  1. Lol just kidding, but now when I have your attention, what do you guys think Leo is up to at the moment and what do you think he will learn from his retreat? Gonna be interesting to see his results with healing etc.!
  2. I don't know why but the way he describes God and the Infinite just made me feel it right away. Sort of disturbing and bizarre but still wow
  3. ...and what you just did WAS EXACTLY THAT! Btw. what other forms of way do you propose to us discussing and trying to help each other through? Everything in your life can be a trap. It's about finding what actually works for yourself that's important.
  4. Does God need us for it to be realized? If there is no awakening/tuning into Truth of existence, then does God still exist? Does God even give a shit or is God still "there"? If for example I experience an awakening and I realize that I am God, then God exists. But before that awakening took place, God was not yet realized from my perception. So let's say no one would ever awaken, then would God still come to being? Or is reality itself God and does not need to perceive itself as God for it to be God? One thing I've thought about is that the evolution and purpose of the universe might be for the universe to become self-conscious, and it's doing this in very tiny ways such as people awakening, becoming more conscious etc. But then again, why? What is the point of it becoming conscious of itself? I guess a similar question would be: does a tree make a sound if it falls in the forest and nobody is there to perceive it?
  5. It was pretty good
  6. Interesting podcast! https://samharris.org/podcasts/177-psychedelic-science/
  7. Interesting scene... From the movie "Bedazzled", really shows a clear distinction between Love/God and Devilry. In the movie, the nerdy, unpopular main character gets 7 wishes to be fulfilled from the Devil after selling his soul. He chooses everything he thinks he ever wanted, but realizes that it can never make him happy anyway because his ego will always find flaws.
  8. How do you guys choose what medium is the best for you? I’m kind of in a struggle with where I should put most of my focus on. All mediums involve Personal Developmenr. I am good with public speaking but don’t have a lot of opportunities for it. I LOVE writing and this is actually what I wanna do mostly, to write great books. Only problem is I have to market it the right ways through other mediums such as YouTube-videos, Instagram etc... How do I do to spread my energy inna balanced way when my passion is not really doing the marketing but mostly with the Writing and a bit of public speaking? If I could just focus on the writing I would but there are so many other things I have to work on at the same time to connect the brand/business together in one piece... any advice? thank you.
  9. Around 5-6 hours regular job 1-2 hours business/life purpose before it was the opposite, but in times of change one has to make sacrifices
  10. In essence, the best way to program your subconscious mind (which is your Emotional Mind), you have to combine an idea (affirmation/vision/thought) with an emotion. If you do this, it's directly connected to your subconscious. Repeat this daily and it will be planted. There are greater details to it but that is the basics of it. For example, listen to an emotional song for you while visualizing a certain result you would like to achieve, every day...
  11. Because they have misunderstood what a coach is. A coach/life coach or whatever you wanna call it is not about giving advice. There is nothing I as a life coach can give you more of, because I do not know the client or believe I am "above" him/her. However, I have a good experience in triggering the client to reach an end-result with the session, which is usually clarifying what the client wants. On a daily basis we have so many different issues and problems etc. that w just wanna have someone to talk to, in order to sort it all out. As a coach I will have a perspective of the client which can sort everything out and guide the client toward what he/she wants through questioning him/her. This will open up the answers for the client himself. I don't give the answers, they give themselves the answers. I got interested in life coaching because I always used to walk around talking/coaching myself, and I eventually got really good at it. I thought, wow, I start with a problem and then just 30 minutes later of asking some questions and seeing the problems from different perspectives the problem is gone. Most people just keep it inside themselves and so it never goes away, they never resolve it and never make anything out of it. So I thought, why not help other people with this as well? When it comes to us thinking we know more than a psychologist, absolutely f*cking not. There is not even a comparison, they are 2 totally different things. I am interested in psychology and sure, sometimes I can give advice which can actually help the client. My coaching used to be a bit more straight-forward, since I learnt from my dad, as a sort of "kick you in the ass and get you moving"-type of motivation. This worked really well too, and string that along with some personal philophies – it can actually change people's lives. If it helps people, no matter who it's coming from, then isn't that amazing enough? People are too focused on the labels. I could probably learn something from a child which I would not be able to learn from any "PHD"-*insert a fancy title here*. Life is an open place, and there should be no restrictions. Sure there might be coaches bullshitting, but isn't everything in life just bullshitting anyways? I rather wanna get advice from someone with a burning passion for what they do, than a psychology major not giving a shit about his work but only in it for the money. At the same time I'd rather wanna get advice from a psychology major loving his job with a burning passion than a 'life coach' with zero passion and knowledge only in it for the money (scam artist), you get my point? So don't listen to what they say... do your thing and do it well.
