Documenting your journey as opposed to pretending to be a worldclass authority straight from the bat usually solves that issue. I got that tip from Gary Vee.

Teaching helps you learn for sure. Start a youtube channel/instagram around it and post a piece of content this week! I'll watch and subscribe. Pro tip if you're interested in going down that route, put up some street interviews talking to girls about dating in your city in front of recognizable landmarks. You'll get a lot of organic views from non game related people that are just interested in seeing social media content filmed in their city. If you get a funny moment from a cute girl it can easily get 5-100K views. If you just film yourself in your bedroom talking about game it'll get much lower engagement especially when starting out and not having an established core audience. I've made that mistake before.

What were the main points you liked from this video? Just watched this one and found it very informative. It talks about why Booze is a key issue as it's very easy to remove booze from shelves and cause hundreds of millions of dollars in damage to the US without affecting procurement deals and affecting canadian supply chains. Also covers some of the internet politics that are going on around it. For example Alberta and Saskatchewan seem reticent to follow Carney's instructions and have stocked back american booze already. Ontario hasn't and Doug Ford is playing a specific game since he has the most leverage with LCBO being one of the largest purchaser of alcohol in the world and his main priority is removing the auto tariffs that also affect the ontario aluminum/steel industries. It shows how we are using the limited power we have to inflict the most damage possible while being open to pivoting as soon as the american administration is willing to offer a fair deal. This gave me more faith in the negotiation tactics of Carney and his team.

😂 It's also the classic christian preacher and teleevangelists, materialism is bad, be careful not to be corrupted by money. Please send me your donations so I can get a private jet to and I will take the brave role of shouldering materialism on your behalf.

The first step is awareness, good on you to have made this post. Most humans have the victim mindset seeping out of them without admitting it to themselves. I see it on this forum and in life as a whole. Second step is to level up and fix the issue. The abundance mindset starts out as an idea that you try to manifest while telling yourself IM A HIGH VALUE MAN WOMEN LOVE ME in the mirror while no woman goes out with you but it takes hold once you actually go out with attractive women and they enjoy your company and fuck you so I mean your brain has not much to doubt at that point. Are you on dating apps or solely doing cold approach? I think dating apps are a great foundation for abundance in dating because with a good profile you can go on a date each week with about 10 mins of effort. It's probably not gonna be with your dream women so stuff like social circle and status are important to attract the hotter women but it's a good start. Cold approach is a good baseline because you can get some feedback today as soon as you approach a girl but it's not really an efficient mechanism to truly unlock abundance in dating and sex. Also victim mindset, rejection and self-sabotage have a weird masochistic characteristic to it, it's almost like getting hooked on the dark side of the force in star wars. Levelling up and building a dream life has a long term feedback loop and a lot of friction, it's not that fun until you actually build an awesome life years down the line. Getting rejected and telling yourself im so bad oh no women hate me is like those femdom dudes that love to get humiliated. Be careful with unless it's truly your fetish.

Our love might not survive another day, let's do it tonight. We must unite against the evil empire. Find all your female friends, only the power of the harem can defeat the Spetsnaz. War and romance is a story as old as time.

I played runescape a bit in school, I didn't get into it I'm french so I ended up falling for another popular mmorpg at the time Dofus. I like the job system from runescape, I like systems so the different jobs going from 1-99 seems cool to me. Can you elaborate on what you like about the game and why you still play it all these years later? Also why do you think the MMORPG and gaming industry as a whole is stagnating? Seems a lot of the biggest mainstream games are just reverting their game back to 10 years ago and people are liking that more than their new versions. Happened to World of Warcraft, Runescape, Dofus and League of Legends now also released a classic mode that is just the 2014 game. @Leo Gura Chris Roberts the founder of star citizen is apparently a black sheep in the game dev industry and is known for being a narcissistic micromanager that's clearly destroying the actual business efficiency of Cloud Imperium Games to produce actual value for their customers.

I'm down, let's get it.

