My friends, if you don't accept that you are alone and that life sucks, and that reality is very disappointing. Then you're gonna be so unfortunately disappointed and lifes gonna suck even more for you than if you embrace the fact and you expect it. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the sheer podcast. I'm your host, Austin creator, my friends. You know today's show. Is going to be a little different. The reason I say that is because honestly really late for me where I. When I'm recording this. You know what? I'm gonna be totally honest with you guys. I wasn't planning on doing. Reason being, not because I didn't want to. Because I'm feeling sick, #1 been having family over #2 and #3. I mean, #3 not more personal business, you know women. But. My friends. I had a realization moment not that long ago and it made me. Realize. Myself, now I gotta do it. You know why? How many needs to hear this? He needs to hear this. I don't know if it's one of those amazing couple supporters I have who are fantastic, by the way, or if it's somebody who's never listened to the show before, they need to hear this. Maybe, I don't know. All I know is somebody needs to hear. And that's why we're I'm not going to show videos, though, and I'm going to do just a short little encouragement type of. My friends. These men, we gotta accept reality. What? It is disappointing. You know, I could sit here and tell you that. Ohh, don't worry. Stuff gets better. No, that doesn't always get better. No, and honestly. You know, I'm getting into one of those moods and I have this every once in a while. Listen to me for any longer than. You know, last couple of months, you'll you'll know this to be true, but I go through these ups and downs ever since I. I told the story earlier this week, actually. I was in a mental hospital for 28 days couple of years ago. I was still in the military and that was when I hit rock bottom and every once in a while those old feelings tend to come back. Why? Because reality is not disappointing. You know, it's easy for guys on the side of the Internet talk about all these three or fours be tripping, you know? And and I get it. They they are. They totally are. Let me tell you something right now. If all you're focusing on is women. Sorry man, but you doing your life wrong. Women will always be there. They're always at the end of the finish line. For those of you who are actually willing to put in the work and do something with your life and not just sit around doing not doing Jack. My friends, I was talking to one of my best friends and he told me that I'm one of my friends who I've known for. He's been out of work. He wants the girlfriend. He can't find one and he's been down on his luck. He's not having a good time. And I thought to myself, how many dudes are in that position right now? How many men? Show of hands have been down now. They've been down bad and they wish that somebody was there to help them. They wish that somebody was there to bail them out. There was a woman there to help build with them. Women don't want to build any more. Don't tell me ever did that back in the day when they had no choice. But today, do whatever they want, then go on the Internet, make millions of dollars and and parlay it into real estate. A thing on Twitter today. Talking about how black and and but, but I think it's like 2040 Black Rock and only fan skeezers will own like 69% of the market in real estate. Think I'm making it up. I wish I was. My friends, we need to really realize that life sucks, and once we accept that life sucks, it get. These. Once we accept the fact that reality is harsh, unforgiving, and then at the end of the day it's not going to get better for us, we just have to deal with it. We have to adapt to it why I preach this message, especially around the church, as the church is disappointing the church. Is always gonna tell men the man up and the women can get away with whatever the hell they want because they're women. I mean, women don't like. Act like human beings. No, they're closer to angels in the minds. Of these bucks. And so we gotta get used to that. You know, they get used to the fact that most men are gumps and simps, and they're going to side with women. And then I'm never going to see what your side ever, no matter how much sense you make, no matter how many times you try to explain it rationally, they won't listen to. Don't think you're crazy. They won't listen to you. The women will gaslight you and thinking that you're crazy even though you can see it with your eyes. And don't even get me started on the economy. The economy sucks before long. AI is going to take over everything except for the very small majority of jobs. And you're going to be stuck with nothing. I hope I'm wrong about that. Truly I do. I guarantee you I'm not. And my friends, look, we need to understand that. Reality is harsh, unforgiving. And the minute that we accept it, we grew on, we get it. We don't just sit there and play the oh, oh, my life sucks. It's not fair, blah blah. It gets better. Because when you accept that you can move different, operate differently and. Once you do that. Your life will be better because then you'll understand that. I can't. I'm not gonna fall in love with a woman because love doesn't exist. The way that I've been told it exists. The contract, the biotic relationship. Well, as long as you're benefiting her, she'll benefit. You states there to enforce that contract and hold you accountable because you're most likely gonna make most. OK. Look, I understand this isn't sound wanted to hear it that probably this is probably a very tough pill to swallow. I understand that. But guess what? This is reality and it's very disappointing as a as Danos said, one of my favorite villains of all time. He said that reality is often disappointing, but now reality could be whatever he wanted because he had the realities. You. Don't have a reality stone. What do you have to do? Gotta do with the fact that life sucks. You're not gonna get what you want, but the normies have told you that you're gonna get. I'm not gonna get. Or even work. Your whole life. To get a fraction of what they've told you. And once you get that, it's not gonna be all that you think it's going to be. There's a quote, I think, by Jim Carrey where he says I wish everybody would get everything they ever wanted just to