You simply decide to stop comparing. Even if they have tons of money, their attention will be shifted to the next goal: A beautiful house by the sea, An airplane, start a family, more houses, more cars, more business, why don't create a business which helps many many people, why don't live near nature, back to basics. Desires are never ending.

I have read 400+ self help books. I do not just read the books, I also read several book reviews + summaries + interviews and podcasts + more. When I first started, my communication skill (together with weak command of English) is probably at 2/10 on hindsight. Right now, I am probably at 6/10. Of course, I gain a lot more other than my communication skill! I am leaving the forum for a few months/years. I need to set things right at work/home/life and I will be back once I set things right. I have learnt a great deal. Thanks to all who have helped contribute to my development!

I have never seen a self help book that said you have to sleep by 10pm. Most only mentioned you must have a good night sleep. So if you miss a good night sleep, make up for it the next day if possible. Don't sacrifice too much sleep as your health will be affected.

Trust/Faith When you have faith, you will also have confidence.

Abraham isn't bad. Better than Rhonda Byrne who wrote the Secret! I have read at least 3 of Abraham books and those were pretty good. Problem is his/her seminar teachings are long-winded and also more complicated than the books! But then her books don't hold all or most of the stuff taught in the seminar I believe.

Please be responsible and precise in what you are writing. A 14 days fast or even a 14 days water fast will kill anyone.

If there's no schools, activities and sports, more people will sink into depression.

I think having a lack of morals is what caused arrogance. Humans or animals should be born with at least a bit of morals. It should be automatic and is called the collective unconscious. I don't have any proof though. So do and think whatever you want. Bye.

A master learns from other masters and continue to learn.

The first one is more of understanding different people's perspectives aka standing in another's shoes. For example, if you are a football player, you also have to stand in the shoes of the club chairman (Who pay you etc) or manager or fans. The second one is more for yourself when you deal with strong negative emotions.

Thanks for the video. I think it depends on the person's level of consciousness. Someone who is very low on consciousness may be very arrogant and insensitive towards other's feelings and they are the ones who need to check on their ego so in those cases, their ego is indeed their 'enemy'. If your level of consciousness move up, you can slowly integrate your ego more with your Self.

Depends on how you see success and how the world see success too. If you do not live a life of honesty and integrity and when you made some dirty money, do you think you can feel peaceful?

It's normal. It means you want to be a teacher or you love to teach.

Not exactly. Sometimes, your ego can grow together with your so called 'consciousness' because you are not always aware. No one can be aware all the time (unless you are supposedly enlightened?). Watching TV, playing games and even brushing your teeth or being on this forum can be an egoic behavior. And if you say things like 'I already read this book: The Power of Now' or 'I already know this', that is an egoic behavior as well. So you may think you have raised your consciousness after reading the book, the fact is that you may be sinking deeper and becoming more egoic.

Read Unlimited memory by Kevin Horsley. He also talks about concepts such a memory palace.

For learning, read Unlimited memory by Kevin Horsley. It talks about how to improve your memory with methods such as Memory Palace.

Everything will be similar. Just different language, culture, religion etc. Like for eg, most people in China do not really know who is Martin Luther King or Napoleon Hill so you cannot go straight into the topics. You have to provide their background first or you provide other examples. Beware of trademarks and of insulting people because you can get sued.

But OSHO said there is no God. There is Godliness.

Do what you love to do and you will have effortlessness? But what happened if what you are doing is not 100% your love and passion or what you are born to do? So you will encounter resistance. What to do when you encounter resistance? Go past the resistance or find another domain which you will love.

To me, it doesn't matter. Napoleon Hill only published Think and Grow Rich from age 54. And he's fighting so hard to teach people on the law of success towards the end. He's still teaching when he was at his 70s. That's dedication and giving back to the society. His writings are also far more superior than most other's. Great man!

Even a road-sweeper is smarter than you at road-sweeping currently at least.

lol everything can be a double edged sword.
