Eben Pagan

[SoothedByRain]

I highly recommend Eben Pagan and his courses. He was clearly a huge inspiration for Leo and most likely a foundational part of his actualization. 

Perhaps Actualized.org wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Eben? Only Leo knows that.

Thoroughly integrated Spiral Dynamics Stage Yellow

Courses I've personally used:

• Wake Up Productive: 3.0
• Money Psychology 
• Seeds of Your Success

Those three are Gold for noobies like myself.

What results did you get from those courses?

[SoothedByRain]

@herghly A much deeper understanding of humanity, psychology, finance, strategic planning and scheduling. General observation of mental health, proficient systems modelling, self actualization and stage yellow mindset. 

In Wake Up, Eben states that "awareness is our most valuable asset" The whole course is about designing a life that frees up our awareness so we can get to work on what matters.
