  1. @Preety_India Becareful with all this judgement and hate. It narrows vision.
  2. ya know meat has the highest concentration of creatine... lol
  3. Ah yes but this is a misconception, at the top level of any sports they optimize every detail to get an advantage. Memory becomes important only past 2300+ rating level, before that its 99% problem solving and years of hard work rewiring ones thought process. I believe you but im not seeing it, can you go into detail abit? lol well sure if we define it that way, every system has its own language. The language of music... example. But was ramanujan's intuition/thought process experienced all in the language of mathematics? There is a way to go about with out symbols, is the subconscious mind really operating all in symbolic thinking? If we work only with subconscious thought streams... the bulk of thinking becomes language agnostic, non-symbolic. Only the end result is a idea represented in symbols. Right most people who know multiple language just come from multi-lingual families/environment. There was no deliberate training. Hard to say if learning a new language really gets does gains. I know italian, french and english, got to say it produced the least valuable insights, it overwhelming doesn't beat deep contemplation. (that chess specifically trains) lol... its a challenge to learn how to play music with out a musical instrument, just like its going to be a challenge to refine thinking with out a thinking instrument. Is learning a new language really the best instrument for perspective training?

  5. Some people dont have a inner monologue. They dont think with language, or in the sense of talking to themselves. They dont read or write with any voice in there head.
  6. @The0Self makes sense, the NoFap studies are claiming 40%+ testosterone gains. No idea how valid any of it is, but ejaculating once a day is enough to cause malnutrition, some people cant recoup the lost resources fast enough.
  7. Chess is a competitive strategic critical thinking game, the mind is being exposed to problems to solve not moves to memorize. Language acquisition is not directly training critical/creative thinking skills, chess and music do. Sports trains kinaesthetic intelligence and other lines, languages acquisition does not. They all train different lines of development. We can map out the lines of a development the practice of thing will train. hmmm not sure the latter requires language, Language is not needed to know something. It can be represented in the mind with out language, even with out imagery. What lines of development are needed to be good with languages? What general skills is it training?
  8. @intotheblack yes, okcupid Got to filter the men by match percentage, only focus on the ones that say 96-99% match. Also need to answer a good number of questions, 200+ (its quick). The high match percentage means they answered the same questions in a similar way and so have a good chance of being like minded to you (similar interests, hobbies, sense of humor,,,). Did you try this? Also the different sites are designed around different audiences. Tinder = hook up culture.
  9. If we look at the effect of steroids on body builders, it increase strength and recovery time, to the point they can train twice a day. There recovery is blazing fast. lol not saying to take steroids, but we can see there seems to be a relationship between higher testosterone and muscle recovery. Simplest way to increase testosterone is with NoFap. hmm well simple not easy... Google ways to increase testosterone naturally, will learn all the things to avoid. Step one: Testicals.
  10. Maybe its not all a lost cause, ideally moving to a high consciousness community and finding a guy is easy, but if thats not an option the match making system is a good filter. Going to have better luck finding someone you connect with if there profile sais 99% match then meeting a random guy out in the wild.
  11. Brave browser is compatible with all chrome extensions. Binging blitz games is not going to get you to chess mastery. Its short gratification that trains bad habits. Get on chesstempo.com and grind standard slow tactics until your rating is in the 2400+
  12. wowow AI farming in africa? Now thats going to solve some systemic issues... hes on the right track.
  13. There are many leos, Out doors leo, squirting leo, black shirt leo, white shit leo. Leovolution
  14. Is he doing anything that will last after his death? From what ive seen so far all these good deeds are focused on surface level problems and not addressing the root of the systemic issue. Theres a good chance everything will be undone with time.
  15. Just like i can listen to Chinese with out understanding it. I agree with everything your saying, but its all off topic. The topic is "anyone into languages?" not "is diving into a new culture to self actualize a good idea?" People that focus on learning a bunch of languages are not self actualizing the way you describe. What there doing is closer to rouge memorization and there critical thinking, strategic thinking and creative thinking are all underdeveloped. They value being a walking database. Hes spending all his energy learning how to say the same thing 20 different ways, Hes learning about other cultures at the same time, but its not necessary to memorize a thousand symbols to get these insights. Asking the right questions will get the job done. Hmm ok i am bias, i view all this socializing as 0 value, but for many its top priority. If your life revolves around being a social machine then learning languages is a great idea.
  16. That sound amazing, exposure to new culture is a must for development. What i was addressing was Rosetta Stone type of learning.
  17. What im taking from this is, you've been holding back some heavy profanity. Of course there are things to learn, but its not necessary to memorize a thousand symbols to get these insights. Asking the right questions will get the job done. its always been this way, as children we are trained to convert our raw thoughts into language, a slow and unnecessary extra step. Instead work with the raw thoughts directly. Flow states are language free. Musicians play music with out subvocalizing, chess masters calculate 20 moves into the future in silence. Mastery is in silence. By working with the raw thoughts directly, thinking becomes a rapid sequence of intuitions. Takes practice to move away from verbally asking a question to just knowing the question. Holding the knowing in awareness, instead of the symbols. hmm we are trying to identify what training our mind is exposed to when learning a skill. There is good training and bad training, we need to be aware of what we are exposing our selves to. In the case of language learning, we are training the ability to memorize symbols and repeat them. That's the core repetitive action taken. That's what we are communicating to our mind system.
  18. @At awe If the goal is self development, we can rank the value of learning a thing. Some are better then others. lol chess mastery trains a flexible and adaptive mind. Because nothing else works, you just keep losing thinking any other way.
  19. @Striving for more Its memorization and regurgitation of symbols. Instead of doing that i learned chess and music, which rewired my thought process significantly. Memorizing languages wont develop the mind. I cant see a single benefit for learning another language unless its necessary for your survival. Instead of learning a new language, unlearn the ones your currently caged to, learn to think with out language.
  20. Buy porn with bitcoin in your tesla. Are we talking science fiction here? because its endless. The next big thing is people getting off there computers and going back to playing games outside with there friends, like we did as children.
  21. Always found learning multiple languages redundant, ratter put that energy mastering a skill.
  22. haha i dont know This seems like a good place to start https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=young+dating+older+man My fathers second marriage was with someone 30 years younger then him, just a standard relationship. Seems to be a stage blue trend for the younger girl, they value the stable responsible family man that can provide.
  23. This happens alot, we all heard of this before, how does it usually play out?
  24. We need more people like him. What ever this level of awakening is, its wonderful in comparison to the average unconscious person. This trend of awakened bodybuilders/athlete/celebrities is great stuff. Frank, Conner, Mike tyson...
