I started to consciously escape the chokehold of limiting beliefs when I was walking with my buddy in downtown Toronto a few years ago. We were looking for a place to grab some beers and we walked by an upscale venue that had good vibe and a busy patio and as we were about to walk past it I said: "Wait let's just go here" He said "Nah this place is too much" I said what do you mean? Let's try it out and I talked him into it. I could feel that we were both a bit nervous about being there as we usually just went to the cheap pub on the other street that was much more appropriate for people like us. There were so many pretty girls on the patio that my biology took over and here we now sat. Summer in Toronto is beautiful, truly heaven on earth. This place was more expensive than we were used to though. Usually we could grab a beer for like $8. This place's prices...? $12 That $4 and a limiting belief was what stopped us from going there for about a full year that I lived there beforehand. That's how sneaky limiting beliefs are. Another one I noticed that you guys probably have run into are shopping malls. In there are regular stores but there are usually also upscale designer stores where the cheapest item is like $500. I would encourage you guys to go in and take a look at what you like and take pictures of it. Maybe one day come back and get it once you get the cash but that's not really the lesson. The lesson is don't let a general vibe of exclusivity induce anxiety in you and tell you that you don't belong there. I started taking guys to upscale hotels in the city because they had nice spots for pictures and usually are very open and accessible. Here's a shoot we did at the Ritlz-Carlton in Downtown Toronto. I started this event series where we went to eat at nice restaurants at the city and shot content with girls that we knew. It's something that would've seemed so crazy to me beforehand and only something rich people could do. Cost to shoot this picture? $50 It's also very important in terms of the type of women you think are out of your league. I started watching a lot of historical dramas with royal plot intrigues so I have a newfound obsession with princesses. Am I ever gonna get with one? I don't know, probably if I keep trying and I don't fall for some other lovely ladies beforehand. Turns out there are hundreds of princesses alive today and you can just DM them on Instagram. I think Chiara de Bourbon is very cute and I like what she's doing with her charity work. Did she answer? No. You know who did answer? This girl with 600k followers that came to my photoshoot. We ended up getting a $40,000,000 mansion as the location for the shoot also. It cost us $10,000 to rent it but it was worth it. Just kidding ,it cost $0. My buddy messaged a real estate agent and said we'd come by to shoot some content and give them some free shots to help promote the listing. One of the founders of a Pizzaiolo, a Canadian pizza chain, came by in his Lambo since he lived close by and was friends with the owner of the mansion. Super cool dude, he let us take pictures in the Lambo. Sour grapes is also another common limiting belief. Most people think that rich people are arrogant pricks. Some of them are but some of them are super nice and open to collaborating with people that come to them with genuine value. If we wanted to come by the mansion and bring some booze and get shit faced and throw a party that would've been a harder ask. Giving them free media to fulfill their goal and ours at the same time is a much better strategy. Once we had the connect my club promoter buddy actually did reach out to them to host a Christmas Party there. The price tag for that though was legitimately $10,000 so he skipped it. Believe in yourself and learn about social arbitrage, it's such a powerful strategy to get access to places and people that the average joe doesn't. Here is a very easy homework for those of you that live in a decently big city, make a point to go to the nicest restaurant and hotel in your city and treat yourself to the good life. You deserve it. A meal might be more expensive but a trick is that you can go to a luxury hotel and just get a coffee at the hotel restaurant and it'll cost you $12 instead of a $2 coffee from Mcdonalds. It's gonna be a bit better, to me a double double is hard to beat but the point is to just go relax, maybe literally meditate there and not to let a nice environment rob you of your frame and confidence. Maybe you can mingle and make some new friends too, I've heard hotel bars are a great way to meet single travellers looking to get busy upstairs.

This is good. Now you can focus on your life purpose and meeting people that matter to help you reach it. Most friends are friends of convenience, not really valuable allies for us in time of need. That's why it's important to learn intentional networking and social circle game. Finally got out of the drunk tank huh! It's good to see you back man. I don't have a monogamous girlfriend right now. You can see some of the girls I hangout with on my Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/DOH0JPxka8M/?img_index=1

If you know yourself and you're satisfied with the results it gets you then more power to you. I would definitely recommend most men to have an active presence on social media. It can help your business and career goals as well. Overall it gives you massive leverage for the little time it takes to learn how to use it effectively.

