@Gabriel Antonio isn't it because we aviod pain that causes neuroticism and will power action and effort is what you use to heal(for lack of better word) it? I rember in a video called how to deal with strong negative emotions leo said something similar

sometimes it can be easy to aviod problems and just do them later but sometimes it can actually make things worse if you wait to long what if you instead face everything 24/7? i think it would be interesting to know if leo have some information on facing everything 24/7 kind regards

I think a video on how to make true improvement in personal development would be cool but also because it could give a more clear idea of how you should improve if you want to make true progress for example if you are an neurotic person an not aware of it an begin to start making improvement from there could your improvements just be adding an extra layer on your problems or not truly fix the real cause of the problem? And so the time you spend trying to fix your problems doesn't really give you any benefits and are most likely wasted. I know leo have a video called the art of solving problems permanently which is really cool but it would be awesome if he could make an other video thats maybe goes deeper in to the topic or exspand on the topic for example it looks like being radical honesty (a pretty good book) also talk a little similar about to this hope it makes sense kind regards

He talks about the topic in less than 5/10 minutes in one of the most useful concepts I have found so far

This video might be help full http://www.phillipwells.com/2015/03/scott-peck-on-love.html I highly recommend reading the full book (the road less traveled) by scott m peck

I personal think the key is self discipline even when you aren't motivated just keep going because you know it's important

@LaucherJunge i am not denying that but what i mean is for example you could still be fully aware off something that's difficult to do for example something you know you want to say to an other person or if it's hard to meet new people face to face or for example if there is a difficult math problem you need to learn and then chose not to do it or just do it later when you feel more ready to do it or for example if you are fully aware that you have a fear of height and then chose not to take the airplane you know you should have chosen what i mean by faceing everything is what if you instead of waiting until you feel ready to do it or just to do it later you face it now even if it might be a difficult situation as there could be some disadvantage to chose to do it later(for example it might actually make it even more difficult to face the situation) but if this is what you mean then it's just an other way of saying it which i agree with ?

Hi i am thinking that a lot of problems can come from lack of facing difficult situations and sometimes things can get worse if one is waiting to face it later but what if you face every single thing that is happening to you 24/7? A bit similar to how leo explain to deal with strong negative emotions here Any thoughts on this? kind regards

@LaucherJunge i am not really sure if it's the same thing as you could still be present and chose not face a specific situation

@LaucherJunge i mean pretty much every single(no matter how small or how big) thing both situations outside and inside (but of course it's important to take full responsibility also)

I don't really think it adds an extra layer of dimension but that it just exist in the 3rd dimensions like other things does Here is something that might be interesting

Fully feel the emotion without resistance and really dig deep (maybe even deeper than you first might think) into the source of a problem and to fine a permanent solution (always look inside for the solution not outside) an other thing that really help to get results is to set a lot of time to only doing what you want to improve and nothing else http://mindfulbydesign.com/not-all-effort-is-created-equal/ These are the two videos where he talks about it if i rember right here is also an other good one if the goals is to be more confident An other thing you could do to get more confidence is to write like you would with a journal but with the goal to be more conscious where you lack confidence through out the day so for example everytime you lack confidence write it down but try to write it in as much detail as possible this i think will help to be more aware of where you want to improve your confidence

I highly recommend watching this

the only thing i really know about time travel is that its only possible to travel to the future but not the past if you travel at the speed of light in space for some years and come back to earth, earth should have gone through more time than you have

i am not sure if this works for everyone but what helped me was to just to work hard anyway but also find time to relax afterwards so i could re-charge and be ready and again the next day this is one of the best videos i have seen to solve ones problems its pretty mindblowing

Maybe don't do so much at the same time (or for so long) but make a list on what most important and then do the most important thing first and then the next one after once your done sorry if i missunderstood

The title really says it all i think it would be nice to know how to be able to permanently get rid of mental defenses because maybe it's the only way to truly make progress on ones personal development and it can also limit what you are able to do and achieve (and probably a lot of other things) kind regards

@TJ Reeves *space exploration as a safety net for issues with sustainability ---- > don't make the planet so dirty you have to leave in the first place! * if i remeber right i am pretty sure the reason for space exploration was to increase the chance for humans survival and to avoid what will happen to humans(or just living things) if we stay on earth when the sun dies (quote from a website): *when the sun expands into a red giant during the throes of death, it will vaporize the Earth* and that is a very real problem even if there is a long time until it happens just thought it was worth to mention

personal i haven't found any solid evidence that iq is what people say it is or that it is even real how ever mostly the reason people get the results they get to me seems most likely is about *how* people do what they do for example how well you do when learning something deepend on how intensly you concentrate on what you are learnig on and also maybe how bored you are(due to attention residue) i highly recommend reading deep work by cal newport he argues that focus(and that it is also a skill) is the new iq(a lot of famous thinkers for example had to concentrate in isolation to get their best work done even people like einstein, issac newton and richard feynman) an other example that it matters how you do it is for example in personal development i have read that a good way to overcome fears is to fully fell the emotion without restance but if you do resist chance are you won't get the same result you would have got that if you fully feel the emotion so i think how you do what you do(and i think your self image also plays a role) is probably most important to get the result you might want and that your iq is probably irrelevant as leo said an other thing that might be interesting is that the most likely reason some peolpe was really good at something was because they didn't just pratice but that they did delieberate pratice which is a good way to become really good at something compared to if you don't do delieberate pratice so an other example that it matters how you do what you do

Mastering your emotions actualized playlist

what are the most interesting concepts you have found on self development/Self-actualization?

i think some good books on how to study effectively are how to beomce a straigt a student by cal newport and deep work by the same author also a mind for numbers by barbara oakley some research by cal newport says that the more you concentrate with high intensity the more you will get done in less time but the lower your intensity is the longer it takes to get the task done hope you can use it kind regards
