Also the rest of you can take a look at this so you know I'm not making it up. http://www.dark-bid.com/rigged-job-market.html

That amazing stuff is just a Yoda head I saw that plenty of times before not very original. I agree though the objects aren't really that great but, I'm working on making more that are more complex. Just got to keep at it. Also I didn't make any of those on blender I made them on Fusion 360 which is way more advance.

@ajasatya can't work hard at a job you don't have...

@spicy_pickles maybe this'll help

How did you go about starting a business?

So anyway I went back to my high school and it really felt as if I was in some 3rd world country parallel Universe. I go into the principals office and ask the secretary if they have any CAD or 3D modelling courses and of course they said no. They said if I wanted to start something like that I'd need to talk to the administrative offices across the street. I went to talk to HR and told them about my idea and they said to do anything I needed a teaching credential. I asked them if they could at least show my event but, they said I needed to come back another day. So I could've left right then and there but, I decided to ask a question and that was if they had any classes on personal finance or anything like that and she just flatly said no. Then I responded with disgusted saying how terrible that was. I honestly told them that I graduated 10 years ago and as an alumni they didn't even teach me anything useful like something I could present an employer with. Then she gave me some dumb generic answer as to how their curriculum was preparing students for Cal State and UC schools which in my opinion was complete BS. I talked about how the finance class was so important for the students so when they take out loans they'll know what they're doing instead of going through the process blindly. Then she answered that the curriculum wasn't exactly made by the school but, the lawmakers in the Sacramento. Then after that I'd said I'd get in touch with them. The one thing I noticed when I said it was terrible that courses on practical every day things weren't being taught in the schools to her it seemed like her brain went into meltdown mode and she didn't know how to respond to me. I find it amazing how our stupid high schools are like these meat grinders where kids go and they loose their creative talents, their individuality, and learn how to become mindless cogs in a machine. It's so idiotic, cruel, and unenlightened. When I got home I did get in contact with the department of education to talk to them about these things and they told me I had to call my local assembly members and Senators to go over education law with them. I really keep thinking to myself just how stupid are these people to not think about these things and put in into a curriculum. It's unbelievable just how much of an idiotic sham what we are doing to the future inhabitants of the world is. I don't understand how a society can sustain such bullshit but, it seems like it's just about imploding on itself.

I had the same kind of problem but, little by little I learned how to do practical things that got me to where I wanted to be.

A step by step approach is a better idea than having some giant ideal in your head and never taking action.

That part is obvious the problem is that there are tons of people in LA and not enough opportunities. I would think that the dumb schools would actually lead me in that direction to make a portfolio and teach me the skills I'd need and how to connect with those employers. The problem is that I need to know specifics. As you can see for that 3D printing job I did have the value they needed but, they got someone who had more value than I did. It becomes a lottery when they don't give you a chance to prove your value and instead they go by these Application Tracking Systems (ATS). I know that I have skills and the portfolio but, I guess what I need help on is marketing myself. Another obstacle is that the 3D printing field is an emerging industry so there aren't that many openings I see in the field here so far. I took those 6 month courses specifically to create the portfolio and have the skills to bring something enticing to the table. The one thing I'm having trouble with is that with the internet the job market has become very confusing and random. My value can't really be presented in a resume and I'm trying to find out what these employers actually want because they tend to want you to have tons of experience when they're not likely to give you a chance to start something if you don't have experience. I think What I need to do is come up with a winning strategy to somehow get their attention. The good news is that I organized a 3D printing event at the Microsoft store and if I'm lucky I'll network that way and present my value after I held the event there and it has been successful. I know I blew off a lot of steam in the previous post but, I was really annoyed. Even if you have a lot of skills and value there's still someone else out there in a county of more than 10 million people that are bound to have more value than you so it becomes dog eat dog. Also Leo I did the statistics Las Vegas's population is 1/15th that of LA's population. (I remember in a video you said you live there). So it makes it that much harder. Anyway It's only been 2 weeks I graduated from that program but, I just hate this job hunting stuff it's really annoying and it gets degrading.

@Leo Gura Is this what you mean by no free will?

