 And welcome back to the 21 convention 2019 of Orlando, Florida, 18th edition of our event, final the decade and of the year. Our next speaker is a former professional heavyweight boxer, fighter and athlete. A powerful chest enthusiast and holds a master's in physics. He also produces the Twitter's most savage crackhead tweets. Without further ado, please let me welcome to the stage, Lottemore. Welcome back, sir. Good morning, good morning, good morning to everyone. Thank you for being here. Love you guys all. So before we jump into my speech, I want to tell you and give you kind of a story about how I got to this topic. I remember I was thinking, what in the world am I going to talk about? What am I going to follow up to my last speech with when I spoke, not in Poland, but I spoke here last year in Orlando. And it was really bugging me and then I had this brilliant idea that I got when I was hanging out in Poland and I was seeing all these white girls with long hair and thin waist. I was like, why don't I talk about the future of the intersexual market from what we learned in black America. And I started working on that. It was a really cool topic. I was like, yeah, this is going to be dope, man. And I started working on it. I was like, man, it really got dark, man. It really got heavy, really quick. And I was like, man, maybe I don't want to talk about this. I started out with an analogy to the Tuskegee experiments. And anyone who knows about that, it was going to go, it was going to probably depress you. Not a good way to start the day. So I kind of shelved that one and I didn't know where to go. And then I said, you know what? Let me just do what I know. Let me talk about red pill stuff. Love red pill stuff. Kind of visible face. I can get away with saying some stuff. It'll be cool. And I started putting that together and I realized it was really safe and really kind of cliched. And I didn't want to do that either. So I just let that sit too. I put the slides together. I came up with it. It was working out okay, but didn't want to go with it. And then I'm packing up to move. And I bought this Matrix collection of DVDs like two years ago. I actually went out to buy the DVD. I just wanted to see the Matrix, man. I'm like a slow adapter. Instead of streaming it, I went and tried to buy the DVD. And the guy was like, we don't have the DVD, but we got this collection set. And it had all seven of the Matrix movies. There's seven of them, you know, stuff that wasn't released. Plus a bobblehead, man. I couldn't pass it up and it was only $20. So I took it and it sat there for two years, didn't watch any of it. And then finally I said, let me watch this before I get rid of it so I can move without carrying it. And I started watching and I said, wow. It's the first time I've seen a movie in like six, seven years, maybe longer than that. And I said, there is a lot of stuff in here that's really relevant. And it's caused a lot of what I've been thinking about. I really wanted to say and express to guys to really be useful to them. And so that's where this topic came from. The Matrix, the Red Pill and the game. The game. Not the game, as you'll see that everyone's familiar with when we're talking about, you know, going out and meeting girls and picking up women and all that good stuff. No, it is an even bigger game we're all playing. So let's jump right into this. The basic idea of the Red Pill is a little refresher for you guys. The Red Pill is the idea that there's one way society wants you to think things work. But the reality is far different. You take the Red Pill not so much when you accept the new way, but when you accept that the old way is false. Everyone has some event in their life that brought them here or put them on a path to where they're familiar with the content out there. For a lot of us, it's our experience in the dating market. We discover, you know, for example, cliches, buy flowers, pay for dates, be a nice guy. It doesn't work. That's what we've been told. That's what society wants us to think. And then we see it works another way. You know, you get Red Pill through your relationship experience, some of us through the legal system. And you are shocked. And one of my favorite quotes is the justice is a middle class concept. The poor know different and the rich know differently, but for different reasons. And some of us have a run-in with the law and we get Red Pill about the way the legal system works, or the way hiring works, you know, where you get a job because you know somebody, all the good jobs are never advertised. You get them because you know someone, right? But we're all exposed one way or the other to the general idea that things are not as they seem. And from that, we see how it works in everywhere else. And that's, you know, our moment. We take the Red Pill and then you go through the stages. You get mad. Why is it so unfair? Why is it like this? And then you accept it and then you can do nothing about it. And then you start to put it to your advantage and you go, okay, I'm no longer in grade. It's just how things work. That's a basic condensed version of, you know, our kind of stages of Red Pill awareness and development. But that is our basic idea here. It's key that you remember that. You take that pill one day. And the matrix. What is the matrix? I'm not going to go through all that long quote. You guys can read it if you can see it. But if not, the basic idea is if you've ever seen the movie and there's that scene where Morpheus is explaining to Neil what the matrix is and he's letting him know that it's all around you. It's everywhere you look, every person you talk to, everything. You breathe in everything that is put out to influence your mind of one or the other. And no matter how aware you are of this, once you take that Red Pill, no matter how aware you are of this, every other person, because they're also aware of it, they are your enemy. And they're not your enemy because they