  1. Watch Leo's video in the Dreamkillers Series titled "#4 Setting Small Goals". Log into his website and you should have this in your folder. I can't link it here unfortunately. But it is highly on point with your question. The Mind is subjecting you to a limiting-belief. It's a trap. Leo describes it well in the video.
  2. This is great. Exploiting vagueness. The Guru must be clear though, that's why being one is hard.
  3. When you are acting from the Authentic-Self, Law of Attraction kind of happens automatically. This is because the Mind is on board with what you're doing. When the Mind is conflicted, that's when you get all the resistance and monkey-mind.
  4. Just know what you want, be aware, start taking action -- and the strategy should take care of itself. Don't let the Mind make finding the right strategy beforehand a limiting-belief on taking action. Thinking in terms of strategy can become a block when the Mind uses it as an excuse to stall taking action until the "right strategy" can be found -- which never happens! Thus you are blocked from taking action. So, just be clear about what you want, be mindful, take action -- and the how-to will become clear in the moment.
  5. Do some Shadow Work. You have some baggage that is rattling around in your Subconscious Mind. You need to start to deal with that. This is a good video that kind of introduces you to the issue:
  6. This is one reason why I choose to be alone most of the time. It's because I can sense the manipulative energy in people. I hate overhearing someone getting backstabbed. It's like a car-crash too, everybody was to grab a peek of it. It's a very cheap way to get attention from others. When you talk shit about someone or something, the spotlight is on you -- you're the star for the moment. A lot of people do this with politics too. They're always turning things political to try to get attention and the spotlight. They want to feel right and smart and worthy. Really, they just look like judgmental pricks.
  7. I supplement with Plant Protein. Make sure to get enough Vitamin B12. https://www.amazon.com/PlantFusion-Complete-Protein-Vanilla-Servings/dp/B0021FEMZG
  8. It removes a lot of suffering from your life.
  9. Music can be a conduit for higher-consciousness. It can disrupt culture and allow you to get up underneath culture. Music can also calm and relax the Mind, which changes how the Mind judges and controls. You dissolved the Ego for a little bit by changing your context with the music.
  10. Low-consciousness is gonna prevail over higher-consciousness because the Ego feeds off existing culture. Higher-consciousness requires arms-lengthing culture. That is much harder to do. It requires courage and guidance.
  11. Yes. Karma is simple. It means that low-consciousness actions are like spitting into the wind, they come back on you. So, when you act from the Ego, you get suffering back from that. Basically, if you act unauthentically -- the Mind has to by necessity be at war with itself.
  12. How are you going to deal with your self-esteem issue?
  13. You can think of Enlightenment as Awareness. It is a seeing of the landscape.
  14. I'm not really a fan of the word "infinite". I know Leo likes it though.
  15. You could benefit from doing some shadow work I think. You got a lot of stuff rattling around in your subconscious mind that needs to be worked with.
  16. Have you snapped back into things yet!
  17. What is Truth with a Capital T? Contemplate that first. Gimme some of your words to work with.
  18. You need to go through Leo's Life Purpose Course. The sooner you can get started the better.
  19. Congratulations! Yep — Enlightenment is very practical. It’s not just a bunch of fancy things to say. You should be feeling things change. That’s true progress. I’m happy for you.
  20. I love this answer. Very thought provoking.
  21. The Ego can only be as good as the low-consciousness awareness that allowed the ideas and habits to accumulate the way they did that the Mind clings to: The scripts and patterns that you've been programmed to run or expect. Awareness is what dissolves the Ego over time if one is properly walking the path of Enlightenment. The Guru guides the tenderfoot through the forest. Watch this video:
  22. Yep. If you wanna nip this issue in the bud, do Leo's Life Purpose Course. I'm doing it myself right now, and this is what that course deals with. You gotta go through the Life Purpose process, which is a lengthy and deep process. The Mind doesn't think Life Purpose is needed. I've requested that Leo do a video on that issue. The Mind will tell you that Life Purpose work is frivolous work. That's a trap. Life Purpose work is as important as Enlightenment work.
  23. I see it. All of the dualities are partial and illusory. He's messing with space and time too. Neither are to any kind of scale. Notice the small houses and the size of tree in the foreground. He's fucking with space there! Space is behaving in a non-linear way. ////////////////////////////////////////////////// Here's a pic I like:
