Most of you guys should leave this board for a while

A man requires two fundamental areas for long-term happiness regardless of his age, scenario, personality, or interests. That is, money and sex. For a man, these two things provide a basis for all other success in all other areas of life (like family, children, spirituality, etc). Unless you are a very bizarre exception to the rule, lack of either money or sex for prolonged periods will cause you unhappiness regardless of anything else positive occurring in your life.

If you pursue external solutions like becoming politically active in movements or supporting / worshiping politicians (regardless if their names are “Trump” or “Sanders”) with the hopes that these people will somehow directly improve your life, you will succeed only in venting some anger and perhaps making a few new friends. You are extremely unlikely to succeed in actually improving your own life, and you will likely waste decades of your time in the process. If instead you shift your focus, time, and effort on internal solutions, like working on improving your own income, your dating / relationship abilities with women, your physical fitness, and otherwise improve your own life, while this will still take a few years of work, it will take far less time to achieve real results, and the odds of actually achieving these results are extremely high, often 80% or higher. Obviously, internal solutions are a much better, smarter, and more efficient way to go about improving your own life, regardless of how entertaining or seductive external solutions may be.

The people who are damaging their lives by focusing on external solutions usually suffer from these two conditions:

>1. They spend a decent amount of time on external solutions like trolling people on the internet, arguing with people on Facebook or Twitter, watching political videos (that both reinforce and oppose their political viewpoints) and getting worked up about them, voting in national elections, trying to get others to vote, creating or participating in movements to create societal change, getting into screaming fights (both verbal and physical) at protests, and so on. They are doing this stuff every day, seven days a week or close to it, often for hours a day.

>2. They really think their guy or the people on their side can actually change things, soon, and in a radical way. In 2000, George W. Bush supporters really thought he was going to make government smaller. (He didn’t, as I said he wouldn’t.) In 2008, Obama supporters really thought he was going to end the US wars in the Middle East. (He didn’t, as I said he wouldn’t.) In 2016, Trump supporters really thought he was going to build an unbroken wall on the Mexican border spanning from San Diego to Brownsville (He won’t. Watch.) In the near future, Bernie Sanders supporters (or whomever replaces his legacy) will really think that they’ll get free college, free health care, and free whatever else, and/or that doing so will work out great. (They’ll get those things eventually, but it will be a fucking mess. Watch.) And so on.

However, if you reach a baseline of success in your life where your long-term happiness is more or less assured because you’ve already built that money/sex foundation, then, at that point, it’s probably okay to pursue external solutions if you still want to.

>1. You make $75,000 a year in income or more, via your own business (having a job doesn’t count). Convert to your own currency equivalents if you live outside of the US
>2. You have zero or very little debt
>3. You get laid literally whenever you want with women you consider attractive (having sex with ugly or average girls doesn’t count), and can quickly add new, attractive women to your sex life within 30 days whenever you want, and without having to pay for it. (That last part is only if you’re under the age of about 50. If you’re over age 50, paying for sex is probably okay as long as you can afford it.)
>4. You’re in at least decently average physical shape. You don’t have to be ripped or anything; you can even be a little overweight as long as you’re overall healthy, particularly for your age. I mean that you have no major health problems and you’re not a fatass

If you’ve accomplished all four of those things, then if you still want to spend time in external solutions, it’s probably fine. You’ve established a baseline of masculine happiness financially, sexually, and physically, and may be perfectly happy with where you are for the long-term. At that point, if you really want to spend your time trying to save the world, save Western Civilization, save your country, save your race, or whatever other external solution turns you on, then I guess go ahead.

>Nigga think he can actually tell people what to do.

