Does struggle make you happier?

It's about a sense of pride in earning and achieving, while I dont see the same level of this behavior from all women in my life (I actually see alot of guys showing similar behavior in terms of having everything and being miserable). I believe it is because they've never earned a bit of it and that is one of the greater joys in life

Perfect real life example.

I was a tag-along for a Jeep club. Awesome guys.

One day a guy had his Jeep break down.

So the club decends upon his Jeep.

“Hey I know what when wrong, (something) broke and you need to do (this) and you’ll be outta here in about three hours!

“Uh, I don’t know how to do that”

“Huh? But, didn’t you build this rig? Should be easy!”

“I didn’t, I bought it”

Long story short, the club helped him out. And tried to teach him some basic “trail repairs”

But the guy wouldn’t listen, and eventually sold his Jeep, and never came back.

.

Folks, there is a big difference between someone who built something, and someone who bought it. The experience, the skills learned, the struggle is what matters. Always has.

That is why, in my opinion, rich people and women are so miserable.

If you never earned anything, learned anything, gained skills, or struggled with anything. You are nothing. And deep down- they know it.

Struggle, pain and sacrifice is growth. When you always have pleasure short term you are actually standing still. Self actualisation is the highest possible achievement in a man's life.

True peace and happiness comes from balance in one's life

Something given has no value. Women are given everything therefore they do not value it and they know deep down they don’t deserve it => unhappy. They then try to chase happiness with the next dick, bottle, etc and spin farther out of control.

When somebody(man or woman) struggles it becomes apparent very quickly that you have to work hard and earn everything that you will acquire. When you pay your own way in life it's like having a little trophy each time you pay for something yourself. You know all of the work that went into getting that new computer, stereo system, or car. Hence, you are happier because you earned it. The women that you've described above can never have this sense of satisfaction. Everything they—the women mentioned above—have has been earned by somebody else(parents, boyfriend, friend-zoned dude of whom they take advantage), and then just given to them. Their sense of value is all messed up and distorted.

There is the will to power and nothing else.

There is a key difference. Being reliable and being hopelessly dependent on others. If you have it hard but can manage, you can be okay. But if you depend on others, you lose your shit because you need that resource. You don't adapt. You don't plan for your future. You basically throw in the towel and need to be carried by others.

This is no different than people who want to be carried by the government getting mad when their "free money" is threatened. The issue with women is that they fuck around and have a good time. Once they realize they need a bail out, they dump their issues on men. They need the bail out and refuse to solve the problem themselves. This is seen in /r/WhereAreAllTheGoodMen and the posts about how women should be treated, what they deserve, what they are entitled to, why they shame men, why they throw a fit when the relationship doesn't work out. Why divorce costs so much for men. They need the bail out and know that. Hence why they are bitter, smoke/drink, monkey branch, etc.

The worse off their life is and the higher standard of living they desire, the worse they become.
