The period after breaking up with a girlfriend can be a lonesome time full of doubt, fear, regret and pain. In this article we will learn how to get over a breakup the easiest, most painless way possible. This article will not review how to get over a divorce, but how to get over a breakup with a girlfriend with whom you do not share children.
For purposes of this post we will assume the girl in the relationship broke up with the guy. We can assume this for two reasons: 1) Most breakups are initiated by the female and 2) A male would not be reading about how to get over a breakup if her were not the heartbroken party.
10 steps to getting over a breakup:
1) Understand that you are still in love with her simply because you can’t have her. If she all of a sudden became extremely needy she would cease to be so attractive. Men are in love with women they cannot have and women are in love with men they cannot have. If they could have them, that person would cease to be as attractive.
2) There are plenty of fish in the sea. There are over 3 billion women in the world and the median age for women world-wide is 29 years old. That means there are millions of dateable women in the world. There are literally millions of women as good, or better, than her. There are prettier women, there are sexier women, there are smarter women, there are younger women - anything you can think of there are millions more. To be obsessed with one in a sea of millions is lunacy. All her “great” qualities were something you made up in your mind. The truth is that women will change to please you in any way you desire. Women are chameleons in love and your hobbies and interests will become her hobbies and interests. A better woman can always be found.
3) She is not your soul-mate, your true love, the one or anything else. She’s just a girl you dated for a while. Soul mates and true love is an invention of the movies and sold to the gullible masses. If she was your soul-mate or your true love you would still be with her and everything would be roses. If such a thing as soul-mates existed then you would have never broken up. If true-love existed then she would still be with you. It isn’t true love you have, it’s true infatuation because she played you really well. If the girl actually was perfect for you then you would not have broken up.
4) Realize that when another girl comes along you will forget all about the old one. The way you get over your dogs death is you mourn for a while and then you go to the puppy pound and pick up a new dog. Similarly, the way you truly get over a woman is to get another one.
5) Do not watch sappy movies or listen to sad music. The media you imbibe affects your mood, positively or negatively. Rather than consume media that makes you sad, you should consume media that uplifts you and motivates you for the future. Don’t feed that heartbreak fire with heartbreak songs, movies and books.
6) Realize that you dodged a bullet by breaking up. Since it could not last, could never last, it’s best that it’s overwith now instead of in the future when much more could be at stake i.e. children, alimony, divorce, child support etc. A little heartache is a whole lot better than being bled dry from an unhappy ex-wife.
7) Realize that you will just be sad and lonesome for a little while and accept it. You wouldn’t be human if you had no emotions. So maybe you’ll spend a week listening to sad music and drinking too much whiskey. Just don’t let it become habit. Get it out, get it overwith and move on.
8) You can learn from your mistakes and be a better companion for your future women.That doesn’t mean you should pay more attention or buy more gifts, you shouldn’t. You should act in a similar aloof manner in which “the one” acted which caused you so much heartache and pain. If you want your woman to be head over heels in love with you you simply cannot be too available to her. That doesn’t mean you must be rude or mean, but it does mean you cannot be too nice or too eager to please. Never spill your guts and always let her wonder about you. Conventional wisdom says otherwise but conventional wisdom leads to divorce from “unhappy” wives who didn’t have the mystery they craved. Your woman must look up to you in some way to maintain her feelings of love for you. When you maintain that aloofness she is drawn to your power, the power she craves for you to have but will never admit.
9) Never, ever take advice from women on how to get women. They will lie unknowingly and tell you to be nice and be yourself and buy gifts, knowing full well that they despise the losers who do such things. Similarly, do not take advice from internet “pick up artists” hellbent on sexual degeneracy. The best person to take advice from is a guy who continually has pretty girlfriends who dote on him.
10) Realize that a lot of modern women will never be happy with any man as long as they live. The reality is that modern woman has been spoonfed completely unrealistic romance movies her entire life and she believes in them as much as she believes in anything. She believes she deserves everything she sees on tv. She will always think that her perfect man, her soul-mate, her white knight in shining armor is out there somewhere. Absolutely nothing a man can do will please such women forever. These women will die alone and will never, ever understand where they went wrong until it’s too late. These are the women whom you cannot please no matter what. If you’re dating such a woman you should let her go immediately and find a better companion. Don’t fall for the “saving her” baloney. She isn’t a damsel in distress and she is beyond redemption. Such cases will only end with you with your head in your hands wondering “why?”.
