Introduction A brief introduction to who I am - Returning College Student, Music Producer, Music Composer, Motorcyclist and a Magician in training. Lots of Ms. 5'0" on a bad day, 5'1" on a Good day. I like to think Kevin Hart and I are related. We're short, we're black, we're both comedians. Well... he's a stand up comedian. I'm not funny enough for that as such just settled to be a sit down comic. Who I am isn't the point of this post.

The point of this post is to outline some of the things I have observed and learned since lurking for the past few months. Kept track of progress in a journal as someone recommended. Some of these things, if not most, are in the side bar reading as I've noticed. However, witnessing object reality echo the principles and theories taught and discussed on this forum was what really drove everything home for me. It's one thing to read, learn and attempt to apply. It's a whole 'nother thing witnessing everything I've been reading come to fruition before my own eyes.

Lesson 1; When in Doubt, Lift.

One of my closest friends told me a story the other day that really struck a chord with me. We both went / go to the same college. I must have missed out on a lot of the college experience for no crazy stories of lust or romance or partying will come from me. However, "there was this guy" was how her story started. The guy had a girlfriend, cheated on his girlfriend with my friend and had no observable penalty. Sparing the details of the story, asked her why she went along with all of the making out, etc. The answer verbatim "Honestly, he had muscles. Really couldn't resist. It was that God damn Juju."

In that moment, Wolffy realized beyond a shadow of a doubt how important looks and how you carry yourself are should you want to hook up. Baffled, most definitely. Shocked, most definitely. Was the veil to more of The Red Pill principles becoming more and more undone, in real time, before my eyes - Without a doubt.

Been using my dad's at home workout station for the past 2 months or so. Been seeing some results. Feel a bit stronger. But haven't been 100% committed to a 5 day a week workout routine. Acquired 6PackShortcuts from a friend 3 weeks ago and have been following it since. My diet is being cleaned up. Soda is only allowed on the weekends with the goal of eventually having no desire or craving for it. I knew through reading and lurking the importance and benefits of working out. Just my world was flipped through this lesson. Perhaps I am determined for the Wrong reasons at the moment; To improve my chances of getting laid, I will commit 110% to my workout routine. The reason will eventually evolve into something I'm doing solely for my own enjoyment and not for a desired result.

Lesson 2; Everything You Touch Should Turn To Gold

Financial struggle. Ever since being home from College - leaving my really well (for me) paying job as a Bike Courier in College Town Boston and coming home to no job besides a part-time minimum wage stylist at Levi's, Money has been at the forefront of my mind. Read Rich Dad Poor Dad, How To Win Friends and Influence People, Music Money and Success, Habits of Highly Successful People etc. Religiously watch videos, TED Talks, TEDxTalks, on entrepreneurship , how to create passive income, assets what they are and why they're important. This is close to obsession with getting out of the 9-to-5, learning about financial literacy, etc. Friends think I'm crazy. Can't say I blame them.

All this being said... as much shit as Tai Lopez gets, one thing he said really stuck. Everything you touch should turn to Gold. Took from that - Aim To Be Better Than Expected In All Your Interactions. That should be the goal. I and you will fall short of that goal sometimes but if that is the goal, we are simply falling into Good instead of being Great.

In terms of business, I have a grasp of that concept In terms of interactions with women but not limited to just women, I am seeing with my own eyes things unfolding in positive ways for those who adopt this mentality.

But it's not just that. While talking with my dad, a few girls, and a couple of my friends who are In Fact successful with women, I've picked up something that is rarely talked about - How do guys who are Not average improve? Yes, you use what is meant for the average guy as a guideline. However, if a guy is like me, 5 foot nothing, the average-guy-oriented principles do not apply to him in the same way as it would apply to a "Short" guy of 5'6". I would trade many things for 6 extra inches of height. Over the past 2 months of journaling I have realized in terms of dating, but even in terms of Job Interviews, meeting professional people, etc, as a short guy who does not (yet) command the same Presence of other successful short people, I have no room to be Average. The luxury of being average does not apply to us shorties. Yes, height is only an issue if you Make it an issue however that is not what I am hoping to do with this lesson as it has applications anyone can take and benefit from.

That being said - I have observed in my own interactions things I'm doing good, things I need to work on, and things I just simply have no control over. The largest thing I have control over is aiming for all of my interactions to be a little bit better than expected. People do not remember Ok movies, Ok music, or Ok people. They remember Great and Bad. Aim to be Great. If you miss, you'll land in Good (hopefully)

Lesson 3; Acquire Abundance. Your Mind Must Arrive At The Destination Before Your Body

This was perhaps the hardest lesson to understand. For the past 2 months now, I have been in the mentality of Loss -

I have not a girlfriend. I have not success I have not the height I have not the body I want I have not the money I have not

That mentality is toxic, horrible and bad. Although each and everyone of these thoughts may very well be True, one is thinking them more and more into reality with each negative thought. If this is one's mindset, the universe will Answer it and Reflect Exactly what you lack right back unto you. I have witnessed this both in the negative and in the positive. It drains oneself of energy they can be using towards productive activities such as building a music website, working on beats, practicing sleight of hand, reading up on finance, hitting the gym, etc.

Lesson 4; Stop Wasting Time With Online Dating Apps - Become Someone You Are Genuinely Proud Of First

One of my closest friends told me the other day to stop wasting time with these online dating apps until you have something worth being proud of. Took me a little off guard however it makes sense to me now. Yes, the validation of flirting with girls at the mall after work and online dating apps was definitely an ego-booster after a breakup. However, if I'm looking at this from a market standpoint - I don't have a product worth buying right now. What happens to products not worth buying on the market? They get ignored. More often than not, I would have my messages ignored. Would get a lot of replies though. That being said, I understand now the value of working on oneself in silence and creating a version of theirselves that they are proud of. Dating, etc., all of that should be secondary to acquiring the life and success you want. I had it a little bit backwards admittedly.

Lesson 5; What Is Your Why? What are you investing, or wasting, your time on?

Just saw Rogue One and Collateral Beauty Both good movies would watch Rogue One again, would pass on Collateral Beauty. See it on your own at home or sneak into it before or after seeing Rogue One.

I have noticed in myself and others one very important thing - Not only do you need to love whatever it is you do. You need to have a Why. You need to have something you Believe in that Pulls you out of bed in the morning when you want that extra hour of sleep. You need to have something you Believe in that Pulls you out of bed in the middle of winter when it's fucking freezing and your bed is nicer. Whatever that belief is, you need to have it.

This concept I didn't really understand. Always thought Hard Work, Motivation, Grind Or Die, were the mottos every successful person lives by and preach. However... each and every successful person I've emailed, know personally and / or otherwise watched a video on... they all have something they almost Obsessively Believe in that is Theirs. They have a Why.

I see this with myself and others; Your motivation will fail you eventually if you do not have discipline, if you do not have something pulling you into action. Personally don't care What your "Why" is so long as you have something that works for you.

I can't think off the top of my head at 6 am what other lessons I have learned thus far. These are a few that really resonated profoundly with me.

I hope I could accomplish the goal of giving insight into where I am with the RedPill journey / path. Any advice / feedback / insults / tearing down of character is welcomed Hopefully I could help at least someone struggling this morning _^