hate you. They're your enemy because they are so dependent on the way the system has trained them to think that you cannot exist. You show them that there is a different way, but they're not ready to accept that way. And a lot of us have had this experience as well. This is one of the things I talked about last year in my speech. I told stories about my life and a lot of people resonated with that. But where I came to these conclusions about how these things work, and I try to express them and live that way, and just the mere act of living that way, of being that way, brings out so much ire from people. Because you have to remember something. We look at the world through our own experiences. Everything is filtered through what we know. And that sounds obvious, but consider the implication of this. This means that if you are successful in the way you live, and I am successful in the way I live, but we have completely different ideologies, if you do not have a mature, developed way to look at the world, one of us has got to be very wrong. You're not going to look at yourself and go, well, it's working out for me. I'm wrong. I'm wrong. No, the other person's got to be wrong and the other person can't exist. One of the experiences I dealt with, this was actually before the last 21com back in June, was speaking in New York, and I'm sharing a stage with one of the more controversial figures, Mike Cernovic, and I write about it and put it out there, because that's what I do. I like to write. I got to promote these things, right? And friends start messaging me, telling me they can't be my friend anymore. I can't believe you're going to share a stage with Mike, giving this guy credibility. I'm like, first of all, Mike's bigger than me. How am I giving him credibility? But the point is that the mere fact that I was living different and trying to be different and think different and express myself the way I wanted to, because they didn't like the way I was doing it, I could no longer be their friend. I couldn't exist in their world, because for me to exist in their world, they would have to reconcile success that doesn't look like their success and is a rob that in a different way. So you have to remember this something. When you do this, when you take your pill, when you start seeing the world the way you want to see the world and you start seeing it how it really works, there will be people who will attack, shun, outcast you, because there's no way you can really be successful. Of course not. And since that's not going to change, they have to get rid of you. So remember that when you're dealing with everyone around you, if they are not awake, they are asleep. And it's unfortunate to look at it that way, but that's just the reality, but it's a bit binary this way. And then the last part, once you take the pill, once you are aware that you're in the matrix, then you're in the game. Now you can really start playing. Once you've taken the red pill and recognized that you're living in the matrix, only then you get to play the game. And until then, you're just participating. I'm going to dig into this a little later, but I need you to remember something. Everybody is playing the game. You don't get to sit out the game, you can't take some plays off, you can't say, all right, that's it, go home, no. You're in it. And you either are actively making moves, or you're on the sideline, or you're just a participant. But more the other year in this game, you're playing it. And we're going to dig more into that game with the rules of that game on how to win that game. So what exactly is that game? I love that meme, by the way. The NPC meme. I don't know if you guys can see what some of these things are. There's our God resisting, and everyone's saying, why are you so angry, Nazi, and your children need to be aborted, your nation needs replacement, this is natural, your sons need hormone therapy. And when I found this meme, by the way, when I was putting this beat together, that case not happened in Texas, where the father was told that he's got to give his son the hormone therapy. And so I looked back at this when I was putting it together, and I was like, wow, it happens. I'm just putting things together kind of a flavor to make a point. But then reality starts to reflect art, and that is a very dark path of going down. But this game is a game of influence. That's what everyone is playing for. They're not, they're playing for your mind. They're playing to get you to think a certain way, to get you to believe certain things, to accept certain things as fact. Because once you accept these things, you don't have to be forced to do something. No one has to force you to eat like garbage if you believe the garbage is good for you. No one has to force you to be subservient in the lay down if you believe that's the best way to do it. So instead of trying to move you by force, and I really believe that in this country, in many countries, most of us would severely resist someone trying to forcefully make us do a thing. The next best thing they have to do, they have to get you to think a certain way. They have to change what you believe. They have to make you see the world one way. They have to keep you plugged in. They have to keep you as a participant in the game without a player. Now, once you start playing the game, there's only two outcomes. You wonder you lose. But the matter of fact that you're playing this, you're not really going to lose anyway. A lot of people think there's a third option, to go back in. Can you really go back in? Oh, before we get that out, I forgot there are some examples that I brought up of things that they are trying to get you to think. That dad bought me and just keeps coming up. And it is hilarious to me because I feel like I'm going to, all of these things I've found, I feel like I'm going to sigh out a lot of times where I'm looking and I go, this is just not accurate. No one in the right mom would think these