1 RT = 1 Life Lesson

First one is on the house.

-Thread-

 Those you trust the most are those in the best position for betrayal.
Active listening is a false God.

Most people will waste your mental space.
If you want to say "no", dont use any other word.
Seeking approval is the first step to auto destruction
Time management is pain management.
Depression is a social construct.

We all have low moments, you don't need those pills.
No one should be your role model.
Your only limit is your own thoughts
Your only concern should be yourself.

Everyone is doing that anyway.
It's useless to set goals if you don't make plans to achieve them.
People will always try to dominate you.

Do it before they even attempt to.
Power games are everywhere.

If you're not playing, you're being played.
Controlling your subconscious makes you more of a human being and less of an animal.
Don't trust no one.
Always be wary.

But don't get paranoid, just be ahead.
Learn Marketing not to sell, but not to get fooled instead.
There is nothing you can't learn on your own.
Not only is no one coming to save you, but you're probably also not going to save yourself before fucking up many times.
You are being lied to at least twice an hour.

Every. Single. Day.
No one will build your self-confidence.

At best, they'll make you delusional.

That is YOUR responsibility.
Less than 3 people on Earth truly want to see you succeed.
There is no success without organization.

There is no organization without chaos.
The ability to focus is not as half as important as the ability to shift focus.
You're not poor if you got time.

You're not rich if you don't own your time.
People's opinion of you can never physically hurt you.
Value your time if you want to get respected.
Discipline is just a cute word for habit building
Life is not fair.

Crying over this fact makes you a loser.

Go out there and fight for whats yours.
Never depend on others for your plans.

Do your thing and those who love you will follow.
You are responsible for everything that happens to you after you reach the age of 7.
"What does this guy want"

Should be the first thing you think when someone says Hello.
People are afraid of the unknown because they don't know themselves enough.
Peace of mind is a choice not a result.
Being needy kills your worth.
Honor your family name more than you honor your first name.
You are unique and exceptional and no one can ever take that away from you.
You can't trust your instincts if you're often wrong.
Developing a strong instinct comes from compounding correct rational decisions.
Worrying too much is the first cause of depression.

Live the moment.
Never trust people that INSIST on the fact that they're loyal.
Most people on Twitter are deeply stupid.
You define your own value.

Others will just deal with what you impose.
Coming early and leaving late is sign of social neediness.
If you rely on others, you will forever live in their shadow.
"Everyone is egotistical and it's okay."

-@HeroicRhetoric
People who put you down secretly want to use you.
Virtues are overrated.

Self-interest is underrated.
Every second that goes by influences future you.
"It's not about time, it's about mental space"

-@DentesLeo
Morning meditation improves drastically the rest of your day.
Anyone preaching the use of drugs is living in a delusional world.
You are not what society imposed on you.
Thinking comes before acting.

Be proactive not reactive.
Being realistic doesnt mean being pessimistic neither does it mean being optimistic.

Stop hiding behind that word.
You don't chose where you come from.

You chose where you end up.
Poor genetics is a poor excuse.
Your potential is equal to zero if you let someone else define it for you.
Money is a result.

Money is a tool.

Money is NOT a life goal.
You start dying the moment you kill your ambition.
Be the kind of person you wish you had as a friend.
Your only responsibility is your own success.

Achieve that and you'll inevitably pull up your close ones.
Being different means being superior or inferior.

There is no neutral difference.

Except for colours.
Don't break any rule if you're not certain of getting away with it.
"Narcissism can't be wrong if you're simply superior to most people"

-@DejaRu22
Most of your thoughts were induced to you by other people.
People who seek your empathy want you to get weaker.
Life is about compounding wins and lessons.
If failure is an option, winning is mandatory.
You can't have a purpose in life if you don't know what YOU desire.
If they tweet about water more than once a week, unfollow them.
Life takes all its meaning when you ignore what others think of you.
What you read every day on Twitter impacts your life without you even realizing it.
You can forget when you win.

But that time you lost will forever be printed in your memories.
No Twitter guide will get you a personality.

Homage @FrazzleDazzzled
Most people who will congratulate you have a strong feeling of envy.