  12. Don't know if I'm allowed to market myself here, but I actually wrote a book on this exact subject: https://www.consciousmotivations.org/product-page/subconscious-mind And yes, it is possible. But If we wanna talk about from an existential level then No, you cannot control anything because there is no one in control. However, check out my book if you're interested, it's very simple and you can learn a lot from it! :-)
  13. Title says it all. Funny to hear about them talk about the GOD MOLECULE, haha! they start talking about weed first and then Mike reveals he tried 5-MeO-dmt and it changed his life.
  14. A suggestion for Leo: What is subjectivity and what is objectivity? How objective can you really get? etc etc etc
  15. It's absolute infinity, not absolute psychosis
  16. Being hardcore Orange to the point of becoming disgusted with the ego-driven goals, materialism and the rat-race, then you're opening a door to green. Actually making the transition stepping into the door without slipping back into orange is difficult.
  17. Life is Psychedelic
  18. Background story: I run a business named Conscious Motivations focusing on improving the life for people, giving them motivation and insights. I have done this in the form of coaching which for me and clients have been very effective. My real passion is writing books on the subject of philosophy and psychology, holding lectures and connecting with people wanting to improve themselves. I have a strong passion for perspective-thinking as well. One of the major goals of my life is to find an objective Truth, or even if there is not one, trying to reconcile subjective Truths, to understand every perspective. By being able to adapt to any perspective and see Truth in each one, being able do adapt it to certain circumstances I believe that we can find peace an solve conflicts in the world. Teaching people about these subjects is also important because I believe that ever problem comes from the ego. If people can become more aware of their dogmatic beliefs and their close-mindedness then they can start working on this to become better. I have lived in Seoul, South Korea for a while now coaching people and training Judo. I came here first back in 2017 for vacation, first time traveling alone (I was 20 so I'm 22 now) and realised a country like this needs personal development. The ideas I came with here (westernised ideas of self-help) kind of clashed with their way of thinking in hierarchies. I was fascinated by this and wanted to continue coming here. I saw it as an escape from my life in Sweden where I held a baggage of identity. Over here in Seoul I could be anyone I wanted to be, only focusing on my purpose and perhaps developing myself. Purpose for this blog/journal: • Sharing ideas and insights I have from my daily life. • Going deeper within my purpose and making it more real. Taking abstract ideas/feelings/urges and manifesting something concrete and tangible. • Sharing theory, concepts and growth of my consciousness as well as growth in my martial art of Judo (second-degree black belt) Projects I'm currently working on: • Writing 2 books: The Conversion (understanding the mechanics of growth and how to make lasting change) –> I explain different historical events objectively as well as adding psychological and philosophical theories and ideas to understand how growth truly happens, both externally and internally. I also add a perspective from Spiral Dynamics on top of this. I'm still figuring out the heart of the book and what it can become, working on the first chapter currently. Be Your Own Coach (how to guide yourself through the struggles of life) –> I take ideas of philosophy, psychology and what I've learnt through becoming a life coach and clients I've had (as well for my own struggles) to create a sort of "game"-book. This is basically a book where the reader follows a character who has to go through different problems and solve them for himself using different philosophical ideas and psychological concepts. Starting out is a very basic, primitive way of solving problems, reacting in emotions etc. and ignoring the problem/wanting to only solve the surface. However the reader has to play along with this so that the level of understanding can be increased chapter by chapter. As a sort of game where in the end the reader is fully "developed", think if ot as levels. • YouTube channel: I haven't put a lot of focus, ever, on my YouTube channel. It was intentionally only used for clients I had but I decided to make it public. I want to grow it so I can share my message. The only problem is I'm not good with online marketing. I've always been a face-to-face person/salesman (I have a lot of experience in the sales field, this is how I got clients in the first place) • Website: I am working on my website, the design, the infrastructure, and I want to create a sort of "blog" or "forum" where I show my teachings and ideas. • Understanding eastern philosophy, spirituality and making it practical in my life. I also want to become enlightened but after all the intellectual knowledge I've gathered around it, I don't know what to do with it. It's almost as if I've come to the conclusion that there is nowhere to go and nothing to do. I meditate every single day and I've had a few enlightenment experiences, as well with magic mushrooms, but it's