  1. I'm pretty excited. Definitely inspired by my gf. She makes money below the poverty line yet she has a shitload of money in her savings, she can move out of her parents house whenever she wants! She spent her money intelligently and intentionally. It's so much easier than I thought. I can pay off bills ahead of time and then my next paycheck can go to other things.
  2. I'd say when you feel peace about your finances. Not worrying about bills, having everything paid on time or even ahead of time. Success in this case is another word for flowing or aligned. If I'm making minimum wage but I got my bills paid off and I'm saving money too and it's growing, I'd call that financial success.
  3. I just want to make sure because the writings can be aligned but the persons life may not reflect the writings. Why read someone's aligned thoughts when it isn't unfolding in their own lives? I meant lived like he was a grown man later after Jesus death. Paul has written a lot of gems. His books are amazing.
  4. It finally dawned on me last night that your financial success has nothing to do with how much money youre making, but how youre spending the money you already have. Such a simple yet life changing insight. Another insight is the power of taking responsibility for your mistakes. Like just owning that you messed up.
  5. The apostle Paul was a Jewish Roman citizen who lived a couple decades after the death of Jesus. He would go on to murder Christians until he suddenly lost his sight and the voice of Jesus said "Saul, why do you persecute me?". After this experience he changed his name to Paul and would go on to be one of the most influential figures in Christianity. His faith was unshakeable. Truly amazing. I want to know if this man was deluded or not. He often speaks about accepting Jesus Christ as our lord and savior because he died for us. But then he spits some nondual gems like "I die daily".
  6. The last dream I had last night was of those zombies from 28 days later coming and I was in a pick up truck.
  7. That's a good idea! Yea man I think I'm just stressed out, I wanna chill.
  8. Yea It drives me nuts, it's an open office space with people talking on the phone and customers everywhere and then the sales managers are playing music on their portable speaker and shootin the shit. I'm like get me outta here!!!! I can find another job. One that pays well.
  9. Well...no one has technically said that, but that's the vibe I get sometimes. That "the point" is to be like super duper happy and making stuff all the time.
  10. It's just that the language used in this forum is so lovey dovey like oh God yes I'm in alignment I'm gonna accomplish everything and I love everyone, I AM LOOOOOVE!!!!!! so to me it's like if I'm not on that wavelength I haven't done enough emotion work or whatever. Why can't I just be chill 😂
  11. Yea those Tao quotes you mentioned earlier (not sure where it's from) are good. Just letting the mud settle before taking action. The thing is my job is sales which requires you to go go go. Learning to love the middle huh.
  12. I've actually been meditating daily too! That's what's got me fucked up 😭
  13. I have the book actually 🙂 But of course, thank you.
  14. I'm feeling better now, I just don't care anymore about anything. I think the cycle will repeat itself tomorrow.
  15. It feels pretty nice until I realize I still have to go to work tomorrow. And I'm also in debt and fucked. I really don't, I don't know anything, I may just go Ramana maharshi mode and walk around in my underwear in the wild and meditate all day.
  16. I feel so weak. Like a weakling. I've tried all the self help shit and meditation daily and prayer and whatnot but no matter what I feel like a weakling. I feel inferior. Like the whole universe is destroying me and I'm helpless and weak. Feels like everyone I see is better than me. I feel this in my balls and my core area. I feel afraid and weak. I may be sick or something, I don't have the money to solve this issue. All this thought oriented self help stuff doesn't help a physical ailment. When will this end? I feel so weak and done with all of this. I'm fucking all over the place. Why am I so weak? How can my weakness be strength?
  17. Yea it's all made up. If you see any-thing in front of you, that's delusion. If you can't see/taste/touch/hear/feel, that's truth, freedom from mind identification. And still....the rent check comes in the mail...
  18. I thought this video was fun, I really just watch this stuff for entertainment every now and then.
  19. Manifestation has nothing to do with self.
  20. One thing I will say on a serious note that ive learned is: after the spiritual awakening put your head down and do all the "work" , resolve behavioral issues via therapy or some modality, journal, be as human as possible and just open up and admit all the conditioning and fucked up stuff with loved ones. Let the universe (mom, dad, friends, family, etc.) know that you can use some help, and the universe will help you clean up. After the spiritual awakening there can be a strong inclination to bypass all of the "work" and be like oh there's no one to do anything so I'm already happiness and it's alright. Meanwhile you're hurting people emotionally and destroying your own life. Which I have done and it's truly not worth it.
