Really a shame too when there's so many guys a thousand times more successful than you on this forum that you are literally *SURROUNDED by* and yet choose to ignore so you can 'chase your paper'
Good luck in your 'chasing paper'. This is your thread, so i'll respect your ignorance and stop posting in it. If you're immature enough you'll probably try to diss or burn me or prove yourself a 'man' by replying to this with a bunch of crap, antagonizing me to comment back. I'm the bigger man though
You know what I hope? More than anything for you? I hope you come in here some day and post pics of the stacks. Not because I give a shit, but because I want you to win. I want you to be real. I want you to say "I told you so" and mean it and back it up. I still believe it is out there to be taken. I think you can take it. I've been flat broke, on my back, can't breathe, can't eat.
And I got back up again. So yeah, I want you to prove me wrong. That will be a GOOD day for me, not a bad day.
This will, in fact, be my final post on this site UNTIL video evidence of our $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ amount is posted.
Uber, you violated:
Law 5 of the 48 Laws (So Much Depends on Reputation -- Guard it with your Life)
Law 9 of the 48 Laws (Win through your Actions, Never through Argument)
How can you recover?
Do what you said you would do..
See ya in October.
There's only one reason to have TWO accounts and that's because you've decided to fake something. Either your first account was fake and now you want to be real, or your first account was real, and now you want to be fake. Sorry, but the forum doesn't need more anonymous people rolling around in masks, it needs real people who have decided to be themselves.
Thanks for understanding. It's also a public note for anyone who wants to create multiple accounts for shits-n-giggles.
Great, you best be letting a mod know which one you want deleted. Because one of them is about to go bye-bye, and yes, we know which the other one is.
@strong I'm not sure if you understand how things work around here since you just joined 10 days ago (which is interesting by itself) but let me fill you in.
-Talk is not action, that's all we've seen for a while from your friend.
- How "massive" the action is, is relative to your current position in life. So if I might ask at what point in your journey are you so that I can put that "massive action" into a frame of your reference.
- It's difficult, if not impossible to judge the quality of ones actions, until you've far surpassed that point yourself.
holy freaking shit, that's the longest reply I've read my whole life in a forum. You could have written a whole book and published it on Amazon instead.Finally. A truly interesting post.
I appreciate your thought-provoking question. Beware. Reading the remainder of this post is an official introduction to The Dark Side.
How much of the 48 Laws of Power have you studied, my friend? Have you put them in the context of the other works written by Robert Greene, a kind of modern-day uber-Machiavelli. I say Uber, paying homage to Nietzsche, whose work echoes throughout all of Greene's work.
In fact, he concludes Mastery with: "Because we think well of ourselves, but nonetheless never suppose ourselves capable of producing a painting like one of Raphael's or a dramatic scene like one of Shakespeare's, we convince ourselves that the capacity to do so is quite extraordinary marvelous, a wholly uncommon accident, or, if we are still religiously included, a mercy from on high. Thus our vanity, our self-love, promotes the cult of genius: for only if we think of him as being very remote from us, as a miraculum, does he not aggrieve us... But, aside from the suggestions of our vanity, the activity of the genius seems in no way fundamentally different from the activity of the inventor of machines, the scholar of astronomy or history, the master of tactics. All these activities are explicable if one pictures oneself people whose thinking is active in one direction, who employ everything as material, who always zealously observe their own inner life and that of others, who perceive everywhere models and incentives, who never tire of combining together the means available to them. Genius too does nothing but learn first how to lay bricks then how to build, and continually seek for material and continually form itself around it. Every activity of man is amazingly complicated, not only that of the genius: but none is a "miracle."
Those are the final sentences of Robert Greene's latest work, Mastery.
There are certain aspects of Mastery that I relate especially well with. Greene's description of learning - and eventually mastering - the piano, on the second page of the book, where he discusses The Ultimate Power and relates it to the process of learning and mastering the piano.
@Formless
I take your comment as support, brother/sister, whatever/whoever you are. At the end of the day, beyond the crazy, I think you can sense the realness of who I am and what I am. Read my threads. You decide if I'm lying - or if I'm legit. Ask @ChasingPaper . He can't tell you much, because he's under non-disclosure, but he'll tell you I'm for real.
He'll also tell you that I'm all about this Dr. HAHA Lung shit. He'll also tell you that we think some of you are CRAZY.
As compared to me...
Who is perfectly sane.
Anyway, I'll turn off the sarcasm juice.
Back to Formlessness, which happens to be the 48th Law, the one Mao exhibits (Mao's "Complete Objectivity" notion also inspired the First Chapter of the 50th Law), and which Robert Greene admits is his favorite.
@Vigilante
Sometimes, you just feel tired. You feel weak. And when you feel weak, you feel like you wanna just give up. But you gotta search within you, you gotta find that inner strength, and just pull that shit outta you. And get that motivation to not give up and NOT be a quitter, no matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face."
'Til I collapse, I'm going to put every ounce of my effort into my hustle. I'm going to win, and by win, I mean that I will be able to say that no matter what happens, I put everything in this. I gave it my all. I post here because at the end of the day, I relate with the principles. One day, when I was feelin' like shit, MJ posted in and basically said yo, we get it. We all deal with this. Keep fighting.
