10 Things I wish I knew about life(Wealth/Health/Relationships) before I turned 25(Practical Guide for Young men)

Hey guys,

Since we are going to start with the new series like, "Telling people to fuck off," "Hot girls chronicles" and "Promoter Game." I thought I'd share these practical tips with most of you since I wish someone would have shared them with me. Maybe, you are reading this in 2040 or even in the year 3000! Lol, it doesn't matter. As long as the human species remains more or less the same principles apply.

I'll try to be as practical as possible since most of the advice out there is both watered down and theoretical:

1-You approach towards life should be optimistic and it's everything is not a big deal

This is a combination of my father's teachings and Mystery. If you are always optimistic you'll see good things around you. Meanwhile, if you are pessimistic you'll always see the glass half empty. Even if you have everything you wish for, you will never be satisfied. For instance, we see how Roosh acquires fame, extra money, and knowledge and he was still unhappy with his life. In terms of everything not being 'big deal' is because if you don't get upset when people bring you down you can easily continue fostering relationships/friendship. For instance, if a girl cancels on you, you can always reschedule.

2-Most of the mainstream media, online advice, and 'expert' advice is targeted towards the lowest common denominator

Unfortunately, most advice you'll run in movies, television, newspapers, online opinion pieces are of very poor quality. Most of the writers are trying to target the lowest common denominator. Therefore, the writers' opinions will not only be biased but it will also mischaracterize ideas and concepts. For instance, we see how the media 'demonizes' pick up and calls every practicer a public menace. Moreover, we always see that their advice is for someone who is overweight, a virgin, lives with his parents, lacks courage and ambition. This advice is not for most of you.

3- Life experience is KING!

Most likely whatever you read online, watch on television, or hear from some expert or is going to have a 'spin' or an 'agenda' behind it. For instance, they are trying to 'dumb down' information from you in the hopes that you will buy their product, especially, when it comes to dating. Moreover, don't trust what many of the '

4-Academic Journals(are one of the BEST ways to learn about ANY topic)

For 90% of topics out there this the solution to the questions that you have. Most of the time, if you read books they could be outdated or cause you information overload. In contrast, academic journals are constantly being uploaded. While there are limitations to academic knowledge. For instance, they have a "liberal bias" for the most part they will try to remain unbiased. Moreover, you can compare the different opinions of experts to determine what's the best conclusion. Some good academic journals to consult are JSTOR and Google Scholar.

5-Lifting Weights will get you STRONG is the only TRAINING AND SPORT you will EVER need(there's no need to practice team sports, go swimming, do cardio..etc)

Now that I'm lifting weights every day, I wish I've known about this. I assumed that most people got in shape by playing a lot of team sports. Therefore, I signed up for soccer, tennis or even basketball growing up. I simply assumed that once you played a lot you will eventually see results. Unfortunately, I didn't lift weights since my mom said, "Lifting weights will turn you into a midget." Far from it, all the hysteria of society was both ignorant and bullshit. The real reason lifting weights isn't as popular as cardio is because women don't like lifting weights and feel self-consciousness about it(facepalm) since they incorrectly believe that it will make them bulky.

6-Cold Approach builds a 'thick skin" but in terms of results other forms of the game with better lead sources are far superior

Most of them are travelers like Bradicus or Tom Torero who are only in a given city for three days. Therefore, one of the best ways to make money is to charge for students for a three-day program at a low-end bar on the weekend. Due to financial reasons and because it's easy for the student to take these programs. However, the results are lackluster at best. In order, to truly succeed it's much better to get the nightclub on industry nights like Wednesdays or Sundays and cut straight to the VIP table by befriending promoter. Again most of this stuff is not taught since most of the students are reluctant to take programs during the week since the have their 9 to 5 to attend too. However, I'm confident that days and times matter.

7-'Take it or Leave it" should be your approach in ALL your friendships and relationships

Share value to others and ask them to join you, if they accept you have genuine friends if they don't, tell them to fuck off. Most likely they are losers anyway. Don't waste your time trying to be friends with people who don't want to be your friends. No matter if how much value they have(Even if they are the richest or most well-connected person in the world). By the same token, don't waste your time idealizing or fawning after any girl. No matter how attractive she might be. There are hundreds of girls just as hot. Respect and prioritize yourself!

8-90% of the time you should be the one adding value to people's lives

This another HUGE! A mistake I made when I was growing up. I assumed that people were trying to "USE ME." Since that what my family, friends, and society had taught. On the other hand, I realized that "sharing" with others is actually one of the best things you can do. If you are always adding value to any relationship you are part of you don't have to guess if people like you or not, they always will. In fact, there will be a point where most people around you become, "Yes men" and will always try to cater to you.

9-You don't need to travel to live a location independent lifestyle

If you follow Roosh, Kyle and International Playboy...etc. You are lead to believe that the only way to live a location independent lifestyle is by traveling FALSE! You can do it from the comfort of your city or an inexpensive city of your choice. Your QUALITY of LIFE will be higher if instead of crashing on couches the girls are the ones crashing on your couch.

10-If you like this post don't forget to follow us at r/Crimsonpill The last one is DON'T believe a lot of marketing around you and will use Critical Thinking for EVERYTHING. For instance, people hype Las Vegas as the best place to get girls yet they never talk about Salt Lake City. I went to Las Vegas and found everything overpriced, all the girls there were busted MILFS or Fresh off the boat minority girls who did not speak English well. The clubs are packed with people spending a lot of money for little returns and tons of guys competing for average chicks.

Meanwhile, just a 4-hour drive from there you have Salt Lake City where nobody would go there to party. I went to an 18+ club in Salt Lake City and was the HOTTEST GIRLS I've ever seen in my life. Most of the were blond, tanned and slim straight out of their high school graduation. Moreover, most of my competition where prepubescent boys who had ZERO games. It only cost $15 to get in. I wish I was making this up but I'm not, it was truly in a "pussy paradise."