prove how empty it is. There wasn't with anybody you ever achieved something and then you're like, well, OK, if I go to the next thing I guess. My friends, that's exactly what I'm talking about. I'm talking low because I don't want to yell. I yell. It's. Gonna gonna. I don't wanna yell right now. Because I feel like it's gonna derail the whole conversation. Once you embrace the fact that you're alone in this life, yeah, you might have some close friends, and that's fantastic. But once you stop playing the game with them, once you stop playing poker with them, once you stop hanging out at their house, once you stop. Being a good luck charm. Good time, Charlie. Those times are going to start to decline before you know it, you're going. To be alone. Before. And if you don't master this before, you're on your own completely. Whether you're in high school, you're just out of high school, you're in college, you're you're getting out of college. I'm here to tell you. Everybody out here will almost without exceptions, trying to get you. And once you accept that, you can move forward, you can adapt. You can move differently, operate differently. That's why I don't advocate for marriage. Because especially in Western countries. The whole thing is set up against you. And it's not going to help you. And once you accept that you can boof differently. And coach Greg Adams words you can go to. The junior college. You can have transactional relationships as long as you're not breaking the law. You can have girlfriends but not have long term ones have multiple. I don't care what you do. You do whatever you want. That's the beauty of it. But understand that. Love. The the desire to have everything for nothing or to do as little as possible and get the most money. Life doesn't work that way. And it never will. And the more you try to force life to look like that, the more insane you're gonna feel, the more you're gonna drive yourself crazy. Except the fact that you're going to work super hard. You're probably going to have to depend on yourself more than anybody else by a long shot. You might as well get to know yourself and care about yourself a little bit. Invest in yourself. And. You're not gonna have a loved child unless you want to risk child support alimony, you name it, or abuse claims or anything else. And that's just the unfortunate realities that we're living in. And I hate to be the bearer of bad news when you are living through this right now and you told me as much. My friends, the one thing I've learned in this life. Is you have to be on your own team. You have to make sure that you are advocating for yourself because there's an old saying that I really like. I think it was Confucius who said it. I could be wrong. But he said. If I'm not for myself, who will be? But if I'm only for myself, and who am I? Powerful words, isn't it? My friends, if you don't accept that you are alone and that life sucks, and that reality is very disappointing. And you're gonna be so unfortunately disappointed. And lifes gonna suck even more for you than if you embrace the fact and you expect it. Because maybe you might be surprised it might not be that bad. But you have to accept this reality. You're going to have to work really hard for things. You get no one's going to hand you something. Nothing is free. Anytime you ever hear that something is free, you know they're conning you or they're stupid. Or both. My friends, I encourage you to work really hard. I encourage you to embrace the fact that life sucks, and maybe it doesn't suck for you, you know, maybe you're a lucky. You're the exception. You're not the norm, so I'm encouraging you today. We would probably the darkest means possible to focus on the things you can control. Focus on the areas of your life that you want to improve on, and do those things. Focus on the things you can control and things you can't control. Either fix it or get over it. Stop worrying about things you can't do anything about that's only going to drive you crazy. My friends, I know I said. It's the beginning of the show. I really I felt in my soul that somebody needed to hear this today, or maybe it was me. Maybe I needed to say this today. Because let me tell you something. If you ever show your belly to somebody, most likely they're gonna shove a knife then. They're going to shaft you. They're gonna pull Brutus on. You. Just be aware of that. My friends, I'm not saying this so that you can be bitter in her or call me bitter in her or anything else. I'm saying this because as men we have to stop being vulnerable. We need to be resilient, strong men who tell other men this truth. That nobody is on your team as a man and everybody is competing with you and everybody's out to get you and you get nothing for free. And I really hope that this encourages you this, like dark humor, people find funny. I hope that this dark truth helps encourage you. To control the things you can control, focus on the things that are in. Your. Direct area of influence and then those things are what matter in your life, your family, your close friends, the things you've built, that's what matters. Not the stuff you can't control women, politics, though. You can't control those things. Hand control is you your reaction and the people you surround yourself with. My friends, I think I'll leave it there. I I think I'm getting repetitive at this particular point, but the only thing you want to share you want to chime in, you want to add anything in the conversation. I'd love for you to do that. Let me know if there are any topics that any of you are really affected by. I know that this is an election year cycle that's coming up a lot of propaganda is being put out there about Ukraine, Israel, the. George Floyd stuff all this is very interesting and a lot of it's very controversial. So there's anything, whether it's that whether it's women, whether it's whatever you want more of this. I'm happy to do it. My friends, please let me know what you think. What matters to you and what you want to hear more of? Because I have stuff in the pipeline, but I'm always interested to hear what matters. To. You, my loyal audience and people who are part of this community, my friends who take care of yourselves, hope this encouraged you and didn't depress you too much. It wasn't my intention, but you take care of yourselves. I'm out of here.
