  1. The problem with solipsism is characterizing the other in a way that is plausible and consistent.
  2. So you think people have varying degrees of development and maturity?
  3. Guilty for being wrong from someone's point of view lol.
  4. 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.
  5. Yeah, we need to believe we are lower down than we think we are. This is so annoying.
  6. I have a music playlist on my YouTube channel with albums I like.
  7. 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.
  8. Smart use of AI is really a constructive thing.
  9. @Leo Gura I get the sense that you prefer not to be challenged.
  10. But even that you are imagining, right? You are creating that sentence.
  11. I like to enjoy life.
  12. 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.
  13. Standing on principle.
  14. 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.
  15. Which is what we all do on occasion if we are honest.
  16. 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.
  17. The conversation was very defensive on both sides.
