You either improve or degenerate.
What are the key things to have, to do, to become a great man?
In my mind I know the perfect list:
- Work out
- Keep developing professional skills (I'm a software entrepreneur, so everything around programming to marketing)
- Develop good social circle, and cultivate the few real friendships among them. Don't waste time hanging out with the "crowd" for the hell of it
- Read great litterature, great philosophy. Avoid american self help books.
- Eat healthy as fuck. Do intermittent fasting. Fast several days every season.
- Write and read poetry
- Become red pill as fuck (=approach Truth as much as possible), know when and how to hide your cards. Chose battles carefully
- Pray and take religion (Christianity) very seriously
- The hard ones: raise a family? Or wait for the west to collapse?
I have the perfect list and yet every morning I struggle to get out of bed and apply it. What's the trick to get the same energy in the morning as last night?
/pol/ share the wisdom, and what worked for your life. Small routines are also appreciated.
posted on /pol/ because /pol/ is always right, and society is degenerating.

I used to be an atheist actually. So my faith is real now. I do believe it deep down.
The thing is, without a God, all this list and how to be a righteous man is useless. If good and bad is all relative, what's the point of everything? Hedonism and nihilism are a dead end.

>>69966081
>The thing is, without a God, all this list and how to be a righteous man is useless. If good and bad is all relative, what's the point of everything?
But with a God it is equally useless, because you can never know for sure if you're truly righteous in his eyes.
The only hope for man is to act according to the Stoa (nature).
>>69966911
I appreciate the effort but you're missing the point.
>>69966911
Which leads me to your point about reading philosophy books.
Marcus Aurelius' Meditations is the most accessible work about Stoicism. I suggest you start with it.
>>69966771
>>69967054
If your point is to understand the meaning of life then you'll only find despair in your life.
Even if there's one, we can never fully comprehend it. Just accept things as they are and try your best to achieve excellence in everything you set yourself to do.
>>69967059
>>69967059
Thanks, great book and I've read it already actually.
Fun fact: stoicism (aurelius, senecca, epictetus, cicero) led me to Christianity. Both are extremely compatible.

>>69964659
I would also like to add no prescription medicine. That is a dark road to go down.
>>69964659
Here are some things to add:
- Meditation
- Martial art
- Yoga
Those things actually recharge your energy instead of consuming it. Meditation will give you that fresh energy.
It's important to remember this. Just doing a list of things like a robot is in itself not that great. You will run out of steam eventually. It's not the robotic repetition that makes you better, it's the drive in your mind to be better. When i meditate my mind starts to see new directions that i haven't thought about before. You just allow new forms of reality to exist, and then you learn to achieve that reality in real life. Anyway, i'm rambling, good luck.
Get yourself a good liberal arts education and I don't mean faggot shit like psychology or whatever, I mean the classical education that Europeans employed to great effect for centuries focusing on the trivium (grammar, logic and rhetoric) and quadrivium (arithmetic, geometry, music and astronomy) with other things such as philosophy thrown in while also, of course, studying the classics, Greek and Latin. These would create a well-rounded, educated individual able to think freely and critically as well as express himself well be it in debate, speech or writing.
It's no surprise things have gotten worse with the fragmentation of education over the last century or so.
>>69966081
The point in life is to be happy.
There is no greater purpose, divine power bullshit.
You're an animal that needs to eat, drink and sleep.
You have the impulse to leave your gene's in the gene pool, but that's about as far as it goes.
Everything else is on you, and you can do whatever the fuck you want if you're willing to suffer the consequences.
>>69964659
> (=approach Truth as much as possible)

We're getting mixed messages here.
>>69964659
What's even the point.

We all will.
>>69964659
You should add:

Know how to play at least one musical instrument

>>69964659
This has to be the most beautiful piece of art I have ever seen? I remember seeing this a long ago. what is it called?
>>69967715
I tried mediation but I can never keep at it. I'm also a bit wary of it, because it seems like a women discipline, it's pushed in women magazine and everything. I see it suspicious. What's a manly way to do meditation? Keep in mind I'm wary of new age mystic bullshit.
>>69967723
Interesting approach. Any good book?
>>69964659
Stop coming here.
>>69967957
If there is no greater purpose, then there is no point. You're completely illogical. And 'Be happy' is meaningless.
>>69968046
Quite the opposite. Christianity is Truth.
>>69968097
Good ones.
Find someone to mentor in the direction that is best for them, but don't let them know that is what you are doing, don't be afraid that he can bring you down or surpass you, if you do it right you will always be one step ahead in your direction.
>>69968357
How do you find such mentors? I think you're right it's the most efficient way to learn new things. Seeing is believing and it's much easier to imitate at the beginning.
>>69966771
So, are you choosing to believe something just because you want to feel like there's a point to life? Seems kind of self-serving. Not very "red-pilled" if you ask me. If you were truly in pursuit of the unfettered truth then you wouldn't view life from a presupposition which necessitates religion.
> become red pilled
> become Christian
Haha. Yes, become a mindless sheep following an old book about sky daddy. Don't forget to beat your wife if she speaks without your permission.

