Today at the gym there was only myself and another fellow, a portly man, “working out”. Sunday is a rather easy gym day for me, I just go in and have fun. I started my workout with deep squats. The other fellow in the gym was sitting at a chest press machine occasionally pushing some light weight, but mostly just sitting.
I am doing set after set of heavy, ass-to-grass squats, adding weight with each set. The fellow is just staring at me the whole time while he sits on his machine. After about 10 sets of heavy squats (singles) I decide to superset sprints and squats. I warm up with a light jog the length of the gym and back. He watches me. I hit a set of squats. He watches me. I do another warmup run. He watches me.
I do my sprints - the length of the gym and back as fast as I can. Then I go for a set of squats. He moves to another machine, sits down, and keeps watching me. I finish 5 sets of sprints and squats and he is still sitting on his machine, watching me, wondering to himself “Why can’t I look like that guy?”
GYM RULES FOR KILLERS AND REAL DEALERS:
1) Get off your ass. Sitting down is for the lazy. Winners stand. If you want to sit down go back to your couch.
2) Excuses are for assholes. I’m naturally skinny-fat with long monkey arms and a thin bone structure. Boo fucking hoo. If I can build something you can build something.
3) Pick up something heavy. Put it down. Do it again.
4) Don’t quit when it gets hard. That’s when it starts to get good. Keep going.
5) Sweating is good for you. If you ain’t sweatin’ you’re just bullshittin’. Especially if it’s summer. In Winter you can wear clothes that will help you sweat.
6) Have fun with it. You don’t need to do the exact same routine and exact same exercises day after day. You just need to give each exercise your all.
7) If you can’t bench or squat your bodyweight you don’t have any business playing around on machines. After you develop some strength is when you will get benefit from machines, not before.
8) It’s all in the mind. That’s where the battle is won or lost.
9) Never listen to the bullshit about “overtraining”. Tell Jim Bob, who grew up on a farm baling hay every morning and has shoulders as wide as his wingspan and forearms like bowling pins, about overtraining and he’ll laugh in your face. “Overtraining” is an excuse to be lazy and out of shape.
10) Have a nice day.

You have two options: You will get married or you won’t get married. If you will get married then this article is for you. We will not review whether or not you should get married but we will review how to pick the right wife.
Picking the right wife is of utmost importance. Marriage is a life-long commitment and requires a great deal of forethought. Getting married without a plan and without any forethought is a terrible decision.
Getting married is a business decision. Marriage is a contract between two entities. You’ve got to enter into it with the ruthless mind of a determined businessman for it to work.
You’ve got to pick the right wife like a businessman picks a company to invest in. It shouldn’t be left to chance (“love”) - you’ve got to be pro-active, know what you want and then go after it.
Marriage isn’t about love or connecting with your soul-mate. Those are inventions of TV and movies. Marriage is an exchange of resources. Your wife shall provide A and you will provide B. If you’re wife doesn’t, or won’t, provide her share then she should not have the privilege of marriage with you.
Marriage is a contract and you’ve got to try your hardest to make sure that contract is re-inforced. You cannot make the best decision when you’re emotionally love-sick like a 16 year old school girl. No businessman who wants to stay in business will sign a contract in an emotional state of mind and no man who wants to stay married will sign all of his power away just because he loves her. It takes rational, clear-headed planning and thinking to pick the right wife material.
There are only two reasons a man should ever get married:
1) He wants to start a family.
2) His career or political ambitions demand he has a wife (he is interested in going into politics). We will not talk about this except to say that a political wife is for show and show only. For this article we will assume the reader falls into the first category.
There is absolutely no other reason to ever get married. Love is not a reason to get married. When you get married you sign all your power over to your wife - it must be of some benefit for you to do so. That benefit is to grow old with your family.
The goals of a marriage should be:
1) Minimize the chance of divorce theft and child robbery.
