If you look around yourself, you will find that masculinity is on a decline.
Men walking around with no real purpose in life.
Living corpses.
Almost like zombies.
And the biggest reason for this is instant gratification.
Note this down, when you delay instant gratification, you will experience long term satisfaction.
Listen to that again.
when you delay instant gratification, you will experience long term satisfaction.
period.
Being able to overcome your own desires to do whats right and correct.
Now, that is what you call a masculine man.
A man driven not by his passions, but by the truth.
Instant gratification kills high value men.
It makes slaves out of kings, whilst patience makes kings out of slaves.
This is applicable to everything in life, whether that be nofap, your buisness, or even
relationships.
Everything needs time, dedication and discipline, that instant gratification simply won’t
provide.
Take for example a person who starts his own business.
The first year he doesn’t make any profits.
The second year he just breaks even.
But the third year he starts to make some profits.
and all the years after that are 10x his income.
Now, if a low value man would have started this business, he would have given up before
the first year even ended.
why?
Instant gratification.
He wants money then and there.
Here’s a real life story of a person who wanted to get rid of instant gratification.
Here’s what they said.
Listen closely.
I'm 3 years into college and I've had a epiphany.
I have a serious problem with instant gratification.
In other words, my life experiences up until this point have conditioned me to be a procrsatinator.
and to only enjoy things if they come easily to me.
I've basically just hit the point where life starts throwing real challenges at me, like
post school plans, work, finances and so on. and I don't know how to deal with it.
I've realized that I'm not actually hardworking and that I'm only of average intelligence.
With school, I've become accustomed to procrastinating. and doing papers or projects the night before
and still getting rewarded for it with good grades.
Writing papers and schoolwork generally comes pretty easy to me.
so in reality I actually don't know how to push myself and work hard.
When something begins to challenge me, I can't get past the middle stage of gradually improving
at something because it isn't instant gratification.
I almost can't feel bothered to do something unless I get something back within 24 hours.
So, how do I rid myself of this toxic mentally and actually become hardworking?
Now what you just heard was a real life story of someone who is struggling with instant
gratification.
Remember, everything we do now has specially been engineered to gives us instant gratification
and that dopamine hit.
For example, every time you get on facebook, every time you see likes your photos, every
time you watch a movie.
Everything has been specially engineered to keep you hooked on dopamine.
And because of this lifestyle, its so easy to fall into the trap of instant gratification.
But the best way to get out of this trap is simply having a long term purpose and the
discipline to get you there.
It sounds cliche and so simple, but thats exactly what you need.
Start small.
Postpone a little bit of gratification for a little while.
Once that becomes easy, and it will.
Then start taking on harder challenges.
remember, what you need here is discipline.
If you have watched our other meditation and mind reprogramming videos. then you know,
That discipline is like a muscle.
The more you train it, the stronger it gets.
And the stronger your self discipline, the stronger your ability to overcome instant
gratification.
And remember, There is no instant gratification in fighting instant gratification.
So motivation won’t help you succeed in.
This area.
Its discipline.
Period.
One of the best ways to fight instant gratification is nofap.
Not only instant gratification, but also to develop self discipline.
Because remember, like the bible says.
The one who conquers himself, is greater than the one who conquers a city.
Stand strong.
And fight the system that has been specially designed to keep you in this cycle of instant
gratification.
