This has been said before but I'm going to say it again. We need to start understanding our worth and just how hard we've worked for it. Too often do I see men who find embracing themselves as wrong and "not cool" which I just don't understand. This makes absolutely no sense to me whatsoever.
From the earliest days of Man we were the determining variable, we ran the fucking world. Men were the foundation of the greatest cities, structures, battles, readings, knowledge. Ultimately, we were the curators of our existence. Women are lucky enough, I use that extremely lightly, to be born into our existence. They are required to serve us. They need us to survive. Without Men, they are nothing. Our culture today unfortunately has shifted us from this mindset. It's ruining our primal instincts and is starting to become that way on a DNA level. The last part of that statement may or may not be true but it sure feels that way.
Women have become accustom to the thought that they are entitled to anything and everything. That they are the center of the universe. Everything must revolve around them or else it is wrong and a negative action must result. The attention and praise they thrive off, quite frankly, is a cancer in my eyes. Now you're probably asking how do we start laying the ground work to stop all this non-sense? It's quite easy and has been in front of our eyes the whole time. We've been conditioned to turn it off and not use it. We need to start embracing our worth again.
NOBODY OWES US SHIT
Seriously. Nobody owes us a fucking thing except ourselves. This comes off as harsh and unpopular but it's a cold and needed truth. This is the foundation of understanding your worth, because you have to WORK for everything you want and need, constantly. Once you've established this, everything else gets easier, trust me.
HARD WORK PAYS OFF
It doesn't matter what it is, if it's difficult it needs to be done. Nothing good has came from anything being easy, except for pussy. Take difficult situations as an opportunity to defeat something. Look them right in the fucking face and take those mother fuckers head on. It will make you a better man in the long run.
CHALLENGE YOURSELF CONSTANTLY
I literally fucking live by this 24/7 365. Everyday when I wake up I find something that would normally scare me or push me out of my comfort zone and I confront it and conquer that shit. It could be anything. Every time I step into the Arena that I call the Gym. I lift harder and heavier then the previous day, twice a day, seven times a week gents. I go outside my comfort zone to help when others won't. Go find a topic of study that you aren't knowledgeable in and learn that shit. Peak your interests in things that people aren't aware of. Be that guy that everyone comes to advice for. Reach out to people who you normally wouldn't talk to, you'd be amazed at what you can learn from someone who is "looked down upon".
TRULY BECOME HAPPY WITH YOURSELF
I can't stress this enough. This is important as fuck. Truly become happy with yourself. Did I mention you should become happy with yourself? You get the point, but most people don't. Connect with yourself. Slow down and get quiet enough to listen to your inner guide (a.k.a your intuition or your truth), and spend less time listening to other people’s opinions or the loud, critical voice inside your own mind. Set an intention to be happy. Despite what we may have been taught, happiness is as simple as just choosing to be happy. When we truly realize this—that happiness is a choice—we instantly empower ourselves in any situation, whether it’s a relationship, job, or pattern of thinking that's been creating judgments, worry, doubt, fear, or confusion. Last but not least, Not. Giving. A. Fuck.
Once you begin to embrace your worth and you stop letting others shit on it. You will become the ultimate man.