2) Maximize wife’s happiness with her wifely and motherly duties (the complete opposite of everything you will see, read or hear). It’s not about empowerment (or any other buzzword designed to kill the modern family), she should be completely devoted to her family. True happiness for a woman comes from her family, it does not come from her career, or her “independence”, or her sexually liberated point of view.
3) Have a healthy, happy family with well educated, respectful children - non-sissified sons and girlish daughters with strong family values.
Be honest about what you want:
Most men don’t want an “independent, empowered” woman. That’s code for bitchy slut with a chip on her shoulder.
We all want a sweet, nice, joyful, feminine woman who treats her man like a King.
Bullshitters will suck up to the dregs and say the opposite in a futile attempt to get some action. These poor suckers get shit on the most and never understand why. Hear this gentlemen - women love men who go after what they want, who don’t take a woman’s BS seriously, and treat her like a woman, not like a man in drag. Women hate suck-ups as much as they hate stepping in dog poop on the street. To a woman, a male suck-up is less than human.
Divorce:
There is no denying that marriage is a very, very bad deal. When you get married you immediately give your wife all the power over your money and your children. “No-fault” divorce really means “his-fault” divorce. If you wife is to decide she wants a divorce she can have all the benefits of being married and none of the drawbacks. Divorce is theft from the man. It’s a redistribution of wealth from men to women. She can live off of your paycheck via alimony and child support and she can keep your children and raise them in a single-mother or step-daddy household. She has the complete and full support of Papa Government behind her. In the eyes of the law she can do no wrong and you can do no right. And there is nothing you can do about any of that. That’s why you have to choose the right wife in the first place to eliminate much of that risk.
Steps should be taken to minimize the chances of divorce. You must take extra special precaution to choosing the right wife so you can avoid the possibility of a financially devastating and family ruining divorce.
When to get married:
The best time for a man to get married is after 30 years of age. At that age he has had a long time to live life, earn money, think of what he wants in a wife, and settle down a little bit. The ages of 20-30 are the wild years but after the 30 year mark men will tend to settle down. Most men under 30 years of age aren’t mature enough to make the best decision about who to spend their life with.
Now remember, 30 years old is the starting age to think of marriage. That doesn’t mean you should get married at 30 or by 30. Anytime between 30-45 is a good time to tie the knot. Between the ages of 30-45 is when a mans marriage value is at its highest.
We have spoken about the need for a good woman here. In the following section we will look at how to determine good women from bad women.

In airports all over the world you will see men and women dressed like imbeciles: they wear a giant backpack on their back (it’s absolutely huge and filled to the brim) and then on their front they wear another regular sized backpack like they’re carrying a baby.
Today I’m going to show you how to pack with less clutter and less junk so you can travel light, not be bogged down with 50 lbs of luggage, leave room for souvenirs and – most importantly – have an adventure of a lifetime. To accomplish this you’ve got to eliminate all the extra baggage, you only need to have carry-on luggage (luggage that is not checked with an airline, it is taken onto the plane with you), and you’ve got to make your luggage as light as possible. You need a backpack and possibly a smaller day bag at most. When travelling you do not want to spend all your time carrying 50 lbs of luggage and/or looking after all that luggage, you want time to explore and have a good time. All that luggage gets in the way.
Below is a list of the essential travel items:

There’s a nasty little disease going around called being Broke as a Joke. It affects millions of men every year. One unfortunate side effect of this disease is that it causes men to whine like little babies instead of taking action. This article will correct this, however, it will be quite harsh. Broke as a jokesters need a real kick in the ass, they don’t need any coddling.
If you want to stop being broke as a joke you’ve got to do the following:
You should be spending all your free time either A) Learning or B) Making shit happen. The third option, C, is being broke as a joke.
Learning:
To learn your industry you should read every book you can get your hands on, every blog you can find, every forum on the subject, every success story you can find, and talk with as many experts as you can.
