I'm going to jump in here because you and I are very similar. Simple background: I co-founded a business, am self employed and I consider it an industrial firm (as opposed to the app world, etc.). I've struggled immensely socially (also outgrowing my friend circles) and have some thoughts for you, from a fellow ultra-high, "lets sacrifice everything and bleed from the eyes" achiever. First: Let's comment on who you are. You are not like the others. You already know as much, but you really are an…

Failure has been the recurring story in my life. But failures don't stick with you - the few successes are what define you. You're right to point out the learning aspect to failure. The larger the disappointment - the greater the missed opportunity - the deeper the reflective period thereafter. The more it hurts, the better. To quote my grandfather: "Overcoming adversity is the measure of the man." I firmly believe - no, I know - that men are not born, they are forged. We are not to be celebrate…

Not 13 days later this still isn't being respected. Seeing what can be equated to personal blog posts about people and how they theorize TRP might work. Going to just start clicking the "report" button.

Thanks man. Coincidentally one of the books I'm reading now is on Julius Caeser's life. Always appreciate new areas to dig into for study.

Open minded on evidence. Close minded on thinking This is how I am with my work - extremely effective too. Need to start applying it to social applications more.

I enjoy running fast, not long. So I picked a pace that makes me almost unable to breathe, but I can still keep moving, and I maintain that until I can't. 4x/week or more, slowly add distance. It's doable. Transfers well into sex too.

Yeah that's basically how I run. I don't do full out sprints though. If a sprint is a 10/10 I alternate between 7/10-9/10 depending on how intense my music is haha. Can confirm with lifting advice as well. Thanks for commenting.

Groups are more afraid of you than you should be of them. I'd recommend shared activities like pool tables to start. That way the focus isn't on you to create entertainment for their group. And it's a way to not seem so focused on joining their group, just you out trying to have fun in the evening. If anyone asks, "my friends are on their way, I'm not sure where they landed".

There's a point where you're at aerobic/anaerobic respiration. Almost unable to breathe. If you aren't in shape you should be able to maintain this maybe 1/4 mile. I build up at that speed rather than try to run 8 miles slowly and then keep shaving time off. I'd consider it sprinting but it's not quite that.

My terminology for this is "input" and "output". I was an input guy for a long time (deliberately, knowing it wasn't perfectly useful) and have since made the transition to 100% output. My advice to anyone is alternate between input and output. And be aware of it.

25 and life full of personal trauma as a result of health issues (I'm older than my age would indicate). Take care of your mind guys. Seriously. It's worth getting to an intermediate knowledge of psychiatry (not psychology) in my opinion. I do serious damage now, although I wish I didn't have to have the bad to get the good. My number one advice for everyone is to question the world outside of TRP - you have a framework that works better than what is considered standard practice in society. Ther…

I can attempt to answer, since I very much had that misconception until your response (thank you for clarifying). I'm an introvert (not shy) and it takes serious effort to be social. This not an excuse or a complaint, just a choice. I can be quite good at it, it just takes a lot more effort over an extended period (think: months if not a year) to get there. MGTOW means celibacy for me unless I first put a lot of deliberate effort into TRP. As for priorities, my first ascent to an alpha of sorts …

As a short term strategy to get shit done I think it has its place. Or if you're at a point in life where women would consume too many resources (including time) where it's a pragmatic decision about priorities. Totally acceptable. Beyond that, given your correct grammar, you're smart enough to learn TRP and apply the tools. I did it once without any literature (8 years ago) and the key ingredient is persistence. It can take a lot of effort but it is worth it. You only get one life.

I think a lot of people have the ease of convincing themselves they are MGTOW but in reality are Blue Pill pretending not to care, still open to something if luck should have it. Only say this as I emerge from a "forced MGTOW" of sorts - severe health issues kept me sidelined for 5 years. Now I'm struggling to get it back. It's just as hard the second time since the landscape is so different (alpha at 17 vs. 25). Not saying this as in my MGTOW is the only true one, just that it can lead to a gen…

Appreciate your response. I expected something like what you're saying and fully agree. I used to do very well with women when I put time into it - this isn't something I'm worried about. My life is too complex to explain. And until you had the full picture, more detail would only add to what is indicated in my initial comment. But since I'm responding, here goes: Building a company I started with a friend. Open 7 months, getting unsolicited offers for investment but we don't need the money (not…

Tried something recently that is very much in this vein. And I almost didn't - but her behavior made it a requirement. Or I would have cut it off. The backstory is a good one but I won't waste your time. I was at a crossroads of either getting her to stop a certain behavior or end up falling into a role I wanted a part in. Which is to connect her with one of my friends. She kept asking. I kept dodging, teasing, making fun of her, telling her she isn't good enough, etc. I finally had to go ultima…

Thanks! It's going to be a wild ride. And not everything is pay. We bend over backwards to create jobs that are just good to work. No such thing as a dedicated person who does one task all day long, etc.

