  1. If I were to change my life I would: Start by building the habit that serves me the most - meditation. Then, I would find my life purpose and get involved with relationships and dating. In this area, I would focus on taking lots of action and creating a big picture model of how it works and also craft a vision of what my ideal relationship. Also, I would try to start different habits that allow me to realize my life purpose: That is a good starting point...
  2. I have gotten promising results since I have startes to love myself more. Because I no longer feel as angry or guilty toward myself and other people as I have in the past
  3. For me, I also have a problem with guilt and have dealt with it for over a year. It has been painful and you're not alone my friend. Guilt is one of those emotions that are very tricky to deal with. I have tried various different techniques and many have not work because they are not tackling the root cause of guilt which is self hate. Guilt exists as a result of self hate and its purpose is to create even more of it. Note that if this is the case, then all guilt can be solved by cultivating self love and accepting yourself 100%
  4. If you come from the frame that getting a boyfriend will make you happy, then you will be very disappointed and regret the decision later. Because it will not bring you happiness at all. If your goal is happiness, then you should change your strategic intent (your goal) and go work on meditation and enlightenment. That will give you TRUE happiness. However, you can still want a boyfriend and get into a relationship. Nothing wrong with that. Just make sure it is for the right reasons...
  5. When you are looking back at your life in 10 years, you will likely realize that you should've done what gave you the most satisfaction at the time. Some people are just not worth it. Better to go off on your own sometimes...
  6. I think it is important to note that becoming "unstuck" takes time. It also takes a lot of effort mentally/emotionally because you are leaving your comfort zone to pursue something. The thing I believe you should go for is meditation. 20 minutes daily at least. Why? Meditation gives you focus & Awareness Willpower to build new habits more energy More happiness and the more you do it the happier you become. and much more Warning: You will resist this change in the beginning stages and likely skip days. Cuz it is not easy. Try to be aware of how you distract yourself and meditate whenever you have the most energy. Do whatever you can to not miss a day. That is the most important.. After meditation has become a habit for u, then u can add another habit. Hope this helped u
  7. It is very easy for you to overcome any rejection once you develop your awareness to a high level. You will see that there is no YOU who got rejected in the first place. And that this whole game is a total illusion and that the only one who is creating the suffering and the idea of rejection is YOU. When you know this, you can DROP this idea and suffering easily and do whatever you want
  8. If you meditation consistently every day for 20 minutes or more, after some time, you will start to experience this. Because thoughts and feelings get purified during meditation if you are trained and get into an alpha state during your session. Then that means that your body releases thoughts and emotions and you will be aware of the these unconscious feelings and aspects of self as they are occuring within awareness.
  9. I have realized that changing your Infernal and external circumstances can sometimes happen very quickly after a genius flash of insight has occured. And in my own life, I have not experienced such an insight for a long time and I kind of miss the rapid results and the feeling of intense pride and gratitude that comes as a biproduct. I would therefore really like to know what is needed for these insights to occur
  10. Take notes on everything Leo talks about and make sure that you are not just writing down theory. Go the extra mile and find out action steps you can take based on what is being said - write it Down too. Use that to take action. And do all the exercices presented in some of his videos and create a Daily practice of the habits he talks about. Good luck

  12. My parents divorced back in 2011 and I am STILL experiencing quite a lot of emotional distress as a result. I still feel anger, betrayal, let down, hurt, broken. But I really do not know how to deal with it. Because of this, my emotional state has not really improved in this time because I keep holding on to them like a crutch. And I have heard from people like Elliot Hulse that emotions that are not expressed become neurotic holding patterns and I don't want to have that. But I can't get myself to express my emotions. That is too painful in itself. I have so much SH#T in my system that is ready go get unleashed, but I fear the force and I feel like I am being a pussy whenever I let go and just express. I can't get myself to do it. Every time I try, I fail by holding on and not releasing. If you have any idea on how to let go and express your negative emotions, please leave a suggestion to help me and other people facing this issue All the best
  13. I think you should just sit down all day and do nothing. Like a homeless
  14. Proper nutrition Work ethic/discipline Patience Meditation/enlightenment work Strategic thinking Visualization Life purpose Fitness Learning
  15. You're right. Distracting yourself will not help in this endeavor to change an emotional state. I did it for a long time and it did not help. What did, however, help a little bit was daily meditation where I get in touch with these emotions and experience them as they are -sensations. It is not a quick-fix in the sense that you do not quickly experience a change in emotions. It is quite subtle, but it definitely is noticeable. So I will continue doing that because I can see that it will make me transcend it and make me arrive at a more comfortable place emotionally. But are there any other things I can do? I'm always open to new ideas
  16. I would assume a large part of it are the books from his booklist on "actualized.org"
