If you had to start from rock bottom, how would you get backnup?

[KoryKat]

like would you start with Leos starter guide on here, or somebody else, maybe certain books or videos in particular?

 

Maybe focusing on certain models or principles maybe?

 

How about financial success? Would u go back to school, or jump into what ur doing now straight away, or work your way up through random skills you can leverage?

 

what about habits, would you start with like meditation or journaling or something? 

 

Would u get into therapy or a coaching program, a particular program maybe? 

 

Asking for a friend (jk , me);

 

Much love

Maslow's hierarchy = I think a wise way to move about it. 

Get your physiological needs met: which implies some sort of income (whether governmental assistance or getting a job).

Then social needs: social safety, belonging (which may take more psychological and interpersonal work/development/healing)

Once established and have gained some sort of stability physically, emotionally, relationally, and have stayed there a while to be masterful at it and things aren't blowing up every several months, then developing the self-esteem needs, purpose, spiritual stuff, passion, and all of that type of stuff.  

Obviously not a strict hierarchy as life is chaotic and things can be done, and depending on the circumstances, should be done as needed: like even though you may not have your physiological needs met yet, say you're living on the street, you could probably benefit a lot from being able to work on self-esteem.  This self-esteem work could even help you get a job and relationships which, according to Maslow's model, are lower on the hierarchy than self-esteem needs.  Yet, even so, it could still help. 

Leads me to want to say that all things are highly contextual and moment-to-moment, though on the other hand, sometimes using larger heuristics can be wise and work well too (like Maslow's model).
