You should also consider nuance in india as well. There are many safe areas within india - esp in nicer areas in cities I've been to india several times and never witnessed harrassment either (lived there for 1y+). But i also dont know what its like from the pov of a non brown woman so theres that I also have read abt white women that live in india that that say that they havent experienced harrassment Edit: I also do recall now, without doxxing details, i was in an area of where there were around 1k indian people and around a dozen non indian women, and at least from hearsay, i didnt hear of any incidents of harassment. So theres that

no moderation is dangerous. it lets bad characters run loose without repurcussion. it will bring the quality down very low

Bc theyre mostly wrong

unconditional non-judgemental awareness to whatever arises both internally or externally

@Ramanujan i feel you - i have similar goals. have you tried to implement anything from mastery/success principles? im curious what ur experience with it has been so far you need something to be mastering otherwise the principles won't really work

@Ramanujan Okay got it thank you. What is your goal with mastery and these books? Like what result are you hoping from it?

@Ramanujan what does mastery mean to you though? to me it means just putting a lot of time into a craft before being able to reap the rewards. like putting 10-20k hours into a career to get good fruits for example and there are a few good tactics in the book that you can use for that

@Ramanujan i dont choose, they are both part of my theory. Both have great ideas. Mastery i like: 10,000h rule + general direction to mastery for success Deliberate practice Finding love and passion in growth and nuance Success principles i like: Visualization, surrounding yourself with successful people, developing incredible self belief, developing focus on one endeavor

dawg youve been asking this same exact question for 4 years now from 2023 experience is the best book for success (real talk) sorry ;; js - you technically dont even need books for success. most successful people dont read books on success. js. their knowledge is majority from mentorship + action

i really didnt like emeralds feminist ideas. particularly i remember when she would pigeonhole everyone in pua as a misogynist. And it was really difficult to get her to see past her generalizations and engage in good faith with people's ideas. She was incredibly paradigm locked. This was 2-3 years ago tho maybe she is different

I feel there are way too many topics and not enough focus. Like personal development is sooo wide and I think people end up becoming generalists rather than specialists

a tonn of fast and quality work, on the right type of work, surrounded by people who are good at that work while hopefully having some resources and competitive adv on ur side

@integral Ive also noticed state being very helpful. For me ive noticed it as a combination of Intense self trust + desire to win + flow

Powerlifting, finance, socializing and reading books Im going all in on finance soon following leos video on good things take time so might have to lighten the load to focus

All aboard the new server 🚉

honestly i dont see how you would break wage slavery from this. the only thing i see work related is investing in ETFs and 30 mins of writing a book but that has a super low ceiling unless you invest a lot. it seems good for health but breaking wage slavery will come from networking + work related tasks (business, projects, certs, degrees, networking) you need to be results focused, not routine focused id minimize your routine to 20% of this and just be all in on results instead. as in, what business do you want in 6 months and what results do you want and break that down into 1 month chunks. sorry, im not coddling you or being nice. for breaking wage slavery particularly, that is no joke it will take high intensity, highly intentionally work for years. like 5000 hours but if that is not your highest priority than ignore my advice > the main goal is to increase focus, train the subconscious, break free from wage slavery, have a healthy mind and body. developing focus will happen naturally and as a byproduct by focusing on whatever task is on hand. training the subconscious i dont think you need more than 10-15 mins a day. healthy mind and body, id keep those habits

On the side Go all in on making money Trust me I wasted a lot my younger years doing meditation, chasing enlightenment, personal development work I dont think its right for a lot of ppl. Remember, leo pursued meditation after 15 years of working on getting money

thats a good point. There might be some interconnection with power. If you have some form of power - people viewing you as evil, is irrelevant

Well one is your reputation suffers. If your reputation suffers you cant treat people as disposable because they don't trust you And then they become the opposite of disposable

Not getting into tech and joining google. I grew up in the tech diaspora kinda wish i wasnt so rebellious. I also had ivy league schools pretty free too. If ur parents r smart, listen to ur parents.

A very strong vision helps. That you really want more than anything. And then having very high confidence that you can do it Then implementing the right habits. That help you manifest that There are some good productivity courses online that you can try. Just make sure they are quality ones

@Elliott appreciate it. I dont see it changing back solely bc musk has power over the media rn. But if someone is able to regulate musk then there might be hope. It's moreso on me to adapt to the new circumstances. But ty for the kind words

@Apparition of Jack as someone with firsthand experience as an indian-american (born in raised in america), utterly shocked at how quickly perception changed towards my diaspora. Many days i dont even feel people even consider me american anymore. It sucks I was literally so pissed about the model minority myth a few years ago and how racist that was. But now im like jesus that is 100x better than whatever shit we got now ☠️. Get the model minority myth shit back lol 😮‍💨 For indians particularly, the way i understand why the immigration debate went viral is bc: Indians are a minority but unlike black&hispanic people, the left doesnt have the white savior complex about them bc of their socioeconomic success. So the left doesnt care so much to defend them. So theyre an easy target to hate on I did notice there has been a mild backlash to the backlash but it's very little. Im somewhat concerned for the diaspora it feels like its in danger

I found mindfulness actually increases my creativity. Whenever i play video games i sometimes do a mindful meditation. And my creativity literally feels unlocked when i do it. I find moves and do cool shit that i usually dont do - plus i get into flow much quicker I do some variation of shinzen youngs see hear feel, with the intention of maxing out my mindfulness Particularly i think it works for me becuase im unfortunately quite stifled, so it gets me out of my head, so its significant for me. So results may vary

Id love to live in a vegan society
