Now that would be fun

I decided to post this here as opposed to the dating section because of the lens through which I'm asking this question. Background: I'm 16, extremely busy with school, barely have time to meditate and read daily. I can see a lot of potential if I continue personal development. I am less busy on weekends. I left my last relationship because it was so shallow and we didn't connect on a deep level. I've the desire to be in a relationship in the last month or so. Question: Should I get a girlfriend/ date around? Pro's: I want a girlfriend. It sounds fun. New experiences. Con's: Less time to do actualization work. It won't make me truly happy. Part of me wants to spend my extra time working on myself because it will lead to greater happiness. The other part thinks that's a grouchy idea and I'm throwing away great experiences for no good reason. I remember Leo said in a video teens shouldn't worry about relationships. I'd like to hear some more well thought out perspectives and advice.

Shadow dance is a great book, full of practices. Plenty on youtube, but none from Leo. This girl comes on this forum.

That sounds dangerous!

Definitely means you have some trauma. Shadow work. for sure. trust me when that's gone you will be so diffferent

Hey I'm also 17. When Leo mentioned in the course that if you are young you might need more experience, i thought about it, and it clicked. I definitely think you should move towards what you have, even if you are unsure, in a way that gives you valuable life experience. That's what I'm doing.

Great green perspective on happiness based on social systems. orange v green

@fridjonk Plus Iceland is beautiful. Do you ever jump in the ocean? I did once.

misread as david hawkins and got all excited bc the guy is dead and somehow got on joe rogan before that but nope

that's an exciting place in life to be in! let us know how it goes.

Can you at least point towards a serious path of research, like the one you went down?

Please please make one on should I go to college in the next few months, or at all. also you could make one on your neuro feedback thing. I think a lot of us would actually do it

@Leo Gura which one would you reccomend getting?

oh my god you;re right!

Isn't Jp at least somewhat yellow in some ways? could your friend be taking the yellow parts of him to move up? I still can't figure out if JP is part yellow and blue orange somehow or just blue orange with what seem like systemic thinking buzzwords and ideas he hasnt really integrated

@Serotoninluv I've noticed you are really good at explaining concepts like this and also more theoretical (not about a specific situation) things. You have potential way beyond explaining things on a forum.

yea dude i found info on campaign finance laws in one google search

saw this. poor guy. just wanna hug him

I'm applying there this fall, their admission dude is coming to my school in a week. Do I mention the psychedelics?...

Leo repeatedly responded to this Salvijus guy, but the original posts aren't showing up. This happens in other threads too. Is Salvijus deleting them? deleted account? glitch?

This is very long but I just tuned in like 10 minutes ago and this is so insightful, I really like this style.

Took it a couple years ago and got enfj, took it just now and got enfj- A amazing how consistent it is. 86% extraverted 66% Intuitive 86% Feeling 71% Judging 58% Assertive This confirms an idea I've had related to life purpose that I eventually want to become a political or social leader, my personality is ripe for it, if I could get a couple decades of life experience and development under my belt

My ideal lifestyle would be living alone on a small farm where I have minimal work, live frugally, and grow most of my own food and sell some things for what I need. If you are familiar with Joel salatin's visionlogic farming that's what I'm going for but on a smaller scale. Anyone have any ideas on this? where do i start researching?

beautiful

Go fuck 10 other girls. seriously though, have you considered other people? imagine if you could have a relationship as good as what you had but she is cool with personal development and meditation
