@The Universe To really see the connection between Self-Discipline and long time progress.

Patience

Good question, in some way everyone already has a life purpose and is living it now I think. If everyone right now would be able to manifest their highest potential, who would want to do the mundane/dirty/monotone work that supports the platform of todays society on which you can live out you're highest purpose?

Are you sure about this?

Sorry, accepted!!

@LifeandDeath I just posted this quote on another thread but I´d like to share it with you. "Live your life in such a way that death will be your friend" - Astrid Lindgren

@LifeandDeath Can´t say I have totally but to a large degree I have excepted my own approaching death, which have made my life so much more joyful and interesting. The fear of death is running most peoples lives I think. All fears/anxietys originate from fear of death. Anxiety of loosing this and that and finally you´re own life. Truth is, it was never yours from the beginning so there is nothing to loose. Death is not opposite to life, it is the opposite of birth. Without death there could be no life. I believe that if you can overcome the fear of death, you can overcome anything.

It seems lika a lot of spiritual seekers fall in the trap of desiring the things on this list, which automatically put them out of the list.

Live your life in such a way that death will be your friend. - Astrid Lindgren

My experience is that these moments of loneliness are painful but also an opportunity for growth. When I finally accepted my loneliness, in some magic way I started to attract other people and friends.

Any example?

Very true!

You are taking about very complexed highly developed creatures not very far away from your self out of a evolutionary perspective, right?

My intuition says that if I can totally overcome the fear of death, all doors of possibility will be open. The ignorance of humans own death and the ignorance of the impermanence of all things I think is one of the biggest problems in our society. If only people really knew how short and fragile their lives are a lot of things i society would change for the better. The realisation that I will stop to exist one day is making me grow very fast and makes me want to do the best of this very short time.

Now be silent. Let the One who creates the words speak. He made the door. He made the lock. He also made the key. ~ Rumi

@LowPlanetary I use to think of how short life is and that I (and all human beings that is alive now) will stop to exist very soon. That thought also make me feel more reverence towards all things.

This is pretty much in line with the benefits I gained after starting with a daily meditation/yoga routine

@aryberry So how would you describe the essence of this in one or two sentences?

This is my favourite breakfast, love when it look like this. For me - the day can not start any better. Of course a bit more expensive than a so called "normal" breakfast but this one gives me a 100 times more energy. This one will keep me going strong for 5 hours . - Cashewnuts (a handfull) - Rawfood bread (any kind) with tomatoes and seasalt - A glas of rawfoodsmothie based on blueberries - One grapefruit - Chiaporridge based on almond milk with fruit and nut topping - A small glas of fresh orangejuice - A cop of Chaga mushroom tea

@Annie Not anything in particular but if they cough a lot for example i,ll give them som extra, they love it

@Nahm Everthing is god so he can not, not be god!

I also give my small kids an edge of a spoon pretty often, I believe it helps to build up the immune defense. Knock on wood but they have been well and without the typical kindergarten diseases for a long time now....

I use Manuka honey in my smoothie, half a teaspoon. The taste is unbelievable good. It is expensive! With all proven health benefits in consideration it is a good buy I think.
