When I was a kid (also in the 70's), my mother would kick us out of the house and say, "Don't come back till suppertime. I have things to do." We lived in a heavily wooded area, and would spend all day in the woods. Either that or we'd find an open space and play 12 hours of baseball.

As Morpheus told Neo before meeting The Oracle: "I told you I can only show you the door, YOU have to walk through it", there's a difference between knowing the truth and accepting the truth. Knowing the truth is easy: you read a book, you watch a video, or simply get heartbroken by the "love of your life". Accepting the truth is hard and it will take you a lot of time to surrender and understand that this is the real reality we are living in. You can't control it, you can't change it, but you can adapt and become better until you realize that life hasn't become easier - you just become stronger.

The rage is an absolutely normal response. From there you have a couple of options. (1) you can dwell on how it's unfair and end up in a very dark place, or (2) you can accept it and find ways to live in this new reality. If I were you, I'd go with the second choice. How do you do that? By working on your looks, money, status, and game. You don't have to be Brad Pitt, but you do have to work on becoming the best version of yourself. Room for improving never stops. Also, be careful of the all content that's out there that dives into this stuff. There are a lot of creators that only complain but offer no solution.

[@buttonman1831]

When you are young sometimes the only cure is time and experience. I was depressed, angry, socially awkward, alone, uneducated in my early adult life. I felt like I had nothing to live for. What I have learned is the fundamental most important thing to do in life is to focus on something. Staying busy is the ultimate cure for a restless mind. When I feel anxiety, I start working. The more anxiety I feel, the harder I work. Nowadays I don't feel anxiety at all, I am calm and collected. I have established a great work ethic because of anxiety and have obtained skills that pushed me into a lifestyle I never imagined possible. I have grown into a highly capable confident person who doesn't need to rely on anyone. The most important thing about adopting this mindset is you gain purpose. I highly recommend to anyone to always use your anxiety as the driving force to focus and work. The payoff in the long term cannot be over emphasized.

[@RRaquello]

I think one of the things you gain from experience as you get older is the realization that nothing is new or exclusive.

Both reclusiveness & alcoholism for some reason have a tendency to grip a man the most post partum as I've both seen & experienced because a man is encapsulated inside his egotism & suffers an ego death and pride fall which is what really drives his spiral downwards to wanting solitary confinement & to numb the brain with the jungle juice.

I'm 38 and I have definitely been blue pilled, and I'm just coming to terms with it lately. I was a liberal, soft, romantic that would bend over backwards for my partner. I was with someone for 10 years, and a year after we got married she started an affair after hurting her back, having chronic pain and becoming depressed and a drinker. It took 2 years for me to find out about it and still tried to make it work for the next few months until she left me for a 50 year old dude who was 20 years older than her. He was already established with his own house and a 250k a year job as a construction worker. Luckily I had no children with her and next to no assets, so the divorce was easy. I've taken the time to re-evaluate my life and have made changes. I'm now a Nurse Practitioner in a private practice in Midtown Manhattan making almost 200k a year, I own a motorcycle, have a full sleeve tattoo, work out 4-5 days a week, and keep women in my frame when I go on dates. I've been much happier and much more successful, and women desire me way more than in the past. The lies of the white picket fence and family were engrained in me and now I know my reality is really just to seek and achieve excellence, and whatever comes from that is a bonus.

Adapt the mindset of "I don't have time to bleed." As a man on a mission, it's incumbent on you to get shit done. Whatever your goals are, you playing with your emotions in the corner is not getting you any closer to the objective. Stop playing with yourself and start taking positive actions toward whatever you're trying to build. There are always positive actions you can take. It's your job to know your objectives, to have a plan and to execute the plan, and to measure your variables so you can adjust the plan as circumstances change around you. You can't control everything but you should be making intelligent decisions to maximize the return on investment for how you spend your allotted 24 hours per day. It's incumbent upon you as a man to be the captain of your own ship. If the ship gets lost at sea, it's your fault and you can't blame the sea for having waves.

I am unplugged. But it took years of relationship experience to get here. Today I am happily unmarried, have no kids & no plan to change. I still date, but am very up front about not looking for an LTR or raising someone else's kids.

