Former Community – We Moved
🆕 Coached community here, for posts & feedback public community here.
Short Thank You's and Feedback
Matthew, I wanted to take the time to say thank you for all your thank you's :).
When I first joined the forum, I made a lot of mistakes. And now, having come a long way, I enjoy making posts that I hope people here will get value from.
So, when you say "thank you", it makes me feel more valued and appreciated in the community. And, most importantly, it helps me feel like my posts are bringing some benefit to those who read them however small that benefit is.
I've gotten some serious benefit from your posts as well, and I hope you know that. Especially your post where you helped define the difference between a covert power move and covert aggression, that was very enlightening for me.
Hope you're keeping well mate, looking forward to continuing to grow with you.
Hey Ali, really happy to read this :).
Thank you for sharing your thoughts so openly.
I too made lots of mistakes on the forum and in real life.
I always enjoyed how much I have learnt from you, Lucio and others on this forum.
I think you have made so many valuable reviews of courses and books!
I am very interested in sales so thanks for sharing those relevant courses.
Wow, that post on covert power move and covert aggression went back sometime ago.
I'm very happy that you found it thought-provoking.
Maybe let's open up some of the old threads and discuss more!
All good! Hope you are doing well too, and look forward to continue learning & contributing to the forum.

Thank you for the deep exchange on conspiracies and occult power groups.
It wasn't just a good mental exercise, but it also helped me clear and improve my own position on it. And I think exchanges like that help sharpen logic and critical thinking.
Read Lucio's article on enlightened individualism.
I can certainly apply the concepts in my own life :).
I resonate with the concepts of being ruthless towards one's individual pursuits and self-development.
Bang!
Thank you, Matthew, that was the first draft, didn't think anyone would stumble upon it without any heads up.
Going to ask for a formal feedback soon, I consider it one of the most important self-development articles or review on the website -but might be wrong on what's most helpful to others-.
Couldn't help but notice seeing a few newer names being more active in the forum these past few weeks.
From what I've read and heard, the main reason people read the forum's content but choose not to participate is because they feel that they don't have enough to contribute yet.
But, these newer names are exactly that, new. And, they've managed to overcome their own doubts and prioritize being a learner over being right, super value-adding, or perfect with their timing of when to jump into a discussion.
It makes me happy to see more people engaging with the other members of the forum—learning and building themselves up as well as each other.
To be frank, I believe we can be our biggest obstacle when it comes to telling ourselves we don't have anything to contribute anywhere in the forum. I strongly feel that if you've made it to this website and have been reading the content for at least a week, one can at the very least share their own opinion on a topic—even if only to say they agree with someone.
So, to those who got out of their own way, I want to say "thank you", I look forward to exchanging ideas with you sometime soon.
Indeed the forum has become more vibrant!
As Ali said, it is challenging to start interacting with a new social environment.
Also thanks to Lucio for taking the time to give insights on the many threads.
Looking forward to continue exchanging ideas on the forum.
Thank you Matthew for the exchange on the "best books on confidence" and "The Gifts of Imperfection".
Your inputs and ideas helped me better understand the approach of that genre of self-help.
And it also helped me understand why I was always somewhat uncomfortable with it -and with Brene Brown's work-.
