Well holy moly. Here we are already in a new year.
I do hope you are having a great new year so far, I know I am.
Speaking of the new year, I get so many questions for the Bold and Determined Podcast that I cannot answer them all during the show.
What do you say I answer some of them for you right now?
I agree that American culture is destroying the femininity of the American woman and turning her into a masculine beast of degeneracy and entitlement. In addition to the social changes, how much do you think the hidden hormones/chemicals in our food, water, and prescription drug supply contributes to this change on a chemical level?”
Lovely ladies of the modern era are dealing with attacks on multiple fronts. The water is poison, the food is poison, her hygiene products are poison, her birth control is poison, her media is poison, the culture and her heroes are poisonous. She is being damaged on a molecular level, a psychological level, and a spiritual level. The result? She reacts to the poisoning the same way anyone reacts to being poisoned. And it's not a pretty picture. Modern males face the same poisons, but the poisons can be killed if you follow the rules laid out by B&D.;
Victor, do you believe women’s birth control pills are another reason for modern females mental problems today?”
The birth control pill is a sex steroid. What does that mean? Females on the pill are on steroids. Ever wonder why they rage so much? Roid rage. Remember how everybody says testosterone is bad and will make you angry and crazy? All of our women are on the female version of this steroid, they call it the birth control pill.
Hello vic, I started listening to your podcasts and I’m more motivated than ever to change my life for the better but I do not know where to start. I know inside me that I’m not the one I want to be and it makes me depressed every day. I’m dead inside I’m not confident I’m lazy and I have no energy. I want 2019 to be the best year of my life and to feel like a real winner every day. I’m 27 years old the time passed and i do not want to feel like a loser in my life anymore. Vic I badly need your advice to feel alive again and be an inspiration. Where should I start?”
Start at the start. Go into Monk Mode, shed all the bad habits, and emerge as a different man. Monk Mode is a lot like going into war. You're going into war with your own self and your own bad habits. You will shed blood and annihilate your bad habits and emerge as the victor. It ain't easy, and that's why most people are losers instead of winners. If it were easy, every Jerkoff Joe would have complete self-mastery.
Hello Vic. While reading about the self immolation of this Buddhist monk in Vietnam, I was awestruck by the description of his superhuman composure and discipline during his final moments, where he didn’t even flinch or make a sound as the flames consumed his flesh. Even for a such a monk who has practiced a spiritual discipline for so many years, to reach this level of mastership over one’s senses is extraordinary. Are you aware of any methods by which such an overcoming of senses such as pain and such a level of discipline could be attained?”
Here's a quote about the burning Vietnamese monk…
I was to see that sight again, but once was enough. Flames were coming from a human being; his body was slowly withering and shriveling up, his head blackening and charring. In the air was the smell of burning human flesh; human beings burn surprisingly quickly. Behind me I could hear the sobbing of the Vietnamese who were now gathering. I was too shocked to cry, too confused to take notes or ask questions, too bewildered to even think … As he burned he never moved a muscle, never uttered a sound, his outward composure in sharp contrast to the wailing people around him.”
This monk has achieved total self-mastery through intense meditation. “But Victor, you said meditation doesn't work?!” Good point. The kind of meditation they teach you in yoga class at LA Fitness is different than the real meditation that allows you to burn yourself alive and not even flinch. There IS a real meditation and it does work. See the photo above for proof. Check out Monk Mode to begin the practice.
By the way, the Asian monks today are all on smartphones dealing drugs and procuring orgies with loose women. Mr. Monk may have burned himself alive for no reason. I wonder if he is a ghost in the afterlife, stuck between this world and the next, thinking to himself, “Hmmm. Maybe I shouldn't have lit myself on fire over something I had no control over. What the devil was I thinking?!” Monk Mode can teach you meditation and self-mastery but I highly advice you do not set yourself on fire.
Hey Vic, It’s been 7 days for me since I started NoFap, a better diet, a lot more workout and I have a lot more energy in general. But I have a terrible problem with sleeping, I can’t sleep at night at all, I feel like my mind starts talking about everything and can’t shut up and let me sleep. Because of that I can’t sleep properly therefore I can’t commit fully to 30 Days of Discipline. Even when I stay all night and wait to get tired when the sun is high, I still have troubles with falling asleep. I don’t want to use any drugs. While I see great benefits from following your routine, I can’t rest properly at all and I am slowly becoming insane from it. Please help me, Merry Christmas.”
Give it time. You are going through withdrawal and the body is adjusting.
If you're a beginner, Body of a Spartan. If you aren't a beginner, Shredded Ops. Shredded Ops requires you already have some muscle and experience. Shredded Ops will reveal that muscle, like a sculpture. Body of a Spartan will build the muscle in the first place.
I am starting a new brick and mortar business that will require a lot of face to face sales. How can I go through this with no fear?”
Stop being a pussy. Also, let the fear fuel you. Anything that is worth doing will cause fear. This is how you know you are on the right path. Those butterflies in the tummy are saying to you… KEEP GOING.
Before writing a blog post, do you have an outline or what is it that you do to create great content?”