But then he also complained that some of my posts were just rants about how great I am. Heh, to be honest with you, I had to psych myself up for some calls. I had to remind myself that I pitched and closed Fortune 1000 companies before. I had to remember that I really am dope enough to close multi-million dollar biz-to-biz contracts (of varying sorts)... just 'cause I'm the man, and I've been doing this since I dropped out of college at 16. I 'm in this shit for real. I've bled the pains of a guy who poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into a hope, which was just a faint glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel, and now I'm storming through it like motherfuckin' Neo in the Matrix and the only reason I'm not crying tears of wretched. Motherfuckin'. Glory. Is that visual evidence of my Ri$E has been saved just for @ChasingPaper and @FastlaneTiger. My brothers.
The shit the three of us is like magic. Black magic. Magic that says (expletive deleted) YOU IF YOU'RE NOT WITH US OR AT LEAST CHEERING FOR US.
@davedev
I really like you question, dude. It's making me feel... creative.
Hmmm...
Where's my Gucci bag...
Damn. May mangled copy of 33 strategies of War isn't on me. Oh, wait. Silly me. It's always on me. HAHAHAHA. Check my blog brother. I have this shit nailed on my chest, like Christ was nailed on the tree...
You know, I'm not sure what it is that makes people read my posts. But the responses... they're worth it. I find people who think like me. Honestly, the few people I've dealt with from this site are worth the time I've spent with them. I've learned lessons from every encounter. I mean, come on. I'm legit. I get on the phone with motherfuckers. How many of YOU even have the balls to get on the phone with someone from this site, strike up a conversation, sign contracts and then start making hundreds of colds calls, preparing presentations... explaining to clients why this is a one-of-a kind opportunity...
Hhahaha.
Come on, guys. TIL THE ROOF COMES OFF I'M GONNA RIP THIS SHIT!!!!!
Sorry, I'm feeling a little... ah. I can't describe the words.
Anyway, let me get back to @Formless
Bro, I'm sure you're aware that your username coincides with the 48th Law of Power, right?
Also, it coincides with Bruce Lee's famous maxim: "Be water, my friend."
In other words... RIDE THE WAVE... LIKE MUSASHI...
Brothers, I soon await you in paradise. As I type these sentences, I laugh in my heart about how much hatred we've generated. Perhaps we should make a list. No... this would not be worth our time. All we have to do is continue to do what we've been doing... hustling... everyday... even when it hurts... even when we don't want to... keep going... keep fighting, brothers... and I promise you, we are going to be able to celebrate and the Fastlane will ultimately come to love us. So what. Our story wasn't pretty. We were gutted on the horns of fate in a brutal situation. The whole world's financial crisis go messed up. Double Down Media had to shut down operations. No more cool parties for Hudge Fund Managers under the age of 30 making 8-figures a year. Damn. The hell? Everything just went to crap.
Man. Back to square one. Hm. Create an uber-biz. Step one... start an energy brokerage... heh-heh-heh... learn lots of lessons... start another energy brokerage... heh-heh-heh...
Now... completely shift industries. Sell sex. Sell greed. Sell glory. Sell the American basic... nvm. I'm getting ahead of myself, and I'm begging to feel as though I am rambling.
Requirements:
Intense loneliness. Intense immersion in your work. Frequent statements of non-belief and doubt expressed by those who are closest to you, and these are the ones who are supposed to believe in you even when you didn't believe in yourself... and there were times they believe in you when you didn't believe in yourself....
Lots of long conversations with clients, strategic partners, and business advisors. Clients, because you need to know what they think. You gotta think of how to get that first client. If you have to, buy him. But you should really bond with him. Think of him as a partner... and he BECOMES a business partner. I think that's an idea that would really help anyone in any kind of business. Establishing the relationship with that FIRST customer or client is really key. Things can really take off lightening first from there. They can tell you so much! They can criticize you. Sometimes harshly. And that's good, because you need that, because when you're going after an entire market, your pitch and game have to be TOP NOTCH. At the end of the day, yes, it's about the customers needs. Can you fulfill them? How much will it cost them? Can you save them more than they ultimately have to pay you? Can you corner the market, meaning that your'e the only person selling what you sell, with the financing mathematics to back it up?
Random observation: Girls from Russia twerk so, so nice.
Lots of writing in your notebook. Sometimes, when you deal with extremely intense situations, you want to write over and over again. Like the folloloinwg:
Lots more, but the point is that Robert Greene obviously respects Nietzsche highly. So does Dr. HAHA Lung, who reminds the read in the opening pages of Mind-Sword that Nietzsche made philosophy dangerous.
Anyway, back to those laws. Robert Greene reminds people about not apply this or that law in formulaic way, it is about having a certain mindset. This is why he practices Zen-style meditation, and has been doing so for years now. It is clear that Greene is always bettering himself. Anyone who has seen him speak other languages can attest to this.
Circulating , the internet there is a picture of 50 Cent and Robert Green arm wrestling. It is a funny picture to me, because these guys have such different backgrounds... but they seem to have so much in common. You can see videos of 50 cent online talking about releasing the 50 th Law, but the video is shot with the projects in the background. They're in the projects when the video is being shot. And 50's talkin' that real shit. That $$$,$$$,$$$ shit. I relate with that. The dude got shot 9 times, and while I've never been shot, there are many things I've been through that have been extremely painful, so much that sometimes I wanted to give... and be a quitter...
But I enter every action with boldness. Every phone call. Every client conversation.
no I didn't. I bet nobody did.yea but u read it though
Uber, you violated:
Law 5 of the 48 Laws (So Much Depends on Reputation -- Guard it with your Life)
Law 9 of the 48 Laws (Win through your Actions, Never through Argument)
How can you recover?
Do what you said you would do..
See ya in October.
This post isn't for everyone. It's only for the fellow genius out there.
what the hell is this?
Thread is closed. I've read 6 pages of absolute nothingness.
