  1. The book by G Leonard is an old book by today's standard. It explains the processes on how to be a master. If you read up the life of Leonard, then you can probably tell that he's really a master at his craft and he has mastered his life to a high degree. The book Mastery by Robert Greene mostly showed that he's a good researcher and a good writer. It doesn't say much about his life. The book showed different examples of how other people achieved mastery. Although it contained many examples, the ideas may be scattered and people will still be lost on how to achieve mastery before or after reading the book.
  2. People go to university for the degree or certifications. If you don't need one, you can easily join an online course or private course to see what coming back to school is.
  3. You can read the book Indistractable to conquer distractions.
  4. It depends on your own definition but in mine, there is no number 1. For example, Lionel Messi is highly regarded to be the number 1 footballer in the modern era. But if there is a situation where the ball comes to him at a height and coming very fast, then someone like C.Ronaldo can run faster or head better than Messi so in that situation, C.Ronaldo is actually no 1.
  5. Depends on what you meant by world class. It's your own definition and perception of the word. If you want to be number one most charismatic person in the world, that's going to be near impossible. If you want to be top 5% in the world, that might still be possible.
  6. Use goodreads.com so that you can observe your reading journey. You will always find many other interesting books along the way amongst other good benefits.
  7. Wow I am surprised Leo wrote that almost 7 years ago. His oldest video on YouTube was 12 years ago and he still remembered some stuff he said. Some people cannot even remember what they said a month ago or that they have changed their stance towards certain subject within a month.
  8. Yes being wise is knowing that you only have the present moment. Your past does not determine your future. Or rather, you have no past and no future.🤣
  9. Some of her self help stuff were good but she still looks depressed and sad at times. Looks like she didn't integrate fully to become a full person despite doing so many shadow work.
  10. "Average" actually derives from the word age when people started wondering what's the age of the group many many years back. Everyone of us is 'average' no matter what you accomplish in life. There's not a single human being I know that manages to live beyond 200 years old. Let me know if you know of any real examples.
  11. If I were you, I would contemplate what actually went wrong? Did your company give you work to do but you told them that it's outside of your job scope? Or was your salary so high that they are unable to justify it for you anymore? Anyway it's always great to have some alone time. Time to think of your next moves too!
  12. Still, having experienced poverty or hunger before would make you empathize with people more than when compared to someone who live with a silver spoon.
  13. Sorry to hear about your plight. Many companies are having retrenchment!
  14. The mind always crave for something else. For example, if you are the CEO of a big company and you have lots of tasks to oversee daily or you have to talk to media daily, you may yearn to have a more laidback life. And if you are laidback, you want to be in the middle of something important for the company. If you are a famous actor, you want some quiet time. If you are a nobody, you want to be famous.
  15. He didn't transcend survival. He transcend the survival stage which is stage beige in SD. Big difference. No one can transcend survival unless he becomes God.
  16. Maybe they want to let you go because of your attitude at work or to cut cost. It could be due to your bad relationships with your colleagues. You can read a book called emotional intelligence 2.0
  17. This is what happened when you tried to explain spiral dynamics to an audience whom large portion of them have never heard of it.
  18. The actual book and the audio tapes of the way of the superior man actually have some content which are different (around 50% difference).
  19. Yes you are right Sensors usually get more out of self improvement.
  20. You can learn those stuff from a book. I have taken the course. It feels decent but you are not Charlie.
  21. They are all linked up. If you act and talk positively in real life, then naturally most people will treat you with positively. Then your subconscious mind will also become more positive.
  22. A powerful way is to learn to be grateful for your life. If you are appreciative of life, you will naturally exude out positive vibes and people will like you.
  23. No. Different authors can give different definition for Stage Turquoise. For example, Author A can say this and this. Author B says this and that and Author C says sometime else. Whatever the definition of Turquoise is, it is up to your own perspective to decide, how open minded are you and what's your experience of life. Then you make your own judgement on what's stage turquoise is. Of course I don't deny that there are some who will treat certain author's words as sacred and will trust their words 100%.
  24. All these stages are defined based on your preferred understanding and your own standards. For example, some people consider Tony Robbins as a stage orange guy who is also successful and who also helps many people. Others would consider his actions (feeding America) as Turquoise level since he fed more than a billion people to date: https://www.feedingamerica.org/partners/current-promotions/1-billion-meals#:~:text=The 1 Billion Meals Challenge,Join the challenge today! But then he's only feeding American, not the whole world, not animals. How many people have you fed to date? Then some would consider him at yellow stage since they perceived that he has not reached higher levels of spiritual development. Everything is based on whatever you want to perceive.
  25. It depends on how desperate the person is. If they won a lottery of 100 millions, you think they will work out of survival or out of social status.
