I always get early 20’s dudes spazzing out at some grandiose mystical life path decision. They have it framed like it’s biggest decision ever

What u choose actually matters 0%. What is more important is the decision u make after u choose (to continue becsuse you like it or to cut it because you don’t).

View your life as experiments. Instead of framing a directionslity decision as some mammoth & complex thing, just create a “want to try this within the year” list & start attacking it while giving zero fucks. That will give u all answers while removing wasted energy creating & dealing with pointless/baseless pressure. Realize it is fake pressure. Not real. Nothing of substance supports it. Entirely fake & gay Everyone who’s “stuck” has actually already chosen in their soul. The DELAY comes from them resfusing to accept the decision/answer that they’ve actually chosen. And waiting for permission

Just do shit first & think/worry second. Act off ur intuitive “dis sounds like muh fun” & then get rational as u have groundspeed

I love niche businesses

Bought golf clubs yesterday & needed to send them to the US. Did some resesrch & found a company that literally just ships golf clubs all over the world in these exact situations

They came & picked them up & handled everything for $300

We need more of those types of businesses. Solve a niche problem that you want to see in the world, really well. Ver sinpel Is also always an insane realization when u realize the niche is just your own life

Original guy loved to travel and buy clubs and was annoyed with sending them. There was no solution. He created it.

Can replicate in whatever weird niche life problem u have as well. If u would pay, they would pay

Agree with lack of vision but completely disagree with timelines. Anything beyond a 3 month plan is a complete fucking guess for 99.9% if they were being honest. It just becomes unnecessary delusion

Also severely limits ur upside IMO. U can’t predict the J curve or know when it will hit for you - and a j curve hitting is when shit actually changes. U can be broke 4 yrs staight then retard ur way into 5 M’s in the final minutes of the 4th quarter. Life works very nonlinearly & rejects all fake timelines. U can really only focus on inputs + directionality + serendipity & do all that u fucking can & then be ready to hold the fuck on when the rocket ship finally & randomly starts taking off without much of your own doing. God determines when - u can only control urself

It’s also weird cuz ur biggest jumps are you but also not you. U just sort of exist near them long enough to catch one & then have the commitment to refuse to let go no matter what when the train leaves the station I think having extended flags in the sand is a good thing but I don’t place timelines on them, it’s moreso an end result that I want

I then focus on what i’m doing to get it, try to maintain honesty with myself, and have eyes open enough to allow momentum + serendipitiy to work in my favor until a couple big dominos start falling for me

Your body will expend effortless amounts of infinite energy defending what you believe to be true

But will fight you tremendously hard when you begin exerting energy to seek information that proves what you know isn’t true

Your body will expend effortless amounts of infinite energy when hot girl is coming over & ur room is a mess (to clean it)

But will fight you tremendously hard when you want to clean it after work on a random Tuesday

Calories are not all built the same. Ur brain controls the valve, and necessity is the purest catalyst to getting action to spontaneously blossom out of you

But consciously creating necessity is really only reserved for the psychos. Normies won’t come anywhere close to it, and most others will try to create necessity but won’t *actually* do it. They will hit threads in every direction around the real 1, but won’t actually drop the stone on the actual tripwire

And that is why many successful people are interesting versions of insane. Because they chose to play the puppet that dropped the stone on the tripwire of the forbidden thread, or somehow were born in a situation where it was already pressed upon

Going against ur lowest self is not easy. But those who got what they wanted didn’t choose ease. They chose to play the game, jump into the chaos & observe the show What is funny is these people are only “insane” in the normie worldview

To THEIR worldview, it is completely common sense.

