How do you approach the ethics of dating when you're not ready to commit?
How do you approach the ethics of dating when you're not ready to commit?Going on a date does not equal commitment to an exclusive relationship.
It also matters how you frame your dates. Don't make them too involved and romantic. Keep things light and fun and she won't expect so much.

It makes no sense to earn money/make a living
It makes no sense to earn money/make a livingIt's very important to figure out how you are going to offer value to the world.
Your mistake is thinking of this as "work" or "making money". That's super shallow. You need to think of it as: "What is my art? What do I want to contribute to mankind?" The money follows from your passion.
You will have to make a living in the world no matter what, so might as well do it on your terms.
I make a living by doing what I love most. This was by deep design, not luck.

Respectfully disagreeing with Leo about Crypto
Respectfully disagreeing with Leo about CryptoI do, unless you're doing long term investing.
Many of you here are not really investing, you are trading. You are trying to buy low and sell high, over and over again.

Is a Live Boot Camp Worth It?
Is a Live Boot Camp Worth It?Depends on how much money you make.
RSD bootcamps can be bad because they get so overcrowded and you don't get much 1-on-1 supervision as it's more like an all-around RSD party than a proper bootcamp. But this can vary by location and time of year.
You'd probably be better off taking a bootcamp with a less well-known coach. That way you get lots of 1-on-1 supervision and his full attention. Owen is too popular do that. You have to understand that because RSD instructors are so popular they can be very lazy with their bootcamps. And they also over-charge.
I would never do a bootcamp in the middle of RSD world summits. It's total chaos and you won't get any serious instruction. It's important to select the right time and location of your bootcamp if it's to be productive.
But if you're a total Owen fanboy and you must have Owen, then that's what you're really paying for. It's fan-service.

Cold Approach Therapy
Cold Approach TherapyMost of my nights out were with wingmen. Maybe 90-95%.
Solo gaming is real hard when you start. But it grows you the most if you can muster the balls to do it.
If you want to seriously learn game, you must look for experienced wingmen who you can learn from.

How long for pickup results if naturally already decent with girls
How long for pickup results if naturally already decent with girlsWhat do you mean by results? Sleeping with one girl? That is so random it could happen anywhere from 1 to 500 approaches.
The only result you should be interested in is building a solid skillset. Which takes 2-5 years of constant approaching.
If you're not gonna do 1000 approaches you shouldn't even start pickup.

Cold Approach Therapy
Cold Approach TherapyStop comparing yourself to others. They are not you.
If your looks are really good or you are highly extroverted then getting girls is much much easier.
You have to work with the cards you've been dealt.
You just have to accept that some guys will get girls way easier than you, and such guys will never understand your struggles. So don't listen to them.

Cold Approach Therapy
Cold Approach TherapyStop thinking about it, stop worrying about it, and just commit to going out and approaching people. Their reactions are irrelevant.
There is no mental trick here. The only trick is to force yourself to go out and approach every week, whether you want to or not. If you try to be too clever here, you will end up not taking any action. So the solution is not more thinking, it's action.
YOU CANNOT THINK YOUR WAY INTO SKILLS WITH GIRLS. You must go in the field and take the blows. All the shit that will arise, you will deal with as it arises.
Pickup requires courage.

Cold Approach Therapy
Cold Approach Therapy@Rishabh R Just the discipline you will need to go out every weekend for 2 years straight will grow hair on your balls.
And much more will come along the way.
For example, most of guys have zero sense of humor. You don't know how to crack to hilarious joke. That will take you 2 years to learn.

I am losing all my interests and passions and i am scared
I am losing all my interests and passions and i am scaredI'm not. Because I already went through that.
I spent 2 decades building my life. Many of you guys haven't.
If you are 18, you need to spend at least 10 years grinding to build up a decent life. But realistically more like 20 years.

I am losing all my interests and passions and i am scared@Asia P You must be careful not to turn spirituality into a bypass or form of escape from managing your survival and life.
If you struggle to get dressed, what good is your spirituality?
Spirituality is good, but at your age you need to put a lot of time and energy into just mastering survival. Build a decent life for yourself. Don't just sit around hoping that your life will get great all by itself. It won't. You have to put work into it.
Be careful about neglecting core areas of your life like family, relationships, career, building skills, sex, friendship, finances, diet, fitness, health, etc. You have to invest energy into all these in addition to whatever spiritual work you do.
It's very hard to be happy if you neglect all those areas and only do spirituality. You can get yourself trapped that way.

