If you can't see how men are becoming weaker by the moment these days, we're probably not going to find common ground... because you'd be too weak to find it.
There are three drivers of today's epidemic of weakness:
- People are trained to be weak - Never has it been so normal for folks to grow up in an environment where strength is done poorly, if not absent altogether. These days, one's trained not to be strong, but to be entitled to strength being supplied by others.
2. People are encouraged to be weak - If you are surrounded by weak people, weak guidance, advice, and support you will receive. We're now at the point where tools to become strong have been absent for generations in some environments.
3. People are rewarded for being weak - We've lived in a surplus for so long that victimhood has become a virtuous pursuit, with many benefits to be gained from its mastery. In the aquarium, the average commoner eats best when he most prominently conveys his hunger.
How does one inoculate himself from the temptations of weakness in an ecosystem that incentivizes it?
- Install rituals of strength: Lift weights. Train martial arts. Empower your mind.
- Surround yourself with Crushers
- Get out of the aquarium mindset and appreciate the adventure life has waiting for you by engaging it!
Stay on Mission,
