Any one else care to elaborate on where they are with Leo's ideas now?

When I first looked for something beyond boring regular existence as a Jewish Iranian first generation American I looked for something more than culture, education, a job, and having a family I looked to build a legacy on this Earth by being a voice for school reform for younger generations because I thought the education system we have here and around the world is abysmal because it destroys creativity and doesn't teach life skills so I always wanted young people and students to have a voice about what they think of it and how they're being treated. Then when school and campus shootings were really ramping up in the US and I was still in College I thought about my own mortality if there's an afterlife or not and I didn't want my life to end so abruptly and unfairly. So one of the Jewish youth places I went to invited this atheist turned rabbi Alon Anava who had a near death experience and the way he described his experience was so real and vivid that I believed him and was looking into becoming an orthodox Jew from a conservative Jew. I stumbled upon this extremely stage blue fire and brimstone rabbi Yosef Mizrachi who disgusted me so much with his sermons about eternal punishment in the afterlife for violating Shabbat that I could not reconcile that we could have a god as crazy and delusional as the one he was describing and little by little I was turned off by him. Fast forward to me graduating from College I join this online (scam) course called JumpCut academy that teaches you how to become a successful YouTuber that actually makes money. I joined that in late 2016 basically when Trump became president elect and the Trump hate was at a fever pitch. My YouTube channel Revolutionary Thinking I wanted it to be about societal advancement, education reform, politics, and critical thinking with some comedy and fun sprinkled in. The entire time I had a problem with the culture that the US and the world that's influenced by US especially Hollywood culture lives in. I couldn't stand celebrity obsession, instant gratification, mindless tribalism, and our hyper consumerist society I was looking to create a coalition of critically thinking people that wanted to improve their lives and improve society over all. That's when another person who was in me in that JumpCut course Jeet Tan heard I was like this and he introduced me to @Leo Gura's content. I said FINALLY a person who is outside of that Hollywood celebrity and instant gratification sphere of influence. I was happy I found someone like that. I couldn't stand main stream culture and or society because it was so full of hypocrisy and contradiction. An education is sooo important yet, schools don't teach you about finances, relationships, or life skills. If you get a degree you'll earn a million dollars more than your peers with high school diplomas over a life time yet, plenty of people with degrees working minimum wage jobs, unemployed and underemployed. When I saw Leo's content and actualized.org I jived with it so much because the things I noticed he noticed as well. Although somewhere in the back of my mind I would always day dream and fantasize about an end game and/or a happy ending. It would be me making a speech on education and the proper way the system would work in front of millions of people televised through out the world. I'd be a world renowned visionary or something like that. Then I'd be paid to jet off to other countries and advise people I'd live in a penthouse with a helicopter on it. I'd be an ambassador teaching people good healthy communication skills that saved relationships and I'd bring peace to the world. Yes I understand very grandiose and narcissistic of me but, hey I like having dreams. Then Leo introduced me to another end game in the form of enlightenment. Instead of being an Orthodox Jew I would listen to Leo instead. I liked the way his logic and reasoning worked. Now though I'm stated to think of the entire idea of an end game and/or happy ending being moot as in just a mirage in the desert of life. As a young person I'd always follow the rules I'd keep my hands to myself, come to school on time, listen to the teacher, participate, and keep my grades up. Then in the 08 crash I was told that employers hardly look at grades and they look more at your personality and attitude and as a young person on the spectrum sometimes I'd have trouble socially and I was never told that would be a problem down the road as long as I just kept my grades up I'd do well in life. So it felt as though I busted my behind in school for the promise of a bright future and it all turned out to be a lie. Unfortunately it seems like no matter whatever you do you're always going to be told it's not enough and you didn't do it the right way. There's also a possibility that you find out your teacher/professor/boss/parent/(insert authority figure here) is a fraud and/or doesn't know what their doing and admits to it later. It seems as if I'm seeing a pattern with Leo now. a year goes by he's had an enlightenment... 2 years another more profound enlightenment... 3 years after that the ultimate enlightenment... 4 more years, the super ultimate enlightenment... 5 more years the super duper ultimate enlightenment... 6 more years the super duper enlightenment to end all enlightenments... 7 more years (oops) now this is the REAL super duper ultra ultimate enlightenment to end all enlightenments. As you can see it's becoming a bit absurd to me. If you ever watched Dragon Ball Z and Frieza's power level was over a million in his first transformation and he had two other in addition to that but, little by little even in his final form it was completely meaningless against other later villains like Cell and Majin Buu that's what I think is going on with Leo and his assorted awakenings. It seems like the Jeff Bezos of awakenings is up there and talking about how we'll never actually accumulate as much as he has. Not only that but, it seems as if you're damned if you do and damned if you don't because even if you were the hardest of hard core of his followers he'll tell you that whatever you do is not enough anyway even if you did it all... With this new course he talked about on his blog sounds like the hunger games/squid games of awakenings because there's so many traps and traumas involved when it comes to this stuff. So where am I going what's my point? Good question in the early days me and Leo vibed on so much and I think we still do. Am I angry at him or jealous of him no because we are one and the same in the grand scheme of things. Let's just say I'm confused I am extremely confused WITH ONE MAJOR CAVEAT! In the past my confusion would make me neurotic and frustrated because I NEEDED TO KNOW I needed to feel like the wise sage. That was a function of my ego. Now I do not judge myself for my confusion I love myself for my confusion and I embrace and welcome it. I'm not obsessing over some kind of end game that when it finally happens I can finally be happy and content. I'm confused and go along with it knowing that it's a good thing it's not something to be neurotic about. Life is a journey not a destination and I spent so much of my life having a destination fixation I am happy that I've grown out of it and can embrace the present moment with out constantly obsessing over the past and the future. I have a long way to go and that just makes me that much more excited and thrilled to see what awaits me.

