also removed a tony robbins book & mindset by carol dweck He mentions that they're still in the source code if you want them. not sure how to do that tho

Thanks all

@Joseph Maynor thanks for your work man if you're right that leo is green/yellow, im wondering how he could do a video on turquoise without having experienced it yet Perhaps there's such a bad reaction because you failed to meet people at their stage. But i guess that's hard to do considering everyone is on their own stage Also, I look forward to your work in Coral in the years to come. i'm excited for that

@MECT Yep Read a lot. And take action a lot. And when you fall down, don't lose hope keep picking back up. You will make it

I can attest that affirmations work beautifully well. I can attest to Leo's how to stop being a victim. Sit, watch and deeply contemplate for a long time (perhaps weeks). You have to get to the point of epiphany Make small changes to grow. Look at which habit you think will give you the most return on time and implement that one. Make it small, and doable. And after 30 days, build another one and another one, until you've built many positive healthy habits and your life is going in a super direction! I can literally promise you that you can get better. Like if I did it, anyone can.

Hahaha same! I had an ex do this as well I tried to get her to meditate with me, eat healthy, go to the gym, etc. She tried them all like once, because it ended up just being for me because she loved me She literally did not care. She just wanted to get fucked up, eat junk food and watch TV How deeply I did not resonate with her habits... Thank god that ended. She found a nice boyfriend who resonates with such things lol.

i think ive conquered my arguments and conflicts with people. too much turmoil, no benefit, weakened relationships... whats the point of arguing?

@Outer You forgot status

How to optimize my day: Today I failed at finishing my personal development work. But that's okay, this is just all part of the journey. It's a very fulfilling process. Why did I fail? - Noticed I made an excuse to play video games -> Behavior change: Recognize that you may not feel like it, but you must do whatever it takes to get the minimum completed. - Made an excuse to masturbate -> Behavior change: Recognize that the mind will come up with any excuse to get you to not work! - I went for lunch with family and when I came back, the first thing I should have done was went right to beginning my blocks. Is going to the library okay to work? Sometimes I hate work alone in solitude. It gets boring. But I say: Let's go work at the library. But what happens is I go to the library, get food, procrastinate some more, get fed up and say "let's go work at home". So I go back home and procrastinate more! It's an endless fucking cycle of procrastination! Sometimes it feels too challenging and stressful, which is why it may not happen all the time. I failed because the block seemed to challenging and not enjoyable. Therefore, there was a heavy amount of resistance and I did not get the block done. I really want to be able to conquer this. How do I conquer this? Recognize that resistance is the gate that you must open to reach your success. Because on the other side of resistance is the pot of gold - what you desire. You are 100% committed, so no matter the sickness, no matter the issue, you 100% get it done. I should have got my exercise done. I really just didn't feel like it. Therefore, I did not consciously get my blocks done at all. It feels really bad, and I feel hopeless and guilty. It really makes me feel powerless when I do not accomplish my blocks. However when I have a good streak, I feel confident and worthy. The hardest part is just the starting, once the block begins, it's much easier to continue and many times it's not bad at all. Especially if I do the block consciously and mindfully. It's kind of like momentum builds. Just start, and the work almost happens by itself. Some things I want to tackle: Doing a block where I just sit and try to remember something for 20 minutes straight. Make my blocks in my mind as enjoyable as possible and also figure out a way to make them as enjoyable as possible. Key takeaways: 100% commitment to the routine. Because otherwise your mind will come up with excuses. 100% commitment to the minimum. Goal is maximum but commitment is to the minimum. Going to the library is fine. But there cannot be use of phone, computer , or distractions to ensure that you are not being lulled by the distractions.

Tinder worked best for me, wasn't a fan of bumble because I got no matches on it.

@Spiral I agree. But I was lonely as well, so I went with it. And like you're saying, seems like she doesn't see me as enough, because she picks other people and situations as they arise. At least so it seems and feels like it. Not sure @Hello from Russia Yes, just friends. I don't have intent to date her

Awesome! In the sense of art & self-expression, it's awesome

[Incomplete] Working on this quote: "What prevents growth? Ungratified deficiency-needs, the attractions of safety and security, the functions of defense and protection against pain, fear, loss, and threat, and the need for courage in order to grow ahead." -- Abraham Maslow What is growth first of all? Growth to my understanding is the human growing in some manner. There's two types of growth Root growth vs Surface growth. Leo uses the words real growth vs fake growth. Root growth is when you solve an issue at its core. Such that, the issue that occurred at the surface no longer occurs. An example of this would be if you have an anger problem for when people call you short. You can solve this problem by not hanging out with people that call you short. However, this does not fix the root issue. Because, you are still get hurt and insecure about being short So, you may have stopped getting angry, but this is just surface level growth. Root growth would be getting to what the core issue of the problem is and solving that. Because when you solve and heal the core, the insecurity It could be a childhood problem where you were bullied for being short. That's not to say surface level growth is not useful! If you are getting bullied all the time with people calling you short, leave them! You'll feel better in the short-term. You can also get better later by doing personal development exercise that

