You see yourself as a child because you see yourself as a child Adopt the identity of an adult and you will slowly mold into the beliefs and actions of an adult Wear a wristband to remind yourself the affirmation " I am and adult " Bonus points for defining " what is an adult? How does an adult behave ? How does an adult not behave? How does an adult think? As you consistently think about it ,you will slowly change how you think and behave. It will become who you are Human beings always act, feel and think in accordance with what they believe to be true about themselves and the world

Core characteristics of ambush predators: Camouflage: Ability to blend into the environment to avoid detection by prey. Stealth: Minimal movement and silent approach to remain unnoticed. Patience: Willingness to wait for extended periods until prey comes within striking distance. Sudden Attack: Rapid and explosive movement to capture prey quickly. Precision: Accurate and well-timed strikes to ensure successful capture. From Leo's Blog: The irony would be if the camaraman got snatched by another croc for walking up to the place where the baboon just got snatched.

Fun little game here, let's not take it too seriously. When I first asked myself this question the first thing animal that came up to mind was a Fox, and it actually is aligned with some of my top values which are ingenuity and playfulness Other than that I thought Turtle, because I drive a small camper van and as an introvert sometimes it feels like I can go back into my shell whenever I want a time out from socializing What's yours and why?

I dug up this pic back from 2019 Lots of these wild goofy fellas at my place. Currently one has been roaming my bedroom for a month. Sometimes I find him on my pillow or crawling on the ceiling on top of me when I'm at my pc lol I love geckos. Get yourselves a handful. They are the cats of the reptile world Get yourself a pocket sized croc What's my prize?

Personal Development enthusiasts sometimes end up being somewhat naive with what is or is not possible for each one of us with that " my beliefs are the only limits " mindset. Let's gather all the genetic lottery winners ? Note : Try to discern high skill and mastery from LITERALLY genetically special people. Genetically special people that also have high mastery ( Like Charly Puth's Perfect Pitch ) is okay for this thread as well. But not just mastery or high skill. For example, no ammount of training will give you the ability to hear colors without the right genetics ( AKA Synesthesia ) Here are some examples of what I mean :

@UpperMaster sneak peek appetizer https://www.actualized.org/insights/learning-from-partially-false-perspectives @Davino my ego says my ego is tier 3 so it can't possibly be wrong

Vestigial traits in humans are remnants of structures or behaviors that had a function in ancestral species but have lost most or all of their original purpose due to evolution.

High fever is physically taxing but I actually love the cognitive benefits. The raised metabolism and body temperature that's fighting the infection enhances thinking, at least for me. I don't know about focusing on some external information, by for contemplation inside of my mind is great

I'm sure it's not something Leo may be very fond of but it seems it's just a matter of time before someone scrapes all the video transcripts and trains an AI on it. I find It inevitable and of tremendous value to the people that are already familiar with the content. I would definitely recommend putting it behind a monthly subscription paywall. @FlyingLotus already summarized all the content using AI as a first step. https://ai.servicespace.org/ is an example of this. It has been trained on over 1600 transcripts of his videos and it's basically like having a conversation with Jeffrey Mishlove. It's feels like the natural evolution of Leo's work. A decade to create the body of wisdom to ultimately feed it into an interactive tool. The nature of the beast is that there comes a point where the amount of content is so immense it gets exponentially difficult to get into it and review all of it, where as an AI chat-bot may be just the right solution. Anyways, I thought I'd bring out the elephant in the room and hear your opinions. Feel free to lock this if it's out of discussion

Confidence doesn't necesary requiere experience, just a lack of self-doubt. Some people's confidence comes from delusion, blind spots and dunning kruger effect. But yeah massive experience is a sure way of developing confidence, specifically with women

The desire to take credit and recognition exists for a reason, and that reason is survival, just like ALL human endeavors and ALL human features. It's one of many survival mechanisms. Credit and recognition can give you survival value. It can give you status, resources, validation, sex, money, etc. (Validation is also a survival value; your peers liking you means they will help you with survival.) Imagine being the inventor of big game hunting, fire, the lightbulb, or electricity. Credit and recognition for that one innovation or idea could make your genes spread exponentially. Survival is serious business, and giving credit where credit is due is essential for the evolution of society. Imagine you work hard for years to create a solution to a major problem, only for someone else to take the credit. That's a serious handicap to your survival. It's also deceitful, and you are being taken advantage of. The person who takes credit wouldn’t have the intellectual genetics that people think they do, which could lead to them getting status, sex, and resources that should have gone to someone else. The wrong genes would receive an unfair advantage, skewing natural selection (which is meant to boost beneficial survival traits, not deceitful ones). Deceitful traits can only last so long before getting weeded out by real valuable traits . Credit and recognition serve a real purpose in survival. We are still playing a game of survival with dead serious stakes at play, and we are nowhere close to transcending it. Without copyright, griefing would run amok. Why work hard if you can just steal someone’s work? That's the more energy efficient thig to do. We have tried that before given our lazy and selfish nature, and now laws are there for a reason. They are not perfect but it's better than nothing. We can always apply discernment to check if we are being dysfunctional and just crave attention and validation, or if we are actually being reckless and working against our own survival benefit when we still haven't built a solid foundation there. Emotions exist for survival reasons, and they may be screaming: "Hey! I need the fruits of that work!" Anyways, it's a tendency to be aware of. Check what the actual stakes are and make your decision. The ego can be insatiable, so drawing a line may be tricky. And the ego exists for Survival, so the more you get Survival sorted out the more you can lay back and let go of the need for recognition, instead of demonizing the survival mechanism for doing its intended purpose I wrote this (credit please) because I'm actually currently wrestling with the same situation and had to contemplate , why do I feel that way? Ultimately it really is something to let go of. Just don't be reckless with your survival efforts and you won't need the emotional reminder for it It's actually a cool double standard. It's cool if I benefit from others ideas for free but not the other way around

