Perfection is the enemy of good.
by @Kaari

Lifefuel / Motivation Perfection is the enemy of good.

Apr 16, 2025

TLDR: worrying about obtaining perfection is impossible and is out of your control, there’s no point wasting time trying to obtain it, focus on getting good results instead of going overboard and ‘flying too close to the sun’.

This more goes out to those who are like me who struggle with trying to obtain perfection instead of leaving good enough alone.

This can be applied to all avenues in life, but in this case I will apply it to looksmaxxing. I used to (and still do) struggle with stressing over trying to chase perfection, letting the BP take over my life constantly getting me...

The term “white pill” is used to describe a positive or optimistic outlook on the life of incels , despite their involuntary celibacy. , it is is based on the idea that “incels can improve their lives and find happiness, even if they never have sex or a romantic relationship”. the white pill is different from the black pill, which is a fatalistic and pessimistic view that incels are doomed by their genetics and society . which does not benefit your mind if you are an incel .

This is what works for me, this might not work for you but it's always worth a try.

why is growth important?

By staying stagnant as a person, we can destroy our relationships, miss out on opportunities and limit our potential.

Growth is an important factor for communication and as a byproduct increases life quality hugely. As the saying goes "happy wife, happy life" I think the same can be said about any relationship you have. You wouldn't want to be around someone who had a bad personality or who is a horrible person chances are.

illusion of routine perfection

Sep 16, 2024

There are Buddhists who describe the middle path, the path of balance, as a bobbing between the extremes of a river: you never stay perfectly in the middle of the path, but your balance between the extremes never definitely exceeds beyond the middle.
And that's enough.

In today's world, there is the illusion of people, routines, lives in perfect harmony of time and performance. But it is just that, an illusion.

the discipline of exact times and outputs is not reality. reality is the consistency of trying for a goal and, over time, accumulating unpredictably incalculable efforts until...

Boys, there's no easy way to tell you this. But what you're being taught about "Modern women" and the (attention whore; cheating; immature) behaviors they have is an exaggeration and a LIE. I've always thought deeply about messages being given to myself and other young men within the past couple years but I've come to realize that we are being twisted and manipulated to being the very kinds of people we are taught to HATE.

Why being NT should be your priority.

1. You’ll never be chad.

I’ve been down the blackpill hole like most of you here. Obsessing over looks, and sure, there’s truth in some of it. But the constant doom, the feeling of being permanently broken, the “I’ll never make it” loop genuinely feels like a mental prison.

Realize your brain is addicted to negative loops

The blackpill mindset feeds on repetition. You read the same content, reinforce the same beliefs and dig deeper into hopelessness. That’s not truth — it’s mental conditioning.

You literally determine your own value. There is no one else that cares for you except yourself."My family and friends?" No. No one actually cares for you.
Just reconsider this: how many of your friends will be sad 1 year after your death? Yeah, as you thought, none.

You should value yourself because no one else will. Valuing yourself is the most important thing in having confidence, hope, and belief.

Hypothesis Confidence Is A Result

Why You’re Stuck

What’s the one thing that holds most people back? Confidence. Or rather, the lack of it. But here’s the good news: it’s more fixable than you think. Why? Because confidence is a mental state, and just like you change your clothes each day, you can change your thoughts.

If you can talk yourself into fear, you can also talk yourself into courage. The same mind that builds mental walls can also tear them down. If you’re capable of constructing a tower of doubt, you’re just as capable of dismantling it.

Society keeps pushing this idea that if you don't conform to it you are labeled as a "lazy" person and looked down upon, but what does being "lazy" really mean?

First off, what does laziness mean?

Laziness is an emotional or mental disinclination to exert effort, characterized by a reluctance to work or engage in activities despite having the ability to do so.

In other words it means that you do not do something when you could do it. This type of behavior highly correlates with good risk management abilities.

Reprogramming your brain to do hard work

Jan 3, 2026

Some of the stuff I say might not make sense but these are all from my experience and stuff I’ve done which helped and hopefully help you too

•Finish what you start.
You get loads of dopamine after completing tasks. Chasing quick hits of dopamine makes your brain think avoidance is safer than completion. Cycle repeats. Every small wins requires your brain.

•Boring breaks.
Dopamine is the chemical that causes motivation. After doing tasks and scrolling,gaming,eating unhealthy food as a break means the task won’t be as exciting instead walk around,stretch,walk,make a cup of tea

Hello guys, today I’ll talk about Mike Mentzer and his unique way of training.
I’ve personally tested it — and yes, it actually works.

Before we dive into his methods, you need to understand your muscle fiber type:
Are you more slow-twitch dominant or fast-twitch dominant?

Practically, slow-twitch muscles are good for endurance, while fast-twitch muscles are good for explosive strength. Most muscle gains and size increases happen by working the fast-twitch muscles.

Why does this matters? In unga bunga language: Lift heavy? 5-9 Times? Absolute failure? Muskles...

1. COUNT YOUR CHEMICALS, NOT YOUR CALORIES

Your body is like a forest. You have a microbiome, and your gut bacteria mediates the brain like you wouldn't believe. That's why when you fast, you grow new braincells. If you clean your brain, you allow the shifting of synapses and your neuro response goes down.

2. WHAT TO EAT

Single ingredient foods only. Have you ever tried fucking kale before? Because I sure didn't. I gagged it up in a sink for a week because of how disgusting it tasted. I ate goyslop all the time- try to go from goyslop to kale.

It has occurred to me that plenty of people take for granted the sheer beauty that nature possess. Whenever possible, I urge all of you to get outside, deep in nature, to an area with good air quality, and simply walk. It's astounding to me how simple and reliving walking in nature is. Life feels so much better when you get outside and observe nature. A message to all forum rotters: step out into nature and watch yourself feel better in real time. This is the simple method for (at least) periodic happiness.

Working on your mentality, approach to life, mood, and spiritual/ mental growth can genuinely help you "ascend". In this case it's more of a transcendence. Once you can choose to be happy, see yourself in your desired reality, and see a different view or "plane" of existence, you can sort of shift reality to see it any way you like.
