Progress rarely feels like a leap while you're in it. Most days, it's just showing up, holding the standard, and refusing to let quiet moments slip away. Keep building.
Most people don’t have a capability problem, they have a clarity problem.
When you don't know what you're optimizing for, every distraction feels like an opportunity.
Build the vision first. Eliminate the noise second. Execution becomes simple when direction is non-negotiable.
@thearthouse33 "These people lose parents early. Betrayal, forgiveness, redemption." this really hit home man🤒 lost my mother on a 25th Dec and my father on 30th December.
betrayal from the ones who swore to never leave but was the first to walk away.
@Cr7Godbrand How did our Grandfathers allow the women raise our fathers who allowed their wives raise these weak Men? you don't expect society to have strong men when you marry or bring kids into this world and let them be raised sorely by a woman. Men are responsible for Mens weakness.
“Man at his birth is supple and weak; at his death, firm and strong… Thus it is that firmness and strength are the concomitants of death; softness and weakness, the concomitants of life.”
— Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching, Chapter 76
That is not a sign that she is interested; it is a sign that she has developed a masculinised mindset.
How did she reach that stage? Through experience.
Women experience this world at the level of the heart.
If her heart has not been broken, she can trust any man. Whichever man offers his hand to her, she trusts him and follows him blindly.
Her heart is pure, so her intuition always projects a positive view of life.
Optimism acts as opium for a young, pure woman.
She thinks that her boyfriend is the only great man in the world until she witnesses the harshness of the world and begins to see him as a failure in life.
Once her heart is broken and shattered, she intuitively never trusts again.
That is why she asks open-ended questions:
“What do you do? What is your job?” And so on.
After heartbreak, she begins questioning on two levels.
She scans the man—not to find a better man, because optimism and hope are now dead.
She now acts through pessimism and has concluded that all men are trash.
However, she still has to live her life.
The unconscious hatred she carries from her heartbreak will emerge as distrust and revenge against the next man.
That is the major reason women were always protected and never allowed to talk to or establish relationships with men.
That is why they were never allowed to go outside and witness the cruelty of this world; otherwise, their hearts would die, and they would no longer operate through their hearts.
If they use their heads instead—which represents the masculine principle and contains a moral framework and to act on it take more ruthlessness so they take only cunning part of it along with it they use their allure and experience as weapons to make other people their slaves.
Now they operate on two levels:
First, they observe. They quickly come to know how much understanding of the female world a man possesses. Within one day, they determine whether he is wise or foolish.
Once they encounter a fool, they ask more questions to determine his worth and everything else so that they can conquer his resources and use them to fund their lives.
Coming back to the topic:
Why is she asking open-ended questions?
To verify you. Why does she need verification?
She is unable to trust, although trust comes naturally to the feminine—but only the first time.
When a woman asks you open-ended questions, she has reached a position from which she can debate with you.
You cannot win a debate with a woman at all. That is the starting point from which your feminisation will begin.
From there, she starts taking control over you by asking questions merely to control and manipulate you.
Women in love do not ask questions at all. They trust and follow without any hesitation.
Any man who has experience with both types of women—the one who is pure and in love, and the one who is experienced—can easily detect that she is asking questions to assess his level of understanding.
From that point, she will be able to make him her slave.
If she is in love, she is in surrender. Therefore, no question remains to be asked.
Her trust alone is enough for her to cross all boundaries and disregard all conventions in order to be available in your service.
A woman asks questions only when, in the background of her mind, she is thinking about how to hunt a man.
When she is in love, she surrenders and is ready to be hunted by the man whose image she has created in her heart, mind, and entire being.
Who knows his manhood’s strength, yet still his female feebleness maintains… all come to him.”
— Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching, Chapter 28
A rare man requires a rare woman
And vice versa
Outliers are meant to be together
Not with normal people
Now you likely fancy yourself rare
Because it suits your ego to
You like to think you’re special
But are you truly? What’s so different about you?
What do you do and demonstrate that’s so rare amongst your ilk?
What difficult and impressive things can you do, that your class of people generally cannot do?
You see, the exception to the rule only truly applies when you’re dealing with outliers
Then many rules begin to break down, because capability is so great and agency so high, that limitations which generally apply to the majority, cease to apply to you.
And of course, everyone likes to think that’s them, but is it really - is that really you - or do you tell yourself it’s you to avoid an unglamorous conclusion?
And if it is you - if it truly is you - do not allow the normal people, the average, the herd, the bots - those lesser humans incapable of your metaphysics to preach to you and correct you - because they speak only what they know and what they believe works for them, and in all their smallness, what works for them will not work for you.
Unlike they, who must follow a prescribed path with rules and relatable observations
You must forge your own path from scratch - and walk it
And for the freedom lover this is attractive, and yet for the lost it is daunting - to know neither the protection of the herd, nor the comfort of familiarity
And so if you are the rare man or the rare woman and you have decided you need a rare woman or a rare man - because you know the common man and common woman will leave you wanting, and you believe in your own rareness you can be good enough for your rare opposite - then you must ask yourself:
“Where can I find one as rare as me - where would the opposite me be most likely to be?”
And then frequent it. For if anyone should not settle, it is surely you - because the rare man is a great man and the rare woman is a great woman, and great people only become truly legendary when they’re together.
