Allow me to clarify one thing: - In no way shape or form was I degrading the young man for asking a girl for her number. - Most men are terrified of approaching women but he had the courage to shoot his shot. - The point I was addressing was the way in which he went about it. Nothing more, nothing less. - Who knows… maybe that was his first time doing it. Either way, more power to him. Hopefully he’ll be less serious next time. Stay disciplined & playful. Lewis

Rather than ‘self development’ as such, more of these guys with high levels of influence should be encouraging men to be more self aware, intentional with their actions, and most importantly, become critical thinkers. Of course, they wouldn’t dare do such a thing because a critically thinking man wouldn’t be buying courses from men who’s sole income isn’t from what they ‘teach’ within the course, but from the selling of the course.

MATE YES. I've danced salsa and bachata for 2 years and I've thought that exact thing. When you ask a girl to dance and lead, you are setting the frame. If you go in nervous, she will feel nervous and not trust you to lead, if you go in too serious, the dance feels devoid fun and excitement. However if you ask with a smile on your face and energy, chatting and laughing while you dance, she feels that energy and feeds from it. My teachers also said the idea of men being the frame and women being the beautiful picture. Maybe it makes more sense in a masculine and feminine sense, but the masculine provides the frame and tone for the femine to blossom and bloom. You don't lead too hard or too soft, you lead with confidence and style and the partner follows flowing and making a beautiful scene following your lead. It's ok for her to lead sometimes too, but if you are the established lead for this particular dance, you have to have confidence in yourself and see it through.

I don't know if I'm a prodigy but I started learning piano almost a decade ago. In the first couple years I learned at a pretty fast pace and felt good about myself. Somewhere along the way I got very serious about it in a competitive and professional sense and it drained all the fun out of it as well as my desire to play. Lately I've been getting back into playing with the goal of getting better at it to be a piano teacher, but also trying to be more lighthearted.

I mean, I totally agree with you. If anything, pursuing anything in a "sincere, not serious" way is at the very least the most pleasant way, for everyone involved, to get/become what you "could". But I have to 1000% disagree about the implication (and the troubling lack of curiosity about where the problem actually comes from) that it is all somehow merely a (wrong) "choice" that young men are making. That they can simply turn a switch to become sincere, not serious. And most importantly, that they somehow haven't ever really been sincere, not serious. I don't think people are born "serious" (and if some are and you're suggesting they forgo their very nature, that's a whole other problem). But they learn to become serious. Not only are they bombarded with messages that they should become serious, they've likely resisted the messages until LIFE ITSELF made them understand that they should probably get serious. Everyone who enters the casino with a couple thousands to spare is going to have fun at first. But when you come to a point where all the "fun" has made you lose your life savings and your organs, "seriousness" will set in about trying to get back your losses. Likewise, I firmly believe that for young men (young people in general?), the easy-going spirit, the "sincerity" is taken away from them, not stupidly given in exchange for seriousness for no actual reason. They adopt the seriousness AFTER seeing that sincerity didn't work at all in getting anything, whether it be a girl, money, good grades. In your example about the serious person at a board game, I think it would be more accurate if that person had a gun to their head and they HAD to win to save their life. How could you reproach that person to be serious? Or at the very least, not understand that the seriousness has at least a very good reason to be there? Again, it makes sense and would be ideal for the man who just had a big breakfast to go fishing "with sincerity", to not get too attached to the results of getting fish or not, to feel that they could get fish without feeling that they should. But what about that same man if 2 weeks later, they are now starving because they still haven't got any fish at all? Is it really their own fault that they've now become "serious" about getting fish? We rarely go "seriously" into any endeavor at first (and certainly not life itself, in my opinion), but it's incredibly short-sighted to not see that so many people get burned into becoming serious because the alternative(s) haven't worked out, at all.

I believe in a balanced approach that integrates sincerity with a sense of responsibility and seriousness. Rather than treating these aspects separately, it's crucial to understand that authenticity and personal responsibility go hand in hand, shaping a fulfilling and purpose-driven life. The comment mentioned how sincerity, while valuable, may not always yield the desired results, prompting individuals to become serious in their pursuits. This shift often occurs when faced with responsibilities that demand a more focused and determined approach. For example, imagine someone whose livelihood depends on fishing. While fishing can be a recreational activity enjoyed with sincerity and joy, when it becomes a means of sustenance, it requires a serious mindset. In this context, the goal shifts from mere enjoyment to securing food and livelihood, emphasizing the importance of results. It's about finding a balance where one remains true to their authentic self while acknowledging and fulfilling responsibilities effectively. This means approaching tasks with sincerity and dedication, understanding that certain endeavors require a serious commitment to achieve desired outcomes. Living authentically doesn't mean disregarding responsibilities or treating life casually. Instead, it's about being genuine in one's actions while also recognizing the gravity of responsibilities and the need for a serious approach when necessary. This integrated approach allows individuals to navigate life with purpose, authenticity, and a sense of fulfillment, ensuring that they live in alignment with their values and aspirations. well this is take, and i use ai for help to refine my english emz

