1.  How to balance "following the flow" VS "planning every hour of your day" in living life ?
   I.e should you force yourself to meditate every day at 9 PM or should you follow your intuition at the time and maybe meditate 1hour one day and nothing the other (if that's how you feel like) ?
    
2.  How to distinguish "truthful intuition" VS "rationalizations/self-deceptive narratives" ?
   I.e feeling like not meditating today, is it truthful or a rationalization to be lazy / protect your current self-image to be changed by the meditation ?
    
3.  How to balance "outward information" VS "inside personal insight" in understanding life and making decisions  ?
   I.e being to much relying on Leo, people on the forum, books, youtube videos to get the big life transforming insights
   VS having the insights yourself.

[TheSomeBody]

how to use your work to better the world ( in form of a life purpose)

[yangmilun]

• How to face ego problems from parents, lover and friends?
• How to be rich? 

 

The examples that you stated here is nice to know for me:

• How do I self-actualize if I'm living in an under-developed 3rd world country?

[Kubia]

• Only humans can be enlightened/awaken? Why not a cat? Is necessary some intellect to appreciate it after all?
• If everything is One, then only thinking is getting in the way of perceiving One-ness? The natural way the brain works has made up duality?
• Can awakening occur from perceiving information but not processing them at all? Just raw data through sensory doors without meaning?
• If survival is so important, why non-dual perception can be so beneficial for all of us?

 

[mikelyons]

How can I know what the best balance is for me, between extreme radical spirituality in life, and living practically in the "the world"? (is this the objective of the life purpose course?)

- How can i overcome over thinking?

Can I ignore enlightenment entirely and just focus on success? What will be the result of that?

- How can i actually find what my true values are? How do i discover who i am and what i really want in life?

- Does fulfillment require hard work and discipline, or has it  nothing to do with that?

- How can i push forward despite confusion? 

 

- Can i communicate with god to receive help? Is prayer a real thing?
