  1. Don't make excuses. Make a budget and do things that fit into it (e.g. day game will always be free) and/or find a way to increase your income.
  2. Watch tone here please - "Show a level of respect & humility. Demonstrate kindness, friendliness, and compassion towards fellow members." (stated in guidelines)
  3. Locked due to low quality.
  4. I have a rule for myself that if I ever become a life coach, it will probably be through an iPEC training, and I have to pay for it myself 100% through an entrepreneurial venture.
  5. You’d be surprised how deep you can go with improv as a study my dad used to teach this actually he mentioned some really interesting old school teachers - I can pass on the name for you, (probably too late for me to text him now where I am) PM me if interested and it’ll remind me to ask him.
  6. Have you read the 80/20 rule? It’s a pretty quick audiobook. What are the ‘results’ of each of the things that you want? Traveling, biking, skateboarding… Would you say the result of these are, is it movement, excitement, adventure (a mix). What are the 20% of all of your hobbies that give you the most of what you want?
  7. Thanks for the share, I start an Accounting/Bookkeeping online certificate at a community college in two weeks. My first year self-employed I didn't do proper accounting and ended up $7k in debt, have vowed never to make that mistake again.
  8. There's a depressant named Kava native to the South Pacific, can produce similar effects to alcohol such as relaxation but does not contain alcohol.
  9. Yeah I’ve had no dual experiences, none of what you’re saying is new stuff, especially on this forum, and has been covered in Actualized.org videos for years
  10. How do you guys make claims like this, surely this is some kind of Buddhist/traditionalist dogma. I have no idea whether or not Leo has reached the levels of consciousness he has claimed to, let alone which one is Enlightenment or God, but his trip reports are pretty exotic indeed, and some more significant to him than others. Is your claim that “basic non duality” is the one chief teaching?
  11. I have been living in Melbourne Australia for the last 2 years, moved home recently to a smaller town about an hour away. i have been bitching and moaning for the past 2 years about how ‘woke’ Melbourne is, and how they can’t integrate any views outside what shows up on people’s TikTok feed. People in Melbourne are obsessed with their sexuality, their pronouns, will jump on any bandwagon that sounds remotely progressive. I realise now how much I took this for granted, it is so rare to have a culture that it predominantly stage green. Where I moved home to is predominantly blue and orange. I realise this is actually a symptom of a culture having its base necessities, and a culture of people growing up in supportive households.
  12. A lot of the advice you get on this forum for stuff like this isn’t really based in experience, you can get a lot of good theoretical ideas no doubt. I would recommend dropping 4-5k on like an Owen Cook course or anybody you genuinely resonate with, you can generally find one or two people in mastermind groups like this who are actually successful on social media and can give you grounded advice.
  13. probably not
  14. just two of them really, but they were very close friends of hers and one she chose to move in with
  15. I appreciate the initial question - basically each issue I have with her friends I reflect in my own behavior in some way. I am noticing my hypocrisy but I don't really know what to do with it. This boundary of "I'm dating you and not your friends" doesn't really work. That's my recent experience at least; it's too big a statement to make to her, in a way its telling her I don't trust her judgment of people. Also to a feminine woman her social circle is literally the most important thing to her in life, and I'm like "meh, I don't like it", it's like kicking over a kids Lego creation. One of my female acquaintances who is married told me after committing to her husband she lost like 3 friends, so perhaps if I stuck it out and just loved her through everything, everything would even out. But like I'm in my 20s, I don't know if that's the best move right now.