On top of having an epistemic process for validating your first person experience then I think it's solid. You know the earth is round because you have scientists that have calculated it and proved it by putting satellites into outer space and taking pictures of it. You can then have a certain burden of proof for the science involved but mainstream science proves that pretty handily.

Yeah, it's definitely easier said than done. I would say don't give up on your dreams and passions but learn how to integrate current market trends into it and build a highly valuable skillset to be able to create a solid offering that meets market demand. I've had periods of making thousands of dollars a month doing something I love and living easily from it. Others of needing to get a job to pay my bills and put the business on pause for a while. It's part of the journey. I'll cosign @Ulax's recommendation of So Good They Can't Ignore You, really good book that gave me a lot of clarity about the path I was on. I actually got it for a girl I was seeing at the time

What I find really helps me is deconstructing vague goals into a more specific objectives. Using the SMART goal setting framework is my go to Then "getting good at attracting hot girls" becomes "it will probably take me 3 months to 2 years depending on my level of consistency to be able to consistently go on dates with women I'm very attracted to." I think being able to attract hot women is a skillset that any man can develop, just depends how serious he is and how much effort he's willing to put into it. If one practices game, gets his online dating profile in order, works on his sex appeal through fitness/dressing well/charisma and has his finances in order it's pretty wild the results you can get in terms dating and sex life.

Yeah I think every man should do that. Having a good profile that comes across well can be done in 1 week. I would recommend going out with friends or hiring a photographer and taking good pictures in nice locations across your city. Rooftop bars, hotel lobbies, an iconic downtown street, etc. Also archive the posts that are too old and don't represent your brand well. Blurry pic drinking in college, random memes, posts with you not in it, past interests that aren't on brand anymore, etc. Being able to exchange Instagrams with all the women you meet and come across as a cool guy they wanna get to know further is a no brainer in terms of dating strategy.

I appreciate it boys, I wish for you guys to accomplish all your dating goals as well! Depends on the one, feel free to share and we can deconstruct it.

Let's go, the Actualized squad out in the field helping to counter global population decline! Love to see members actually taking real-world action together!

This phenomenon has become increasingly obvious to me over the years as I deal with more and more people that seem to fall under the stage green umbrella but have a weird shadow and seem to lack the ability to empathize in a lot of ways. First let's define our terms so we know what we're talking about here The main phenomenon I see is that these people tend to identify really strongly with their own pain and thus they gain a lot of sympathy for the pain of others experiencing SIMILAR CIRCUMSTANCES that often revolve around powerlessness and you vs the system. This gives them a disdain for the system and all things related to it like meritocracy, business, competence, quantification, science, skillset, etc. This leads them to fundamentally not understand society and reality and not being able to make the jump to yellow. Other people that aren't in a similar situation as them they don't feel relatability towards and thus their sympathy is cut off and their empathy skills were limited from the start so they turn weirdly bitter, resentful and sometimes openly violently antagonistic. This is where cognitive empathy comes in and the ability to understand another even if they live different lives than you. You should be able to empathize with someone from another nation or someone that's richer than you or someone that has different a ideology than you.

To be completely real with you, I don’t have a coding background and I'm not very experienced with agents yet. The most I’ve done so far is mess around with Gemini Spark, so half of your workflow and that handoff script honestly looks like hieroglyphics to me haha. What does that handoff actually do in plain English? To answer your questions on what I’m trying to do: Right now I’m just using the consumer apps/interfaces, but the CRM problem I want to solve comes from my dating photography business. Traditional CRMs that I've tried (like GoHighLevel) feel good but feel a bit archaic, not customizable enough for my taste and have a lot of limits in what they can do. I want an LLM that can handle that initial back-and-forth conversation naturally, answer basic questions, qualify if they're actually a serious buyer, and then hand them off to me or a closer once they're ready to book. Basically an automated appointment setter that doesn't sound like a mindless bot. From there I want to connect it to my old lead list and be able to track followups and conversion % from a dashboard. I haven't heard of Paperclip AI, what is it and why did you think of it?

