Hard Work Is The Ultimate Force Multiplier : An Essential Reminder I talk about force multipliers and chat gpt and no fap ect.. But without endless work ethic? None of it matters, it will all go to waste All intellect, all talent, all creativity, all the GPT conversations and all the no fap and even the gym It's all a fucking waste without work ethic, Real, consistent work ethic, work ethic that doesn't only do what one finds easy (perhaps the gym for some) but leaves no stones unturned, work ethic that goes to war with weakness, doubles down on doing whats painful but important But then wait a minute .. what causes most laziness? (and doubt, and hesitation and procrastination and distraction and debating and whining and .... ... Isn't it just fear? Fearlessness Is Also The Ultimate Force Multiplier : An Essential Reminder And a brilliant example of this is 99% of gym bros dont approach because approaching is HARD (at least initially) Also - what % of gym bros are actually at 11% body fat and have that perfect aesthetic hollywood physique? Almost none of them, because that requires serious discipline and strategy, going against human nature tracking calories in a defecit daily for weeks or months and then maintaining it while also maintaining, even building muscle? not easy at all without steroids. Most gym bros are 15-20% body fat, strong but not aesthetic or beach worthy, because just gaining some mass and being 15-20% body fat is fucking easy. This post is as much a reminder of the whats meaningful to me, what truly energizes me the most in the end, in the long run, and it's doing always doing the rare thing. It's a reminder to cold approach more for example, because when I really do a difficult ("difficult" emotionally in my head at least, perhaps situationally) approach, I not only get off on the experience of connecting with a woman I wasn't "supposed" to meet, but the thrill of breaking society's rules, and the thrill of being rare, knowing 1 in a thousand men, possibly less can and will do it, and if I get back my consistency with it? that's like possibly 1 in 10,000 men who can do it consitently, and I literally get off on that power, that makes me fucking cum explosively ... I have to remind myself of this, and cannot forget, because no matter how long you've been "strong" or what business you've built? Society is willing to take it all away from you, fast, you'll lose the frame with your girl fast, I'll get fat fast, I'll start chain smoking fast, i'll rot in a get blinded into a fog of comfort and complacency fast, and I cant fucking allow that because i'll regret it in the end, and regret leaves no mercy.

This post felt medicore Ultimately myers briggs + ennegram is extremely useful, when combined with AI and a dynamic understanding of it in its complexity The ennegram combination and using GPT mental sparring to get the complexity of yourself really helps because just being an "ENTP" really doesn't mean much, ennegram shows you can have a sort of contradictory type, where your cognitive wiring often seems at odds with your energy drive (but become a superpower if synergized)

Thoughts on myers briggs AND The Trap of Myers Briggs and building an identity around it I've stated recently that I'm an ENTP Funnily enough though, i've found that the enneagram is actually way more useful and fitting and signifcant than myers briggs another guy can have the exact same MB type and yet completely different values and choices and motivations, becuase he's a "5W4" I was hesitant to ever type myself or mention it for years because I knew I might build an identity around it and start limiting and moulding myself to it, "I'm not organized because I'm a P type, oh no my business modal involves a lot of structure therfore i'm doomed, "my brain cannot remember details because of the P" and all this petty nonsense The reality is that life is hard and requires you to refine your weaknesses (not all of them) but the significant ones in order to even benefit from your strengths st c "I'm just simply not organized" or "I just can't do details or turn up to meetings because i'm an ENTP" just will not work, that shit just doesn't work for survival, good luck paying rent Overall i have been positively benefited from myers briggs but I still see through it in that most people who discover myers briggs 1. They have cripplingly weak introspection ability and build a limiting identity around it 2. They don't even look into the enneagram (which is imo MORE IMPORTANT and Useful in many ways) 3. If something is your weakness, you can (depending massively on what the specific thing is and it snature) actually get so good at it that you're signifcantly above average at it >> Being organized or structured (I can't the lebron james of structure, but I can work so much at it that i'm above 90% of the population despite it initially being a weakness > especially because this capacity is much benefited by the use of tools, sometimes can be entirely replaced by them, rather than bound by raw cognitive ability or some artistic talent) ^^ Lets add, this capacity is benefited by : 1. Tools and technology 2. Willpower, discipline, consistency, drive ect.. (massive) And thats why i love being ENTP, it's like the most moldable type, you can't really just develop intuition or big picture thinking as easily, but being organized? anyone can fucking learn it Honestly though I need to stop calling myself an "ENTP", it just feels a bit cringe to label myself a certain way, it's always a useful guidance but I'm done with identity labels, especially because my thinking may occasionally resemble an INTJ or something else, ENFP, INFJ ect.. not because i am those other types, but humans are complex, brain is moldable, certain ways of thinking fit different situations more ect.