You should be reading and learning about your industry night and day. First thing in the morning and last thing before bed. If you have a regular job you should be learning about your industry when your boss isn’t looking.
Making Shit Happen:
To make shit happen all you’ve got to do is start and not give up. You don’t need to learn your industry for longer than two months before you dive in head first. Some broke as a jokesters will say things like “I’ve been learning for two years so it’s time I get the ball rolling” or “I’ve been learning for two years and I just can’t seem to make anything happen“. If you want to get in shape you can’t read a bunch of goddamn books on physical fitness and expect to get into shape, you gotta get your flabby butt in the gym and work. Same with business. You gotta learn all you can, cram it into a month or two, and then get that motherfucking ball rolling.
Take the first step, and then take more steps every single solitary day.
Spending Money to Make Money:
If you have ever said this statement “I’m not going to spend any money to learn this. It should be free. I refuse to spend any money to learn my industry” then you should slap yourself in the face because that’s the mentality of a loser. If you aren’t willing to spend a dime in your industry you will never, ever make a dime in your industry. Forget the loser mentality of never spending any money and hoping to somehow make money. You will have to spend money so just accept it. At first you may want to just buy books and other information but as time goes on you will need to spend more and more money.
Chronic Broke as a Jokesters will always say the same two things - “I have not made much money” and “I don’t have any money to purchase any information or services which will help me“.
On the opposite end of this spectrum are the people who will spend countless thousands of dollars in their desired industry and never take action. These people are the information junkies, the seminar junkies who will wait in anticipation for a new product they can buy instead of taking any action. They’ll do this for years and years, just buy products and wonder when it’s going to be “their time” to get started. There are people who wish to be in the Real Estate industry who go to 18 paid seminars over a 3 year period and haven’t ever bought a house.
Tips:
Cut down on your expenses so you can spend on what is important. What is important? Buying information or services which will help your business.
Get off of Facebook, Twitter and all the other social media sites, get off the porn sites, cut out the TV watching. You’re just wasting your time when you could be doing something much more valuable. Your time should be spend either eating, shitting, lifting, learning or doing.
Stop waking up so damn late. Some of you broke as a jokesters wake up at 11am and then wonder to yourself when you’re “going to catch a break”. You aren’t gonna catch shit, you gotta make it happen.
START no longer than two months after making the decision about your industry. Spend one to two months learning only and then make the first step. You are going to learn infinitely more by doing than you will by reading. You will need the knowledge base that reading gives you but you must get your boots on the ground and actually do. You can read all the books you want about how to milk a Cow but unless you’ve ever had your hands on a Cows teat you don’t know shit about milking cows.
Download 30 Days of Discipline and develop some winning habits.
If you’re broke as a joke don’t leave a comment. Get to work. Come back when you have made a few bucks and then you can comment.

Waking up early is probably the best thing you can ever do if you’re trying to become wealthy or free from the shackles of the corporate world.
To get started making some real money you’ve got to put in the time anywhere you can get it. For most that is early morning when you have no other distractions and have a fresh, clear mind. 4 hours of work per day is more than plenty to get started. Imagine waking up at 5am and having all of your work done by 9am. You have the entire rest of the day to enjoy as you wish.
The best way to wake up early is to have a reason to wake up early. I started waking up early because I wanted to. I had been wanting to do it for a long time. I would wake up early one day and then wake up later the next day and the day after until I was back to waking up at my normal time. So I made it my goal to catch the sunrise every single morning and before you know it I was up every single day watching the sun rise. If I had no goal I would have just stayed in bed.
But sunrise still wasn’t early enough for my liking so I found a gym partner who wasn’t a bullshitter and wanted to get in at 5:30 every morning. I started waking up at 5am because I met my gym partner at the gym every morning at 5:30. Even if I wanted to stay in bed there is no way I’m not going to meet someone at the gym at the time I said I would.
Since then, waking up early is just habit and routine. Heck, if I wake up at 7:30am I feel like I wasted a whole day.
