Seriously? The best evidence that he is a complete idiot is that he is in a F***** CALL with Andrew Tate and other complete weirdos. I bet Tesla and SpaceX was raised by genious designers, engineers etc.. Yes he knew whom to pay and take on his side, he is a good businessman.

Is that happening soon in your opinion?

I logged now on this X dictatorship platform, Musk pinned this call on his account. As he is the clear dictator of the platform, it will become the heaven of fake news, conspiracy theories and shit. I knew this guy is gone but OMG, he is fried from inside.

He got a lot of popularity from his successful businesses and now he tries to influence society with his political and general opinions, and he says such dumb stuff that it makes me feel embarrassed. There is a spectrum of funboyness, agreeing with some good stuff about him is not funboyness, but some see him as a saviour.

If I would have listened to authority figures around me when I was young, I would end up depressed doing heroin maybe. You need to find the authentic intelligence within you aka real intuition and listen to that.

Omg so many Elon Musk fan boys everywhere. This is why I love personal development, it is very hard to be done right, you can't just listen to a father figure to do it right as you would do for learning a basic skill like making money. But yea, getting attached to gurus and ideologies is a hard stage to overcome, god help you kids.

All the nutrition debate nonsense in the west makes me mad. We have the statistics: 3% obesity rate in Japan vs. over 30% in the west(Europe and US) I am curious to hear somebody who lived many years in Japan and what is the food culture there. I believe that they eat mostly rice and veggies instead of wheat products, and less sugar in order to be in so good shape, not counting calories hahah.

Ok, let's say I am a looser dude not working out in my 30s slowly gaining weight because my metabolism is slowing down, and the "I eat what I want and look at my belly" stops working, what should I do?

Nobody is absolutely right, I'll do more research into the colesterol part. I try to combine what people I find trustful said and create a more clear view of the thing. Unfortunately we all still believe people, you believe the people who did the studies you agree with. When you hop on a plane you believe that the engineers did a good job servicing the plane.

She eats crackers with butter, and pasta with sauce. Where are you going with this? it is like: I doubt you eat plain sugar, you eat milk chocolate. And yes, I agree with Dr. Jason Fung, I still have to pick a side in the end. You eighter pick a side or do whatever everybody else does and have the same disastrous results like them.

Why do you still recommend wheat as healhy food? I would not recommend eating wheat, it is addictive, it can create autoimmune diseases, it behaves like sugar in the body. Even whole grain, still just sugar with a bit more fibers and protein. People will just eat like crazy, my gf eats it like crazy when she gets depressed. Maybe eating and treating it as a desert after a healthy meal so it doesn't spike the bloodsugar, and perceive it as a desert, a cheat, not healthy food.

great to hear that man there is hope.

Yes, and wheat products are so cheap and taste so good that people will eat like crazy, I saw my gandfather eating half kg of bread at one meal. You just take a warm bread in your hands and keep eating. In Romania we even have a saying: It sells like warm bread.

word. ok, no point in arguing with you.

Read books about diabetes and obesity. My grandma's generation ate virtually no junk food and still got fat, because of eating bread and occasionally sugar.

I had a chinese client at massage, she said whenever she comes to stay in Europe, she becomes fat, and when she returns, she loses weight like magic. Culture influences us a lot, instead of changing the food culture, we gaslight people into believing it is all their fault.

Yes! middle east same problems.

yess, I heard that they eat KFC for Christmas now. You can see how a stupid company brainwashed a whole country and changed the culture with some basic advertisements.

The type of gaslighting you find in a typial cult is found in the SD stage orange bubble. No results? It is your fault. Self-help is poisoned with these toxic gurus who don't give a damn about people but enriching themselves. I find SD stages as mini cultures in which you are drawn No matter which SD stage from tier 1, when too many immature people join the mini culture of the stage, it becomes toxic. Be careful to integrate blue and orange tough, just because you find stage green appealing, but you are a 19 year old entitled immature kid, you'll turn stage green into a weapon to justify your mediocrity. Just by parroting: equality, rights, justice does not make you stage green. You just made a shadow of stage blue and orange instead of integrating them.

Are you joking right? You really think that social media will help kids? It turns them into zombies

If what you are teaching there is simple and interesting for them, and taught in a ferm and skillful way, they would naturally become more quiet and pay attention to the class. If they don't feel you are one of them, teach them interesting stuff and understand their position, no amount of threatenings, punishments and other stage blue solutions will work. Just look how quiet and focused they are when they play on the computer, there is none punishing them there. My math teacher from highschool was using this typical stage blue approach of punishment, but beacuse her classes were super boring and completely useless, we were still loud or just ignoring the class altogether. Funny story: I was volunteering at a children's educational project in a village in Romania, there was a very undiciplined, problematic bully type child there, they wanted to kick him out. But I said let me try a different approach first. I befriended him, talked about his interrests in cars and stuff, tried to get in his camp. He said: "I hate these trainers here with their boring bullshit" I said: "I get you, I also got annoyed of many boring uninteresting classes at school too, we can do it another way" I spent most days around him explaining in a more simple manner what they said at trainings and till the end of the project he become more and more interested into the subjects and even built a solar powerd car, I helped him a bit.

@Princess Arabia so see? We two did not get one bit of help from this conversation, people just tell their opinion, understand what they want and waste time. Debatig is a waste of time especially here where the communication is very poor.

@jimwell the ego will do anything possible, will play all possible tricks so that you don't change your behaviour for the better or for the worse. It will try to play games of wisdom and knowledge with other egos on the internet or face to face. Just check how much talk is here in the spirituality section. I bet most people here cannot fix basic stuff in their life like having a healthy social life surrounded by sound and good people, or eating healthy and exercising. How can you convince me you found God and shit when you can't even clean your room properly? God cleans his room, eats healthy, has a job that he loves doing, and does not spend time talking shit. We have serious problems in the world right now, we need people to change their behaviour and come to tier 2 level of acting and thinking. Put that Maslow's piramid on your wall!

I get it, good luck ?

Depends on who we are reffering to, I believe most people are at such a low level here, that they should not waste all their time here, but contemplating, meditating, reading and having real direct experiences. Any stupid kid can come with smart posts and topics, the real change is in our behaviour. If you think it helps to stay here all day, do it, who am I to say you shouldn't. But be honest with yourself and ask: Did I change my behaviour in the last year? Ideas and knowledge mean nothing if your behaviour is the same, if you and the people around you(whom you influence) still suffer exactly like before.