“The only way i’ll get myself to do what I want is to drop the stone on the tripwire…so why tf wouldn’t I drop it?”. Completely obvious no-brainer

Completely opposite psyche from a normie. *Literally* 180 out. Unfathomable to most, obvious to high achievers

Ultimate lane(s) for you = ones where you view the “losses” in that game with genuine curiosity. U don’t view them as L’s, u view them as opportunities to learn more about whatever the fuck it is u wanna learn

If you’re a lover of life, there are unique threads of hyper-specific games that will magnify & pull this passion for living out of you. “Flops” cease to exist. “Losses” lose definition. It’s just you, the wide open lane, and allotted time/capital to experiment/play. Monstrous thrill in coloring in the barren unknown with a working mental model that allows u to consistently bend reality to how u want it. Pure bliss. Can’t wait to explore it, test it & learn more. Can’t wait to see how it actually works. Can’t wait to get good at it. Can’t wait to struggle through the errors towards the wisdom

If u enjoy something enough, every error is naturally viewed as a blessing, because on the opposite side of that error is the data that has just givdn you the chance to learn

Example:

Was @ driving range & got into convo with a random dude because he said he liked my bag. We were chatting & hitting. I then giga-hooked a drive right into the net on the left side, and at the exact same time, he goes “ah that sucks” as I say “FINALLY” with a grin. Then we both started laughing.

I then explained to him that my goal for that session was to start the process of fixing that exact giga hook. And i couldn’t fix it until I finally created it / felt it, and could start figuring out which variables lead to that specific result in my own swing. I was actually very excited to see that hook because i was trying to fish it out of myself for 3-4 shots - even though externally it was an “objectively terrible shot”. But my orientation wasn’t on perfection, it was on trying to bring what needs correction to the surface, which tends to be very externally ugly process

I used a golf example here but this applies to business as well. There will be models that make u wanna kill urself (literally), and models that make u so advantaged to succeed in purely because of how you view it & what u like to do - that it’s laughable. And because u like it, u’ll rep it out & master it with what can potentially be almost unfathomable levels of less “bad resistance”

Ur body already has the directionality map built in. It’s showing u where to go based on what feels right, assuming you’ve tuned it to optimize for playing your own game. “Knowing where to go” is an amalgamation of 100 micro feelings that are very nuanced. Combined together they are a macro feeling that you never FULLY master, but get closer & closer to “getting right”

If you keep genuinely trying to get it right, then by late 20’s you are universes AHEAD of your early 20’s self on deciding these things via your own pursuit, but ironically these games look exactly like what you already knew to be true a decade ago.

To the undiscerning this “i ended up where I began” process looks like zero progress, but it’s not. They are neglecting the working mental models (both emotionally - to correctly categorize the sheer variations of internal certainness + pragmatically - when one of these less-than-optimal varations is acted upon) & it is these mental models that solidfy yourself within yourself even more. I used to think this was a “bug” until i truly saw how it is in fact a feature.

The curious need to scratch the itch for ultimate conviction to set in. If not scratched, and there is something acting as an open loop, conviction will only max-revv at like 90%. And any man who values competence will genuinely hate that - because he can feel that 10% of drag wrecking perfection. So then the itch is scratched, the mental model is built, 100% conviction steps in, and he is now able to enact his own greatness while being objectively closer to himself, even though externally he’s “in the exact same place he used to be”. But it’s not the same place, because he’s not the same man

“No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man” - Heraclitus

Started walking more (10-20k steps/day) & began to feel the lymphs release harder in sleep. U feel it through the mouth/tongue, is unique taste/feel that u eventually learn to identify.

After walking a bunch I felt this mechanism get ramped up (moreso than lifting or sports ever did). Had thought “walking is the core mechanism that gets them to drain, because the are going harder now than any other exercise i’ve done”

Then realized that they are in perfect spots to be “shaken up” via walking. Armpits (arms move while walking), knees (extend while walking), collarbone (rotates when walking). Interesting part is extended walking gets them to drain harder than any other intense exercise

The “epiphany” was “oh, they are designed to drain/cleanse from walking”. Seems monstrously obvious as I write this & there is probably multiple papers written about this but it all just connected together in my brain from personal experience

Go on more walks Easy way to learn to identify this feeling is get lymph massages (or watch a video on how to massage your own) & then pay attention to what you taste / feel in the mornings after they release in sleep

Eventually you’re able to basically gauge how “toxic” something is TO YOU by how aggressive the lymphs go after you rest

By far the craziest “catalyst” of this i’ve experienced is extended walking. Almost Goes harder (it might even go harder) than lymph massages

If you replaced every excuse you ever make with the core question(s) of “how is this problem resulting from a leadership issue on my end & what can i do right now to patch up this problem, no matter how poorly?”

