why is it important for you to encourage others to begin the journey towards self-actualization?

what types of things do you do for fun?

1) I like to share deep insights with people.

2) At this point, very little. My life is mostly centered around my work and purpose. Fun for me is either doing my work, doing nothing, taking a long road trip, being out in nature, hanging out with a girl.

As far as cheap low-grade entertainment goes:

  • I'll play a video game once in a while
  • I'll watch some funny political commentary from the Daily Show or Stephen Colbert
  • I'll browse tech news websites like The Verge

You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

Leo, I know from your various videos, that you with family moved from Russia long time ago. What were the reasons for your immigration, how did you handle "cultural shock" and what was your first impression on USA?
 

Was Leonid your russian name?  :)

@Leo Gura What are your thoughts on Kurt Cobain? Why is/was he an inspiration to millions of people? His life is such an amazing and beautiful story.

I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you ;) Yes, it was a lot of effort.

Was one of your methods include making videos "chimpery"?

Normal pace. I can speed-read but I don't like to.

1) Most of them you wouldn't know. Barrack Obama is probably a good public example of yellow. Which is why the right demonizes him. Blue and Orange can't stand Yellow.

2) I don't really seek to change society. I just like sharing insights with whoever wants to hear them.

Reason for immigration was that communist Russia sucked balls compared to the US.

I liked the US instantly, but it took me many years to learn how Americans think.

I've never thought about retiring. My work is my life and vice versa. Even if I go live in a cabin in the woods until I die, I will still consider that my work.

I don't ever feel a need to donate money because I strive to make my life and my work my donation to the world.

Fantastic answer. You're an inspiration! That was beautiful.

What does a typical work day schedule look like (in a minute to minute basis)?
How many hours do you work per day? Do you have off days?

My work and daily life pretty much blend so it's very hard to separate the two. I don't work set hours.

I probably work 50 to 70 hours per week on average.

I generally try not to work Sat or Sun. But I still publish videos and answer lots of comments, sometimes for hours on Sunday.