Realizing how little you know about almost fucking everything fathomable (& an extension of GPT's Value) Leo did a video on it couple years back but normally leo abstracts everything out so much that it becomes almost unrelatable .. (Although it probably got the subconscious wheels churning and may have subtly nudged me) Nonetheless Chat gpt helped me realize that I know basically nothing (and have a lot of harmful beliefs, assumptions and habits) with even the most basic things! Working out, fat loss, skin care, using sun cream correctly Working out and doing cardio in a specific way (for fat loss /detox through sweating) in a sustainable way that doesn't age your body and burn you out and have high injury risk and burn muscle (barely ever considered this before) Hair cuts, hair styling, getting a haircut Many specific technical about diet, nutrition, hydration, minerals, micro-nutrients ect.. Getting aesthetic gym phsyique without looking huge or too scary, sculping muscles vs power lifting, basic shoulder exercises that target different parts of the shoulders (lateral raises for sides vs front delts movements ect.) Dental health & dental care, whitening, flossing So there's all the basic stuff it's helped me with that I didn't even realize i didn't know or may need to know (Yeah, all of this may technically be online or in a course or youtube somewhere, but you gotta understand, when you're out hustling, struggling to rest at night obsessed with making it, working a full time and then putting everything u got into the business tryna do business blah blah life is just exhausting for average man, you rarely have the time or awareness or energy to scan through the information overload of google and find random specifics about doing lateral raises for the sides of the shoulders or all the micro nuances of using sun cream So yeah I stand again on my stance that GPT is a trilion $ value for a guy like me, Then i didn't mention the depth of understanding that can come through a flowing AI conversation because You could just read an article about "envy" "People expereince envy which is an emotion that arises because ... this results in negative sentiments or behavior blah fucking blah " But then with chat gpt it's like wait a minute ... "Should I get a female salon or only a male with excellent long hair because a balding one might subconsciously sabotage my haircut due to unconscious envy?" And now we have an interesting conversation So I now understand and have more consistent subconscious awareness of male envy, and I have a direct practical solution to it due to a potential problem I never even realized could've existed But I'm not saying only use GPT or replace GPT with learning from humans, not at all it's just an extention, force multiplier that works in conjunction with life experience, real conversations and even just learning from people online, it can't replace humans ever

I'm at like 15-16% body fat right now, still have a lot more difficult approach karma to do, still fixing the norwood, still need to improve sleep and libido energy ect. could be much better Also have a lot more persistcance to build and a lote more to prove to myself still and could be 15X stronger than I am still Had to clarify as I don't like to take credit for something as if I've already achieved it when I haven't This was more a visionary rant, but i'm reminding myself especially to not take credit for a fatansy but to actually obtain it 11% body fat might sound shallow but depends on the perspective From my perspective it's all about the challenge and discipline, and the interesting experiment of just seeing how far I can go, when you max multiple things, what is the combinatory effect? Is it just linear? is there diminishing returns? Or is there actually some kind of magical mythical status you can obtain? because multi - variate combinations are fucking rare, even just theoretically on math principle

