Let's start a list of places to volunteer, intern, live, and learn. I am biased to Latin and Southern America, where I have researched I'll go: Ecovillage.org is a wonderful resource. Use the map function and explore. Most of these places I will list were found on here. Raw Vegan places Fruit Haven community in Ecuador, spiritual, Raw Healing Mastery youtube channel. Volunteer for -nearly- free! Terrafrutis Sister community to Fruit Haven, similar Rawtreat Family homestead in costa rica. More: Dancing Rabbit: one of many cool places in the US Apricot Lane farms: My Biggest Little Farm Movie is from here, California, permaculture farm, have to be 21 years old Costa Rica has Yoga Farm, which is open from January to July, I believe, beautiful location. Bonafide has internships and you can volunteer. Rancho Mastatal has 2 month interships and 1 year apprenticeships. Very cool place. Pacha Mama is a spiritual workshop community which also does a bit of permaculture, volunteering available, very cool looking place. nature, people. Wilderland is in New Zealand. Dope place to learn Source Farm is decent, if you happen to be in Jamaica Spear Grass is cool, a family place in Australia. Zutut Ha looks cool, Mexico. Lots of cool places in Mexico but I hear it's dangerous. Is this true? Vila das Borboletas is an up and coming place in Brazil. They speak Portugese mainly, but English and Spanish too. I talked to the guy who runs it, very nice man. Panzenu is a cool looking place in Columbia, I talked to they dude, very nice as well. Permatree is a hardcore farm in Ecuador. (lots of work) This thread is also designed to help answer my dilemma seen here.

Dr bronners uses glycerin which coats your teeth and doesnt allow the proper flow of dental lymph fluid, as well as holding in bacteria. Other than that it's good Read holistic dental care by natalie artemis. Not green bullshit, since i started practicing her methods the dentists tell me i have almost no plaque and all my 75% of my tooth sensitivity is gone. Use baking soda and salt as toothpaste Use plant oils that are crafted intentionally or oral use to influence the mircobiome populations.

Just sheer volume and constantly approaching will get you to stop caring. you can go from terrified to feeling invincible even as a begginer if you can actually just constantly stay approaching people, literally everyone you see. Once you stop caring how people react you will get better reactions. and then thatll pump your state further. getting rejected a bunch is thrilling to your nervous system. You need to gain energy from it because you are breaking down your ego and getting into a flow. In practice you won't let yourself do this right away but as soon as you can actually do it and stop hesitating you will have amazing nights.

If anyone into actualized.org stuff is going to any Owen freetours please message me.

