I’ve returned from being OCONUS for the past 2 weeks and my brain has gotten over the ‘fog’ that comes with gaining/losing 8 hours. For those who didn't know u/TrainingTheBrain is dead, forever -- I killed it in an effort to keep my message and ‘brand’ consistent.

I created a Q & A Page that I used to capture a few of my comments from TTB as was requested here. There was way too much so I picked a few of the ones I found worthy of repeating. I have commented a few times here and there when I had internet, I have been observing our forum and have been pretty impressed with the quality of posts and comments that have been trending.

I think that there is a direct connection between the quality of our sub and the honesty that is provided. Too often the main sub falls victim to the ‘group think’ logic whereas here we have disagreements all the time. This is a beautiful thing as it shows that we are all, even on the forum – walking our own path. I may recommend that OP actually talk to his wife where Whinemore may say to suck it the fuck up and Jackten may write 5,000 words about what came before and will come after said event.

Regardless of who is ‘right’ the point stands that men are providing advice they support. It is pathetic but it is rare for men to confront anyone on anything. Most are scared of being an ‘oppressor’; maybe MRP is the way it is because we are online, which is an issue I’m finding a way to deal with – but I’m hoping that this isn’t the case. I’m hoping the men here are embracing their masculine nature and the men who are providing shitty advice are taking their internet ass kicking and learning from it.

Something I observed while overseas is that masculinity knows no borders. You know what happens to a girl when you look her in the eyes and just smile in Germany, Bahrain, Qatar, Chicago, Canada, Italy, or dubai - They fucking smile back. You know what happens when you walk tall, speak confidently, and kino? They reciprocate – even if they don’t speak your fucking language.

I was gaming foreign women with the sole purpose of seeing if it worked. I would smile and use hand gestures, hold a chicks hand to draw a picture - whatever the fuck I wanted. Why did this work? Because I look strong yet approachable, these weren’t just stewardesses whose job was to be my friend. These were people I worked with, girls are restaurants, people selling shit on the street (not a good example, they are friendly to everyone), and most importantly other people at the airport who were traveling. I found myself sitting in some Gold Member lounges, drinking Chivas Regal talking to people about whatever. These are experiences that can be had by any man out there if he is willing to put in the work prior to this event.

You have to lift now, so you can reap the benefits later. You have to learn your game and kino now, so when you are on vacation you can drop the moves, you have to feel confident now so that when you are in sticky circumstances you can call on that irrational self-belief to pull yourself out of the situation.

Women know when they are in the presence of a masculine man and when they are in the presence of all other men. Be the masculine man, be the guy who is happy with life, owning each moment, and just fucking able to perform all the jobs required of masculine men.

It’s good to be back in the states, I will be transcribing all of the notes and posts I wrote in my journal to the site in the coming days.
