@hyruga I’ve come across a few channels with authorless audiobooks. Not sure.

@The Crocodile Sleep deprivation is extremely dangerous and damaging to the body, brain and nervous system. I would highly advise not doing this as a spiritual practice.

Do you mean actual sleep or a spiritual sleep?

Guide To Post Modernism Part 2.

Anyone here play Balatro? I’ve been playing it a bit here during holidays. It’s an interesting take on card games. You use Jokers, upgraded cards, tarot cards etc in unique ways to increase the value and multiplier of your hands. And more. I personally think this is an example of good game design. Good sound, fun game loop, challenging, etc

@Starlight321 Hey, I might even walk away tbh…

@Leo Gura Is it a good look though? Before you were afraid of getting attacked by scientists. Now do you talk to mr. girl you can get attacked by….

@Leo Gura Refuses to talk to Deepak but will talk to Mr.Girl?

@Leo Gura Honest question. Perhaps it starts as a joke. It's been repeated by a few news sources and I just wonder. I am no political genius unfortunately Leo.

@integral Pierre offers nothing but criticism and immaturity. He has actively poisoned Canadian politics with his toxic behaviour. He may raise some good concerns at times, but it’s clear the conservatives are doing whatever they can do paint liberals as bad and evil. But, I admit a humility here as well as I am not expert on good political policy. I personally respect Trudeau overall. When I see the criticisms of him I see how they come from a place of group think, toxicity, emotionality and ignorance. I have never seen a single thing Pierre says he would do to actually help Canadians except for putting down Trudeau. The way Trudeau handles all this is very inspiring. He is very strong. When Pierre gets in power it’ll be his turn to feel the heat instead of playing victim blame child politics. When he actually has to be responsible and think and do… we will see how well he does. Joe Rogan is a fool. I have no respect for him anymore. Same with Peterson, he is backwards. They are politically perverted and self deceived.

I think this is a great talk/ interview with Brandon Burchard. I think, if you resonate with him and are interested in achieving success in life that he is definitely someone worth learning from. I love his book "High Performance Habits". I hope you find this talk useful and interesting.

@B222 Contemplate it, use prompts generated from AI. Meet people, volunteer, read poetry and spiritual books, study human suffering, connect spiritually to concepts of compassion, love, forgiveness through spiritual experiences.

@integration journey hmm, I thought maybe there was a trial. Personally I prepaid for the year. I’m very happy with the app. But, all I can do is share that enjoy it myself. I see the journal prompts are making a difference in my life, the daily fire, the courses. For me it’s an investment. Perhaps, a cheaper option would be his books or audiobooks to see if he is a coach you resonate with. Or, try it for a month and see. I think it’s worth it if you use it everyday, listen to the daily fire, and do the courses in the app. There are also lots of other great coaches in the app and a variety of topics. I enjoy it, but I’m leery of promoting it here. But, I also think it’s a good service, solid investment if you are looking to live a life of high performance which Brendan defines as, ChatGPT: Brendon Burchard defines high performance as achieving sustained success over the long term while maintaining well-being and positive relationships. In his book High Performance Habits, he emphasizes that true high performance is not just about achieving goals but about excelling and succeeding consistently across various domains of life, without sacrificing health, happiness, or integrity. He identifies six habits essential to high performance: 1. Seek Clarity: Defining clear goals, values, and intentions. 2. Generate Energy: Maintaining physical, mental, and emotional vitality. 3. Raise Necessity: Finding internal and external reasons to perform at your best. 4. Increase Productivity: Focusing on what truly matters and eliminating distractions. 5. Develop Influence: Inspiring and persuading others positively. 6. Demonstrate Courage: Taking bold action despite fear or uncertainty Burchard’s framework focuses on holistic success, emphasizing balance, purpose, and meaningful contributions rather than burnout or a narrow focus on outcomes. —— Pretty sure working with Brandon 1 on 1 costs millions a year. It was reading and applying his principles of high performance that got me from being too scared to perform music live to playing open mic’s and then festivals years ago.

@Human Mint He is great. Check out some of his videos and books. Also, his app growth day is fantastic. I enjoy his Daily Fire speeches.

Went to a spa today for first time. I enjoyed the sauna, hot tub, ice water, and the vibing by the fire. During my integration/ rest period I read The Tao of Personal Leadership by Diane Dreher. Spiritual books are important.

I recently watched the Prime video series called The Boys. It’s very good! Interesting commentary on fame, image, politics, etc with some cool characters and plot.

Who here is interested in escaping wage slavery? I think this is the most important thing I can do right now in my life. I’ve got debt, and I don’t make very much at my accounting job. Ive got to escape being a slave. I just… I really don’t know how I’m going to do this. I also have been thinking of starting to study as a data analyst. I thought maybe I’d be a Qigong teacher but… I’ve been posting some videos and I’m thinking to myself…. “I don’t think I can get rich with this monkey see monkey do business”. My debt is from student loans, and this marketing course (wish Leo had released his video before I walked into that one). Ive got to escape. Life isn’t worth living if this is it. I need to find a way to provide massive value and then be free for the rest of my life. I’m currently contemplating in my journal. Feeling deeply confused. I’m going to take Saturday to just sit to write my own thoughts. Anyone else working toward this? The thing is… I have the heart of an artist. My soul has been murdered by life. Though, I’ve been enjoying my job and the things I am learning. And, I love my practice of Qigong and had liked the idea of being a teacher. I actually really enjoy teaching Qigong. …. It’s not music, it’s not poetry… and, man… my tinnitus. I… I’m not sure if my life is worth living as it stands. I’m confused.

It's interesting.

Relax, it will pass.

Very interesting. I would like to as much as possible cut out neurotoxins, micro plastics and heavy metals.

@coca I would like for people not to think much of me at all who aren't engaged in my work. So, other than obviously have decent clothes, a nice house, high quality food, etc I don't want to buy expensive things needlessly like a Rolex or luxury car. I'd like to own some high quality bracelets but nothing more than a couple hundred dollars. And, for car my dream car is something like a Honda CRV. Something like an Oura ring or high quality mattress, or coaching, or courses, etc seem like where I'd like to spend money because I enjoy that more in life and get a return from it. A Rolex seems like recipe for sadness because who are you trying to impress? The other guy who believes in Rolexes as valuable. If the values really do remain stable, and people are actually able to resell them, that is interesting to me that people do that. Value, is of course relative. I think a better life is to orient around high conscious principles of living the good life. Looking rich, doesn't matter, isn't wealth... Why impress someone with money? The good life does require some level of wealth, and quality things like a house, car, nice property I think. What does excite me a lot is seeing my work have positive benefits on the lives of others... That is some of the greatest joy I don't think buying a Rolex can match for me. I don't need 70 Rolexes but if I could have that in spiritual wealth: Joy, compassion, wisdom, creativity, relationships, etc Boom. Won life .
