    1. Oh yeah. Firsthand experience friend! I can’t relax/pig out/binge watch until I feel I’ve done the appropriate personal evolution stuff for that day. IDK…maybe it’s just me, haha!

      1. Hmm. So that’s the essence of personal refinement is it? Well in that case, colour me refined! 😀

      1. Do you think the world would be a better place if more people thought like this? Or would there simply be more people convinced that their method of personal development is right and must be enforced?

      2. I think it’s a layered answer that requires a little bit of more context…so if personal refinement were to include the concept that the more we refine ourselves, the more we see that we are all interconnected and need to lift each other up, then I think that that is naturally an ego-reductive activity that would cause people to be more tolerant of others and less inclined to force a specific world-view on them. However, if you take personal refinement as a rigid, quantifiable thing, discipline, hard work, pure skill development—without any of the philosophical/spiritual undertones—then yes, people would naturally indulge their egos and try to force their own methods of personal development on others. I think, though, that true personal refinement will make us all more tolerant and willing to help each other out in the most open-minded way possible. 🙂