Started and now operate a successful business. Profit maximization is certainly motivation but we are maybe closer to 95% optimized for profits and then choose to lift others with the rising tide. And although it's still early (5 employees, open 6 months), it's pretty obvious that this is the way of the future. Amazing how not only pursuing one objective (oneitis) can lead to an enormous leap in total value creation. If I use an average competitor on our scale, with us being at 95% of our full p…

If this is a real concern for you and I woke up with your brain tomorrow, I might take a P-Break. Works very well with drugs/alcohol (often referred to as a T-Break with marijuana). Not as sure how long it would take for women but 1 month does the trick for receptors relating to other substances. Might be longer in your case. And this would include pursuit of women - not just physical intimacy. Just my 2 cents. Might be worth an experiment. If it's not as much a concern as just a statement then …

My library game is where I do really well - those types of settings where you might sit in a public place to get work done. Here are 2 examples: Starbucks: 2 tables available, both are taken. It's 830PM. I take my coffee and ask to sit at the other end of the table - which is somewhat close quarters but not overly aggressive. Make a stupid intentionally self deprecating joke about needing a lot of space, and if she could please keep the noise down. And then just get to work with headphones in. A…

This isn't the scientific method, as far as precision goes. You don't need 50 failures to know that some things aren't a good idea to do. Example: You open with 4 different employees at various cash registers by talking about the weather. 0 for 4? You don't need to keep digging - just stop talking about the damn weather. Be interesting. And you want to be interesting immediately. Nothing over the top but don't expect to engage only at the tail end of your conversation. You really just want to se…

Look up AB Testing. I took that to an extreme level in high school and very much embarrassed myself to learn the fundamentals of male/female interactions. Basically trying things multiple different ways and slowly developing a feel for my own style. You've inspired me to write a post. Check my account maybe in an hour.

Crippling, suicidal depression goes further than the depth to this post. Not that it's a competition - but the next phase after this is more or less embracing death as if it's already happened. Everything is the equivalent a video game to me now.

It's impossible to be a perpetual state of happiness. At least for me it is. That it is the primary goal for everyone is absurd to me. I think I'd go insane. Good to see that someone (you) had commented this part of OP's post. I came down here to say the same thing. Everyone in my life "projects" onto me their view of the universe. That I'm not living balanced enough. That I don't take enough time for fun. Etc. I started a company with a friend that employs doctors and saves lives. Pretty sure e…

I worked my ass off during college and completely avoided class. My aunt is a life coach (yes the correct response is to roll your eyes) and she told me that I was wasting the best years of my life. That I would look back with regret. She wasn't telling me - she was bitterly yelling in a way. Like I challenged her deep-seated political beliefs by just living life differently. I wasn't telling her that the way I lived was better than her choices at that age. It's been 5 years since that conversat…

Agreed 100%, except that my general playbook is 3 strike policy unless they suggest an alternative time (at that point it isn't a "strike"). After trying 4 times over the course of 2-3 weeks I felt like I was chasing, rather than arranging our next date. And that was in October. I'm spearfishing, contrary to what is taught in TRP. My abundance mentality comes from having a company I built and another I'm working on - I love my life and don't need a girl to be happy. Only reason I say this is I m…

No it seems that was more of a nice + socially acceptable thing to say rather than a "I really want to see you again". We've all been there. This is good to have a self-realization about if nothing else. Not that hot + nice girls exist (obviously they exist) but more that they maybe aren't super rare. Also that you are on stage when you're with them. Must be a strange life to always be stared at.

There's something about watching videos... You take content that is 3-4 minutes to read and make someone listen to you talk for 20 minutes. I'd honestly pay for transcripts to things like this. Appreciate your comment - just voicing some frustration I suppose. Have to wait until clinic ends in 6 hours to be able to watch these.