Getting over a breakup is easy when you think about it in a logical way and don’t let blind emotion run you over. The old adages are very true: there are plenty of fish in the sea, you are better off etc.. There is light at the end of your tunnel, whereas if you stayed on board with this woman there would only be darkness waiting for you. The right choice has been made for you, whether you want to believe it or not. Dust yourself off and find yourself a better option. There are millions to choose from.
————————————————————————
If you want women to become obsessed with you read this article, but heed this warning: when a women is obsessed with you you will lose your desire for her. For you to be truly attracted and want her she must make you chase her a little. She cannot be too available at first because the chase is an important part of “falling in love”.
Bonus #11) You can use the breakup as fuel for a great workout. There is no time a man will hit the weights harder than after a breakup. Especially when she starts dating again. Instead of letting that baloney eat you up let if fuel your fire.

Being an Ass-kicker means you have to cut out all nonsense, that includes friends and relationships that are not beneficial to you. To live like an Ass-kicking Spartan is to live a bare bones, necessity filled life.
There comes a time when you’ve got to re-assess friendships. In the life of an Ass-kicker there just isn’t any room for low-yield relationships. If your friends don’t serve a definite dual purpose then it’s time to let them go.
Dual purpose friendships: you enjoy spending time with the person and you accomplish an activity.
A low-yield friend is a friend that does not serve a purpose. A friend that just wants to ‘hang out’, gossip, use narcotics, whine or talk about themselves or other nonsense. A low-yield friend is an “energy vampire”, someone who drains you of energy by just spending time with you.
A high-yield friend is a friend you can hit the gym with, train MMA or other activity with, learn something from, or accomplish something with. A high-yield friend energizes you.
An easy test to tell a high-yield friend from a low-yield friend is how often you answer the phone when they call. If you continually don’t answer the phone when they call that’s a sign that they need to be given their walking papers. If you typically answer the phone when they call then they can stay.
Who to give the boot to:
Gossips, Loudmouths, Whiners and Negative Nancy’s.
In the life of an Ass-kicker these types are invisible and speak an alien language that only other idiots can understand. Gossips want to chatter about nonsense. They love to work in an office because they have a captive audience for their baloney and can easily infect you with their disease. This is one great reason to leave the corporate life.
Negative Nancy’s just want to be negative and nasty about everything.
If you’ve got some friends like that it’s time to give those chatter-boxes the boot.
How to Deal with Drama:
Drama does not exist in the life of a Spartan. Drama must be invited in, like a Vampire, or it cannot exist in your world. If you have “dramatic” friends give those narcissists the boot. There’s no time for nonsense. If you wanted to hear about drama you could go searching for the latest celebrity gossip.
This is what you tell your chatter-box friends when they call you about nonsense:
“Don’t ever call me about that BS again.”
Click.
Spending time with friends should serve a purpose. You should get activities done. “Hanging out” is usually a big waste of time. Every second you “hang out” is a second you have wasted. “Hanging out” is keeping you from your goals. When your friends call it should be for a specific purpose. They should call only to give you some pertinent information or invite you to an activity such as weightlifting or social activities on a Saturday night after a week of killing.
If you’ve got free time to spare then go and “hang out” for a little while, but it shouldn’t be routine.
Tell your friends if they have non-pertinent information then they have to e-mail you. E-mails are easier to ignore than a ringing phone. A ringing phone should mean business. A phonecall is an intrusion and should have a specific goal and purpose.
Dealing with girlfriends and girl friends.
A girlfriend is a girl you are romantically and physically involved with. Don’t get caught up in silly phone conversations with girlfriends. Limit conversations to 5 or 10 minutes. Don’t waste time with back-and-forth text messaging. They can talk to you at night, in person, when business is taken care of.
