The nerve!
Yoga instructors are known to be pot smokers and deadbeats. Yoga is unscientific spiritual mumbo-jumbo which is only good for preforming fellatio on myself because having orgasms is better than improving my body or mind, check science if you disagree

I think that pretty much sums up the "depth" of TTT's logic right there.

I'm actually into yoga, just kidding. I probably like it better than sex.

qman said: You sound very immature and rude in your writings, why say a statement like "I would never be satisfied with myself being a yoga instructor".
It is an immature statement. I bet that within 5 or 10 years, TTT will see that bit differently. When I was 20 I used to think like that too.
Funny story btw: I have a friendwho studied physics and then proceeded to go to the most prestigious business school in the country. Talking about potential: he developed all the potential he had. After getting the diplomas, he started to work as a consultant. But then guess what? His intellectual and professional development was rewarding, sure (both financially and emotionally), but there was still an unfulfilled feeling. Something was missing. And then the whole spiritual awakening came. He started doing yoga, meditation, he split up with his long-time girlfriend (who was and still is a workaholic), started his own business in consulting and he started to work 2 or 3 days a week instead of 5 or 6. And he became a yoga instructor. He's probably the most enlightened, well-balanced person I have ever met.
Moral of the above story? Talent is one thing, but fulfillment is another. If you are a brilliant businessman but your heart isn't in business, then I am convinced that from a personal and a societal perspective, you probably create more value (including non-financial value) if you decide to do something that you really go for.

I never claimed to have achieved anything great but I suppose you can continue making assumptions about me.

Good grief. No wonder nobody takes you seriously. I don't think I've ever heard of someone with so little life experience deriving so much false confidence from her prejudice.

Im guessing youve never taught strength toning or balance.
i cant speak for yoga but back when i trained the talent of my coaches was irreplacable yet thier skillset is not as esteemed as it deserves to be.
"At the top of the mountain we are all snow leopards"-HST
what i took that quote to mean was that at the peak of your profession or hobby you are the same as others who have reached their peak in their profession.
Although the details are different, the sense of absolute confidence and the way that your life completely changes for the better are almost identical no matter what you pursue as long as its to the best of your abilities.
Anyways i dont know why u are getting so much shit.
even if u thought yoga was a gay dishonorable profession, thats your right.

TTT said: I am so confused. I am being honest!
So am I. And I swallowed a lot of my words before I even typed them, but there comes a point at which I can't keep em in anymore either. And this is it. You're getting the truth now, and all of it. I hope it will help you in one way or another.
Quote:
That IS what yoga is.
Perhaps for some people, but for most yoga practitioners I know, it is more about the meditative aspect of it.
Quote:
I actually really respect yoga, it's just not what I would do with my life.
Sure, and I respect that. What everybody is falling over is that every time something isn't the right thing for you at this point in time, you make it seem like it is despicable altogether. Get it through to your: the fact that you don't like something doesn't mean that others shouldn't like it either. If you find yoga a waste of your talent, then fine, but it isn't a waste of talent to some other people; hence my earlier example of the businessman-turned-yoga instructor. And if you think NSA doesn't work for you, then fine again, but it works perfectly for others. You keep going to great lengths to somehow attempt to justify your personal views on the basis of a more general theory (you don't like NSA because it is doomed to fail, you don't want to become a yoga instructor because it would be a waste of your talent) but sooner or later, you'll have to acknowledge that those 'insights' are nothing more than your personal feelings.
Quote:
What I am trying to do with my life is a bit more difficult, that is all.
It would be easier if you drew a more distinct line between your personal views and generic knowledge. I'm pretty sure of that.
Quote:
Too bad it's just the Shroomery that seems to think of me as a naive, stupid, immature 20 yr old nothing with no potential.
1. Shroomery is home to a lot of intelligent people. They may not all be thoughtful or politically correct, and there's a few retards among us as well, but you can count on it that if you annoy people here, you annoy people in real life. The difference is that the latter may not have the balls to speak up to you. It's your choice if you want to maintain that situation or if you want to show that your mind is a lot more open than you make it out to be. 2. You are naive and immature in the sense that you appear to be unaware of the fact that you come across differently from how you are. I believe you are an intelligent, sensitive and open-minded person who is genuinely trying to learn from others in order to develop herself. But you often come across in this forum as a belligerent, annoying and arrogant person who has no respect at all for the choices other people make in their lives. I used to be exactly the same when I was 20. I'm still the same at 30, but now I'm at least aware of it and sometimes, when I think it's appropriate, I can hide it. I can only recommend you to do the same - you'll learn a lot that way. 3. You definitely have potential, but it's going to go nowhere if you don't open up to other people. Wisdom isn't only in your physics books. It's in every conversation, in every relationship and -yes- even in every meaningless act of lustful sex. If you can't learn from that, then that doesn't say something about those things - it says something about you.
Quote:
Please answer something for me: Why is this thread turning into a thread trying to bash me when I haven't insulted anyone in this thread at all?
See above: it's your trying to justify your own choices and bashing the choices of others in the process. I'm a tolerant and patient person with a huge amount of respect for other people's views, shortcomings and strengths, but that aspect of your posts irritates the FUCK even out of me. So there you have it.
And again, don't get me wrong - I respect your views and who you are. Sou seemed genuinely puzzled why you get so much flack on this forum and I thought I'd give my 2cts.

