How do you remember all the thing?

[Harikrishnan]

My self actualization journey started is close to 4years now and i still feel like i dont remember basic or its like i dont know still anything to help people around me. I do meditation, visualization,contemplation etc.  Leo having a wide variety of topic how do you guys master and remember all this. Like do you still remember his self love exercise? Or how to have amazingsex or how to be attractive, how to be a man etc when a social situation comes or an event occur in life or do u rewatch again when needed?

It all boils down to being present, this is the number one most important thing.

Just keep this one thing in mind, and other things will naturally follow.

Ask yourself:

• What is required for this situation right now?
• What is the best thing to do right now?
• What am I missing right now?
• What do I want/need right now?
• Etc...

Just focus on what's in your hands, you don't need to remember how to contemplate when you're attracting someone, and vice-versa.

My idea of self-development is a little different. I do not watch all the videos that Leo or anyone else posts. I also do not read all the books someone else recommends. Or movies or music or diet and exercise routines. Why? Because it isn't personally catered to me and my situation. So there is this whole menu of topics for me to choose from, but what I pick depends on me. The key to remembering things is to immediately put into practice whatever you have learned- ACTIVELY. And if you try to consume everything that's thrown your way, you will end up tasting everything without savoring or remembering anything.

So the key is in making a pick, one at a time:

1. Find out areas of your life that you are struggling with. There may be many, and you can begin with the one that is most difficult. For example, if you have a difficult time forgiving someone, study forgiveness- read books on forgiveness, watch videos on it and give yourself a daily homework on it. And experiment with it. See what works, see what doesn't work. Take notes. 

2. Do not pick too many topics to study at once. Just focus on one and until you master that one, stay on it. You will eventually find that the topics you wish to study are all very interconnected and you will eventually end up learning a lot more by just digging deep into one. For example: While practicing forgiveness, you may find that you have trouble communicating it, so you may want to brush up on communication skills. And so on. One topic leads to another and another.

3. Give yourself tests - use the situation that you are in as a training ground. So if someone yells at you, instead of getting angry and fuming for the rest of the day, you tell yourself: "I forgive you" and get on with your day.

Sounds like a great idea to follow. Let me try
