  1. I have tought quite a bit about getting homeless. Do you have a red cross in your country? You can stay there for some time or for a very low payment, can you? You should look for such options Do you have friends that you can couch surf? Don't be afraid to ask, what do you have to lose, you will find out who your actual friends are. You will have internet access to look for job and some time to look for it. The jobs you found may be toxic, but please, consider taking them. Pollution is not an excuse for gettingva 6 month stable income and finding a apartment to rent. You can survive that. What is the alternative I may ask you? You can substitute that work for something better you may find. But after probation period do you get some health guarantees and stuff? Also I would disown and cut all contact with my family if they did this to you. I would treat them as a stranger if I came out of this situation well. But it's up to you. Also doing bottle deposits and stuff like that is an option to generate some income. Church staff can also guide you. Are there unemployed courses or guarantees people can recieve? I don't wish anybody to have this situation and I have been very fortunate in this regard, however that may change on the second part of my life as I will have literally nobody, but by that time I hope I will be reflecting enough that I don't care wether I am alive or not.
  2. Then leave once for all. All this SD bullshit discussion is about nothing. We are just throwing poop at each other. There is nothing of substance going on...
  3. and you are waiting to disagree with me which proves my point. A "nice guy" won't challenge you. I am a nice guy in real life and I laugh (internally) at the doormat treatment I sometimes receive.
  4. I will never stop laughing at this kind of "self development" which arrives at absolutely nothing.
  5. Authenticity and not being boring
  6. @Schizophonia we will appoint you.
  7. Tip. Don't have 10k + posts unless you are Leo. Don't play a serial victim, make multiple accounts to reply to your own posts, become unbearable, get banned and make more accounts and keep playing the victim and being here aginst the forum guidelines. Then you have a chance to grow.
  8. Watching these videos make me genuinely desire and think to approach women, I think a lot of guys need to watch this if you feel like family values and companionship is for you. But the problem is that my desires for something else are stronger, so maybe it's not for me. But it will help you if you watch how to get laid series, as corny as it sounds. I think it's good analysis of the current dating environment and male psyche.
  9. If you have erectile dysfunction, doesn’t it mean you are on the way on heart problems and you need to consider that? Then, how often can you use it?
  10. There are some fake profiles in different degrees and it's not being moderated unfortunately. There are people who use two accounts to reply to themselves. This is nothing in comparison.
  11. You know, I sometimes really think so. You have the freedom to contemplate the luxury of sielence and the potential to change your life in a big way.
  12. Isn't it paradoxical that seemingly logical, rational and moral people do the opposite of these three things all the time. Life is not something you can put into a box of rationality. I am happy that I got that some time ago.
  13. Maybe you prefer Nithyananda instead? Want to spend some time to talk about akashik readings maybe?
  14. Maybe it's that gurubhakti tradition has always worked. Idk.
  15. I will show you the Guru and you can go to his Ahshram, you just need a plane ticket. Will you drop everything and go? He is very effective.
  16. And it will be a video about nothing. Just like me speaking about Kardashev's type civilization 3. It's pure speculation.
  17. All of this is my honest opinion, as honest as I can be. I am sorry, it will be hurtful, but I will say it. I will tell you why it bothers me. And it really does, it pains me to see. It shows to me that personal development mostly is bullshit and talk, obsession about nothing tangible, based on what I see you expressing on this forum. It's micromanaging a mental diarrhea. Maybe I should stop posting instead. I have been a fool. My reply to your topic will have no impact whatsoever. Nothing will be refined, improved or developed. Spiritual practice is the most practical self-development I have known and Leo has built a brand on it to help people with it. What I found in google: "Personal development or self-improvement consists of activities that develop a person's capabilities and potential, build human capital, facilitate employability, enhance quality of life, and facilitate the realization of dreams and aspirations." Now, you probably would argue why I am incorrect and so on, so forth. And here we are, ten thousand posts later. Was a single technique implemented, diet adopted, unusual challenge accepted, life purpose looked or was there any seeking? I don't know, only you truly and honestly know. I just sincerely hope you realize to stop, and I hope that your quality of life improves from what you are facing. The worst thing is that people will also think what you are discussing (and I mean the content of 10000 posts) is self-development. But after thousands of posts, what has really worked? If you want to hang out, hang out, chat, discuss, but don't tell me this is personal development.
  18. I will get warning points if I say this, but I will. I think you are @Tyler Robinson and @Preety_India. Spiritual practice (any form) is what you can always do, even if you are poor.
  19. Relax. It's not that black and white. Reality does not function just like that. Nobody is going to come and brainwash you except from some isolated incidents usually from people that are already in your life. Besides, do you think that Trump is religious, just curious? Nobody has time to come and offer Jesus to you and me. They rather go to KFC and watch some tiktoks because they got to work tomorrow.
  20. AwakenwithJP? This guy feels stuck. Leo could help him.
  21. It's funny when normies, even PhD's, discover this kind of content. Let's be real who wants to question the axioms and the goods it produces of the scientific method and fear losing the concept of reality as you tought it is. The what if question is scary. But Dave can't handle it. He can’t handle that there might be an infrastructure of raw empirical experience which produces this forum, produces religions, produces cults, gatherings, rituals, traditions which attempt to talk about experiences more valid than sense perception. There is no objective evidence of this. By seeking you get some pieces of empirical evidence on the way. And the depth and deepening of the experience is the evidence. But Dave just can't face it. Sam Harris handled it being a skeptic, I am sure Professor Dave can too. I would even challenge Professor Dave to do Isha Kriya for 48 days as per the video and tell me that you did not feel bliss in your "third eye" region or literally do any other Isha yoga practice with a qualified Isha teacher and tell me that there isn't something more to it. Go and sit at Dhyanalingam and tell me that you didn't felt weird. Go into a vipassana retreat where you do nothing for long periods of time and tell me that nothing happens to your quality of consciousness. But I know, it's all "bogus and brainwashing and there is no depth, merit and sincerety" basically I don't want to do it because I am scared to change in a critical and non-rational way and I will lose my precious worldview and rational prestige or whatever. So it's so ironic that it's just one cult leader fighting another. Bottom line is that there is tremendous depth of these meditation and yoga practices and if you really want to find, you will find and Professor Dave will not.
  22. By taking some periods off and literally doing nothing or meditating and contemplating about some aspect of my life. That helps the most.
  23. Going 6 +months with no jerking off. Horny, but have big meditation gains. I absolutely HAVE to meditate regularly or I will be very horny. Still not gonna touch it. I have less craving for women, attention and social status. It's still there, but the coping is many times more effective.
  24. Since social skills have a lot to do with past trauma, I would acctually suggest talking with @Emerald