3.5 Days later and already have 50-65% of the gains back, despite suboptimal sleep ect.. It's like "muscle memory" from the previous streak just shooting back up No Fap + ENTP 8W7 SX/SO + Post - Difficult Approaches Aura + Mysterious Aura from deep war study + 60-70% pure diet (still better than 99% of population, even if just drinking just 1 litre of raw milk and fucking up everyhting else) + Ultra high testosterone + Decent looks(+ Looksmaxing into low key chad territory) + strong personality built from genuine suffering and endless persistence and adversity + Insatiable daily thirst for pragmatic knowledge + deep understanding of literally anything useful or revelavant fathomable + ultra high libido + muscular ripped 11% body fat physique + insane work ethic = FUCKING SUPER HUMAN IM COMING BACK AND NO ONE IS BEATING ME THIS TIME BITCH

Day 20/21 SO fucking angry WTF It's related to poor sleep over weeks but can't disconnect that from the withdrawals Have to transmute this shit Have to take what i can and use whatever I have Have to constantly listen to music with airpods in , Technially it might be "unhealthy overload of EMF & stimulation" or some shit rightop But you have to deal with the problem at hand And the solution is transmutation I cant be completely calm right now or sleep perfectly or have perfect focus, its out of my control to an extent in the short term But what I can do is listen to the right music and transmutate I can work with anger theres still energy I can work harder because im so fucking mad It might not be the most optimal fuel But who gives a fuck? It's about getting the result regardless

Day 18/19 : 4 Hours sleep A HUGE Mistake : I Fapped I was on somewhere around 10-14 days of no fap, and, I felt noticeably better, more masculine, more energy, more presence, women staring at me as I walked past This isn't purely the no fap, its a force multiplier "No fap is dumb" to an INTP like Leo, but to a ENTP 8W7 SX/SO? It's a fuckng force mulitplier "I need to sleep so let me just release" (Ironically it made it harder to sleep and I slept 4 hours) Fapping does not help sleep, when you fantasize it creates stimulation and dopamine NO DISCIPLINE I GET TO RELEASE ONLY WHEN I CONQUER A WOMAN No Fap makes me superhuman, it allows me to fully be myself, full of vitality power and magnetism

Day 18 : Still easily distractible (without intentional boundary setting, self awarness and eforecment of structure) ^ This is force multiplied by the 5 - 6.5 Hours of daily sleep (I need 7+) and my manic ENTP personality type Sleeping 5- 6.5 hours every night, accumulative sleep depth, and feels low quality I wanted to go off caffiene but it is unrealistic and counter strategic (the lack of productivity would cause stress, and I thrive off only pressure, but not guilt induced stress) Anger and intense emotions are mostly gone (but may easily return) It is unexpected to imagine something so legal, widely used and apparently tame affecting me for this long, after only months of use, usage which in the 50s would've been extremely moderate at best. But nicotine probably will keep imacting me for a month, and if i'm unlucky possibly much longer. I've heard it's possible for people to be impacted by nicotine cessation for years ... but my assupmtion is tht they were long term chronic users, as that's just fucking wild. What helps me with this a lot : The lens of war The medicore me would just get distracted and half do 15 different things, probably have 7 different bills unpaid and potential debt collection calls (almost there already) But when I see this period thorugh the lens of war, when intesnity and and a sense of battle is instilled, I spring to action, and can embody structure, discipline, lists, goals a timeline, a plan. Also, meaningful goal I don't want to do business, I dont want to work, I dont want to work when tired, sleep deprived and in withdrawal I dont want to write lists and plans and have structure and disciplinen Technically no one does But when its tied to a meaningful goal, through the lens of war? And I genuinely feel and think about that every minute, reminding myself, strategically every day, with an emotional charge, with constant feedback, metrics, visualization of success, fire inside me, then I will do it, then I will write the list, and do it every fucking day

