@Rilles By the fact that he was running for president, it's a very tough task, and he has to take into consideration many different factors: his emotions, physical health, mental health, the many people around him, the tasks and how they play into the bigger picture etc.. I still don't think you get the gist of what I'm trying to say about routine planning, you yourself probably have yellow routine planning, if not then definitely someone older than you. You start off a little kid, RED planning your days based on impulse (not planning them at all). BLUE Then you move towards wanting to achieve goals in your life so you start off by making rigid routines based on norms. ORANGE Then you start to find things that suit your needs more and plan your day more strategically. GREEN you are tired of being strategic and it isn't fulfilling you so you start going off of your emotions. YELLOW Your emotions are to be considered but shouldn't run you instead integrate emotions with strategy.

@Rilles Yeah yeah, In agreement with you that bernie shows green development when it comes to that, but in the Line of "Routine Planning" he probably has yellow development.

@d0ornokey Yeah exactly, it helps if you go through the obstacles of each stage so that you can come up with a new workaround.

@innerchild Logically yes you'll need to have friends and relationships, but I don't know for sure, you'll have to figure out yourself how you can move up the stages in the lines of friendships and relationships.

@Moreira In my opinion, femininity is the natural state, masculinity is developed (masculinity is an autistic spin on feminity). Look for ways to develop your masculinity. That being said It's more than acceptable to be a feminine man. I highly recommend this thread on spiral dynamics, it can help you map yourself out.

@Nahm The first line repeated back to you.

@Rilles Careful, you judge Bernie as being absolutely Green, but what makes you think his routine planning development isn't Yellow?? Besides Green planners can be productive, If they are emotionally driven to create projects that's what they'll work on and get it done.. In my opinion, routine planning is something people mature in very fast because they face the obstacle of balancing being productive, optimal relaxation, and happiness daily. I wouldn't be surprised if a 23 year-old had stage Yellow development in routine planning. You must realize some areas in life require you to mature much faster or suffering is a result. Fundamentally the only reason you mature through these stages is because the current way of operation starts to cause suffering.

@Rilles You can find areas or "Lines" of life yourself that others haven't thought of before. This one I thought up myself. I didn't see Ken Wilber, Leo, The SD guys, or anybody else talk about it, maybe they're aware of it, but they haven't mentioned it, so I discovered this for myself. If you discover any other areas or "Lines", do PM me or come back here to write about it. Take care

@Rilles Routine planning: How do you plan your day? BLUE Are you religious and rigid about it? making arbitrary tasks that everyone just does? ORANGE Or are you doing to look for yourself and see what tasks suit you and make a methodical plan? GREEN Or are you going to just going to lay back not plan anything and let your emotions guide what you want to do? YELLOW Or are you going to create the most efficient possible day by integrating your both emotions and methodical planning.

@VerballyHazardous Yes, the very fact that you know they would experience this terror shows that you yourself are naturally inclined to react that way but instead you decided to outgrow that reaction. Umm to me this creation (our reality) in perspective, is just as weird and bizarre, the ego likes to cling to it though and "think this is the norm". In my dreams, the reality there, in perspective, is much more shocking and outrageous compared to the waking experience of reality. Dream realities are like those images yet I don't feel that sense of terror and that might be because the ego isn't so strong in my dreams, not sure though.

@VerballyHazardous Seriously? Could you elaborate so that I can learn to see the same thing

@Red-White-Light Sure there is a genetic component, but the trigger is anxiety, its because your anxious you activate that genetic trigger, it's not that you've got this genetic thing going on and that's just life.

@Red-White-Light Ah I see, you gonna also ask if I get vomit on my sweater from time to time? And If its mom's spaghetti that's causing that?

@VerballyHazardous Are you really? Does that not scare you shit-less? IMAGINE THAT WERE REALLY THE CASE

@Espaim Own self-bias thinking I'm more developed, or less developed.

@Cykaaaa Shhhh. Tomorrow, Today that's a duality.

So much love.

Visuzalize Haha

@Red-White-Light Nope, what is the line of thought that led you to ask that? Very curious.

@AlphaAbundance Haha, if anything don't masturbate, excess masturbation, especially for an hour, will completely screw your mental ability. I don't think that's good for developing a very cognitively heavy skill such as visualization.

@Flowerfaeiry Put 2 and 2 together, you mentioned that the only other reference you had was that guy and then you proceeded to explain how the experience of love wasn't necessary so I assumed the "only other reference" didn't have that experience of love. I'm not telepathically communicating with you, don't worry haha! I'm so happy you had this experience and shared it, it certainly has opened my mind more. I recommend, if you have the time to check out some more of Rupert's work, It will make you feel empowered that such phenomena are recognized not only by so-called "Hippie woo-woo" people but by legitimate scientists as well.

@a e l i Make a dream board (Search for "dream board" on the forum and read Nahm's thread), exercise, cold showers, Wim Hof, quit frequent masturbation and porn use, go on Badoo and chat up some singles near you since you cant IRL. After the coronacrisis you should aim to make some friends. Be positive and persistent it will work itself out, it might help to get a social job like a waiter, or a job in sales. What you ultimately want to do is to have goals that you authentically want (not relating to societal norms) and be pursuing them.

@WhatAWondefulWorld ❤️❤️❤️

@WhatAWondefulWorld You are not alone. We all go through this to some to a degree, some more than others. Just know that this is temporary. Things will get better in time. If you would like to private message me to talk, I'm here for you, most of us on this forum are.
