If Bezos wasn't considerate of his employes, the employes will definitely consider leaving. If the employees could find better employment elsewhere, they will definitely consider leaving Bezos for another company. But I agree, billionaires have to be more considerate of their employees since its all the work of the employees that made their billions. The government doesn't have money to spend. The government takes money in taxes and then spends it. Imagine that the government said tomorrow that you don't have to pay taxes to the government anymore, but you must donate the taxed amount to charity or people of your choice. Do you think that people would be better at redistributing their wealth rather than sending it to the government? To get out of orange, try to imagine different scenarios of why people in orange act the way they do. Try to see reality from their perspective. When you understand their perspective without demonizing them, you are out of orange. Then you make a green/yellow lemonade.

You are not fully awake yet @Jamesinstantaneous. You posted in the wrong forum discussion group. But I think you are on the right path.

If I were you, I would ask for the lottery numbers...

What are you into? Why are you into some things not into others? Maybe your intuition is telling you what you should be into. PS. Don't confuse intuition with laziness for intuition is the opposite of laziness.

Philosophy is fiction that only philosophers believe its non-fiction. I would like to read spiritual science fiction from Leo. I believe that enlightenment makes people too complacent. Once we have achieved the final realization of the nature of reality, we tend to trivialize all other aspects of the nature of reality. Reality is vast and can be infinitely explored not only in breadth but also in-depth.

The joy is in the journey of becoming, not in the destination of being. Seek joy in the present and drop the projection of the future. The future is not real, only the present is real.

The only way to integrate a stage is to go through the stage. Once you pass through the stage, you integrate it as a part of your being. If you have negative projections on stage orange, that means that you are still missing some aspects of orange. Why demonize him? He started with nothing, then sold books to the world and now he created a global business that can deliver your material wish on a click of a button. He made our lives much easier. Put yourself in his shoes, and imagine everything he had to go through to arrive at the present. Its easy to see the success, but you don't understand his struggles in getting to where he is. Ask yourself, who can better spend their money, Jeff Bezos or the Government? If you become a billionaire one day, would you rather have the government redistribute your wealth or you personally would want to have a choice in which way you would want to spend your money?

Did you take them both at the same time? How does it compare to taking them separately?

This. The next step is to kiss people.

One is Born. One is being born for all eternity. All of creation is the process of giving birth to the One from the none.

Maybe you are losing the focus when you are trying to solve the wrong type of problems?

I predict that this will happen within 2 years. The US is monetizing too much of its own debt. Look at Gold reaching record-high prices. Look at cryptocurrencies reaching new highs. The world is trying to diversify away from the dollar and we are discovering in which currency we can place our faith. Think for yourself. Then you will find what is truly amazing.

Replace dad with God and you have Truth. Notice how many times you said, "I" in your text. Attempt to rewrite everything without the I.

You need to grow your spirit a little bit more. Perhaps then you will learn what counts and what doesn't count. There are humans on the other side of your screen. You can meet them in person if you wish.

You must understand your personality traits. All of us are the best in the world at doing something, but the hardest part is realizing what is that thing. Your intuition should propel you in some direction in life. Maybe its creating art, maybe it is creating absurdity. You must learn what you want to create. Once you learn your direction and realize the things you want to create, you should strive in that direction. While striving in that direction, you should aim to push beyond your limits all the time. For example. If we suppose that you want to create surrealist art and you have some expertise in this area already, always try to push the boundary on what you think you are able to do. When you work on your passion and on the boundary of what is possible, you will enter a FLOW state. The FLOW is your place. Passion + pushing boundaries of possibilities take you to the FLOW. Once you are there, you just GO WITH THE FLOW.

You should be glad if they succeed. You still have lot of ego left in you if you wish for others to fail while you succeed. You succeed when we ALL succeed. You just received lots of advice from many different people.

Give advice when others ask for it. Don't give advice to people who don't ask for it. Give advice when others unwillingly suffer and you believe that your advice could help them out of their suffering.

To think, you must have ideas. Ideas are pointers to concepts in reality. Not to think, you must first have the concept of thinking. Direct consciousness is when you are able not to think without even having the concept of thinking. Direct consciousness is what IS when you have no ideas and concepts about what IS. Hope that makes sense

It is obligatory, but the process does not need to be rushed. You can climb at your own pace. There is nothing but the Self, so the Self has nothing else to focus on. Don't focus too much on the wording or the concepts. In the end, you have to see beyond them. Self-Actualization or Expansion are just words without essence if you don't understand their true meaning.

Keep practicing until the girls' acceptance or rejection of you has absolutely no effect on you. You must become grounded in your own self-worth. You must have confidence in yourself. Girls can smell insecurities from a mile away. They know a guy who is doing this for the first time and a guy who has done it many times before. As Leo said, you should not go straight for the number. You have to build rapport first. The girl has to feel your presence and connect with you before she feels comfortable giving you her number. Keep practicing. Practice makes perfect.

Sociology attempts to deconstruct Freud's super-ego. In that sense, its the science that is a precursor to enlightenment. Biology deconstructs the id. Psychology deconstructs the ego. Sociology deconstructs the super-ego.

You just need the support of enough green people to start the movement. The rest of the people will follow. Most edits and article entries on Wikipedia follow the Pareto Distribution (meaning a small number of participants edit the majority of all articles). Here is a video of the guy who supposedly edited 1/3 of all English articles.

Look at Maslow's hierarchy of needs. The needs on higher levels depend on achieving the lower level needs first. Look at spiral dynamics. To achieve the higher levels you need to go through the lower levels first. When you are building a pyramid, you must build it on the right foundation. Otherwise, when you get to the top, if your foundation is faulty, your life would collapse on itself.

It makes sense, but what is the alternative? The mind has to be filled with concepts. Language has to be imbued with concepts otherwise your words won't make sense. If there were no conceptual structures, no abstract concepts, no language, how can you ask if your ideas make sense? Everything is necessary to make sense of anything.

Money is just an abstraction of value. You spend money on the things that you value. Nobody can tell you what to value because values are subjective. The best way to use money is to find ways to help others.
