If u have ever seen a hamster move around or function, u can notice certain things, it moves around not knowing what to do, avoiding any suspicious thing that seems like a risk.

Here in TRP, we talk about the female hamster but lets talk about the male hamster.

There is a popular advice to follow your heart/dreams/inner voice.

Lets see the power of this inner voice.

Even if you are the fastest man on earth like Usain Bolt, thinking you might fail, leads you to a false start.

Even if you know you are the best guy that ex oneitis could get, you being anxious of rejection leads you to get rejected.

When you wake up in the morning but do not get out of bed, you are following the hamster.

Hamstering is just following the easy safe path. It is an aversion to risk. And trying to give it a reason.

When you propose a girl, based on her mood, if the initial thought was yes or no, it gets amplified. And your future depends on it.

Imagine an ugly girl comes in front of you and tells you she wants to fuck you, your reaction will be to say NO immediately, we may say men are rational, women are emotional, but logically speaking, why would you reject a free lay?

This is the reason why girls reject you if you straight up ask them wanna fuck? its too much of a risk. Depending on your reaction, the initial opinion may get amplified or diminished. If you act butthurt or angry or beta, it gets amplified, if you don't care, you might get a lay even from this turning the initial rejection around. Game is just smoothing out their hamsters for them. That's why its called playing smooth.

If you are about to ask out a girl, you are not risking rejection/failure, you are risking success. Your job is to just shoot a 100 arrows, and see how many hit the target, maybe 1, maybe none.

True mastery is not 'hearing your inner voice', true mastery is taking an action/risk in spite of that inner voice. It is not proving other people who says you cant do something wrong, its proving your own inner voice that it is wrong by taking action. Conquering your own self, you can conquer the world.

  • You used to be scared of the dark, then you grew up, you went alone in the dark once, nothing happened, hamster is destroyed.
  • You used to be scared of the dogs, but one day you faced your fears, nothing happened, hamster is destroyed.
  • You are scared to apply for a job, you did it anyway, hamster is destroyed.
  • You are scared to go to the gym as you haven't gone there even once, one day you went, hamster is destroyed.

You can either hear the hamster and rationalize you not going to the gym as your local gym is a bit far, inconvenient, etc and give other bullshit reason or just go to the gym. You can either hit on that girl or justify not hitting, by you saying you haven't finished reading Models book, or you haven't got a six pack or a 6 figure salary.

Meditation can help conquer that inner voice. Imagine a world without speech, of no inner voice at all, an animal world, you saw that hot chick, you go and grab her pussy, that is the world of action.

Make your actions second nature, like walking or breathing or taking a shit. Do you feel anxious?

Even if a public toilet is not clean, you pee anyway coz you have to. That is the path of success.

Take action not because you want to or don't want to, take it because you have to
