When we look at beautiful women, and some genetically gifted men, we might be tempted to think we can never catch up. They start out so far ahead in value when it comes to the sexual market place it's easy to fall into despair. Of course, what makes it feel even more unfair is that a lot of their advantages required absolutely no work at all. After all, no amount of lifting will make you 6"6 with a Bruce Campbell-like chin, or a woman with a perfect face with double D breasts. And yet for all their early bloom, it is inevitable that the vast majority of them will be surpassed by those who had to sweat, suffer, and work for their knowledge and worth.

"Tribulation will lead you to your destiny"

Now why do I say that these people will be surpassed? Obviously, if we're racing and you start 20 ft ahead of me, it is natural to assume you'll have an insurmountable advantage. However, life isn't a straight line from one point to another. It is more like a sadistic obstacle course filled with land mines, traps, scenic route diversions, and bridges that drop off to nowhere. As a red pill, you can see most of these pit falls clearly. For them, however, the blue pill world is cruelest to those it's most kind to. They have no reason to ever wake up and see things for how they actually are. Allow me to outline the effects of this in more specific detail:

1) Most beautiful women have no self-esteem because they've been able to rely on others for validation their entire lives: This is actually similar to what happens to people on hormone therapy. For instance, if you artificially flood your body with testosterone, your body stops making its own. Similarly, most beautiful women have had an overabundance of validation since they were very young. Most people think this is around the 16 year mark, but it actually starts much earlier. Have you seen the way people treat little girls? We are hardwired to be nice to them, and see them not much different as we see little babies. In other words, as precious little bundles of innocence that should be spoiled, taken care of, and protected. This starts their dependence on others for validation very early on. Once they start developing, if they are attractive, then they reach a whole other level of privileged status. All the athletes, all the nerds, and some older men will start romantically pursuing them. This is a double-edged sword because they get incredibly used to always being in a relationship, having a plethora of romantic options, and always measuring their self-worth from how much attention they get from others. At the same time, this also starts an ongoing pattern of cognitive dissonance where their primal needs for sex and satisfaction is always at odds with society and how it views those urges as a bad thing. So they put on the facade of being the pure "girl-next-door" while repressing their inner-slut, which only amplifies it more when she is allowed to cut loose.

How does this work to your advantage? For one thing, self-esteem is called self-esteem for a reason. It can only come from the self. If you are a red pill, there is no doubt that at some point you had to come to a point where you had to reject everything society taught you about relationships and learn to live life for you. Maybe you're even an extreme case like me, where you had many of your close friends betray you, and you had to start over from scratch and had no one to depend on but yourself. When you're all alone, that's when you find your real strength. No one is going to validate you, no one is going to give you your confidence, and you have to find all that fire from within. That's your real advantage. Other people were given their value from birth. You had to earn your value. You had to struggle for it and suffer for it. You will value it far more than they ever will and will fight harder to protect and extend it. Most people born with such advantages cling to their fading genetic gifts long after they hit the wall. They spend their time in the past, and at best they just want to maintain what they had. You are different. You don't want to just maintain - you want to surpass. You want to get better ever day, every month, and every year until one day they look at your lead and feel the same way you looked at them all those years ago. Eventually, you'll be the one to make them ask, "How can I ever catch up?"

2) When everything is given to you because you're attractive, you simply expect good things to happen to you. But what happens when you're no longer attractive? I must repeat my point about the blue pill world being most cruel to those it is kind to. In their conscious mind, naturally attractive women and even some naturally attractive men still believe in fairy-tale romance to some degree. Sure, they still fuck everything and everyone like the most cynical of players would, but they really do think that some day they are going to fall for the perfect person and everything is going to have a fairy tale ending. More than that, they think they deserve it, are entitled to it, and in no way need to improve themselves at all in order to get it. This is a recipe for disaster. After all, what kind of partner can a person be when their entire self worth is predicated upon showing up and being pretty? They learn nothing about compromise, life skills, or how to actually make a relationship work. Why? Because so many people around them constantly lower the bar of acceptable behavior just to keep them around for their beauty. In the end, so many of them learn one skill and one skill only: How to make themselves look more beautiful and limit the damage that aging is doing to their one valuable trait. Subconsciously, they must know that they are completely fucked without their looks and that's partly why they are so insecure about it. Most healthy people derive their value from multiple sources: partly from their skills, partly from their personality, partly from their income, and party from their looks. However, some of these women are entirely in the looks basket. Combine this with the fact that they are completely dependent on others for validation and you can see how quickly this can shape up to be a miserable existence as they age and slowly lose their one valuable trait day by day and year by year.

How does this work to your advantage? You understand the world for what it really is. "True love" and "the one" is luxury you can only afford to keep going as long as your beauty and/or money allows. Let's see how many people are lining up to be your true love when you have $0 in your bank account and your entire face and body is burned worse than Freddy Krueger playing with a pile of faulty Chinese fireworks. The best you can really hope for is deep affection, but calling such affection "true love" as if it's a magic spell that will keep it from ever going away is nothing short of a pipe dream. It's always conditional and always about 50 times more fragile than you'd think it would be. You know what it's like to be ignored, undervalued, and rejected. Some of you have felt it more profoundly than most. Once you've been at the bottom of the food chain and survived it, you know there's absolutely nothing that can break you down. Your core is rock solid. For those who started at the bottom, there's no where for us to go but up. For those who started at the top, there's no where to go but down.

TL;DR: Those who are born with natural advantages are all too often tempted to become complacent. Your true advantage is your knowledge of the world combined with your self-value that was earned through hard work, suffering, and sacrifice.