  17. When we try to make a change, what we typically do is to try to change the system from within the system itself. This does not work because the system is really helpless to change itself. To change the system, you must become aware of its functioning and apply this principle: Awareness alone is curative. What this means is that you can make any unwanted behaviour auto correct simply through awareness. Awareness is an in the moment observation of what is happening in the present moment. An example of one using awareness to get rid of an unwanted behaviour: A person goes and orders a unhealthy burger. Whilst he is ordering it, he stays aware of the process and once he sits down, he does not try to manipulate himself to not eat the burger, but he does it with awareness. This awareness has to be applied CONSTANTLY in any situation where you want to stop a bad behaviour. It is not enough to be aware once and then loose awareness. That will not work because it will send you back into unconsciousness and lead to more doing of the unwanted behaviour. In fact, to do any unwanted behaviour (eating a burger, smoking, drinking, moralizing, it is required that you MUST be unconscious to an extend whilst doing it. Because if you were fully conscious, it would reveal the damage that it does to your life and you would not want to engage in that behaviour any more and the behaviour will stop. Not only will it stop, but it will also auto correct which means that it will automatically be corrected to something more ressourcefull. So this person in the example stated previously would likely substitute his burger for something more healthy like a salad in his meals. This is just one case and this principle that awareness is curative can be used with ANY unwanted behaviour you have. To use this, of course you need awareness first, so how do you develop awareness? By flexing your awareness muscles. The best way to train this is through meditation - build a habit of doing it for 20 minutes daily for the rest of your life - no sick days, no days off at ALL. Hope this helped
  18. I find that many people often believe that they can just simply start habits, create relationships, make a business take off, become enlightened, create a meditation habit. And when they do that, they simply just rush into the project without ever questioning their actions. They just assume that what they are doing is "good enough" and that if they keep doing what they have always done that somehow they will achieve success. Guess what, it is not. How do I know? Because I do this in areas where I am lacking results - relationships primarily and with meditation. I have recognized the problem and the problem is NOT that I am not taking enough action, well part of it is , but also I am not strategic enough. Strategic thinking. This is SO FUCKING IMPORTANT. In my meditation, I just rushed it. I did not anticipate my lower self and all of its sneaky/deceptive forms of manipulating me to not do what I am supposed to do. I therefore have struggled to create a habit of doing it consistently. Also in relationships. I have not really asked myself essential questions such as: What I really want in this area? What are the fundamental principles of being a man? How can i attract the woman I desire? If I had done that earlier and had been looking for ressources to get it and applied strategy, I would have been much better off. You need to be strategic in your approach to improving your life. This is what Leo talks about, but I really want to stress that this definitely is one of the MOST CRITICAL HABITS for self actualization - just as essential as meditation and enlightenment to me. Because think about it: How are you going to satisfy your needs/goals if you do not have a strategy for doing so? It is impossible because you will not be able to work around your obstacles - emotional obstacles, obligations, thoughts, self deception, ego, social conditioning, lack of knowlede. They will hit you like a giant wave all at once unless you have the cleverness to work around it and be more clever than your life is But to do this, you need the habit. This for me is a habit that should be spent doing every day as part of a routine. I just have this intuition that it is important and I hope you have that too... Please share your ideas with me about this. Would love to hear what you think.
  19. @popi Mastery by George Leonard is a great book that will teach you how to deal with resistance when taking on a challenge like meditation in this case. Also, it can give you a clear understanding on what you need to do to become a Master at whatever you want and the process of mastery itself in any field. So I highly reccomend it
  20. In life, I find that people generally are highly critical of eachother. A common example is with girls and clothing. They judge because they are jealous of Them because they have something that they secretely want. This principles does not only with regards to clothing. It can occur as a result of jealousy of another person in any area of life. And can ACTUALLY use jealousy to discover what they desire to acquire themselves. So next time you are jealous, try to find out what you want that they have and use it to create a vision for yourself instead of going about your day without noticing. It can reveal a lot about your desires. So I urte you to try it Sincerely Christian
  21. It is not a nice feeling to be driven by envy - in my experience it actually makes me quite miserable when really thinking about it and I usually don't take that much action when I feel this Way. The critical side takes over and nothing really gets accomplished. But the thing I want May still be the thing that I'm envying someone for having and it May have true lasting value if it is my life purpose or enlightenment. Still a possibility... But the problem is that again it is hard to take right action from a place of toward an objective. I think it may be great to transcend the envy to something like inspiration or curiosity to have the nesseccary drive to take action and realize what you desire...
  22. But lets say that I was envyous of someone like Eckart Tolle because he is enlighthened master. Then, I think that is a good form of envy if I can use it as motivation to become enlighthened myself and actually get some great Benefits such as: Ego death Unconditional self love Bliss Pure flow Being cognition etc. That would be envy working in your favour But it mostly does not Becuase the things you are envyous about like someone having a Nice car, good looks, great physique/appearance, etc. These things will never make you happy if you get Them unlike the holy grail - enlightenment.
  23. I think that you're right. Envy and jealousy can come from low self worth, definetly. But I also think it is important to be open minded enough to use the envy to discover what you want as a direct experiment in reality and try to realize it. From this, you can see whether getting the thing you envyed someone for was really worth it long term. And if it does not and is a waste of time to you, don't do it and try something else. No need to stick with something that does not work
  24. Self actualization is scary and overwhelming if you take on too much at once. Therefore I reccomend that you shall only instill one habit at a time and still learn the theory by watching videos. The habit should be the one that is most important to you. For me, it is simply doing nothing for 20 minutes a day because it makes me more happy and makes it easier to build other good habits and leads to true inner growth. Maybe you should try that for some time and build from there...
  25. Yeah, I know these things, and I am doing both. But I was wondering if there were other points that are connected to this that I have not thought of yet and can apply by him making a video about them ofc