First of all, limit your time on /pol/, having said that, if /pol/ makes you interested in something other than traps then I'm all for it. Read a large book on Russia because of this shit.
As for working out? If you don't have time issues, if you work out straight away in the morning, it's hard in the sense you consider everything you put in your mouth after. "I did an hour of cardio this morning, do I really want that donut?"
Gl
>>69968282
Why does there have to be a point? Regardless, wouldn't you rather have your own purpose in life rather than have it decided for you?
>>69968578
I didn't chose to believe because I want a point to life.
It's a more complicated than that, we can discuss it on another thread.
>>69968556
No i mean the other way around, you mentor someone else. You may be shit now, feel defeated and think you need a mentor to reach the stars but if you have worked everything out above you are doing very well and would do even better to go the rest alone with a sidekick to help. You get extra motivation seeing someone else thrive too don't forget. There are many people out there who need a mentor more than you do, they'd do well to know a percentage of what you know.
>>69969020
I don't feel good enough in my fields to mentor people though.
You can only give what you have.
>>69970079
That's because you bought the anti-egotistical self-deprecating humour meme. The only people you should be making fun of are inadequate authorities.
>>69966771

To the atheist filth: Those who are not only of no faith but are actually attacking our Lord Christ will go to hell as sure as the sun rises in the morning, you made your own bed, atheist scum.
>>69968142
Meditation is basically you returning to your true self, and slowly chipping away the bullshit that society has forced upon you since childhood.
I don't feel that it's a womanly thing. For example i also practice channeling male energy. Like the energy of destruction and death. But we have a lot of stuck emotions that are not fully expressed like love, sadness, laughter, happiness. Meditation and yoga helps those emotions exist, because they are actually part of you. They shouldn't be suppressed.
>>69964659
You are:
- In a country run by a 'Democratic progressive party', with roots of some shitheads who failed to subdue peasants despite huge western funding and training, and if you're an English teacher there you're just worse

See, even pol, where truth and tradition are hailed the fiendish atheists crawhl out of their wholes as soon as their read the name of our Lord. Their little demons in their heads cannot but force them to. Actual Truth (Christ, the only and final 'redpill') is hated here as much as on reddit. No amount of anonymity will diminish the hate the world harbors for the Truth.
See what works for yourself. Workout, as you have written, is very important for we are body and soul. Avoid sugar as much as possible, same goes for alcohol. Eat good, organic meat if you lack strength. Drink plenty of water. Pray in the morning and before sleep. Find a good Church where you are surrounded by real believers. I can only recommend the Orthodox Church with good conscience. Go to confession regularly. See if you have nutritious deficiencies and if you can amend them by a change in diet or supplements. Do a detox now and then, I recommend chlorella protocols. Hope I could help you.
>>69964659
Aristotle famously said that we are what we repeatedly do.
A virtuous man is one who does virtuous things. He does them enough that virtue becomes a habit, and thus becomes the virtuous man.
You must do what you want to become. There is no other choice, no magic spell. You have the freedom to do whatever you will. You must choose to become the virtuous man.
If your will is weak, then you can try to strengthen your will. Pray for a strong will. Resist temptations which you know only sap you of strength. Meditate. Do chores/work. Exercise. Strengthen your will, then use it to do virtuous deeds and thus become a virtuous man.
>Work out
Perhaps meet with a special trainer if you don't know what to do. Running is easy; just do it, you don't need anything.
>Develop good social circle, and cultivate the few real friendships among them.
Best place to do this is at Church.
>Read great literature, great philosophy.
I could give you some recommendations if you want. I would need to know specifically what you're interested in though. I majored in both philosophy and theology in college so I know quite a bit about this.
>The hard ones: raise a family? Or wait for the west to collapse?
I would recommend raising a family if you can. Have as many kids as you can support, and raise them to be wise. We can save the world from degeneracy as long as we continue to raise up people to fight for the truth. One fact that gives me hope for the future is that conservative Christians have more children than secularists. We can win with numbers since many of them are too lazy or irresponsible to have kids.
>>69964659
Nothing you wrote down is concrete. That will never work. You don't have a goal to "work out" or to "read great literature" or "write poetry". It needs to be "follow X training plan and hit 90% of my sessions over two months" or "finish a book every week".

