“The quicker that you can get over the fearing a judgement of a woman, and the needing a women’s validation, you are going to become a man that God put you here to be.” Well said.
I recently broke up with my girlfriend after she began to compare me to other guys and what her friends boyfriends do for them. I began to put my attention on what I can do for her VS what 8 need to do for myself. I left. My life is about making decent money, pursuing my hobbies with a passion(bjj, history), traveling and continuing to learn about the world. Thanks, Elisha!
Never saw Medusa that way before. It makes sense allegorically though, you turn to stone because you're so afraid of her judgement, you're frozen with fear.
Even some of the best women can drain a man of his time and resources if he's not careful. They don't mean it, it's just the way most of them are. This is where men have to be aware, respect themselves, have a strong frame and know their purpose. Kings, do the work, get the results and women will live around YOU. Not The other way round. Embrace the struggle
Great analogies, ancient stories with timeless wisdom. ”Every man knows that his highest purpose in life cannot be reduced to any particular relationship.

I really like how you keep repeating the fact how men should build themselves first before diving into a relationship. Most of us should spend our 20s exploring and trying out different things, trying to discover our purpose and meaning in life. This is the best period in our lives to do it. Women are an attribute to a man's life, not the end goal. When you focus on building on yourself, the right women will show up by themselves. If you are struggling to be comfortable talking to a woman, ANY woman, that is a clear sign you haven't yet built your foundation. Don't worry about various pickup tactics or having "game", when you establish your foundation as a man you will develop character which will naturally make you confident with ALL girls, and all people for that matter. Good stuff as always Elisha, you've made some great points in the video. Cheers.
Oh man this hits... I have extremely addictive tendencies across the board nothing specific, it just concentrates on the most stimulating thing available to me at a given time(often times pron) Im fairly convinced that I try to fill the hole of meaninglessness in my life and the lack of purpose or rather my inability to live it to degree that I would like Every time Ive been with a girl in the recent years it started out in a quite masculine frame but with time I got hooked and basically became a domesticated puppy It wasnt too obvious on the outside but inside I knew and was deeply disgusted with myself every time it happened Nowadays I decided to go celibate as long as I havent found a firm standing in my masculinity and its expression through my purpose otherwise I will lose myself in the sauce once again Great Vid! Im curious for the last book of the trilogy if it ever comes out haha
Actually ironically this is something that bad been occurring in my life recently. And this video by the grace of God or rather you and what you put out into the world its crazy how much this was needed. I think a higher power or the universe is telling me to trust within myself and follow the path I set out to conquer to stay in frame.

My best friend died in September. Although I have a good job my first year out of college, I fell back into the matrix / patterns of unhealthy pleasure seeking and validation from women, drugs, etc. This channel has greatly helped me reorient myself to what matters, re think the man I want to be, and help encourage me by realizing I’m not failure, it’s okay to not be perfect. Realize where I’ve gone wrong, be honest with myself, & reach out when I need help, because other people ( in particular young men ) are also going through similar challenges. Thank you for helping bring us together and helping me realize I’m not alone.
Part of what you said was covered in the book "Wild At Heart". Religion, especially Christianity (I'm a Christian), no longer pushes masculinity. There used to be a masculine aspect to it that has gotten lost it seems. Yes, I have an overbearing mother. I got recommended Jesse Lee Petersen recently. I guess I'll have to check him out.
Truth. I think this may be through a shift in interpretation of what the Bible says, I've recently reread a very known part of Mathew that talks about letting someone slap you in the other cheek, and I'm seeing it at a different light now, every person that talked about this part it was all about "not fighting back" and all of that, but I feel that it actually teaches you to act in a more stoic sense, more of a "you can't hurt me" meaning
Recently it's been hard to keep up on the No Nut Life (Until Marriage to a good woman) that I'm trying to live for myself and God, and every time before I work out there is a part of my brain that says I could have a much more fun time if I just pulled up a certain website and went at it. But I pull myself together, do my workout, and then I feel utterly fantastic! I know part of the reason why I am so tempted is because I'm bored with nothing to do right now. I'm dedicated to making myself a better man, so I cannot go back to old habits. Just a little bit ago I warded off an urge by doing some pushups. I watched one of your previous videos about what Arnold said about the pump. Ever since then, I've found an extra fantastic (Almost orgasmic) feeling to finishing a workout that I didn't feel before. It really helps to put it in that perspective, I don't know why.
Yo, just wanted to know what happened to the patreon? Remember it being 5 bucks a month, which was cool, affordable, just 60 bucks per year, but now it's almost 20 bucks? Were courses added or something? Like, It's still affordable and has probably more value than spotify + netflix subs combined, just curious about the price bump.
Napolean Bonaparte - I went to a place where a women whose hair open, wearing black clothes, attractive, she was surrounded by thousands of men who was lying around her here and there,when I touched every men's body, there was no bones inside, but everyone was smiling,I didn't made eye contact with her, I moved away from place and didn't see back even a bit.
Wise Mans Fear is one of the greats. Thought the Felurian part was good but some of the feminist elements with the Adem was sort of off putting. Otherwise a classic
Spirit kitties.🤣 Why didn't You tell Me this before I married the succubus?? 10 years of absolute hell, But I would do it again for the daughters I now have from it.
I think making an attempt at sexual discipline is important for being a Christian. No one can be absolutely perfect. I think god will be fine with people trying their best. Be a man of masculinity.
He's mentioned it a few times before, don't exactly remember his opinion but I also wouldn't really take someone's opinion on a subject they have no real life experience with especially with something as mystical as psychedelics

Love the biblical references, there's plenty of manly wisdom throughout the scriptures. Thank you and God bless you, Elisha

As a Man of God I think the bible can teach us so many lessons that remain relevant to our lives in 2023.
