A library of ideas builds a mind that can achieve almost anything. Every creation is a product of ideas.

Protect your energy from the outside world and you increase your ability to channel it productively.

Staying focused is a matter of solidifying internal beliefs.

Narcissistic people are the sort of humans who will spread rumours and lies about another in order to enhance their own self-image. Be careful when dealing with these types; they care only about how they appear to the world, not who they truly are.

The more experience you have, the more dots you can connect. If your arsenal of knowledge expands, the weapons available diversify. You need mental weapons to successfully traverse the outside world.

Stages of Ambition Stage 1: “I just wanna make money and live off the grid” Stage 2: “Life is a game and I can’t seem to escape it” - Inception Stage 3: You enter the game PROPER Stage 4: “I will do whatever it takes”

The Inevitable Fall If you’re an extremely aggressive male, with a high sense of self, and the urge to get whatever you want, you WILL hit rock bottom. It’s impossible to escape this. I’ve seen it countless times. The more your aggression, the less your aversion to risk. That’s why the greatest sin for a man (as seen through the eyes of other men) is cowardice. You will burn shit down. You will fuck things up. You will taste hell. It’s a symptom of taking too many risks, or just being too arrogant. Both of which are linked to higher testosterone levels and aggression. Whether manufactured or innate. If you’ve already passed that phase, you should be looking to stabilize and be more calculative and risk-averse. Build a solid foundation. Understand what phase of life you’re in and accelerate it so you move faster. For every blessing, there is an accompanying curse. Impose your will. No better bargain than getting to be born male. You’re blessed.

On Nature’s Elimination Game Some thoughts may seem cruel, but one must be able to play Devil’s Advocate in some scenario to get certain perspectives. These perspectives can be extrapolated to other areas of life and thus the true source of knowledge is never direct. This is one of such cases. So man is the Apex Predator and he has rebuilt the Earth in his image. He decides what creatures are worthy of which awards and he has named them as he pleases. He classifies them and experiments on them. He decides which of them should be eaten and which shouldn’t. But he forbids them all from eating him. That is taboo and “unnatural” He calls his exploitation of their environments and their deaths an “issue to be looked into” but them killing him is an “emergency” He decides where they are allowed to live and where they must not venture. When they revolt, he punishes them. He owns them. And he owns Earth. Now
 THIS IS NOT about man and animals.

ENERGY is the lifeblood of ambition. Intelligence without energy takes too much time. There is finite amount of time to achieve whatever you want to achieve. If your energy levels are low, do whatever it takes to increase them. The higher your energy levels, the better for all your goals.

Additionally: You can look at the evidence: - Men go to war. - Men invented fighting sports and are the predominant consumers and participants. - Being sedentary for too long can lower your T levels as a man. - The most common outlets of high testosterone is activity and the most extreme of activities are violent activities. - More men are willing to get into physical confrontations than women. Most street fights are men. When you look at it from a 'good' or 'bad' perspective, it becomes easy to be bias. But nature doesn't lie and the evidence is everywhere.

What narrative should I follow? Simply: Whichever narrative helps you achieve your goals. “But how do I know which one works” Well
 That depends on what your goals are. Your favorite gurus online are also humans. They have their narratives which they push out to the world. But these narratives aren’t always gonna be useful to you. Understand that these are what worked for them and may work for you. But that all depends on WHAT you want to achieve. Think of ideologies as tools. You can pick up endless ideologies. This is dangerous. It is easy to find yourself listening to hundreds, even thousands of different narratives and subconsciously picking up a lot of garbage that would do you more harm than good. This can have a detrimental effect on you as you get lost in the vast sea of information constantly being churned out. Your mind is your greatest weapon. You have to protect it at all costs. This means you have to be conscious of what goes into your head and what stays there. Daily reflections can help you purge your out some of those ideas that sneak in subconsciously. Meditation is not a luxury. As you train your body with physical workouts, so also you should train your mind daily. Meditate daily. The body and mind are bonded to each other. Neither can operate at full capacity without the other. When one deteriorates, the other follows. You’ve heard this many times. This should be a reminder for those who are yet to get on the habit. Start today.