things are true or if you do think they're false, present an argument that's approached these things rationally, but it appears that rational thought has gone away to dinosaurs, certainly with the majority of people who exist on the internet and write these things. So we're trying to be told that dad bots are attractive or that there's this gender pay gap across you take two people and compare the exact same work and we're being told that that is a thing, a gap, and we know that really they've worked the math out a certain way to make a certain point and you bring these things up and it blows your mind. I remember, you know, I watch TV, right? Everyone watches a little TV. And I remember I was a really big fan when he first started, I was a really big fan of John Oliver. And, you know, he made me laugh, he made me think of points, he explored some cool things. I learned some stuff watching John Oliver. And then John Oliver did a segment on the wage gap and I'm looking at this and I was like, wow, this is crazy. Here's a guy that is intelligent and has this influence in platform and I don't have a feeling about it either way, I just look at the numbers and I'm like, oh, you have, and there were so many talking points. The NPC talking points, they were just regurgitated. The difference is it was regurgitated via an audience of over 10 million people and proud Tom. It's not the same as when we sit here and we tell you the truth and at best, you know, 200 people in the room and maybe 100,000 people watching my speech on YouTube and beyond my little D-list celebrity status on the internet. No one really knows who I am but you have the big celebrities who espouse these things and they present the math that is not accurate and that has a real influential effect and that is the game that's being played. You either accept that and you state plug them or you resist it and you spark the ire of everyone else who believes it. We feel it out a lot. I feel like everyone in this room has experienced the isolation that comes with the way we think and live and believe. One man found men who do housework sexy. This was interesting because this is still out there, right? But not as... There's some kickback. I was just looking this morning and finally someone was like and it was on the Daily Mail so I guess that's credible enough in terms of widespread influence and not as saying, you know, guys who do more chores are getting less sex and I'm like, okay, well, we knew that so where's the switch coming from, right? And then because not all examples are intersexual you can be red-pilled about almost anything. It's just, you know, there are rules within that particular subcategory niche. The burned areas of the Amazon could take centuries to recover and I remember I'm looking at people talk about the forest fires and me being the rational person that I am, I said, well, I don't know anything about the Amazon. So let me go Google this. Let me research. Let me educate myself. Let me educate myself. Before I have a reaction, this is what most people don't do, they're plugged in and they just go with what the matrix says. And I'm looking, you know what I found out? I found out that this is a relatively tame year for forest fires and forest fires happen all the time in the Amazon and they for whatever, I don't know the agenda of the politics behind it but I do know that whenever a lie is presented so powerfully and there's so much energy put in to making sure that people understand and believe and pay attention to it, I know that there's something that they want us to think, want us to believe there's some way they want us to move that's going to influence everyone. And influence everyone's decisions in a way that is going to make it easier for us to lay down and be able to move to where we see these things. I could have pulled up other examples just thinking off top of my head right now I remember looking at the whole the kid that I guess got in the face of the Indian guy up there in Washington with the Trump hat on and they broke it down but the breakdown doesn't get any player any attention because the breakdown is not popular. The breakdown doesn't fuel a narrative and whatever that narrative is, they're trying to get you to go along with it. Now, before I was interrupted by the examples that I put up I was talking about can you really go back I told you guys I watched The Matrix man there's some brilliant stuff in there and one of my favorite scenes is when Cypher's trying to go back in The Matrix. Now I remember Neo tells him at the beginning he tells everyone he says you know once you take this pill and I said you can't go back. Once you know it you can't I know it you can't go back to believe in the nonsense and what they do in the movie they have a character that tries to go back into The Matrix and he's like once I go back in you know I want to be someone famous and I know this steak isn't real but I want I want all that you know but here's the thing once you know this stuff you can't I know it once you're in the game you can't check out man what's that line in Hotel California man you can check out but you can't really leave that's how it is you can decide to be steamrolled but you can't get out the game once you're aware of it everyone wants to be free and today realize how much it's going to take that burden we'll talk more about that burden later but once you become aware that this world is not friendly to your autonomous ambitions your ideas being free you have no other choice but to be free from you and to resist and to try to make the best you can out of it but some people they want to go back in and you can't go back in but the people who want to go back in are most likely not going to take the pill anyway this burden of awareness you can't throw up the red pill once you know something you can't know once you see how these things work you know so many of us wish we didn't understand the true nature of the sexual market sometimes