You’ll 10x your life in 12 calendar months.

Take your power back.
You are larger than any problem. You’ll also be very surprised at how much lower the quality of solution requried IS to “solve the problem well enough to get you to the next problem” then what you’ve built it up to in your mind to be

Patch, go, patch go, then make better as you see obvious opportunities to do so

Exploding your life & freeing yourself is ironically infinitely less effort than holding all the shit you hate & despise together

The former is 1 conversation away. The latter is a lifetime of perpetual energetic exhaustion

if u don't like ur life, realize how monstrously fucking hard u r going at sustaining it. U r actively catching all the pieces, gluing them together, being neurotic about them falling back off, catching them when they fall again, etc. Genuinely heroic amounts of perpetual exhaustion to maintain the cell walls of the prison that you bang on & cry over at 1:31 am.

When u truly see this, u'll just laugh The problem is the invisible forcefield of FEAR that is wrapping & entrenching you in this slave-life of perpetual infinity labor

"just quit"
"just end it"
"just bail"

You: "i can't"

What you falsely think is real & supports the "can't" = where the dagger needs to pierce

Skill progression is solving bottlenecks. Requires discernment to pointpoint & identify

When u suck at something u gotta know how u suck at it. Then once u know what u suck at u gotta know how to train that thing specifically. Then u get back in, see how much u did or didn’t progress, and repeat

If u did progress u know ur training worked. If u didn’t progress then u know ur training didn’g work

If u progressed (training worked) but u didn’t get any better @ overall result then u trained the wrong thing / didn’t train the weakest part(s) of the chain / pinpointed wrong bottleneck

Once u can identify what is wrong, what to work on & how to train the specific thing w/ ton of low-risk micro reps & then testing it in battlefield to see how good the training was or is - u can speed thru any skillstack People don’t have the foundational mental model (or IQ?) to test & see if things extrapolate to other things or not. This is absolute base level

I can chip foam golfballs in my living room & it actually gets me better at real chipping. How do I know? Because I practiced a ton with the foam obes and then my chipping in a real golf round was noticably better. Translated.

If i practiced a ton using foam and i wasn’t better (or worse) then I know my training isn’t helping me so i’d need a new strat

The closer u can pinpoint the issue, the more specifically u can dial in the training

What nobody tells you is the larget income jumps of your life will actually start with expenses, not wins

U need ur psyche to get raped at level 2 to be free enough to move to level 3

Repeat forever

The attachment to preservation is what stops ppl from ascending because u gotta throw javelins to get 1 to hit. But in order to throw 1 u gotta take 1 out of the pocket. And if u miss u gotta take out another. So if ur scared to go below 8 & ur now at 6, u r fucked. If a javelin landing is +10, then Ironically u may need to be okay with going down to +3 to then get a hit & jump to +13 from +8 This is what making more or doing more looks like btw. It’s bigger swings at higher levels with the CONFIDENCE that those bigger swings/drawdowns (or spending drawdowns) are following mathmatics so ur not freaking out in micro

It’s not u get to level 8, then chill then jump to level 9

It’s u start from 8, fire, miss, fire miss, then go down to 3 to get a hit that takes u up to 13

Then from 13 u might go down to 4-5 to get to 20

A lot of your mindset issues come down to unarticulated math

If you ran the numbers, you’d have the clarity you need to confidently move forwrad

Math kills ambiguity

Math kills fear You’re only afraid to talk to a girl cuz u don’t know the math

Only afraid to lauch ur biz cuz u don’t know the math

Only afraid to chadspend because you don’t know the math

Let reality calm you. But u must first LOOK at it

U know what the problems in your life are but you just delay fixing them for fucking ever

Stop delaying and just fix one problem. Who cares if its the "right" solution, just patch it up & move on to the next one.

