Goals are needed. We must know if we have failed or succeeded. To live life just drifting through is to become enveloped with fog. To meet a goal, no matter how small, is a win. Life is full of wins outside how we individually perform, so our personal behavior and efforts need evaluation. A win is a dopamine hit, an adrenaline rush, and a builder of self-esteem. This is not the phony self-esteem of the late-20th-century educational system, but the original idea. Self-esteem is built via the knowledge that achievements have been reached and positive behaviors and traits have been developed.
Do not be an intellectual, but be a man that studies and learns. An intellectual in our era is a man who assumes an identity and pays attention to the proper fashions for that role. The intellectual with horn-rimmed glasses will tell you any fool knows the Earth revolves around the sun but does not know why. That intellectual has spent more time selecting his glasses, his haircut, and maintaining proper orientation to the zeitgeist than he has looking into why the Earth orbits the sun. He does not know. An hour of study could reveal the gravitational tug of war between everything in the solar system that comes to balance at the center of gravity. The horn-rimmed glasses fellow would pick up his phone and locate an article on Wikipedia, but it would fail him. He would need to actually look into this.
The human body is not meant to be overinflated skin filled with fat. Those who encourage this want you sluggish and slow. They want you sick and limping through life.
The self-esteem peddled today is about feeling good regardless of achievements. This is because society does not understand the difference between earning self-respect through one’s actions and earning approval of an outside authority. Self-esteem through accomplishment, even just moving more weight, is a powerful factor in an individual’s mental health.
iron will and iron physique. Like iron, your training is born of study, fire, and hammering. You pound and beat your body to mold it into the proper form to strike at a decadent world.

The teaching materials include “Student Study Guides” written for “Equal Opportunity Advisor Courses,” that are critical of persons who “believe that human similarities are more important than differences;” advise people to acknowledge their privilege when “it is pointed out to them;” claim that heterosexuals have “sexual orientation privilege;” and that “religious privilege” exists.