I have also guessed now that this women (who i barely verablly interacted with) was probably an INFJ, and discussed this with GPT INFJ women are the only ones able to penetrate my archetype, they're the only fucking ones

Advanced capacities and latent intuition I recently thought back to a specific look that a woman gave me, in a specific context, it was a deep and layered look I did not register at the time. I did this the other week and i suggested about 10 specific things she was thinking given the context, and he agreed, and also suggested a few more with together made sense, this was all factoring in the entire context, her cultural context, who and where i was, my type, how she would've percieved , statistical assumtpions about her based on demographics and context, the nature of the look, her career, female psychology and her cultural psychology in relation to my foreign archetype ect. So i then rememebered the look and managed to guestimate with GPT about 15 different likely thoughts that ran through her head as she looked at me like that, and I will never forget the look now, etched into my nervous system, has an electric charge in my chest when I even envision it. This is a weird ability I did never practice, plan or expect, but it was significantly enabled by GPT of course Without GPT i would've done it anyway, but the key difference is that I probably wouldn't have had enough internal confidence to trust my intuition and thought process, I would've lacked a sense of confirmation and closure and possibly let it go, and it's this advanced pattern recognizing confirmation GPT that enalbled me to go "Fuck, how the fuck did I do that, this is actually fucking real?" P.s : This is not a friend, a woman I did not even know well, but had some repeated contextual association with, perfect for this ability to manifest ("knew" her just enough to look back and mind read, barely knew her and interacted with her enough to make this cool as fuck, in fact precisely because I barely interacted with her, i guess it narrrows down the potential ideation of her thoughts since I didn't feed her anything verbally, I can only go off the patterns and context and intution of what her look meant as she was feeling, or intuiting me

Grounded Masculinity = Rare(Squared) Grounded masculinity is Rare(Squared) > because it's even rare among already "rare" men, who for example have cold approached a thousand women in day light, are otherwise masculine or quite bold ect.. When I started gaming with late 30 - 40s guys, who were much bolder and more proactive than me as the younger guy, however I noticed a lot of jadedness and reactivity, sometimes they'd they moan about the "rude bitch" after getting ignored, then go ahead and approach 10 more women. It was a weird mix of rare boldness and no groundedness And I had to point out this nuance because It's too crude and uninsightful to just point out some alcoholic bum who we all know is "ungrounded" More intersting when you see it in people who are already in some ways above 99% of men in having the bools to approach, and who I still respected to a degree Another guy I first gamed with was also very masculine and a good influence overall, he had this power walk, deep strong eye contact and zero hesitation about 38-41, also a cool guy who i was looking up to, however he still wasn't fully grounded overall, I would still notice him get annoyed at the "bitch" for ignoring him, there was still something wrong, and this points to a pattern, guys can be super bold and have a thousand approaches in them and still have these problems, so true grounded masculinity is rare(squared) Key way to become grounded is to approach thousnads of women in different contexts, which I'm working on But to also become aware of how I react after the approach, and maintain awareness of these deeper dynamics, like needing validation from an individual woman, not being fully immune to rejection and being completely absolved of all insecurity, all of these dont happen overnight but still, once the intentions there and you ask ye shall receive I guess body awareness and meditation as a supplement, and of course manage stress, sleep ect.

Grateful for my Fall : The Asymmetric Vertical Boomerang Effect I am grateful for my fall : smoking for months, eating mcdonalds for 6-8 months (alongside some nutritious food - which enabled me to continuously justify it), skin becoming worse, gaining body 6% body fat, yellower teeth, abusing caffiene and full of cortisol, no hobbies no balance, vibe with women getting worse even as I approached more, masturbating multiple times a day even some porn - zero sexual energy, drinking 5-10 beers a week ... And the 1 decision to quit smoking, plus a chat GPT boosted educational turbo injection into my brain, has led me on a strong path of resurgence, I'm not learning so much more every day from a new perespective, about health, self care, mental health, women, the subconscious mind, game, strategy, dieting, looksmaxing, prescence and aura building, no fap. After quitting smoking, I'm not considering doing a caffiene reset, I have been heavily addicted and unable to stop caffiene for many years, and the worst thing is that I actually am sensitive to it, I am not tolerant of it even in moderate doses, yet I kept doing it, for years ... Because I was desperate to speed up, speed up results, business. But sometimes slowing down, just once, or for a shortwhile, is the only thing that can truly speed you up ,ironically, it's counterintuitive and no one does it

