I am officially abandoning temporary pleasure for long term advantages

Never listen to music again until I need to

Only meditate before eating never meditate after eating window opened always!

I think all the unhealthy food places are a waste of building materials and the
builders time should have been used to build new sustainable houses that could
have been homes for as many poor starving families as possible because almost
every starving poor human is dying of preventable deaths the worst deaths of all!

Did you know the american government FBI oil Corporations and Companies who
claim we “need foreign oil” they’re lying they’re ripping us off at the EXPENCE of
our families lives as well as our own!

WE NEVER NEEDED OIL OR FOSSIL FUELS DID YOU KNOW THE FIRST CAR WAS

ONLY DEPENDENT OM ELECTRICITY TO WORK

A MAN EVEN INVENTED AN ELECTRIC CAR WITHOUT NEEDING A REAL BATTERY!

BUT THE GREEDY GOVERNMENTS FBI ALL THE OIL COMPANIES CORPORATIONS!

KILLED THE MAN WHO INVENTED ELECTRIC CAR WITHOUT A BATTERY!

GENEPAX JAPANESE WATER CAR COMPANY

THEY BUILT WATER POWERED CARS CORRECTLY IN TWENTY FIRST CENTURY

BUT THEY WERE

FORCED AGAINST THEIR WILL TO SHUT DOWN

BECAUSE THE RICHEST FAMILIES ARE

SCARED OF LOSING THEIR PROFITS

THOSE HYPOCRITICAL UNDESERVING EVIL TRAITOROUS LYING CRIMINALS

GOVERNMENTS

OIL COMPANIES

OIL CORPORATIONS

FBI

ALL GOVERNMENTS OF THE WORLD

AND THE ONE PERCENT OF RICH PEOPLE

THEY ARE GETTING RICHER FROM THE CORONAVIRUS

YET THEY’RE NOT SPENDING ENOUGH TO SAVE

GOOD HUMAN BEINGS FROM DYING FROM THE VIRUS

QUEEN ELIZABETH THE SECOND BORN IN 1926

FUCK YOU AND HOPE YOU DIE!

Max Gron says:

It seems like the queen’s a nonagenarian, living in her 90s, she lived a long time. In my blue stage of spiral dynamics you’re right to vent your frustrations at oil companies, oil corporations and lack of batteryless electric cars but you know nothing about money and the 1% of rich people, hating money isn’t wisdom and it doesn’t solve problems, lots of money is necessary for churches, charities, and non-profits simply because they can’t maintain themselves without the 1%. The obscenely rich 1% donate a lot to charity, and as for not spending enough money to save, and I heard it somewhere, greedy corporate business executives only maintain themselves by making money, they die without it, your value system is probably yellow or purple and my promise to you is that you don’t make positive changes by grumbling about the system, you solve the problem by being in the oil corporations yourself thinking of a future of sustainable oil.

Are you surprised by this fact
It’s sincerely easier to learn the alphabet of a tonal language known as difficult!
If you only listen to one music piece when you’re reading your book

and don’t listen to any other music willingly for the rest of your days.

It’s a belief that it’s easier to learn languages by listening to too much music

because like in Sherlock Holmes book about him describing the brain as an attic!

Our brains memory can only store a limited amount of things like an attic in home

Sherlock Holmes said the SOLAR system is a waste of our memory

because it doesn’t affect his survival enough

to be needed as a tool to help

his survival

and solve the hardest mysteries possible!

Max Gron says:

Supposing a man listens to only one style of music, like gospel music, popular with Black Christians, I’m thinking that perhaps the many styles of music I listen to are fake, and perhaps should limit myself to only listening to blues, jazz, swing, classical music, waltz music and folk music & study music and whale music and that’s it, I don’t need so many styles. I can’t gain wisdom from listening to the music, but I can gain wisdom from listening to the types I select, food for thought.

the comfortable modern lifestyle is a government plan to weaken the work ethics
of the youngest generations now and to come better technology worse memories!

Max Gron says:

You’re quite the artist, perhaps turning towards uniqueness is a good thing. It’s a war of identities. I think I shall take your advice and be a happy man. I’m happy to be blue in spiral dynamics and follow rules and a code of honour and honouring kings.

Leo Gura says:

I can’t change my past but I’m sure all these rules should be taken seriously

1:BAN EVERY SINGLE UNHEALTHY PROCESSED DEEP FRIED SUGAR COATED ARTIFICIALLY SWEETENED GMO EXPIRED CHEAP QUALITY FAKE FOOD FOREVER!

