Realms of Wonder

Leo, I emailed support twice over the last few months with no response so I wanted to bring it up here. I bought the LPC long ago, 2018 I believe, and recently my girlfriend realized it was a good choice for her and I wanted to buy it as a gift. What I didn't realize is that since I used the same PayPal account, it just added it to my account and charged the full price. I would like a refund as she ended up buying it with her own PayPal account. If you need any info from me just respond below Warmly, Paul

People are already responding to some of the points but one that I want to focus on is him paying for lessons that don't happen. If you had to cancel, that is one thing, but if he cancels, its common in some industries to be paid at least part of what the original fee was. I used to work as a Massage Therapist. if they canceled within 24 hours there was a cancelation fee of like, 30-40%, but if they canceled right before they had to pay for the whole thing. And yeah, it sounds like he isn't seeing you in a totally professinal light. At the end of the day, if you want to report your taxes, that's your choice whether he agrees or not. I would either start invoicing him for it or just keep good track of the cash you are receiving so you can report it properly come tax season.

what a great reference haha Just finished breaking bad for the first time a few days ago after watching Better Call Saul

@jacknine119 I wouldn't stress over it too much. maybe its not the season for friends. Maybe the season for friends comes after you have become someoneworth being friends with, a high caliber person, financially free, developed internally and externally. When I began personal development nearly a decade ago I kind of accepted that I won't have any great, deep friendships till much later because I need to develop myself, create direction, and become the kind of person that would run into the kind of friends I wanted to have. so, at 28, I still don't really have any AMAZING friendships, but more and more, its clear that I am becoming the kind person that could HAVE those relationships.

A few stand out. 1. Leaving a cult, choosing authenticity over conformity. 2. Moving to a new city alone at 19. 3. Giving up a comfortable life in that city 6 years later to move to West Texas with little savings and no job lined up.

Not sure if you're looking for feedback or not @Leo Gura but it may be worth the time and effort to invest in a better quality lighting, camera and microphone setup for this format. Especially if you're planning on doing more.

For years I thought I would become financially free with my music, but what is actually working is video editing work for someone I met after I moved to a smaller town in Texas. BUT the only way that worked is that I had already been making and editing you tube videos for the year before that, so I already had a skillset, AND that I am moving to Mexico where the living expenses are more manageable than the US. Even then, Its not guarunteed. My advice? find what you actually enjoy doing (music production, writing, photography, editing work of some type, a specific type of business like coffee, engineering, website design etc..) and find a skillset within it that you can get good at that can do for people online.. Then work on personal projects till you have enough skill to sell. (1-12 months) But baseline you gotta think longer term. Leo mentioned this many times in multiple videos, but generally speaking "The fool wants to get rich quickly, the wise want to get rich slowly. Getting rich quickly is like building a castle on a foundation of sand, it will always be collapsing. Vs getting rich slowly is like building a castle on granite." You may want to approach this like a 3-10 year project, not a weekend. If you approach it like a weekend, that usually means you don't really value it deeply enough to invest the proper effort and time over months and years to create that result. If you value it at a week of your time, I don't see that working for you.

2025 has been the most difficult year of my 27. But at the same time, that's by design. I moved to one of the ugliest places in Texas to save money and build a side income, and by April next year I will be moving to Mexico, finally financially independent enough to work 15-20 hours a week (locationally independent income), and spend the rest with my music and film making. I am finishing the first draft of my most ambitious project yet, a 40-50 episode TV show for Social media built around 4 of my songs. (each episode about 60-90 seconds). It's a bitch, but its mine Relationally, my girl and I are better than ever, having been together for over 2.5 years, all long distance, we are both SO ready to finally live together early next year. Physically, my diet is usually about 80% high quality, but I look and feel basically how I want to. I don't feel ecstatic, but also recognize.. Holy shit, its really working, after all these years. Feels like the culmination of a wave that started far out at sea and is cresting right before me.

Do you already rap? Are you already creating?

Maybe it is not one or the other. On one hand, Michael Jordan did not become so good by slacking off, he outworked everyone around him. But at the same time, He probably enjoyed it often, and was passionate about it. the hard part is working hard enough at something for it to become enjoyable, its a byproduct of mastery (methinks)

If you can get a job that you can 'manage' mentally, but work 20-30 hours a week and still get by, that would be an option to be able to use the extra time to build your life purpose. A quality purpose (by that I mean, working towards something meaningful, fulfilment from work) is more important then most realize, don't let that possibility slip away. I am 27 and working full time as a server while I build an authentic music career. Without the meaning it gives my life I would probably be depressed or suicidal.

Absolutely. I was 19 and too certain. It rocked me, and 8 years later it still does.

Not ONLY a vape but.. I have used these methods for vaping NN-DMT, landing on a straight up dab rig. I will explain why below. 1. Glass vapor genie (Classic, but not really my thing) 2. The discontinued vapes mentioned above, I have one, its perfect EXCEPT I have a shockingly high tolerance to NN DMT so its not enough. 3. Dab Rig: This requires preparation and extra care because of an extremely hot element + Open flame. but it is highly effective, easy to dose (I use a microgram scale) and easy to clean. For this one, I ensure I have a table of some type in front of me to place the dab rig on as soon as I take my hit. On top of that, I ensure that after getting the glass till its slightly glowing, I wait 40-ish seconds for it to cool before dumping in my dose. This works for me because even though I cant ever break through, I can load on high doses to at least feel the effects. hopefully you wont have to go through as much as me to feel it

Authenticity is my top value and strength, others mix and match here and there. I dont see an issue with it
