pillars    

above all you have to be there for yourself. you have to put yourself first over everyone. not with ego but with the understanding that everyone around you will flourish through your ability to:
reject sin
reject gossip and foolishness
being mentally physically and spiritually strong
being honest and trustworthy
being patient and understanding

too much exercise makes you savage, too much music makes you soft.

you have to exercise not for vanity but to achieve harmony and excellence.
virtue in all aspects of life. mind body spirit.

you are a product of society, experience, upbringing and your thoughts.
none of these exist because they have to or should, they only exist because its what feels most comfortable or "correct". just because something is normalized does not make it right.

entertainments core foundation is sin. the world is run by merchants who sell and advertise sin to extract as much money from you as possible, but not only money, time. they go against everything you should be working to achieve. they destroy your mind with visual entertainment, short form content siphons time away from you so fast it might as well be a time machine. the body is reduced to a beggar, constantly in need of sugar, caffeine, masturbation and chemicals. after all of this your spirit is still alive, barely clinging on. you can still hear the call of a life thats worth living. you know if you keep walking down this path you will be left resentful, miserable and  full of regret, which of course will make it impossible to escape. you are allowing yourself to be completely stripped of all drive, integrity and love. allowing yourself to be stripped and lashed only to feel the pain once its far too late. 

if you masturbate every day you are being raped.
if you consume food that makes you feel terrible you are being poisoned.
if you cant focus, your attention span has been stolen.
if you constantly doubt yourself, you have been taught to.

although you might be a victim, you are not a slave. no one has a gun pointed at your head forcing you to do these things, you do them out of your own free will. this is true evil, the spirit thrives in opposition, when villages are in fear of an approaching army or when people are in gulags, no matter what they are faced with they inevitably find a way. when the spirit no longer needs "a way" its much easier to manipulate.

these merchants of sin have given us the option to buy a starbucks coffee with 200g of sugar in it, they have given us the option to watch porn for free online. through that, we haven't rejected it, we have accepted it as normal. sin is easy, its easy to buy a coke instead of water, its easy to watch porn for 30 minutes every night instead of reading. these systems are toxic and only take you away from harmony. moderation is key to life, but moderation works best when no toxic factors are allowed to exist in your mind, you'd be a fool to think you can moderately consume these things, they aren't meant for moderation, the whole marketing strategy is to get you to buy the product for as long as humanly possible. no one smokes 2 cigarettes a day, no one jerks off everyday without eventually watching things he would be repulsed by normally. of course, sin has existed throughout all of history. my point is that sin is engrained into the foundations of our society. the world is no longer tailored for the virtuous, flourishing man who only wants to be the best possible version of himself. people dont put beauty and divinity in front of themselves.

dont allow yourself to be a slave to something you've been taught to enjoy.
through body, mind, spirit and god you will live a fulfilled life.
no matter the state of the world or any of the people in it.
treat these 4 points as the cornerstone of who you are. if one of them is sacrificed, you fall.

the champagne pop you're waiting for will never come. 

inaction is the highest form of self-disrespect.
