awsome post, I like how honest you are and describe things that were important for you, makes me wanna do the retreat myself

Yes, from my experience there is strong corelation between sex drive and drive for sucess with translates to sucess. Isn't it kind of obvious.

I'm interested, how is the work going

This whole thing (personal development) seem like basically overthinking life, what's the point, why don't just roll with it. Just follow your instinct and go hard there's not much more to say. If you're meant for greatness, "self actualization" or whatever you'll get there anyway.

Exactly, we're all just chimps in here, specificly chimps trying to avoid being a chimp, that's so ridiculous. Does a dog spend it's days trying to avoid being a dog ?

Your world view will always turn off some people no matter what kind of world view do you have, that's just reality.

@zunnyman I might not be most competent preson to aswer this but from my perspective trying to get enlightened as soon as possible most likley will be neurotic and bring opposite results.

@jse You're body takes care of that by itself, you simply have a wet dream.

slightly off topic but if we talking about enlightened/spiritual Hollywood celebrities check out Rick Rubin

Do it. Starting a vlog almost always seems like a good ide, especially if you got something interesting to share and you seem like you do. Looks like you already know it and just looking for validation. Just do it. Out of curiosity, what's your age and how long ago you started playing ?

Sometimes I remember my happiest moments and tell myself thats nothing compared to what life can be like.

You must bring value to them somehow so they feel obliged to pay you back and they do it in this way, or they just are nice people who want to help, but based on what you say I would bet for the first option. Nevertheless, there is no point to scratch your head about this just accept the free food dude like what the fuck.

About a year ago I met this girl that was what I called "naturally enlightned", self aware and high conscious etc. I went through a heartbreak and that made me realize how much presonal development I got to do and pointed me towards Leo's videos and all of that. I got into this stuff and had some deep realizations, went through something that's refered as "dark night of the soul" also I experience depersonalization. I realized that my major and path that I'm currently pursuing is not my life pourpose and I wont be able to actualize fully if I continue down this way. I also became much more aware of peope's emotions/motivations behind certain actions and how society works in general, this made relating to people close to me very hard. I feel like they don't see the bigger picture I'm seeing and this makes me feel really loenly. I alos experience terrible mood swing, drastic change of mood from morning to evening. Deep down I realize that there is a huge ponential for growth here but I feel so confused and uncertain that I don't take any action and don't even know what I got to do. I also feel like big part of my motivation behind this is negative becous it's coming from fear of not knowing what to do with my life and social pressure and I don't know how to deal with it. Often I just feel like I want to forget all of this stuff and go back to my previous life when i felt quite happy. How do I become grounded agian and stop feeling uncomplete and anxious. It's so hard to do anything becouse everything feels meaningless, how do I get myself to feel passionate and motivated agian and get better grasp of reality. If anyone got some advice that might help me I would really appreciate it.

In highshool I was good at math and logic oriented, I went on to study mechanical engineering I had narrow undestanding of life and tought it's a decent choice becouse of good income etc. And for the first 2 years it was good and probably happiest period of my life, I was very motivated and although I was doing alot life felt effortless. At the end of my second year thing that I described in first post happend and I started to realize that this is not my life pourpose and I won't reach my highest potential going this way. I alos became much more intuitive and got this need of expressing myself, doing something creative. I became super unmotivated and going to university started to be painful and depressing. I never was very intrested in this stuff but before I had this sence of progressing in life and it gave me so much energy and kept me going. Now I feel like continuing my study is pointless and brings no growth. I got some ideas what to do but I haven't taken any action on them becouse I still feel very confused, over the past year it's been massive ammount of emotional labour and radical change of outlook on life. While I had all this realizations and insights my external world didn't manage to catch up or I'd rather say I didn't make necessary changes. Now it's significantly better that it was at my lowest momments few months ago but I still feel ungrounded and uncertain what to do. I know that I need to change like 80% of my current lifestyle but I don't know where to start and feel stuck in my old ways.

Thanks for the resoponse. I like your advice but I'm not so sure about the therapist, isint taking anit-anxiety meds like trying to neglect the issue instead of dealing with it ?

how do you " switch into abundance " ?

https://www.twitch.tv/athenelive/v/103521422 Lisent to his answer to question in 1:42:00 Do you agree with that ? Any thoughts ?

It makes prefect sense at least to me. Why you act like I'm trying to convince to his ideas, I just explained why you don't vibe with him. disclamer: I'm not trying to convince people to his ideas etc. I just found his work really interesting and wanted to spark debate on that hoping that someone on this forum might know him and his recent talks (also "the click" concept). That's depends on your definition of consciousness, I think you know what I meant. Clearly there must have been some mechanism that allowed matter to evolve into humans that are self aware. That mechanism is logic. Acting based on logic allows to evolve further.

It's not about enlightenment work. It's about what people describe as "feeling connected with the being", I have seen anyone describe that as painful yet.

It's not compulsive, quite contrary it's the most natural thing. After all it's the force that made consciousness develop from one cell organisms to such complex structures as humans, it is what allows all the evolutional progress and it is what allow us to have this discussion right now on the internet which is product of development driven by logic. Also it is most likely thing that will make consciousness develop from what it is right now(humanity) to higher forms. Don't be prejudiced. From what I understand from his other talks he's very aware of his arrogant approach but he does this becouse he simply believes it's the most effective way of spreading the message to low conscious people. And his main goal is spreading this awareness.

ENTP Very interesting topic, you should add a survey in the first post.