Mentioned how sincerity may not always yield the desired results, leading individuals to become serious. While I agree that sincerity shouldn't be dismissed, it's essential to recognize that certain responsibilities require a serious mindset. For instance, when a person's livelihood depends on fishing, they must approach it with the goal of catching fish for sustenance, not just as a playful activity. This balance ensures that one doesn't neglect the importance of results while still maintaining authenticity in their actions.

I think I’m dating the point is not to go at it from a scarcity mindset because the lends itself to desperation which isn’t attractive. Same with interviewing for a job.

You say this but for the whole of human history most people were living in poverty for worse than what we have now, yet they still found life partners at a young age that lasted their whole lives, it seems to be a problem more of culture and attitude than anything influenced by economic factors

​@MrAKthing Objectively it can be said that modern culture sucks and is unhealthy for mind body and spirit. At the same time there is much more potential today for free choice to think and to be who you really want to be. We have much more opportunity to educate ourselves and to improve, but a lot of people find it hard to have that much integrity and humility to stop naval gazing at history and our current dilemma in the modern era to ask themselves where they effed up in life to take responsibility for themselves.

I get this, in High school, all I ever did was try to become the "man" that attracts everyone. But after the pandemic, and cutting off some toxic individuals that only reinforced this way of thinking, I realized I could be much happier if I enjoyed my true self again. I did more outside of that phase than I did within (but I do admit, it did help with my social skills since I became bold during that time). After a bad experience in a situationship a year ago or so, I decided to live carefree from expectations. So, I decided to pursue another love, my love for cars and the art of driving, to improve my current car and learn to improve my driving, even taking my car at some point on a track. I realized I'm more attuned to my steed of a machine than any form of human relationships, nothing but me and the road, the sensation of the car and the asphalt, and beyond close family and friends, my goals are even closer for me achieve, despite the muddy planning for them. Girls can come after, there are billions of them after all, and I have the time and skill to improve myself, and if I find someone I can mesh well with, there you go, but if not, I'm still okay regardless.

Thanks for this video. I had also realized something similar to this in last few days. I had lived like that serious man for the last 1.5 years. I went into this mode because I thought I will not be able to get a girlfriend. So I started to live "completely" based on how I can be attractive to women and gain status, and had to sort of kill my individualself for this. I became attractive in the beginning, even got an internship ( I am in university) but then this way of living slowly made me more and more miserable to the point I didn't feel like living at all. When I feel like dying, that's when I know something is actually really bad which helped me come out of that state. I had went all in and worked so hard people got scared if they saw how hard I worked. But I still saw some "non serious" people doing better than me with lesser effort, which was confusing I was able to talk to most people before becoming serious and during this phase , my conversation skills almost completely faded because I couldn't relate.

This is absolutely how I feel since the last year as well. I thought that by following the ideologies of "hustle 100%" (I didnt't hustle at all in this period, because I felt drained, I just watched Andrew tate and other garbage Reel content for motivation haha) I will be successful in all the aspects that were lacking in my life. Well at the end that thought process stressed me out to the point of having no appetite. Then all the well-functioning aspects of my life broke down as well. It took some bad trip smoke sessions to realize how bad that thought pattern is (I somehow like bad trip smoke sessions). But it isnt easy to break out of that year long programming and live less seriously and turn off the feeling of obligation that I need to achieve something

Obviously a Man-child, ‘pull Yerself up by the bootstraps kiddo!” Feels like boomers calling younger gens lazy for not having their first home and dream job at 16. It’s out of touch. Even if a man gets the girl, gets the abs, and gets the money. It will never be good enough. Even if you work hard to become the man that girls see as ‘good enough’ to maintain that is hard, and to fail to improve results in ‘I don’t love you anymore’ or ‘I found someone whose slightly better, see ya’ I despise being told by other dudes that I’m just not trying hard enough. When it’s hard enough just to try and dream up reasons why having any of those toy trophies are worth all of the monumental effort and cost. Whatever. Okay boomer.