not a priority. I love my ego too much to give it up. But I'm a master at contemplation (lol, you see the ego?) and it feels as if I will bite my own tail some day up until self-realisation. But I'm actually not foolish to think that's how it's gonna work. I'm just lazy. • Practicing public speaking (Toastmasters + others). I love public speaking, and I'm really good at it as well. I've done lectures at schools in Sweden explaining personal development before and that's something I want to start with again, and I think mastering public speaking can be a great idea so I attend Toastmasters every week here in Seoul. I will also start doing that in Sweden so I don't lose momentum! Main struggles/problems currently: • My own limiting beliefs and ego, always wanting control, manipulative, great at cheating systems, ego-centric, too emotional when someone questions my beliefs and my work. I want to transcend this. • I do not have a university education, I'm "self-educated" but somehow I find that as being a negative thing. It also feels as if I hold a judgement to myself about that and from other people. I really wanted to see how far I could go without an education and I'm very happy with my results so far. I've been accepted to prestigious universities but always declined because I did not feel ready. Also my interests are so broad and I have troubles choosing specifically what I want. Since I already make quite a lot of money for my age it feels as if it would be lowering for me to start studying. I've always held a grudge against universities since I do not think they allow free-thinking, but I've realised I cannot judge what I do not truly know. So I do have an urge to start studying, the only problem is what specifically. I think I might take one more year to truly find out. But I do WANT it and I now see the value in it, the true value. • Aligning my life in South Korea and Sweden. I recently got my own place in Sweden, and it feels as if I could focus even more on my business and improving myself if I just live there. Before I saw Korea as an escape from Sweden but the longer I've stayed here the more I realise that I love Sweden and want to be there too. My financial status has to go "up" so to speak if I want to be able to switch more often between Korea and Sweden. I do not want to be tied to any specific place. I feel freedom is having option to choose whenever, and however. I'm going back to Sweden by the end of July again, honestly looking forward to it. Korea is just a bunch of memories for me by now. • Am I teaching philosophy/psychology/spirituality/whatever? What am I really doing? I don't like definitions that much. I believe that if something can improve a persons life whether or not it is "proven" or just a "concept" or not from an "authority figure" – it STILL has VALUE. This is how I value, not a title or a label or a scientific model. I know these are truly important and that's why I am working on it as much as I can and also want to get deeper in my knowledge of what I am passionate about. The basic problem is I don't know what this can lead to, but that might not be a problem just me needing control. • Losing interest in 1-on-1 coaching, which is how I've made a living the last 2 years along with another job. I only wanting to write and make videos from now on, this requires a new marketing strategy, perhaps another job to make money. • Search for approval/always thinking in terms of value/perfectionist. I always look to be perfect, trouble letting go at times, and I always wonder what is actually valuable in society, who matters etc. • Biological clock is totally f*cked up. I basically live in jet-lag land. I am motivated during the night and I feel manic during the night as well. So I'm always afraid to sleep because when I wake up I have no motivation/I feel depressed and I sometimes do not know what to do. I have tried all types of morning routines etc but I don't know what to do anymore. I've had this struggle for over a year now. It's not affecting my work, it's affecting my rhythm and I want to switch it. I'll try to figure out how... So if you are interested in my journey and want to see where this can lead to, please follow! I am excited to start. Even if I don't have a single follower of this journal or reader I will update it because I see it as a way for me to keep my sanity, and seeing progress. I have experiences of journaling before and I made tons of growth. But I thought, why not start sharing it too? :-) PS: The reason I call this "The Lonely Route" is because I started my personal development/purpose journey back in 2016 by this route near duck lake close to my childhood home in Sweden. Since then I've visited there every Sunday contemplating about life, talking to myself/practicing coaching etc. It sort of became my church. I have now realised wherever I go I always walk the Lonely Route, and so do you, so does everyone. No matter how you feel or what happens in your life, the ducks will always be there, so peaceful and calm. That's how I aspire to be. stay Conscious!
  19. What is the greatest, most selfless act/service you could do for society and humanity at large? Donations? Helping the poor? Educating people? Helping the environment? Enlightenment? ...also I found a great podcast I wanna share with you all. Very yellow-stage-thinking, this guy is great:
