Long ago, when I first created man, your ancestors went day after day, risking their lives just
to survive.
Hunting for food, battling rival tribes,, escaping from beasts and the elements.
Slowly but surely, they evolved.
Discovering civilization, medicine, machinery, and even fighting off evil, all to improve
the quality of life.
Fast forward to the present and - “Dude seriously?
Your attention span is that short you already had to click off the video and now you’re
opening up porn in another tab.
It’s the middle of the afternoon!
And Jesus you didn’t even open up an incognito tab.
Have some respect.”
Fast forward to the present.
Man spends his day lying in bed surrounded by screens, sugar, and infinite comfort.
Too tired and unmotivated to do the things he says he wants.
Wasting their lives away watching others live it, while they cheer them on from the sidelines…
never to experience the beauty of life for themselves…
And that’s why I’ve brought you here, my disciple.
To explore the question of, “How did man devolve so quickly?”
How have we arrived at The Death of Masculine & Ambitious Men.
So, how did we get here?
Trading our ambition to go out into the real world and accomplish our dreams, to trading
all of our aspirations for short-term comfort and pleasure.
Guys have lost their purpose, they’re stuck in an endless loop of bouncing from dopamine
hit to dopamine hit on social media, porn, junk food, video games, repeat.
It’s become the norm to trade all of our ambition to accomplish things in the world
for cheap dopamine.
Why go try and change your life and the world, when you have an endless supply of Netflix
and pizza?
It feels better in the moment to sit on the couch or lay in bed all day, but over time
you feel worse and that ambition inside you dies more and more until eventually it’s
ALL gone.
If you want to have a life and future that’s inspiring, it’s going to require you to
not only be ambitious, but to act on that ambition as well.
We went from being able to change the outside world, and create a more inspiring future,
to escaping to video games, and our phones because they give us a sense of control and
power in the digital world, instead of the REAL physical world.
Guys are more filled with anxiety and uncertainty than ever.
Isn’t it a coincidence that anxiety levels are through the roof when we’re most disconnected
from the physical, REAL world.
This quote from Alexander Cortes sums this up perfectly:
“Everything is real, Pain is real
Effort is real Strength is real
Skill is REAL You get what you put in.
The hypothetical bullshit world of the anxious mind dissolves.
Men need this.
The world at large needs more of this.
I couldn’t agree more.
We’re too busy taking shortcuts for the ‘feelings’ we want that we started to
trade the ‘things’ we want.
We’re more disconnected from the REAL world than ever.
Learning to focus in a world full of distractions and instant gratification is hard, but that’s
why it’s so rewarding.
If you never learn to hunker down and focus, you’ll end up living a frivolous life that
passes by way too quickly, and you’ll never do anything meaningful with your one chance
at life.
Sorry bro, I made humans mortal, you don’t get to live forever like me!
The world of infinite, on-demand comfort can either trap you and prevent you from doing
anything in your life, OR it can unlock your true potential, if you learn to use it wisely.
The internet can teach you to start your own business, build your own physique, and cultivate
your mind.
But it can also give you access to porn first thing in the morning, give you so much cheap
dopamine that you don’t want to do anything else, and turn you into a robot.
We’ve been given the access codes to our own nuclear demise and we have no idea how
to use it without ruining ourselves.
Here’s a question I want to ask you:
Is your phone using you, or are you using your phone?
Answering this question will give you insight into what path you’re on.
A path of frivolous, forgettable, day-to-day micro pleasures, OR a path where you truly
make the most of the one life you have and leave no stone unturned?
If you clicked on this video and made it this far, I think it’s obvious which path you
want to be on.
The first step to walking that path is to use your tools consciously.
Ask yourself this the next time you instinctively pull out your phone and start checking apps
you don’t care about.
That’s not a conscious use of your tool.
That’s pure habit / addiction.
It’s become so easy to trade ambition for comfort that it’s become the default for
most people.
Don’t let this be the case for you, my disciple.
Rise up and ascend to the realm of the Gods my friend.
Instead of constantly filling your brain with knowledge that you forget about immediately
after you’re done consuming it, focus on the action you can take to get you to where
you want to be.
The simplest and easiest way to do this is to wake up each day and before you do anything
else, before you check Instagram, before you start swiping on Tinder, write down the ONE
thing you can accomplish that day to get you closer to your goal.
And not just any one thing, the MOST important thing you can do TODAY to get you closer to
your goal.
The one thing that will give you the most progress for the day.
And sorry bro, “researching YouTube videos” is almost certainly not the best thing you
can do.
And if that’s your thing, make sure you add a legitimate action to that as well.
If you’re researching how to start a business, along with your research you should be doing
things like, writing down potential product ideas, potential marketing angles, and a calendar
/ schedule for when you’ll launch.
Everything you do must have a deadline.
Otherwise you’ll never accomplish anything, and you’ll spend all day ‘researching’
when you’re really just watching videos all day.
Remember, knowledge with no action is useless.
Knowing how to change your life is NOT the same as actually changing your life.
Back in the caveman days, men and women had no knowledge aside from each other, they had
to learn by doing, by experiencing for themselves.
And that’s another thing you MUST do.
Adopt The ‘do something’ attitude.
The drive to take action, the will to explore and solve problems by charging them headfirst.
By taking action.
Most decisions are reversible and not life-ending, so moving fast is typically better than moving
slow.
This is why having a bias towards action is so important.
Too many of us have become soft.
We complain that our lives aren’t good enough while we’re 25% body fat and eating sugary
garbage for breakfast.
We complain that we’re unhappy when we spend all of our time indoors, with no sunlight,
no physical activity, and 5+ hours a day on our phones WATCHING OTHER PEOPLE LIVE LIFE.
When are you gonna say enough’s enough, it’s time for me to go live my own life,
instead of spending it watching other people do it?
It all starts with action.
I’ve been doing this YouTube thing for 4 years now, and this is the single point of
failure I see from most men, NO ACTION.
You have guys practicing their conversation skills and eye contact with girls on youtube
videos instead of actually going out and doing it for real.
Even saying hi to a person is now cause for extreme discomfort and an instructional how-to
video.
Now again, this isn’t all bad and there’s some good that comes out of this.
But it just shows how quickly things have changed.
Our bar for discomfort is set far too low.
And our drive to take action is lower than ever before.
If you never want to be uncomfortable then do the same thing you’re doing right now
and you’ll ALWAYS be comfortable!
But guess what, you’ll never do anything meaningful, your life is going to stay the
exact same or worse, and you’ll always wonder in the back of your head, ‘is this really
it for me?
Or was I meant to do more with my life?’
Your answer to that question is directly related to how much discomfort you’re willing to
endure.
Think about that question every day, and then choose what that day will look like, my disciple.
A lot of guys come to me for dating advice and 99% of the questions I get are from guys
who are overthinking and avoiding taking the action, like asking the girl out, sending
that text, making the move, or telling her how you really feel.
And it all comes down to staying trapped in your comfort zone.
Guys cant even text a girl nowadays without overthinking it for 2 hours and then settling
on sending something ‘safe’ and gimmicky.
That’s why I made the course, The Godly Texting Guide.
The course that will single handedly take you from no girls, and no responses, to too
many girls and too many responses to keep track of.
And yes, it’s already worked for over 3,000 men just like you.
Seriously this course was designed to make it as EASY as possible to take action.
In fact, inside the course I hand you my warchest of over 100 word-for-word opening lines, attraction-building
tactics, breakdowns of real-life conversations, and my 3 letter IEC method getting her hooked
on you from the first message.
With everything I hand you in the course, it’ll be harder for you to NOT take action
than it is to take action.
You’ll have everything you’ll ever need to message gorgeous women and build attraction.
Your conversations will become automatic.
When men are ready to finally leave their comfort zone and handle their dating life
