@ShinI think I got the trick. I relapse only when I watch porn and especially when I am edging What do you think about sex though?

@Shin LOL AHAHAHAHAHAHAH FUck its hard though tomorrow day one again

@Key Elements I think the delivery of the video was not good. Of course you focus on one thing as a job but you dont stop your everyday habits. That cancels out the whole personal development habits (like meditation, gym, reading etc) if taken literally. From my pov having good productive habits is the thing that grows you exponentially but i could be wrong.

@Leo Gura I've been aiming to do that since 2016 and everyone I encounter is not even interested in basic personal development work. I haven't even found a person that is pushing himself and having fun in crazy ways like me let alone do any amount of personal development work. I just encounter lazy fucks that want to sit on the sofa and watch tv with chips and coke or boring uni students that are so bland i cant even make small talk with them which somehow makes sense since that's what the mediocre majority does. So it is probably because: I have my standards too high I somehow repel people (maybe too aggressive, too assertive) My action is inadequate I don't know how and where to find them It is not a small deed to find like-minded people from my perspective, how would you go ahead and do that?

@Leo Gura @Echoes That's exactly me. Do i just dump the whole non duality pursuit and just focus on basic personal development? Or do i just keep my meditation practice and focus all my attention on my basic needs? How should i navigate this?

I dont know what to say about this video. The only thing i know for sure is that i am not as developed as i thought i am. I am puzzled in a weird way, i haven't fix basic needs yet but i still bother with nonduality. Maybe i am chasing two rabbits...

It sounds great but how can somebody do that especially when he doesn't have his fianances in order?

I find myself reading every comment without prejudice. In the past i used to screen certain people based on their rank or the absence of it, now i read every comment with an open mind.

I have exactly the same problem. Everytime i am on the internet i become extremely in urge of content or entertainment and i neurotically open twitch and leos blog and forum (although i have slready done that 10 times already). When i take s break from the pc (by putting the screen away) my brain deceives me that i need to watch x/y/z video from leo's course or other courses that i only have in my pc and my brain basically propagates me to put the screen back and i end up on twitch again.

@Sopot Be resourceful. Look for the solution not the problem. That's a useful mindeset shift in general. When others give up and find reasons to say "it's impossible" you find solution to the so called impossible problem.

After being in my job for a couple months I realized it is not such a good idea. It is a d2d sales job and after working 9-6 every day you are not even guaranteed money for your day's work unless you sell something, I am not going to go into detail to what money we get but it is barely minimum wage and only IF you sell something every day. So my dilemma is if I should stay in my current job (still 1>0 $) or if I should make it a part-time thing and work only in the mornings while working on my LP in the evening. I wondering if there are any jobs that would benefit from people like me with knowledge of the stuff we do here but I doubt it. The ideal scenario would be a job that also pays well, doesn't fry my brain like the sales one and also has a schedule open enough for me to work on my LP. Would it be worth it to do an online gig just to make some bucks in order to have the freedom of working on my LP without worrying about food and bills? What should I do based on your judgment?

@Arman Yeah it is not fun but I'd do it if i made more money or got good business knowledge and not just bs sales techniques.

@Seed Although it is really important for kids to get in touch with consciousness and awareness, I don't think we have the manpower for a whole subforum. You could make a post specifically for parents and people that interact with kids to get some answers you want.

@Leo Gura Here are some ideas: You keep it and limit the number of likes someone can do per day and maybe make them invisible to see who upvoted what. You have a hidden upvote-system and every post that has more than X amount of likes gets pinned/highlighted. You disable the liking system altogether.

@Leo Gura Come to Europe too, I bet there would be more than 20 people for sure. You could come to Europe and do one big event for everyone, I would be down to travel just for the event but it has to be more than 2 hours .

@Jonson Go plant-based for a month and if not satisfied go back to meat. If you do, eat meat in moderation and stay away from these kinds of meats in the photo (hotdogs, bacon, etc) These are the worse meats in terms of health. Ideally, study nutrition on your free time to get the big picture view and play around with your diet to find the ideal one for you.

After some time of mental masturbation and theory overload, some change occurred. I pumped up my amount of action, found a job and I bust my ass off just for the challenge and to exercise my work-ethic muscle. My biggest sticking point is that I get way too anxious to get results in game when my amount of action in that domain is not sufficient. Taking into account my meditation, strong determination sitting and conscious walks my spiritual practice feels really challenging lately especially in this purification process. Edit: Basically yesterday I didn't open a specific set and the rest went downhill. Still, don't know how I got so depressed yesterday.

@Leo Gura Is cold approaching all night solo without any wings effective? How would you do it? I know you aren't a PUA pro but I would like to hear your perspective.

Tai is a rare occasion that uses low consciousness marketing (materialistic thing like the lambo) to market his above-average consciousness brand that helps people learn about money economics and others and in general encourages people to read books which is great advice.

@Leo Gura Give me a longer answer to what mp22 said. I get that kind of response too often "You are deluded and not me" when I am talking about this kind of stuff with people. What is the best way to investigate If i am wrong and how do I communicate this?

@dustylocks I had watched this video when it was released and I had put some stuff aside in order to sell them but I wasn't getting the technical ebay stuff. Any video recommendations for shipping, how to list items etc? Thanks for the reminder.

@Dan94 How did you manage to choose an ideal medium and the domain of mastery?

Immense amounts of gratitude. The man I am today is because people brought valuable gifts to me one way or the other, the least I could do is give back.

@Serotoninluv Grab a sample of nothingness and give it an IQ test.

@Leo Gura And the funny part is that even if someone tries to debate with them (like Deepak Chopra) he can't win because the whole debate and logical arguments are just a game from the materialistic point of view. That's why there is so much ego involved. This video is so cringy I just cant...
