War Awakening (Part 2)

[Optimized Life]

War was my best unscripted piece ever , I will never ever come close to that level of writing again in my life, it was my peak 

But I had a second war reawakening, involving Jocko willik & his romadi period. 

So, Jocko Willink 

This "Anti-stress" pussy culture is ruining men 

Jocko willink barely slept for 6 months straight during his ramadi period, yet it was the most meaningful and alive period of his life, his entire life feels so tame in comparison, being at his true edge pushed him to learn his true character and find meaning in danger. Danger, purpose, grind, brotherhood, war, death, blood, sleepless nights, eating 6000 calories a day, endless moving and working out, no rest, and under those conditions, he lead and directed and stayed sharp, made decisions, and moved with energy and speed. 

I'm not suggesting you should not sleep for 6 months or intentionally risk death lol not the point 

But like, fucking cmon man 

Men can't stay under 20% body fat and leave their house to the gym thats a 10 minute walk away to go do some bicep curls in an air conditioned room for 30 minutes a day, men can't say hi to a 130 pound women, men are aimless useless and insecure, and to top it all off, rather than just being merely authentically depressed and upset about it (which could justify sympathy or empathy), when seeing or sensing any even moderate amount of confidence, discipline, ambition, courage from another man, resort to passive aggression, condescension, sly marks, peer pressure, mockery, judgement ect.. and other ego games to bring that man down (Starts to feel draining the amount of times my frame gets tested from lame men, its so constant and sometimes sneaky that I honestly still lose the frame sometimes because I don't catch it in the moment).

We live in a world of lame, boriing, fake, envious, bitter men with no bools and courage who don't merely just sit around minding their own business (not so bad), but are out there ready to bring the real men down, because these lame men aren't necessarily benign and safe .. nononononoonno. Ironically i think often the most lazy, insecure, bitter and useless men are the best at gaslighting you, at passive agression, condescencion and all these sneaky games. They're like energy parasite bots that god (or the devil?) sprinkled throughout the earth to make life more challenging

Fuck ive gone on a tangent 

Theres more to say about Jockos Ramadi 

"NO STRESS CULTURE" EVADE STRESS "OOH NO ADRENALINE, DOPAMINE OOOH NOOOO"

But There's nuance to "stress" 

Jocko willinks ramadi "stress" is literally the most meaningful and alive period of his life, he'd be empty without it

Meaningful stress is what men actually NEED MORE OF 

PEOPLE DONT DO ANYTHING, THEY DONT HAVE ENOUGH STRESS

Adventure danger challenge struggle victory war it's all "stress" 

Quote

Meaningful stress is what men actually NEED MORE OF

Let me correct this tbh, I guess its what I, ME NEEDS MORE OF LOL 

I probably shouldn't talk about "men" becasue jhonestly its a bit cringe, 99% of them are already off the cliff and i dont care anymore, fuck them anyway flex on all those energy parasite bots BIG TIME AND SO WILL MY SONS

Requires NUANCE & some depth of character to get what I'm saying. 

STRESS is just shitty for 95% of people 

The miserable latino just working his shitty service job in this shitty economy and hes stressed and miserable .. 40 years later still stressed and miserable and sleep deprived and underpaid and going through the motions. 

That is nothing to be proud of. 

But Jocko willicks Romadi STRESS is different, very different. 

That was him in his rawest edge, his finer hour 

When you're truly in your edge, and doing something worthwhile, you're willing to even lose sleep for it, because it's worth it. 

Obviously if you can sleep 7+ hours instead of 3-5 then you do it, but achieving big things comes with pain and struggle and stress, because its hard and the odds are against you, but you know you're wired for more and can't be happy with less like the rest, so you embrace the suffering, you get up and approach anyway, you make the calls anyway.
