- Also some sort of privacy lock for journals would be a great feature. So you can block it from being publicly viewed, or invite/block specific people from reading/participating.

It is for this last reason that I did not begin my journal.

No, please don't. The internet is full of distracting entertainment. This is not the right place for bullshit.

I have some ideas for changes @Leo Gura, but this is just what I would do, take it for what you will:

- Change "Self-Actualization" to "Practical Self-Help", advertised so people can get more straight forward answers to (generally) straight forward questions. For people who aren't ready for esoteric, advanced, or spiritual concepts. If someone asks for basic advice like goal setting, the answers in the section shouldn't be anything like, "you need to wake up to God lul".

- Remove Psychedlics from "Meditation, Consciousness, Enlightenment, Spirituality", and give it it's entire own section.

- Add Culture to the name tag of "Society, Environment, Government, Politics"

- Move "High Consciousness Resources" to the "Self-Help Product & Book Reviews" section, or move them up. They should be combined.

- Add Finances to "Life Purpose, Career, Entrepreneurship", additionally give Life Purpose it's own section maybe. Since there is a course on it and it's a big part of the Actualized ethos.

- Also some sort of privacy lock for journals would be a great feature. So you can block it from being publicly viewed, or invite/block specific people from reading/participating.

- As well some sort of highlighted neon sticky post for the Serious Emotional Problems section about suicide and self-harm would be good. Just with some basic protocol about what the reader should do if feeling unstable, links to suicide hotlines, etc.

This. 

 

I especially like the psychedelics section. 

Also the life purpose focused section. 

 

I think - "High Consciousness Resources" and "Self-Help Product & Book Reviews" should be separated, but beside eachother.

I think a miscellaneous section would be a great addition. I find myself wanting to share perspectives on everyday things but usually don’t because it doesn’t fit the current categories.

Good idea ? 

[Leo Gura]

I am leaning towards creating a sub-forum for psychedelics and a sub-forum for off-topic cultural stuff.

Worse case scenario we just erase the off-topic sub-forum if it gets too distracting.

[Leo Gura]

Okay, I've made some updates to the sub-forums. Added 2 new sub-forums (Psychedelics & Pop-Culture). Renamed some of the old sub-forums to make their titles clearer and more accurate.

https://www.actualized.org/forum/forum/1-main-discussions/

Note: the Pop-Culture sub-forum may be removed in the future if it becomes too distracting or annoying.

@Leo Gura thanks Leo ❤?

[Grateful Dead]

Everything we wished for, thank you Leo ?

[Leo Gura]

Added a 3rd sub-forum called "Intellectual Stuff: Philosophy, Science, Technology"

It's an experimental sub-forum. We'll see if people make good use of it or not.

Yay. New sections. Exciting. 

Thunkoo

I think this has great potentiality to become a very great sub-forum
