I could see myself teaching martial arts

@Kazemaru until u find ur calling, escapism can actually be a useful tool if used wisely - escapism allows your subconscious to ponder as your calling comes from ur subconscious not conscious mind

Aye

For example.... If you like animes, use this to learn japanese

@Sigma dream until you have a vision that is so compelling that you stay up all night thinking about it. then commit to it and don't look back

I stayed up all night one time thinking about having my own training facility

@Sigma you're at one of the most pivotable points in ur life man - be true to urself and you'll know when you have ur calling

training/recovery facility

I would love to make a living teaching people how to work out and teaching martial arts

I'd like personal training, but I don't think it pays enough to live

and tiny houses have zoning laws that work against owning one

@Reaper yeah - it's sad because nowadays kids have huge egos and all suffer from the dunn kruger effect - therefore are unwilling to submit themselves to anything where they feel inferior and just need to absorb information without having a chance to question it - they go to school to express themselves without actually building a foundation of knowledge - therefore their expressive thoughts are shallow and meaningless. your pyramid can only be as tall as its base allows - nowadays ppl are just too impatient to take the time to learn fundamentals and the real beauty behind different trades.

@JDB I will have to look into the Dunn kruger effect , I can definetly see this generations egos getting in the way of real growth for them and it's sad

also, the process of accumulating knowledge is 'messy' at school - you have no scope of how things fit together. this is where a master is needed

knowledge should be built upon fundamentals, a layering like process. this way you have a 'rich' understanding of a subject and where various topics stem from. it also allows you to very easily draw parallels to other topics because you have an understanding of a core concept that over-rules many other sub-topics. in school you get taught a bit from everywhere without taking time to fill in the gaps that should connect different strands on knowledge. the process of learning i believe we should learn by is 'mastery learning' - however it has a huge downside being that it takes actual interest and more time to integrate - hence it will never be incorporated in schools. however if you learn like this and reason from a fundamental first principle, your thoughts will be simple but complex and you will be able to move mountains.

That was well put

thank you - it's frustrating because if we all structured our thoughts like this from a young age we would have an extremely logical society that isn't swayed so easily by emotions.

In a college setting, I assume a Master-Apprenticeship is basically working closely with a professor in your field of study on a specific thing

yep exactly

Robert Greene even mentioned how some masters who went to college achieved mastery and it involved working closely with a professor on a project

it's basically one-on-one learning, which is the best way to learn

i'm 20 and i know that i can't actually explain anything that i learned from school from a first principle, nor can i connect topics by an over-arching concept. i'm frustrated that i didn't realise this sooner but at the same time at-least i realise it.

I only realized a lot of this shit within the last two years and I'm 26

@Sigma exactly, most people don't give a shit about their course and don't utilise the opportunity

I feel like I'm far behind

tbh, i feel like you can only really comprehend this at an age of 18+

If I didn't go straight to college right after graduating...omfg

otherwise your influenced too heavily by society and haven't experienced enough self-growth

atleast we've found mgtow, that allows us to develop our consciousness - 95% of people never ask themselves 'why'

better late than never

and if they do, they are scared and disgusted with the answers that get - so they stop after tier 1

All this stuff is exactly what I need at this point

I need a right of passage, which is essentially a mission/journey to embark on

you're young enough to heavily influence your life - you're still 'young' in a broad sense. regardless, even if you're 70, to me atleast, mgtow can bring logic to your life and can validate your own thoughts that you thought were inadequate

@Sigma dream my man, dream until you have a vision that brings you to a deep flow state of consciousness

then you know you've found it

I'll get more clarity when I start working out again

I haven't worked out much lately

yeah, working out is extremely therapeutic and can part the clouds that hide logic

working full time kills me

The clarity of mind after a tough workout alone makes training worth it
