  1. The fact of the matter is that humanity is more disconnected than ever and it is because forums dont replace our need for human connection... Having eye contact, hugging, these things are irreplaceable, and its a disservice to us all to not be able to find that amongst ourselves within a community that supports some of the greatest ideas to empower us.
  2. 1 on 1 is allowed, but 3 ppl in a group is forbidden Also im pretty sure Im not allowed to post my phone number to have people all in individual conversations with me, or is that allowed? There is a big difference between recruiting to form as a competitor , and just recruiting a handful of people to collaborate on self-actualizing in any form of communication not threads on this forum.. If im allowed to invite everyone to privately talk to me on my cell, then thats cool, but im 99% certain it wont be allowed. Im not interested in forming some group to replace this in any shape or form... im just looking for colleagues to grow with and have as real person to person interaction... which is why im complaining about the forums... it doesnt serve any kind of personal intimate human bonding... its like the opposite of that...
  3. You are off-topic. Glad to discuss this with you on a thread of this topic.
  4. Yeah and follow that road and tell me you dont end in Dystopian "1984"
  5. sounds like you missed the parts in Spiral Dynamics about partial perspective, relativism, and plurality... go practice Empathy out of your hermit cave my dude. Be on the streets and walk that walk You are also deflecting conversation off-topic. Wake up amigo. Its fine if you subscribe to God as all and you as all as God, but dont be a distraction from the reality that exists with self-masturbation to a singular ideology In fact, Leo does say no ideology. So you should be skeptical of this belief you have and open-minded, should you not?
  6. This is the cult that it is trying to prevent from becoming elsewhere. PMs are 1 on 1. and is there a particular place for Accountability threads? threads are definitely limiting , as there is a frequency restriction to posting, and if I want to discuss things on video chat, then what? We are to be controlled at the cost of freedom.
  7. that is just one perspective... and its not holistic/integrative , its just absolutist.
  8. my goal is realizing a world of utopia by bringing everybody up. The goal here is buying only from Leo... cant make friends or community... cant collaborate amongst ourselves either outside the controlled atmosphere. you forgot that. "We dont want you befriending each other" WHO THE FUCK DOES THAT?
  9. Yes , exactly, out of his control... you said it perfectly...is that a bad thing? Why??? I do not like anyone trying to control me, and its downright offensive. Also, im talking accountability and mutual support? It can devolve, but who is he to forbid all intercommunication for our goals together??? What is this forum really about?? Because not allowing such things speaks volumes about who this serves and who it doesnt. -Kory
  10. Yes , i did think Leo cared. I projected my values onto him about caring about humanity and willing to say "its not about me" , i must have been mistaken.
  11. Things make sense more.. Why is this forum stale and there a lack of excitement as we empower each other...?? Because the rules are for the self-interest of one person, and being dependent on Leo is a strategy for him to profit off people, without worrying we help each other grow independent among ourselves. Correct me if im wrong. I really understand the no competiton rules, but this is extreme form of control like you would find at a church "only I can preach and if you dont like it gtfo!"
  12. Booyaa, another day to grind on it. Yesterday didnt write. Recap. Was very tired following 1st day back to Gym... partial blame going to junk-food diet (I believe gluten comes with a 24-48 hour energy crash... and also smoked a bowl of weed after breakfast... Laid in my van all morning/afternoon, did some calls to get ball rolling on new ID, and a job program, listened to more Dispenza mostly. Bought energy drink after lunch and ibuprofen, which mostly knocked out the exhausted feeling, Doordashed for a few hours. Sticking point : Talking to people and start to internally dwell on conversation points too much. Also getting more into conscious creation of the life I want to live... rewiring brain via doing more what I want to be , and removing actions that I dont want... altogether less procrastination. Sticking Point #2 : Learning to say No to people... definitely people trying to use me from the homeless shelter, like I ghosted the guy wasting my time trying to be my new gym buddy. "I got business to handle" Started several threads , as I am just like "why not spam the forums with questions I want to work on?" Also watched Leo's 1st video in Start Here, really good overview starter video, crazy how I feel like I know 60% of it already, but the thing is *fundamentals* so drilling in the basics irregardless if I know 90% or not... as how can I teach it if I dont know it through and through? Definitely gonna have to add meditation ASAP. Im already getting more clear and crisp feeling, only 5-6 days into starting to turn my life around Adding 20-30 seconds of cold shower to every shower. Havnt updated my journal in a few days on Actualized.org Wrote a post and accidentally deleted it. Went to gym and worked out hard, really helped "dial-in" (effects diminshed after 24-48 hours) Had a guy starting to leech off me, drug me around wasting my time... Gotta work on saying No. (Self-respect, commitments to my other plans, people gotta respect me saying No or kick them out immediately) Smoked weed with that leecher, bought me a gram and started being lazy, reinstalled a game, lost momentum, relapsed into old identity (note to self, keep