Machiavellian Maxims PART 6: FEIGNED FORGIVENESS Sometimes you have to forgive. Even when you don't want to forgive and when you don't want to associate with the offender. But do you? Harboring hate in your heart does you no good. However, it is possible to reduce the intensity with which you feel a certain way until the time is right. You can pretend to forgive a person even when you haven't (plan revenge in the future). But why should you pretend to forgive someone you haven't really forgiven?? Politicians do it all the time. Sometimes a superior will commit an unforgivable act but unfortunately for you, you're not in the capacity to exert vengeance. They've been cases where a senior pastor has sex with the wife of his subordinate. This particular one claimed the devil used him and asked for forgiveness. (But the man had been sleeping with her for over 2 years before they were caught). If you ask me, I’ll say that devil must have used him thoroughly. Anyway, not to digress... What would you do if you were the subordinate? The man in question remained loyal and the perpetrator received no punishment. If the mayor murdered your entire family, what would you do? In a situation where you can't do anything, the best course of action is to feign forgiveness and bide your time. This is also why ascending the hierarchy is important. You must be moving up. You must be gathering resources and garnering influence. You don't have to be higher than the perpetrator to exert revenge, but for each perpetrator, there's a level necessary for you to reach before you can effectively execute vengeance. When it comes to sensitive issues like these, you do not let emotions get in the way. Serve them if you must. Remain under them if you must. Keep your pains inside and lick your wounds. Use their resources to grow stronger and when the time is right, exert your revenge. Never be in a hurry to fight back. Be patient, and in due time, you might get your revenge.

The First 24 Hours 12 hours ago we launched ‘Fabric Of Reality’ My latest audio course on my ‘Substance Use Rehabilitation.’ The course is currently still available at 50% the price, but the price is going up in the next 12 hours. — – ‱ — – I want to talk to you about how the first 24 hours of my recovery started: It was in the most unexpected of places: jail. I only spent a night in there, but looking back, I’m not only grateful for every other day that I spend not locked inside, But I’m absolutely grateful for every breath of fresh air I get to take outside. Being locked in without the keys absolutely changed my entire perspective on reality. And I soon realised a very fundamental truth about life—something I had never thought of before that one night. First, I never wanted to have that experience again, and so I was determined not to find myself locked in again. But even more crucial was what I realised: And that is that we’re all prisoners of some sort. The only difference being that some of us get to hold the keys, while others have their keys taken. Never take this for granted. The sheer amount of delirium and confusion I felt triggered so many emotions within me, and I couldn’t wait for morning to come. It was a very long night. And I was awake all through the night till the doors were unlocked. My mind was simply pondering the many chain of events that had led me to find myself locked in, and eventually the morning came: And the doors were unlocked! I didn’t think I’d ever be the same again. It dawned on me how my recklessness had grown to such an uncontrollable degree, and how my desire for pleasure had managed to override my senses. That night, my mind couldn’t stop racing. But one thing I decided for sure was that I had to find a way to get myself out of the clutches of substance abuse. And I knew I needed help. When I was released on bail, I cleaned myself up, and took a long nap. I’ll admit to you, I still didn’t acknowledge to myself—immediately—that I was in the wrong, and the urge / excuse to use a different substance as a way to control myself still poked it’s ugly head. It wasn’t until I had sobered up that I realised how strongly I was under the influence. Such is the life of Dopamine Detox. Do not expect to cut off all of a sudden. Before you get to a point of complete sobriety, you might have to go down from a ‘higher high’ to a ‘lower high,’ and eventually, to ‘zero high.’ Sometimes this looks like a gradual reduction in the dosage of the substance—with days of abstinence in-between. This is done to alleviate possible withdrawal syndromes that may occur were you to go cold turkey all of a sudden. What you’re trying to achieve is to help your body slowly learn how to stay off of the substance as calmly as possible. It wasn’t without much struggle though. Soon I realised that I was not only endangering myself, but was also drawing unnecessary attention to myself. When you’re on substances, you tend to not be so conscious of what you’re doing, and most anything you do becomes automatic. I didn’t want that for myself. The idea of going back to jail was simply one I didn’t want to entertain. And so I had to find a way to make forward progress. My motivation being maintaining my freedom, which had been wrested from me. It was either I controlled my urge for pleasure, found a different outlet for it, or eventually it would be iron bars and steel doors. The choice was made. Getting clean was now no longer an option. Think on this too. Unless you learn to control whatever addiction to hard substances you may have, eventually, it might end up leading you astray. Nobody likes to have their freedom taken from them all of a sudden. For this very reason, getting sober is a must. — – ‱ — – If you’re reading this, then you’re still early to the launch of ‘Fabric Of Reality’ The audio course is still available at 50% the original price for the next 12 hours. Don’t waste this opportunity to get in early. The price will go up on day 2.

Insights from Fabric Of Reality: One thing that’s key to breaking from substance dependence is to first ‘stay off the weed!’ Addiction is Consumption. Weed heightens your bodily sensations way beyond the normal, and this is NOT GOOD! — Your hearing gets extremely louder, stressing your eardrums. — Your tastebuds get sensationalised beyond what is normal, making you want to put all manner of different substances into your mouth. — But worst of all is that the most important parts of your body—which are your brain / intellectual functioning and attention span—get dulled down. What this does is it effectively just turns you into an animal. Monkey See. Monkey Do. Weed is both the gateway drug and the exit drug from substance use dependence. If you can stay off every other substance except weed, and then eventually stay off the weed, then you’re well on your way to breaking free from the chains of addiction. Even toothpaste can become addictive as it contains pleasurable substances that make you want to put anything other than food into your mouth. — — – ‱ — – ‱ baron YāpĂ©t The World is Your Oyster | Seize Control