The morning is when you have no disturbance, you are completely free to create and work as you wish. The whole world is sound is asleep in their beds and you’re wide awake ready to kill it.
Eventually they’ll all say to you “Oh, I wish I could do what you do. I just don’t have the time.” And you won’t do anything but silently laugh at them.
Early Birds Vs. Night Owls
An Early Bird is one who wakes up early and thrives in the morning. A Night Owl is someone who is most productive in the evening or night.
I’m an early bird. I don’t do any work at night. None. I eat dinner and then climb into bed around 8 or 9 every single night.
But I wasn’t always an early bird. I was an extreme night owl for most of my life. Literally going to bed sometimes at 7 or 8am. I became an early bird simply by desiring it.
How to Become an Early Bird
Becoming an early bird is as easy as making the conscious decision to become an early bird. Say the following words to yourself “I’m an early bird. I like waking up early. That’s when I get the most work done.” It doesn’t matter if it’s true now. The more you say it the more it will become reality.
When I first started lifting weights I hated it. I dragged myself to the gym. At a certain point I just started lying to myself and saying “I love working out. I can’t wait to go work out” and that’s exactly what happened in a very short period of time.
How to Wake Up Early Everyday
- Make the decision to become an early riser
- Have a reason to wake up early (i.e. have something to work on or have a gym partner waiting for you at the gym every morning)
- Be in bed at the same time each night
Make the decision and force yourself up at 5am the first day. That night you will likely be tired earlier than normal. That’s good. You will need to start going to bed earlier, and preferably at the same time, each night.
To be able to be up at 5am every day and be refreshed you must go to bed earlier than normal. Sleeping from midnight to 5am will not leave most people feeling refreshed. But sleeping from 9pm to 5am will leave most people refreshed and ready to start the day at 5am.
It’s a good idea to be in bed by 9pm every night. I’m in my bed under the covers by 9pm every night without fail. I’m often in bed by 8pm. The amount of sleep needed varies by person, but you should know how much sleep you need to function at your best.
What Are Your Priorities?
Is it your priority to go out every night to get blackout drunk?
Is your priority going out every night to pick up hot babes?
Is your priority to sit at home on the computer and chat on facebook all night?
If it is your priority to make something of yourself then you will make it happen by waking up early.
You can read a hundred internet articles about how to wake up early but if it isn’t your priority, your real priority, you’re just wasting your time. If it isn’t your priority to wake up early and get to killing then you’re just bullshitting and pretending.
The 5 second version of “How to Wake Up Early Everyday”:
Have a purpose and a reason to wake up early everyday.

Everyone loves a humble guy. That’s because no one has to compete with a humble guy. Everyone hates a big ego guy, because a big ego guy points out your own shortcomings, lack of skill, desire, heart, dedication and discipline.
All champions have big ego’s. Without a big ego they would have never become a champion. They would have been just like Joe Average crying about the ego of Chuck Champion.
Ego isn’t a bad thing. Ego is a must. A big ego is just high self-esteem. All champions have egos. It’s the ankle-biters at the bottom who cry about “humility being a virtue”.
You cannot be a competitor, and a winner, without ego. The desire to be a winner at all costs is what drives champions. To a champion, losing is worse than anything else. Losing is too damaging to the ego.
When champions lose their ego and become humble is when they start their decline. You know what’s humbling? Losing. Losing is humiliating. Winners don’t lose. Only losers lose.
Here is the real deal about humility: You show it to your superiors. You do not show it to your inferiors. Champions have no superiors.
Humility is for the humble. They can have it.
Show me a guy who has no ego and I’ll show you a guy who’s comfortable taking 7th place out of 7 contestants. I’ll show you a guy who’s comfortable with the taste of shit in his mouth. You cannot be competitive and not have any ego. You can be non-competitive and have no ego, but so what. That means you are a spectator. That means you’re a critic.
