Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-Thread

[Leo Gura]

This is a catch-all thread for any comments or discussions you guys wanna have about any entries from Leo's Blog.

[Staples]

Just here to say I appreciate everything you share. 

I started buying better cinnamon alternatives, and more cautious when buying other food products. Thanks for the tip.

@Staples Good to know. It's hard for me to tell whether people find the blog useful or even know it exists.

Those tips about reading books were good tips. I never really thought about doing that before. I read a lot of articles, magazines, newsletters etc., I'm interested in; and even though they're not books, I can still apply some of your tips to those.

The book I'm currently reading, I don't think it's necessary as it's a  book on Spirituality and things are pretty straightforward and looking up stuff might only be a distraction and maybe contradictions as it applies to the person reading it; but in the future, I definitely will start to pause and do some research and take mental pictures even though that already automatically takes place while reading. 

That Sahari is definitely beautiful. Very serene. Nice to watch when you just want to admire earth's beauty with no storylines attached.

Well, now you'll know as people make comments.

I know it exists but I barely read it. I think I must have read just 1. It's exhausting reading the forum already. I'll visit it sometimes. Also I have to leave the forum to read it. The forum is too yummy hehe. 

I'm more curious about the course. Haha I'm like a kid. I like interactive reading. If you know what I mean.

Doesn't software have insights on statistics? Like visits, clicks, engagement, etc. 

For me it's very useful and interesting, it's been like that for years. I have a habit of checking it a couple of times a week and most of the time find the content really interesting.

Keep it going.

It has been very helpful to me. I learn more from your blog posts than from the forum, to be honest.

You share some great YouTube channels that I wouldn't have found.

I find your analysis of different stuff very insightful.

Nah! Juicy insights from people. People say the most unique perspectives here and I love conversing. Blog doesn't have a conversation option. A live conversation makes my brain think. Guess I'm still in kid mode

Maybe in the backend I could find some, but I don't dig that far and it wouldn't tell me more than view count.

I love the blog. When I'm burnt out from the forum it's the only thing I check.

I read that shit. 

When I discovered it, I spent the whole night scrolling and reading through dozens of pages.

I was like wtf is this, it jumps from spirituality to science, to naked women, to memes, to movies, to video games..

I never knew what the next entry would be, it was like a mild psychedelic, lol. 

Love it.

Yea I like that kind of stuff. Totally random. The mind is free in that sort of space.

I understand. I guess it's like how one learns like kinesthetic, visual and auditory. Depending on personality type or how the brain works. Not sure what determines that. I'm more of a reading and listening.

I wonder why you don't have a comment page for each post. Like a sliding comment bar. Also a rating system of likes/Dislikes ratio for each post. So you'll know which post is most popular and you can highlight most popular posts. Just a suggestion.

Leo, you need to have a live button where people can chat like on Skype.

[Thought Art]

I look at the blog.. I also suspect I’m in your top 1% of viewers though. 

[Davino]

@RightHand hahahah I agree. I sometimes dig into old blog posts to see how Leo's mind has evolved. I've found many old gems that surprised me to the core.

Pro tip: if the blog post is all in capital letters you know you are in for a good ride

The reason why is on the blog in the introduction.
