Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-Thread

Tai Lopez is obvious cringe.

But also, that takedown by penguinz0 was poorly done. He critiqued him a 100 different ways without saying almost anything of real substance. It was mostly just ridicule.

There is a lot of wisdom in the latest quote about not having strong opinions about stuff. However, it is pretty difficult to disregard current events.

Some even change my state of consciousness for a moment.

I found approximately one in five of the quotes to be relatable and profound.

@Leo Gura Yes, I barely spend time on this forum looking through it. I stumbled upon your blog randomly a year ago and I have it bookmarked. I check it out almost every day to see what you have posted.

The videos are great and give a lot of insight but my favorite are your quotes because they put me in a contemplative disposition. It's not like a 3 hours video so I have to flesh it out myself. I wish you would do quotes much more frequently.

Same. I've been tuning in to this kind of content for several years so much is review and reminder but still effective and appreciated. However, Leo totally overplayed and devalued the black and white actualized.org text. It should only be used to highlight the most profound stuff. But I don't hold this opinion too strongly 🙂 😉

Yes, I think they are the most concise pieces of work you do. You do casual chatting with nuggets of gold and then marathon long videos, so I think Actualized quotes have an interesting niche to be explored.

I wanted to express a feeling I've been having lately Leo. In a way Actualized.org is losing its edge.

Consider this an intervention: I do feel like you're getting stagnated and honestly this project you're running has so much potential that is still untapped. I know you must be struggling personally and that many things happen behind closed doors, but you don't communicate that to us, like the one week webpage breakdown and the one year video gap without explanations. There are so many avenues to take Actualized.org moving forward, much more than videos, if we get lucky to even have them. What about the course? What about the book? What about the interviews? What about the tour? What is the vision? Please tell us...

Moreover, I feel like the entity of Actualized.org is losing its Spirit. More than 2 years ago since the last Awakening communication. How on earth is that possible? Moreover, the ridiculous quality standards you set for yourself and the videos are SEVERELY limiting All that could be. Go to your OneNote right now and tell me how many fucking amazing videos you could shoot tomorrow? Contemplate that. When was the last time you talked with us casually in a videoblog like we were friends having a conversation in the couch. Or making a youtube live or having us all in a conversation or something creative, unique, bold?

In how many ways the Forum could become better both in content and context (UI, functionalities, etc.). I don't even recognise you in that decade old picture, bro wake up. Don't be a‎ fa*****. Approach!

Maybe it's even time for you to move on, maybe all this is limiting You. How many good years do you have left? Honestly I don't even know, do you? 

Well, I felt it was important to share this feedback with you, Leo Gura. Take care.

Lots of Love 

Davino

I have only trained against bots. I don't have any rating.

There never was.

Because it would get spammed with nonsense.

Because I do not want to play the game of being that guy -- the social media influencer careerist. I deliberately do not try to build a popular well-oiled self-help guru brand, which becomes an end in itself.

I go out of my way not to do business.

You want me to be a strong classical leader, and I appreciate that, but I am more of an anti-leader.

And what's wrong with being that guy? What would happen? I mean your work would actually reach out to a larger audience. 

Also what's your end goal with this work?

It's not something I care about.

The reason my work is different is because my motives and values are different.

The things most humans care about I do not.

It was funny as hell though. Charlie is a fucking genius when he makes fun of someone.
