@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
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
Never once in your life will you regret working out
yeah, it's amazing - it allows you to enter a deeper consciousness
* conscious state
Definitely does...nothing beats being in the zone. I've chased that dragon for as long as I've worked out for. Nothing like it