I think it's a great book! Lots of fluff but its pretty interesting, and helps paint a picture. I will put my notes in here that summarize the core concepts. It's basically manifestation, psycho-cybernetics, think and grow rich, type stuff but I would prefer it to any of those <- perspectives. Reality transurfing core concepts: Intro, what is transurfing? some people weakly go with the flow of life, some fight it, some transurf live in the present. everything is here and now already. achieving a goal is not a problem, where you need to focus on getting to a certain place. It is a game you are choosing to participate in, and, like climbing a mountain, the whole point is to enjoy the journey, and be present. Alternatives Space Explain the alternatives space Thought energy is like a wave in the ocean, bringing a part of the whole into consciousness and actuality. The alternatives space is all there, but thought energy determines what is manifest. Any branch of knowledge or model of the world is simply a perspective of one manifestation of reality, one form that reality takes when we look at it a certain way. Every organism contributes to material realization of the alternatives space, -Deconstruct the idea of time and the unfolding of a developing material world. Instead, there is a set of infinite possibilities within consciousness and one particular materialization. Like a person wandering in a forest in the dark with a torch, their perceptions are not developing. The forest is all there, just not lit up. -Energy transforms the possible alternatives into physical reality. -thoughts and actions create your reality in the same way. Both are energies that influence which sector of the alternatives space manifests Pendulums A pendulum is a collective energetic thought pattern created by a group of people thinking in the same way, that has an energy of its own. Pendulums convinces you that its goals are actually your goals, directing your creative energy and concern towards its goals. To be free from pendulums you must get in touch with your heart and find what goals are really yours To be free from pendulums we need to recognize them, and lower the importance and energy we give to them To be free from pendulums, make sure you are approaching your goals without urgency, with an intention but not a need and desire. If you feel like the goal must be achieved urgently, or you have an obligation or burden to do it, it may not be yours. Once you are free from pendulums, you are open to encountering a wave of good fortune. This is a path through the alternatives space where you stop blocking yourself from the universe taking care of you. -if everyone were to claim what is rightfully theirs, and set intention towards their true goals without expanding their energy by creating obstacles in their their imagination that they then fight against, Pendulum would cease to influence us. despite the fact that it is difficult to imagine the world without pendulum the false stereotypes and beliefs, they create are not as hard and fast as the laws of motion, for example Fear of money, budgeting, fear of income decreasing, or that there won’t be enough will manifest itself. Pendulums convince you that money is the source of joy, but the true source is nature and relationships. Pendulums convince you that you need money to achieve your goals, causing you to lose sight of your purpose. Focus on the actual goal (e.g., travel and community); money will come as an accompanying attribute. Balance and Importance & Intention with and Without Desire The creation of material reality follows balance. When we attribute too much importance to something, we create an energetic imbalance. Feeling like you must have something, being anxious about if it will happen, desire, will create excess potential that prevents its realization. Judgement and discontent will turn balanced forces against you, reinforcing the things that you resist in reality. Appreciation can come from unconditional love, instead of attachment, clinging, and desire, which will repell the things you want. As an example, dependent relationships will create excess potential Intention can be realized when it is free from desire. At first this sounded almost dull and passionless to me, but really having a pure intention without desire and attachment is the most powerful creative force, and is more passionate and alive than a conditional need for something. It is an intention to create something out of unconditional love. This is the powerful creative force that allows us to transurf. This is simply not placing our happiness behind some external thing Practice accepting each situation as it unfolds as it is, and not attributing certain outcomes as good and desired, and others as bad. Let go and trust in the universe and the process, and do not constantly subject yourself to the stress of labeling things like this. Focus on the process, enjoy the present, realizing that no specific outcome will be the source of happiness for you. When we realize that happiness is not on the other side of a certain thing, we can approach it with creative loving intention. Do not try to overcome obstacles, but reduce their importance. Do not obsess over how things can go right or wrong, but focus on your intention and action to take the next step, and be with where you are now. Money will come of its own accord on your path towards your goal, greet it with love and part it without regret. Treat it with respect, but do not assign excess importance to either preserving, rationing or acquiring it. The possibility of failure and alternatives can help you not place all your eggs in the basket of the goal. Accepting that it may not happen helps lower importance -Your certainty with which you set your intention to have something determines whether you will get it or not. Desire includes the potential of non-fulfillment and thus worry, anxiety, frantic actions, etc. you must believe that it is already awaiting your claim. So you must at the same time have certainty but without attachment to it, not a need. You do not hold the possibility of not getting it out of love, not out of fear. Without