@Leo Gura But isn't Stephen Colbert mostly Stage Green? Why does he ridicule Goop then?

I noticed a common theme among some tribes is that they tend to have a deeper spiritual connection to reality than people in most developed countries. I just can't help but wonder why that would be the case since they, by definition, have much more limitations than people who live in more sophisticated environments. I understand why it would be difficult to pursue spirituality in a busy urban setting, but I'm curious as to what exactly are the things that put these tribes at an advantage. Of course, I'm not 100% clueless, I do have some ideas as to why this is the case. - Perhaps they have easier access to psychedelics in their area - Maybe their simpler lifestyle means they have less distractions - Perhaps their difficult, raw survival, way of living gives them more opportunity to mature as people. But I'm also interested in reading what other people think is the reason for this.

I'm glad you never actually became a science fiction writer like you once said you wanted to be.

@Nahm LOL

Oh yeah, of course! "Living with nature", I forgot about that one.

Aside from Lynda.come, ya' got: - Skillshare - Udemy - Coursera - Google - YouTube - More. . .

If I were you, I'd just keep going. . . how long have you been feeling this way exactly?

It's fine. It's cool.

I think that's pretty cool, actually. Hopefully worth the wait.

Sweet.

I don't post very often, let alone start topics asking for help. So when I do make one, you know I'm feeling very down about something. So just a quick background, I'm a 21-year old guy from the Philippines. I've been unemployed for a year. I've never had a job in my life. And I have received 5 different rejections after interview processes and some of my initial applications have just been outright ignored by multiple other companies. Too vague? alright. . . a little more specifics. I am a fresh grad with a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science. I am looking for either a Game Development position or just a regular Software Developer position would be nice. My main passions are Developing Games and Composing Electronic Music. And even without work, I work on personal projects by myself as a solo creator. I would consider Music to be my main life purpose. But right now, I'm don't feel that I'm that skilled at it yet. So I'm hoping to get a job as a Programmer in the short term because I feel it would be easier since I already have a degree in Computer Science and I have had a lot of practice with programming. I do have ideas in my mind why I've had these rejections in the past and what I need to improve. My resume originally sucked, it doesn't suck as bad now but I'm still working to improve how it's presented. I keep applying at companies I don't feel very passionate about but I can't help it because I feel very desperate to get employed. I find it hard to tell what exactly the company really wants so I keep fucking up the HR interviews despite passing the technical exams. Right now, I'm still living with my parents. They support me very well but not enough to allow me to able to construct the life I really want. I think that's what getting the salary for me is mostly about, being able to live independently from my parents because I've lived with them for 20+ years and I'm tired of their dysfunctional lifestyle. In summary: I need a hug

Very Stage Orange hating on Green

This is not a video. But I still think it's very relevant.

Sweet stuff, Man.

Why can't you use any other Windows DAW?

Man, this is nuts

Why not? In all seriousness, though. Meditation has been the greatest thing I've discovered so far. But you're not going to see it with out hundreds of hours of direct practice. Just do it.

@littleBIG Drop it. Drop the "benefits" chasing. Just do it.

@littleBIG As long as you do it, it counts.

@Leo Gura Obviously, I'm saying this in advance considering the circumstances. Hopefully, you actually read this before you start your month-long meditation challenge. May The Force guide you as you attempt to conquer the Dark Side.

HA! Brilliant!
