Traditional birthday-post!
Back in the day, I used to dwell more on getting a year older. To feel better about it, I thought about the personal achievements and progress over the past year.
Now, I basically only care about regime change (in addition to the wellbeing of my family). This will be for another post, but what I can say for now is that we have advanced greatly metapolitically. We need to sustain this momentum and ensure that it reaches the political as well.
Now, to the main insight:
When a man hits 35 (give or take a few years), he can go two ways – he either starts to deteriorate or he continues to develop.
From my own observations, it is all a matter of whether the man is committed to a higher mission. Or indeed if he has one at all (there are plenty of men drifting around aimlessly).
Looking at some legendary historical figures, such as Leonidas and Jean de Valette (or indeed Donald Trump – who is a high-performing man whether you agree with his politics or not), it is clear that you can remain a force of nature as long as you have a higher quest fuelling you with energy.
Leonidas was 60 at Thermopylae. Jean de Valette was 70 at the Great Siege of Malta. Donald Trump is 80.
There are plenty of more examples – the point is, again, that you can continue being high-thumos as long as you have a higher purpose that you remain committed to.
As for myself, as I turn 37 000 years, I still feel young (and fearless and full of joy) and understand with perfect clarity that there are many decades of hard work ahead. I do not mind working hard. What I do mind is seeing my civilisation destroyed and my people tormented.
Am I white-pilled or black-pilled? This is a question I sometimes get asked. It does not matter. It only matters that we continue to shift the Moral Framework and Zeitgeist, and that we try to get good people into institutions of power.
I know I am repeating myself, but since this is the path (at least the main path) forward, it is worth repeating.
Lastly, thank you kindly for all of your kind wishes.
Full steam ahead. Onwards!
