  1. I've been trying to implement MEDITATION for 9 months or so..   and i almost meditated everyday since then ...

    The problem is that I didn't control myself and i interrupted my session many times .. or i moved a lot ... or i just laid in bed 30 minutes when i was tired ... 

    or i was doing it late at night , it wasn't consistent  ... 


  2. :):) Hi there from Europe (Romania )  , i'm Hans and i'm 16. :)

    I have two years of school left then i have to go to college . Until then I want to achieve some things but i don't know if i can do it all in 2 years. 

    I have developed a lot of skills like : Video , audio , photo editing , learned some programming , i speak 4 languages 

    *** becoming a charismatic and good communicator,public speaking , getting into relationships, having success with girls, MAKING PEOPLE HAPPY,FEARLESS - Have 3 girlfriends , have many public speeches 

    *** creating art (videos ,drawings) , getting good at movie-making and getting success on youtube -5.000 subscribers , make inspirational , funny art  .

    *** Learning for school and getting good grades - Learn school material , study psychology master it

    *** Implementing meditation and a healthy lifestyle  , clean room ,  Getting fit  - stable habits

    *** Finding a way for making money , so i don't worry about it  - make money

    *** Doing things for others: Feeding my dogs, helping my grandma , my mom , helping others .

    ***Learn business  

     These are my goals .. and the kind of person that i want to become ... I'm trying to do these things but i am not sure in what way i should implement these them .. 

    and how much would it take for me ... i don't want to underestimate it .. because i did it many times , i tried implementing many habits , i failed sometimes , now i am still doing it ...  I think it will take me a lot of years though 

    Can you give me some opinions about what strategy should i use  ? :):):):):) Have a nice day :):):) 


  3. I got a camera and i began making some vlogs (talking with friends)...then i watched the videos and realized ...how much  I love myself...,my life.... and everything  and i feel like i just don't want life to pass ... i am addicted to every second of my life , when i think about  my past,my childhood ,i look at old photos ,videos ... i feel very nostalgic and happy and there are things,happenings that i don't remember... I DON'T WANT MY LIFE,MY EMOTIONS TO BE FORGOTTEN , I WOULD WANT TO HAVE EVERY SINGLE BEAUTIFUL MOMENT OF MY LIFE RECORDED . (i don't know why i got this feeling right now) Sometimes when i shoot videos i feel like it's boring .... and then i watch the video a few days after ... and i am like wooooow ... it was an amazing experience and it's all ok and i feel nostalgic and happy about it :))) It feels like i lost a piece of my life , that i can't get back ... it's gone ...  I want keep all my emotions....Do you ever feel like this?


  4. I am 16 years old,male :)) . I want to have an amazing life full of joy , love, adventure ,happiness, amazing sex and ART ,making others happy , smile and  laugh ,  ( not in a superficial way )and i also want to learn,know about all  aspects of life. I feel like I have talents that need to rise to the surface (i mean sometimes i feel like this , when i am confident). I know , i sound like an egoic narcissistic person but i really don't feel that way.  I have a vision about making movies ,acting  , collaborating, working with others .. and producing powerful , beautiful , funny , deep , philosophical, scientific movies and many other types too. I like music , drawing , editing videos , special effects .I love the idea of having deep impact on people . I love making other people laugh . I love self-deprecating humor.  I know that this is just talk ...  that's the problem ... I don't want to be a hypocrite who preaches a lot but doesn't ACT . I don't want to write my whole life story although I would love to (I'd love to have someone to discuss my whole life with :)) ..  I think i am somewhere at stage orange . 10 months ago I tried to implement a lot of stuff in my life :meditation , eating healthy ,studying , sports , learning ,socializing  , waking up early , etc.   AND I FEEL LIKE I IMPROVED A LOT SINCE THEN in some areas of my life. But the thing is that i was still stuck because  i slacked off a lot ... and after a few months i realized that I tried to hard to do everything at once . So now my approach is to IMPLEMENT ONE HABIT A MONTH (like first month one habit ,second month two habits ,...)
                                                                      1) MEDITATION

                                                                      2) STUDYING

                                                                      3) RSD ( because i want to have my first girlfriend lol) 

                                                                           etc... 