I couldn’t care less about anything in the world, except that I was able to get through the day without touching any hard drugs. As long I was able to eat, maintain my solitude—which is basically just quarantine of some sort—and read a few pages from a book, everything was perfect, and I could call it a day well spent. After some time, I was able to start going on short walks here and there, and eventually I was able to pick up the pen once again. And this, my dearest friend, is how you will also start your journey towards beating any form of addiction you may be currently struggling with. It will be slow progress. There will be days of mental torture. There will be sleepless nights. But I guarantee you, that if you will stick with the program, and follow it to the latter, You will eventually come to full sobriety. It won’t happen overnight. But if you persist long enough, you will see the results: — An increased attention span. — An absolute appreciation of nature. — A high affinity for clear auditory vibrations. — And an overall ‘heightened sense of self.’ In short, what I mean is: You will begin to love life again, without having to touch anything produced in a lab. This is how I was able to stay sober this long, and is also exactly what I’m offering you: Inside ‘Fabric Of Reality’ For the first 24 hours of launch, you get to grab it at a discount of 50% The price will go up on day 2, day 3, day 4, and day 5—where it will stay at original bill.

INTRODUCING: ‘Fabric Of Reality’ 🚀 🚀 🚀 The Mentor Who Changed Everything: At first I thought it was ‘cool’ But as time went by, and I reflected on my life, I began to realize that although I was making a lot of progress in what I thought was the most important aspect of life, my level of fulfilment had plunged to such a debilitating low than I had ever imagined possible. This is what drugs can do to you. Like all addicts, you don’t start from the hardest substances. It’s usually the littlest stimulants that open the gateway. Coffee. That was where I started from. It was the usual excuse: I need it for work! But soon I would come to realise that needing any sort of substance whatsoever for work was an invitation to more stimulation. Next, I started day drinking. And just like that the urges kept increasing as I somehow kept finding new ways to abuse my body. It didn’t feel like abuse though, since it felt good. And the more I kept believing that I was ‘doing this for work’ the more my resolve to continue usage strengthened. This was the beginning of a solid two year streak of substance abuse. So, how was I able to break free? I couldn’t have done it on my own. I started to seek help. Went to see an old friend and explained to him what I was going through. He could see I was very unfulfilled. He didn’t offer me too much advice though, he just told me to go and meet my ‘Dad.’ Yes. That’s correct. My Father is the Mentor who changed everything for me. At first I was confused. Because during that time, my relationship with my family wasn’t very strong, and I had been away from home for so long. I couldn’t understand what he meant by that. Here I was talking about being addicted to at least a variety of 7 different over-the-counter as well as street drugs, and all this guy was advising me to do was to go and meet my Father. It didn’t make any sense at the time. I thought to myself: “What could my old man possibly know about these drugs and how to break free from them.” But then I remembered that my Dad had worked as a Doctor during his Youth. It didn’t occur to me immediately, but soon I started to realize, once a Doctor, still a Doctor. So, on I went. When I came back home from my numerous ‘exploits,’ which had been the time when I had managed to develop even more addictions than I had initially started off with, I was in a state of utter confusion. My parents couldn’t recognise their son anymore. And I was easily distracted by the tiniest hint of violence. My mind had been wrested over by PTSD. First, I was hesitant and turned to my old friends in the neighborhood, whom I thought, being my peers, should’ve been able to understand my condition better. This was an absolute waste of my time. They were all either struggling with addictions of their own, or simply didn’t care to even look into what was bothering me. After much struggle with my pride, an outbreak of emotions here and there, and a very cold and reflective night at the local jail, I knew I had to find a way fast, or I was gonna get wrecked beyond what I was going through—which I thought was already too much at the moment. This was it, It was either I was gonna come clean to my family first and admit I needed help, follow the instructions to the latter or I was eventually gonna get myself wrecked. And believe me, as much as I hate to admit it, breaking the chains of addiction starts not from abstinence, but from a firm resolve. Your mind must be made up before you can take the very first step that changes everything for you. And that was exactly how I started
 I chose honesty over games. And when I saw the way out, I must admit, it wasn’t pretty, but it does get the job done. You must wrest back control over your mind. By dissolving every idea I once held about substance use, I was able to focus solely on getting sober and absolutely nothing else. While counting the days of sobriety, I didn’t care that I was broke, single, and without a friend to talk to on most days.

