing at a time as I believe it's the best way to get the best results(i am not saying that's that how it is only that's what i belive and it might be wrong) and all i am trying to do is to get a clearification on why there should be something wrong with the topic mentioned in the first post

@ajasatya but what did you mean by being stuck stuck from what? And why did you think i was afraid of acknowledging my ignorance? who said science was about the ultimate realization of who you are? Isn't it about understanding how the world works?

@ajasatya why would i be afraid of acknowledging my ignorance if i was really afraid why would i have asked the question to begin with? what i understand of the scientific method is that it's about getting data that as close as possible to the turth like neil explain in this video and what did you mean by stuck forever stuck from what?