BAN EVERY SINGLE UNHEALTHY FOOD PLACE IN EXISTENCE FROM THE PUBLIC!
UNHEALTHY RESTAURANTS FAST FOOD BARBERQUES CAKES BISCUITS EVERY
PROCESSED FOOD IN EXISTENCE BANNED FROM ALL REAL HUMANS TO EAT!

TO PROTECT OUR FUTURE GENERATIONS OF CHILDREN FROM REPEATING OUR
SAME MISTAKES INSTEAD OF MAKING NEW MISTAKES THAT HAVEN’T BEEN
MADE YET IN HUMAN HISTORY

Max Gron says:

It turns out you want no fun, well you advised to be funny, I think people should be able to eat anything they want. This is what I think, I think you with your poor country want to drag us back in Russia, you want your childhood of stuff you believe and you think everyone has to have no fun like you. Well I’m going to have fun and I don’t take wisdom from ignorant people making wars on others, I should’ve known better than to become a nihilist and disbelieve everything, and I should’ve known better than a thoughtless life and not meditating.

Leo Gura says:

ALL YOUR VIDEOS SHOULD ALL HAVE EXACT ENGLISH COMPLETED SUBTITLES
THAT CAN ALWAYS BE TRANSLATED INTO ALL OTHER LANGUAGES IN WORLD
FRENCH SPANISH RUSSIAN MANDARIN CANTONESE ITALIAN PUNJABI ARABIC
HINDI URDU TAGALOG THAI SOMALIA BENGALI GERMAN DUTCH JAPANESE
WELSH IRISH MONGOLIAN VIETNAMESE DEFINITELY ALL POPULAR LANGUAGES
MAYBE EVEN ENDANGERED OR DEAD LANGUAGES

don’t leave out subtitles for any video

you said the easy way leads to a hard life

well so does only using English without adding SUBTITLES to your videos

NEVER GIVE ALL ENGLISH SPEAKERS UNFAIR ADVANTAGES

IF THE HUMANS WHO WERE NEVER TAUGHT OR HAD TIME TO LEARN ENGLISH

LIKE MY MATERNAL GRANDMA

WANTED TO UNDERSTAND YOU AND IS PATIENT ENOUGH TO USE ANY

TRANSLATOR BUT YOUR VIDEOS HAD

NO SUBTITLES NOT EVEN ANY ENGLISH SUBTITLES

BASICALLY A SUBTITLES FREE VIDEO

SHE WILL FEEL LEFT OUT BECAUSE NOW SHE CAN’T TYPE ENGLISH WORDS

SHE NEVER HEARD SPOKEN TO HER OR READ TO HER INTO

LEO

HOW EXCLUSIVE OF YOU

AND YOU CLAIM YOU WANT TO HELP PEOPLE OF ALL RACES!

NOT JUST HER

BUT BASICALLY ALL THE HUMANS WHO CAN’T SPEAK OR WRITE ENGLISH

OR EVEN UNDERSTAND HOW TO LEARN ENGLISH

Max Gron says:

You might be wise being abnormal, but many an abnormal person’s a fool. I’d be a fool acting literally weird or acting rare, yes it’s foolishness, if you’re duped into a difference and get victimised you’re a fool.

Max Gron says:

Leo’s “philosophy” isn’t suited to modern life or modern conveniences, if it was 2,500 years ago it’s for ancient people, it’s not for contemporary life. I only believe in modern philosophy or contemporary philosophy (that which is from the 18th and 19th centuries, I learned it in my philosophy course), furthermore as with academia I accept Continental philosophy, directly and unmodified from Hegel’s book “The Phenomenology Of Mind”, which is more suited to modern living. I only have contemporary wisdom, not ancient, mediaeval or primitive or archaic wisdom! Good luck with ancient wisdom, going back to useless times that don’t work anymore!

wisdom says:

What is philosophy

Max Gron says:

Philosophy is this wisdom he teaches, with contemplation. Wisdom is itself me accepting myself the way I am, with a strict extreme puritanical gold.

someone says:

2 minutes in the video and I was like: man you have no idea what wisdom is, then boom 2:14 “You need to contemplate for yourself what wisdom is”

You will lose people with your bad comments about TRUMP. You are a well read person, and I love your videos, having spend many hours listening, but you contradict yourself a lot. I’d be happy to act in my Green spiro dynamics stage and help you realize your short sidedness on the things you misunderstand and accuse Trump of, and the misinformation you spout. Before you think I am arguing my perspective, my wife is a Dem and I can tell the difference between what is my view and bias views. Your bias conflicts other things you say. No problem if you realize what you are doing and understand that you need to involve in that area. We all need to in certain areas, Peace, bro.