I saw the last blog about the course Leo is talking about the funny thing is when he talked about annihilating yourself. I just had a funny thought if that was an actual add on TV or the internet. Annihilate yourself in 5 easy steps for just $9.99.
-
Dang that was a funny argument with yourself.

Revolutionary Think replied to Leo Gura's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Leo Gura I decided to journal a lot. I am the master of me king of my own destiny. That was a rhyme I used in a poem I wrote. Seriously though my journaling has helped me understand myself a lot. I'm constantly asking questions of myself and getting to know myself more. I don't want to be addicted to anyone else but, myself because I have infinite access to myself. I will not be using your videos like a drug/crutch. They can help me but, at the end of my road I will find myself and make peace and enjoy every last bit of what that is. -
I wonder what Shampoo you use Leo?

Being on an airplane in a window seat talking to a complete stranger from another land about his experiences in life. The fact that people can fly is taken for granted but, not by me. The very fact that we can get on a machine with wings get to know fascinating people while traveling to places we've never seen before is fantastic.
-
What are the steps everyone is going to take after watching Leo's Motivational video to live their best life? What I'm going to do is really immerse myself in the new tech job that I have so I can really dive deep into the work and really love the work. I'm going to create more content for my profile on Twitter Spaces to become the public speaker I always wanted to become an facilitate discussions and debates.
-
I had these people come into my Twitter Space warning about financial and societal collapse because they fed pumped in too much money into the system. Then they started talking about how supply chain breakdowns will lead to hyperinflation and this is why the price of ammo is going up so much. Do these people have some kind of point or do they just have nothing better to do? @Leo Gura you never talk about stuff like this so I'm wondering what your opinion is.
-
It depends maybe I interrupt someone with out realizing it, ask a too personal question, or even make a joke that doesn't quite land. Most of the times I don't know what it is.

I think some time around high school I was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome and I think it plays a big role in my life to this day. Asperger's is known as high functioning autism so I'm wondering with this diagnosis have people with autism 1. become self actualized 2. reached enlightenment and 3. fulfilled a life purpose. It seems that all the time I'm getting somewhere with a project and a group of people where it's starting to come together and things are getting good I piss someone off or someone reads something a little off about me and I have to start over from scratch and it's really starting to get to me and bother me.

The Taliban would be the Talitubbies?

I've started something like that about a month ago.

I think I'm a little bit of both.

And plus he's not even from Thailand so his name is a lie.

I've replaced it with trying to create a body of work I'll be remembered by. Yes there was a level of happiness when I played those games but, faded over time.

you'll just be fingering yourself.

Anyway in all honesty the problem I find with video games is this as a big gamer during my teens and twenties. After you beat the final boss or final puzzle or final (fill in the blank) you get a sense of accomplishment and then you go back to your life and nothings changed in it. Then you go back to the game and you finish it 100% collecting everything doing all the side quests, getting the collectibles, finding and beating the secret bosses etc. then... you go right back to that feeling of OK what else??? Then you pick up a new one same process. Although it is fun in some of them where they have a god mode or you totally maxed out everything and you go back to level one to experiment and play around... then you go right back to that OK NEXT sort of feeling. It's a very empty feeling after that... That empty feeling SUCKS! That's from personal experience. I myself am building a body of work on cyberspace of philosophy, science, and human psychology I want to be proud of and people can remember me for. That's part of my life purpose. It's fulfilling too.

Well technically out of his mind into his fingers

What do you "learn" when jerking off about strategy and how to use all your skills in a way you progress?
-
? What does this mean?

Dan Lok's High Ticket Closer Program it's all here.

So true. In private people are seething or depressed and in public they act as if life is the best ever.