Social media is the most powerful tool we have today to have an impact on reality as an individual.

Beauty is the initial door but there's much more to it. Some women have a certain flow that is quite magnetic, you see it with some Youtubers that just vlog their day without really even sexualizing themselves and it's quite charming. They have a way of being inwardly focused but still create abundance for others. It's also an existential match that inspires creation and work ethic, building and competing for the sake of status or idk legacy gets old real quick but to create a shared life with female companions is a very inspiring and driving force to me. Femininity has a simple grace that is a good match for the overwhelming force of masculinity and gives it a vessel to channel its expansive energy. It there was a only masculinity I feel like we'd be just different versions of Sparta fighting each-other endlessly.

I think it's sweet you're hopping on the Instagram train, once you get it setup right you'll never look back. Nothing more satisfying than watching your story viewers and it's like half of the cute girls you talked to this month. Phone number closes are like 13th-century carrier pigeons at this point.

I appreciate the clarification. And hey, nothing passive about it—purely aggressive, but I'm working on transmuting my inner Stage Red demon energy into productivity. It is a worthwhile issue to dissect though. @Zenterus makes a valid point but I think it lacks nuance and I'm right that a lot of people without a growth mindset see anybody that actually has a superior development to them as delusional or arrogant even if that's not accurate.

The bad news is that stuff like this is bound to keep happening and escalate over the next few years. The good news is they already saw this coming from miles away and it's basically the plot of the 7th Mission Impossible The 2nd bad news is that there is a timeline where humanity is now ruled by the Church of Scientology with Tom Cruise as our World Emperor Dictator. The 2nd good news is I think you and I could take him down. They will never expect an actualized revolution to meticulously take down the Scientology world order, we need to start to plan quickly though. If we fail we can always pivot and pitch him a great idea for the plot of the 9th Mission Impossible. I come up with pretty good ideas so he might very well go for it, then we'll have a high position in the new Cruise World Order and either way we're set.

Israel is like a belligerent vassal state to the US. Geopolitics runs on balance of power, not moral consistency. India, while growing, is nowhere near possessing the industrial, technological, or military scale to contest global hegemony. Western strategists actually see India as a natural counterweight to Beijing. China is the only true peer-level competitor capable of reshaping the global economic architecture and dethroning US supremacy. When a state threatens another state's primacy, media narratives and domestic hostility are weaponized by default to manufacture public alignment. It’s structural incentives and competition, pure and simple.

Happened 3 months ago here in Montreal Fortunately it's not too common of a thing since the psychology of an incel/blackpiller makes them inefficient people but it's still concerning. A few years ago there was a theory that an incel revolution was coming due to all the young dudes that were both unsuccessful in the dating and job market but it seems impossible since they are fundamentally apathetic and thus lazy. It seems that Black Pilll is more popular than Red Pill since the road to a feeling better about yourself is much shorter. Don't worry about improving your life, just call the game rigged and women unreasonable and you're a wise man above petty societal games after watching a single 10 min Black pill video. @Raze Good points. They say the most dangerous lies are made of half-truths. It's true that you need to level up and provide value to society to have a great life. They both take that concept and twist into bizarre ideologies that indeed match their formative traumas. There is a great article that broke down Tate's childhood and growing up with an absent father making him believe that a man is supposed to be a superhero that doesn't have time for his kids.

An ancient philosopher once sat under a tree with the moon shining down through the dark. The silence of the evening was punctured by the distant roar of crowds heading out to seize their Friday night. As the travelers were about to undertake the quest of a lifetime—or at least of the weekend—they felt a strange sensation running through their limbs. Was it a message from a being in an alternate dimension, or simply the anxiety humming through their veins after neglecting their social lives all month? A troubled seeker stepped forward, casting his gaze toward the dust at his feet, and whispered: "What if the grandest visions of our minds are merely illusions, and our doubts prove to be the boundary of our true reality?" The philosopher looked upon these souls, so eager to experience the blessings of the universe—which, in this context, took the form of companions with beautifully shaped proportions—and left them with a single crumb of wisdom to light a fire in their chests: "Don't let your dreams be memes. Let's get it." What about you @Someone here , what dating vision are you working towards?