Max Gron says:

My blue mentality means more religion and a few rules, but having evolved before in my religious stage it took a while to stop caring for the environment. Perhaps in my mid-20s I was an outcast and people thought I was weird, I was certainly at the blue stage. I say the world’s a better place if there was any peace, and more religion (not spirituality), and if people cared for kings, or perhaps one should be more at stage green like you and want equality, peace, love, I’m not doing drugs but Leo’s at the beige stage where he only posts videos with consistent beliefs for his survival, he hasn’t gone past the clinging to beliefs stage, nor should he, he’s a little blue in telling you to do what he says and laying down his rules, he’s more blue than me when all I want is enlightenment and not listening to harmful content.

Max Gron says:

Truth be told if enlightenment is all you want you’re disappointing Leo, Leo’s not just in it for the enlightenment, he’s teaching pragmatic things and theory, even truths, which you didn’t even begin to know yet. In discovering what’s true you’ve become a sorcerer and a Low Churchman, but perhaps it’s wise to change the system, say, into the yellow value system.
You’re not a very enlightened man at all, a real enlightenment experience is going Buddha and a change of perspective. But if you’re stubborn and only using your reason, thank goodness you haven’t on this website, you’ll never learn. The whole “point” is waking to reality, based on immaterial things. It’s up to you to discover what’s true, yes, you heard me right.

Max Gron says:

Religiosity is the original wisdom from the start, whereas spiritual not religious, and alchemy, and doing literally everything the Bible or Quran or Torah says, and killing a man because you disagree with his evilness and sin (because it says so in the Bible), or doing other silly traditions is foolishness, and vegetarianism without the eating of dead animals is foolishness, and like it or not, liquitarianism is foolishness, repressing your freedom is foolishness, and having no self-control is foolishness, yet the fool can do any one of those things. Most people’s attempts at wisdom are silly, the fool thinks he’s wise, the fool doesn’t study a belief as a backup plan for living life, it’s true, he thinks the beliefs he’s already got, he’s got it all figured out and thinks he knows all about truth and reality. I tell you in all a fool’s glory a fool is happy compared to a wise man anxious about contentions.

Max Gron says:

Do you not see your folly in the types of things you don’t know, myself? I’m not foolish enough to avoid the advice of fools, it might be good advice from experience, it’s counter-intuitive. And I’m not such a fool as to believe you just because your idea, Leo, of wisdom is non-survival and selflessness, you said not to believe you, to try these things for myself, your advice is black and white, according to you it’s don’t be selfish because it’s the devil, and don’t have an ego because the ego thinks it’s all sorts of evil things. Ironically a fool just believes you and does what they’re told and doesn’t listen to your advice not to “take it as a belief”.

I believe that most of what Leo says is correct. That’s because I am of the same opinion. No one else has his personal opinions. he touches areas that are common to people as the get older. I love watching Leo “grow up”. He really tries hard. If we all tried as hard, we would be much happier in general. We all seek a level of happiness in our lives that make it worth living. Leo’s ideas are for us to try on and investigate as he says. If he and I ever teamed up in business we would be beyond successful.

Max Raoy Gron says:

I don’t think I should even without choking accept disbelief of everything I say, even worse, criticising everything I say, as if I’m wrong, maybe it’s the case I’m not making myself clear, to hell with belief, to hell with accepting your anti-me advice, Leo’s right but I shouldn’t believe him. Why can’t you agree with me like you agree with all the others on this website? Why can’t people say “wow, you’re great! Give me a high five”? I promise you Iwill never go on this website again, I only use the internet of like-minded people, people who think like Max Gron, so fuck you.

Max Raoy Gron says:

This is what I think, I think I should give myself a chance to conform to the contradictory things the other members of this site are saying, and become like-minded and not double down on leaving this site, as long as some of the people on the site are positive, success-oriented and ambitious. I’m not that big of a fool to misunderstand that I’m wrong and double down on my wrong views. Also is such the case that a fool gets puffed up with notions of rightness about a thing and is stuck in their opinions, bigoted, adopts a religion and follows it like a normal person, even follows the diet, is highly orthodox, as for me I’m not orthodox in my religious convictions but I’m following a cult, that automatically means an unorthodox religion, a religion that contains quirks and idiosyncrasies and I think that’s OK, but try telling that to an orthodox Muslim who only wants Islam because it’s normal. The fool will also accept Leo as brilliant and genius and believe in him with no independent thinking of their own, without questioning the teachings, most people on this site love Leo and take him seriously, I doubt they simply believe in him because he said so. It doesn’t operate that way, in fact I challenge the members of this site to spot any lies in my comments, that’s right there is no proof, that’s because there is no lies, and incase you’re wondering I started reflections for myself, thinking my own way, and criticising what I should and shouldn’t do in a situation, of course it’s like that, that was my wisdom in the first place! Not this education that’s basically telling me to think the same way as myself, I don’t need the thinking done for me, I have a package deal of right and wrong (morals right now are getting commercial), and it’s about correct behaviour of what I should do and incorrect behaviour of what I shouldn’t do, not the other way around, give me a break! That is of course, give me a chance to think that the majority has not a single clue about me, they don’t know what I’m thinking, or that I changed my beliefs, they will ask me, but I’m more sure than I ever will be, I’m sticking to it, I’m not right now changing because I’ve already changed, case closed.

