Super old Leo vid changed my perspective

[WonderSeeker]

I'm 27.

3-5 years ago I was a college hippy.

I binge-watched Leo's deepest teachings to achieve awakenings:

• sober
• on LSD

I read Ken Wilber, Peter Ralston.

Went deep on all of it.

Then college (vacation) ended.

I realized I had to stop being spiritual and figure survival out.

Today I'm still figuring it out.

I can't re-watch any of Leo's metaphysical videos because they don't help me survive lol.

(Ironic because I used to not care about survival as much).

Anyways, I did some digging and found this old gem.

Almost 12 years since:

Most of the forum probably has never seen this video before.

Nor will they watch it.

It doesn't breach the profound threshold.

But for me it's exactly what I needed to hear.

In this video Leo shares the core concept of life purpose.

He goes into his journey:

• college
• game designer
• internet marketing biz
• life coaching biz

What's cool is I feel like I'm a vibrational match to who he is in this video.

I'm ~6 months into my first business.

But I'm dead-aware it's just a step in my journey.

It's one of those outer layers I'm peeling back in my life purpose (credit David Deida on the analogy).

I deeply resonate with this journey, starting off by knowing what you want...

Then shifting gears to express other values that weren't getting the love they deserved...

To building skillsets (such as sales/marketing/speaking) to be able to:

• express certain parts of yourself...
• generate long-term, sustainable income...

So Leo, thank you for keeping these old videos of you up.

I think current-me and 12-16 years-ago you are parallel lives.

Crazy how there seems to be a sequencing to all growth in people.

And ironically, it's comforting to know that all this pain I feel as I grow...

Even when I feel like I'm back-peddling)...

Is actually leading to awesomeness.

Thank you brother.

Your post reminded me of those two videos that I watched today that are super old but really good.