If you'd like to test your understanding of spiral dynamics, you're more than welcome to deconstruct my posts. Always more to learn or opportunities to teach people with a biased understanding. Keep in mind that to an insecure person just sharing your life will sound like an insult and bragging to them.

That's a great point. The goal is to be strategic, not delusional. I did not get to shoot models in the $40M mansion by sitting around and watching anime all day. I only watched anime for part of the day and the rest of the day I took an online photography course and networked with dudes that had similar social goals as me and that's how I met friends that threw photoshoots with me and the dude that setup the mansion shoot. The key is building social capital and turning yourself into a top guy. I feel like post-scarcity is already happening, all of these things now cost $0. Here is one of the best courses I've ever watched on social circle game and building social capital, shoutout to one of my top mentors in this area RSD Luke. Also I think that if you're gonna aim to date and sleep with particularly beautiful women then 8/10 is shooting too low my dude. You should go for 9s and above and really your perfect 10. Think about Leo's point on being God and manifesting your own reality. You're literally to my point manifesting limiting beliefs when your potential is unlimited. Learn the proper strategy to reach your goals and your options become unlimited. It then becomes more about alignment and trying stuff out and seeing if it really makes you feel good or you just liked the idea of it. Although I'll tell you from experience, I've tried sleeping with women I was not really attracted to and women that I was amazed that they were in my bed and one is about 20x more satisfying than the other. I'm usually a stoic guy and my roommate in Toronto was like, 'Why are you so happy today?' the morning after I finally hooked up with this gorgeous girl I had been taking out. Cool girl, we ended up FWBs for a few months and we would watch Death Note in bed together in between rounds.

There are some actual real bottlenecks that a positive mindset and good strategy cannot help you overcome that's true. If you are quadriplegic it'll be difficult to run a marathon in 2027. Biotech and AI medicine are looking quite promising, I think for 2037 and surely 2047 we got a real shot. I would be really optimistic if I was quadriplegic right now. Feel free to share your situation and we can work through if it's a real limiting reality or a limiting belief. 90% of objections to doing cool things in life I hear from people tend to be limiting beliefs though.

You can use it as a distraction or as a muse towards actualizing your greatest potential. The dating market is so ruthless that it exposes most of your shadows and weak psychology so I think it's really one of the best self-development tools we have as humans. Bonus point that it's so fun and great and boobs my friend. Think about the spiritual profundity of that.

I think the complete opposite bro. I think it helps you distinguish between authentic goals and a need for validation. If you talk about your goals and people tell you "great job that sounds awesome man you got this!" then it solves the need for social validation in the back of your psyche and you now have your full brainpower available to focus on the real vision. For me I find that my real goals are so audacious that I have to speak them aloud to stretch my baseline and kill the limiting beliefs. Then I find myself more able to consistently work towards them without getting as much anxiety around it. You gave me a good idea for a post on limiting beliefs, I'll make it.

I've used GoHighLevel before and it was okay and helped but it wasn't really powerful or customizable enough to build my whole business around. I'm looking to either get into n8n automated workflows like this Or build my own with Claude type of thing, seems doable For me the unlock and current bottleneck is making it so once I figure out an SOP, I build an automation that keeps doing it for me and I can track it's performance. From there I can get them all to be more and more efficient over time while I mostly handle sales calls at the start and then eventually rebuild my sales team so I can just focus on quality control and business development which are my natural strengths. @Joshe I think you’re onto something major with this framework. The emphasis on deterministic gates and bounded constraints rather than just relying on open-ended prompts/memory is the real dividing line between a toy and production reliability. Can you share more about the workflows you're building with this and what type of projects you're tackling?