When you want to learn something that’s when you can be humble. When you’re already King Shit you can act like it.
If humility were truly a virtue we would turn on our TV’s and worship humble and dirty street beggars, on their knees begging and crying for pennies, instead of worshiping big ego sports stars, actors and TV personalities.
Don’t confuse braggadocio with ego. Ego is the all-consuming desire to win, to not lose, and pushing yourself past the limit to do it. Bragging is arrogance and empty boasting. Ego is pride.
You’ve got to have ultra-confidence in yourself in your specific field. You can be humble all day about the shit you don’t know anything about, but when it comes to your area of expertise you should be Top Dog, King Shit, Cock of the Walk, A-#1, Big Man on Campus. You can feed the ankle-biters some scraps every now and again, after you’ve eaten your fill.
Be proud of you accomplishments. Whatever they may be.
Someone complains about your ego just ignore them. Don’t let them drag you on down to loser-town.
They say: You’re so full of yourself!
You say: Thank you for the compliment.

1) Be Tall - Women want to look up to a man, literally and figuratively.
2) Be Rich - A rich man is equivalent to a beautiful woman. Have you ever seen a fat girl riding shotgun in a Lamborghini?
3) Be Handsome - You will find some internet sites that bewilderingly proclaim “Looks don’t matter”. We’ll call those guys virgins. Looks matter - make yourself look the best you can.
4) Be Jacked - I have seen the power of being jacked with my own two eyes. Now I’m no Zeus replica but I’m in shape and when women touch my arms and my abs the first thing they say, with huge eyes, is “Oh my God!”.
5) Be Highly Confident - You’ve seen the guy in the bar with the sideways baseball cap and the blonde on his arm just eating it up. I got some sour news for some guys: Women love the guys you call douchebags. Because they are confident enough to be a douchebag without a care what anyone else thinks.
6) Do Not Supplicate to Her - Tease her like a little sister. If you tease your little sister and don’t take her seriously she is going to look at with you giant eyes and a huge smile. But even your little sister will shit all over you if you act in a spineless and dickless manner around her.
7) Be Sarcastically Funny but not Self-Deprecating - Women absolutely love to be teased, but they do not love when you make fun of yourself. She wants to look up to you so don’t tear yourself down, even in a joking manner.
8) Do Not Be Needy - Needy people are annoying to everyone.
9) Don’t be a Nice Guy - You don’t have to be mean or rude to women, you just don’t ever want to be thought of as a “nice guy” or a “great guy”. That conversation always starts and ends the same: “I think you’re a great guy…. and someday you’re going to meet a woman who will make you happy“.
10) Be Pre-occupied with Your Own World - Make her a part of your world. Whatever you are excited about she will genuinely become excited about as well. Do not become a part of her world - do not stay at home and watch chick flicks and tv shows about gay dancers or whatever that shit is that’s popular right now. Do your own thing and make sure it is a priority for you. If you have nothing going on then start a website and work on that.
11) Don’t be Too Available - I am not saying play some game where you don’t answer every 4th call. I am saying genuinely be too busy to take her calls or to see her sometimes. Remember, you don’t need to rush to call her back 13 seconds after she called you. It can wait as long as you need.
12) Have Excellent Style - Give her an excuse to come and talk to you. “Wow, I love your scarf / shirt / jacket whatever“.
13) Make Decisions - When she says “what do you want for dinner?” you say “Fried pork ribs“. Don’t play the “I dunno, what do you want?” game.
14) Be Aggressive in Bed - Women do not like timidity, especially in the bedroom. Be a Gentleman in public, be a caveman in private. This is also true for women: Be a lady in public and a whore in private. Here is an extra tip: Women absolutely love to be objectified. But only by winners.
15) Do Not Fall for internet Pick-Up Artist (PUA) scams - Those programs are written by societies losers for other losers. And they don’t work.
