27m , looking for motivation

Approving because the question is general enough to provide actionable advice to the community as a whole for motivational sources and somewhat or outright actionable advice generally

The first stage is separating yourself from the people, places, circumstances and habits that sabotage your progress.

The next is investing in yourself to build yourself up, your career, your ambitions, goals, cemented by routine and practices.

The third is complete freedom and independence, which few reach, in all areas of your life.

The final is giving back, to your family if you choose to make one, your community, and some cause greater than yourself. In whatever capacity is appropriate.

Real, self actualized men are leaders. They give generously, time, energy, resources, towards causes and initiatives that are first mutually beneficial, but eventually, to those that lift others, empower others, shape society, its structures, and humanity at large.

We have talked about freedom and wealth, but power, and influence, is the final stage. But you can’t get there without self-mastery first, which is the primary focus of this sub.

26M

First off, the people on here aren't the same people that were on during 2017. The red pill used to show men how to build themselves up and shown them how to grow as men. Today, most get way to hung up on women not knowing that shit comes after you get your life together.

Maybe I'm jaded but, I remember posting how well I was doing with my girl being a ex cheerleader and all ,but you just get brought down by the redditors here. I was literally called a liar and people started assuming my story was fabricated and attacked my relationship.

I feel most people on here haven't figured their lives out yet and are purposely misleading other men. Personally, don't expect much accomplishments out of the post ban group here.

I've moved on to post redpill content outside of this black pill echo chamber because of this. IE: my latest post on my profile and suddenly what I preach ends up super useful to men and women for dating advice.

26M, started at 23

Its taught me about masculinity and about female nature. I used to be a red pill rage guy and it worked since it fueled 6 months of gym motivation, but since then I've built my own systems and protocols so i can rely more on discipline and less on motivation

widowed, had a stepford wife, coming up on 8 years since she's been gone.

to me RP is like Machismo (the way i grew up minus family)

goal now is having enough assets to live off of AND buy any/all toys I want. i could retire now at 45, but I'd have to budget for trips, toys etc.

even with inflation, I'm comfortable, but realize I could do better. so thanks for the reminder, don't settle/be comfortable

Since getting here over a decade ago, I've accomplished fuck all. Had two shit jobs, currently unemployed. I go gym on and off but struggle with sticking to it because I just have no motivation for it. Same for anything else. If anything, this place let me see the world for what it is, and I've had no interest in it since.

I wrote a whole ass 1500 word essay to make myself realise how good my life actually is, with a lot of good parts still left out, and some bad. Didn't realise there was a limit on comment length otherwise I was gonna send it.

TL;DR, 20M got a girl interested in having sex with me online (knew each other offline before) when I was 18 screwed it up by waiting too long, took the pill at 16, thought I wouldn't have sex since the country is conservative, just realised it only meant the difficulty curve is steeper.

Got into a top college in my country into an engineering program because apparently I wasn't performing up to my potential and I could've gotten even better, after trying too hard for too long for my life, I waste a year doing nothing and ended up worse off than last year. I'm only better in the sense that I managed to get to 2nd base with a girl but ruined it with desperation, and obviously non perfect game.

Learnt a lot about my work ethic, how I shouldn't compare myself, standing up even more to my abusive father (I'm actually eager to beat the crap out of him, 2 kicks to the chest were not enough, I think we'll never meet though). I think I got over the trauma hindering my spirit. Read some more books like the War of Art and decided that I want to pursue math, no matter if the hurdles because I chose another program. Currently working hard on that, or at least trying to, with the goal of getting admitted abroad, probably want to do a PhD eventually

Quite fit, trying to get better at TKD, mostly stamina's the issue since I'm 80kg at 5'9 and heat up easily, speed and strength aren't though.

I feel most people on here haven't figured their lives out yet or should really just move on to black pill. Personally, don't expect much accomplishments out of the new generation here.

21m I found this place at 14. Mid girl I was interested in didn't want me and I recently heard about The Game. It was posted in a sister subreddit which led me to this one. I was very lost so discovering the manosphere really set things straight. It took a really long time for things to click. I had to do a lot of approaching and talk to a variety of people for social dynamics to set in. As you can imagine reading is no substitute for experience, but all the literature multiplied my growth undoubtedly. TRP is a really good guide for filtering out the noise, which there is a lot, even in the sub. My only advice is work on your style and frame. You need to stand out by creating value and not consuming it. Focus on inner game too.