The ones that don't, truly appreciate you.
You were conditioned to think the way you do.

You were not condition to think that way forever.
I'm taking a brief pause and will resume in a moment.
Respect the rules until you become the one that makes them

-@UnmodernM

He said it differently but he said it
People who agree easily either have no personality or a plan to backstab you.
There is no better motivation than failure.

There is no better reason to improve if you've never suffered.
Looking at yourself in the mirror increases your self-awareness.

You need to know what YOU look like.
Self-talk defines your level of confidence.
Losers don't realize that they're doing it on purpose.

They either think life is hard on them or are completely delusional about their situation.
This is an example but the lesson is there:

@EgoDriv wouldn't be a success if he didn't deliver regardless of the results.
The number of people you know ha a direct correlation with your level of influence
Act as if you need no one.

Act as if everyone needs you.
You can't be confident if you never achieved anything.

You can't achieve anything if you're not confident enough to start.
You can't influence others if you don't master control your own behavior.
Remember those who believed in you.

Bury those who doubted you.
Find out what triggers them.

Keep it secret until they try to trigger you.
Don't forgive more than once.

MOVE ON & never look back.
People who will disappoint you the most either have no respect for you or idolize you.

Paradoxically.
"Only the strongest survives" will always be relevant.

It's the definition of strength and power that evolves over time.
Never take the blame for someone else.
Everyone is using other people.

The thing is to find people who's interests are aligned with yours.

Mutual benefit > Any sort of benefit
Others will never teach you as much as your mistakes will.

It's great to know other perspective, but there is no lesson without experience.
Your body language expresses more than your words will ever do.
Never forget what made you shed a tear.

Dont let it happen ever again.
Never let social media replace your social life.
Be a slave of your own happiness.

Can't go wrong.
Every person that likes you benefits from you.

This is not necessarily a bad thing.
People who worry too much about their image have a laughable of self-esteem.
You will have infinite inspiration if you stop searching for it.
Luck will never be worth the feeling getting the job done.
The human being is profoundly insecure.

Including you.
The key to a happy life is to act regardless of who's watching you.
They say ignorance is bliss.

Let me tell you Stupidity is a blessing in disguise.

Can't get offended if you dont understand to begin with.
Social Media beef is not always pointless.

Most will disagree but I just told you power games are everywhere.
Most leaders are not qualified enough to be.

Most of them will seek personal gain as soon as they take control.
If they give up, they were never fit.

Those who are worth it don't need extra incentives when obstacles are faced.
Here is one from my friend @SculptYourMind

https://t.co/mfp9UBaezA
If you rely on hope, you will most likely be deceived.

Rely on what you control instead.
No one respects a person with no skills.

Stand out.
Being supportive is great for social networking.

Being supported is better for self-empowerment.
Never let anyone put a leash on you.

Dont owe anyone anything.

Always give back what you get.
Pay for your friends whenever you can.

Thank me later.
Money is only use is to leverage power and influence.
People with too many insecurities will project them on you.

It will subconsciously affect yout behavior if you're too close to them.
Calculated risk is always lower.

But lower risk often means lower returns.
Will resume once I get past 8k.

5 Advanced Social Skills You Should Master

A thread


Wherever and whenever you’ll read about social skills you’ll be told some bullshit like Active listening & “set up your boundaries”, but the truth is the interesting part of social skills is the more complex & aggressive skills that most are too cowardly to talk about.

- Confrontation

If you’re too afraid to go to confrontation: nothing you have learned about social skills will be useful to you.

The most important thing is not the confrontation itself, but your willingness to go to confrontation.

The reason is that most lack the balls & courage to go to confrontation and will back down as soon as they sense resistance from you.

Of course, this is very nuanced because it is not applicable nor recommendable in all situations.

Many times, you will find yourself tempted to confront someone but the power dynamics will simply not allow it.

This takes us to our next point.

How to instantly stop being depressed.

If you're currently depressed and you're seeing this tweet,

THIS is your lucky day.

-Thread-

If you are already following me you probably have already read the thread below,

If not, start there and come back


The ONE thing you need to do is let go.

Except letting go is never easy.