A girl friend is a friend who is a girl. There is no reason to have girl friends. Girl friends serve absolutely no purpose. There are only two reasons males have girl friends 1) They’re gay 2) They’re trying to have sex with the girl and they’re stuck in the friend zone - and that’s just a big old waste of time on a massive scale.
Kick the low yield friends out of your life for good.
Keep the high yield friends.
You’ll be glad you did.

God hates a coward and so do I.
I just read about a man who watched his wife get raped by a policeman. The man hid in a closet for two hours so the policeman wouldn’t know he was there. One hour after the policeman left the man called the hospital for help. The man wasn’t a criminal, he was just a coward whom the policeman enjoyed picking on.
If my wife was raped by someone right in front of me I’d put him down like a dog. Two in the back of the head, pop pop. Be the man a policeman, a priest, or a common criminal. If there were no guns, as was the case with this story (it happened in China) then I would use anything I could get my hands on and if no weapons were to be found I would use my bare hands.
I read stories all the time about brave men who killed the rapist of their wife or daughter, men who took justice into their own hands and I salute these men. I sincerely respect men who will take action into their own hands. The police aren’t there to help. No one will help you in times like that. No judge or priest or therapist will unrape your daughter but they will spit in your face and A) Let the rapist go free or B) Tell you to forgive or C) Set up a dialogue between you and the filthy animal who raped your daughter so you can talk about your feelings.
I won’t forgive and I won’t forget. It’s an impossibility that I could ever let that happen to someone I care about. Terror can make you strong or terror can take you over, like the coward hiding in the closet. There is almost no one on this planet that I care about, but there isn’t a soul on this planet that could hurt someone I actually do care about while in my presence.
For all the brave men who took care of business and are now in prison you have my respect and you most assuredly have the undying love and respect of your family. That’s what a hero is. A hero isn’t someone who can play basketball or football really well, single moms aren’t heroes, minorities who left their poor country and set up shop in the land of opportunity aren’t heroes. Men who protect their families at all costs are Heroes with a capital H.
Make no mistake, friend, there are animals out there who love to prey on the weaklings. If you needed a reason to get in the gym and build some strength or learn MMA then I could hardly think of a better one.
Every peaceful, law abiding, family loving man has violence locked up in his heart. There may be a time when you have to let it out. If that time should come, you most certainly should be prepared and know how to use your violence. The filthy animals won’t hesitate to use it against you and yours.

It’s called taking advantage and it’s what winners do.
Other will stand around and cry “Oh my god, the situation is so bad, there’s nothing we can do boo-hoo.”
As they hand you their money for a service you provide you will say “Yeah, I know. Times are tough for lots of folks right now. Just go ahead and sign right there.”
How to tell a winner from a loser:
A loser will say things like “Oh my god! I can’t believe you took advantage of a bad situation!”
A winner will say with pride “I saw an opportunity in a bad situation and I took advantage of it.”
Opportunity usually exists in abundance in bad situations.
Put on your thinking caps and figure out how you can provide goods or services to the downtrodden and you will always have a market. The downtrodden will always be there whining about the bad situation, whining about people who take advantage, and handing out their money to the advantage takers.
Greed is good? No. Freedom is good.
Money is bad? Go ahead and give it to me then.
Debt slavery is for the downtrodden who buy it with zero down at only 7.9% interest for the first year. Financial freedom is for advantage takers.
The downtrodden didn’t get that way because of a lack of opportunity. They got that way because they have a downtrodden mindset and always will until the day they die and then they’ll pass that mindset on to their children.
The rich could lose all their wealth and gain it back within a year because it’s all a mindset.
The downtrodden are losers in the game of money.
The rich are winners in the game of money.
You are going to play the game. You may as well play to win.

For the longest time I didn’t train to my own music. My ipod (given to me by a friend years before) was stolen from my car when some “youth” hoodlums busted the window and I never bothered to buy a new one. I didn’t like the idea of shuffling through the music to find the perfect song, messing with the volume and other settings instead of focusing on my workout.
I was wrong.
I purchased an mp3 player a couple months ago and I noticed an absolutely huge change in the quality of my training. Far more aggressive, lifting heavier and taking shorter rests. To get pumped up I walk around the gym with my mood enhancing tunes until I’m ready to attack the weights and then it’s on!