People way too worried about "is this the right duct tape". Who gives a fuck. Is the boat leaking? No? Great. Now ur sailing.

Confront, patch, test. If it's not working, re-patch until it "works for you". It won't be pretty or "societally normal" but u gotta train ur mind to genuinely not give a fuck. If it solves ur problem it's fair game, regardless of appearance. If u can get urself to operate off of ur own patches, u can make progress 100x faster than u ever have before. Almost all lost speed is due to worrying abut the normality/technicality of the patch.

just fix the problem "standard" or "societally appropriate" shit is NPC/normie behavior. it is literally designed to enslave, slow down, bureaucratize, destroy, entrap, constrain, restrict, castrate

Lifting your eyes up to societal level to "normalcy-compare" any solution is instant way to nuke your own intuition / instinct / read. Absolute spiritual death for zero actual benefit/ROI

Ur intuition knows how to fix ur problem. So just fix it like that. It will work after u refine it a bit. Refuse the urge to compare it to normality & work with what it is & use that to move on to next one. Then u'll have a chain of 2 solves. Then 3. And ur magically in ur own lane, progressing upstream via ur own style

It is almost unfathomable how much more the body knows compared to the mind

I know all I feel. But i can’t articulate all I feel. It’s like the iceberg pic. 99.999999% of knowledge in body while .0000001% is articulated

The body is almost “all knowing”. Many factors & variables work with it that we don’t “consider” part of the equation. Nonphysical + nonmaterial + the divine all intertwined

If your body feels something is off or wrong for you, you are probably right. I always trust body over my mind because my body will know when my mind yet won’t know why This is why the key is loving urself. Cuz if u love urself u’ll build the self esteem to trust urself. And trusting urself is trusting that directionality compass in ur soul that fires off 24/7. Trusting urself is obeying it despite whatever it telling u that may go against logic or “may make less sense”.

Life DESIGN will give you more meaning than almost anything INDIVIDUALLY that you’re doing, because it encompasses all

Design is what will wake you up in the morning. When EVERY PIECE serves a purpose - even the pieces that serve no purpose.

Take a look at your pieces & holistically weave them into a vision that makes you excited. Create big targets u know u can hit. Fuck normal & fuck other people’s definitions of normal.

Go big. Make it weird (eccentric in the sense that it’s “very you”). Make it exciting. Tailor your life to yourself. Tee up your own perfect-for-you swings & fucking launch.

The struggle will only become fun when YOUR design is the one being played out. Ur gna hate ur life being someone else’s design bot.

Hit drawing board, fuck with the pieces / plan until ur soul sings, then caffeinate & execute EVERY DAY. Ball moves forward, absolutely non-negotiable. Even if just 1 micro inch.

If u can place commitment to seeing your design through till the end, and sacrifice to that altar daily by a MINIMUM of at least 1 micro inch of movement, every day for as long as it takes

God will not only reward you THEN, but also forever, as you blend into the type of man that can make progress, “even in the storm”. If u know u’ll never quit & will simply design your way around ANY obstacle

How can u fail?

U can’t. Unless u stop.

Ur mind is only variable that can overcome all other variables. And it is intertwined WITHIN nature. WITHIN the universe. God’s intelligent design runs deep

One interesting facet of normie psyche i've learned about by existing on twitter for 2 years is the concept of "feeling behind"

I get DM's like this all of the time. "i feel behind for my age". When i first started receiving these I genuinely didn't know what the fuck these DM's meant because I had quite literally never viewed life through that lens. I then asked some kid what he meant and he goes "i'm just behind my friends". I was like uhhh in what metric? In making less per year? lmfao. What a strange way to construct reality. Your entire orientation dependent on everyone that isn't you🤣🤣

After talking to this kid I then learned that normies have an imagined concept of "ahead" in their brain, and if they are farther along than that imagined concept, they feel good. If they aren't, they don't. And it depends on what their other normie friends do.

