@Bjorn K Holmstrom That's a brilliant proposal. We need more post life purpose tools, I agree. It's one thing to have the life purpose and another thing to have a paying job or career that implements the life purpose.

@Judy2 I'm curious what your life purpose is when you get to that point in the course, if you want to share it.

Have you tried to use the words Leo provides in the exercise in the course? I find those words to be really good. I did the course 6 years ago, here was my list: 1. Personal Development 2. Independence 3. Contribution 4. Peace of Mind 5. Knowledge 6. Self-expression 7. Kindness 8. Equality 9. Travel 10. Health I did the course a second time I think 2 years later and there was a slight change in order but the exact same values. Health went up higher on the list the second time.

I'm interested in the details here. How do you know it comes from this?

@Judy2 Can you give us a tentative list?

Without the King there is no game.

I traveled to Taiwan for 2 weeks in 2016 and it was one of the best trips I ever had. They call it the Heart of Asia, which it really is. Look into the history to get a pretext as to why that is. One of the most integrous place I've ever been/seen! And they still have temples as they were not torn down, as they were in other places.

The King has infinite value.

@Ishanga What would you like to be working on more, ideally, in a community like this or see others working on?

Personally, I love it here now. People laugh together mostly instead of at each other, which I appreciate.

Good point. That's a significant difference.

Apple in its early days reminds me of Japan for some reason. Everyone is a family working together.

Don't companies like Google try to mimic this by providing more of a holistic and community-oriented campus where work and life are sort of blurred?

If feel like shown in the best light they create with friends in a group where the boundaries between me and you, work and play, are more integrated and less brite-line individualist distinct like we do in the U.S. They're socializing and communing throughout the day; not just an individualist assembly line of individual cogs like we imagine.

They're not thinking of work as an individual who leaves the group, goes to an impersonal job, and then returns to "family" after work.

It's much better now than before in my opinion.

We think of work with Western individualist eyes, like I am going to work. They look at it like we are going to work.

You don't feel a difference between when a holiday appears and a regular day?

How could anyone eat 24g of mushrooms, this is way extreme, maybe am I wrong? This seems outrageous.

I feel like it takes maturity to develop authenticity on some level.

I think so. Everyone has to get money to survive. You don't want to be too pure that you can't start a business.