practicing identity change, it is *not* a one time thing, but an active ongoing process requiring daily commitment) Cut back on people altogether again, maybe its because there is a lingering effect of weed making me like that for up to 3 days after? Will see. Leecher got kicked out of Salv. Army housing and ghosted him. Kinda ghosting everybody (cuz of weed's effect) Been wasting a lot of time throughout the day... doing some doordash in morning , lying around most of afternoon and evening.. Seems like life is an *energy game* , mylenating neuron pathways through repetition, body prefers using less energy and defaulting back to old habits... Felt like 'two step forward, one step backwards' until getting thrown off that day with leecher and picking up smoking weed a few days and reinstalling a game. Loss of drive, emotionally monotone feeling. Lined up for a Career 'Work Ready'program, going to be ongoing with daily classes , preparing for interviews, getting resume fixed up, learning skills related to field I want to work in, help with finding employers,and the whole 9 yards. Got a birth certificate ordered - 2 weeks tho, get my ID and SS card following that... Things Im working on implementing to daily routine Cold Shower Wim Hof + Meditation habit Going thru Transformation Academy classes Going thru Actualized.org classes Every 2-3 days going to Gym Getting to sleep early (no lights including phone) around 9pm , waking up at 5/6am Going thru Optimize mini-classes Earning extra $20-60/day Doordashing Need to identify goal for entreprenurship and commit to doing that around the clock Need to write down list of Self-Inquiry questions Need to work on schedule and measuring success towards commitments. Need to create a study habit... like an environment where I aim to be productive (because lazy in my bed/van/tv) , maybe start going to library/coffee shop and do Pomodoro technique and try 3 blocks of 30-60 mins of goal-oriented activity. Also dressing up like 'im going to work' maybe that will help with feeling like 'this is work time' instead of constantly dipping off on my phone being lazy. Definitely slacking though. Hopefully a few days off weed and doing some Wim Hof/working out will help reset back... what originally seemed to get me going last week was 1) a girl playing therapist for me with lots of "i love you" intimacy + eye contact (not romantic love at all,just like "i care about"love and providing me space to open up , and 2) getting pissed off at some cops harrassing me, really spiked my emotions , which is kinda the opposite after smoking/chilling too much feeling emotionally monotone now Anyways, one of my biggest lessons so far has been "When falling off the horse, you must get right back on it" as this applies to habits/personal change... If I let one or two more days go without journaling, Im essentially going to have to start all over again... so here we go, back on the horse I get. Much love -Kory
  13. Hello amazing person, I am Kory , and here is my Day 1 of an official journey I mean to commit to. Welp, after a long time of messing around, here I am in a Salvation Army homeless shelter and now the quote that captures how I feel... "The Sleeping Giant has Awakened" I landed here last night. I have been living in my van for 8 months. I am 32, and my own self-sufficiency has been lacking. I've stayed back and forth with people and on my own, always moving between jobs, places, and people. I've always wanted to be a high level life-coach, but as I went down the rabbit hole to unreel the nature of life, I disassociated with most everything but my own addictions to gaming and staying high. I've definitely been stuck for many years more-or-less doing the same shit not going anywhere. But I have kinda riddled out the missing ingredients to the recipe for my own success, and it is certainly very exciting to be in a homeless shelter and letting go of the things holding me back... I was living in my van near relatives and just staying within a comfort-zone that was actually screwing me over. The week before, it was still entertaining suicide to some degree, but I just came to accept that I needed help and my identity was gonna have to be scrapped... So I deleted all my games , like "I have no idea how I am gonna spend my day if im not binging out, but we will see!" Well I had an incident that pissed me off enough and I had just enough resources to go, so I just said "Thats what I gotta do, go get a fresh start on my own, and cut all the things not getting me results, and it will just have to work out somehow" So I got a call back from the shelter the following morning after I relocated to a nearby metro, and met a cool person that I've been vibing with as I feel myself coming online more and more... Its like recalling the better versions of myself like its just who I am now. Its pretty cool at the shelter, (i mean there are "bad" people to be around more-often-than-not, but helpful good people as well) I am getting 2 free meals/day, shower, laundry, place to get mail, state health insurance , getting a waiting list for a house in 1-2 months , got a bed , and daily life-skills training (reminding me of like military bootcamp but the homeless lite-bootcamp version) , and signed up for mental health stuff... Definitely something I didn't expect, everybody makes homeless shelters sound horrible but Salvation Army is pretty legit and I got taken care of within an hour of getting here. Well... I just wanted to work on writing/journaling and this felt like Day 1 to my journey... Really been a quick turnaround with going from depression/anxiety/existential crisis/etc to feeling like I am picking up with my better-self like riding a bicycle again. I have not had anybody to talk to for a long time, so I cut my time-wasting addictions out and I'm formulating a strategy for my own success... Like asking questions: "What are daily habits I should work on"" What content do I want to study" "Which communities should I get involved in?" "What are the most important+urgent steps to be taking?" I know people mention Leo's Start Guide here, I am also downloading Optimize app by Brian Johnson, enrolled in free online philosophy courses , have some old personal development masterclasses to go back through, looking at some free self-development training workshops from these online ads, reading some books, going through more good youtube self-actualization (Joseph Rodriquez is a recent favorite discussing like Napolean Hill like subconscious inner-talk stuff, and Tom Bilyeu rocks too) I dont really know what my goal is , but I know my passion is teaching in the 'transcendence' category , and I want to get online making money... I've just always avoided trying to start my own Youtube / TikTok channel, but I am gaining confidence from being in this shelter and meeting this guy who has been showing me around giving me the newb-tour , and its just wild that I assume I would be incredible, but I'm also my own biggest critic , and I am beginning to see the more I push myself to express what I am about, the more positive feedback I get and more pace I pick up with it... So this day feels differerent, it seems the spiral has begun its upward climb, and I've been waiting for the day I would see myself getting momentum again, because I knew I would have nothing to look back to again... And now it begins... "Fly, Phoenix, Fly" Question : When a Phoenix rebirths, is it Day 1 for that Phoenix? Is that an accurate metaphor??? Lmao idk, what do you think? Glad to read any comments you wonderful people wanna respond with. Much love -Kory Added a couple snapshots of this Salvation Army place... i just want to provide information that this place is pretty chill, not as bad as I had thought! Legit got my bed right across from buddy I had met, and there is a pile of tobacco behind my shoulder like community sharing lol.
  14. How do you feel about your life? Dont be afraid to ramble. Its all good here. Much love -Kory
  15. any people working together like holding each other accountable / mutual support going on our life's journey? Maybe like WhatsApp , Discord, or Facebook group for example? So we can share what we are working on , bring up sticking points that we can help each other out with, collaborating on goals and such? Much love -Kory
  16. Planner, note taking, calendar , reminders, you name it... whats hot, easy , and dirt cheap? Much love -Kory
  17. How about situational examples and ways to reframe things the preconceptions leading up to struggling with this? Definitely a thing that a lot of ppl struggle with, why downplay it as "just do it" ?
  18. Yo whats up, Ive wanted a digital hustle for a long time but idk which way to go with it, nor involved with any communities /people to discuss it... Ive wanted to do life-coaching freelance, somebody mentioned joining an agency even... years ago i got my feet wet doing SEO / affiliate marketing... also considered starting with simpler services like making book covers on Fiverr... would love to get into crypto (like day-trading) sooner rather than later i dunno who to follow, which communities to hit up , what would be a good entry-level pursuit (preferably scaleable , and preferably my life-coaching niche) Ive always had a problem trying to sell services as a life-coach as im not shit really on the real, so i dont feel like id have any authority/proof for selling myself as a start. Any suggestions / pointers or whatever would be super awesome... maybe meet somebody that has already started and can relate to where im at and what i need to do to get to next level escaping 9-5 Much love -Kory
  19. like meeting local people that are interested in this stuff? Nothing on Meetup I see really... (Im in a smaller metro)... maybe some kind of events? Going to certain venues? Making a TikTok? What would yall do? -Kory
  20. Practice , not time
  21. @Preety_India an interesting look at BPD I have BPD too , its definitely the worst
  22. I keep having a problem, im always listening and cant get away from people to have silence to myself... people wanna smoke weed and chill but I get bored quickly and then im stuck hearing stories...
  23. like would you start with Leos starter guide on here, or somebody else, maybe certain books or videos in particular? Maybe focusing on certain models or principles maybe? How about financial success? Would u go back to school, or jump into what ur doing now straight away, or work your way up through random skills you can leverage? what about habits, would you start with like meditation or journaling or something? Would u get into therapy or a coaching program, a particular program maybe? Asking for a friend (jk , me); Much love -Kory
  24. , I think its something like that... transcendence i dont have a definition for it myself yet... but to me it seems like when you are aware of your self-awareness and tap into conscious creation of everything at your will... so it is deconstruction processes like separating 'thought' out from your identity as "I" ... but also... It seems like within 'consciously creating' as the paradigm shift, comes with it a 'being present to the moment' Like my profile picture is the self-image i shoot for... a cosmic-titan blacksmith avatar ... some people up this alley on youtube... Joseph Murphy / Neville Goddard (more spiritual deconstruction , and "I am"ness) , Joe Dispenza (most practical explanation of the mind ive found) Eckharte Tolle (the OG of modern Western enlightenment) , David Hawkins (he seems transcended, he says like "I dont want anything to do with this talk, my being here is just an expression of God" or something like that...) Also Owen Cook seems to be the other side of transcendence in the modern life-hacker kind of way