"if I have a $75k/yr job, then I'm ahead!!"🤣🤣
"if I have a graduate degree but am $100k in debt, i'm ahead!!!!"

Retards

Horrible way to live lmao. If I had this weird comparison metric in my brain I wouldn't have bailed on the autopilot 6-fig sales job at 25.

There is literally no bar. Nobody does anything. Nobody tries at anything. Put in 10% of self-generated effort into anything independently and u r in the 1%

Have to get rid of the general "i'm behind". It means you're literally a bot, optimizing for nothing specific. I was 55k in debt at 26 taking a shot on a business & i could have given a fuck where anyone placed me. Was I ahead? Was i behind? who the fuck knows or cares. it doesn't even make any sense. If doesn't even have aj actual definition, because it depends on a specific metric. And if that specific metric is ONLY money, u r very spiritually gay. "oh i make $10k more in my salaried job than sam but i can't go anywhere and hate my life"

bots For the ND's (nondiscerners) - i'm not attacking OP by the way - his tweet just popped up on my feed. Looks like he makes cool knives. I am attacking only the IDEA of "behind".

When i learned this was a thing I was like "oh shit no wonder the average person is monstrously depressed. their literal entire life orientation is foundationally constructed on comparing their life to other peoples".

Then they ask questions like "how do i stop caring what others think"
"how do i get over rejection"
"how do i (insert whatever fear)"

Brother u r already cooked lmao. Your foundation is already erroneous. U have to literally start at the deepest part of ur psyche, explode & rebuild.

It's all very simple:

pick a goal that excites you, make a plan, fix your energy, attack daily. That's quite literally all it is. Nobody does THAT. That's the secret. "oh no i better charge you $100,000 for that".

"i'm behind"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

N*gga you GAY

If you fix your energy everything will basically fix itself. But there's a "two week shit period" that you have to go through to get to "actual energy". An amount of energy/power you probably haven't touched before, unless you have. And it's not hard to touch

1) No coffee/stims/alch
2) Real foods
3) 8 hours of sleep with same wake/sleep cycle
4) Workout 4x/week
5) Drink enough water

That's literally it. So retardedly simple that most people go "wah" & don't actually understand the power in it because they haven't done it. When you cold turkey the bullshit you will be tired / low energy for about 14 days. Ur hunger will also maxxxxrev. In this 14 day window, Just sleep when u need to & eat as much as u need to. "free pass" for discipline on the minors, the MAJOR is just making it to day 14.

Then once ur there ur energy will be at levels u can't fathom. Then u go "oh", and have now developed a system to always get yourself back up there when you need it ur not unmotivated, u have no energy

ur not undisciplined, u have no energy

ur not lost, u have no energy

it IS actually your root problem. But you subconsciously nuke it over & over again because you're afraid to feel

There’s a lot of people that u essentially have 2 dominate with love. Lovemog them into submission

They have weird personality defenses they’ve built up that are just flat out annoying as fuck. They either purposely poke/instigate or habitually pull away during any micro conflict. SUPER fucking annoying to deal with, but their internal world craves closeness & appreciation. They r just ironically behaving in a manner that attracts the opposite in a weird form of self-fulfilling prophecy

Depending on context sometimes i will see thru the shell/facade & can pierce internals with compassion. U can sometimes turn these ppl & get them to chill the fuck out. It is mostly futile tho. Everyone deserves what they get, but u can pick at divine order almost like its a hobby. To see if a change can be made just in & of itself like a mini science experiment

Only those who romanticize life & can play with the abstract can deal with these ppl. Everyone else just avoids them due to their monstrous, glaring character flaws. Their inability to deal with people due to very high emotional fragility/volatility

