Doesn't sound super hard tbh.
Actually way smarter and socially safer than cold approaching half the campus.
Harder to cold approach and hit on girls directly than invite them to some campus event.
This is what I would've done if I had a sales and marketing background like I do now. But back then my mind was so myopic because all I did was watch pickup content.
There's more plausible deniability by inviting to events and infinitely higher social proof.

Also the J vs P type in mbti pertains to a certain discomfort with ambiguity.
P types feel comfortable without needing a final answer whereas J types need the final solution or to arrive at something - certainty vs. openness. Absorbing data vs. finding a solution.
I've seen charts that show INTP is the most intelligent followed by INTJ.
I think that IQ tests do in a sense reward fast thinking that reaches a conclusion but there are people that process more data but don't necessarily filter well. There's tradeoffs to each style.
INTPs I subjectively consider more intelligent because they don't close themselves off to information and better with ambiguity and cognitive dissonance. INTJs better for execution.

5 hours ago, Leo Gura said:There is no doubt that learning all the stuff I teach will significantly raise your intelligence. Not IQ but Intelligence.
Humanity has no idea what Intelligence even is. But I do. Not perfectly, but more than anything science understands.
Intelligence requires mastering and jailbreaking your own mind. Intelligence is when the mind sees through its own imaginary finite limits.
Imagine becoming so intelligent that you figure out that you are imagining birth and death. That's the true measure of Intelligence. Not these silly little IQ tests invented by scientific fools.
I don't doubt any of this. A guy like Ben Shapiro can have a 150 IQ and if anything all that thinking obstructs his ability to see clearly like a sage would.

@Sandroew Math is not that hard especially Calculus. People get lost in the crazy long equations which makes it seem more nebulous than it is conceptually.

I feel like for the most part I take things less seriously and just try to enjoy the ride, the steps along the way.
Much more gratitude.

It's an impressive feat from a production standpoint.
But in terms of psychological depth and original storyline there is not much there.
Prints money though…

2 hours ago, Someone here said:Argentina tried to be tough but man there was no level to the match whatsoever . The stats speak for themselves.the Spanish players have way better quality than Argentina players.
This is why I thought in the past that Messi should’ve retired from international football right after the World Cup 2022 so that the last scene would be of winning instead of losing .Meh they were literally like 15 minutes away from a chance at winning it in penalties.
Quite miraculously that it took that long for Spain to score but Messi was 15 minutes and a penalty shootout away from another World Cup trophy.

I feel like when you are not respected any real intimacy or trust is not possible.
Because your perspective is basically invalidated.
Love is much more nebulous and complicated.
Especially with human ego, attachments an so on and so forth.
It is very easy to detect the presence or absence of respect.

12 hours ago, Ulax said:Weren't you the one criticising game as shallow. How does that makes sense when you're a freaking salesmen lol
And ofc its gonna be way easier to chat people up if your career resembles the exact thing you're trying to do.
I was a salesman. Did door to door and call center.
Yes and it went against my nature and I did abysmally doing d2d sales. It was eating me alive. You do have to be a cold blooded sob to be a high level salesman. I loved to interact, joke around, and have fun, be playful with strangers, but when it came to actually making sales for products it felt very transactional and fake.
So yes doing cold approach and cold sales helped get over those fears and is an invaluable skill.

@glassfire Achieving samadhi during meditation and relasing tension during breathwork makes you very aware of physical tensions throughout the body-mind system.

@LordFall Dude the reason I always struggled with IG is because I have a small circle and even the people in that circle are fairly reserved so they may not even leave a like.
I know that not everyone is like that so its just a matter of meeting more people but in that in-between period where you are building up is it fine to do the fake it till you make it approach or just own that you are in a sense a relatively unpopular individual?
Believe it or not I've done years of sales but I mean it's not difficult to chat up strangers you don't know. There is not really a concern of social reputation in cold outreach similar to cold approach.

If you ever see the matrix and Neo is waking up and they are on the computer on the other side and they are like, we are loosing him. Its like that.
This one didn’t click for me until just now… very good example!

