  • Embrace Lethality
    This episode is based on my opinion on what he means to embrace lethality and understand that violence is a part of the human condition. Man must be capable of committing violence not just for the sake of it, but rather to be able to defend his family, blood, and territory.

  • The Consequence of Cowardice
    Cowardice is a choice. Our ancient ancestors knew this. That is why such harsh punishments were conducted if one displayed cowardice. To be a coward in the modern world is must less obvious. Cowardice has now been excused, poeticized, and even admired among the men and women of today. 
    Life is too short to be a coward.

    Honor is essential for the masculine psyche. Honor is the mechanism that allows a man to access his virtues and navigate through the world.

  • Beauty and Rebellion

    Why does the modern world hate beauty so much? Don't believe me? What impressed you more? Any common sky scraper, or the sistine chapel? What strikes you as more beautiful? How ironic is it that the sky scraper, in it's towering height, seems to be so far away from godly beauty. Yet a building like the sistine chapel, only 70 meters high, is closer to god than any of building in New York. Have you not listened to modern music? Does it not sound all the same? Lazy, repetitive, insulting? What about our modern art? When did we begin to mistake a trash can for a piece of art in your average art museum? And lastly, the human body. Obesity is now glorified and promoted among our youth. Those who train their bodies and reach peak performed and deemed only as egotistical or narcissistic. Striving for beauty, no matter its form seems to be an act of rebellion in the modern world. Let us rebel. Let us seek beauty once again.

  • Reputation

    Reputation is important. Reputation follows you wherever you go whether you like it or not. So it would be wise of you to treat it like gold and care for it like nothing else. People who don't care about their reputation are playing a bad power game and they will pay a price for it eventually. Individuals who understand the importance of reputation will find themselves climbing to the top of nearly any adventure, job, task, or arena they find themselves in. Play the game. Care about your reputation. Your life may depend on it.