In order to do it, there is no choice but to face everything.

My favorite method is pen and paper.

Write down EXACTLY what is making you feel depressed.

Visualize your demons.

Once you write down everything, it is time to think about a very simple question

What can I do about each of these stuff that is bothering me?

If you can do something about it, put a check.

If you can't do anything, leave it blank. We'll get back to this.

Now for all the stuff you can fix,

Define exactly what you should do to get it done.

Explicitly write what you need to do to stop worrying about this and that.

Fix a deadline.

You now have goals.

Achieve them.

How to avoid being disrespected.

-Thread-


Understand this:

Anyone who disrespects you did so because you let them.

The primary issue is that we think people are just evil, it's not the case.

People are driven by self-interest.

If they see opportunities, they seize them.

No matter what it costs YOU.

If you're reading this then you've probably already wondered how you can avoid being disrespected.

The answer is simple, there are 3 things you need to do.

Let me explain.

1- Tolerate less bullshit in the begining:

You see, your first interactions with people define how the rest of the relationship goes

If you tolerate misbehavior right from the start, chances are they're gonna keep doing it again

Don't let people get too comfortable too quickly

People have to deserve the right to fuck around with you.

A bad joke from a friend is not the same as when it comes from an acquaintance

How to force someone to do what you want

A manipulation thread


Disclaimer:

Keep your bullshit & virtue signaling for yourself.
We all, at some point or another, need to manipulate people.
You won't always get what you want ethically.
Sometimes you just have to use manipulation techniques.

Let's start.

1- Understand & Identify Leverage:

If you want someone to do what you want them to do, you need to pull the right levers.

For that, you need to identify what can be used against them.

Be it their insecurities or something they want, situations differ.

In most cases, fear is the most powerful leverage.

Fear of negative emotions is one thing that works like a charm.

You have to make them think that not doing what you want will induce negative emotions, most people suffer from a phobia of said negative emotions.

Use it.

If you can manage to induce fear into them, you will get them to do exactly what you want.

How to befriend any stranger.

Easy method to build respect based friendships with new people.

PS: Don't read if you feel bad about manipulating people.

-Thread-


Before we start, what you need to know is that there are two types of strangers:

-Those bothered by you

-Those who are willing to talk to you

In both cases, the first seconds of making contact are crucial.

Here is how you should approach both.

First thing you need to realize, is that while you're only practicing your social skills

The person in front has absolutely no interest or reason to listen to you.

This is why it is of paramount importance NOT to talk about yourself.

Make them feel comfortable.

Before we get to what you will say and how.

Let's focus on body language.

To trigger anyone's curiosity, you should convey a confident and reassuring vibe.

Your posture should be showing confidence without intimidating your interlocutor.

How can your body language express positive vibes?

- Straight back
- Wide shoulders
- Pumped chest (dont over do it)
- Genuine smile
- Stay at least a meter away from the person, you want to show interest but you want them to come to you

THREAD: 12 Things Everyone Should Know About IQ

1. IQ is one of the most heritable psychological traits – that is, individual differences in IQ are strongly associated with individual differences in genes (at least in fairly typical modern environments). https://t.co/3XxzW9bxLE


2. The heritability of IQ *increases* from childhood to adulthood. Meanwhile, the effect of the shared environment largely fades away. In other words, when it comes to IQ, nature becomes more important as we get older, nurture less. https://t.co/UqtS1lpw3n


3. IQ scores have been increasing for the last century or so, a phenomenon known as the Flynn effect. https://t.co/sCZvCst3hw (N ≈ 4 million)

(Note that the Flynn effect shows that IQ isn't 100% genetic; it doesn't show that it's 100% environmental.)


4. IQ predicts many important real world outcomes.

For example, though far from perfect, IQ is the single-best predictor of job performance we have – much better than Emotional Intelligence, the Big Five, Grit, etc. https://t.co/rKUgKDAAVx https://t.co/DWbVI8QSU3


5. Higher IQ is associated with a lower risk of death from most causes, including cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, most forms of cancer, homicide, suicide, and accident. https://t.co/PJjGNyeQRA (N = 728,160)

Shy people are either overthinking or highly observant of the social setting.

