  1. @Hanna Luna yup definitely it gets worse before it gets better. This one grew me the most over time :
  2. @TheAlchemist Cool concept that your idea muscle can atrophy because of lack of use. I've seen this in actual people.
  3. Create an app that promotes people exchanging objects / services without the need for money, somewhat like the old barter economy. Create an app / website that allows you to work for someone for free as a way to learn , sort of like an unpaid internship or the old guilds Create a computer operating system / piece of software that is specifically designed for hyper-productivity Create an app / service / infrastructure for old people to take care of orphans, killing two birds with one stone (?) In Spain there is this APP called blablacar that allows you to give people a ride that want to go closeby to where you are driving as well, splitting the gas money and possibly making friends. Scale that if it's not in your country yet.
  4. @Buba how come you'd want to join one? I'm curious. I had a phase where I thought it would be the proper move as well, but then I actually met a "monk" ( bald guy in an orange toga with off brand crocks ) offering me to join one and I saw how deluded he was and how my desire to join one was rooted in my longing of something external imposing some kind of structure in my life. Too much freedom is terryfing in a way. I'd say become a modern monk that masters both the modern material world and the dettached spiritual world. But there is no harm in joining one for cuppa months and live the experience for yourself. My PUA friend joined this' guy ashram in far east Russia. https://youtube.com/c/MeditationSteps Idk how he did it though. I don't think it's too hard.
  5. Careful with black and white thinking. This will hold you back from so much learning. That guy can certainly provide with tons of value. You're throwing the baby with the bath water
  6. @Someone here we kinda talking about th feeling energetic and alert kind of good, not " stimulating good "
  7. I like calling that concept " your inner Cartman " Good recontextualization to not to take inner bitching seriously
  8. " With great power comes great irresponsibility "
  9. I love the personal mantra of " Resistance must be fought anew every day " . Very true. Although you can certainly make the whole process easier by putting willpower effort and planning into a structure that makes your grind more efortless and automatic If your goal is to pump out videos in front of the camera, invest in a small home studio, have all the camaras lighting batteries tripods backrgound notes editing program clean desk on point, for example. Figure out the details of your structure. Y ou could read the Path of Leat resistance. It has some really good insights on that point. Just by the name you can get some good insights. But most importantly, just do. More and more and more . Thanks for the old Tyler stuff folder btw
  10. i once was deceived with shady marketing to buy a "8 week RSD personal 1 on 1 mentoring program" for it to end up being one instructor with few dozens of students on a zoom call where you type in a question and wait an hour + for an anwser , once a week. For 2300€
  11. Look at his face on that last note. It that's not the face of mastery idk what is.
  12. @How to be wise https://rarediseases.org/rare-diseases/heavy-metal-poisoning/ - read this, quite insightful. And tap water is just one source that you know of that may be harming you. What about living close to traffic. What about cookware. What about contaminated staple foods. And what about all the exposure sources that you don't know about? You don't know what you don't know . Pull out your Black Sabbath shirts cause yes, most of the population has heavy metal in them.
  13. Because learning how to pick up wamen is creepy AF. But what people don't realize is that not learning it is actually more creepy. Cold approach is way too out of the box thinking for the average Joe for it to go mainstream. This has some good points but there is more.
  14. @Leo Gura or to colonize Mars therefore starting an us vs them interplanetary war where both planets happen to nuke eachother at the same time
  15. Lmao could work but don't get walked in on. May be difficult to explain with the drumming and panting. Or just go up into the tall mountans to practice your hyperventilating with the added pressure and temperature difference. Just bring a mosquito net if you don't wanna choke the moment you inhale.
  16. Watch it, it's good. Basically it's about what the title says. It's about the idea that there may be some value in each persective and how to cherrypick the good stuff. Just that he shares some resource it doesn't mean to blindly trust it 100% and still practice discernment. Just like in online forums , 90 % may be crappy but that 10% is really really worth it
  17. @Gesundheit you're conflating " Absolute Truth" with relative. The context of this post is this video : https://www.actualized.org/insights/learning-from-partially-false-perspectives
  18. At first when you pick up radical openmindedness it's an uphill battle. Once your mental house of cards has painfully fallen and you have managed to re-build it , this time having openmindedness, critical thinking and awareness as your main pillars, it becomes efortless and you gain access to that intuition Leo talks about. Yup. That begging phase is certainly "hard" and emotionally taxing. You don't need to "be like this 24/7" Its okay to be temporarily fooled. Just remember what are you guiding yourself by. Again, past a certain point it's automatic and effortless. You don't have to do anything if you don't want to
  19. Learn to prioritize your life and then some chess is alright
  20. You are making an exceptionally valid point. Very few people are epistemologically sharp and discernment can be a real issue. You can be extremely well read and still be a chump.The problem is allways lack of radical openmindedness and critical thinking / real skepticism. How do you know what's true or false? You really don't. And when you really hold this position of " not knowing " as the starting point, ideology flies out the window. And then you can start hypothesizing. It's okay to be temporarily fooled, as long as you keep looking. Your goal is to lock down that very big picture and then the minutia falls into place. But this is already avery advanced step. It helps to have elevated your level of consciousness through some practice or psychedelics. If you want some serious intuition, that's where you get it from. Who knows, maybe one day you may be able to say say that you really are sure of something ??‍♂️ Tldr : the more openminded , contemplative an conscious you are, the better your BS detector is.
