Warning: This thread is one part sociological theory with an RP perspective, one part discussion on my self improvement post-swallowing-trp, and one part discussing what to do when you hit a brick wall with your self improvement or red pill journey. If you're wondering why you should listen to anything some 18 year old college student has to say, i'll tell you why: I'm from the internet.

I've split my own self improvement stories, successes, failures, and experiences into five separate parts: Clothing and style, women and sex, fitness and health, social and financial, and "other". If you're only interested in one of those, feel free to skip ahead. They're marked.

There is no TLDR for this thread. You may get to the end and feel like it was a waste of time. I highly doubt it though, as I'm fucking awesome. Don't bother asking for a TLDR because I won't write one.

So as many of you know, several months ago I made a thread about how my life was fucked and I was about to give up and end it. If you haven't read that thread, you should aware yourself. It took a lot of chutzpah to write and I think I did a bangup job portraying not only how fucked up my life was, but how easy it is to fix a fucked up life if you approach it in the right way.

There comes a part in every man's life where he has to put himself to the test. Against all odds, against all reason and logic, and against the warm embrace of low expectations and security in mediocrity; he must challenge himself.

For me, that moment was when I made the first thread on my previous 'red pill' pseudonym, 'beiberfan1995'. A lot of you sympathized with my upbringing. I spoke about being emotionally castrated by Lesbians who, with respect to the fact that they also had bad upbringings, I will only dub as plain bad people.

I believe in life there are three schools of thought.

One where you believe external factors such as society are what shape your life. You generally believe that there are bigger factors in play in your life than you yourself

One where you refute the idea that society plays any role in your life. You think you are the one to shape society, the individual that can make the difference, whether delusion or truth.

And lastly, the belief that it's pretty much impossible to have any impact on your life or society. You may live life on autopilot and just live to see the next day. You may wish you had the moments of clarity you felt as a child or a teenager. You feel as though you were dealt a deck of cards and that's just what you get and you should make the best of it. Maybe you bought the 2 kids and an aging wife and a white picket fence delusion, or maybe you went socially FA and are struggling with a resentment but you don't know where to aim it?

Here's the truth: Together, they're all correct. Society will impact your life and you can't be held accountable for everything.
