  1. Dude most countries are blue and ethnocentric. They usually only care about their own country
  2. A lot of advice is inapplicable for sure You kind of need to mold your own path based off your own life and the advice that's out there. It's a very individual process What's great for someone can actually be very horrible for someone else
  3. People look for help when they're stuck, it's better to try to find the root cause and go from there. 'Just do it' has its place but it's not fully applicable
  4. @ZenAlex For sure, I think that's the problem with racism actually People group together a diverse set of people and singularly characterize them as one
  5. If anyone's interested in learning about racism toward indian people in the west, I found this creator showcasing some of its manifestations. Its pretty normalized and casual might be pretty enlightening But ya pretty well made video - Just thought I'd share
  6. Mastery Presence Love Health Attractiveness
  7. You can't have too much all at once You can do a lot , you can get far But progress is slow And you need focus It's better to work hard, and gradually build
  8. systems "Systems and workflows are the lifeblood of any sustainable endeavors. I provide my clients with effective, proven workflows, project management systems, my go-to platform/app recommendations, self-evaluation systems" what are systems and models? why i am so perplexed by systems and theory? i think it's because i've been too focused on individual insights without noticing that a lot of insights are actually within a complex set of ideas and thoughts single insights individually have a certain set of value but often i notice i'm not noticing the value of the system itself system: - holistic understanding or theory - well oiled machines - more built for consistency but can lead to innovation insight: - captures important areas - more conducive to innovation
  9. I actually had a very similar insight while on shrooms I noticed my social anxiety was just anxiety and I needed to feel the fear
  10. They deserve it. Seems like the country is trying to distance itself from colonization I read recently that Britain stole $50 trillion during their rule in India lmao
  11. systems systems are quite powerful when you're trying to create progress -> a note taking system makes everything so much easier. you don't have to redo things -> a good guide system prevents you from remaking insights every-time as you can follow the guide. efficient progress -> a morning routine is a great way to start your day perhaps complexity is a better word hm complex system of theories and ideas that make up a whole tiago forte insight -> think like a programmer, instead of doing things from scratch everytime, use what is already available = prepare right. preparing too much leads to way too much wasted time preparing too much little leads to just way too much trial and error get it right I love the concept of efficiency. Jesus people are just sleeping on efficiency. it's way too underrated. in fact. i can probably turn it into an incredible competitive advantage == great interviews to binge - diary of a ceo - jay shetty == check out justin sungs course. see if it's valuable look for scott youngs courses. pull that shit out of the grave

  13. Aspects of personal development - the endeavor itself (the sport tactics, chess strats, how to code) - metalearning (how to build the skill) = How to succeed - study a lot - do a lot - iterate a lot - talk to ppl a lot
  14. I'm with you on that I'm slowly changing my self beliefs though
  15. It's a good question How does one actualize theory? Law of attraction stuff- Affirmations, Mantras, visualizations WOOP/ Goal Setting Creating a new self-image (psychocybernetics) Habits, Habit stacking Productivity systems (tiago forte, GTD) Ultra Learning projects /1% daily Setting morning intentions AM / PM Routines Journalling
  16. Hitler has a list of positives too - made the autobahn - promoted physical fitness and sports - rocket and jet propulsion research which was used for space exploration - made the Volkswagan beetle, a reliable and affordable car for germany why do u like tate so much? dude has a long list of (very bad) crimes rapist, made a course on how to scam people, built a business off scamming people, sex trafficed women, child groomer (bragged about fucking 16 y.o's)., promotes regressive gender norms, moved to romania so he could crime without repercussion. list goes on
  17. updating my favorite teachers: Meta learning: Scott h young, Justin Sung, (Peter ralston?) Productivity; tiago forte, ali abdaal Meta personal development: Eben pagan Emotions: eckhart tolle, david r hawkins + vipassana for emotions. -> add some form of psychotherapy/science based teachings to round For mental health: dr. K, tara brach + gabor mate Relationships: Boundaries - nedra glover tawwab Business: alex hormozi Hormozi is decent but not enough. General, more teachers and industry specific is needed for happiness:
  18. Well-made courses are extremely powerful - solid theory - good practices - ethical conduct - not overwhelming amount, straight to key ideas Good mentors are very helpful - skilled - kind - cuts success curve heavily books, videos, guides at the end of the day, it's about quality
  19. One thing that helps is to surround yourself around like minded individuals. Those people with the intense mindset you speak will very deeply rub off onto you
  20. Some beneficial concepts: Antifragility Healing with the light- rumi Embracing imperfection
  21. Exactly bro. You're forging a beast ?
  22. Yeah he def tries to heal thru brute force. Some of his therapy sessions on stage are kind of done recklessly. It seems he just recklessly pushes the people to open up But particularly his info on healing and letting go, and shadow work are very good. I did his TM a few years ago when it came out first and the theory and practices were pretty damn effective with me He's actually not a bad teacher but some of the shit he does and says is weird