And in many cases it can be both.

'So what do I do?'

You learn the 75/25 law.

'What is that?'

The law of charisma...👇

Let's address the over thinkers first.

Do you have any idea why you overthink?

'Yea. Because others are judging how shy I am.'

Incorrect.

Others are thinking about themselves, not you.

But the fact that you think they are thinking about you, you fuck up the interaction.

Now you stay in your head too much & avoid the present moment.

A major no no in the social world.

Your tendency to think that others are judging you for being shy, coincidentally makes you more shy.

And that's when you start giving off a strange vibration to the social setting.

This is when you begin attracting comments like 'why are you so quiet?'

Years ago I would troll CrossFit/Planet Fitness until I got bored with it and created the “Car Rage” guy. People would say, stop screaming in your car and go back to trolling CrossFit. I didn’t listen.

After screaming in my car for 3 years I started doing other shit......

.... like MeatHead Minutes, Hater Dance Videos, Macho Man impersonations, Podcasting, exposing the hypocrisy of BLM, doing Live Streams nightly on YouTube, etc. People would say, stop doing this other shit and go back to screaming in your car. I didn’t listen....

.... my FB page has grown over 176k new followers since my first George Floyd video in June and all I really post about is current event shit. I posted a “Car Rage” video yesterday and people are saying, stop screaming in your car and go back to talking about politics......

.... moral of this cool story bro is the BEST thing I ever did, is not listen to what anyone told me to do. Be you.

I started TRT before the age of 30.

I did it because I wanted to, not because I needed to.

My Total Testosterone Levels (naturally) were just above 700 ng/dl

That's **Good, but not Great**

I wanted to be at 1,000 ng/dl (GREAT)

...

So, I talked a doctor into prescribing me Testosterone Cypionate.

NO DOCTOR IN AMERICA is going to agree to prescribe TRT to a man who is naturally at 700ng/dl

So, I intentionally crashed my natural T levels down to 300-400 ng/dl, then got bloodwork done

(I intentionally made my natural T levels look far lower than what they really were)

How did I intentionally crash my natural testosterone levels? (to go from 700 nd/dl, to 300-400ng/dl)

Bloodwork was planned for Thursday

...

Tuesday and Wednesday Night, intentionally get trash quality sleep (balls can't produce testosterone when you are sleep deprived)

Drink a ton of alcohol Wednesday Night (high alcohol consumption suppresses testosterone levels)

(1/3)

I am using only one indicator in the chart.
i.e DC(20) = Donchain Channel
I use 3 min chart and the DC period is 20, so DC high is basically the last 1 hour high & DC low is the last 1 hour low.
The middle line is the median of high and low.


(2/3)

Donchian channels are mainly used to identify the breakout of nifty/BNF.
We can take directional bias based on the indicator.
If nifty is breaking DC high, can take bullish view.
if it is breaking DC down, can take bearish view.
if it is in between, can trade range-bound.

(3/3)

We can monitor nifty/banknifty futures with volume along with DC.
If the volume is 1.5 to 2 times the average volume and if DC high/low is taken out then it can be a strong bullish/bearish signal.

Thread A History lesson for the MOAB:
1. The United States of America is not and has never been a Democracy, we're a Federal Republic tied together by the capital Laws of the Constitution.

Everyone in the country is about to get a harsh lesson on what this really means...

2. In 1871, February 21: Congress Passes an Act to Provide a Government for the District of Columbia, also known as the Act of 1871.

With no constitutional authority to do so, Congress creates a separate form of
government for the District of Columbia.

3. A ten mile square parcel of land (see,
Acts of the Forty-first Congress,” Section 34, Session III, chapters 61 and

4. The act — passed when the country was weakened and financially depleted in
the aftermath of the Civil War — was a strategic move by foreign interests
(international bankers) who were intent upon gaining a stranglehold on the coffers and neck of America.

5. Congress cut a deal w/ the international bankers(Rothschilds of London) to incur a DEBT to said bankers. Because the bankers were not about to lend money to a floundering nation w/out serious stipulations, they devised a way to get their foot in the door of the United States.