I’ve been drawn to intense breathwork, pranayama, and Kriya Yoga, plus exercise as grounding practices. While I’ve tried psychedelics before, I’m now quite wary. We’ve seen cases like the recent fitness influencer where things went wrong (and thats only because he was internet famous). Plenty of people this happens to that we’ll never hear about.
Even without psychedelics, deep spiritual work has turned my life upside down in my late 20s/early 30s. I wasn’t psychotic, but I struggled with grounding and bridging those insights into everyday material reality. I now see why traditions emphasize finding a good teacher — it’s easy to get lost going solo, even if some dogma exists.
For these reasons, I’m leaning toward a gradual path right now to keep spiritual growth and ordinary life aligned. It’s not a race, and sometimes going faster ends up being slower long-term.
Curious about others’ experiences with clearing energetic blockages safely. What practices have helped you integrate without losing your footing? Thoughts on psychedelics vs. slower approaches?
-
I like the idea of this conceptually lol
I would be wary of depending on ket for this purpose but achieving similar results even if more gradually is a great idea.

I think mostly it's about the embodiment more than anything.
Certain women find that deeply mysterious and intoxicating.
I think talking about it though is too much for most people -- especially the most radical spiritual ideas because of the metaphysical and spiritual implications.
Better for her to feel like you're from another universe than to see what's under the hood.

Pickup is so fucking shallow and should be thrown in the trash unless you want to waste years trying to use inauthentic strategies which will rob you of the ability to authentically connect to other humans.

Such as his beliefs as being the chosen one to enlighten humanity and that the government was in on it and so forth… such and such.

@Girzo There are different levels of bipolar.
I think full blown mania probably is not a great thing but I don't have experience with it.
Also...
From Gemini: Elon Musk has not publicly shared an official clinical diagnosis of bipolar disorder or hypomania. However, several psychiatrists, mental health professionals, and biographers have speculated that he exhibits traits associated with hypomania—such as extreme energy, impulsivity, and a reduced need for sleep.

52 minutes ago, OBEler said:@Leo Gura but he was definitely on a power trip. He felt probably invincible.
Well that is the case with bipolar disorder which I have.
I don't necessarily think it is purely pathological though.
There is a truth to that sense of anything being possible. The problem I guess could be if you start to put yourself and others in danger. I think most people live in a state of fear and limitation. This is also a false premise. Yet the over confidence of mania can be read as an issue.
That state of confidence is intoxicating and I think that most of society is afraid of it. At the same time you do need to keep yourself grounded and responsible. Your behavior does have consequences.
Personally I think things like bipolar are forms of genius.
But if you do not have it balanced then it creates massive issues.
Look at Kanye West. He is bipolar and his discography is legendary and conveys that confidence as well.

It is difficult to get good mental health treatment.
Most mental health practitioners are heavily paradigm locked.
Spirituality and western psychiatry do not mesh well at all. They are orthogonal.
Something more holistic is needed.
I understand you must say these things from a liability perspective but things are not so clear cut.

So sad that he went from this:
To whatever psychosis thing he had going on the last few years.
Is it a bit "douchey" or whatever to take off your shirt for content. Sure but it is innocent and lighthearted. No bad intentions.
Rest in peace man.
May your soul get what it needs.

@thierry Law enforcement is in the stone ages when it comes to dealing with mental health emergencies.

3 hours ago, Leo Gura said:I am worried that he will end up like Connor Murphy without a serious intervention.
These social media antics turn deadly. Being a dancing monkey for social media fame is very toxic to the mind.
I think he's a good kid with a touch of the 'tism.
Abandoning social media to live like a normie and live a normal life will be extremely unappealing compared to the access he has now.
The only option is to reimagine and rebuild his entire brand around a philosophy more healthy than black pill.

I mean he could just put it into AI and get the gist. That's the value of AI nowadays.
I will watch it tomorrow while I'm on a several hour long drive.
I've done like 24 hours of dry fast but not much longer than that.