importance, act without demanding, care without worry. It is crucial (p 234) to realize that happiness is never on the other side of some external thing. Alignment with your life path can bring happiness. When we think that it is behind something, this leads to us giving it importance. -use quote for video, on middle of page 164 , reread 164-165 ^ notes on these pages and below -just like getting the newspaper, there is intention without desire, because it is an intent followed by calm action, and even if the newspaper isnt gotten, it isnt a big deal. No belief or desire, just doing, thus being free of excess potential. Focus on the process, not the goal, eliminates excess potential. imagine you became aware that you are the Director of your fate and can buy whichever newspaper you want, you are aware of this, but it does not fill you with arrogance and confidence that you are the Director of your life. While trans surfing can give you the ability to direct your own life, do not let this lead to attachment, or you will create access potential. If you went to get a newspaper, and a stand was closed, you would simply go to another stand. You must be a Director without attachment and control. -quote first paragraph on 165 -do not out burn bridges, a backup plan allows you to come from a higher vibration and not need something to work out. noone is immune to misfortune, do not slam doors behind u If you feel a sense that you must make a huge effort to achieve the goal ASAP, or you doubt your abilities, you have too much importance. (pg 244-245) Desire includes the potential of non-fulfillment and thus worry, anxiety, frantic actions, etc. Do not burn bridges; a backup plan allows you to come from a higher vibration and not need something to work out. No one is immune to misfortune; do not slam doors behind you. Problems are when someone resists the current. Resisting them and being attached to your specific plan will make them into problems. When holding your desired slide, if you feel a sense that you must make a huge effort to achieve the goal ASAP, or you doubt your abilities, you have too much importance. Desire focuses on the goal; intention focuses on the process. Transurfing visualization focuses on what moves you toward the goal, with the goal as the background of the visualization. (pg 184) If you feel a burden, urgency, or obligation when imagining achieving your goal, the heart is saying no to this goal. Live in the present. Achieving a goal is not a problem but a game—like climbing a mountain, the goal is to enjoy the journey and be present. The heart is selfish. Your deepest, heart-aligned goals are not primarily about helping others. Inner and Outer Intention To understand intention, first we must realize that in lucid dreaming, our intention instantly manifests. In physical reality, most people are simply not tapped into that power, and it takes more time. Inner intention is the concentration of attention on the process of moving towards a goal. It resolves to act Outer intention is the alignment of the heart and mind with consciousness itself, and allows the goal to realize itself. It resolves to have. Inner attention achieve by force striving to resist the alternatives flow and impact reality, outer attention simply chooses and allows the autonomous realization of a goal. Awareness allows you to wake up from the game you are playing Intention is what you use to go get your mail. There is no desire, just intention leading to immediate action. We place some things outside of our comfort zone and desire them, not taking the action to create them. -using outer intention is subtle, I need to escape the pendulum of thinking that I need to find a way to make a living or else my life will be miserable. I think visualization is free of the excess potential because it is not coming from a place of need and desire, but simply thinking about something nice and having gratitude for those things already existing. -184, desire focuses on the goal, intention focuses on the process. transurfing visualization focuses on what moves you towards the goal. the goal os the background of the visualization Importance is the main obstacle preventing you from realizing your goals. Your certainty with which you set your intention to have something determines whether you will get it or not. Visualize the original goal rather than focusing on money or other conditions first. Outer intention is subtle and escapes the pendulum of “I need to make a living or else my life will be miserable.” Using outer intention allows visualization to be free of excess potential—thinking about something nice with gratitude as if it already exists. The Heart and the mind The heart does not speak or think. It feels and knows. So any affirmation/visualization must be based in feeling. If you have to talk yourself into something, it means the heart is saying no, Signs and omens exist so long as we attribute meaning to them, they are real. The feelings they invoke allow our heart to communicate to our mind if something is right or not. Imagine if you did not achieve a certain goal, if you feel any sense of relief, your heart does not want it. The heart will feel a deep inner discomfort if something is not right The heart speaks the langunage of your deepest desires. If you convince yourself you need a bridge, like money, to get to what your heart wants, your visualization and creative drive will lose all power, as the heart only feels and knows, and will not be aligned with your mind. The heart is the medium of new information and unrealized sectors of the alternatives space to the mind. This is the source of discoveries The heart and mind are easily united against a negative expectation, but the mind often abandons the heart towards a positive goal. The heart can only feel outer intention, but the mind can only feel will. The mind establishes that it is searching for what will bring it joy, and the heart feels into it. Life experience and exploring your interests will help the heart have more to work with. -we typically carry very clear images of what we dont want in life, and this is something the heart and mind agree on, which