    I often hear and read that the goal of life is to be happy. Yet, happiness is a fleeting feeling, and the idea that a car/job/girlfriend/money/etc. can make you fulfilled is not true in my experience.

    So, as I travel the MGTOW path I have discovered a new, better goal of life: to be great at something; anything!
    The world we live in is a world of action, and at it’s core a man is defined not by what he owns or who he knows but by what he can do.

    There is no limit to how great you can get at something. All the other stuff like money and women are a side effect of doing what most people cannot.

    When i started MGTOW I was depressed because I wasn’t “happy” being alone. But now, I realize that I have all this time to “Become great or die trying”. Build the pyramid! Climb the mountain! Work on your goals every day and water them like you would a plant.

    One of my goals is to be a pianist (despite having never taken piano lessons). Here’s a couple examples of my work.

    MGTOW is not a movement, it is a way of life.

    Do something so great, so that your presence is known and your absence is felt. I’m trying to do it right now, it’s a slow process. But the battle is not won by the swift nor the strong, but the one who holds out to the end. Stay the course. Have faith and practice hardwork.

    You’d be surprised how far you can go, and where you can end up.

    The world we live in is a world of action, and at it’s core a man is defined not by what he owns or who he knows but by what he can do.

    Personally, I do not wish to be “defined” by the “world” at large.

    I don’t wish to live a life of attempting to do “something of greatness” to seek validation, approval, or for adulation from the masses.

    There is NO ONE in the Matrix for me to Impress.

    This being said, by ALL MEANS work towards being the BEST PIANO PLAYER THAT YOU CAN BE, but do it COMPLETELY for Yourself. ENJOY YOUR WORK, and make it YOUR OWN !!

    The Hell if others Love It, Hate It, Consider it Amateurish or GREAT.

    All that matters is that it is that it is what YOU WANT TO DO !!!

    That’s nothing, I mastered that at two weeks old with milk.

    I can turn a few hours of driving into pee.

    Women are better at multitasking? Fucking up several things at once is not multitasking.

    I’m great at being contented. Being the best you that you can be always reflects outwards. If you do what you like to do in a relaxed, unhurried way it’s like adding a final polish what you already are.

    If you rescue a damsel in distress, all you will get is a distressed damsel.

    As a man I feel an obligation to further the cause of evolution.

    Obviously I do not mean to do this by simply breeding like another stupid animal.
