What are the Fundamentals?

8 posts in this topic

So I was brainstorming about what are the fundamentals of Self-Actualization or the Heroes Journey. Since one of the ideas Leo often comes back to is this analogy, that if you want to build a Skyscraper you need a solid foundation. Some of the things that came to my mind and where I was building my foundation over the last years is:

  • Self-Esteem: The 6 Pillars of Self Esteem by Nathanael Branden has good exercises to understand and increase your self-esteem
  • Self-Love
  • Learn to embody and internalize the right principles: Leo mentioned many in his videos
  • Find out your own values: There are many exercises you can do. Leos Life-Purpose-Course, or Daniel Schmachtenbergers Dharma Inquiry is good for that
  • Health, Fitness
  • Emotional Mastery
  • Basic Meditation Practice
  • Guiding Frameworks

What would you add to the list? Do you agree with the list? What would you regard as foundation/fundamentals?

I think that from that video, Principle 54: Master your basic survival and livelihood is a good one. I am trying to work on ths principle from time to time.

@Cireeric I think 'developing work ethic/ discipline' is another key one


Be-Do-Have

There is no failure, only feedback

Do what works

SD is a good model to figure out what you lack in. If you just try to integrate and master each stage you'll probably go through all the fundamentals