leads us to that reality. in contrast, we usually don’t have a very clear picture of what we actually really want, and so the mind cannot get on the same wavelength and clarity as the heart, and that reality is not created -the heart is actually kind of selfish. your deepest heart aligned goals are not primarily about helping others. Once you have created the reality you desire you will have a full cup, and actually be able to help others. but for now, you need to focus on what YOUR heart wants Doors and Goals A foreign goal - is punishing, coerced, an obligation -in the guise of fashion and prestige -unattainable in an attractive way -forces you to prove yourself to yourself and others -imposed by others -improves someone else’s wellbeing -uneasy feeling in the heart Do not even consider the means until you have determined if a goal is yours with certainty It should fulfill all other desires along the way to your goal. Your heart will be drawn to it As soon as you decide for or against a goal, pay attention to how your inner intuition responds, your inner voice. Slides can help eliminate inhibitions, but inner discomfort from the heart not aligning will remain. The mind cannot search for your goal A door is a path to your goal. If you do not see the door, focus on the goal and the transfer chain will begin to appear. You do not need to have a concrete plan, just the next step. As you move through a door, there is no need to burn bridges or slam doors behind you. Stay open and do not put all your eggs in one basket. The only thing to pay attention to when considering a goal is how comfortable it makes you. page 217, “” starting with I repeat when visualizing, what goals resonate with your heart, make sure not to pay attention to attainability, prestige, how you would achieve it. Sit with it and pay attention to how it makes you feel, what it would be like to have it. Slides and Visualization Illusions, visions, etc. are not fantasy but a perception of another reality in the alternatives space. A slide is a lens that you put in front of your perception. Create a slide that resonates with the heart and the mind. Outer intention will gradually realize the content of your slide. Every time you view the slide, add more detail. Do not copy and paste another persons life into your slide, make it your own. It is not an image, live in it in your mind. Rather than fixating on the end goal, visualize the process of growth. “In transurfing, visualization is understood to be the act of focusing on the image of realizing the next step in the transfer chain. If you do not know how to achieve something, focus on the slide of the goal, and the next step will come to you. -175 slides. positive v negative self perception. play the positive slide of you being the person you want to be until it simply integrated into your mind -slides are constantly playing, examine your negative slides that you play for yourself -pg 183 visualization techniques, if you want a farm, visualize details, as if you are there on your farm Play the positive slide of you being the person you want to be until it integrates into your mind. (pg 175) You must play a role in your visualization so the subconscious mind knows it is yours. If you want a farm, visualize details as if you are already there. (pg 183) When visualizing, focus on goals resonating with your heart. Ignore attainability, prestige, or logistics—pay attention to how it makes you feel. (pg 217) Hold the idea of canceling a goal: do you feel relief, or do you feel that you really must have this thing? Transfer Chain, problems, control Instead of focusing on a detailed plan, focus on the next step based on where you are right now. The transfer chain will likely change; focus on intention and the next step rather than attachment to a specific plan or outcome. The book compares this to a mother facilitating a child’s growth—not obsessing over all the details but focusing on the next stages of development. Problems are reframed as positive when you align with the transfer chain, focusing only on the next step based on where you are right now. -“problems” are when someone resists the current, reframing things that don’t align with your plan as positive will actually make it so. Resisting them and being attached to your specific plan will make them into problems. Reality transurfing covers the concept of a transfer chain, A link of steps to the goal. Instead of focusing on a detailed plan, simply focus on the next step based on where you are right now. You cannot predict all of the steps, and the transfer chain will likely change the book provides the analogy of a mother facilitating its child’s growth. The mother does not obsess over all the details that will lead to the child, being a healthy and happy adult. instead, she focuses on the next stage of growth, taking the first steps, or learning a new skill. So, it is important to focus on intention, the actual actions that you should be taking towards your goal. But this needs to come from the right, inner psychological vibration, without attachment, to a specific plan, or outcome, and trust and faith in the process, regardless of how things unfold. it is best to be present and take joy in the next step. if you are going to jump in the ocean, you would simply focus on putting 1 foot in front of the other, and enjoy that process, instead of thinking about how the waves will be and where exactly you will jump in at what angle. let go of that. this would obviously be neurotic, but our rationalistic material. Understanding of reality leads us to try and plan creating the life we want like this. Your vibration, mind, spirit, and actions are whats important, not some master plan Energy and Vibration Free energy can be downloaded into the body and channeled. Physical energy gets depleted, but spiritual energy cannot be stored and flows freely. Kundalini, up and down the meridians -inspiration comes when you just start working, if you sit around in anticipation and inaction waiting for inspiration, it surely will not come Your vibration, mind, spirit, and actions are what matter, not a master plan. Live in the present—everything is here