  1. @Keryo Koffa Very different. A quarter million dollar status symbol vs self medical lab on my finger that if used properly could improve my health for the rest of my life. But, if your pointing to relativity in how people spend money, sure. Health is one of my top values, and 500 dollars is a small investment to make. When I buy cars, I will not buy the most expensive car, etc. "I am gonna work my ass off for the next 10 years so I can buy an Oura ring" or, "I am gonna plant trees for one day and buy an Oura Ring". Very different. If this ring helps me make positive changes in my life, increase productivity and focus it could earn me a million dollars which I will not waste on a fast car when I can only go the speed limit anyway. I am more of a used Honda CRV kind guy.
  2. I make mistakes and learn from them. Admit when I am wrong.
  3. Books and tea make me happy
  4. @Javfly33 It’s good to have someone who inspires you. I read a book called “The Millionaire Next Door” so, I guess my ideal millionaire lifestyle isn’t about Ferrari and mansions. But, something more quiet. I think that everyone is différent. Good luck!
  5. @Javfly33 Hey, I admit I don’t know how he made his money. I am actually a big Fan of How To Beast who is a fitness guy as well. I don’t think those things make you bad. But, at the same time… if that attracts you, and is authentic to you, go for it man. Trust your own intuition on this. I’m just sharing my perspective at this time. Honestly, ignorant of this guy. So, I’m sorry. But, be really careful with flashy show offs. It’s often not what it seems…
  6. @Schizophonia What are you on about? Are you applying Frued?
  7. @Javfly33 Notice how people who drive fast cars could.. 1. Rent them for videos… 2. Buying a car means you don’t have the money because you spent it on a car. Look, if you enjoy fast cars go for it. But, if you think it’ll make you happy… which, is I think what we truly want when we pursue success don’t think it’ll make you happy. The foolishness, and we are all different but as a general rule, the foolishness it thinking a fast car will make you happy. In reality, most people do not care. Status symbols are not wealth, they are not success, and they are not happiness. Buying a fast car, after 10 years a hard work, scamming others or whatever a lot of these social “successes” do… is extremely shallow and generally isn’t the same thing as authentic success and happiness which requires a deeper cultivation and purpose than making money and buying stuff to show off… When I see someone showing off a Ferrari I cringe. I mean, you will be successful. I believe you’ll achieve whatever you wanna do.
  8. @LoseYourvelf huh? @Javfly33 You Will be successful.
  9. @Javfly33 Even if it is true who cares? Anyone chasing a fast car is inherently foolish and what’s the point of sharing it on the Actualized forum? How did he get rich? Is he really rich?
  10. @LifeEnjoyer I’d say focus on your job. Changing bosses and coworkers about this stuff is outside the domain of why you have that relationship.
  11. Expand beyond, while including spiral dynamics into integral meta theory. It’s funny, I was listening to an audiobook a coworker had in in the truck. It was describing a native tribe and described stage red exactly. Of course, they weren’t taking about stage red, but they were stage red so they fit that description.
  12. No. You need a toolbox. When fixing a house if you only use a hammer you'll break things. Or, wont be able to fix everything.
  13. What would a professional way be to approach this? Also, can you try to tighten up the quality of your threads? Careless lack of punctuation and swearing... Not a great look.
  14. Crocodiles all the way down
  15. @melchangelo She basically says at the end to do market research, find a niche that has demand and create a valuable offer…
  16. @Wizardking Why do you want to write a book?
  17. Or maybe that’s the depth of the self deception keep God thinking it’s not dreaming! Hehe This logic you think makes sense doesn’t actually.
  18. @zurew Our soldiers go to war to protect our country and fight for freedom - which entails doing harm to someone… Is that a good or bad intentions. —- You make good points! —-
  19. @Yimpa Exercise which helps deepen mindbody connection a release stress. It's embodiment.
