Young men are facing a war against modernity
Society knows if it can catch a man when he is young & impressionable, it can subdue him before he becomes a threat
But society doesn't want you to rise from ashes
It wants you slowly burned alive
How do you avoid this?

Modernity subconsciously wires you to accept complacency & mediocrity
Complacency is the uncritical satisfaction of your "accomplishments"
Mediocrity is accepting that you are just "good enough."
How do you recognize when you are being rewired to accpet these ideologies?

The strongest men I know are those who never settle
They are always pursuing the next avenue that brings them more satisfaction & strength
But modern society pushes that which provide instant gratification:
- Binge streaming
- Fast food
- 2 day shipping
Why are these harmful?

Deep within himself, every man knows he is called to pursue a mission that is greater than he is
Pursuing these missions brings:
- Freedom
- Growth
- Resilience
Those three hallmarks are best acquired when you do things that promote your primitive roots.
"My what?"

Every man is
- Strong
- Logical
- Aggressive
Those are his primitive roots and everything he does stems through those
But modernity has blasted those things with negative connotations
Even the men who pursue their roots are subject to complacency and mediocrity

Do you know what happens when a man is faced with hardship, trials & tribulations?
He meets a fork in the road
He can either overcome the fire
Or he can dwell within his own ashes.
The primitive man grows, overcomes
The modern man remains, he accepts what has happened to him
He meets a fork in the road
He can either overcome the fire
Or he can dwell within his own ashes.

The modern man remains, he accepts what has happened to him
"It is what is is" is the mantra of the weak modern man.
His life is falling apart?
Doesn't matter, he gets home & cracks open a cold one
His woman doesn't want to romance him?
Doesn't matter, he can watch porn
He isn't happy with his life?
Doesn't matter.
See the trend?

"It is what it is" means you have settled.
Strong men never settle, remember?
Modernity is rigged in such way that it provides instant relief to hardship
You don't have to pursue long lasting change
Because so many immediate pick-me-ups exist.

If a man was hungry, he used to have to hunt and scavenge for food
If a man wanted to have sex, he used to have to marry the woman he loves
If a man wanted to become a better man, he used to have to let other men tell him the shit he doesn't want to hear.
That last one...

That last one is where a lot of our problems come from
You young men don't have to engage with people who challenge you and force you to grow
Because there are no more social demands for your growth
There are hardly any demands for you to actually be a man.

And that's why during your 20s you're coerced into wasting your time on:
- Partying
- Sex
- Drugs
- Video games
Instead of on
- Brotherhood
- Meaningful relationships
- Long term fulfillment
- Actual real life adventure
There is ALWAYS an easier alternative...

And those easier alternatives are constantly handed to you on a sliver - no, golden - platter
You don't need to pursue bigger and better for your life
Why would you when instant gratification is so enticing?
To you young men:
When will you break the chains of modernity?

"I don't know how to break the chains"
You start off small
You stop indulging instant satisfaction
You must start pursuing the long term gain, not this quick & easy bullshit that puts you in an early & comfortable grave.
You are so much greater than complacency and mediocrity

Your masculine nature has everything inside of your very being that has coded you for:
- Conquest
- Competition
- Legacy building
Everything you need is already inside of you.
The choice to rise from the ashes of modernity is yours
And it always has been.
Will you rise?

Will you rise?
Never settle
Never be comfortable
Never accept short term gain.
Never allow society to convince you that "it is what it is" is the mantra of successful living
Acceptance of things you CAN control is weakness.
And God forbid a man is weak
God forbid he is "modern."

Wrapping up here, I leave you with this:
The minute you tell yourself "it is what it is" is the minute you accept defeat.
Reframe the mentality:
"I can do better. I must become better."
Rise, David
Rise from the ashes that hold you captive.
See you on the other side.