Sadhu smokes 5meo dmt
Sadhu smokes 5meo dmtMeans nothing.
Smoke it yourself and that's all you need to know.
Why are you asking some naked man in the jungle to validate God for you? That's the mistake.
Also, comparing yourself to full time yogis is foolish. You are not that guy and probably never will be.

Cold Approach Therapy
Cold Approach TherapyThere is no substitute to cold approaching and interacting with 1000s of women. This process will grow you in so many ways.
You don't even understand what you're missing.

Cold Approach Therapy
Cold Approach Therapy@IronFoot You are looking at this the wrong way.
Learning game is not about chasing for sex. It's about growing yourself into a powerful man and an adventure.
The main benefit is not the sex you have but how strong you become.
-
Cold Approach Therapy
Cold Approach TherapyOnce you develop a lot of experience and skill, you won't need to start from scratch every time.
You should plan to invest at least 2-5 years into learning game. Then you will have the skill set.
You should also seriously consider moving to a city with a good nightlife and day game opportunities.

RSD free tour LA December 8-10th Owen and Julien
RSD free tour LA December 8-10th Owen and JulienIf only you guys knew how sloppy and lazy these bootcamp instructors are. The amount of correction they give is minimal. If you wanna learn game you will have to learn to diagnose and solve your own problems. Don't expect anyone to solve them for you. You can't buy your way out of this problem. Learn the theory and then you can diagnose yourself.

Are psychedelics ULTIMATELY a distraction?
Are psychedelics ULTIMATELY a distraction?Haha
Nothing beats DMT. It's impossible to communicate how profound it is. Infinite profundity. If things got any more profound you'd be dead.
If I took any more I would die of Love and never return.

Are psychedelics ULTIMATELY a distraction?
Are psychedelics ULTIMATELY a distraction?I have not found any methods that work well for me other than long and tedious-as-fuck full-time meditation retreats.
Realistically you need 100 hours straight of uninterrupted mindfulness concentration.
But even then, you will fall out of that state once you stop the retreat. Changing one's baseline is the hardest thing.

Getting into Spirituality Too Early (A trap I fell into)
Getting into Spirituality Too Early (A trap I fell into)I would like to share with you guys a trap that I fell into in my life; getting into spirituality too early.
When I was 23 years old, I graduated college and had an existential crisis. I didn't know who I was outside of my college self and didn't know what to do with my life. I started to dabble in the self help field, watching lots of Leo's videos and reading some self help books. I also got a job at a Telecommunications company (which my mom basically handed to me I might add) and I started working long, stressful hours. The first couple of years flew by.
When I was 25, I decided to quit and spend all of my money on traveling and self help books, I coasted by for a couple of years, living off of COVID unemployment money, money that I had saved up, and some odd jobs. This is when I started to get into spirituality. I read all of Jed Mckenna's books, The Book of Not Knowing, Conversations with God and I listened to every one of Leo's videos on Spiritual Enlightenment. I was blown away by the material and am still fascinated as to what this state of consciousness is and how I can get there.
This seems like a nice trajectory that I've taken, but there are a couple of major problems with it. I know now that I was using spirituality as a distraction from the authentic desires that I held for creating a successful dating life and also finding my life purpose. These spiritual pursuits were not an authentic desire of mine, they were merely being used to avoid the emotional labor that it would take to tackle my dating needs and to find my life purpose. Sure, I now have a nice baseline understanding of what enlightenment is and what techniques can be used to get there, but now at 28 I am basically starting from ground zero in the dating world and I have found my life purpose, but am at ground zero in terms of building this life purpose into a successful career that can earn a sustainable income. As an adult, the evolution of a man's desires should go more or less like this:
1. Get success in the dating world
2. Find your life purpose and create success within it
3. Pursue spirituality / enlightenment
Can you pursue all three at once? Yeah sure, probably.. just be careful that you are not half assing the pursuit of them. If you are going to pursue something, then fully lean into it. That is why it is more ideal to pursue one fully and then move onto the next.
Unenlightened people can be described as living in the dream state, enlightened people have exited the dream state and couldn't go back in if they tried.
Yes, I admit it, I am dreaming, but I am enjoying every delicious, juicy, painful, anxious moment within this dream... and until it is an authentic desire of mine to leave this dream state, I will not pursue it... and neither should you.
I hope someone gets something out of this and best of luck to you all.