Music is a necessity in the gym. The right music takes you to a new level. The right music will turn your workout from ‘ok’ or ‘good’ to ‘monster‘.
Music makes a huge difference. Music makes ALL the difference. Music that moves you and makes you want to move puts you in a more aggressive state of mind and helps you hit the weights harder. Music fires you up more than anything.
It wouldn’t matter so much if one were able to work out in silence or to the simple clanking of weights, but that is impossible in almost any gym. All gyms play music for teenage girls, the most inappropriate workout music known to man. Even trying to ignore that baloney it still affects your workout in a negative way. Working out to your own music is the only solution unless you like working out to teeny pop.
Heavy music that pumps you up, Ballads that remind you of pretty little Mary Sue in the 7th grade and flood you with emotion, Hip Hop that has an animal beat, music that transports you into another world, music that FIRES YOU UP - it all helps to push us further in the gym.
The right music can transport you into beast mode in the gym. Music is a way to manufacture a feeling. To feel energized listen to energetic music. To feel happy listen to happy music. To feel sad listen to sad music. To get into the mindset of a gym warrior, listen to a warriors music.
Gym time is no time to be a music snob. Pick the music that pumps you up, not the music that makes you cooler and smarter than everyone else.

Going to get a haircut is an inefficient time-waster.
- You have to drive the the salon
- you have to sign in to reception
- you have to wait for a stylist
- you have to explain what you want (and they never truly understand)
- you have to get your hair washed (the only enjoyable part)
- you have to put up with small talk about whatever nonsense is happening in pop-culture
- you have to put up with them not doing it right the first time “no, it needs to be shorter so I don’t have to come back for a while“
- you have to look at it in two mirrors, then style it, then finally give it the A-OK
- you have to pay and then you have to pay extra (a tip) for them doing their jobs
- you have to drive back home with an itchy neck and an itchy back
- you have to take a shower and change clothes
All in all you’ve wasted at minimum an hour.
Now let’s look at the Spartan way to cut your own hair:
- buy some clippers for the price of one haircut
- cut your hair in the bathroom
- sweep up the mess
- take a shower
- go kick some ass
How to Cut Your Own Hair
Step 1: Buy Some Hair Clippers Here
. All hair clipper sets will come with different length hair guards that can cut your hair at any length you so desire. Most of them come with facial hair trimmer attachments as well, so you can rest assured knowing you can trim your beard and your hair with one apparatus. I picked up my clippers at wal-mart several years ago for about $25 and have been using them ever since. Of course, I have lost most of the guards so I only cut my hair in two lengths: short and really short.
Step 2: Dive right in and cut your hair. One of three things will happen:
1) You will like the haircut.
- If you like the D.I.Y. haircut you can skip the stylist forever.
2) You will do a poor job, panic, and drive to a stylist to fix it.
- Better luck next time. Try again until you get it right.
2) You will have to shave it all off.
- If you decide to shave it off you don’t have to worry about doing anything to your hair for months. Keeping a shaved head saves time on styling and saves money on shampoo and hair gel. With a shaved head you’re ready to walk out the door at any time of the day or night without doing anything to your hair. Win win.
Step 3: Clean up the mess, sweep the floor, take a shower. I usually put a stopper in the sink and cut my hair into the sink, when I’m done I can just scoop the hair out of the sink and throw it away.
Some home haircut tips to remember:
- Cut against the grain.
- Keep pressure on the clippers, if you hold them delicately they will not cut your hair even.
- If you don’t want to do it yourself you can have your girlfriend, your mom, your sister, your best buddy, your wife, or your brother cut it for you.
- It’s just hair, it will grow back in no time. If you make a mistake you won’t even notice it in a weeks time.
- Dry hair is easier to cut with clippers, wet hair is easier to cut with scissors.