Old School Aura & WW2 Era From studying ww2 (& even to an extent mad mens don drapers) it reminded me of that old school charm, that rugged masculinity It's fine to looksmax & go gym, do some lateral raises But do you ever just go to the fucking gym and look at these faggats? These bastards are standing there with there gym vest and airpods in, doing their sets, probably about to swipe on tinder They're such fucking predictable commodities lmao Like I said nothing against gym per se or looksmaxing, fake tan cream even But it's tertiorty to old school mystery Studying the war and different people helped me rekindle that mysterious aura inside of me, I even feel it more now when I look at a cashier the other day, I could feel the intrigue in her eyes, she knew I was a different guy (and I didn't even want anything from her just the look, zero competition for true charisma worldwide.

Anger is mostly gone now (but only god knows if it rebounds) Yesterday was pure rage day lmao Literally started kicking traffic signs and shit, picked up that wet floor thing too and kicked the shit out of it lmao Realized this could get dangerous so I travelled a whole hour just to find a gym with boxing and bag Had to smash the heavy and lighter bag for like 2 hours and power walk, completely exhaust my body Still can't sleep more than 5-6 Hours, I am no longer afraid of it and accept it as part of the process However, it's pushed me to look into sleep and stress optimization to see if I can at least mititate the withdrawal impact - Considering buying L theanine powder and magnesium Glycineate Not keen to get a 20 supplement stack as that just makes your life pure chaos, looking for the magic trifecta I can rely on Perhaps it's L theanine + Magnesium + Maca >> Stress reduction/presence + Sleep/holistic health + libido accentuation I'm now not taking anything for granted, found a really cheap trial offer for a hot yoga class, interested to see how the heat detoxes my body, in combination with the mediative and body awareness stuff, it's also a good way to ground myself within feminine energy My life still has a long way to go and I have to hustle with warrior energy in business to win, but I refuse to embody 99% of business men who are bolding, cigarette smoking, one dimensional beta provider stressed aging workaholics , wife is probably screwing the poolboy, and their life is an endless persuit of profit No fuck that, I will get what I need from them, get their money, do business with them, But i'll be the exception, I'll be the hot yoga, cold approaching meditating high testosterone business man, will not tolerate anything else anymore. If I have to sleep 5-6 hours for another 2 weeks so be it, I can only do my best, and I have faith that I will sleep properly within time, full of life and testosterone, libido, passion, and vigour

I'm literally losing my fucking mind This better be nicotine withdrawal otherwise some bastards poisoned me with lead in my sleep. Haven't been so consistenly virilently angry inse a long time