[@DanaDane559]

@@Ace.0.0.0. It has its ups & downs. A close friend, who is happily married, summed up my bachelor lifestyle best. He said, "I mean...yah it's unusual, but you make it work." I make it work by keeping close family & friend relationships. Dating on occasion & just enjoying the company. If I like her, I can always see her again & again! If I don't like her, I can make our 1st date our last. But mostly, I can be honest with each one about the others. No guilt!

the time will come when men learn everything about women and love relationships, I can assure you that that day the world will be made up of strong, successful and celibate men and angry, unhappy and poor women, knowing clearly about a lie teaches you how to avoid it

[@the_new_todd1982]

This post, especially the end really inspired me Surrender, accept, pivot, and move forward. These words are so simple and yet so profound and easy to stray from. Do I surrender to the truth? I cannot fight gravity. Do I accept the way of the world? I won't deny, equivocate or bury my head in the sand. I will acknowledge what is. But do I pivot? But do I pivot? If not, I condemn myself to purgatory, no relief, no end no change. Pivot is the key. Doors will open but only with the proper motivation. Expect no carling float unless you, only you, take a step over the edge of the abyss. ... And when you do you, you move forward, and life begins again.

[@kirapoodle]

Off my chest: How I wish I had someone like you growing up. A big brother or a father figure. I grew up without a father and no one taught me how to handle relationships with women. I was raised by a single mother and grandmother. My father passed away when I was 4. I am 32 and have been with some women but ALL of them have been low value, insecure women who needed saving and who needed someone to fix their lives. I improved their lives and I ended up with nothing, only wasted years. I thought I was having a fun time having sex with them but all I did was wasting my 20s on them. It makes me sad that I can't even mention one woman that I am proud of being with. Other than avoiding such women in the future, I learned nothing from them. At least I didn't have kids with them, that would've ruined my life. Thankfully I found your channel at the beginning of this year and also bought your book. It has helped me to slowly open my eyes and to also value myself more. I need to work on my self-esteem, I'm going to therapy for that, try to become a better person and surround myself with people who are worth being with.

[@mr.blademonktravels1880]

I dealt with the same kind of thing when i first started thinking with a Redpill mindset. Funny thing is it was when I was real young, but I still went through a lot before it actually sunk in.

[@175hydro]

I define the experience this emailer went through as a "paradigm shatter". Having your belief system blow out of the water is painful. You've believed something to be true for most of your life....later to be confronted with the reality it wasn't. It sucks going through this mental struggle...but once you've embrace it, you will come out the other side the better for it. I've personally went through it twice in my life. When my ex-wife walked out on me and our 3 young sons for another man and the other was my faulty religious beliefs from childhood. To those going through a paradigm shatter...I wish you all the best. You are not alone. You can and will be a better version of yourself.

[@hullbreach33]

This is one of your best videos. Absolutely great advice. To bring up some more Stoic thought: in Marcus Aurelius "Meditations", he finds himself angry at a duplicitous, immoral person in the court. He asks himself angrily "why should people like this even exist?". Then he has the epiphany "People like this MUST exist. Otherwise we would have no basis for what is good behavior". For me, that's part of accepting the world "as is". I've noticed in my almost 50 years that the unhappiest people are the ones who are mad about the world and become "activists" to change it. Also, I love that metal box below your bookshelf. Where did you get it? Thanks

I watched King Kong vs. Godzilla [2021] the other night and all that I noticed was the little girl and the scientist girl making fun of the guy calling him a coward in their sign language and laughing behind his back. This has been the Hollywood Formula since the 1980's. It just pissed me off right away. The best part of the movie was when Kong squished the bad girl in the airplane, I played that scene over and over like 6 times. 10 years ago I would not have noticed this.

[@myfatherslegacy2431]

I’ve been processing my own anger. But in that process, is the realization that I’m mostly pissed off at myself for having made bad choices, and staying too long. I believe that’s a major contributor to the break up of a relationship or red pill revelation. It’s human nature to initially look outward for someone else to blame. Maturity and wisdom however, teach us that our decisions are all we have control over. That’s why I believe the bitterness and resentment of a break up escalates to the level it does, because conscious or subconscious we are truly most pissed off at ourselves.

[@hareeba5879]

Disillusionment is inevitable when you're revising belief systems, but that's not the end of the road. You have to hit rock bottom before you can climb back up. I've always looked at it this way: you have two choices every day, regardless of what's happening in your life. 1.) Be destructive or 2.) be productive. Everything aside, being productive will always be better. Don't destroy, but build. Don't lament, but celebrate. Eventually, that behavior becomes habit and that habit becomes one's ethos.
