25 Things You Should Realize By 25 (PART 2)

Continued from Part 1.

16) You should monitor your speech.

By the time you hit 25 and have a few years of real life experience under your belt, you MUST realize that you cannot just say whatever comes to your mind, and “always being honest regardless of how people feel” is a BAD strategy.

You need to have figured out how to handle people.

A lot of naive men (which is most of them) think that if they are always honest and blunt, they will develop a reputation for honesty and that people would come to appreciate it and respect it.

The reality is almost entirely the other way around. You are not a genius for inventing the “always honest” strategy. Almost every naive idiot follows this “strategy”.

And they all crash and burn. This is because in reality, when you are highly honest, it rubs almost everyone the wrong way. It turns people who would otherwise have been friends into enemies (loud or silent, the latter being more dangerous).

The vast majority of men DO NOT monitor what they are saying. They just blabber. Only a small minority of people have control over their tongues and they are the ones who get real life results: more friends, more well wishers, more silent assisters, more goodwill, more margin of error, etc.

Almost every young man is better off taking 2 days off everything and just reading Corporate Machiavelli cover to cover.

17) The world is full of people who covet what you have.

The vast majority of the world is envious of people who are doing better than them. They want to harm those who are better than them, in this order:

• Money
• Status
• Sexual access

People want to harm those who are richer than them. They will secretly sabotage people with more money simply out of spite.

People want to do even greater harm to others who are perceived as higher status than them. This is why influential people are often hated by a big portion of the population.

People (usually men) want to do the most harm to other men who are sleeping with lots of women. This triggers their envy on a highly visceral level.

At some level, the losers understand that they’re in a zero sum game and that the winners are taking much more than their share (and that they will get sloppy seconds at best), and that the only way they can stop it is by doing whatever they can to harm the winners.

18) Bragging about your life is almost always a bad move.

As such, you should be smart enough to realize that bragging is almost always a bad move.

Not only do you lower your social status by bragging, but you also invite jealousy and destruction towards yourself.

Many ancient cultures have this belief of an “evil eye” which is basically a symbolism of how making a display of good things tends to invite jealousy, and that these envious people are likely to sabotage you later down the line.

When you’re around the general population, simply lie downwards. Only reveal more details of your successes if you have to.

19) Pornography will kill your sex life.

Internet pornography is poison for a young man’s virility and drive. It will literally waste countless hours of your life and sap you of energy.

You will be about to do something, will decide to have a quickie, and then the drive to take action would be gone after.

If you’re in this position, you are almost guaranteed to waste your life unless you fix it quickly. Your 20s will pass by without you building anything of value.

Take the Live Intentionally: 90 Day Self-Improvement Program and get rid of this habit for good. As a bonus, you’ll also lose a bunch of excess body fat on the program and look leaner.

20) Governments don’t care about you.

The government DOES NOT care about your well being. The idea that a government will do something to make your life better is beyond hilarious to say the least.

If you want to be successful, you need to do it yourself. If you’re waiting for the government to fix everything around you, find you a job, etc. you are basically a low IQ person who is beyond help.

21) Your parents are aging.

By the time you are 25, your parents are probably in their 50s. You will only have them around for a limited number of years and if you’re not spending time with them, you will eventually regret it.

If you live away from your parents, call them regularly. They do not call you even if they want to because they don’t want to be imposing on your free time.

One day it will be too late, and you will wish for just a last 5 minute conversation with them. I’ve seen this plenty of times, and when it’s too late, it is too late.

22) That marriage is not a joke.

Who you marry is the most important decision you will ever make in your life. The fact that so many men do it because they’re “in love” shows how retarded men are, and how smart women are.

Most men usually marry a woman who is far worse than them in every objective way. They get nagged, hate coming home, and to add insult to injury, have dead bedrooms.

If you’re considering marriage, you need to read The Wife Guide: How to Choose The Right Woman For Marriage. Make sure you marry a woman with the right traits otherwise you WILL pay for it for the rest of your life.

23) You can choose to be lucky and you can choose to be unlucky.

You cannot control blind luck but you can do things that make you more lucky or more unlucky.

Being intentional and strategic? Attracts good luck.

Cheerful and happy mood? Attracts good luck.

Optimistic worldview? Attracts good luck.

Taking more shots? Attracts good luck.

Being bold? Attracts good luck.

Running your mouth and bragging all the time? Attracts bad luck.

Being irritable and sarcastic? Attracts bad luck.

Pessimistic worldview? Attracts bad luck.

Shy and reserved? Attracts bad luck.

Timidity? Attracts bad luck.

People with certain behaviors are lucky more often than others.

I create stuff and pitch them to potential customers all the time. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. When something works, I get a new income stream.

24) Most people are spiritual faggots.

There is no nicer way of putting it.

They always “want to” do things, or are “thinking of starting” something.

They are never actually doing anything, because they are spiritual faggots.

They’ve been researching about building a business for the past 3 years, but have built NOTHING from it. They’ve been trying to lose weight for 5 years but can’t seem to put the chocolates and samosas down.

They don’t understand that they can just learn from others and get results and build on them.

Guys who use The Art of X are making MONEY from their accounts in months of starting. Guys who use The Art of Copywriting get their first client in weeks by sending cold email.

Basically if you are a spiritual faggot, you are NGMI in the coming world. Literally screwed because AI will destroy you.

How do you know if you’re a spiritual faggot? Look at your actions in the last 6 months. Have you made SERIOUS EFFORT to achieve the things you set out to achieve? If not, you’re a spiritual fag.

Keep doing more “research” while the people taking action get further and further ahead. Or start taking some MASSIVE ACTION AND BUILD MOMENTUM.

25) If you cannot figure out how to make large amounts of money from the internet, you will be forced to waste your life working for it.

Another thing that should be clear as day by the time you’re 25.

Money is the fuel of a good life. (Health is the engine.)

All the good things you want cost money: high quality food, good housing, stress free life, ability to sustain a marriage and children, ability to travel, ability to live with dignity, etc.

If you do not make a lot of money from the internet or some kind of a scalable business or a very high paying career, you will be forced to spend most of the good quality hours of your life simply working to make money.

You will waste your entire youth on making money to pay bills and will never have enough to be comfortable.

This is why it’s so important to make a lot of money as soon as you can. It sounds easy to say, and funnily, it’s not particularly hard to do if you are enterprising and able to take some serious action.

Of course, if you’re lazy, dumb, addicted to porn, overweight and low energy… you won’t get anywhere.

That’s all for this series.

See you next time.

Your man,

Harsh Strongman
