    @Leo Gura yeah you are probably right especially about meditation which I’ve been slacking with lately. The biggest problem are these uncontrolable thoughts, feelings and sounds going on in my head. It is just like certain phrases repeating themselves on and on and there is nothing i can do about it. Do you think these things go away when you start becoming more conscious in your daily life or is the problem in the dosage and the type of psychedelic.

    The types of thoughts you have are usually linked to the emotion you experience in the moment. If you feel fear, you are gonna have fearful thoughts, if you are angry, you are gonna have either thoughts to destroy or create something and so on. 

    Be mindful of the feelings, release them, and then see how the thoughts change. Each feeling has a certain frequency, and thus your thoughts also tune to the frequency of the emotion.

    @NJF What I would do in your place is the following:

    I would find a really successful DJ and shadow him for a day or ask him a lot of questions about the life of a DJ and about my concerns. That way, I would know if it would fit with my strengths, values, goals, life circumstance etc. Another way is to make small bets (which is covered in the LP course) to see if you would really love to do music more than what you are doing as a pro athlete.

    Secondly, I wouldn't quit the job because it has way too much momentum and maybe your music skills aren't developed enough yet to be able to afford the leap.

    I would instead slowly find a way to transition from the current job to music with zero friction.

    But, if you want to make a drastic decision, do so at your own peril. In my experience, it almost never works out. Although, this especially applies to artists, because there is no way you are gonna put out quality music or content if you are gonna be worried about money and your family.

    @Michael569's advice is also solid.

    @FredFred Given that LP takes decades to actualize, keep in mind that if you are young you will have a tasting/testing phase.

    You don't really know what you will like until you try it and give it a fair shot. That might mean that you give, 1-2 years pursuing each of the three options. If you find out after 6 years that none are quite the perfect fit, time was not lost, because skills are very transferable between domains.

    And, remember that you need to figure your life purpose only once. So if it takes 20 years just to find it, it's ok because after that you can go full laser focus on it and you will be like a race care between bicycles, because you are 200% clear on your purpose while others are constantly doubting themselves and will probably just keep doing that.

    I'll give you a personal analogy. My LP vehicle is music.

    I gave a somewhat fair shot to philosophy for 3 years (I have an undergraduate degree), and then I saw that most academics live miserable lives. That made me 100% clear that I don't want to be a researcher, or an academic professor, or anything else similar. But I can integrate skills acquired through that degree (reading, writing, dissecting and connecting ideas, looking at things from different points of view, teaching, debating) into educating musicians, creating content for musicians, writing books, teaching, coaching and mentoring 1 on 1 and in groups, podcasting etc.

    I was also very passionate about life coaching and fitness. Through honest self-reflection, I eventually eliminated those too, because music goes much better with my values, natural strengths, goals, and background.

    I also don't want anything to do with math, agriculture, investing, finances etc, so those were also easily eliminated. Through this process of elimination and constant reassessment, you eventually remain with your LP.

    So, don't get discouraged, you are just early in the process. Confusion should be expected and embraced while you are going through this.

    @Azote Alex Gray is a technical master and also a spiral wizard.

    Becoming a master in a technical skill and a leader at the same time is not at odds with each other. You can do both.

    I'm on my path to mastering music, but I'm also working on a project/business that is gonna guide musicians to create more conscious music that elevates human culture.

    I'm also gonna educate and help musicians grow as people because I often see that they have severe imbalances in their life from doing the all-in approach on their craft, and thus neglecting business, health, emotional mastery, people skills, mindfulness etc.

    I know what's subjective, but if you put things into context those programs/courses would be a waste for OP. And I think the only reason you were able to improve in authenticity is because of how you uniquely applied what you learned. Even though I haven't been through any of those products, I simply do not believe that RSD teaches true authenticity in their products, I'm sorry.

    @XYZ You're getting a lot of things wrong. You should really try better to understand the wisdom in my advice to OP. But if you're happy right now then I'm happy for you.

    I too was very reluctant of RSD products. I know them all at this point. Some of them are a waste and others are real gems (at least imo) . 

    I'm trying to not close myself from any avenue of potential learning, so I try not to judge a product, service or teaching until I put it to the test. 

    I think that if you make up your mind with some of these products beforehand, you might be missing some real value in the long run.

    @Dan Arnautu Don't encourage him to waste money on PUA stuff. It won't help him. What he needs is authentic connection.

    Wasting money is subjective. If it's the wrong program or if the buyer doesn't take action, it surely won't work. 

    Also, my relationships have never been more authentic since I went through multiple RSD products.

    Have you gone through any one of them?

    The thing is I have really everything in my life in order. Every time I was rejected I did what everyone says and focused on myself more. But now Im 30 and I wonder WHEN will it happen and will it even happen.. I have zero confidence with girls and I dont know how to acquire it if everybody rejected me up to this late point in life. I can tell myself Im a good catch all day but I wont believe it anyway.

    I dont know how I would break out of this cycle other than a girl falling for me by pure luck, and thats never going to happen. And im tired of focusing on myself and putting off relationships for another decade. 

    Do an RSD bootcamp. One with Todd Valentine or Denton Fisher is also an option. 

    If you don't have the money for that, buy The Sytem by Todd.

    Everything seems to combine nicely, from the theme to the lyrics, to the fractal type video looping into itself.

     

    Lyrics:

    "When I leave this skin and bone

    Beyond my final heartbeat

    I’ll dismantle piece by piece

    And I will know that death is not defeat

     

    Holding on tight to what’s left of our time

    We’ve hidden away

    But it’s in the design

    Why do we fight what we can’t define?

    Don’t be afraid, we all cross the same line

     

    Into the night we burn and rage In death we repay for time on this stage

    The lights are bright but don’t lose your way ‘Cause once it ignites

    The flame must decay

     

    Now you’re finally complete

    I will see you where oceans meet

     

    Past and present merge

    Light and dark will converge

    Time will overthrow our reign on this throne

     

    The everlasting sleep

    Returning through the veil

    Far beneath the deep

    Another soul sets sail"

     

     

    Even if you don't listen to rock or metal music, I think it's good to see that this is out there if you're studying spirituality and spiral dynamics.

    For each area of mastery, there are gonna be about 10 critical skills to master, not just one.

    For example, as a photographer:

    • Photo manipulation
    • Lighting
    • Photo editing
    • Graphic design maybe
    • Writing (if he's gonna be a travel blogger/photographer)
    • Marketing
    • Sales

    As a musician:

    • Ear training
    • Improvising
    • Lyric writing
    • Composition
    • Harmony
    • Musical Theory
    • Audio editing, mixing, mastering
    • Video editing, mixing, mastering
    • Learning to work with samples
    • Learning multiple instruments (if you are a film composer)
    • Marketing
    • Live performance
    • Networking and People skills

    You are seriously underestimating the scope of the work. If your life purpose is music, you must master at least the top 3 skills from the usual 10 in your domain of mastery. That's why you have 60+ years ahead of you. So get to work. ;)