Evil is mostly based in destruction as opposed to creation. Usually it comes from small mindedness as you can usually achieve the same goal you were trying to achieve but in a creative way as opposed to taking the easy way out and destroying in the process. Theft is an easy example, why are you stealing if you can engage in commerce and provide value to others and get paid for it. Rape is another good example, why do you need to override another being's consent to get laid or to feel powerful? Learn some game and you will get all sex that you want in a loving way instead of being a destructive rapist.

It was him the whole time! The one sent to destroy the western catholic empire and create new super army of a enlightened beings that will bring back the Tsardom and restore the Empire to it's former glory. They got us good. привет!

I think she's right and people are gonna get trapped chasing a pump that was just a liquidity grab by market manipulators.

You're misrepresenting my argument. I never said society is less safe. I said that gaslighting yourself that all groups are the same is not helpful in my mind. It's like the Leo blog post where he said some spiritual people and most stage green people try to invalidate the dangers of reality by using their good emotions. That works until you encounter a crocodile, or a criminal or just the competitive nature of society. I linked it to black men because you seemed uncomfortable going there and I'm black so I thought it'd be an interesting point to bring up. My brother was telling me himself that perhaps he has some internalized racism because he thought the same thing but I don't think it's that simple. Socioeconomics are a real thing and often times black communities are driven to more crime than other communities. Not always and other communities also are involved in crime but I dislike the idea of ignoring reality to feel better superficially.

Enforce your boundaries. A lot of women struggle with one telling themselves that their boundaries are valid and two enforce them once they decide on them. Predatory men take advantage of that all the time. Most men don't know how to meet women so they will hit on every single woman they meet in whatever context and be inappropriate and lack social calibration. You're not crazy this is weird af. Unless you're into him but doesn't sound like it so sounds like a boundaries needed type of issue or time to find another job.

Yes Zenterus! You have probably the most well thought out dating takes on the forum. I crown you dating philosopher king. It couldn't possibly be because you resonate with a lot of my ideas, I would never fall pray to such silly psychology. I like your insight on being interesting looking and not just 10% body fat greek god, that's a good point. A lot of "blue pill" men tend to be not able to get out of their comfort zones in all kinds of ways and one of those is just looking like any other dude out there. Women are interested in different archetypes and if you're just basic man number 8 at a party you're fighting an uphill battle. A lot of dudes in the fashion industry are really cool looking and have a unique vibe to them just by experimenting with different styles and finding what works for them. I tried out grey colored contacts for a while and that got me really good reactions from women. I want to pierce my ears and get cross earrings next I feel like that is a badass style. Also there is a hidden frame control component to it that gives you a bit more power than other men. The billionaire with the t shirt in the sea of 6 figure dudes with suits type of thing. If you're comfortable standing out from the crowd it's an honest signal of confidence. It's true that women don't like players in that they seek stability and a dude trying to fuck women left and right might be exciting but probably not be there for them when they need help or are preggo. That's why I always liked the idea of the purple pill concept. Take the beta qualities from the blue pill guys and the edginess of a red pill guy and be an interesting powerful man who doesn't submit to the conformity of society while still being a reliable supportive man. The coolest part about building a tribe is that you get to choose your own adventure type of thing. By joining a social circle or just living in the same frinend group you've had since you were 12 or by going to a club you're really existing in social constructs that are not your own. Build it and they will come!

Where I've not given your point enough credit is that in foreign policy weakness is not respected and gets abused. Nixon had the saying "Probe with bayonets any situation that looks mushy, withdrawing only when the bayonets meet steel." I think not conceiting and staying strong can help get us a better deal. I just worry about needlessly antagonizing narcissists. If they feel insulted they'll sabotage the negotiation at the benefit of no one. Sometimes you have to placate people that are crazy like Trump so that they feel like they won and everyone wins in return. I hope you're right and Carney is playing it right and not falling into his ego in this case.

