my mom kinda of feels unwise 

she is going wrong in places 

i notice her negative influence on me 

---

what does she mean when she says?...

you HAVE to work. you HAVE to be financially independent. it is NOT OKAY to sit around and do nothing. you MUST work. FORGET the games and WORK.  

in word form it looks like a tiger mom trying to discipline her kid into shape 

some Toxic Blue Shit ? Red? 

I don't like it. 

---

i also notice myself putting up with less bullshit. i can see through the manipulation of others. unfortunately people are not all wise. but if i were to say i myself am wise. that would be not fair. 

---

traumas here. pain. and suffering. lots of growth and healing to be had. to be continued 

love & light

psychology has its LIMITS 

you CANNOT be happy in a room with nothing? what a weird notion

you NEED sustenance. you NEED food. you NEED many things. just using purely psychology to make you feel better is a losing situation. you need food, water, shelter, relationships, work, growth, creativity etc. peace comes from fulfillment of our NEEDs 

Coming full circle on this idea.

leo made an insight to focus on the solution when you are having trouble 

i dig it. i also like how he said we are not a statistic. i think being a statistic is a weird philosophy. because we are creators of our world. we can choose to be fit. we can choose to be wealthy. we can choose to not be lonely. we can choose awareness over poor mental health. we can choose to get an abundance of women. and these are all things that our current person is not an expert at!!! 

BUT WE CAN CONTROL IT ALL WITH THE UTILIZATION OF OUR INNATE HUMAN AGENCY    

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Victim Mentality. Oh you motherfucker. You got me by the balls for so many years. No more man. No more. You deserve the world 

 

Dear Lord(or x), grant me the strength to reprogram my mind into a positive one. Thank you

When people say they're being too nice = what they are saying is they are being nice by lacking boundaries and are people pleasing...

A good question to ask: 

What is holding you back from getting X?

and then gently explore <3

[Jacob Morres]

Do NOT ask Leo for answers. Get them yourself from other sources. 1 dimensional responses will come from Leo. 

I dont know what I mean by that 

Leo doesn't know everything but he knows a lot. Some things I disagree with him. Positive is Leo acknowledges much of this

Being great is less about YOU but about the actions you take

Ex: when playing video games, if you want to be a top player, its about just doing things a top player would do. Surprisingly, most people don't do them, even though its right there in their face. The top level strategies are right there. Beneath their nose or around the corner 

You already are a top player, just your actions must be aligned with that

Life is a Practice 
Meaning you can't do it once and expect results

Be prepared to do it every-time the issue comes up

Ex:
mindfulness when feeling negative
being mature when the other is immature 
being mindful when you are triggered 
self-compassion when hurting 

I think though as time goes on, you get much better at doing it. "Better" means more adept with tons of distinctions 

It does begin with an intention, followed by a daily practice

A feature of life is counter-intuitive. There are other descriptions of life, like life is a maze

I may have been putting up with relationships that have been very unhealthy for me... 

There seems to be a slight trend heh

the scientific method is simply: hypothesis, test, observe test results

Hopefully my insights don't annoy anyone. I feel like im spamming them 

 

Great.

What the fuck is the balance between non duality and law of attraction?!

Well according to Leo it's better to do regular personal development, build a healthy ego and transcend it. Its very hard to transcend an unhealthy ego 

I wonder if thats a rationalization or a deep insight

Insights of the day: 

Shine the light of awareness onto others. 

What are they doing? Bring awareness of the situation. What the fuck are they doing? Helps with observing manipulation 

Take Action: (Incomplete insight. Needs deeper understanding)  

Life is not lived in your mind. Action is required. Meditation alone is SHIT. You need to fulfill your needs to be happy. Such as, financial, relationship, trauma oriented, purpose/meaning, happiness, creative, setting boundaries, 

Meditation is HELPFUL though. It helps to stay stoic, grounded, conscious, calm. but meditation alone is not enough. 

Avoiding problems and just meditating is not enough. Certain problems necessitate that the person takes care of it.

Life and character is built when the going gets tough. When the going gets tough, that is important to remember wisdom, because that is the hardest time.

It is an opportunity for growth, wisdom, learning, and change

Good things come from these moments, channel it properly, love 

[Jacob Morres]

another balance. 

Balance between optimal practice versus doesn't matter which practice it is, all are viable

Some practices are better than others, but simultaneously, it doesn't matter which practice because all practices have value  

Paradox/balance is a nice and useful tool

Leo once mentioned the essence of creativity is to combine two different things to come up with something new

I want to find the exact quote.
