But there is a You that goes beyond mind, right? What is That/This which can be named and also does in fact Exist, if anything? -
I feel better than ever. I look forward to going thru my notes and making some to do lists about life purpose and some self-help/personal development improvements. I was able to connect a lot during this holiday period, so I feel great.

@James123 You seem to take the position that the body exists, what about the mind and/or Consciousness, do these exist? -
This is true to a certain extent. Collaboration with AI is key. But you have to watch it for bias, and when over-reliance can cause (often does cause) you to over-trust. It's a tool.

I've used AI occasionally, but it can't replace your judgment. It's like any other tool, you have to use it with caution and don't over-rely on it to solve every problem.

You can see how Robert Greene evolved over the years. He hasn't always been the same, he's growing like all of us over time.

Do you think or feel there is no separate self? -

You don't even need the therefore or proof. It's just I AM, no? -

When you're motivated to do something, you're on board so the pain is endured with a kind of pride not a feeling of rolling a boulder up a hill indefinitely. The trick is to get motivated, and stay motivated, to form new habits so you can get the results you want via the changes needed.
