Leo and his family...

1 post in this topic

I was wondering and it seems like a timely topic because I made a post about a vacation with my family and someone else is making a post about an upcoming vacation with their family. I want to know if most people who changed the world worked on self-actualization etc. had rifts with in their families. All I know about @Leo Gura's family are the things he's shared with us in previous episodes. His dad was looking for get rich quick schemes so from time to time they had money problems and that's where his hoarding money psychology problem came from. Then what I know about his mom is that he once tried to convince her to take psychedelics and she wouldn't because she thought it was nonsense and that she had a knack and talent for making art but, she didn't follow through with it as a life purpose. Then what I know about his brother is that he chose to get the video game at Toys R Us and that's when Leo saw it and was inspired to become a game developer.

When I was younger (since I grew up with Disneyland and Hollywood I lived in Los Angeles so those things were very prominent) the movies brainwashed me into thinking that everything works out in the end. So somehow I always thought that one day people especially my family would get me and understand me in the end and I'd be accepted and honored for who I am and magically have this not obnoxious happy relationship with my family and I'd enjoy being around them in a genuine way. THAT DIDN'T COME TRUE. In fact as time went by in some cases it just got worse and worse and the rift between me and them just kept growing wider and wider. When I was past the age of 21 I saw less and less of them and things were not as obnoxious because they had less power over me and treated me more of an adult so they couldn't scold me for not being the first person to say hi to them anymore and yell at me when I was just daydreaming instead of starting a conversation with them. Not to mention there was already a war going on between my mother and father and the two sides of the family were constantly bad mouthing each other. 

Other than that I noticed I'm just different with my interests in general. They like gossiping about others, stick to their culture, are very stage orange in a materialistic sort of way, they like rowdiness and arguing with each other, and they seemed to have no interest in finding the Truth with a capital T. That makes me wonder that for Leo or for any of you other people on this forum if you feel the same way too? Like when you stumbled upon actualized.org and you found these videos about enlightenment and self-actualization were you excited to share it with your sister, brother, mom, dad, aunt, uncle etc. Did you show them and they didn't care, did you just forget about showing them any of it because you know that it would go way over their head, or did you show them and they actually did care and join you on a journey of self actualization (in that case I think you hit the jackpot)? That leaves me with Leo I'm wondering what kind of relationship he had with his family and extended family before self actualization like if he was always the quiet one and the rest of the family wanted to talk about petty things while he was just always curios as to why they would talk about those things (like I was). Also now that he has actualized.org and so many followers if his family is also following him and interested in what he is doing or is it that no matter what your career or business you are in or how much money you have you will always keep that position in your family no matter what. Like if you were always the scapegoat for your family and next thing you know you become a multi-millionare you will still be the scapegoat in your family. In another scenario if you were always the shy one in your family but, you somehow became a guru and influenced thousands of people when you come back to your family you are still that shy one. It's funny because I noticed in my family that I was always this non-threatening push over character in my family that would always accept my uncles abuse no matter what but, then when I pushed back against it my uncle didn't know what the hell to do and everyone in the family became uncomfortable and told me to calm down because it kind of pushed away from the dysfunctional dynamic of the family that they were used to. So anyway really curious to know all of this. 

This would be the best research for why skin color and race really doesn't matter and Eugenics is a load of bullshit because people in the same families can be so different and genes would have nothing to do with interests, personalities, IQs and Emotional Intelligence because people in the same family can be so different.
