Bald Mode = Beast Mode

Many guys have hit me up in the past, trying to learn the subtle art of not giving a fuck. They value the opinions of others too much to the point of being stifled. To these men, I always propose the same advice. I tell them to shave their hair and embrace the bald.

As expected, after giving this advice I get bombarded with excuses. Many guys ask if I have lost my fucking mind. However, there is a method to this madness. Shaving your head bald draws attention. People will notice your lack of hair, and of course make comments. The usual comments you would expect to receive are;

“I liked your hair before, why did you shave it!”

“Brah you look like a fucking egghead”

“why would you do that to yourself, you look ugly”

The comments and stares will be relentless, but this is what we want. You are jumping into the deep end and learning to not give a single fuck about anyone’s opinion. At first, it will be hard, but with time you will be hardened.

Personally, I have gone bald numerous times (as shown in the video), and I love it. I love it when people comment on my hair and expect me to give a shit. At this stage of my life, people’s opinions don’t faze me. Watching them attempt to provoke a reaction from me, is the greatest humour.

The Ego Benefit

Shaving your head bald also helps you understand ego. So many of us create ego identifications with various things that are extrinsic of us;

  • our cars

  • our houses

  • our shoes

  • our jobs

  • our education

And of course our hair… Being able to remove your hair, and not give a shit, is a step outside this lower level paradigm.

If you can’t part with your own hair, what’s going to happen to you when you lose something else that you have created a stronger identification with? What will happen when you lose your health or your wealth? I am not the first person to suggest this type of measure.

The Roman Stoic philosopher Seneca ( the big homie), would often partake in ‘voluntary discomfort’. Seneca was said to be one of the wealthiest men in Rome at the time. He would periodically live life as the poor and sleep on the streets. Why would he do this? Because he didn’t give a fuck!

Now you can try this out if you want, or not. I have done it in the past, and will most likely do it again in the future to strengthen the ‘givenofuckceps’.
