  1. I almost never use razors or safety razors. This is the best thing I found, for minimum skin irritation. It's a cutting machine but that gets really close to the point of almost matching a razor. Faster and easier to use than any razor, so you can use it more often, and in the end your average beard length will be the same or smaller =)
  2. 🤣
  3. I strongly suggest to read How To Be A 3% Man from Corey Wayne. Read it 10-15 times as he advocates. You don't want to act robotic but understand the essence of the book. Also, you probably can benefit from assertiveness. Read books on assertiveness, how to say no, etc. Learn to not give a fuck, to work through your toxic shame. You gotta exercise those muscles. That said, notice that the idea of "alpha male" carries a lot of baggage with it. It may not be the healthiest and most sustainable way of living, but it all depends of the life stage you're at. As you already noted on However, consider that, sometimes, the fear of lashing out is part of what holds you back. Part of assertiveness is recognizing and acting on the validity of your own emotions. To prioritize how you feel vs how (you think) others feel. If your emotions tell you to lash out and you don't, you're betraying yourself. If you are too much on one side of pendulum, you may need to explore the other side a bit to reach the equilibrium point. Allow yourself some headroom. The most important is to act on your emotions, your boundaries, soon. That requires recognizing them early and getting rid of the shame or fear that you carry that prevents you from expressing your boundaries and desires early on, before they are crossed or neglected so often or so deeply that you build deep anger and lash out or you miss opportunities of putting yourself first. So in a sense learning how to express yourself will make you a better person, but the path may have some rough spots. Ultimately, trust in yourself, accept yourself, validate yourself. You're the only person who can do that.
  4. Another idea: a comments box within each video page. It would def facilitate interaction and exchanging perspectives: I watch a video and bam, comment just below. I understand this is not trivial — we already have the forum and I don't know how easy integration would be — perhaps a different platform. I also understand Leo may not want to be responsible for answering each and every comment — it would be more an open discussion for the community. I guess this would have to be made explicit when advertising the product.
  5. Feedback: for those who applied but haven't heart anything back yet — it would help to receive an email acknowleding the application was received. I have double-checked the email address I sent it to, but I wouldn't like to, e.g., miss even the wait list and only realize that months or years down the road.
  6. Nice, thx for sharing. Impressive how metabolic issues are at the core of so many diseases nowadays.
  7. Interview with Valter Longo about peptides:
  8. The problem IMHO is that taking this drug fixes nothing about the root cause. It allows people to get by without actually learning anything about nutrition, without even changing their relationship with food.
  9. Suggestion: how to communicate complex or high-consciousness topics effectively. I understand the listener must be open-minded, but I’m curious about additional insights into communicating complex ideas persuasively — especially topics that require the listener to develop a sensitivity to nuance for the deeper insights to truly click.
  10. Suggestion: insights into how Leo generates content (both the long & short video formats). For example, any processes to select/organize insights and ideas (e.g., from your commonplace book), draw connections among them, and then distill it into a structure that guides you when recording the video.
  11. Done, thanks for the quick reply!
  12. Btw, just realized I bought it using an email on Paypal different from the email I had purchased other Actualized.org products (despite being logged into Actualized.org with the 'correct' email), and the product was assigned to the Paypal email I used. Would there be a way to unify this, so as to keep everything under the same login, if possible? CC: @Leo Gura EDIT: I'm gonna send an email to the system email with the request.
  13. Nice, just bought it. Anyway, I had to make up for paying only $250 for the life purpose course almost a decade ago. It still baffles me the amount of information therein.
  14. Nice. Is the vault going to be a superset of Instagram, in that all insights posted on insta will also be in the vault? Just wondering if we can avoid Instagram altogether without missing the good stuff after purchasing it.
  15. Just another quick fix. Long-term thinking = ZERO
  16. Have you tried focusing on sleep hygiene & improving your sleep environment? Completely dark room (or as close to that as possible) Cool room and mattress temperature Eating at most 3h away from sleep; preferably 4h+ Only use the bed to sleep and have sex Avoid screens (or use sunglasses / orange glasses); also configure screens to be dark and reduce blue light Etc.
  17. Probably absorved by the gut microbes in that case.
  18. So true. In my case it mostly works for peeing, gotta translate the skill to the other hole.
  19. In my experience 8mg vaporized is already enough for a full trip. 5meo is a risky substance, especially compared to more traditional psychedelics. Make sure do your own research. Try to use a device that allows you to reliably ingest the full substance (always hard with vaporization, but devices such as Dr. Dabber allow for way better control than using a torch and a pipe. I made a post about it in the forum)
  20. Btw, people focus on heavy metals but there are way more fundamental things to be checked and addressed before moving to that, from my perspective. For example (speaking to everyone, not only the OP): have you done 24h urinary calcium, magnesium tests? How do you know your calcium and magnesium intakes are adequate? have you done calcium metabolism blood markers (PTH, vitamin D, serum Ca, serum Phosphate), checked b12 (40% marginal defficiency in the broad population), ferritin, etc.? Have you checked your thyroid status — do you need to supplement iodine (especially if not eating iodized salt)? Even small things like getting constant sleep and eating enough fiber. These are all things that can be optimized in much safer ways (e.g., taking a vit. d or calcium supplement if you happen to need it) than messing around with heavy metals. And for the OP in particular: b vitamin supplementation will likely be the highest lever given MTFHR variant, but ideally based on measured hcy values
  21. If you haven't done it yet: You need to test hcy (homocysteine), and probably supplement 5-MTHF (methylfolate), probably optimize b12 too, to improve your methylation capacity (which will bring hcy down since methylation converts it back to methionine). This is more fundamental than heavy metal screening IMHO (I'm not a health practitioner, so take this with a grain of salt). I have the C677T variant, and I only found it when I tested my hcy (in the 27 range; ideal is <=10 depending on the source). I've managed to bring it down with supplementation. If you have further questions I'm happy to help. This guy has great content btw (search his channel for more videos):