This is true, I worked hard till until chronic fatique , fainted and almost died twice doing so. No matter what I from childhood to adloscence did heavy lifting to help them and neighbhours get drinking/bathing water not get in any trouble, be respectful , lighthearted etc etc. it does not matter you are always Lazy, fat (even though I was muscular and have a extremly physical 6 pack), stupid (no matter how much i study or demonstrate comphrehension and deeper thinking) until I realize its exactly that. It does not matter what you do, these people are hateful of you no matter the circumstances or how difficult things are, hating or dismiising people who are struggling or have nothing is the attribute of a psychopath. the moment I learned this made me realize how much of a ugly thing so many people are and especially as a male. people constantly pissing on you and your efforts makes accomplishing anything harder and just as you said at the end. Why even bother? why even go so far. which made me realize its best for a man to live for himself and himself only, if there are a few people you designate "descent" you can keep them around but do not be afraid to be "lazy" or whatever the things those people call you, in fact I advise you to slowly dissapear from those people with not a word. Its crazy how so many men share this similar story of no matter what you are doing is bad and you are dirt, yet media and pop culture will all gaslight them saying how its "they must CHANGE THIS, OR DO THAT AND ETC ETC its YOUR FAULT" cause its easier to dismiss and blame them for struggles than acknowledging that something is wrong. even though I doubt most men are expecting or wanting anything from them at all. I Have a friend from childhood, its the same thing .I was once afraid to ask him about his life though I had his contacts for years cause I expecting the similar answers knowing modern day and I was sadly right. Right now he worked hard worked hard got hit by a truck and need back braces and cant work anymore while they call him just that "LAZY" while he has his doctors note and is almost crippled due to spine damage. He was berrated all the time when he was working by family, men and women and when he cant anymore its he is LAZY/undesirable. In other words, forget about most people and do what you want.Why would you listen to someone who clearly demonstrate they do not care about you at all.

As someone who is very serious, this feels both very helpful and not very useful. I like being as serious as I am because I feel as if I am giving things the proper amount of respect. Doing things the right way or following the instructions. I feel as if those who are not serious are just treating life and the lives and situations of those around them, like one big joke. How can being serious make others uncomfortable? I've never experienced this in my life. The only person I know to have been made uncomfortable by my serious nature is my mother, and I just don't get how that could be the case when my behavior has nothing to do with her or others. This is just who I am. Why would anyone care? I do recognize that this behavior has caused problems for me in a multitude of ways, however, and I would love to know what can be done to change that. How do I treat things with the proper respect without acting like this? Why is the fact that I act like this such a major problem for others? Why is being serious seen as such a bad quality, while laughing at absolutely everything as if nothing matters is seen as a social good?

Like you I'm also very serious (bordering autistic levels of seriousness) from my experience it's better to act natural rather than pretend to be something you aren't. If you aren't naturally a certain way, pretending doesn't make it any more convincing. Maybe I'm just a terrible actor. I wouldn't recommend it anyway. I'm assuming we would have to undergo a slow and long process of changing our personality slowly and with great effort, or wait until someone appreciates you for you, whichever comes first.

Seriousness is not bad, they're just applying it the wrong way. Seeing seriousness as an expressionless facade or somewhat an external state of being is a very immature view some of these men have. I agree with the things you've said; consider this, when the plus one one in the party was invited, he could be serious about having fun, which is the point of the party, it's not a competitive setting, so he could do things that maximize the fun, including letting himself relax. I guess my point is that they take the meaning of seriousness too on the nose.

Being "unapologetically yourself" and being "notoriously fun" have no particular relationship, however. In the example of dancing, I could be unapologetically myself by refusing to bother. Or by treating the whole thing as a joke and looking down on the people who care enough to find my disrespect grating. Or by incessantly starting conversations about pole barn construction methodology. Or by flippantly requesting music more to my taste, which is incidentally not appropriate for dancing. All of these would be purely and utterly sincere. Guileless and authentic in the plainest possible way. They would, however, be at least as far removed from "notoriously fun" as your example of a stiff and serious fellow. And I dare to suggest they would not be regarded as particularly appealing to the fairer sex. I leave it as an exercise to extend much the same reasoning to the board game example, which fares no better I assure you. The advice to "just be yourself," in all its forms, has been fatally flawed for generations. It assumes that your inherent nature is gregarious, attractive and seductive - thereby, if you just relax and do what is authentic to your personality, your behavior will effortlessly become gregarious, attractive and seductive. But alas, these personality traits come naturally to relatively few people. Many of us struggle with a nature that is anxious, cold, competitive or in a hundred other ways not fit for purpose. Being sincere will counter-productively emphasize these unappealing traits. In your case specifically, being sincere in this video made you come across as vacuous.