Max Gron says:

I know what to do next in the wisdom I live in and choose to always live in. I’m no longer changing or improving my life, I’m true to myself, what I wear, what I watch, the music I listen to, the games I play, what I read, what I write, what drugs I take, what tobacco I smoke, what alcohol I drink & how I drink it and when, what I believe and what I don’t believe, and my diet, it takes you out of the social matrix, is simple, not pretentious, as I live a simple not pretentious life, I’m no fool, I have a system not to be victimised, duped, or made to look ridiculous. :-

Max the shithead says:

Nobody cares what I think or write, but rattling my cage is bloody peachy, throwing tables over almost me getting killed, then it’s that lie of my life all over again, the lie that if I just go about my business a sourpuss comes over here with tea and cakes. It’s a bloody good idea, why not try inviting a bully to your house, say how nice he is to make him knock your back, annoying it is it will go peachy, let’s go in a dark alley, nobody’s going to mug you. If I was a fool I would be on the right track, getting sick all the time and laying in bed, it’s paradise!

Max the shithead says:

Of my stubbornness, I’m not so stubborn in this ridiculous school, my wisdom is the ABCs of what Leo said, along with solipsism thinking I may be a brain in a vat, along with morals from pessimism, God-belief and anti-Australianism, as well as the indistinct morality that harming others is imprudent with consequences like pain, nobody cares that I believe that, but putting together the philosophies for my morals in an acceptable way without external rules isn’t easy, it freaks people out, with solipsist morals people are looking at me funny. I’m not in need of being any different, it’s not rational to deviate from science and have no empirical evidence, everything I believe is evidence, I doubt everything else, I know everything exists, but it’s digital and material, and objective in a sensory way, it’s an analogue of the matrix, but when I’m dead the program is dead, there will be nothing left, that supercomputer only comes from my mind, people won’t carry on living after I’m dead, it’s over! It’s my pain, my humiliation, not these optimistic things like my pleasure, my happiness, solipsism is pessimistic, all this and more is how simple my wisdom is, I have a set of instructions for me to live that I created myself, I’m the god of my own universe. It’s science that’s advancing humanity, and science isn’t about the immaterial or paranormal, or eerie things, it’s about the truth.

Max the shithead says:

I don’t give a shit what I was thinking, brain in a vat? Who cares? I couldn’t care less about what made me delusional. You think life’s a dream, it’s not a dream, or is it?No one will ever know, I think perfectionism, even achieving being perfect, invites jealousy, and violent emotion, giving you an imperfect time. I should be an anti-perfectionist, letting the chips fall and appearing as is, if I see what happens I see how dangerous this is, it’s far more dangerous than you’d like to admit. I should just be a normal guy and have a lifestyle for once, keeping busy as I do, it should be a life of intense confusion instead of a quiet period on the beach, the opposite of hectic, I led a hectic lifestyle and like the rest of the people I should simply be ignorant and rushing on the bus from shop to shop buying groceries and clothes, and I shouldn’t be the type who eats at the bakery, or even orders Vietnamese rolls, or eats in restaurants, or buys quiche from pastry shops, I should be so introverted that I don’t shop to eat, but only shop to take stuff home and prepare it myself, that would be wise, it’s easy to forget. The fact that average people are average people and do average things is the fact that they could be seen at Coles buying coffee and that’s where the line’s drawn, it’s drawn on getting the essentials, like toilet paper, coffee, tobacco and frozen dinners, and until normal becomes something else it remains the fact that normal people just go grocery shopping, feed their pets, buy dry foods to eat from the pantry, and buy juice for drinking, that’s where the line’s drawn, consumerism and normalism, the fact that society is aligned with typical, regular, usual, common, observed activities and systematic, consistent, harmonious activity in orderly ways, in a set of methods, in a complicated manner, that society will have you belive, rightly so, that you should buy staple foods, that you need long-lasting foods to spend a week eating it, that you need juice, also there’s the fact that pet food is in much larger quantities than human food, humans don’t get to eat so much, that’s why the pets are fat and most people are thin, even though fat people get away with eating rice pudding or cakes because they’re hungry, it’s not being this perfect, or even ideal person I’m striving for, I’m through with excellence, what I want is a wise life and not achievements of ideals, I don’t want any more foolishness like seeing ancient wisdom as foolishness, I want all kinds of wisdom, and I want to take it on as prudence, discernment, and judiciousness, that’s what wisdom is, and it doesn’t have to lead to being an anti-normal wanker who very much is a fool because it’s his differentness that gets him in trouble, he’s a man who lacks prudence, wisdom should just be being average, being normal, and not caring about crazy things, like self-sacrifice, pain, torture, conflict, exercise by tightening your abs with a device you strap to your stomach, or throwing a football into a punch bowl, it should be concerned with a money situation, worry for the future, and wariness of danger.

