I've been on TRP for a few months now and I just couldn't stop wondering why most people just don't take action. It's not just on TRP... shit, I've seen this idleness and mental masturbation in SO many other people online and in real life.

First example

I currently have a sales job at a F500 company and everyday my managers are bombarding my coworkers and I with motivational shit to hype us up. They keep telling to keep making calls, to destroy objections and close deals. After one of these ''hype'' meetings, bunch of my coworkers get hyped up, say to me ''BRO, I'll make 100 calls a day GUARANTEED, I'll hustle my face off''. 3 weeks later, they call like 25 people a day... BUT they still have the impression that they're working their ass off and are being that ''hustle'' guy they said they would be. wtf?

Second example

Joined the gym a few months ago with a buddy of mine. I mean, this guy posts daily shit on motivation on social media. ''Never Give Up!', ''Yesterday you said tomorrow'', ''Delay Gratification is the foundation to success''. For the first month or so, he came with me to gym 4-5x a week. After that, excuses started coming in and after a while, he just stopped coming... BUT he keeps on posting motivational shit online? Why are you not following your own advice? wtf?

Third example

So a few months ago, I'm hanging at the bar with 2 of my introverted friends that I haven't see in a long time. The first thing they say to me after I get a girl's number is ''Dude, you changed so much. How are you so outgoing haha? You gotta teach me man''. So I tell them what I did: 1) Get a sales job 2) Get gud 3) Use sales skills to pick up chicks. They say to me they'll do it... Yesterday, one of them, after they see a girl on my snap story, messages me and asks me what my ''secret'' is. wtf?

Fourth example

So I mainly hang out online in the money obsessed side of twitter, a lot of the people used to hang on TRP. So I'm looking through my timeline and I see this ''Make Women Great Again'' being mocked by a few dudes. This guy named Anthony Johnson or something is the one responsible for this MWGA. His FUCKING handle is @ beachmuscles, but he looks DYEL? All the people that were at the conference, except for a few, are DYEL, but yet they preach lifting? wtf?

Thinking that this was more of a modern problem, I got curious and I read books (ex. Book of Five Rings) on people in the past... and most motherfuckers were LARPing too.

What is the cause of this bug in humans? Like shit, there's no ''secret'', especially these days with the Internet. If you keep it fucking simple and stick with it you'll succeed. It can't just be laziness or lack of discipline, there has to be some psychological phenomenon, dissonance of some kind. For the 5% of people who *actually* take massive action, there's no competition.

TL;DR: What is the reason behind all the lack of action of most people? It's so simple to live a better life... but most won't do it? Like, I REALLY want to know the psychological reason.
