    stoicism is nice , but its hyped up . its over sold . a nice thing to be added to your tool box . but it is over rated

    i listen to my consious and follow it 

    one need to put in a lot of work to educate your intuition. 

    you will fuck up  a lot in the begining . but stephen covey put other things to balance the intuition , like self awareness , indipendent will ,creative imagination

     

     

    That's nice. As per Stoicism I think that it's been hyped up nowadays but original works like meditations by Marcus Aurelius etc. are still valuable.

    contemplation is nice and cool . but it is not the only thing in town. 

    some of leos ideas are not battle tested enough 

    if i were you , i would rely on more battle tested ideas

    So if you are talking about battle tested ideas then have you read Stoicism? I mean the original works.

    And what's your progress reading  those books by Stephen Covey or someone else could please share.

    By the way I have read 13 books which include books from self-help and philosophy.

    I contemplated for 35 minutes - How to follow my intuition in life ? The answers that I got . 
    - By following my strong thoughts
    -By first thinking through the consequences of my intuition
    -By only following my strong feelings
    -By acting according to strong internal anticipation 
    -By moving according to my internal compass 
    -By realising that my internal compass is better predictor of success than external forces
    - By realising that intuition is different from being lost in thinking

    Lazy man tips: ask chat gpt to do the entire contemplation for you 🤣

    Jokes aside. There’s different ways to test a statement out. If it’s something about yourself you could test it against what you know about yourself (which is the information you gain from having internal awareness that nobody else has access to). You could test a statement scientifically (not all statements can be tested this way but just an example). You could test a statement against what general opinion says (sometimes what people think in general can hold value because each one has unique life experience and knowledge they are drawing from). You could test a statement by comparing it to various philosophies, if you value the thoughts of big thinkers. So basically if something is “true” can depend on who you ask, what you measure against. 

    Yeah I know people even use Ai for therapy than research. 

    Ai can also be used for testing your insights accuracy even though real life application is better than it.

    I contemplated for 30 minutes- How do I achieve more in my life ?

    These were the answers that came to me.

    - By moving forward no matter what 

    -By realising that I am capable of it

    -By looking in the future in a hopeful way no matter how much I fail

    -By acting on my hope

    -By moving forward with my life force

    -By realise that all failures will fall apart due to forward moving force of life

    - By realising with time I can achieve me

    -By balancing action with hope

    -By accepting failure and then again acting with hope

    -By realising that even problems outside my control are temporary and will be gone

    -By focussing first on what I have achieved and then then moving forward

    I then typed these answers in Claude and asked - Rate each insight out of 100% for accuracy.

    Here was the answer from the side of Claude.

    @TheGod  I was talking to her over text and then once I told her - I love you. She told - Are you crazy man. 

    I told- I like you.

    She asked why ?

    I told that she is beautiful and reply me.

    Then she said - I will slap you in the face and that's the reply.

    The next day I got a call from a guy friend of her threatening me. He told me that you have come to college then study and don't do all these things. You don't know who I am , ask to others in college if you don't want to get disturbed.

    3-4 months later after this incident happened unfortunately my mother passed away due to cancer.

    Then after an year I told to other girls of my batch about it and also to one senior of mine.

    Then I talked to her again over text and she abused me. Her guy friend who threatend me earlier - I told him that I have been hurt from him.

    He told whom did you propose and stop crying.( Even though I wasn't crying 😂) Also he abused me but I argued with him.

    I talked to her over phone and she again abused me why did I told to him and told me to say sorry to him. I told him sorry and I told to him was trying to communicate with him. He said ok.

    She told me over text that I am a child and a cry baby.

    In college when we all transitioned from online to offline semester. I saw him and she told me that this is the guy. I ignored them.

    Then she went on to date other guys of my class. She ignored me etc.

    But with that being said , now my college is over and I overcame it.

    Now I am responsible for moving  forward and finding someone who will love me for who I am.

    It feels light to write this.

    I contemplated for 45 minutes - What can I learn from my past rejections ? These were the answers that came to me
    - To pursue girl whom I like
    -To not to pursue girls who show signs of disinterest
    -To choose girls based on their actions towards me
    -To not to be needy towards girls 
    -That guys who are accepted by girls are not happier than me
    - That I have overcome multiple rejections
    -That girls who show signs of disinterest aren't worth spending time
    -That it doesn't matter weather a girl rejects me or falls in love with me what matters weather I am overcoming rejections or not
    -They didn't deserve me
    - That some girls will like me while some will hate me

    Do let me know your thoughts.

    @Leo Gura Is daily meditating , reframing failures ,feeling uncomfortable emotions a part of your work?  By the way when you talked about fully feeling the suffering in the video - The counterintuitive nature of life I didn't understood back then but after years of suffering and being a failed optimist during emotional suffering I started accepting negative emotions since the last year which decreased my suffering even though it still there I fully embodied what was said in that video.

    I also experience jealousy from time to time when I see a couple. The advice that I can give you @UpperMaster is changing the perspective to - You are as good and successful as other people no matter what the external appearance looks like. 

    Also I have discovered that most of the time when I am feeling inadequate by seeing others success it is an exaggeration of other's status. 

    I used to be jealous of many people but later when I discovered their internal realities that their life is worse than me no matter how good they look externally.