and now already. Inspiration comes when you just start working; waiting for inspiration will ensure it doesn’t come. Use enough money to achieve goals but treat it with respect. Waves of good fortune and negative life lines Getting into a positive upward spiral has much to with your state of consciousness. Page 107 for negative spiral. Chapter 3 or 4 on wave of good fortune Money: -read 79-80 -it is very difficult to love money without wanting more of it, therefore to not be dependent on it, but we should strive for this as much as possible. Ultimately grounding should be in the present moment and ones inner world, and so one can appreciate money without attachment. -Fear is extremely powerful. So worrying that your income is gradually decreasing, that financial stress is coming, that you never have enough, is a powerful way to create life lines where this is the case. -practice gratitude for the money you have. Be ready for more, but content and relaxed. -pendulums will convince you that you need money for your goals, and then money becomes your new goal. People then loose focus on their goals and come under control of the pendulum. -focusing on money you loose the power of pursuing a goal that your heart wants, and you get neither the things you want from the money nor the money. -treat money with respect and be responsible, but without fear -if something is part of your true goals, spend money on it, and have no regrets parting with the money. -spend money wisely to promote the flow of your life lines and experiencing your goals. I already took notes on this^ oops, read it has some new stuff -fear of money, budgeting, fear of income decreasing or that there won’t be enough will manifest itself -instead, focus on things OUTSIDE of money, we think that money is everything and pendulums convince us that money is the source of joy -this means for me being present, finding joy in nature and relationships, which is the true source of joy, and no matter what happens with money I will have this. -also be grateful for the money I do have, appreciate the value it does give me. Appreciate when money does come but do not worry about it. -pendelums convince you you need money to achieve your goals, and you loose sight of your purpsoe. you cannot make a lot of money in a pendelum that is not aligned with your purpose -Focus on the actual goal, e.g. to travel and spend time in nature with a community, and money will come as an accompanying attribute. -You cannot place the chances of achieving your goal on the condition of getting money first. Visualize the original goal. -Do not be frugal and afraid, but this doesnt mean be careless. Use enough money to achieve my goals, but still treat it with respect -Makes me think i should really focus on personal brand, my state of mind, and not grind dropshipping beyond what feels natural -simply give yourself permission to have the things that you want, and let go of the battle to get them through money. People convince themselves that they need to work their whole lives just to have vacations and retirement, where they will get their freedom, but they are subjecting themselves to this pendulum. You will not win this battle by fighting it, but by withdrawing attention from the pendulum. if you give yourself the freedom and permission and Will to have the things you want, insufficient funds will simply not be an obstacle. Action: -action is the key to worry and anxiety, waiting in expectation -if you desire, accept possibility of defeat and act Hues, transaction, life lines,deja vu explain déjà vu within the context of trans surfing. Time is not linear and so déjà vu is not simply seeing something that has happened before. It is a peak into a different sector and lifeline in the alternative space. For me, while practicing the techniques and trans surfing, I’ve had a few times where I have déjà vu surrounding my goals and a different lifeline where my life reflects having met those goals. I think this is super powerful because it opens up to the subconscious mind that sector of the alternative space. it is already there, your thoughts simply don’t reflect it. Pg 350 or right before: 1visualize a point a few interest in front of your stomach and a few inches behind, now imagine rotating the front one up and the back one down 2visualize your target slide, making sure that you are living the slide instead of just looking through it. 3 look clearly and focused ahead at an ordinary scene do not force this exercise and simply do it when it feels natural. The purpose of it is to perceive movement through the alternative space, which can be helpful however it is not necessary. this exercise will help shift you onto lifelines that align with your slides, if this shift happens, you may notice that things simply have a different hue to them, a different texture. Just like when you have déjà vu reality feels different, there is a different texture, and identity and external world , this hue can involve your senses, but can be more abstract The other, the world, reality You need to trust that the world will take care of you. We sever our relationship with the world and so it allows us to go out on our own, using inner intention. When we trust that the world is taking care of us, it allows us to have a relationship with the world. Your mental outlook should be as if you already have or are about to recieve what you want The mirror principles 1 the world is a mirror that reflects your relationship to it 2 the reflection is formed by the unity of the heart and mind 3 there is a delay in the reaction of the mirror 4 Stop staring at the contents of the mirror and trying to force them with inner intention. Instead, the nature of the content of your thoughts creates reality. It is the content of, not your opinion about your thoughts that influences what you create 5 Focus your attention on an end goal as if it has already been reached 6release your grip and allow the world to move with the alternatives flow 7 embrace any reflection as positive: The world says “as u wish” to your relationshipto it, how it treats you. You control good fortune by believing you are having good fortune