    I am on day 43 of consistent meditation (and concentration of course )   

    And now i am doing two things meditating and studying (i had 2 days off :( ) . 

    BUT sometimes i feel like i just want to go out and live life, have fun ... or when i want to make some movies ... i want to make them when i am inspired ...

    CAN YOU MAKE A HABIT OF BEING ARTISTIC AND CREATIVE ? or you just do that when the inspiration comes?  

     

    DO YOU THINK THIS  IS A GOOD APPROACH?

    :):):) 

    PS: I AM VERY LAZY ...  Sometimes inspiration comes when i am lazy .. can laziness be a source of inspiration,motivation ? Sometimes i just stay in my bed and i don't do anything , i also want to be more confident.


  5. I am 16 years looking for my passion .... i love great acting  , also enjoy editing photos videos,drawing, programming .. i feel like i could become very good at any of these .. but i feel like i must become an actor but that would be a really hard thing to accomplish .

    There are various activities that people do in order to get money , create products,services and art  for other people. 

    But which are the most important ones ? 

    Let's say that there is a scientist who is very innovative and his new discoveries are applied in real life and many people benefit from that.

    Then there is a singer who can sing very well but doesn't really help people in staying healthy , getting the right information or having a better environment , they just make people feel in certain ways.

    And then there are all those gurus who make money by telling others how to make money ...

    What counts as work ? is there a level of importance to all the activities  ?

    Is a scientist more important than an artist ? (yes i know it depends on the impact they have on the world) but what if both have really big positive impact , but in different ways ... materialistic and emotional ..


  6. 1) Communicating and socializing with others :

    Sometimes i feel that social anxiety  coming from nowhere ... then i begin to mumble and stutter (maybe because i speak 4 languages ).. then i worry about what the people i talk to think about it .. but other times i speak really well when i am with my friends or when i am just confident. It also may be that i am not interested in them.

    2) Figuring out what i want to do in my life:  

    There are more things that i could be doing (others say i have talent in and i like) :

                                                                                                                                    Become an Actor,producer ( i don't really have the self confidence to this one , cause i have this social anxiety sometimes , it would be hard to work with other people unless i get over my social anxiety)

                                                                                                                                      Graphic Designer ( this one would be an "easy" one cause i have talent in drawing and i already have some photoshop skills , and had experience  but i don't know if this would fulfill me or if i would live up to my highest value with this one , but it is still much less riskier than acting)                  

    3) Developing a learning habit for school.

                                                                                      BTW i'm 16 .                  

                                                                                                                                      

                                                                                                                                      

     


  7. So , i am in high school , europe . I think that the way our teachers present to us the subject is sooo boring .. when it could be really much fun . I have seen many good teachers who are really passionate about their subjects and they make you interested  , but the majority are not like that , they just kinda do it cause they get money. Also i find some things that we learn very unnecessary.  For example , in math class ... i hate it when we just have to learn a lot of formulas and don't even know what the hell are they about ... and you just apply them in problems .  Or when you have to read a lot of old romanian literature . Yes i know it depends on the book but those books are really not useful in anything , i don't get it  why don't they  just write the main idea ,why do they have to shit talk hundreds of pages  ¬¬. Everyone learns them just to pass the exam .  I love khan academy , it's a youtube channel and they are doing such a great job :):)  :)  . I want my teachers to be like them and i also want to not learn all the unnecessary stuff and to stress about grades . For me when i have to learn for a test i find it really disgusting , Why do you force me to memorize something rather then explain to me so that i can i have a deep understanding? because i don't have time to understand the subject deeply , i just have to memorize things that i forget in a week. :( I'm sure that if teachers were more passionate about their subjects , then they would make it much more interesting and there would be many more good students. And i can't really concentrate on finding my passion , working on it when i constantly have to do my homework. 


