Op here. I'm going to commit egocide and attempt to destroy my personality in order for a better self to take its place. I will have better thoughts and actions because I will be come a better person. If I am successful, I will have a better life.

I have an irl friend who said he did this and it's genuinely weird to have him switch from his old autistic and shy personality to being completely open, welcoming, complimenting etc. His "tulpa" buttered up a girl I liked and led her to being my gf. I hope he won't go full schizo.

Also interested in parts of this. How do you end up as the person you are and why? How much can you change?
I don't know if a lot of my behaviors are just old instincts taking control. How much do events from your childhood (that you remember or not) really shape you as a person? I'm almost 30 but still sometimes feel like a timid little boy who has to explain himself to the "scary adults".

You cannot change your personality entirely, since it is rooted in your ontology; rather, one of your personas, or your ultimate persona, containing some of your nascent characteristics, may be realized in your personality; personification transcurs through transvertive reconciliation of one's multiple aspects, as one develops one's singular personality via convertive recreation.

One who integrally explores diversity is the most equipped to implore university; one who rootlessly —id est: Godlessly— does so, perpetually changing, is estranged from oneself.

The integral transvertibility of an object (persona) is contingent to the universal coherence of its subject (person/personality) —id est: prerequisite for the congruence of what is alterable in appearence (of person/personality) is the integral essence of what is transvertible in form (of persona).

Are Tulpas actually that hard to make? I tried it once, took me like 30 seconds. I imagined this old fat guy in a ugly suite was in my room, pacing, looking at his watch, waiting for me to ask him something. He said some strangely poetic things to me then got bored and 'left'.
Like, did I make a Tulpa or was I just daydreaming? Or is Tulpa just a fancy word for daydreaming?