This is precisely why I want to find a way to turn off my mind but, it's almost impossible. Since you're here I want to tell you about the frustrating process I go through when I lie in bed and I have one of these frustrating mind loops. I lay there in bed thinking of all the bullshit I was told when I was young. Study hard, get good grades, follow all the rules, get a degree and viola that high paying job and that reasonable life await you... Then when you grow up and you find out that these people are full of shit you want to beat the crap out of them. I think about all the jobs I applied to that were minimum wage and at my young age I could've easily done them and never got a chance to do them. I think about even now with a degree and a good amount of vocational education I still couldn't get that 3D printing job that would've made me so happy and even the crappier digital printing job that I was willing to settle for but, I didn't really want. Then I end up going in a mind loop I want to kick the world in its ass for all the BS it filled my mind with when I was young. I keep thinking to myself "you lied to me you no good son of a bitches" over and over again. Then even when I tell my mind to shut up be quiet and let me sleep I still can't stop thinking about those thoughts. I keep painting myself as this decent good guy who has been betrayed by greedy evil scumbags (even though you mentioned we're all the devil). Then I start thinking to myself did those kids at Sandy Hook deserve what they got when they were shot up with an assault rifle because a mentally deranged individual had access to those weapons then how could I be complaining about my life... but, I still complain about my life. Then it makes it worse and I think how can I live in such a sick, disgusting evil world where that is allowed to happen. As you said though it was supposed to happen because it happened. Even these mind loops I'm discussing right now might not be under my control and that's the mind fuck about these mind loops lol. If only I can end these mind loops somehow reprogram and rewire myself not to think about these things but, they are a part of my DNA that I can't seem to shed. I keep thinking of a way to get some sort of pay back for how shitty I was treated when I was younger and all the opportunities I didn't get to have because of the stupid job market. Things are improving in my life though but, somehow in my psyche I feel betrayed and feel as though I deserve some sort of compensation even though that's really a figment of my imagination and the Universe doesn't work like that. I guess the best I can do is not get frustrated at myself for having these mind loops because even my thoughts aren't mine. Maybe meditate more and understand that I'm not in charge let things happen with out an opinion. Bottom line easier said than done but, I'm so happy I have this community to share this stuff with instead of keeping it bottled up.

Ironically though doesn't that mean that enlightenment might be impossible because we don't have the free will to become enlightened due to determinism??? Since nothing is in our control...

@Leo Gura Did you ever manage to convince your mom to do some psychedelics?

Hey Leo about your recent episode I think Weird Al beat you to it.

Here's what confuses me watching Leo's latest video on psychedelics it really looks like he has a passion for coming up with ideas on how our society should be changed. I also do as well but, my ideas are different and I have some of them laid out in my blog over here http://bakshandehariel.wixsite.com/website. My question is why hasn't Leo tried to get his name out there a little more? I also am trying to do that but, it's extremely hard and in this low conscious society people tend to not pay attention to or outright ignore high conscious things. The only reason I knew about actualized.org and the YouTube channel is by random chance. I was looking for something like this for the longest time but, never knew this existed until I did. Basically my search for truth and meaning came by watching religious people debate atheists. It came from a sense of fear about what happens when people pass away/die. So I watched debates with mainly rabbis (because I'm Jewish) debate atheists. I always thought to myself if the atheists were right then that would really suck because life would be pointless. It wasn't until I saw this flyer for an Atheist Jew who died and had an NDE (Near Death Experience) that all of a sudden I was so happy and I said to myself g-d exist and there is good evil and an afterlife. I thought to myself after listening to his story it made a lot of sense and I'd become an Orthodox Jew. Now this led a to a lot of trouble in my life because as a Conservative Jew we don't restrict ourselves as much as the Orthodox ones. Then I heard that anything to do with technology, turning on a light, and driving we couldn't do on Friday nights and Saturdays in the mornings and near the evening. This was a gigantic restriction that was frustrating me but, it was extremely important in Orthodox Judaism and I couldn't see myself doing it. Anyway to wrap this up I ended up not going through with it because I just couldn't bare the brunt of all the radical changes I had to make in my life. After that I saw this thing on the internet called Jumpcut academy were they teach you how to make a living on YouTube from being a viral star. When I joined the program I wanted to introduce important life changing topics but, that didn't seem what people were interested in. I made one friend in Jumpcut academy who seemed to have a self improvement page just like I did who introduced me to the Self-Actualization videos and that's when I found this community. Finally what I saw in Leo was the middle ground I was looking for in the religious people vs. atheists debate. He wasn't as strict and dogmatic as the religious people and unlike the amazing atheist on YouTube he wasn't just saying that everything was meaningless and nonsense and their are no profound truths out there. I'm just wondering why me, Leo and the people here on Actualized.org aren't getting any attention out there in the public sphere. I'm wondering why Leo never decided to go mainstream and why he wouldn't have a voice on at least a cable channel or maybe even a local news network in Las Vegas so more people know that people like him do exist. I'm just wondering where other people who feel lost in our crazy and unconscious society who are looking for something like this will actually ever have a chance to find it.

