Strategic Selfishness: Stop People Pleasing & Start Living For Yourself


Listen Later

Do you feel like you are living your life on an apology tour? Are you exhausted from curating a "perfect" reputation for a crowd that doesn't actually care about you? It’s time to stop being the nice guy in everyone else’s story and start being the ruler of your own.

In this episode, we are dusting off the controversial wisdom of Niccolò Machiavelli—not to teach you how to be a villain, but to teach you how to be free. We explore the radical concept of Strategic Selfishness and why prioritizing your own identity over social validation isn't evil; it’s necessary for survival.

We dismantle the invisible prison of people pleasing and examine why seeking constant approval is a one-way ticket to a life of regret. By applying Machiavelli’s philosophy of power to your personal life, we reveal how to reclaim your autonomy, embrace the risk of being misunderstood, and build a life defined by your values, not society's templates.

Forget the "hustle" to be liked. We are talking about the courage to be disliked, the power of living authentically, and why you need to stop justifying your choices to the world.

If you are ready to trade your reputation for reality and escape the trap of social expectation, this is your manifesto.
