Who Do You Bow To?

NOT BITCHES, YOU ARE THE PRIZE.

Just kidding, in this post I won't be focusing on bitches. (steviewonderforonceinmylife.mp3)

I see a lot of posts on here like "If you don't have the body, she will never respect you as much as the jacked Chad" or "She'll leave you for the guy who's with the big group of girls" or "Don't focus on her, get money".

While I'm all for getting jacked, hanging out with lots of girls and getting money, it's important that we make sure not to fuck ourselves with our 3 inch mentalities.

Note that when you say, "I'm better than that guy because I am stronger, smoother, and richer.", you are implicitly saying a lot of guys are better than you. There's always a stronger bro, always a richer fuck. So then you run into them and you either have a cognitive dissonance, or you acknowledge your inferiority in their presence, and bow.

Both are pretty BITCH moves!!

Some of you are saying, "There's nothing wrong with accepting inferiority as long as you're getting better."

Well that might be true if you're talking about shooting basketballs, but when you're talking about your value as a man, it's different. There's nothing wrong with being dissatisfied with your shooting percentage forever. The greatest were. But obviously, if the goal is satisfaction, we can't carry over that kind of attitude to being a man.

So what's the solution? "Everyone is equal." Just plain horseshit.

Of course there is inequality, there are many inequalities. You're always gonna be poorer, shorter, fatter, uglier than somebody. So what you do is define yourself by something a little more meaningful.

I saw an interview with Chris Rock where he talks about being in a room with Jay-Z, Kobe Bryant, and other successful people from different fields. He talked about being able to sit down with these guys and say, "In my game, I really killed it. I really ran that shit."

In that room, all were equals. Sure, Jay-Z may have a couple hundred million on Chris Rock, but Chris Rock, and Jay-Z for that matter, never defined themselves by money. They defined themselves by dominance of their game, be it rap or comedy.

That's what being a man is, finding out what inequalities you care about and handling that shit. The standard by which I measure myself and others against is self-fulfillment. The good thing about this is that it is reachable.

You can become as fulfilled as any other man. It's 1 in 8 billion you'll be as rich. I go out and I see much richer men who are much lower than me. You can sense that they are not comfortable with themselves, so all that money just makes it more sad. It's been my development to see that, and not go, "Well I'm way more jacked than that guy, he probably needs money to get it."

Every name is equal on a trophy. People forget who scored the winning touchdown, who made the big stop. All that remains is the names of the ones who came out on top in the end.

I swear some of the people on here are basically the male equivalents of the vapid sluts they hate so much. I see them shitting on people more successful than them, only caring about their SMV, and dangling relationships in front of plates like girls dangle pussy in front of "friends". People call these guys dicks, and they are, but their actions are the result of insecurity, not any inherent character flaws.

So go fulfill yourself by your standard, and when they ask you again, "Who do you bow to?", you can say, "No one."