Doesn't have to be truth just a place to find like minded people and get away from the nonsense I see on a day to day basis.

They can think what they want. It's a free country (at least where I live).

None of you might expect this coming from a guy and I've really haven't told this to anyone really except for maybe my therapist and my best friend but, yeah even at 28 years old the prospect of anything to do with sex and romance really doesn't interest me and I doubt that it ever will. When you guys think back to your preteens and early teens around I think 11, 12, and 13 did you all have the same feeling whenever you had sex education and learnt about puberty like that yuck factor. I mean when I think about it even at this age I'm almost 30 still a virgin and guess what happy to be a virgin and not ashamed. I just really think that it's just gross when I think about it. I mean the penis is a place where I pee from and it really disgusts me that it's the same place that holds the ingredients for life so to speak. I mean when I think about it I was hoping there could be a different way. It just seems like the Universe is playing a joke on us. The same place our body creates people is near (if you're a woman) and actually is (if you're a man) next to a sewage processing plant. I mean that's just messed up. It's funny when I think about how I grew up and anything to do with sex I just laughed at and saw it as some kind of joke. Then when everyone the same age as me were dating and were so interested in it I never really cared. I really just wanted friends that I could have a deep connection with and never cared about romance in any type of way at all. Maybe it has something to do with my parents divorce. It's funny this rabbi was asking me so when are you going to get married. I'm all like in a couple of years but, to tell the truth I most likely never will and don't care for it. I have bigger fish to fry. Also I'm kinda thinking to myself as crazy as this may sound that giving birth could quite possibly be an act of rape. You're really forcing existence on someone who didn't ask for it. Especially if that someone is going to suffer. For those out there saying we owe so much to our parents for giving us life I actually have a counter argument. First of all Leo says we don't even exist but, that's not my counter argument. Even if Leo is wrong and it turns out somehow we do exists think about this for a moment. We're going to end up dying anyway (unless some time in the future they come up with some special way we can be immortal) and we didn't even exist for the time that we existed I'm wondering in a million years of being non-existent that we weren't aware of were we suffering for all those years?? Anyway it feels good to put this stuff out there and be validated.

Leo said he knew some enlightened people so I'm wondering if an enlightened parent were to have a child how would that child grow up. Would that child be given a name or just told that he or she doesn't exist. Would they even want that child to have a personality or is that part of an ego. Would the child go into a meditation regiment and be told that all he or she sees around him or her is false and that they are part of a Universe where their is no such thing as good and evil. It's really got me thinking. Does anyone else have any ideas. I'm thinking most likely enlightened people would have no children because not having them puts them in a state of not existing but, ironically even having the children does the same thing. So many paradoxes in this enlightenment stuff because absolute infinity includes everything so that means we exist and we don't at the same time... This stuff is extremely confusing.

@YaNanNallari I was just responding to @Pallero who was assuming I had unresolved issues. And no this idea isn't on the forefront of my mind all the time I just wanted to get it out there because people just assume things about other people.

@Pallero Well, in my past I was really hurt by my parents divorce and the crap that happened to me as a child. I think it has nothing to do with the sex thing though. I just find it naturally gross and I'll give you an example imagine if someone felt it was amazing to blow there nose with all over your mouth and body and rub it on you. I just think semen looks too much like snot from the nose and it's made up of mucous as well I find nothing exciting about it. Also I just find it so strange that the same place we pee from as men is the same place that life comes from. I don't know it's just really weird and strange to me. Growing up though I was always different most of my peers were interested in sports and things like parties and I never was. So I think your childhood trauma thing is a plausible theory but, in this instance it doesn't apply to me.

Let's think of information as food and doing something with the information as activity of exercise. So here we have our schools filling up kids head with information to the brim but, never telling or showing them where or when to use that information in their lives. How to use the information productively or where it might benefit them. Their minds are full of Shakespeare, parabolas, literature, and polynomials. The thing that's missing is the time to actually take them out of a classroom and maybe have something like a field trip into the real world and show a person who has a job and show these kids to actually use the information in a way that actually makes a difference in their lives, brings them money, happiness and or makes the world a better place. The brain food is all there but, then the brain just keeps getting stuffed and stuffed and stuffed then the brain calories aren't burned off in a productive or helpful way. Then what we're left with is depressed kids and a high unemployment rate. ALL THANKS TO OUR IGNORANT AND INCOMPETENT EDUCATION SYSTEM!!

Here are my feelings in video form.

@Zane what kind of jobs are you searching for?
