But wouldn't it be you imagining this to be plausible?

So you think people have varying degrees of development and maturity?

Guilty for being wrong from someone's point of view lol.

What I am seeing is the Thinking dominant types have a tendency to want to think everyone is stupid, and this is a bias they do not see.

Cool cool.

Oh yeah.

Yeah, we need to believe we are lower down than we think we are. This is so annoying.

Oh Boy!

I have a music playlist on my YouTube channel with albums I like.

What I learned from this is that we are all very different. There is no need to try to win over someone. That is a waste of time. If you are interested in self-help, it might be interesting to you. But not more important than working on any endeavor that can be performed as an artwork. You might be great at underwater basket weaving for example. You might be the best in the world at eating the most hot dogs in a certain frame of time. But what does this do for you? And why should you insist that other people care about your creation? That alone is a question that is almost never noticed or asked.

Smart use of AI is really a constructive thing.

@Leo Gura I get the sense that you prefer not to be challenged.

But even that you are imagining, right? You are creating that sentence.

I like to enjoy life.

I think this is what people get bugged by. You can't just manifest anything, that is an overstatement. On the other hand, you do have a degree of manifesting. You have to figure that out in your own direct experience. You get a feel for it IMO. It is not resolved by some kind of general conclusion.

Standing on principle.

You have to get out of the individualist standpoint and integrate the collective standpoint. This is just work you can do. It does not mean that you lose your authenticity.

Which is what we all do on occasion if we are honest.

But that does not mean it was bad necessarily. I appreciated you both were very honest and articulated well. The idea that there is something wrong with the video should be put into question too. We all like to play the role of the Monday morning quarterback or critic after the artwork has been released. Props to you both. I would love to see more videos like this of us on the forum in general.

The conversation was very defensive on both sides.

I watched the entire video. I thought it was a good conversation. I appreciate disagreement as the norm actually just because we are all so different, and it is refreshing to see two people talking past each other but speaking different languages. You both are very interesting but very different personalities. It makes me wonder if there is a common language that we can all agree on to engage reality with, hmm. Our egos are so very different, and everyone has one! I appreciate the focus on results, but I also prefer the gentle touch of sharing instead of teaching, but then again my life coaching business doesn't make me any money. At the same time, results do matter. You can't start a successful business without someone wanting to pay you. I get that too. You kinda have to make someone feel like they need your product or service to get them to want to pay you money to relate with them. On the flipside, this can skew you to have a persona of frame controlling people in a specific subject area to believe you are the deliverer of what they secretly want, and you might be wearing that hat, which to a degree is a persona. I see this in a lot of spiritual teachers who are always in teacher mode. You can't just let your hair down and be a normal dude because you are chasing credibility and trying to hold a persona together to be a such and such to a so and so. I get that! I don't see that as bad necessarily. But breaking out of persona is kind of like a lawyer forgetting he is a lawyer when he comes home to the wife, kids, and friends after work. This is hard for many people to do.