No it isn't! Why are you talking nonsense? Spewing things you don't understand and have learned properly? Yes, right because you are a liar and you love to lie. Keep lying then and see where your life will take you.

-Forget working out, do work and don't sleep enough to get where you want
-If your professional skills haven't landed you a big shot yet, you are doing everything very very wrong
-You need good connections not good social circle, since all you need is yourself to rely on mental support
-Litter your house with books of those that succeed, you might read them once but if you can't put their core concepts to use, burn them
-no time to eat healthy if there is no one to make you healthy food between your business meetings in restaurants
-hire someone to write a book about you
-forget being red pilled on everything since your money rich connections hate all kind of things and if you don't have the moneys, beggars can't be choosers
-forget that shit if it doesn't bring you prestige
-you only need a trophy wife who won't leave you. You need her after you succeed to make you more successful, and she has no need to leave if you have all the monies.
All and all you are too late, too stupid, and didn't born to the right family. Tough luck.

Everything on your list is about you.
"...our war is not between man and man, but within ourselves: The hostile battle lines spring forth in opposition to us from our very flesh itself. A friend is distinquished from an enemy by such a fine line that there is great danger of inadvertently defending an enemy as a friend, or attacking a friend thinking him to be an enemy. Our notorious enemy always takes on the appearance of an angel of light. We need always ask, "Are you one of ours or one of our adversaries?" Since you must war with yourself and since the first hope of victory lies in whether you know yourself as much as possible, I shall now put before you a kind of likeness of yourself so that you may plainly know what is within and what is merely skin-deep."

Sounds like a decent list. I just have a few suggestions.
Between raising a family and waiting for the west to collapse you should just wait for the west to collapse. Your potential children will thank you for not bringing them into this hell hole just to suffer pointlessly.
As for your religion choice, I would consider taking up Hinduism or Zen Buddhism instead of christianity. Try not to decide on a religion until you've developed your redpilled philosophy independently first. You don't want your philosophy of life just to be an ad hoc defense of whatever religion you subscribe to or else you will be a permapleb.
>>69978421
>Modern powerlifting programming
Knock yourself out.
I'm not a powerlifter by trade, so I balance everything in my life.
I chop firewood instead of paying a man in yoga pants to tell me to do jumping jacks.
I cook my own meals instead of paying a vegan in yoga pants to watch me make a protein smoothie.
I don't drop everything to eat just because it's noon.

Discipline is good, but it reads like you literally just sat down and thought about every stereotype you could imagine and set it down in a list.
Different lifestyles work better for different people.
You're taking your own life way too seriously, you have a fucking fantasy that you'd prefer to act out.
When you live your life literally trying to become more of a poser every day, you're gonna end up hollow or an obvious douchebag.
I mean, fasting? For real? Why? I'll tell you why; Your delusional ass is so hungry for approval that you've got this lame plan to impress everyone you know with how holier than thou you are. I bet you have some half-retarded idea about "muh mental discipline", but in reality you want a pat on the back.
That's what you live for, it's transparent.
Same could be said about your "love" for philosophy. People that actual care are a few and far between, most fags just want to be seen reading it and get the sparknotes because they like to jerk themselves off.
You're nothing but a sheep looking for approval, the only difference is you're pandering to the /pol/ crowd instead of being a good goy like most others of your kind, but you know what?
You're a piece of shit. I've met too many cunts like you, fuckers looking for a metaphorical handjob, and if you don't get it you fuck off and look for some dimwitted dope that WILL metaphorically jerk you off, because the *appearance* of greatness is all you give a shit about. If you could get that feeling you crave so much without doing any work you know you would.
I can tell just by reading the rest of your posts that you're putting on airs to give yourself a fucking erection, going out of you way to use big words for no reason.
Fucking odious.
You should lock yourself in a fucking cage for a week and actually, TRULY look inwardly and analyze why you're fetishizing all this bullshit to make yourself feel special.

Fap at most once a week like other already recommended and try do abandon porn completly. Its a drug an you know it.
>to be a great man you need to find a purpose in this world and set goals that you can realistically achieve...life is about discipline and routine and continually setting the bar higher for yourself .....this is as red pill as it gets.