Most futile to try & pierce but it can be fun for sport. Some do drop the bullshit & become normal humans temporarily. U connect w/ the soul & not the construction. If that is even possible The issue is if you’re the type of person that is able to hover above their bullshit long enough to try & love-dagger them out of their retarded loops like a targeted spearfisherman, u will have a short fuse. Unbeknownst to them they get a good 2-3 opportunities for the spear to land, and if it doesn’t u will move on & just consider them a lost cause. Sad in a way but that’s divine order at play. Can’t save anyone, but maybe can guide a couple lost 1’s into a better direction. Essentially is a detached pity situation. U know pain so u want to trust & break other’s pain spells when they’re too obvious to ignore. Again, mostly futile. But rewarding sometimes. Fun part is u get 2 pick & choose

Guys think “master game” and “master sales” means “get any bitch” or “sell any client”

Not how it works

Mastering both is getting better at COMMUNICATING your value so the lowest on the discernment rung are able to go “oh DiS TiNG Is GoOOD”. But those are ONLY of the 1’s in the “YES” category, of which not everyone is in

If it’s not a fit, it’s not a fit. And this is the blindspot. The whitebelt thinks “Imma cOnVeRt aLL PrOspEcTs”

The blackbelt knows that if the client has signs of retardation, he’s probably a retard. That’s a guy you would never WANT to close.

The fit is the fit. Eventually u close basically all fits, but YOU reject all non-fits. If ur fumbling FITS, skill issue The self-esteem horseshoe is when you realize you don’t WANT to close everyone becsuse why tf would you close a bad fit. Makes ZERO sense.

“Oh I GoT The cLoSe!”. That is insecure POV. But is it the RIGHT close?

Focus shifts from young “winning at all” to more mature “winning correctly”

For a woman to get married, she quite literally only has to be 2 things:

1) not fat
2) not annoying

The uanmarried non-annoyings are fat (but actually also annoying) and the non-fats who think they aren’t annoying (and genuinely believe they are “waiting for the right man” because “i’m the right woman” are astronomically annoying but don’t realize it (self-awareness issue).

Wives get wifed. Zero exceptions. Any wifey i’ve ever met gets wifed fast as fuck if somehow they end up temporarily single

And all the non-wifeys just wife stay single forever, never getting wifed, convincing themselves “there’s a problem with men”. 😂

Lesson in there.

Getting rich “slow” is dead. Old world was make a milli in 7 years. Now You can make million(s) in 2-3 years. The J-curve is much more aggressive.

There are also a fuckton of ways for you to get rich. It’s actually overwhelming, and they all work. But you have to develop the skill of “choosing and running the process” or you’re completely fucked because there are infinite “bright & shiny objects” to distract you.

Don’t “dabble around and see what works”. Not how the world works. COMMIT to 1 and MAKE IT work. And THAT is actually the skill - having the SIGHT to know what to commit to.

When you begin you don’t know enough about the world to say “yep that opportunity is way better than that one”. You have no fucking clue. So you could be in an opportunity that you THINK is a 9/10 but id actually a 1/10. OR you think it’s a 1/10 but it’s actually a 9/10. You simply can’t “see it”.

Then the guy who CAN discern properly days “just commit!”. But what he doesn’t tell you is that he has ACQUIRED the sight to KNOW what is worth committing to.

Beginners don’t have this. They are hopelessly lost in the blindness of inexperience. Ur best bet is 2 pick something that someone to ur similar personality type has succeeded in, & refuse to stop until u make it work at a micro level. 1 win, 1 success, $1. Ironically this is all super fucking natural. What mentor are you naturally drawn to? Just go that way. Don’t overthink it. And then when it doesn’t work as fast as u want it to (bcuz u suck rn cuz ur a beginner), and they say “yo it works keep going”, u just keep going.

That’s literally the secret. 99% will ignore

Ironically how you get everything is just letting go of all need for the result (accepting a reality if you were to never get it on the front end) and just having fun from that place of zero fucks 2 give

But at the same time knowing that is actually how you actually get it Letting go of it & not giving a fuck about it is actually the stance you take if you REALLY FUCKING WANT IT & refuse to ever not get it

Most can’t pull from opposite ends

The trust fall is how you push the hardest
