 Before going any further I want to talk a little bit about purpose and goals of the talk. The purpose of my work that I've stated for about half a decade now is to actualize the ideal man. This is very serious for me and it's a follow-up to what I and Rand did which is depicting the ideal man with her work and her art. To actualize as well means to make actual, to make real and with the ideal man that is to make the best version of yourself real here and now on this earth in your life. I've done some distant future now, whether that's with dating, your health, your fitness, your relationships, your wealth and so on. The secondary purpose of my work that fuels into the first is to build a universe for him to accomplish this with each individual man. And this started with me. I started this company not even as a business, we'll get into that, but I started out of a very selfish and self-pursuit of knowledge and education to make my life better. I wanted to become the odd demand of my own life and my own vision and have success in these different areas with health and fitness and especially with women which was the initial and original pain point that caused me to pursue self-improvement. Goals of this talk, kind of big but definitely something to focus on. I want you guys to get behind every organization that's authentically dedicated to men starting with 21 Studios, the company that runs this event, that runs the podcast, the 21 University, the YouTube channel, everything. But it's not just 21 Studios, it's just starting with 21 Studios. It's every company that we work with and companies that we have yet to work with that are dedicated to men authentically and genuinely and seriously. And we're going to get into what exactly that means as well. Well, before even getting any further, let's talk about that for a second. When I say authentically and genuinely, I mean companies and organizations and even individual speakers like Socrates who doesn't run a company per se but runs his own blog and his own personal initiative with relationships and relationship skills for men. These men and these speakers and these organizations are dedicated to men in a way that is primary. They're not making men better for society, for women. No, false. Men for themselves for their own sake, for their own happiness, not for someone else. A lot of what you see with self-improvement, especially as it relates to men, is for someone else. It's other centric. Oftentimes, it's for women. Let's be better men for everyone but ourselves. Fuck that. This company has never been about that and never will be. And the men I surround myself with, whether or not they know it, are on the same page. That's important and you need to keep that in mind when you support a company that's dedicated to men and presenting themselves as self-improvement for men in some way, regardless of what the field is, dating, relationships, health fitness, and so on. When I say building a universe for the ideal man for you to accomplish this pursuit of self-improvement and self-actualization with, I chose this word universe very carefully. I liked it, first of all, but I knew that it had a couple of different meanings. I was like, shit, is this going to work or not? It was like a tagline for the company and a focus and a purpose. And the end it did. The definition I'm working with for choosing that word is this, the people, places, experiences, et cetera, that are associated with a particular person, place, or thing. So clearly, when I use the word universe, it's not the grand definition, literally everything that exists. It's intended to be a universe for the ideal man, so everything that exists for you as a man right here, right now to make your life and your own self the best that it can be. So it's like a micro or a mini universe, as I think of it personally. That's what I'm building and that's what I've been building, whether or not I realized it since day one, way back in July 2006. Just in the pursuit of better success with women, self-improvement, better health and fitness, and so on. I've been building a universe slowly, bit by bit, as time goes on.