Machiavellian Maxims PART 5: STRAIGHT DENIAL Never give up the position that's advantageous to you. Admitting is not an option, hold your ground until evidence is found. This is the best direction you can take. If asked whether you did xyz or not, and by admitting you did xyz you put yourself in a position of disadvantage, say you did not do xyz. It doesn't matter if you did xyz or not, straight up deny it. Everybody has something to hide. If you get caught, where the accuser presents irrefutable evidence that you in fact did xyz, then it still wouldn't matter that you denied it. It's understandable that a man will try to protect his reputation. Moreover, whether you denied it or admitted to it, if you’re caught, the consequences remain the same. But, in the case where such evidence is not provided and you are able to hold your ground, you win. However, if you admit to doing xyz at the slightest probe, you automatically lose without giving yourself the chance to escape. Put up a resistance in your own interest. Don't let them get you too easy. This applies to a lot of scenarios; from the dirtiest to the slightest slip-ups. Most times your accuser will be unable to provide evidence to back up their accusations. Sometimes they will bluff to see if you’ll crack. Remember, your position is not guilty until proven guilty.

On Wanting To Be SEEN There’s a certain structure tied into our existence and the continuity of it that makes the need to be ‘SEEN / ACKNOWLEDGED’ arise in us. The higher up a person goes, the less they want to be seen. That is why anonymous people who aren’t SUPER FUCKING WEALTHY are an anomaly. It’s like “If you aren’t super rich why aren’t you trying to claim the fame
” Doesn’t make sense to many people. When a person gets to the very top, they wish to hide their identity because it is now a burden on their everyday life. Celebrities think they want fame, but what they really want is money minus the fame (I’ll get to this in a bit
). When they get fame they instantly regret it. No longer able to go out in public and do stuff without being harassed by morons. Most only discover this after acquiring the fame. But what is it in us that makes us want to be seen in the first place? Why do people care about popularity and acknowledgement. Even on the internet. It’s the same instinct for acknowledgment
 NOTE, not approval, but ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. People don’t care HOW they go viral. Everybody loves it when they go viral, whether for a positive thing or a negative thing. Yes, everybody would prefer it to be that they went viral because of a charity work they did or some philanthropic deed, but I can guarantee El Chapo didn’t care that he was infamous rather than famous. The acknowledgment matters more than the color of image painted. It’s simple. Being seen is tired to importance. Importance is tired to status. Status is tired to power. Power dictates what you can get. This is why men care that when they walk into a room, everybody acknowledges their entrance. Nobody wants to walk into a room and have everybody act like an entity didn’t just appear. If you walk into a room and nobody acknowledges your presence, then you’re the least important person in that room. This means you’re at the bottom of the food chain. So, instinctively you’ve learned that the more you’re acknowledged, the more important you are. But this wasn’t done consciously. It was done at the back of your head. Everybody is building an audience even when they don’t know HOW to monetize it. They just start. Because with an audience you can use ‘Social Proof’ to monetize. If person A sees person B doing xyz, they are likely to also do the same. That’s why posts that start getting likes early usually get more likes. Nobody wants to be the first to like a post. That’s them putting their STAMP of approval. If they are the only one doing it, then that means they are the only one supporting it, and we all know people love to move in flocks. Back to the matter at hand: The desire to be seen is linked to the desire to live. It’s the end confirmation of importance which is directly linked to whether you get to live or not. The higher your importance, the harder it is for you to go out. So everybody wants to increase their importance in order to ensure the stability of their survival. Here’s something that’ll blow your mind: People often wonder why male celebrities go crazy when a lady ghosts them or ignores them. This is because the individual has made themselves so important
 (as they think they are important to everybody but social proof is actually the mechanism, in actuality, no celebrity is important in your life) 
for a person to NOT acknowledge them is illogical. It fucks with the feedback loop. “How am I so important when this person doesn’t even care about talking to me? But I am important. But why won’t they talk to me if I’m so important?” See how that fucks with the feedback loop and with the person’s mind? This pushes people to impulsivity trying to reassert their importance by publicizing it and waiting for the public to side with them so they can reaffirm their reality. The higher up a person goes, the more irritable they get. The easier it is to upset them. The more angry they get when you leave them on read. The more replying to them on time becomes important.

Elon Musk will not wait 24 hours to talk to you. It’s because everything has to fit their reality that essentially ties back to the existence of that individual. It’s sort of a primal instinct, but it has shaped itself into a very sophisticated form. Now we care about DMs and people returning calls. The more SEEN and ACKNOWLEDGED a person feels, the more the stability of their reality is reaffirmed. This is why being ‘Left On Read’ is a thing. This is why ‘Not Returning Calls’ is a thing. This is why gaining likes on a post is a thing. The people who understand that the ultimate aim is not to be seen but to actually get what you want are the ones who pursue money minus the fame. They are the ones that don’t publicize their relationship problems on the internet. They are the ones that understand the tool is just a tool. This is why people, regardless of the money they have, would still want social media accounts with large followings. Everything works to reaffirm the stability of the individual’s reality. But many have come to see the tool as the goal.