Cutting your own hair is just common sense. Pick the length you think you want and test a section first. If it looks good, go over the whole area. If you want the top longer than the sides then just use a different guard for the top. Use the naked guard to trim the hairs on the back of your neck. A second mirror will come in handy but I almost never use one (can’t be bothered to go and buy one) and it always turns out fine. Hair stylists go to haircut school but I have taught girlfriends how to cut my hair in less than 5 minutes. It is just about the easiest thing in the world and my home haircuts turn out better than paid haircuts 100% of the time.
Recap:
- Home haircuts save money.
- Home haircuts save time.
- Paid haircuts cost money.
- Paid haircuts are a waste of time.
- Cutting your own hair makes you look cool 112% of the time.
- Self-sufficiency, DIY, no BS.
- Save that money, save that time.
Simplifying your life makes things so much easier.

In this post you are going to learn how to get BIG the natural way. We will talk about proper training, proper eating, and proper supplementation. We will learn how to go from skinny to jacked, from zero to hero, from little to BIG! We will assume the reader is skinny.
But first…
Chuck Sipes - Panty Wetter
Let me tell you a little story about a guy I know. This guy is jacked. He spent 10 years in the gym daily. He looks exactly like the picture of Chuck Sipes (to the left). We were doing pullups in the gym one day when a guy and a girl came over to talk to us. The guy was running his mouth but the girl wasn’t saying anything, she was just staring at my buddy. I’ve never seen it before or since but I saw her get her little panties wet just by looking at my jacked friend. I saw the lust in her eyes, I saw it in the way she opened her mouth a little, in the way she slightly licked her lips, the way she spread her legs just a little bit more than they should be, in the way she almost imperceptibly thrusted her hips forward. She wet her panties just by looking at my friend. That’s the power of being jacked. That happened 5 years ago but I remember it like it was yesteryday.
A natural trainer has two very solid years to put on maximum muscle size. Gains will be harder to come by after the first two years of training so in those two years it should be a fight to put on the most muscular weight. A skinny natural should be eating, eating and eating as if his life depended on it.
There are two types of skinny guys:
1) Lean Skinny - these types are rail thin but they have no body-fat. Their abs and musculature show all the time, even though they are toothpicks. These types have the best muscle building bodies because it’s very, very hard for them to gain any fat.
2) Skinny-Fat - these types are skinny but have no musculature to speak of. Even though they may be rail thin they usually have something of a fat gut. These guys will have a harder time building a ripped physique.
Why people are skinny:
Being skinny is a matter of not eating enough. Nearly 100% of skinny guys are not big eaters and they eat mostly carbohydrates. They do not eat much protein or fat. It’s impossible to be skinny when eating enough necessary food.
To get big there are two critical components:
Lifting BIG and Eating BIG.
If either are neglected you can expect to either A) Not get big or B) Get fat instead.

Advice from friendly friends and family members is not meant to help you succeed. It’s meant to help you not break waves and go too far beyond the ordinary.
It isn’t their fault, they aren’t mean or deceitful, they really are trying to help - but only in the way they can imagine will help.
They can’t crawl around in your brain and see your vision, drive, or passion. They can only see their own lack of it.
You should never listen to advice from friendly friends and family. You can hear it but you should never listen. Following their advice is akin to deflating a balloon.
You’re doing something out of the ordinary because you don’t want to live an ordinary life with a 9-5 job, mortgage, two car lease payments, monthly cell phone plan, and credit card payments.
The friendly friends and family went the normal route, their advice to you is “This is how you go the normal route..”.
The real advice, the good advice, isn’t pretty, it isn’t nice, it’s usually the opposite of ‘popular opinion’ and it’s how 100% of successful men got that way. They didn’t follow the baloney rules that friendly friends and family follow. They made their own rules and turned a deaf ear to friendly advice from friendly friends and family.
Friendly friends and family will all give you the same advice independently of each other. You’ll say “Yeah, that’s what everyone says”. But take a look at their lives. They aren’t enviable, they are pitiable and if you take their advice it’s exactly where you are headed.
Advice should make you think. It shouldn’t make you say “Yeah, I know what I should do….”
The advice that matters should make you say “Wow! I never thought of that! Everyone else says the opposite.”
The Be/But Advice from friendly friends and family:
Be proud but don’t be arrogant.
