Greetings to all current and aspiring alpha males. Today, I’m going to share with you a significantly influential tactic of self-betterment. Specifically, this is a mental trick. No workout tips, no evolutionary psychology hack, just a simple but powerful change in thought you can implement to help digest the RP.

Be me two months ago. I lift everyday before work, dress well, pursue hobbies and goals, and have a good job. Tall, good looking, the whole shabang. Get with girls when the stars align and my game is having a good night. But far, far from ascending to Chad-like diety status. I swallowed the Red Pill. I noticed the effects. But my liver didn’t completely digest the full medicinal properties of the drug. I struggled with:

  • Motivation
  • Oneitis
  • Imaginary mental conversations/fights
  • Putting myself out there with the other gender

And after a while, I was getting a little fed up. Particularly with Oneitis. So one day, while sitting in my friend’s car after a weekend of fun, I thought to myself:

“I’m having all of these conversations and situations play out in my head that are keeping me in a mental loop of that addicting feeling of living in the mind, and not the body. What if instead of imagining conversations with my peers, potential slays, and Oneitis, why don’t I converse with my ideal self and my role models?”

And that’s when it hit me. In my mind, I began hanging out with the perfect form of myself: calm, confident, successful, and ripped; mentally poised and physically dominant. Every time I began to sink into the alluring mental masturbation sessions of hanging out with my Oneitis and fighting those imaginary fights with other people, the Perfect form of myself would slap me in the face. He would grab me by the shoulders and compassionately yet sternly look me in the eyes and say “OP, remember the end goal. Stay focused.”

The historical, modern, and literary role models of my life would stand behind OP_Perfect and encouragingly nod in agreement, offering advice that would fit their persona. (Side note: daily meditation works magic with this tactic of thinking. I meditate for just ten minutes a day, taking deep breaths with my eyes closed, focusing on nothing but being in a scene of nature with my mental companions. There are tons of meditation guides in this sub).

  • About to Snapchat your Oneitis that slowly let the fling fade?
  • About to munch on an unhealthy snack when you’re aiming for a six pack?
  • About to skip the gym when you know you’ll hate yourself when you look in the mirror later?
  • About to Beta corner yourself in a social situation when that hot single girl over there is begging to be talked to by a confident male?
  • About to make the decision to stay in bed when the world is your motherfucking oyster, spreading its legs to let you slide in and conquer ?

Then make sure your Perfect form chews your ear out, slaps you in the face, compassionately gives you advice, or whatever you find most encouraging whenever you are in that moment of need. Your self-depleting negative thoughts aren’t there for your benefit. They are a hinderance, a nuisance, an obstacle to your end goals. Let your Perfect form empower you to unsheathe the longsword of confidence and self-improvement, and slay that demon.