I disagree. The working definition I have is you get your energy from being around people (extrovert), or you get energy from doing things on your own (introvert). I've been an introvert my entire life, but if you observed my day you'd think the opposite. I spend 10 hours/day in constant contact with employees and customers (I'm building a business). I get home absolutely drained from all the time talking with others, which is different than tired. Converse to that is back in college, when I use…

Deserving something may imply it's being bestowed on you - but that's really the message I was trying to get at. I certainly am not trying to play by their rulebook, more just hoping to understand more of what it might be. There are some good books for this but I rarely see it discussed here. Put simply: If you really desire the $50 mega-flatscreen television, then camp outside Best Buy the night before so you deserve it. The TV isn't choosing you. It's not on a pedestal. I was hoping to maybe g…

Agreed. My intent here mainly was to get you thinking about deserving it, which requires stepping into their world a bit. Given the sheer volume of sexual advances women have from apps, in person, etc. I think it's something like shopping, even if it isn't that exactly. You're right that we don't want to get into the mentality of selling ourselves and not having leverage.

I'll happily declare myself self-actualized. Not that I'm done improving, just that I'm at that stage in life now. I'm a big fan of Maslow's original essay/thesis (as separate from the rudimentary pyramid taught in classrooms), because it delves into how he thought about the whole process of becoming actualized. I'd link here but links usually get deleted. It's titled "A Theory of Human Motivation" and is from 1943. One of the other comments here talks about game vs. life as the two TRP arts. Th…

I run a business that treats heroin addicts. I'm the one who answers the phone - thousands of times by now. This is a group of people who by the very nature of their largest issue in life, will do just about anything to get what they want. Being assertive is everything. Great post.

When I read your number 4, the Ford quote came immediately to mind. Pretty funny to see you have it sitting right there before I got to the next sentence. Academia is really hard to get traction in. Hope you're doing alright with that. I'm in healthcare entrepreneurship, which is really hard too, but for different reasons. Mine is more sure success if you complete thousands of hours of work. Yours is far less certain since its mostly based on government budgets.

I found myself in 2009. Came into my own in early adulthood. I was with many women and was a major leader socially. But it took effort and was exhausting. Ultimately chose work over socializing. It's played out well. Wouldn't change a thing looking back. But it'd be nice if it didn't feel strange to simply be myself. It's not social anxiety, its more like misdirected energy that I don't what to do with.

Beating into submission - easy to manage as a parent, incredibly damaging for a kid. I still have that deep in my soul. I use it for my work in entrepreneurship. Socially I have to fake it - it's like a glove that doesn't properly fit.

If those taught behaviors got us laid we wouldn't be here talking about this. It's a strange situation many of us find ourselves in. Being taught something by females that they do not appreciate. I was very much a machiavellian, naturally aggressive young boy. Angry. Violent even, although it was used to achieve control. That was completely crushed out of me.

My childhood in a nutshell. Such a strange feedback loop. Mother + Grandmother very nice to you, always complimenting how behaved and kind you are. Father pushes you around, you're afraid of him. Grandfather makes fun of you, asks you if you're going to become a priest. This was all pre-16 years old, mostly around 8-13. Edit: I'm the oldest son, of the oldest son, of the oldest son, of the oldest son. First in that line of 4 that isn't anywhere near a natural alpha. Glad to have TRP. I may write…

We can treat HIV and AIDs, can go to the moon and Mars, but people have straight up forgotten how attraction, relationships, and fucking works.

I was with a girl very casually and she had a ride to my house, always (this was in college). I liked the girl but it wasn't serious. And there was this clingy guy that I was wondering about at first. Turns out it was the same person. This guy was taking his princess to and from my house to get laid. Not sure if he knew what he was actually doing. 100% same mentality.

I was miserable working for someone else and keeping similar hours/schedule to what you describe. The world is what you make it. I've been solely focused on self employment since I was in high school. And that lifestyle is all the difference. I keep the same hours to you but I don't have an oppressive force keeping me in line.

Couldn't agree more. I might expand a bit and point out a few subtleties within grit, as it's defined the majority of my adulthood. A pretty obvious aspect to grit is sacrifice. Caving in is not an option and you are facing adversity head on. You are very obviously forgoing short-term benefits for the hope at larger long-term ones (not necessarily with a guarantee). This applied to my life are the countless hours in the library or at my business now, even on weekends and evenings, and sacrificin…

Richard Branson carries around a journal and attributes his success to it. He claims without that habit, he'd not be where he is today. Too much in his life would have been lost without it. I started the practice but I don't carry it everywhere. As life accelerates I fully expect that to change. In the meantime, I also have a whiteboard that is usually full with priorities for our business.

TRP usually doesn't allow direct links, but I came across a great 3-minute video today that is worth the watch. Youtube "Joe Rogan - be your own success story" I'm interested in stoicism as applied to my interpersonal relationships. My life is 95% of what I'd like it to be, that's always the pesky last little bit. But the message you just typed, I think you'd enjoy the video.