Be money conscious but don’t be greedy.
Be courageous but don’t be insane.
Be strong but don’t be a meat-head.
Be passionate but don’t be obsessed.
Be adventurous but don’t be crazy.
Be disciplined but don’t be strict.
Be smart but don’t be a wise-butt.
Work hard but take time to relax.
It’s ok if you fail, we’ll be here waiting for you with open arms.
The BE advice from BOLD & DETERMINED:
Be Proud.
Be Obsessed.
Be Crazy.
Be Selfish.
Be Strict.
Be after Money.
Be after Freedom.
Be Deaf to Bullshit.
BUT nothing. Here it is and I’m going after it with everything I’ve got. All the friendly advice in the world isn’t worth a dime to me.
Go after what you want and don’t take baloney advice from anyone who hasn’t succeeded in doing the exact same thing you are trying to do. You can never fail because you will never give up. Even if you die trying.
Moderation is not the key to success, it’s the key to mediocrity.

The internet is a wonderful, phenomenal tool. One of the greatest inventions of all time.
Anything you want, the internet can provide.
Anything you want to learn you can learn online. The knowledge of the world is free to all or comes at a small price.
But we take it too far. We all do. We spend our time playing on social networking sites and pretending we’re cooler than we are, or we spend our time complaining on social networking sites. Or we spend our time looking at pornography. Or we spend 3 hours watching funny videos.
We spend our time in a fake world, a fake reality, talking to a computer screen, talking to other fakers sitting behind their computer. We walk outside and instead of saying hello to a pretty girl we bury ourselves in our phones, and it’s just as well because she’s even more obsessed with her fantasy.
All that time spent on baloney could be used to learn or earn. On the internet we can learn how to earn. Any industry we want to know about we can find on the internet. Any company we want to connect with we can find on the internet. Any industry we want to break into we can find on the internet. Anything we want to sell we can sell on the internet.
The first step to saying goodbye to the nine-to-five jive is research, research and more research and it can all be done form the internet. Learn, learn, learn until it’s time to earn, earn, earn.
We could learn from it and then put our plan into action and earn from it.
All that wasted time spent on baloney could be used to advance our freedom from the nine-to-five jive.
If you can’t learn from it or earn from it then burn it. Let it go. Light it on fire and watch it die. It’s a waste of time and it’s a waste of life.
If it has no tangible, positive results then burn it up.
Leave the social networking sites for the lonely people, for the lost people. It’s for the narcissists. It’s for the people who have nothing else. They can have it. Unless you can earn from it you don’t need it.
The old friends worth connecting with aren’t playing around on social networking sites all day. The ones who actively use social networking use it for whining, complaining, cry-baby’ing, and ego boosting.
They live online, but online living is no living at all.
Internet stars actively promote social networking for one very important reason - they earn from it. It gives them tangible results. It’s a cash cow because of all the people spending every day and night obsessed with their fantasy world. What the average Joe doesn’t know is that social networking is a big, big money-maker for the internet entrepreneurs.
“But it’s a great way to connect with friends and family!”
No it isn’t. People connected with friends and family for a really long time before the internet. Social networking is a great way for smart people to make a whole lot of money. That’s what it’s for and that’s how a smart person should use it.
There are three kinds of users of all social networking sites:
a) Earners: Big Dogs who make Big money from the social networking sites and who have the most followers
b) Learners: Small Dogs who are actively trying to become Big Dogs, they’re learning from the Bog Dogs how to do it
c) Cash Cows: People handing out money without even knowing it, the smart people capitalize on the cash cows
E-mail is a perfectly efficient way to say “hi” to friends and family and leaves plenty of free time to learn and earn.
The internet can be a tool of freedom or a vicious slave-master. Choice is ours. We know how the smart people use it. You could the the man behind the screen making the money or you can be the man in front of the screen handing out your money without even knowing it. There’s ass to kick on the internet - if you aren’t the kicker then you’re the one getting kicked. Leave the positive and cut out the baloney.
If you can’t learn or earn from it, baby, it’s time to burn it.
Coming Soon: BOLD & DETERMINED is going tell you how to make money on the internet.