I think we go through a phase anyhow where we wish we didn't know that because when you're when you're ignorant of something you can just say you didn't know and you can blame your confusion or your lack of knowledge or as opposed to your lack of effort but you can't do that anymore you can't go in and you can't stop playing another quote from that I am going to read this quote I don't know if you guys can see it once again right there but he goes you know Cypher when he's talking to Neo and Neo's just looking through the matrix code with him at night one day and they're sitting there drinking this kind of moonshine thing Cypher goes I know what you're thinking because right now I'm thinking the same thing actually I've been thinking it ever since I got here why or why did I take the blue pill or why didn't I take the blue pill fortunately we don't meet many people like this in our daily going abouts in our in this conference for example there's not going to be anyone at least I really hope so and believe so that there's not going to be anyone who's like goodness goodness goodness I wish it was different we've all accepted that it is what it is and we're not trying to go back but what I love about that character is it shows how weak I mean to do it he was willing to betray his friends and kill everyone and sell out the entire movement just so he could have it easier and trade it in and that's something to really think about now how do you win this game once you are out of the matrix once you've taken that pill you're now playing the game for those of you who don't know that's biggie and he's holding the commandments he's holding the ten crack commandments and he says at the end at the beginning of the song I've been in this game for years it made me an animal there's rules to this shit I wrote me a manual a step by step booklet for you to get your game on track not your wig pushed back before you guys not familiar with slaying wig pushed back eye gets shot in the brain but the whole point is from experience in playing that harsh game selling drugs he figured out how to survive until he didn't but different story well it wasn't killed it's selling it was killed in rat beef but the whole idea is he figured out there's certain ways to play this game and there's certain rules you have to abide by if you want to be successful and we all want to be successful in this game we don't want to go back we don't want to deal with whether we don't want to succumb to the pressure that comes from this lifestyle and it comes from accepting that the world is not what it is because I always say for example I get to share my face so that everyone else doesn't have to that's the cost to do a business I've decided that people can look at me I can take the hate mob I can take the ire whatever right and I try to be like race call whatever to like protect myself but who cares right no one really cares because I'm still a god and I'm still free and they don't even care about the idea that everyone should be able to think differently but the point of me bringing that up is that I've decided to play the game to win and I don't have a choice and once you step over once you put your ideas out there once you put your thoughts out there once you start living a certain way it might take a little while if you're not too vocal or it might happen instantly but you will eventually have to make a choice and that choice is going to be to step into the arena to start playing and I want you to be able to play the game and win the game well so you can't stop playing the game the game always gets paid the game is to be sold not to be told there is only the game you can't shortcut the game and you can't cheat the game you can't stop playing the game I talked about this at the beginning but I'm going to go into it until the day you die they're going to be fighting to influence you whether you decide to have kids go your own way be a player whatever you want to do whether you go corporate whether you write on your own you entertain you serve they are always going to be playing to influence you because every single person when I say they I mean the collective agenda that is going to appease the masses I think that's the best way to put it because if everyone believed that men should be strong and independent and go out there and build stuff we had a writer passage that made that took us from boyhood to manhood and developed us into capable guys that weren't drinking soy lattes and taking cat pics and I love my cats but I take cat pics too I guess what I was thinking there's like this meme I don't know if you've seen it with the guy in the pajamas and he's got a cat and a latte and I'm like man you're giving cat guys a bad name but the whole point is that if the overriding agenda was that men have to be men then this probably wouldn't exist this convention probably wouldn't exist but that's not the overriding agenda so you have to decide which side you're going to be on are you going to be in the majority and follow what they think and hope things work out if you play about those rules but you've already looked down that path you've already seen that those rules aren't going to work certainly not for what's going to make you happy it might make you make it easier isn't you don't have to deal with stress you don't have to deal with attacks you don't have to deal with figuring things out on your own but they're not going to make you happy or you do things like this you consume content like this you come to events like this you meet like-minded guys like this and you build up your position so you can play the game more effectively and you can win that way but no matter what you can't stop playing and I don't want you guys everything you can stop playing one of the things that always struck me when I was big into the pickup community we were just talking about that in the back I think a lot of guys certainly guys that were in their 20s in the 2000s a lot of us cut our