From the book (on dealing with addictions such as porn, society, and women)

So have you picked a battle? Are you ready to give up on your addiction? Ready to function without that chemical? Ready to say goodbye to porn? Or is it something else that is destroying you? Will you let the inner-beta rule? Will you shun pain and retreat into comfort and pleasure? Or will you destroy these pleasures and become the killer that you were meant to be? Once you have chosen your target enemy, in the form of addiction, then you are ready to start learning about PAIN and Self-Control: the twin blade of the killer. Addictions are particularly deadly in that there is a chemical process that had manipulated your body’s machinery so that you get a physical effect. These are called “withdrawals” or known as “cravings.” Pay attention to how you react to these changes. Observe pain. Pain is your teacher in the path. What is pain? Pain is the price we pay to become stronger. It is the opposite of pleasure. Pleasure and pain is oil in water. To choose pain over pleasure is to choose growth. Pain lines the path that leads to growth.

What is a fight if we do not feel pain? The pain that you feel in intense withdrawal is weakness leaving the body. Pain is also the price of success. You want to be free? Then you must pay the price in pain.

How about Self-Control? The pain that you feel from not getting what you want… is despair. That is what it feels like when every cell in your body wants something but is DENIED. Self- control is all about denial. Self-control is to deny the inner-beta the oxygen it needs to survive. The denial of oxygen causes the beta to asphyxiate. The beta will cry to live and beg for mercy: pleasure is what it wants, and pleasure is exactly what you deny. Use the killer in you to release the beta from his suffering. By choosing self-control instead of pleasure you step into pain – the path to growth. The “cravings” of pleasure also teaches you something else about success. When you need something so bad, like success and freedom, your whole body and being must feel a craving from not having it. Upon realizing it, reflect on what you truly want: maybe freedom is the piece that is missing in your life, without it you live a life of despair.

How do you deal with pain? You deal with pain by standing firm. The beta shirks from pain. He is like a child. Pain is what kills the inner-beta. The inner-beta cannot take pain. The challenge is too big for the inner-bets so he succumbs to it! On the other hand, the masculine force of the killer is firm and unyielding. Do not bitch ever as it doesn’t help. You stand your ground and take the pain that your withdrawing body will give you. Ability to endure pain is what makes us masculine. Pain seeks to move so learn to understand the nature of pain to become unmovable. Is there a mental aspect to it? Now if you bring your mind into the equation of fighting a dependency what you will find is that there are two minds. The first brain is the brain that is addicted hijacked brain and the second brain is the brain that is not addicted and more rational. These two brains are fighting. Similar to how you are fighting two sides of you. The essence of inner-battles. How do you make it so that you make sure that the right brain is winning? The trick is to start identifying with the correct brain. Same as you identify with the killer. Who do you want to be the beta or killer? Only one will win. When will you be free? You will only be free of an addiction when you have changed your identity completely that you are basically another person. That is the light in the path. The light

only comes when the inner-beta is beat. The difficult nature of the addiction makes sure you that you change. You MUST become this killer to survive. You will need this living in the fringe, when you work on the freedom project. The odds are so slim that you must become that person that survives in order to make it. This is what it takes to earn your freedom. It is difficult journey that needs you to become an entirely different person.

​

You are literally a nothing until you make it. Can you handle people seeing you as a loser for a long time until you make it? Can you handle failure? Can you handle isolation? Can you handle psychological cravings? Can you face stress instead of succumbing to pleasure? Will pain break you? Will you whine? Will you learn not to give up? Will your mind trick you? Will the path break you? I hope it doesn’t. Start with the inner-battle first then build on. Congratulations. You are ready for the next mission.

​

At this point, I cannot go back. I have tasted the apple of freedom and I want my own tree. The world of the 9-5 seems far behind. The world of consumerism, of false pretensions, of ladies in martinis smiling as they evaluate your provider potential, and stupid fear mongering news anchors seems like a memory from a time far away. What exists now are these words that are born straight from the soul and a deadline that ominously hangs in the wall. This book will done shortly and the site, and the articles, and the summation of the sigma project. Success or failure everything will be done and it will be one more thing I can smile about. Was entering the path worth it? All I can say is that I will leave my death bed a far happier man than without entering this path. Yes.
