watch my main man brian do a 45 minute talk on achieving your dreams. i discovered this self-help stuff when i was ~19 years old and i listened to a lot of it. i wholeheartedly believe this stuff works and these days it is a nice refuge from all the demoralizing content the internet is full of.

when i read wizards being unhealthy or depressed, that's offensive to me. please stop hurting me so bad.

as a wizzard you have all the advantage in the world. you have no malevolent evil female in your life insisting on turning you into a circus animal for her personal gain. you know how many trapped loser husbands would love to be able to do whatever they want? all of them. you owe it to those loser token husbands to make the best out of yourself and i am here, hoping my cheer will reach you.

seriously man fuck these husbands, with their ridiculous shaven babyface. they do this because their wives make them shave their beard and ON PURPOSE they females make the husbands dress like bitches. if you are living your freedom and a husband sees you, the husband will feel like a fraud. and he is.

none of you would be depressed if you found the way inside yourself to make you feel good. there is a inbuilt happiness button and i can tell you have not found it, which sucks. happiness is not something that depends on conditions to be perfect. it is like a muscle that you simply never discovered. once you do, it is like a button and the only thing standing in the way of you experiencing it is you forgetting to press the botton, which happens to the best.

i wouldn't know how to encounter this knowledge in a culture that prides itself in producing depresses people whose beliefs are up for auction. when you are a normie midwit sciencebeliever, you will not end up finding out that you can be complete in yourself, nobody benefits from you becoming spiritually self-sustaining. benefit however is the requirement for theater to be enacted and repeated which is the prerequisit for a normal person to believe something. normies believe whatever is repeated most often and most loudly. if you were secure in yourself instead of seeking the safety of the group, the loudness would no longer trick you into acting in your worst self-interest.

what i am saying is as a human you get to be happy unless you led the noise intimidate and trick you into not knowing how. i say find out how to be complete in yourself and then all the superficiality and unhappiness melts away.

when i first stumbled into this self-help and success ideology (in the shape of books, audiobooks or even videos of seminars) i was never sure that this would help me, but i kept at it. now 20 years later after first having listened to something like this, i firmly belive this helps. i would have prefered not to go to school and just listen to audiobooks that would interest me and experiment myself. this body of knowledge contain the missing pieces that school has an active interest in people never finding out as to make them easier to get addicted to irresponsibility and group-think. school wants to make children dependent minions and not empower them.

i think the topics/exercises/stories that are told in this body of knowledge do empower and broaden the horizon of the audiencemembers, even just for the reason that time and attention is spent on self-improvement. just listening to someone's best attempt at how to live a better live sets gears in motion, it makes the audience question how to improve automatically.

in 20 years i have heard lots of people disrespect self-help stuff but i don't remember ever hearing valid reasoning within the disrespect. i guess just frustration of people who can't find the time to self-improve and think they can get away with remaining a ball in a pinball machine.

gurus are for normalcattle, truwizs use their brains to think and does not rely on a guru to know what is right and wrong

>gurus are for normalcattle,

when you read a book of someone and it helps you, that isn't necessarily the same as being a follower of a cult.

i see it more like this:

<what is your wisdom?
>did you know you can do more?
<no i didn't, i went to school were i learned to doubt my instincts and self-disable so that rich people stay in power.
>well now you know
<thanks for telling me

>truwizs use their brains to think and does not rely on a guru to know what is right and wrong

i agree with this but you trying to paint this as some kind of religion tells me that you aren't in the habit of actively looking for things that help you broaden your own horizon.

someone like that who you call a guru tries to communicate what is possible and this can help people find their own areas of blindness. someone completely unconscious, busy with fulfilling the demands of modern culture might stumble upon the one contradiction that helps him question an awful life situation objectively.

that's so rude. what if you are a simpleton who isn't into questioning reality but you realized that you have been fooled and taken advantage of so much that (better late then never) you start the difficult journey of making sense of things yourself using your own mental verification instead of looking for experts to do your thinking. someone tired of all the gaslighting might try to find their way out of the conditioned thought- and habit-patterns and then you bum lurk behind the garbage can, ready to catapult insults at them.

that's the way out of being a cattle you dirty beardless minion.