When I said naive realist, it doesn't and shouldnt carry the connotation of age...you can be a naive realist at 80. It is a method of perception based upon the theory that your percieved experiences tranfer over to others.
ex I eat a lemon and it is sour, everyone who tastes a lemon experiences the same thing that I do
A transactionist perception would be
I taste the lemon and it is sour, there is something going on with the lemon and there is something going on with me. Everyone perceives the lemons flavor differently than I do..even people who thinks its sour perceive the sour differently than I do.
As far as the Yoga Instructor chestnut going around here, You are taking the job of Yoga instructor literally, not as the metaphor that it is. Many people study for one career, and may abandon it after a few years in the field (disallusionment)or simply never pursue a career in their chosen discipline at all. It is very common.
The notion that we must all have some career that confers a high degree of respect and status is simply a mendacity put forth by corporate america and Institutitions of secondary and post secondary education in westernized society. It is a notion that insist upon itself and satisfies someone elses goals...not your own.

TTT,
What I have noticed in my years of experience, the people that have accomplished the most, talk very little about their achievements.
The people that have big plans for the future, talk very little about their goals, only if asked for the most part.
The people that are high earners respect all types of work, why? Because they most likely worked all types of jobs in their younger days, and appreciate the work ethic involved in all types of jobs.
The people that value the most meaningful relationships with their partners are the less likely to preach or judge others of their sexual habits.
I have seen people degrade others because of the cloths they wear or the car they drive, they were surprised when I tell them they have millions of dollars of net worth and high level degrees from some of the best universities in the country.
The point is prejudging other people and talking yourself up non stop is not going to get you very far, people will see through it, like many on this board have done.

That, and those people recognize the interdependencies and connectedness between all types of work, which is a prerequisite for surviving and thriving in high-ranking positions. But that's even more off-topic than the rest of this page...

TTT said: I had to stop reading. I am just not going to reply. You guys have an entirely warped view of how I am.

dont take it too personally
Im a junkiewhore monster tard to most on here but am actually pretty chill irl.
Edit; also fuck what these dudes think and thier stupid labels.
Perception IS Reality IMO. So whatever you believe, no matter how fuked ppl think it sounds, it will become so for you. Belief, without a doubt, is the strongest tool we humans have. it has beaten cancer and paralysis so its definitely capable of getting people to conform to your reality.
Tldr; Read up on Frame control and Creating your own reality...
IRL thangs are completly different. Body language and so much more play huge roles in getting people to accept your way of thinking. IF you believe something without a doubt and this belief improves your quality of life its radiates off of you. When i am at my peak people gravitate to me and things just fall into place. If i got on here to explain it, which i have, id just get called a narcissistic egomaniac. That has even happend IRL but the difference is IRL i ended up sexing the person who thought i was full of myself and couldnt, as i bragged, get whatever and whoever i want.
but i did. and it was great.

No, sorry, no, they don't. Damn manager mentality. People who sell their soul as shady manipulators get paid, and the people who do "work" get fucked over by shady manipulators who want to take credit for this work.
I think this thread proves that we are too prone to emotions and getting stuck in our ways to ever have NSA anything.