teeth on the game and pickup and the David DiAngelo and the cocky funny DVD some of you guys were like yeah and I was in a lair too and I was like hey man not hating I was part of all that but one of the things I took from that this idea you never are out at the sexual marketplace you get married or you have a girl you always have to play the game you still got a game heard but the game in general you still have to be an attractive guy you just have to work you never get to take up or you never get to let up off the gas pedal it's the same with your life some of you guys reach a point and they just said okay I've arrived I've got my $80,000 a year job not a terrible shape and life was good I got a few guys to watch the game with and the next thing you know 10 years goes by and having a midlife crisis and I think that's why we have a midlife crisis we think we can stop playing the game and we get that joke man the game is still going on and we're out of it and we're paying for it so I don't want you guys to ever stop playing the game because you can't really stop playing the game the game always gets paid we're going to laugh at me but in full metal alchemists they've got the three rules of alchemy and the first law is the law of equivalent exchange humankind cannot gain anything first without giving up something in return to obtain something of equal value to obtain something of equal value must be lost the game always gets paid what do I mean by that how does that quote reflect that you know that to be strong and to resist the forces of society you need to be financially stable you need to be healthy you need to have a strong network of like-minded individuals and those things aren't free they take work no one just gets to show up at the dinner table we might kick you some scraps every now and then but if you want to sit down if you want to die with us if you want to feast with kings well we want to see what you've been working on we want to see what you've been doing to earn a spot we want you to earn your own spot we want you to host the dinner one day the same people can't always host the dinner we're going to die one day and we need people to take the place our place some guys here are learning some guys are here late to the game they recognize that once you're in the game you've got to give something up to get better at it you've got to put the hours in you've got to put the hours in you've got to put the effort in and you've got to put the time in because all it is is to make sure that you can resist and there is only the game that's Game of Thrones man minus the last season it was okay it was pretty good I liked it it was invested but what I loved about that show is the theme of influence and control the whole time you're stripping away that's better everyone wanted power power over their environment some themes of power of yourself but really it was power of other people and I think that's the second I don't even think power of other people is important I think it all starts with power of yourself but a lot of your and I'll put this in air quotes enemies people not on your side they want power and control over you the only way you can resist that is that power and control over yourself you cannot abdicate that power you cannot hand it off you cannot hope someone is going to take care of you you're out the matrix you now know that they're trying to pull you back in and no one's going to help you there will be people to support you there will be people who will show you the way but you're going to have to do it yourself you're going to have to put the work in you're going to have to give up those things to get something to buy you back so you can play this game the only game there is and that is that game of influence when you have a strong position you're very difficult to influence and that's what I want everyone to have a strong position you can't cheat the game some of my hardcore nerds are going to recognize that if you don't, if you're too cool that's the infamous Konami cheat code that showed up in Contra in a bunch of video games back in the 90s and Contra was the 30 life code you got 30 lives and with 30 lives if you couldn't beat the game you just need to stop playing Nintendo but you can't cheat the game there are no shortcuts one of the big examples I think about are the gods who think that they can just pose with a car or something and make a few statements online about how I made this bit of money or I started this kind of business with a game of influence and a following now it comes from a real life and real experience it's like trying to meet a girl and you talk to her you dress nice you fit the part you look good but you're sleeping on the floor you're trying to cheat the game you haven't done the real works you're trying to get the rewards at the end good news is health is a little more difficult to do this but you see it all the time man every now and then when I'm feeling like torturing myself I watch something called my 600 pound life if you can't guess what that's about and you have people in my 600 pound life who let themselves get to 600 pounds you gotta try first of all to get there and even then you probably ain't got the genetics to do it but they let themselves get to 600 pounds and then decide they want to get surgery weight reduction and the ones that go through with it they fail they end up gaining a weight back a lot of them don't even qualify because they can't even get to that point you see these shortcuts and the way people try to cheat the game and they try to overstep that first or that second law the game always gets paid you cannot overstep that law if you want to have a better position in life if you want to have the influence if you want to live this life and this life is hard because it's the life where you have a burden of awareness you gotta put the work in and never stop putting the work in you can't cheat the game there are no Konami cheat codes for you so what