That's because there is one and the same story underneath every story (The Monomyth/Hero's Journey). You interpret your life through story (whether you know it or not) - forgetting this story is the definition of insanity lol.

You are developing a skill, not a result. You can get progressively better (some lines of development resemble a step-function more than a linear one; meaning, you have breakthroughs and plateaus -- but it's both simultaneously, as is the case in evolution itself) at selling, but you can't progressively sell more. A musician might not compose a song in months, but he can still be involved in a creative process that will level up his skills - until he has a new breakthrough and creates his best work yet (and wouldn't it be silly, if the musician was beating himself up the following day for not dishing out an even greater work of art?) He can also practice a song on the piano and get better everyday. What he can't do is compose 2 songs today, 3 tomorrow and 5 the day after that.

Now is the slave a free man, now all the stiff, hostile barriers break apart, those things which necessity and arbitrary power or “saucy fashion” have established between men. Now, with the gospel of world harmony, every man feels himself not only united with his neighbour, reconciled and fused together, but also as if the veil of Maja has been ripped apart, with only scraps fluttering around before the mysterious original unity. Singing and dancing, man expresses himself as a member of a higher unity. He has forgotten how to walk and talk and is on the verge of flying up into the air as he dances. The enchantment speaks out in his gestures. Just as the animals speak and the earth gives milk and honey, so now something supernatural echoes out of him. He feels himself a god. He now moves in a lofty ecstasy, as he saw the gods move in his dream. The man is no longer an artist. He has become a work of art. The artistic power of all of nature, the rhapsodic satisfaction of the primordial unity, reveals itself here in the intoxicated performance. The finest clay, the most expensive marble—man—is here worked and chiseled, and the cry of the Eleusianian mysteries rings out to the chisel blows of the Dionysian world artist: "Do you fall down, you millions? World, do you have a sense of your creator?”

Why do you read? It should be because you have some kind of problem or question and youre looking for answers. You will not forget something that youre directly seeking out. When reading becomes just another habit and youre working through a big list of books, is when it becomes a liability.

As far as Pop songs go, this one has it all: Super catchy Sexy Progressive as fuck Cutting-edge production Caroline Polachek is such a treat.

A good start would be to stop fighting against your own biology in the name of "mental clarity."

I don't know what you're running away from. Being a man, maybe?

Oh please. Your shit posts here are the definition of cheap dopamine.

And what do you do when you have a girl? Stop creating? This is a shitty strategy and I doubt that it is much more than placebo anyways. Everyone reading this sorry ass bullshit can clearly see that you're just coping - maybe take the hint?

You think I'm making this up? It should be obvious that repressing your sexuality can not lead to anything positive. Something is off in your epistemology, if you actually believe being so full of cum that you're about to burst is giving you "mental clarity."

You're quite the character yourself. Goggins said that he found peace years ago; but this is his life's work, so what do you expect him to do?

I did it for 3 months a few years ago - got me all jacked up from being too horny, and I made some dumb decisions because of it. Also, you're completely messing up your relationship to sex. A friend of mine once did this for 6 months. His balls were so swollen and knotted, by the time he got to the doctor and had his balls untangled, they told him a few more days and they would have had to amputate them. Just be a man and accept that you have a dick, for fuck's sake.

??? As far as I can tell, freemasonry is the western equivalent of Tantra Yoga - left-hand spirituality with all sorts of wacky occultist rituals.

Come on man. Goggins is a beautiful human being with a good heart - he's dedicated his life to help others find greatness in themselves. What is there to judge?

There is a lot of high art in Naziism. That does not mean I support their philosophy as a whole. I couldn't care less how this reflects on me. People love to talk a big game about open-mindedness, but as soon as shit gets ugly they act like the sheep they are deep down.

Im not saying Andrew Tate is a good man or a profound thinker, but the image he has created is pure art - its not my problem that you people are too narrow minded and stuck up to see this.

No it doesn't lol Stop projecting your bullshit on him. @MichaelJohn I'll leave a longer answer later - I've had a lot of the same issues.

Embodying: truth: that which is in accordance with fact or reality goodness: that which is morally right, virtuous or commendable beauty: that which gives pleasure to the senses or the mind It's absolutely necessary to be highly developed in all of them, otherwise you're either a nerd, a sucker or a psycho; or a combination of those. Daniel Schmachtenberger and Ken Wilber come to mind; they are probably the humans that have come closest to this ideal - and both explicitly embody an integral philosophy. This is more a meta-point about a great human being in general, but it's still very relevant to this inquiry.

If you can't see the difference between Tate and these RSD clowns, I don't know what to tell you. This is like saying "why listen to Leo, when I can listen to Adeptus Psychonautica." And PBD is just some libertarian workaholic immigrant - nothing special. Andrew Tate embodies this "alpha" archetype to such an incredible degree - it should be a sight to behold, no matter where you stand on this whole thing. We're talking aesthetics after all - if you can't appreciate art and reduce everything down to "it's just a pop song, what's so special about it?" that just tells me you don't value beauty and art very highly.

I just scored an extremely well paying sales job. I pulled this off though sheer willpower. At the beginning of this year I decided enough is enough - I won't waste my youth rotting away in university. I'm 23 and I'm in my prime as far as energy, testosterone, mental sharpness go; yet here I am, sitting in a room with hundreds of NPCs, listening to old resentful bookmen and their pet theories - not getting anywhere, in other words. Following in the footsteps of the great Andrew Tate, I locked myself in my room and told myself I'm not leaving before I find a way to make money and assert myself on the world. The plan I came up with was: Writing out my life story Using ChatGPT to make it as sharp and persuasive as possible Using that text to apply for sales jobs Farming job interviews Doing them until I'm really good at them Scoring a nice well paying job I did all that in exactly a months time. No prior experiences. Only will to power. What more can you ask for as a young guy? You learn how to speak You become extremely confident You learn how humans really work You make lots of money It straightens you out, I'll tell you that much. You don't learn anything profound in university anyways and as far as pragmatics and survival goes, what better way than going into sales & marketing. Anyways, make of it what you will, I'm just telling you that will to power as described by Nietzsche is a very real phenomenon.

Sounds good. Are you not afraid of AI making manual programming obsolete? Im not trying to be a smartass, Im just curious.

Exactly.

Oof. What are you trying to build?

What are you doing now?