>start showering cold the last 30 sec of showering.
Do that in the winter. And, do it for the last 3-5 minutes, not for 30 seconds like a common faggot.
In the winter, take a hot shower and switch to cold water for the last 3-5 minutes. The hot shower warms your core, the 3-5 minutes of cold water adjusts your skin to the cold climate.
Do the opposite in summer--take a cold shower to cool your core, and turn up the hot water at the end so your skin perceives the warm weather as cool.
Above all, learn to be a man. Grow, kill, and cook your own food, fix your own home and car, and catch your own women.
Living only for today leaves you poor and hungry tomorrow.

>every morning I struggle to get out of bed
Victory goes hand in hand with failure.
You can't exspect to do great stuff while your life is a smooth ride.
The things on this list are all secondary. You need to have a specific goal, aim high and then turn your failures into large success.

if anything, you should be preparing for your eventual invasion from china mainland. this means physical fitness and finding other strong willed fighters to associate yourself with.
you can only last so long before the crates of M-16s mysteriously start showing up to help you.

That makes sense, but to be fair the other guy implied spiritual/philosophical reasons that he didn't want to get into.
Humans really were meant to graze, but they were slso meant to be kinda flabby and weak.
Look at hinter-gatherers today. Horrible bodies.
You don't have to just eat and become fat. You can eat and become strong too, it just takes some will.
Our digestive system is perfectly up to the task already, but it can't do anything if you eat cake and sit on your ass every day.
One day you'll realise that the true measure of a mans worth is the service and value he provides unto the world.
All of your goals are selfish.

Start waking up at 4:30 am. It seriously improves your mental clarity and general capability during the day.

I'm actually doing a 60 hour fast starting today. Most I've ever fasted was for 36 hours. What's a good meal that I should eat to break this fast?
Also, just ran a mile in under 30 minutes. Haven't worked out for over a year, I'm getting back into the rhythm of things, since at 25 and having gone through cancer, depression, the death of my parents, you come to realize that you've got one chance to leave the best corpse you can.
>>69986041
Why would you fast? Are there benefits gained by doing so?
>>69986163
Plenty, ranging from immunity to cognition. I recommend a cursory glance at these resources: https://wefa.st/ and https://nootrobox.com/biohacker-guide/intermittent-fasting which provide a few studies on the effects of fasting.

>>69986566
I do HIIT runs, does that count as "ran" a mile this morning? I ran track back in college and in H.S. running a mile under 30 is bullshit.
Don't ask me bro. I'm in my 30s without a GED or have any sort of dreams because I am too old to start anything now without facing some sort of age bias/discrimination which I'm not prepared to face.
>>69986330
Wow, I had no idea that fasting affects your body that much. Looks like I will try it out in the summer, even if its only for a couple of hours per day.

Stop being a chickenshit and go through the adult classes that you need in order to get your G.E.D. if it means something to you. What do you even need to get your G.E.D. in the first place? A week's worth of Algebra/Geometry/Pre-Calc? If getting your G.E.D. is preventing you from enrolling to a university and getting the degree that you've been dreaming of, then get it over with.
I have two degrees under my belt and was able to get them both done in 3 years. I was juggling chemotherapy at the time and homelessness. You have 0 excuses.

"Christianity is the ultimate redpill, seek and you should find." Seek... And you should find... Christianity, yes, at last you will see that the ideals of Christ, viz. love and acceptance of those that believe in the all-mighty father YHWH and love, albeit not acceptance of those who want to destroy you, is the path... Islam in the West? Why not? A true Christian does not fight. That is the corrupted moral of Rome, which never represented the Truth of Christ. Only true Christians will understand this. Pope Francis: the first truly Christian pope and your leader. Surrender your arms and warrior spirit to the Lord, and thou shalt live in eternal harmony with that which will never be on earth. Despise thy mortal flesh for it beget thou not. Indulge in fasts and approach ascension of the Spirit. Vain pursuits such as "writing" and "poetry" do not agree with the spirit of the true Christian, which is also the case for "working out": a hopelessly vain and un-Christian, Barbaric European pursuit. For make no mistake, those who art of the Lord art of the East.

I figure I would need over a year to pass it, especially as I missed out before the exam was reworked and the difficulty was raised.
I cannot even think of going to university or even community college as that's over $10k annually and I don't feel comfortable borrowing money from the government since employment in any field isn't a sure thing. Worse is that i'll end up bombing placement exams and will spend at least five years in a place that I should only be in for two.
Sorry to hear about your chemo. I too was homeless a decade ago during my "best years", but I had no resources and did nothing except work fast food and support what "family" I had.