Max Raoy Gron says:

As it took me years to figure this out, this isn’t ancient wisdom, this philosophy’s contemporary wisdom since there’s a bit of modernism in there, and mentions Plato, who’s an idealist. I don’t care what you think, this is the best wisdom there is, including the nonconformity in there, but I think one of the wisest internet psychologists is Jordan Peterson. He’s a bit bored with his beef and broccoli diet, drinking water. If this was in Australia you would be buying a truckload of beef, broccoli and mountain water and eating the beef plain at home, personally I’m on a liver-healthy diet of bright-coloured vegetables, lean meats, limiting sugary drinks, chips, cakes, and takeaways, and with wholegrain products and wild rice, quinoa, fatty fish, nuts, etc, etc. This diet’s what I should have to prevent diseases in older age, Leo mentioned foolish diets like lazy exercise machines and not controlling cravings, like cravings for food, I fixed my diet on this, but to be the unimproved man that I am is to continue being a Kierkegaardian without external influence, a sadsack like my cousin Andrew Hermitte, I’m not saying this is wise, but a mental rigidity as mentioned by Leo Gura.

Maxiwrong says:

Conventional wisdom and common wisdom are still wisdom, but unconventional people see conventional wisdom as foolishness, yeah? Nothing truly deviating from the norm, for me, is ever going to work, I think the normal people are wise and the quirky people are fools, all the wisdoms aren’t foolishness but unconventional wisdom is spooky, it’s the wisdom of rats, furthermore of my real nature nobody will ever know about it, nyeh heh heh heh! I’m not about to give it away on this thread. And don’t be foolish, no information is ever going to give it away, so don’t waste your time searching for my true nature. I’m not a quirky-inspired kind of guy, I’m a simple, ordinary person, just the norms and no more, fortunately I have this option, and no I’m not projecting my issues on to the teacher, and not looking through “deficiency” cognition, I’m just not using the “being” cognition from this conflictive struggle of what you call survival, and ego, yes, that’s how you Leo put it, if I want any kind of a wisdom I’ll either get it from Jordan Peterson, some of your other videos, or from Anthony Robbins, yes, this man isn’t just successful and owning a helicopter, coaching ways to achieve success, he’s also wise, he gives profound depths in the wisdom of his “success”, it’s possible to combine the two together.

Max Gron says:

Of experience I’m not some fool about my mistakes, I prevent bad experiences by taking advice from someone larger than myself, it’s about smoking a pipe and I have no more excuses, not to smoke indoors, that’s a good thing too, I don’t need someone telling me I’m wrong, there’s nothing I can do, it’s freedom I like, when I can go “ahhh, that’s better”, but life isn’t like that, at least I have the discipline to engage in reflection, experiences only leads for a little while to foolishness until you learn wisdom the hard way, I don’t give a damn, I would prefer a simple set of principles to be wise instantly, without starting off as a fool. I wanna be one of them, the people who don’t act as fools to become wise, do you realise the foolishness most people do to become wise? I’m not taking wisdom from someone who learned from being a fool, what if it’s false wisdom? Nobody gives a damn, it’s simple, just a set of rules to prevent folly, it’s not that difficult to be wise, since most people don’t learn from being a fool that’s how a fool is a fool in the first place. I’m no fool, I look up to the experts to become wise, not some ex-fool and yes there are wiser people than Leo Gura, I’m not tied into the BS, the fool gets duped into the BS and thinks it’s a good way to go around life, with your evil acts people think you’re lying. My principles are not smoking inside in shared accomodation or in another’s house without permission, unless it’s in the toilet, not getting caught with unwanted alcohol, never keeping a wineglass since they smash every one, keeping my phone close, if I can, always having a shower, only suiting myself. I’m going by these simple guidelines and not learning from someone who’s learned from being a fool.