The problem is that the world, and the internet, is jam-packed full of men on both the left and the right who spend hours upon hours farting around with external solutions who make no where near $75,000 a year and/or who barely know how to get laid unless it’s an average / ugly girlfriend or hooker. If this is you, you need to slap yourself in the face and wake yourself up from your political trance. You are sucking the happiness out of your life and you’re likely never going to achieve any level of personal success if you’re wasting your time farting around with politics when you don’t make enough money for basic happiness and/or don’t have decent dating skills so you can get the sex you need.

Stop fucking around with external solutions and:

>Start your own business
>Get your income up
>Pay off your debt
>Get good with women, or at least to an intermediate level of skill with pickup, dating, and relationships
>If you have any serious health problems, get them handled (drug addiction, being seriously overweight, sleeping too much or to little, etc)

Once you get those things done, and yes, it might take a few years if you’re starting all of these areas from ground zero, then feel free to spend time on external solutions if you find meaning in that kind of thing.

One parting thought about this. Some of your hardcore political types may find this hard to believe, but once you actually get your life to a place where you’re making plenty of money, getting plenty of sex (from attractive women), have your business and finances pretty much the way you want them, you may find that you don’t quite care nearly as much about the world’s problems as you did back when these things were problematic for you.

I can't force anyone to do anything. I'm just telling it how it is. For all I know, you are probably posting le ebin "CLEAN YOUR ROOM" and "SORT YOURSELF OUT" memes all over the place.

Not Bad.

Good post OP. Don't waste your life on politics. Focus on self improvement.

I'm starting to get so racist I don't even like Slavs and Southern Europeans.
Plot twist: I'm a southern Slav immigrant

fear my dedication to your downfall.
Know it as the tides turn against you.
feel the sea of information pull you in.
Drown in the blood of giants you pierce.

>You can't walk and chew bubblegum at the same time.
The absolute state of this board.

Thanks OP. I'm doing pretty well then. Today I decided I need to go ahead with my own business in a more serious manner. I have an amazing qt gf that supports me doing this and is helping me along the way and hopefully we will be having kids in a year or so.

NEETS BTFO

23, making 52k, getting in better shape, suffer from pretty bad social anxiety and self esteem/image issues that are baked into me in a low level way. Naturally I dont have a gf and was a fuktard that let every girl who showed interest in me slip by. So overall I have a pretty good life, but I really do need to get my romantic/intimate life in check. I can already feel the singleness/lack of intimate partner life draining the color from my day to day life.

Fuck off kike I have money and I can pay hookers.

The White race needs me.

so what advice do you have for a young guy who has no sex/relationships to get in the game OP? This is all new to me. I get nervous around girls I like/dates, except when drunk. I'm an ENFP.

>A man requires two fundamental areas for long-term happiness regardless of his age, scenario, personality, or interests. That is, money and sex.

False.

He needs nothing but his will, and a desire for progress.

EVERYTHING else is distraction.

real men rob banks and bang hookers, America fuck yeah

Awesome post, mind if i post this over at reddit.com?

>hedonism
no thanks

who is this batter banshee?

>average girls aren't attractive

Stop watching porn you faggot.

>If you have any serious health problems, get them handled
then by definition it isn't serious is it, if it can just be 'handled', step up your game manchild.

...

Thanks but no thanks.

Explain.

I'm ugly and have a shitty personality
I make good money but shitposting is very cathartic
Fuck off hole

How do you get into Carnegie Hall?

>dude just get laid
>you shouldn't even vote in national elections
>just focus on yourself whilst we destroy society
Great advice

Newsflash: it has already been destroyed and the genie is not going back into the bottle without a collapse of some sort. You are the guy who desperately tries to pump water out of the Titanic (even though it ultimately saves only minutes, if that) and drowns because of his stubbornness.

Why won't you just answer anons q
Go back to the bar and spread your legs, slut

that was actually pretty funny

just journaled for about 25 mins. Digged into my past as it relates to women and realized better knowledge than OP probably could have given me. Shit thread btw, not even salty. Peace.

Cool I'll just become super attractive despite the bone structure I was born with

>not even salty, I swear! :)
