I see so many deficiencies in myself that it's hard to say I am the best at anything.

I am different in certain ways, that's for sure.

You absolutely excel in your domain. And I don't see anyone excelling so well at it. When we talk on the forum about other thinkers and spiritual people, none of them come close to your understanding of Consciousness and Humanity. No one is capable of equivalent depth and accuracy.

To me, your domain of mastery is the most important one, but then again, humanity is not there yet to value it. If your domain was chess or a sport, it would be much easier for you and for everyone else to see how good you are.

Deficiencies don't reduce any of that. They give you humanity. They don't make you any less exceptional at what you're doing or in who you're being. I don't exactly know what deficiencies you're thinking about. I know about your health problems or the extreme shyness you overcame, but I honestly don't know if those are the kinds of things you have in mind, or if you think about stuff like not being good enough at ''understanding complex technical stuff like math, research papers, or computer code" (as if this even mattered).

I mean, who would expect or want you to master all those things? And who would expect or want you to be perfect? You're already far more advanced than most people, and that already creates a great gap. Many people don't understand you, they criticize you or try to diminish you because what you say flies far above their heads. But many others see you and your worth with more clarity.

You can make mistakes and be imperpect in some areas, that doesn't make a difference. You also are human. All the greatest men and women have made mistakes and were imperfect in some aspects.

I think you have some wrong perceptions about (your) deficiencies and what they mean. Whatever those are or whatever you're thinking about, they certainly don't outweigh your qualities and your giftedness (and the fact that you're the best in this).

I acknowledge a genetic aspect to my intelligence and psychedelic ability.

Yes… you have very, very unique genetics.

"Hey Leo, I'm back in your Dojo! I'd love to play chess with you - my username on Chess.com is @cooliemoody. Would it be okay if I make a post about playing chess with you and the other members? I'm looking forward to having some interesting chess matches with people here on Actualized.org. I'm trying to bring quality to everything I do in life, and I believe Actualized.org can help influence me to develop the quality I'm seeking for myself!"