Yea I'm taking a break from tripping. after 9 years of being into this stuff I am going to just go build a business and work on social skills. I can sense a 5meo trip would break me out of it, but just being totally sober leads to massive momentum. It's not a miserable thing, when it's what your heart wants, it can be a beautiful spiritual experience.

Do you think being very grounded in spirituality, actualized.org teachings, etc. can help you navigate it properly? Also what about the argument that the social skills you learn will translate into life purpose skills? I probably wouldn't be interested if I didn't see multiple ROI's beyond just simply sex

I would think that being aware that everything is absolute love, truth, god, would eliminate suffering. I've had awakenings that completely eliminated suffering, showed me that every single quality of consciousness was absolutely PERFECT. So why couldn't someone reside in that awareness.

@Leo GuraAre you residing in this consciousness or just going off a conceptual framework from your psychedelic memories? Personally I can't take much back from my deepest trip awakenings, but I still someone know it was true, I just don't know how to conceptualize that. It's like once you see something, it is self evident, even if you aren't looking at it. But still I am skeptical of things that are not coming from your direct experience

Woah this is a super radical thing to say. I was wondering if you thought this. So you think permanent enlightenment just is not real? Just classic buddhist escape from suffering? yea yea body hurts functionality but for an enlightened person isn't the whole idea that there is no self illusion there to suffer? This is a pretty radical thing to say that contradicts like all spiritual consensus. Genuinely super curious to hear more about this, it raises so many questions. You really think that if you are able to suffer you can be experiencing the highest truth? isn't that a massive bias?

Hm so much to say. @nerdspeakwhen did you learn from him? I don't really have a strong belief about this, in fact I'm trying to figure it out. I think I also want it to be true that he is more evolved. But yea a lot of the points here were solid. But I think I also wanted to see how you guys would react to a steelman of him. But yea I see the truth in a lot of the points made. At the same time I think there is so much to learn from him. It's almost the perfect combination for when I'm at with the grounding of Leo's stuff. After years of just that stuff my business and dating need some serious work for a while. Still I will say I do think Owen has probably grown a lot. As far as that shady manipulative stuff with afterparty, I know julien was into that, but owen has said recently multiple times how careful he is about consent, even if it's just to protect himself haha. He seems to really believe that his sales tactics are helping people, and he always mentions that sales has to be win win to work. I think he can go a bit far but it really is not Overall I'm definitely still sure I have a lot to learn from him. I think his stuff will be transformative for my life purpose, and dating life. One thing, I can feel energy pretty clearly, and there have been some speeches he gives that have been absolutely psychedelic, deeply profound energetic experiences, where I was overflowing with unconditional love. Watch this one -if you can look past some bad nuggets of delusional 'content' and feel the energy and developmental perspective of this video -if you want to hear his actual critique of psychedelics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ejszg1E-dGY