happens now once you do all this you know when I first seen this scene at the end of the matrix it was a famous scene I was 13 or 14 I think when it came out and I just thought it was really cool I said wow man this guy can stop bullets after doing all the kung fu and I think he flies away wow man he's like a super saan when I watched it again a few weeks ago it took on a completely different meaning to me Nio what are you trying to tell me that I can dodge bullets and more if he says no Nio what I'm trying to tell you is that when you're ready you won't have to there will always be a struggle in this game but one thing is gonna happen and it's a really cool thing that happens if you keep at it if you keep being you you no longer have to repel you no longer have to argue you no longer have to deal with people who are trying to cut you down and put you back in they don't even try to attack you they look at you and go that's not somebody whose path I want to cross that's not someone whose level I'm on that's not someone who's even going to entertain my nonsense one of the best things that happened to me is that people stopped arguing I remember I was making little changes and I started really getting out there and putting my face and doing things you know I'd get the kick back from people in my old life on Facebook cause there's always people who knew you and they're like what's going on it's so different now and that kick back happened and that change happened but as I kept at it a funny thing happened they stopped interacting with me they stopped commenting I had someone invite me to their wedding and then in a week after I went to the wedding we were no longer friends on Facebook haven't heard from them since and it doesn't bother me one bit it's a long time friend it doesn't bother me one bit I bring it up to make a point at some point I know it's hard I know that you get beat down defending the life that you've chosen the choices you've chosen the thoughts you have that gets exhausting but eventually what happens is you find enough like mine you think I have to explain why I think here it was the feast of war what I haven't thrown last week I think I have to explain what I think and believe there you think God's a question that I'm improving myself you think God's are arguing me about why I'm with the same woman for now seven years because it comes from all parts people who are not in that game community right people are always going to try and get you to think of certain things but after a certain point they see the conviction that you have in your life and the way you live and they're like we're not going to deal with that God we're not going to try and argue with that God his frame, his life his reference his internal reference point is so strong and so on point that we're either going to get on his page or the game is a sovereign individual we're not going to interact with them at all at that point you're not dodging bullets anymore you don't have to and that's the end I left some time for questions line up if you have any testing testing can you hear me? I can hear you awesome thank you so much for that speech that was great there was a quote that really spoke to me to obtain something of equal value something must be lost I'm in sales right now I'm in car sales currently and I'm doing about average production per month but I'm living a good lifestyle outside of that I'm lifting weights, I'm looking good I'm going out with women I'm enjoying myself but I know I can do better I'm happy but I'm not satisfied how do I know what price to pay but still live a great lifestyle so what you're talking about is optimization or at least that's how I'm interpreting because you're not struggling you're not at a rock bottom point but you think and you believe you can do more you're not content here's what I'll say to you today when you are not content the disc content is going to drive you automatically I can't make you more ambitious there's no cheat code for that but what I can say is that what works for me a lot of times no life is perfect if you always are looking at what you enjoy what is good about it then you don't have any reason to change if I wake up every day and I see how sunny it is and I focus on the and I'm a really big gratitude positivity motivation kind of dude has its place when things are going well and I'm like let me coast and let me keep myself from feeling down about something but if I'm trying to go to the next level I gotta look at okay this is not on point this is not what I know I can do we'll use body fat for example because that's just the last thing I was working on if I get on if I run the whole DEXA scan and I come back at 14% at 34 years old that is fantastic period and if I take that attitude why would I work harder I gotta look and go that is bullshit I can do better and I want to do better because that's the standard I want to hold for myself so what you have to do is will yourself pass your emotions kind of because your emotions are really happy right now you got a good life but you gotta go okay it's good but I want more I'm getting $100,000 $150,000 and that's the thing you know how to get there but are you willing to give up the other good stuff too that's the thing because to get more you're gonna have to maybe you lose one night with a girl maybe it's a gym session you gotta sacrifice maybe not maybe you gotta step outside your comfort zone but the point is to sum this up is you have to lean on the discomfort and use discipline and yourself to ignore the good stuff and just work there you go appreciate it thank you no problem I appreciate your speech as well so here's my question across the roads so I've been practicing law for 15 years now working corporate health care stuff Fortune 100 company making good money but kind of what I found myself grappling with is moving forward do I want to take this new red pill awareness and try to be the virus working within that system to change