Yes of course, I understand.

What do you think is the way forward then bro? Should we reconsider the whole concept of spining plates

Self-control or abstinence should be focused more on instead because many men have fallen from spinning the wrong plate. Make your decision wisely.

pansophist:
The power game is one that requires self control. If you can't control yourself and react emotionally to everything, then you'll suffer in the hands of others. Someone insults you, trying to tempt you into a fist fight? You ignore and not fight them, because even if you will win, you actually do not know their plan, if they carry a weapon, or as a reason to ploy a devastating revenge.

Not every battle is worth winning. Some battles even if you win, the cure is worth than the disease, and emotional reaction is a wrong method to determine battles worth fighting. Self control is the destination, emotions, tantrums and provocations are like the barking dog, rain, and smoke.

If you can't control yourself, you'll be a slave to everyone, everything, and you've killed your unborn self. For example, sleeping with multiple women, risking pregnancy and disease, or being addicted to financial holes such as smoking, clubbing materialism etc, habits that could be tackled with proper self control.

Controlling yourself is the greatest power you can ever have. Just as a ship only sink when water from the ocean goes inside it, a man that cannot control himself will be sinked by the world. You'll easily fall for everything, and never reach your full potential.

No man is free who is not master of himself. Epictetus.

You're a man full of knowledge. Thanks for sharing this piece.

The power of posturing during conversations should not be underestimated.


I have some few non verbal cheats I use in my day to day activities most especially when I am dealing with my customers.

*Lean in slightly when the other party is opening up on their sensitive personal issues, it shows that you care or at least pretend to.

*Lean back a little to show non verbal skepticism especially if you are discussing with a superior, your non verbal will most likely be picked on and you will be offered the chance to state your counter arguments.

*Lean back slightly to one side if you perceive you have just been lied to, keep quiet and maintain a dead stare eye contact, it does wonders if done correctly.

*Lean back then immediately lean in then drop your head and raise it up followed with a dead stare if you want to make a threat, whatever comes after this move will rattle who you are aiming at.



There are more but these are what time permits me.

Very good. Many people overlook the power of posture and eye contact in conversions or social gatherings. Just maintaining strong eye contact alone with a woman can make a woman confused about what to say. That alone builds sexual tension if done the right way. If you're shy, build up your social skills. It takes practice.

this is the problem I am facing now. My dad was too gentle and weak.
How can I solve it now?

Now your job is to be exactly the opposite of what your dad was. Improve yourself and you'll succeed. Sharpen your mind.

Azurevermillion:
I realised something while reading Robert Greene books. The men of the past don't have strong distractions to deal with (video games, social media, tv, gambling, porn etc). So, they had all the time to master, plan, imagine, create, and perfect their act of deception and manipulation.

It's hard for the average man to ditch them.

Humans were programmed to act in some way, the people who succeed are those who were able to reprogram or detach themselves. These distractions were created by those in power to keep average people distracted and in control. If you don't control it, it will control you. Nowadays, you'll find it difficult to find someone truly ready to improve their situation. These are what's whiling away most people's time and energy; and sometimes, without them realising. It is now left for you to be consumed by it or be saved from it.

rant19ade:
What if the person is not a superior but a mate who probably has better social image/communication skills than you, hence the possibility of the crowd listening to them and not you. What should one do?

What do you mean by a better image? Do you mean he's "more liked" by people, more popular? Charming or charismatic? Shining more brightly than those around him?

If that's what you mean and the person is not your superior, continue talking, unless you're sure no one wants to listen to you. There's nothing you can do in this case. If people find him charming and likeable, they will be willing to listen to whatever he's saying irrespective of whether he's saying the right thing or not. That's one of the advantages of being likeable and charming. This was all discussed on this thread.

You have a pussy worshipper as a friend, that behaviour is common among such people.

Azurevermillion:
To think that I believe in do good and good will come to you. The problem with this phrase is that I believed that if I do good, it is a must for it to reciprocate back to me and nothing bad must happen to me because I didn't do bad. I know better now.

When you help someone or do someone a favour, do it without expecting anything in return from them, else you might end up being disappointed. Expects less.

Don't expect people to be nice to you because you're nice to them.

@Shoodboi, thank you so much for this. I don't know how else to explain this for the handwriting to be bold enough for some people to see. This is just a summary of what's been talked about since the inception.

ExtremeDot:
Please, can you break this down? It's a bit confusing to me.

People conflate being wealthy with wisdom. Having immense wealth doesn't necessarily means the person must be loaded with valuable wisdom. A poor person doesn't mean he has no valuable insights to offer.

So being wealthy sometimes doesn't correlate with the degree of knowledge someone has.