  8. have you guys heard of the rice experiment ? watch this   and  this is not the only successful video on yt ,there are many others .. even my friend did this and had good results

  10. Hello , my name's Hans and i am 16 years old. 
    At the beginning of 2017 i visualized how i would improve my life in many areas, i didn't write down goals just visualized them ..but i also began to think on my obligations that i have so i started implementing habits :
    i wanted these things :
    1)become social
    2)healthy
    3)money management
    4)get a girlfriend
    5)good grades
    6)find passion, learn/exercise

    Here are the things that i already was doing :
    *brushing my teeth everyday
    *feed my dogs everyday
    *meditating 30 minutes everyday
    (i was doing other things too but randomly)

    i tried to implement :
    *Getting up everyday at 6 so i can meditate early (at 8 i have school)
    *Socializing everyday (cause i'm pretty shy)
    *Eating everyday at least 3x
    *Eating vegetables daily
    *Study / homeworks 1 hour everyday
    *Researching,finding my passion learning acting,photoshop,business..
    *Nofap 30 days
    *Talking everyday about different topics in front of the camera

    In the first 10 days i was really concentrating on NOFAP and on socializing - i was thinking wether my productivity was caused by Nofap or by me believing so badly that i improve  and saying to myself that now i do nofap so i can only be productive :))

    And then when i released on day10 i became very lazy , not doing anything just the old habbits .  I did the 10 days nofap 3 times this year ..it's been 2 months and a half

    I improved in socializing quite alot  , but didn't take action in getting a girlfriend 
    i actually never tried to get a girlfriend... i talked to many  but didn't tell them i like them .. but at least this year i got close to 2 girls who i didn't know that well :))

    The reasons why i didn't improve that much in the last 2 months:

    *** I often find myself thinking ,if the thing that i do is ok for me ? Like Nofap.
     One thing is for sure : Nofap gave me more energy ... but the focus , motivation , etc/
    i don't know if it was because of nofap or because i believed so much that it helps me improving .. that my body eventually started working that way.
    What if I masturbate just before i go to sleep sometimes ? that way i'm not wasting energy
    *** The people that i surrounded myself with were not always inspiring,uplifting 
    i got really disconnected from self-actualization  .. i was just chilling after school with friends not doing anything .
    ***didn't sleep enough , had no energy , i always went to sleep like at 12 and woke up at 6.
    *** i begin to think about the meaning of the life , about the importance of our existence.. about our perception of reality ... and then i come to the conclusion that the life has no meaning because it is just a human concept .. then i think how i do a lot of things .. but it has no big value for the big universe .. i sometimes get really sad that we can not understand the whole universe .. and i watch all these videos of leo and i get a bit confused , like finding the balance in life .. when i think of this ... i tend to become lazy
     
    * **let's say i get a compliment from someone : a teacher  .. but then someone says i'm dumb ...or last time a girl told me that i look very handsome i felt very good, but then a boy asked me why am i so pale .. then i felt sad . But then I realised that it was all just because of how i thought of myself , how i behaved , how i presented myself ...when they see that in me they feel good so they think positive..
    then i noticed that different people have different oppinions of me at different times ..depending on their experience, vows, world view or mood ... just like i have different oppinions of different people at different times , but then what's the solution ? 
    Accept that the world is constantly changing ? 

    *** is it ok to drink beer sometimes ? is it ok to go to parties .. in order to pick up girls ? 

    *** some say you have to work really hard .. others say that you have to work smart
    that you have to enjoy your life , not to be so hard on yourself ... contradicting

    ***How to connect with people if they see through their filters .. how they have been programmed , told .. they really stick to society .. rules.. like " learn , get a job ,get a family ,go to church " ...  what if i chose that lifestyle .. would'nt i bee happpier , i wouldn't overthink so much ..

    *** I feel like I overthink sometimes too much

    *** is it ok to wake up at 6 .. i usually get sleepy at 12 ..? 

    I just wanted to share my thaughts about my current stage ,ideas
    if you have anything to tell , share , recommend me smth  go ahead


  11. My question to you : Has Leo changed his opinion about affirmations ?  Is it good to do daily affirmations focusing on 1 thing/goal at once ?

    I ask this just because this video was uploaded like 2 years ago ..

    It varies, sometime morning, sometimes late at night. The only rule I have is that I never miss a day.

    I sit cross-legged on my couch with pillows and cushions. Not full-lotus or even half-lotus.

    Worst? The oldest ones.

     

    Hi Leo ,

    my name is Hans and my question is : Do I not have to have a regular basis ( like everyday at 06:00 ) for meditation ?

    I just have to do it everyday whatever the time is?
