how much does IQ matter
how much does IQ matterThat's correct.
Langan is intelligent in his physics/science.
Development can be very lopsided.

how much does IQ matter
how much does IQ matterBecause selfishness overrides IQ.
The ego is in charge. Not the IQ.
And selfishness is not very intelligent.
When your CEO is stupid, it doesn't matter how good your engineering team is. IQ tests measure the engineering team, not the CEO. But the CEO calls all the shots.

how much does IQ matter
how much does IQ matterThe more someone trumpets his IQ score, the less intelligence I see in him.
Like Chris Langan. "World's highest IQ", but still a Trump supporter. That shows you just how little IQ is worth in the real world.
IQ makes you feel smart on paper but foolish in practice, as ego will co-opt that IQ against you. There are some forms of stupidity exclusive to high IQ people.

Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-Thread
Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-ThreadHe does hate Greens.
So he is conservative. But Trump is too selfish to be a serious conservative. Being a serious conservative requires a humility and fear of God that Trump doesn't have.
The conservative part of Trump is the part that hates being moralized to and limited by Green conscience.

Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-Thread
Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-ThreadThe fact that Reality is imaginary doesn't change the dream but you see it for what it is. Imaginary body, imaginary psychedelics, imaginary universe, all states are imaginary because consciousness is a metamorphing universal field which is sovereign to work as it wills. Change doesn't affect being, but being changes at every breath.

observational openers
observational openersA hybrid approach works well: you have a handful of pre-scripted, well-memorized observational openers as backup, and from there you can invent new ones in real time.
If I don't know what to say, I have some old memorized openers and observations as a safety net.

Most Dating Books/Teachers Aren't Exceptional
Most Dating Books/Teachers Aren't ExceptionalNot really. We don't really care about your preferences.
This issue is about understanding. Bias is a lack of understanding. A bias towards women means that women are not being understood accurately, for themselves.
Regardless of your personal preferences, you should be interested in understanding women accurately, for themselves, not for you.
This is not about whether you like strawberries, but about whether you even understand what a strawberry is. Eating and liking strawberries is different from understanding them.

Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point Entirely
Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point EntirelyRight. Which is why what I said doesn't make sense to you. That's not an accident.
No. That's not what I'm talking about.
I've done a lot of socialization. And what I eventually realized is that none of it truly satisfies me. Even when I go really deep with someone, it's still too shallow.
What I'm talking about is a mind that is not satisfied by socializing because it is fundamentally too shallow no matter how good you do it.
Understanding such a mind will be challenging for most humans because they don't have it. Which is the whole point of why I made my blog post. The blog post is actually very profound. The profundity of it might take someone two decades to appreciate. Maybe never if you don't have the right kind of mind.
Depth of mind cannot be about competition, because competition is shallow. There is no satisfaction in beating another human. This satisfaction is for shallow minds.

Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point EntirelyYou are doing it mechanically, thinking inside a box you were taught.
I do not think inside your boxes. Which is why I understand things other people cannot imagine.

Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point Entirely
Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point EntirelyYou guys are confusing things.
There is extroversion and introversion which drives how one relates to other people.
Then there those specific Jungian functions such as Introverted Feeling or Extroverted Intuition. Those are not what I am talking about. I am talking about how the introverted mind or extroverted mind responds to being highly social. The introverted mind gets exhausted from socializing, finding it stressful and shallow. The extroverted mind thrives on socializing and charged itself up like an energy vampire from being around other humans.
You can measure a mind purely on introversion/extroversion scale, without any appeal to intuition, sensing, feeling, thinking, judging, perceiving. Just pure introversion. That's what I am talking about.
A guy who sits at home for a month and is happy not talking to anyone is a pure introvert.
A pure extrovert is a social butterfly who cannot shut up and cannot be alone.
I am a pure introvert. And I know people who are pure extroverts. And then most people are somewhere in between.

Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point Entirely
Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point EntirelyExtroverts literally have shallower minds. That's why they enjoy socializing. That's why the deepest philosophers and scientists are introverted. If you had Isaac Newton's or Tesla's mind you would not care about socializing.
As I said in the post, if you're an extrovert my lifestyle does not apply to you. And that's fine. But there are many introverts who are confused about needing to socialize when it isn't right for them.

Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point Entirely
Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point EntirelyThat's not a judgment. That is generally the case. Which is why teenagers socialize like crazy and old people do not. Because a teenager doesn't understand anything deeper. A typical teenager has the mind of a rat. To a rat going to a party to get drunk is the point of life.
This has everything to do with why monks become monks.

Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point Entirely
Leo's Hot Take on Socializing: Missing the Point EntirelyThat's literally the yogi's/monk's position.
I'm shocked that you're shocked by this.
If you won't wanna be a monk, then don't. It's that simple. Some of us like being monks and we don't need your guilt-tripping.
I literally had 2 people today tell it was their favorite post of mine. Then you tell me the opposite. You people are impossible to please. Anything I say pisses someone off. Maybe that's why I like being a monk.

Feeling ashamed of being smart
Feeling ashamed of being smartI was being cheeky.
That's a low self esteem issue. Which means lack of Self-Love.
Love yourself!
Check out Nathiel Brandon's exercises from Six Pillars of Self-Esteem.
Or just fucking fall in love with yourself. You are beautiful and perfect.
The only reason you are worried about fitting in is because you don't love yourself enough.

Why not test your IQ?
Why not test your IQ?Because my intelligence far outstrips any one-dimensional attempt to quantify it.
In fact, my intelligence is infinite.
When are you gonna realize yours is too?

Do our personality type remains the same ?
Do our personality type remains the same ?Personality is genetic. It doesn't change. What changes is your confusion about your personality.
Personality is not just MBTI, personality is more fundamental and unique.
MBTI is to personality as IQ is to intelligence.

Do our personality type remains the same ?
Do our personality type remains the same ?I remember taking the MBTI personality test 4 years ago and now I took it this year. The result was the same. Mediator INFP-T.
Could anyone answer why or is it constant ?

Does THC increase or decrease consciousness?
Does THC increase or decrease consciousness?Nope. That is false.
Not true for me. I can do 10 days and have insane awakenings every time.
I'm telling you: genetics.
If weed is psychedelic for you, you are in the minority. I am not speculating, this is from experience with real people. I interview people for my retreat and ask them about this.
Weed is as potent for me at 5-MeO-DMT, but lasts 5x longer. I can trip so deep on weed that stoners would not believe me.

Does THC increase or decrease consciousness?
Does THC increase or decrease consciousness?I could take it daily and have crazy high consciousness. But it does have tolerance so daily use it not ideal.
-
Does THC increase or decrease consciousness?
Does THC increase or decrease consciousness?Weed is much stronger for me if I don't use it for a long time. Weed def has some tolerance build-up.
If I don't use weed for a year, it will be insanely strong. Even just one puff.

UFOs Are Here
UFOs Are Here@Alexop You are right that we cannot be 100% sure about an unobserved thing.
But of course if 10,000 serious people say they witnessed a thing, we must take that claim seriously. That doesn't mean we believe it. It just means we start to consider that scenario seriously, and start looking for more evidence.
The notion that all UFO talk is just a hoax or delusion really strains credulity. At some point, denying all the witnesses becomes more outlandish than just accepting that aliens could be flying around Earth.
Do we know for sure that OJ Simpson killed his wife? No. But there is enough evidence there that I would be comfortable convicting him. Could I be wrong? Yes. But so could the skeptics.
At the end of the day, we all have to place our bets. My bet is on aliens.
