  1. It’s me vs me 

    I could spend years distracting myself with alcohol, partying and golf holiday trips 

    All to just get by with some cheap dopamine hits 

    Life is a personal development challenge where it’s a test of my inner game 

    The fruits of mastering oneself in life is the money, women and fame

    But those external results in life are not the things to chase 

    It’s mastering my own mindset, that’s the challenge I have to face 

    Wherever I go in the world, that’s where I’ll always be 

    The same inside sitting with myself because it’s always me vs me 


  2. I agree there’s always a team around musk. He’s never on his own. 
    But I still think the accomplishment of Tesla and SpaceX is amazing. 
    It’s easy to criticise musk, but how many people could have done what he did with those companies and have the vision, willing to trust big decisions, and just overall be capable of everything it takes to run those huge companies… 

    I see my friends criticising musk when they can’t even get to work on time, never mind be CEO of a worldwide companies with 10’s of thousands of employees 


  3. I wish I could find stage yellow people too 

    I’ve hung out with new crowds at meditation retreats but they’re so green it’s unreal. They’re mostly all broke and living in camper vans, saying how elites are keeping them down and they’re going on a march…  and they’re so blind of their own perspective. There’s no talking to them. They’re sweet though. 

     

    anyway, wish I could find some yellow folks too. At the moment I just get my yellow fix from watching tons of Leo’s content, Eben pagans courses, Aubrey marcus’ content… it’s so lovely to see how their minds work 


  4. Thank you to @A Fellow Lighter @JonasVE12 @nistake @OceanRiver @itachi uchiha for taking the time for your replies. I appreciate it 

    I've been contemplating this, and took your thoughts on board. I think for now i've come to this conclusion 

    I accept and I'm grateful that through previous difficult times in my life, I'm now able as a skill to turn 'negative' situations or emotions around as fuel for a positive. I don't want to live in an unhappy state though of not enjoying the process and journey through life. So I'm going to accept that the positive motivation is a lot slower for me, but it's consistent and I'm also happier on the journey. Then when something 'negative' emotionally or situationally happens then I will use that for fuel, but I'm not going to be waiting around for negative emotions or try and dramatise negative situations in order to fuel myself. I will just use the consistent and slow positive motivation most of the time, and know that when negativity strikes I can turn it around 

    I guess this was just difficult as the negative motivations was such a strong fire fuel, the equivalent of a fast Ferrari car. Positive motivation feels like a slow car, so I almost thought it was 'wrong' but actually it probably just feels wrong initially because it is slower and not the same. But I would rather be consistent and happy on this infinite journey of self actualising 

    Thanks so much! 


  5. From past difficult life experiences, I managed to harness all the negative emotions like sadness, disappointment, frustration, anger, etc to motivate me before in the past. 
    Using these emotions really worked for me in helping me create a new life for myself, I worked harder than ever. 
     

    but I was neurotic, not that happy and not able to enjoy the journey/process. I think because that motivation system ‘worked’ though I keep falling into that system 
     

    I’ve seen Leo’s video on positive vs negative motivation, and I’ve tried shifting it to positive, the vision of a positive future, vision boards etc and it just doesn’t motivate me. It just doesn’t. At least no where near the motivation from negative emotions. 
     

    I noticed it nearly get toxic recently. I fell out with a friend, they were a bit out of order, I felt pissed off, frustrated and angry and guess what… I did my best weeks work ever 

    I honestly want to fix this to be happier on the journey. But if I can be fully happy now how will I have amazing motivation to create a future? 
     

    any advice appreciated. Thank you

    Good decision.

    Being so disconnected and unable to respond on the same contextual level of the question is the opposite of being conscious or awakened. 

    Being conscious means that you are conscious of the present context and know how to navigate it while perhaps alluding to something greater, being responsible for everything you say, how you say it, and how it will affect or be perceived by whoever asked.

    In the same way that if you want to help someone climb a mountain you don't always show them your great pictures that you so proudly took of the sky and the horizon seen from the top,  you instead give them the gear necessary to climb and survive the weather, a map, and perhaps some words of encouragement.

    @Crane Bahnsteik perfectly said! 


  7. I completely agree Leo 

    nahm is obviously evolved in ways but I never found his contributions helpful at all. I was always surprised that someone like nahm who has done so much spiritual work was severely lacking in social intelligence to know the relative communication people need to help them. 
    Don’t want to spread negative energy and say anymore … 

    That being said, no one is perfect and everyone’s just trying their best in life. Love to nahm and all here
