You don't plant seeds then dig them up every few minutes to see if they've grown. So why do you keep questioning yourself, your hard work, and your decisions? Be patient, stop overthinking, and keep watering your seeds.

Do not wait till all variables are perfectly in place to take action. Use whatever tools are at your disposal NOW to begin. Perfectionism is the precursor to procrastination, endless delays, and missed opportunities. Some progress today is better than major progress next year.

We have begun to mistake comfort for surrogate activities. At some point, after enough time, a man will set off on his heroic journey because the comfort sickens him. He knows he is living in the shadow of who he can be. His desire to reach higher levels of self eventually overcomes comfort. But not with surrogate activities. They satiate that desire leaving you like a sitting duck, waiting for life to happen to you, to bend you over and fuck you like a pig.

PSA: you’re not hopeless, you’re just unoccupied. It doesn’t matter how much self control you have, how committed you are, now religious you are or how motivated you are. Unless you are actively busy doing/building/managing something, you will have inherent risk of relapsing due to idle occupancy time. If you’re tempted to jack off at home - it’s because you’re not supposed to be at home - go outside and get shit done. Literally just walking outside is more beneficial than staying at home. If you’re tempted when you’re in bed - it’s because you’re not tired enough - shame on you for being a lazy fuck the entire day to have left over energy at the end of the day. Stop being chronically online, start being productive and make a habit of looking at yourself in the mirror at the end of every day and reporting to yourself what the fuck you’ve done today that was actually useful to the world. TL;DR: Stop being a lazy fuck and get a job nigger.

I've come to the conclusion that one of the most dangerous things in the modern world is surrogate activities. Vices like Alcohol, Drugs, and cigarettes', these target the body and mind. Social Media, Pornography, Videogames, all of these modern vices target the soul and destroy us from the inside. All of us, once past our basic human needs, have a desire for more in the forms of Love and Belonging, Self-Esteem, and Self Actualization (refer to Maslow's Hierarchy of needs for specific examples of what these look like), and naturally, we are conditioned to seek them out. When we seek them out, we take action in the world and form meaningful connections, making us happy and help us bring happiness to others. Modern vices subvert this by acting as surrogate activities for these needs. Want to look good and connect with people? Go on social media, you get to live your life through the lens of others. Sure you never went to Venice, but you saw the pictures from someone who did. Sure you never talked to that girl, but you saw a POV from a pickup artist who did. Want to find intimacy with someone? No problem, pick your model from a list of porno sites, right down to the situation. Want to achieve something big? Play a video game. Why not start a business in a server instead of starting on in real life? All of these modern vices meets the higher levels of human needs without the risk of actually doing it, and I theorize that it acts as a level cap for people who would otherwise go out into the world and do things. It keeps people comfortable instead of being the greatest version of themselves. Once you're past survival, these literally sap your Vril and disable your Will to Power. If you have to use these, make your time productive with it. If you're watching YouTube, take notes on whatever you watched, treat it as a study time rather than leisure time. Use social media to connect with other, not in a shallow "I Liked her post" way, but to find like minded people and meet up. Maybe you can use videogames to unwind or as a social activity, or even strategy/management games to simulate problems, but never let them reach a point where you feel proud of what you did in game. A good test for surrogate activities is to see if you say "Wow, I really enjoyed watching/doing that (in game)" or "Wow, you can do that? I should try that later today". If the activity that you do gives you a sense of satisfaction that you would otherwise get from doing it in real life, its a surrogate.

Never giving up. Never giving in. Always pushing to what calls you. Right until the end.

Hey friends, Deleting this channel for a year. I am going to delete the page tonight. I just wanted to take the opportunity and say: no matter what happens in life everything will be ok. Keep your integrity, love your brothers and sisters, and march to the beat of your own soul. It was an honor to speak with you for this long, whether it was 10 of you or 10,000. I will see you there, at the terminus of our journey to the end of the Night.

Nah bro don't do it, you got it in you, don't quit now

Your life becomes a masterpiece when you learn to master peace.
Your life becomes a masterpiece when you learn to master peace.

Buy that vehicle you’ve been dreaming of in private. Don’t tell anyone you did it. Then show up in your new vehicle. Buy some land in secret. Build your dream house in secret. Then have a house warming party after it’s complete. Date in private. Propose to them in private. Then marry them in front of a crowd of people. Never let your haters see your visions or plans. Allow them to only see what you want them to see. Never let them know your next move. When you play chess, you don't speak, you just make moves. The only time that you ever speak during a game of chess is to say checkmate. Life is like a game of chess. Don't broadcast your intentions to everyone. Act quietly. Make your moves in private. Keep building your success in private. Your achievements are your checkmate.
