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

I'm with you on that I'm slowly changing my self beliefs though

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

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

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:

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

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

Some beneficial concepts: Antifragility Healing with the light- rumi Embracing imperfection

Exactly bro. You're forging a beast ?

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

one aspect of success... (bigger insight) sometimes the hard things are just hard in our mind. like our mind creates more challenging things just psychologically, but its just intimdation. in reality theyre just normal things that anyone can pickup, just apply a good mindset thinking about success, i love leo's analogy of, 'facets of enlightenment' and depicts it using a diamond same way with success.... facets(or aspects) of success... *depicted as a diamond* ... i love the idea of efficiency man bc of the amount of output you can get due to efficiency. you can get more and more output when you get more and more efficiency. like this tetris and productivity are equivalent

super relate man not in pua but im def facing my own challenges in life but personally i see it like this... challenge is what breeds growth. and it eventually breeds into beauty. so when you embrace it, it leads to something good maybe some might say.. challenge is beautiful (because of what comes from it) in psych terms... 'u-stress'

I can speak slightly from a tech pov, I'm somewhat in the culture America is great for tech Lots of great cities for it. SF, Austin, NYC, Seattle, LA I think every big city should have decent tech opportunities I think if your resume is good, coming out of college is a breeze to land a job in tech Also btw networking also allows you to land jobs too. (From friends, friends of friends, network or a fraternity) You can skip steps this way thru referrals So yeah no issues getting job here if ur resume/network is good

Bars

Something something circadian rhythms

Progressives don't even feel woke dude they're just gleaning opinions from society without independent analysis. Dude they're more sheep than they are woke Am I the same? Honestly we probably are all sheep lol Sort of. We can learn thru experience what's good and bad

@Princess Arabia both I think cuz girls get shamed for increasing body count

I agree OP Society puts expectations on men to be strong, stoic, confident, successful, provide, and lead to be loved etc. Like Society used to put stuff on women rite like stay at home, don't have sex etc. Culture defines it rn as toxic masculinity for guys and for girls ppl say it's mysogny But yeah at the same time, you can def find lots of people who will love who you are outside of these norms. They apply to societal thinking, not to individuals

I feel its incredibly high if you make the right moves

@Majed how? Genuinely curious I watch a lot of Hasan and am curious what he gets wrong I'm def noticing that a lot of opinions (on both sides) are more ideological than conscious opinions. It's like people just go as far as their cultures groupthink and that's about it

Chatgpt4: Confidence can stem from various sources, and people may draw from one or more of these to feel socially confident: 1. **Self-Efficacy**: Belief in one's ability to accomplish tasks successfully, often built through past experiences. 2. **Social Skills**: Mastery of basic social interactions and cues, which can make socializing less stressful. 3. **Physical Appearance**: For some, feeling good about how they look can boost confidence. 4. **Preparation**: Knowing the subject matter or social context well can instill confidence in interactions. 5. **Social Support**: A strong network of supportive friends and family can bolster one's confidence. 6. **Achievements**: Success in various domains (academic, professional, athletic) can boost self-esteem and social confidence. 7. **Mindset**: Adopting a growth mindset, where challenges are opportunities for growth, can boost confidence. 8. **Positive Affirmations**: Internal or external affirmations that reinforce one's worth can contribute to social confidence. 9. **Emotional Regulation**: Being able to manage emotions like anxiety or fear can help in feeling more socially confident. 10. **Role Models**: Observing and emulating socially confident people can offer a template for how to behave. 11. **Exposure Therapy**: Gradual exposure to social situations can desensitize people to social anxieties, increasing confidence over time. 12. **External Validation**: Although not a long-term solution, some people initially build social confidence through validation from others, before internalizing it. Understanding where your social confidence comes from can help you nurture and strengthen it further.

Yeah TV personna is pretty fake. The first time i met a bunch of influencers and I was really shocked how different their personality was to the their youtube personna. This goes with more stuff. 'Professional' demeanor where people work. Customer service. Professional demeanor in corporate And also 'polite' society where people on the street and strangers have a nice personna to others

@Leo Gura One more just cuz I'm a stickler lmao Id say its daily, consistent, conscious* practice ?

No clue tbh from a women pov. Maybe if u double down on being platonic you could do it Ik girls flirt subtly so I could see why it gets misconstrued as a sign.. maybe ud need to find a girl that knows how to do this Men generally really are starved in this way tho