haha yea lets go game I'm ready

I get all these things, sometimes you will do one thing for a while (presence, healing, fulfilling lifestyle ) and then realize you really want to work on a big project, for example. As long as your energy is going towards good things, don't worry so much. You have time, and as you walk the path, all these things will become clearer. There is simply no way to really have this all figured out from right now.

If you don't know all those concepts you are walking in the dark. It's not the end all be all, you will need more information relative to your specific life purpose and personal self. It's a great foundation though and I'm very glad I took it. It was also good to get it as something I was thinking about and to set my goals high.

@nerdspeak Owen was very clear about his psychopathic narciccist analogy at the event. He just means for people who are very much in a loving spiritual energetic world, in order to have success in the physical world, they need to train themselves to see the utility and use of everything, including people. He mostly talked about protecting your time and energy. Being very utilitarian about building systems that allow you to get where you want to go. But yea that sounds like a terrible path to go down. Again maybe im biased because it's so easy for me to sort the wheat from the chaff but I think he was being clearer than it sounds like he used to be about that one.

Definitely true but also you can relate to this in a way that he is just an exceptional human in his field, all the massive projection is unnecessary. You can still behave normally and not project a bunch of stuff. For me it just took meeting a few people that I really looked up to to realize they are just normal people + I respect their expertise and excellence in a field I'm interested in, qualities which are universal and also within me

A meeting room almost seems like a bad place to do this, like where in a hotel? What if staff comes up. And Indoors, with fluorescent lighting and EMFs. Wouldn't some retreat center a bit outside of the city be better, where people can walk outside after without a jarring environment, without any risk of disturbance.

NYC freetour notes Marzcell Klein: #1 reason people will trust you is if you’re confident, how you dress, how you carry yourself. the reason you will be confident is if people have liked you. Vulnerability is confident. honest and trustworthy, openness, vulnerability are the #1 signals you can trust someone. we are in rapport with people who are like us or who we want to be like confidence comes from teaching yourself not to hide things from others shortcut to sales calls and relationships is pure authenticity. if you play games you will be fighting a massive battle and always chasing. whatever triggers you or hurts you tells you you have an insecurity. if i feel hurt when a girl doesn’t like me its because i am insecure about my likeability 3 things to create rapport -body language, mirrors neurons, having similar body language builds rapport. with confidence and presence this comes naturally -tone -words, saying words or things youre not supposed to say builds trust pacing and leading physical things builds rapport abundant paradigm prevents you from needing something from someone insecurity is essentially belief. every insecurity creates its own reality. RAS allows you to maintain a belief, generalizes, deletes, distorts. if you want to find out your limiting beliefs, ask why you aren’t where you want to be write out a massive goal, right after you visualize something like that you will feel big excitement, then your limiting beliefs will come up. if you’re afraid to ask for money, you have a limiting beliefs and will charge small prices -social calibration to someones emotional state law of state transference happens with mirror neurons. a dog barks and does a bunch of stuff, could become violent so it is scary when someone isnt calm. confidence allowed you to learn things faster Owen notes guard your time preciously when selling something, being very engaged but not attached to outcome signals the right energy, giving not taking -pitch -1st understand is that most sales bullshit is a waste of time -people in a high paradigm are shuffling the ball down the field, things are moving. unlike flurry of activity going nowhere -people dont pitch because they have a scarcity poverty mentality, which can also lead to not being willing to charge a good amount. people go to do the cta and they tense up ive got to have a great product, work on developing it so i really believe in it stack sale because i love it. Add a bunch of bonuses that will help the client get the result, that's how you know what to stack. PEOPLE WILL get the value that they invest, once you realize that you will feel good at a higher price. i need to think about for myself, the value that they will get out of it. the beggining of sales is inner game. they cant value you or the service if they dont have an investment like once a girl has sex with you, she can see your value, and will invest and be in love if you dont do good sales all this action goes to nothing making a thorough youtube series on my pitch, this will get multiple rois, i will also learn how to do my pitch his idea of a speech that doesnt go anywhere is the same as game that doesnt go anywhere sales is like instead of just talking in the club, passionate sex and going into nature together a sales pitch is a fine tuned surgery, it is very sensitive to