it especially since that that field is like a 90-10 split left to right on a good day and so do I have more potential to influence and change things there or should I just say okay that's kind of a lost cause and watch that particular Titanic sink and take what I know and go do other things with it okay so once again man it sounds like it runs counter to a lot of things I'm about but it doesn't fuck them just let them go and here's why because people don't you don't come to this but by like someone else's invitation this is the one party that no one comes to by someone else's invitation the invitation is trauma is pain is something unpleasant but it is not via someone else's suggestion and you're not going to it's going to bring your head against the wall trying to get other people to change and think and move the way you want to instead what you do is this is what I am very much about now we go back to what seems more in line what I say you work on building yourself up you work on building you and doing what you feel best and in doing so you're going to attract like-minded people and you're going to repel different-minded people and in that way look some institutions by the very nature of how they exist and the the alignment they have with capitalism they are not going that change ain't never going to happen all of a sudden Hollywood is going to go red no it's going to go right that ain't happening but we're not trying to change Hollywood we're trying to build a life that we're proud of and that we enjoy and when you do that you don't care about the law firm the law firm can't touch you the law firm can't argue with you they're bullets you don't have to dodge anymore and if you decide then you're going to feel comfortable and confident and do something else and there's always somebody who thinks like you or at least close enough to where you're going to feel comfortable you find those people but to answer your question directly there is nothing you can do to change such a large structure just with your on your own like that the best thing you can do is work on yourself your thing and then as that happens as that change happens you're naturally going to feel the urge maybe you'll feel pulled to stay maybe you will want to leave but either way you're going to follow what's true to you and you're going to be happy because at the end of the day man you're going to die and you don't want to die thinking about all this energy you put in a change and a thing that didn't change anyway instead you can really improve your life quite a few notches and your internal state contentment happiness whatever that new age jargon is but how you feel about yourself thanks so my question is basically so you talked a lot about how you cannot cheat the game like for example you talked about that 600 pound guy who can't just like that's cheating with with the live with the sir with the tummy hergery yes so with that being said how do you know kind of like what to kind of work on to like fix it like would you recommend more like experience as a good teacher of something or like kind of going through the internet like how do you kind of know what to kind of change to like like to get the outcome that you want okay so there's a really simple condo I guess heuristic or set of guidelines your health your wealth and your relationships your money your your body how you feel your you know and your connection to other people those are the three you know pillars that a happy life is built on so everything that everything that you do should be about getting into the best shape slash become the best looking version of yourself that you can be they typically overlap if you do them correctly and you don't try to cheat the game which stuff like steroids or cosmetic surgery and implants but if you do it the right way yeah you should get healthy and stronger and look better you focus on build relationships with not with men right find your brotherhood like here and also figure out however you work man look not everybody's going to be built like me and want to grow and everyone's going to be built like Pat and they're going to you know get married or something some guys man they're going to be happy just living the feel life man figure out what that is for you and you know maybe there's some iterations man you go through one phase you straight heat in this thing man the other phase you know five years who knows but figure out what it is for you it makes you happiest and then get your money game right because at the end of the day if you don't have money you're going to be a slave to someone that does have money and they're going to use you to further their agenda that's one of the ways they keep people trapped man I really believe that if you are dependent on somebody to kick you $20 an hour as long as you don't say the wrong thing do the wrong thing post some even slightly off-color on social media yeah you know it's only a matter of time for you start to believe whatever they tell you to think and they don't have to explicitly go do this don't do that nah they just fire people to do and you sit there and look and go huh that's crazy or they have these speeches or whatever or these memos in the office and you look and go huh that's kind of crazy I can't wear that hat to work no more I voted for Trump but it's just a hat I can't do that so to sum it up get your health correct and you never stop working on these you can always make a relationship you can always better and deeper you can always make yourself healthier and stronger you can always make sure that your finances are improving you won't be I mean that's the practical application of the analogy that I use that's how you get to the point where you're really dodging bullets to have those three things in order and then you can decide how you want to think and how you want to move no problem that's all the time we got guys that's all the time we have give it up one more time for a lot more thank you