Thanks for the post. I love when people say something impacts them like this. I will check out the video now

This was a great video. I got lots of insights. I encourage you to take it slow and ponder it deeply. She goes deeper than Leo Gura did in his similar video. Surprised actually, because usually Leo Gura is the best. But Leo does different stuff now

wait how necessary is humor? I have humor but only with close friends. So I guess I have humor Never mind

do we have any turquoise or yellow leaders?

same. but it's not extreme to that point. it definitely gives me anxiety though

Something I noticed: Leo once said to be careful of the content that you put into your eyes and ears I notice that music I listen to in the morning, I find myself singing to it later I notice that if I watch some video, I end up thinking about that topic. I think I also contemplate it over and over again. I also bring up these topics in discussions If I consume a lot of good content, I find myself using those insights occasionally But I also find that too much content bogs down my brain and causes info saturation ---- I also noticed right now that contemplation takes time. I may not develop the insight now. But by being focused and directed, I think I am making a lot of progress. Thank you Leo for all of your contemplation videos. This is amazing along my journey and I hope to use it grow. I am along my Hero's Journey and I'm excited to see what's to come. ---- I want to raise my consciousness in many areas. Increase my mindfulness, and increase my contemplation. Let's go to the moon baby. Self-awareness insights: - I deeply desire to care and love a depressed/hurt person. To nurture, love and bring them back to health. - I've noticed I have this thing of trying to receive love by displaying my hurt. It's like my way of receiving love from the other person. Hahaha. I've noticed I did this when I was younger. I would show that I was hurt to my parents when they've hurt me so that I could receive their love. I would hide underneath my bed to try and get them to look for me after they yelled or I would not talk to them for days to try and get love from them. I watch a lot of cheating prank videos. I think I watch this because I want to see the other person care. Wait holy FUCK. I just noticed those two self-awareness insights are similar! Oh my god something bigger at play here Is this way I see love? When I was a kid. I would notice my mom would pout when my dad hurt her and my dad would try to console her. Hmmm...

@Ether Ah yes Harsh truth. Hope you're wrong. I'm going to try to salvage it as much as possible. But I'm also open to letting go

My intuition is saying to cut off my friend I don't know if it's my intuition actually or if it's even right But I do know I am suffering deeply from the relationship Can it be salvaged? Don't know. </3

I have found my new love: Philosophy. The mother of results. A deeply fulfilling activity. Flow.

One Important Aspect Of Success: Consistency What is consistency? Consistency is the work you put in daily towards a vision. It's about doing the daily work and task to get to your vision. Success is created by a compounding effect of daily disciplines that eventually lead to your goal. Success isn't created out of nowhere, like people seem to think. People don't create a massive business out of nowhere or lose 200 lbs out of nowhere. They put in hard work over a long period of time. A business is created by putting in a large body of work. There is a certain amount of work that is required to make a business successful. It can take several hundred hours. Those several hundred hours are spread out over months of time. You have to spend couple days learning finance, couple days learning your specific business model, couple days implementing strategy, couple days working on mindset, couple days networking with people etc. The exact breakdown varies due to many different factors such as personality type, environment, if you have partners, business model etc. Those hours add up to eventually you making that success. I think an analogy I can make is that it's like your building a brick 2 bedroom house with your hands. You put as many bricks in a day as you can. But each day you only put 1% of the total bricks on it. You could put more, maybe 3%, but you have your family to look after etc. Over the course of 100 days, you finally build it. Some examples of consistency leading to success: - A mere 200 calorie deficit a day is 21 lbs a year. You won't notice the progress that much over a month, but over a year, you will 100% see the difference from pictures. - Building a business by putting in 3 hours a day. Spend a day doing taxes, spend a few days learning & doing marketing, spend a day setting up the legal part etc. Day to day, it might not seem like much progress, but as long as you're doing something everyday, eventually you'll hit your goal. Efficiency can speed up this process by a lot - Talking to women by approaching 3x a day over the course of 1 year is 1000 women. That's a shitload of experience. I think I remember reading somewhere that 2/10 women will be interested in you. Of course there's loads of factors. I haven't much experience in this area though. - 30 minutes of contemplation a day for years is a butt-load of experience. That's 150 hours of contemplation over a year. - Saving $500 / mon in your paycheck over 5 years is $30,000. Saving $2,000/month is $120,000 A great tool to get this into action is turning the endeavor into a daily habit. That way, it will become a habit that is part of your personality and will get compounded over time. Every month or so, you build another habit, and another habit and over time you have many great habits that are slowly compounding your massive success over time Building habits though... That's a topic in itself. One that is challenging, and one that I am learning myself how to implement.

Sometimes I doubt it, but then I reflect realize that there are many areas where my life has improved. So yes.