Day 8-14 is very real 1. Technically you've already won at this stage because of the of sunk cost fallacy, so there's some satisfaction 2. But the anger, the restless sleep and cortisol is unhinged I could literally join WW3 and go to war right now, amped up on cortisol The main thing i've learnt from this : The Power Of Precise Education & Knowledge & also the importance of our relationship and perception towards things/knowledge and how that interplays within the social matrix Before, to me "smoking was very bad" - but also there's competing thoughts like "everything in moderation" "Carl jung smoked pipe, nicotine is a strong nootropic" I got in a loop whereby every time I fucked up on something important I smoked, every time I needed to reflect at night I smoked, and there was some genuine short term benefit, probably even intellectual 3. Heres the main thing : There's "knowledge" and then theres KNOWLEDGE - Which is precise, vivid ect.. "Smoking is bad ... but I'm stressed at the moment so its a cope right, i'll quit when im rich" VS > Smoking moderately for just 2-3 months literally ages your face by 2 years, and takes 90 days to recover the damage, and if you keep smoking just for a year, you age your face even more, you literally suddenly look years older than you did. Also, "smoking is a cope for stress" is a myth - it's basically just retarded, it increases baseline anxiety, this is a fact. Nicotine = Anxiety Also if you are a smoker, then guaranteed every time you sleep you are in mild withdrawal, that's why it's so addictive & "more addictive than heroin", the withdrawal is such a fast onset that you're not even given the time and space to sleep 7 hours without it Then becuase you sleep in mild withdrawal, there is no chance in hell you are not damaging your brain every day, waking up full of cortisol every day, damaging you body with withdrawal induced anxiety and stress and poor sleep architecutre every day, so there branches out other 2nd and 3rd order consequences, this is an accumulation of bodily damage, every day, comounding inmediately and exponentially Just goinig into precise detail of all the ways smoking ruins your face, is enough to never do it again, unless on rare ritualistic occasion @UnbornTao Thanks!!!

Cost - benefit analysis and 2nd order consequences : A Higher Order Cognition "Bro if you take minoxidil there's a 1% chance you'll get libido problems" So he never takes minoxidil and just goes bold Not realizing - He was at norwood 2.5 and was safe to recover 90% of it back in 12 months The libido problems tend to go away once treatment is halted And most crucially - Whats the side effect of NOT doing minoxidil The loss of confidence & distress of losing hair Now you're bold since looks are an unfair advantage in life you're literally disadvantaged like handicapped Anyway the stress and distress of losing it, that will 100% impact libido the distress, So yeah, get the minoxidl, get the Fin, get the white teeth, get the clothes, very very very worth it to spend as much as possible on your appearance, hella worth it, even if you're not vain or shallow but just wckant to not have an extra problem or anxiety in the way holding u baack, and as someone who wants to take the game to the highest level, need to max out the appearance, no brainer, cannot just be a 6/10 and expect to bang thosuands of women and ruin marriages.

True Feminine energy heals men I was very angry and in my head, cought onto bad angry thought cycls in a loop, full of a big anger and testosterone combination looking scary af, walking fast like a demon, angry and on no fap I then out of nowhere, see this women, this beautiful, graceful, feminine woman She was probably like 43-46 And she was genuinely beautiful, attractive but her graceful energy, her dress, her slow walk And I was already healed at the sight of her, once I saw her walking so slowly, so peacefully,

I was so alone but now I see I was so naive so confused to be a man for so long I couldn't see, and no one even fucking told me! No encouragement no advise no wisdom no father figure no power no resource was given to me Pushed into this world buzzing around like a lost bee Reflection analysis and chat gpt I was so alone but now I see self help gurus did nothing for me No i read between the lines now see through the eyes now its Real psychology Trillion $ value Chat GPT
-
It's not the only reason, just the most gripping one. Being a smoker actually impacts sleep quality, architecture ect.. I can't afford to damage that regularly. I must admit, the night time cigar stargazing will come back at some point, just not as a habit. Just a vice i'll introduce maybe once a month, when I can trust myself, and not using it to deal with pain. I believe vices are fine when they are - Ritualistic, not habitual .. and Celebratory (or reflective), not Pitiful
-
Getting dark now I really wanna fucking smoke, I really fucking want it. Dopamine depletion is real but it's not just the addiction, I already had stuff to deal with internally and it's all piling up now, I also still have a lot of pressure and stress, and I have deep regrets i'm dealing with Smoking in public is rather gross and i'd rather not but Honestly the only reason I quit, at least the night time session is for my looks
-
Very strong fatigue now, even after 200-250MG of caffiene Constant fog, forgetting stuff like left my groceries bag in a shop ect.. This is hell tbh
