Not able to distinguish harry potter magic with hard core spirituality

Reading too much fluff in self help books i.e reading every word by heart , whereas you can just stick to what's needed and read those parts then execute.

Being isolated like a hermit 

Not exploring various kinds of self-help (believing self help= stuff you find inamazon / bookstore self-help section,that's it )

How is arguing and debating a trap?

[Breakingthewall]

believe in something, for example, I am god. integrate that belief in such a way that you think that it is not a belief, but it is direct experience

arguing is the idea that someone is wrong

everyone is right according to their level of consciousness

i have no business or duty to step in and speak truth

everyone out there is perfect and exactly where they are supposed to be

i work on myself and i let others be

Worrying about traps others are making and not what you yourself are doing.

I've noticed this has become more of a pet peeve thread than anything else. 

"Oooh, ooh, I remembered a pet peeve, better go post it in that online forum for everyone to see.  Aaah, that's better."

I mean, get real.

Overworking is a big one. People don't understand how important work/life balance is.

Work to live.

I think high level, intellectual debates are enlightening.

Leo must have been referring to the more tedious, unnecessary, dead-end debates, which I agree are a waste of time.

• Getting demotivated, because you don't manage to live up to your potential
• Not taking action because of perfectionism, entitlement, overthinking, confusion

Connor shattered Leo’s trust big time 

Connor is more stable. But, he likely still lacks maturity, integrity and etc

Oh ok, I see. I read the “I do not” from Leo as “Well I’m not doing pretty well these days” responding the post he did that Connor seems to be doing pretty well these days.
 

P.S.: Sometimes I have to traduce some stuff to spanish so maybe the phrase has a extra meaning that I don’t know, thanks tho.??

Connor Murphy is not doing well at all, he returned back to his old way of making cringy and worthless content, He had so many phases of utter stupidity. He was like a man who was offered a boffuet of all the delecious foods he could ever imagine but he  says no to all of that and goes to eat some shitty food, now this is how Connor Murphy doing.

He didn't Shutter Leo's trust. I gess Leo expected things to come  down how they did. Connor is bipolar and psychdelics hurted him bad. I once did some acid and at the end of the trip it hit me hard. I immediatly recognized myself as being in the Connor Murphy state. You understand totally that you are God and you don't care about anything, You want to troll people and to make jokes about how enlightened you are and how silly reality is. This is how Connor Murphy was thinking.

I can't speak for Leo. But I saw how Connor treated the forum and how he treated Leo when Leo tried to ground over the phone. He dragged actualized.org through the dirt with his antics. 

Connor at one point, was making almost pretty decent posts on the forum. I think he really liked Leo's videos but... He does in like a fool. Fools rush in. I saw that he was a Zen Devil pretty early on.

He has the operating system of a clown and then starting trying to become spiritual, then abused psychedelics, (I think he misunderstood what they actually were doing to him). He is professional fitness guru and clown. 

We can't expect him to be a sage overnight. It was like adding jet fuel to an open flame.

@Thought Art He is bipolar for sure. I was thinking he was joking and fooling around at first but then I understood he is bipolar. Leo says he was taking DMT 24/7 at some point which would make even a totally sane person go insane, let alone a bipolar person.

[Thought Art]

@LSD-Rumi bipolar, maybe. It's likely more complex. Don't know.

This one is huge. Responsibility. Actually being in the driver's seat.