16) Do not take advice from women about how to win a woman’s heart - They will lie to your face and tell you to be nice, buy her things, bring her roses and all the other baloney they know doesn’t work. They will also lie to other women and say things like “no, you aren’t fat! You should eat more! Your haircut doesn’t make you look like a boy, it’s super cute!“.
17) Give up Masturbation and Internet Porn or Cut Down Tremendously - This will do wonders for your confidence, your energy levels, your ambition and your charisma. Read all about it here.
18) Don’t Be Scared to Say Hi - Picking up women is simply a numbers game. If you see a pretty girl on the street, and she gives you some eye contact, go ahead and say “hi”. “Hello” is a bit formal, “hi” is much better. To get over that fear of talking to women make a deal with yourself to say hi to 5 girls one day, 6 girls the next day, 7 girls the next and so on until it’s a matter of habit. Next thing you know you’re Casanova.
Pick 5-7 of the above traits and you will do ok with women.
The real deal truth is that you need to concentrate on your career (money), you need to concentrate on your physique and health, you need to take care of yourself, you need to be the master of your own domain, you need to bring her into your world and not go into her world (like watching chick flicks every Friday night), and you need to hold yourself to a masculine standard. If you do not have a pussy you do not need to be in touch with your “feminine side”. If you worship the ground she walks on, she will not respect you. If you don’t worship the ground she walks on, she will worship the ground you walk on. And everybody’s happy.

Wouldn’t you like to become location independent and work from anywhere in the world right from your laptop?
Most people probably would.
If I were a smart man I would sell you this information, but I’m stupid and I’m going to give it to you for free.
What is location independence, anyway?
Location independence is a cool buzzword that means you make money from the internet and you do some travelling.
So what’s the secret to becoming location independent? It must be really hard to make all that money to afford traveling all the time, huh?
Before I tell you the secret, let me go over a few things with you….
Location independence doesn’t really mean you can work from anywhere in the world, any time. What location independence really means is that you can work from a 3rd world country or countries.
The vast majority of location independent bloggers do not make very much money by western standards. They are not flying back and forth from New York City to London to Paris to Sydney.
Location independent entrepreneurs spend most of their time in Southeast Asia or South America.
Why do they spend their time in Southeast Asia and South America?
Because it’s very, very cheap to live and spend time in those countries, those countries are fun, and location independent entrepreneurs can’t afford to live in high priced countries.
How much does it cost to live in Southeast Asia or South America?
A whole lot less than you probably make every two weeks.
You can live in and travel around Southeast Asia and South America for between $500-$1,000 USD per month. And you can live very well on that money, way better than the locals.
Which is great because most location independent entrepreneurs make between $500-$1,000 USD per month.
That’s the secret.
You don’t have to make very much money to live very well in those countries.
How do location independent entrepreneurs make their money?
That’s easy. They have blogs and ebooks, just like this article, that they sell to you so you can learn how to become location independent just like them. For only $39.95 per month you can learn how to become location independent just like them!
Being “Location Independent” is their job. That’s how they make their money.
Do you want to become location independent?
Great! All you have to do is make the decision, and then sell yourself, your articles, your e-books, your forum, your whatever to other people who also want to become location independent.
How can I do that?
First, you start by learning the ins and outs of blogging. Check out the No Bullshit Guide to Making Money Online and use the resources to start your first blog(s).
If you are new to internet work then you will need some time to learn before you jump on a plane to the Philippines.
But it can be done, and it can be done quite quickly if you put in the time and effort.
Making $500-$1,000 per month is chump change and any person reading this article can do it. The question is do you want to?
There are much better ways to make money than by becoming a location independent entrepreneur.
But there are no other ways, that I know of, to go and travel the world and have it paid for.
How can you get started?
Think of it like this: People want information. What information can you provide?
Everyone is an expert in something. Everyone has particular hobby they are knowledgable about.
If not, then you can learn about something and write about your findings.
Turn it into a nice package and sell it.