@Leo GuraGood points. He definitely could be a lot more developed. I was pretty impressed by how much more conscious he is than his youtube videos make him look sometimes. I definitely have a lot to learn from him. I'm going to post my notes per peoples recommendation. It's a lot more focused on business. I found the business stuff to be really helpful.

I started a market garden farm (definitely my domain but now I build gardens for people/organizations instead of farming), at one point tried did tiktok shop stuff for a bit(really realized how horrible it is to do something just for money).

Hey man, I took the course whenI. was 16 or 17, now 23. Don't worry, this is normal, a couple tips. -Start with the small bets. Just try something. there is no one perfect thing. -Then, it will be like peeling back layers of an onion. I also just didn't have enough life experience, but after doing a couple different things, I have enough perspectives on what things I want to integrate into what my life purpose is. Business model, domain, what you will do, your area of mastery, you really can't know these things for sure yet. When I did it, it felt fake almost, like I followed the steps, but I just knew I was putting something together that I had no idea if it was real or not. Don't expect instant results, this is material you will work with for a very long time, it's a long game, not a short game. For me, I honestly just needed to get a job I enjoyed and buy myself some time for a while while I explored different options. Now my life purpose is very close actually to my original one and in the same category, but the business model is completely different

One final thing about sales. I do think there is value to using sales tactics when you really believe in something. If Leo used a bit more of sales and marketing for his life purpose course, thousands of people would have better lives and impacts on the world that just needed a bit of limiting-belief-busting-objection-handling, energetic state pumping to buy it. I personally felt foolish buying anything like it and waited like 6 months to finally buy it, and might not of if I wasn't such a fanboy. Also if anyone wants my extensive notes from the NYC freetour DM me. a bit of personal stuff mixed in so not gonna post here but I got a lot out of it. I have been very sketpical about Owen for years but the more I learn from him the more I see there is incredible value in his work, its indispensible for life purpose and social life.

Definetely still agree with a lot of this. As far as psychedelics. What he says about personal growth and not needing psychedelics is actually pretty good. It's not a shallow perspective, but he talks about how to get the same experience from life itself. But what he doesn't get is the value of 'experiencing' absolute truth, and why some of the risks of psychedelics pale in comparison to the value of that. He does teach some stuff about ethics at a pretty deep level.

@Joshe You can do it in a not dirty way. There are manipulative outer techniques and deep identity level change. Ultimately the way Owen teaches it is being deeply authentic and getting rid of your neurotic holding patterns and creating better internal beliefs. You don't need to be ashamed about that. I tell my very close female friends about it, they think it's cool. Owen and his coaches bring girls to the freetours every time. Do you really think all these people on this forum constantly yapping about pickup are engaging in something that is based on manipulation and fakeness? Of course most pickup is like that, but the conscious version is an incredible alchemizing thing. I've seen him infield, his game is world class and his looks do not hold him back. Or watch infield, unless you think it's all staged.

For sure. If I hadn't been studying your stuff for 9 years I would be way more vulnerable to that stuff. So perhaps I'm biased because it's easy for me to sort the wheat from the chaff. I do think Owen wants to bring people up to yellow, he even mentioned spiral dynamics in his speech lol. Edit: "But if you study my work seriously it will innoculate you against Owen-style corruption." Just read this. exactly.
