does shadow work come before life purpose?

@Viking Okay to socialize with older folk. They might have valuable wisdom. Though, beware: if they have been living in delusion, then they have been living in delusion longer, so they will be more stubborn to defend it. And they've had more time to practice persuading and charismatizing their delusion, so they'll be more "convincing." Socializing with peers is important too, though. I highly recommend travel. Almost at any cost. Travel is extremely important for self-actualization, at least in the beginning stages. The more you travel, the more you will realize you don't need to travel; but you must first travel to learn this. Travel and life experience are perhaps more important than reflection, meditation, and contemplation at the early stages of self-development.

i never get what travel means. do i go different places and talk to people? i dont know how to start conversations with strangers, especially in other languages, it seems nice on paper but in practice i havent the faintest idea how to do that.

also life experience is so vague i have no idea what you mean.