Hey man, really good content, love the "don't stay there", was a neat touch. I see it as basically coming down to learning how to be present, there are areas of our lives where seriousness or "play", lets call, is required in a particular moment and being able to decipher between which is appropriate to act out, I believe to be the essence to solving this. Being present makes this process simpler since we interact with our immediate enviroment without being stuck in our heads. (easier said than done)

Hm... maybe he didn't approach it right, but I'd still give him points for trying. :) We don't know what the man's been through so we cannot judge his actions. Maybe he's just unlucky that day. The biggest barrier to connection is a feeling of danger. Women are a lot more suspicious than men because they are vulnerable to abuse. Your colleague must've been caught off-guard not only because he was so serious, but because it was a very unusual encounter. This may have gone down differently if she was at a party and the man was introduced to her via another friend. I suspect those circumstances would've been a lot more favourable to him.

I get confused by the manosphere's messages. I already understand the need to strive for excellence because I read Nietzsche. But how do I do it? More material possessions or more pussy are not enough to fulfil my life. Young men today are deprived of wealth and women, it's true. But defining our lives and masculinities with wealth and pussy is overcompensation. We just need some wealth and one woman

I won't tell you to find God, because that will likely fall on deaf ears, but my advice is find a purpose higher than yourself to live for. You will die one day. All your accomplishments will mean nothing when your body is rotting in the ground. Everyone you have ever met and shared experiences with; they will be dead as well. You will not reach the end of your life and say "I wish I did more hobbies" or "I wish I worked more". Ask yourself the deep questions. What is thepurpose of my life? What is the purpose of everything around me? Why am I here? And anyone who tries to sell you nihilism and materialism, I will warn you that these modes of thinking will rot you out from the inside out. Don't fall for the facade of many who claim to be stoics. I have seen that illusion shatter time and time again, and it's not pretty. Just some nuggets of wisdom from someone who wasted his 20's doing just that. Take care and be well. 🙏

@@coup-de-grace I'm already in agreement with this. But I don't think this advice is sufficient. Everyone already knows deep down about the advantages of having a greater purpose to dedicate your life to. The question is how to figure out what, and how to figure it out as young as possible. I honestly don't know and I wish there would be more focus on this

@@captainclarky5352 Ah, I see! See, I'm in the exact predicament. I live for God, but God doesn't exactly come down from the clouds and tells you "Do this!" It seems what he wants is for us to try different things and discover it on our own. Maybe that's part of the fun of life. Well, first questions first. Are you the kind of dude who wants to live a balanced life and have a skill he is competent at, but also have a family and a social life, or are you the kind of dude who wants to dedicate himself obsessively to one thing and become the best at it? Don't pick the answer that sounds good, to you or to society. Be honest.

@@normanosborn1277 Yes, some people are like that. No need to really change. he does not understand that his message encompassess some men who are just not like that. some personality type or men do not like to smile and are generally serious which is not a bad thing and actually comes with a lot of deeper or unique qualities. Not everyone needs to be a laughing clown, and I say that as a person who laugh and joke around a lot though I only do this to get along and use it as a way to diverse from how I actually think about people and things at time.

I am an introvert, if I just be myself I would never meet women, only do things I want, and spend my life content but feeling half empty. I adopted this thing I call "putting on confidence" where I pretend to myself I that I am this highly confident and capable young man. Works really well, until I inevitably have to drop the mask. So I cannot "just be yourself" and I cannot just be who I want to be. I have now been exploring Jordan Peterson's 12 rules for life, and Carl Junge's idea of the shadow and persona to see if there is anything of value in there for me.

This actually goes so well with the idea of the harder you try the worse it gets, what I have seen in my life is there is no such thing as going in hard, there is something called, "The required amount of effort" for whatever you are trying to achieve. I have seen that more often then not when we try to hard over anything then we get more caught up with our own selves more then the thing which we are trying to achieve or do

My problem with people who interact with the world trying to live everyday like they are dying: this perspective gives said person a reason to justify screwing someone else over because "it doesn't really matter in the scheme of things, we're all going to die." Meanwhile, you've shirked responsibility and the consequence is that another person has to clean up your mess or deal with the thing you were too busy not taking seriously to deal with yourself. And I'm not talking about major events or anything, I'm talking about mundane, everyday unimportant things that become problems when they are neglected, or even just doing your job to the best it can possibly be done.