Superhuman levels of libido surely help as a motivation for mastering game. Results in pickup are exponential. Getting a GF does not scratch the same itch as experiencing abundance. At least satisfy whatever you're working with so you're not a horny desperate hyena and can focus on stuff you find meaningful

I like observing myself observing others, as the insights and learning is happening real-time , making sense of sense-making Tier 3 hobbies lol

whats your career?

Someone generate this one : Crocodile Wallstreet : Crocodile eating a Crocodile eating a Crocodile eating a Crocodile ( wolf of wallstreet theme for bonus points )

Also know as the principle of Marketittyng You can show a rack to a neardental high on fermented fruit and he'll have a similar strong emotional reaction than a modern dude

@Davino my bad, it was @MuadDib who leveraged AI to summarize all the content

You feel you're " glued " to your body because of your state of consciousness. You are your body, but also you aren't your body. I've been practicing Astral projection for the last month ( check out my journal, I share practical steps to have an Out of Body experience TONIGHT ) -- Google the Subtle body, that's what you're looking for in technical terms. In my own words, it's basically as if your physical material body is " overlapped " with the " Subtle body " ( Pure sensations without the need for a material body or sensory organs ), and if your state of consciousness is right ( during dreaming, or right upon falling asleep or right upon waking up ) you can exit your material body and experience the astral realm. You still see, feel and hear the same as if you had a material body, but it's just pure perception without the need for sensory organs

Yeah but understanding it from the outside is also part of understanding the whole. You can't have a full picture just from the inside. You need contrast and multiple perspectives. Understanding it from the inside comes with inherent blind spots. Just like asking women for dating advice or what do they want from a guy will give partial or misleading answers, because women don't have experience attracting women. But they do have access to a different experience which is not often explored by men because it's not required for getting laid, its not " useful" in pragmatic terms. In terms of our work I'd argue than understanding from the outside is more accurate and valuable than from the inside. We don't need or want to experience everything, cognitive understanding is good enough. In terms of the Universe, it prefers to experience , through incarnation from the inside. The universe ain't in a rush

Adrenal fatigue is very common with heavy metal toxicity. The single thing that has helped me with energy levels has been high doses of vitamin C. Pick a buffered form to avoid too much acidity. I use sodium ascorbate. I take up to 8 grams per day, but you may need some time before you can get there without an upset stomach. I’d recommend about 500 mg of sodium ascorbate every 3 or 4 hours for at least 2 weeks so that you can feel a proper difference, and then reconsider if it's something worth sticking with. I just buy 1 kg and make my own pills to save money, but what I linked is good enough. There is a night and day difference for me, and I’ve come to the conclusion that if I don’t supplement with large amounts of vitamin C, I am pretty much dysfunctional as long as I haven't detoxed from heavy metals. Besides that, look into adrenal cortex extract (IMPORTANT! JUST THE CORTEX!). It works wonders for fatigued adrenals. Anywhere from 1 to 20 capsules per day or even more. @Buck Edwards keep in mind it’s normal (to a degree) for you to take a while to wake up, especially if you happened to interrupt a sleep cycle, had poor sleep, a heavy dinner, lots of artificial light, stress, mosquitoes, an uncomfortable bed, too hot/too cold, dust mites allergy, etc. Other things to keep in consideration: at night, your oxygen levels decrease due to shallow breathing, blood doesn’t flow nearly as much due to lack of movement, low blood sugar from not eating for many hours, dehydration, and poor nutritional choices like chemicals in food or caffeine addiction can be felt in the mornings. Definitely have a wake-up routine to re-energize yourself. Move your body, get blood flowing and get some oxygen in. In other words , a nice walk in the park should get the job done.

