1. When you engage in entertainments and distractions, you surrender your ability to take action towards what you want.
Public spectacles: politics, sports, celebrities, symbols, pompous speeches and parades.
Those are substitutes for people who have given up on achieving what they want.
Losers choose distractions to forget & group entertainments to enjoy success vicariously.

Losers choose distractions to forget & group entertainments to enjoy success vicariously.

3. People who are easily swept into public spectacles and group distractions are suggestible and weak.

4. By definition, what attracts the greatest number of people must appeal to the lowest common denominator.

5. When you create mental devices to drive you forward, emphasize powerful imagery instead of semantics.
