Sad indeed. All this preaching about how to conduct your life is really nothing more than Axels lack of success with woman 🥴

If you look at successful people, their self talk is different. They say to themselves, "How can I make more money...?" and "Is she worthy to spend time with me...?" and "Is she in my league..?" In other words, they talk to themselves from a position of high self worth.
Talk about sad. That speaks no more of real success than its opposite. It speaks of children learning to be adult by imitation.
It wasn't very inspiring was it!
About as much as 'They say to themselves, "How can I get to eat more burgers...?"'

Axel is an open book for anyone who has a basic understanding of psychology. His last post is riddled with insecurities- as aptly pointed out. Explains the alphabet thing. Confidence does not manifest itself by standing on soap boxes, preaching convoluted morals. “Talking to ur self” becomes about attempts to build some sort of esteem- something subconsciously is known to be sadly lacking.
T
Stands for transcendence, timeless awareness, talent bank, and tithing. My personal experience is that without transcendence, life has no beauty. In order to live a full life it is necessary to go beyond all boundaries. As the Sufi poet Rumi has said, “Out beyond ideas of right-doing and wrong-doing there is a field. I’ll meet you there. “I feel that my experience of transcendence through the practice of meditation gives me an inner stability and silence that is not overshadowed by any activity. That silence stay with me so that no outer experience can overshadow the awareness and experience of the self.
“T” also stands for timeless awareness, as opposed to time-bound awareness. Time-bound awareness occurs when we relinquish the self for the self-image. The self-image is the social mask, the protective veneer behind which we hide. In time-bound awareness our behavior is always influenced by the past and by anticipation and fear of the future. Time-bound awareness is burdened by guilt and sorrow. It is rooted in fear. It causes entropy, aging, and death. Timeless awareness is the awareness of the self.
The Vedic seer says, “I do not worry about the past and I am not fearful of the future because my life is supremely concentrated in the present, and the right response comes to me, to every situation as it occurs.” This is also the STATE OF BLISS. The self is not in the realm of thought. It’s in the gap between our thoughts. The cosmic psyche whispers to softly in the gap between our thoughts. This is also what we call intuition. Time-bound awareness is in the intellect; it calculates. Timeless awareness is in the heart; it feels.
“T” also stands for talent bank. In order to maximize creativity and offer the best service, it is good to develop a talent bank or a coterie of individuals with unique and diverse talents and abilities and whose individual talents, when added together, are more than the sum of the parts.
“T” also stands for tithing. Tithing means giving away a certain portion of your income without conditions or strings attached. When you give, a vacuum is created that attracts even more of what you have given away. As Emerson said, “Without a rich heart, wealth is an ugly beggar.”
U
Stands for understanding the unity behind all diversity. Unity consciousness is a state of enlightenment where we pierce the mask of illusion which creates separation and fragmentation. Behind the appearance of separation is one unified field of wholeness. Here the seer and the scenery are one.
We experience unity consciousness when we are in love, when we are with nature gazing at the stars or walking on the beach, listening to music, dancing , reading poetry, praying, and in the silence of meditation. In unity consciousness, we slip through the barrier of time into the playground of eternity, as when we say,
“The beauty of the mountain was breathtaking time stood still.” Then you and the mountain become one. At a very deep level of awareness, we know you and I and the mountain and everything else is the same Being in different disguises. This is the state of love—not as a sentiment, but as the ultimate truth, at the heart of all creation.
V
Stands for values: truth, integrity, honesty, love, faith, devotion, and beauty. The great Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore says, “When we feel beauty, we know it as truth.” Without values, there is confusion and chaos. When values disintegrate everything disintegrates. Health disintegrates, poverty attains dominance over affluence, societies and civilizations crumble. When we pay attention to these values that society has always held sacred, then order emerges out of chaos, and the field of pure potentiality inside us becomes all-powerful, creating anything it desires.
W
Stands for wealth consciousness without worries. Wealth consciousness implies absence of money worries. Truly wealthy people never worry about losing their money because they know that wherever money comes from there is an inexhaustible supply of it.
Once, when we were discussing a world peace project with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, somebody asked him, “Where is all the money going to come from?” And he replied without hesitation, “From wherever it is at the moment.”
X
Stands for expressing honest appreciation and thanks to all who help us. We must never pretend appreciation, but if we feel it, then we must express it. The expression of gratitude is a powerful force that generates even more of what we have already received.
Y
Stands for youthful vigor. We experience health when our identity of who we are comes from reference to the self. When we identify with objects, whether they are situations, circumstances, people, or things, then we relinquish our energy to the object of reference. As a result. We feel lack of energy and vitality. When our identity comes from the self, then we keep our energy to ourselves. We feel energetic, we feel powerful, and we experience youthful vigor.
Z
Stands for zest for life. It is to appreciate life in all its vitality and exuberance. It is to know that there is only one life that expresses itself in myriad forms. To see that life is to know that power is in the present moment. It is to know that I am that, that you are that, that all this is that, and that’s all there is.
Tagore once said, “The same stream of life that runs through the world runs through my veins night and day and dances in rhythmic measure. It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth into numberless blades of grass and breaks into tumultuous waves of flowers.” He calls this “the life throb of ages, dancing in my blood this moment.” To be in touch with this life throb of ages dancing in our blood this moment, is to have zest for life. It is to face the unknown with carefreeness and freedom.
The unknown is the field of all possibilities in every moment of the present. And this is freedom, beyond the known of past conditioning, beyond the prison of space, time, and causation.
As Don Juan once said to Carlos Castaneda, “It does not matter what our specific fate is, as long as we face it with ultimate abandon.” This is carefreeness. This is joy. This is freedom. This is zest for life.
And thus endeth King's lesson for today. I never really thought he would go all the up to "z," but he he really did.
For those of you who would like to visit the previous words, here's a link to the whole thing A to Z.
I wonder what's comin' next. 
Gonna put a random letter I’m not looking r

I wonder what's comin' next.

Simply look at kings friends list and make ur own decision about his intent.(59 - 50+ with sexy female pics, but a couple of males from this thread) He’s seen constantly trying to make friends with any pretty skirt in other threads - despite objections of his persistence and being asked politely to stop.
The point is he’s off topic. The OP disappeared. He has found a thread to spread his agenda with apparently no objection from any of you. Discussion of randomness has been hijacked. Outta here for good with this continued nonsense
8 posts in a row - all in bold face text taking up the entire page requiring endless scrolling. Someone new tuning in and participating on the posted topic? Never happen. You few fools enjoy.
pleez MM. no offense. but i kinda like a liberated thread. relevant means wut ? esp w/ sucha abstract Off Topic like TR. sure. we tide in and out. but is that so wrongful ? i mean is it worth catalyzing a stroke over ?
letchur heart beat in peace. it'll thank u in the morning...n'dont forget ur bowl a oatmeal 
.
opti, u know me. those who exp stuff that few other do (dream lucidity, NDE, synesthesia, perfect pitch, clarivoyance, etc.) doesnt make them any less valid. so totally w/ you. b/s the SM is just an extreme form of skepticism. dismiss in places.