This is the closest I've been to having astral sex. I'm beginning to see certain patterns and understanding that dimension more. I went lucid at the end of a super long dream that was pretty weird. I was being chased by someone and It was basically that hide and seek game where I was camouflaging as objects. It came to a point where it was ridiculous and that made me go lucid. I started flying to escape that situation and went through the floor without knowing where I'm going. All of the sudden I entered a massive party cave with maybe close to 2000 people. I could see the entire thing with my eyes. I started looking for a girl. There was an open air bar. I flew closer to some girls sitting on bar stools. They didn't recognize my presence. I kept flying. I could see hundreds of people. Two women were walking in front of me. They were in a cheerful mood, maybe early 30s. You would think I'm this dream world it would be just all hot babes but they were just okay. I approached one of them by flying closer and putting my arm around her shoulder and looking into her eyes. I basically communicated my intention of having sex. She was still cheerful and told me she has COVID 19 in a playful way. I felt it was a shit test and I said that I love COVID 19. She giggled and we hugged. I could really feel her body. I touched her belly and put my finger in her belly button. I could really feel it. She was super thin and I loved it I grabbed her by the elbow and together with her friend we started walking into a venue bar/club. I was beginning to exit the realm so I did deepening techniques: rubbing my hands together, clapping, touching my body... I looked down and could see my legs for the very first time. I even had an astral erection and could feel my astral Johnson. I couldn't find a place to isolate ourselves in the venue and I was feeling that everyone was watching us. I started beginning to exit the realm. I think it's because it was already 10 Am. Sun was shinning , my eye mask had skipped and there was construction noise... !! Damn You would think that it that dimension you can get away with whatever you want, but there seems to be a certain logic to things. Other beings need to recognize your presence, you need to communicate your intention by whatever way and they need to give you consent. And it seems that you need a private space as well for now so you accidentally don't feel feelings of shame that could get you kicked out of the realm. You need a degree of civilized behavior. You can't just go around sexually harassing others like you'd think you can get away with in the Astral realm. That will get you kicked out. You also can't manifest or control everything. There are certain parameters that you need to work with. Yes you control thins with your intent and your mind, but it doesn't seem to be absolute as of for now. That's so cool. Looking forward to learning more about the phenomenon. I'll look into My big TOE book and other online info. Maybe there are some more guidelines and I don't need to test everything from scratch

I have decided to start documenting my process of experimenting with out-of-body experiences (OBEs). I’m not sure if I have a predisposition for this, but it just seems to make sense for me. I have no specific expectations or goals besides experimentation and curiosity. I might consider it a distraction from building a solid foundation for my life, but on the other hand, it’s an intriguing and unconventional activity to explore during sleep time, as long as it doesn’t interfere with getting enough rest. My first OBE was described in this old thread: I was inspired by the video below, recently being recommended in my feed after listening to that Anika/Tristan Interview on New Thinking allowed. In my opinion, these seminar videos could be much shorter; there is a lot of repetition. However, I must say that the guidelines provided are effective. I learned things I wasn’t clear on before. Literally an hour after watching this video, I had an OBE that same night, just after the first cycle of REM sleep. I didn’t realize I could enter " the phase " immediately upon waking. I had always tried to do so as I was falling asleep, which seems to be the more challenging “direct method.” From my experience, you can enter "the phase" in three ways: Catch yourself as you’re falling asleep and use subtle body separation techniques (direct method) such as rolling out, levitating, falling through the floor, or doing a crunch. Use separation techniques as soon as you wake up (easier, indirect method). Realize you’re dreaming mid-dream, gain control, and achieve your specific goals for the session. Techniques like reality checks, such as trying to poke through the palm of your hand with your finger, can help you realize you’re dreaming and gain control of the dream. The video below explains that you have about one minute to cycle through various techniques before the window fades, and you’ll have to wait for your next REM sleep cycle. OBE Report 07/09/24 My consciousness wakes up shortly after falling asleep ( 90 min of sleep ). I don't move a single muscle and realize it’s the moment to try body separation techniques. The first technique, rolling out to the side, works immediately. I had to push with my intent a little, reinforcing the thought of "yes, I want this to happen." I feel the usual turbulences, shaking, vibrations, and buzzing noise. I immediately stand up. My motor skills are uncoordinated, and I stumble a lot. Everything is pitch black; my physical sensations have transferred to my subtle body, but my sight hasn’t. I touch the walls as I stumble towards my bathroom mirror (the first mandatory goal for newbies once in the phase). I touch the mirror frame. It’s cold, and it’s still pitch black. I stumble towards my desk to complete my second task (eating something and tasting it). I didn’t have food prepared at that moment, so I just grabbed my zeolite nanoparticle spray and did a couple of sprays into my mouth. Of course, it didn’t taste like anything, but I did feel the moisture and spray noise. I now have a tube of honey at my desk for the next try. I didn't have a third goal, I didn't see anything and I lost consciousness and woke up IRL. Funny thing is, I had woken up in my astral body 180º opposite on the head-to-toe axis, which is how I usually lie in bed. This time, I was reversed but still woke up in the default way. Lessons Learned: Clumsiness, sluggishness, and poor motor skills are signs of a bad separation technique. Only partial separation occurred. I’m not sure how much of this is within my control or if it’s sometimes unavoidable. Wake up the vision: I need to imagine my hands very close to my eyes, make rubbing or clapping noises, and feel them right there while imagining them into existence. If the vision wakes up but is blurry, I should scrutinize and focus on the details of my surroundings to deepen and sharpen the phase. Have a third goal after the mirror and getting food. For now, let’s just say I want to fly in my garden or access some subconscious information as suggested in the video.

Have you ever thought that, to the aliens, we are the aliens ?
