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.

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.

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?

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.

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.

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.

Maybe you prefer Nithyananda instead? Want to spend some time to talk about akashik readings maybe?

Maybe it's that gurubhakti tradition has always worked. Idk.

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.

And it will be a video about nothing. Just like me speaking about Kardashev's type civilization 3. It's pure speculation.

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.

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.

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.

AwakenwithJP? This guy feels stuck. Leo could help him.

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.

By taking some periods off and literally doing nothing or meditating and contemplating about some aspect of my life. That helps the most.

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.

Since social skills have a lot to do with past trauma, I would acctually suggest talking with @Emerald

Don't judge your situation. Accept where you are in life. There is no standard to compare. Your life is unique, yet you can make yourself more competent. Just do some general spiritual practice daily and go meet some women, if you really want to, just recognize it. You can't prevent suffering from happening in your life, but you still can get better at releasing it and not even accumulating it at times. I think what makes you thinking of that so persistent is all the guilts of you accumulate of feeling guilty for who you are and you can certainly feel guilty for the rest of your life when it comes to relationships with the opposite sex. Let's say you either got in relationship it or didn't get into relationship. You will feel guilty about the opposite you didn't choose at times. You can have desire for a woman and yet desire for the truth. If you practice some form of meditation or something you are on that path anyway. What is there to feel guilty of? Reflect and see that it's nonsense. Go and enjoy your life. If some shit will happen, just use it as a fuel to transform yourself. Maybe you will have a beautiful family. Who knows. People are so afraid to take new births and enjoy their unfulfilled desires because we don't know how to live properly.

Watching Hasan Piker

white as snow

I will be a hindu radical and say that yoga comes from Hinduism and is an integral part of Hinduism and works best (by orders of magnitude) if done according to the ancient rishi's and sages texts. I am sorry. But I think it's really true. They already explored so much of what a human being can do and what a human being is. Yoga being diluted is dangerous and unproductive.

I wouldn't quit if I were you.