@oOo I would say it's a case of magnifying glass not having the exact right angle and once it does; it'll burn through anything. I agree with you at the moment its best used as an advanced calculator to synthesized massive amounts of data. That amount of synthesizing is all that's needed for massive insight though, that's how humans learn as well. Pattern recognition with a goal in mind.

What a victim mindset. You're the one that turned it from a fact based conversation on Islam to your flailing out with insults. Get a grip.

Now you're gaslighting me. He didn't ask me to stop he doubled down. When people are good faithed and ask to stop the conflict and get back to productive conversation I take them up on it. This boils down to fight, flight, fawn or freeze. You're asking me to do the later when I will win at the first one. That is not serving me in any way whatsoever nor is it even serving this forum to tolerate bad points and passive aggressiveness from people that are wrong and not championing the values that it's based on. It's not ethical to let a fox eat you.

Yes, life is made of the self and others. Sometimes others want to challenge us and backing down is not the net positive outcome. I think honestly it's a male competition thing. For women harmony is a higher value concept than for men. If another male challenges me I don't see a reason to not accept his challenge if I'm gonna win.

I agree with you on the mechanics of persuasion, @Natasha Tori Maru. If the goal is cooperative debate or changing someone's mind, sledgehammering logic creates instant polarization. But persuasion requires a willing, good-faith participant. Sometimes grace and cooperation advance a discussion. Other times, you encounter an irreconcilable conflict with someone who brings bad-faith hostility, personal jabs, and dogmatic posturing. When someone chooses that route on a forum dedicated to high-level intellectualism, cooperative debate is off the table. My goal isn't to convert a hostile actor; it's to establish a firm boundary and completely dismantle the credibility of their position. I always prefer good-faith, cooperative exchange. But if someone chooses an adversarial road, I have zero problem meeting them on those terms and not backing down. That's just the reality of high-stakes dialogue.

@Thought Art Not about who is smarter, just about keeping the focus on macro data when discussing geopolitics. Take care man.

Right so your main point is that we are trusted and have many trade partners. I then debunked that we cannot pivot as 75% of our trade goes to the US and these are multi industry procurement deals that take years or decades to make. You then invalidate my point and link to random videos of Carney appealing to the country saying slogans like WE ARE STRONG AND WE DO NOT BACK DOWN. Like really? Sorry man I think you are probably a well meaning person but our standards for intellectual rigor are different. My whole point with calling you emotions over logic is that in both discussions you strayed away from the hard conclusions in favour of more a more sentimental conclusion that I then proved wrong. Your main point was that Muhammad was not a warlord and that you enjoy the spirit of islam and the poetry of it. That's cool but I linked the definition of a warlord. You could say that you don't think he's a warlord and he was a rapper and that's your truth but that's just as inaccurate. You once again based your thoughts on Mark Carney based on how he appears not what the country's actual situation actually is. We will see how it goes and it's fine if you wanna discuss vague generalities but to me that's not really helpful in anyway shape or fact. What exactly is your problem against using AI to quickly find and identify the actual numbers that shape this negotiation? Did I say anything incorrect or is this once again a feelings based objection? This was exactly my criticism of Carney in my first reply. He appeals to people's pride and ego and pumps people up YES WE ARE PROUD CANADIANS WE WILL NOT BACK DOWN and I think he likes to feel strong and powerful and it's hurting his negotiation abilities with the Americans. You're kind of proving my point by falling for it without talking about what we are negotiating about and running away from the actual reality of our economy. These feelings of pride will not help Canadians when hundreds of thousands of people lose their job due to ego based posturing. Sorry like this is geopolitics not spirituality. If we aren't talking facts what are we talking about?

It's a masterclass in human psychology, I don't understand why people are investing in it. Every fact I learn about it is wilder than the next. They sold over 2000 of these shits at $5k a pop and raised $10M from this concept ship in like 1 day. It's not playable though it's a concept for a ship. I don't think it's evil because they are legitimately trying to build it but it's a dumpster fire of a project and like I said I think unfortunately it's gonna implode at any time.