Outlines are for people who have nothing to say. I follow the Nikola Tesla method and I first create the work in my mind.
My method is different. I do not rush into actual work. When I get a new idea I start at once building it up in my imagination and make improvements and operate the device in my mind. When I have gone so far as to embody everything in my invention, every possible improvement I can think of, and when I see no fault anywhere, I put into concrete form the final product of my brain.” -Nikola Tesla
The best blog articles are written in the mind before they are ever put on paper. An outline is dry and lifeless. The article must come to life in the mind. You go through the entire article in your head before you ever sit down to write words. This is the only real way you ever prepare extraordinary work. If you want your audience to fall asleep to you work, prepare it with an outline. If you want the words to come alive in the mind of the reader, first make it come alive in your own mind.
I wrote the best blog article of 2018, How to Be the Light, completely in my imagination before I ever wrote down a word. I stayed up nights thinking through the article over and over. When every word had been prepared in my mind, I went to Starbucks in Ho Chi Minh City, ordered a tea which I did not drink, and wrote the article in one sitting (I also edited the article one day later to make it perfect).
Do you take any notes while reading books?”
I take notes all the time. I believe it is a terrible habit that must be killed. Nothing good has ever come from me taking notes. All great work I have ever done was done without notes of any kind. The work has to be REMEMBERED to be significant. The work has to be synthesized in the mind. When you write it down you have permission to forget it. I plan to take no notes in 2019. Everything will be remembered the old-fashioned way - with mental power and utmost clarity.
I’ve been on the CARNIVORE DIET for almost a month and been feeling physically and mentally better than I’ve ever felt in my entire life.
During the holidays I cheated and consumed bread, cookies, vegetables and alcohol. Man oh man, I was a wreck for the next two days. Crippling brain fog, bloating, abdominal pain, farting, and fatigue. I literally had to lie down the second day because I felt so sick.
After this episode I truly understood how UNNATURAL these foods are for us, and how most people just adapt to being sick all the time. Thanks Vic for opening my eyes to the truth about the Carnivore diet, I’d still be eating peasant food it wasn’t for you.”
Many people still believe in the power of peasant food (vegetables, fruits and grains), even with the illumination I have given them. I now understand why so many conmen preach the vegan/vegetarian diet: The gullible idiots WANT IT to be true and are willing to sacrifice their health and their bank accounts for it. Modern man is so divorced from reality he has no idea what food is. A gullible man will soon be parted with his money and his health. Haha. It's a fun time to be alive.
Hey Uncle Vic, Is it weird to be constantly re-reading/ re-listening to one particular book? For example, I have been studying think and grow rich for over a year straight. Every time I look at the book I learn something new. I feel like I’m closed minded to other books and ideas… is this good or bad?”
This is one of my success secrets (that I have forgotten). The more books you read, the less creative you become and the less focus you have. In the past I watched the same movies over and over and they always get better with time. The madman Louie Simmons watches Shogun Assassin over and over. When I watch multiple movies or read multiple books, my attention goes here and there. When I watch one over and over again my concentration and my attention grows like a wildfire. When my interests spread out and I consume multiple media sources, my concentration and creativity atrophy. The smartphone is the worst tool in the world for creativity and focus (because it scatters your focus).
Personally, I could live with 5 movies, 5 books, and 5 albums for the rest of my life. In fact, if I did that I would be even better than I am right now because right now I read too much. When I started B&D; I was reading the same books, listening to the same music, and watching the same 3 movies: First Blood, Babylon AD, and No Country For Old Men. I basically only watched these movies for an entire year (this was at a time when I still watched movies). Now that I think about it, I should get back into watching the same movies over and over because they played an integral role in the creation of B&D.;
Here's the beginning of Babylon A.D. Even nearly 10 years later I'm still fired up watching it. I used to walk around in China listening to this song on my cheap MP3 player, feelin' like a total badass.
Why do a small number of people believe they can achieve greatness while the majority of the population does not think this way… Are we born we ultimate faith in ourselves? Or is this something that is acquired through habit.”
Anyone can achieve greatness but only a few ever will. Each of us has the seed of greatness sewn in us. All people have been told since birth that they cannot achieve anything great. But! Because they have been taught these lies by authority figures they believe these lies. Belief comes trues and what once were lies become the everyday truth. I am very lucky because I never paid attention in school and was not indoctrinated into the cult of mediocrity. I am a superior man and I make no apologies for it.
I am 25, I have never had any girls or anything really. I am weak and stupid (my parents weren’t the best) but I want to change my reality. I want to be strong, attractive, successful and wise. My question is: in what order should I pursue things so I can get what I want? I aim very high and I believe it but I need some sort of a plan. Should I build a business practice, then get fit and attractive, and then spend time on reading? What do I have to focus on so I can become a real man?”
Start from the start. Everything starts from the same spot - the desire to be better. When the burning desire consumes you like a fat girl consumes cake, you will do all things to make yourself better. There is no separation whatsoever. All paths lead to the same destination. Reality can easily be changed, if you desire to change. The best thing to do is go into Monk Mode and learn to focus and harness that desire to achieve real results.
Vic, bearing in mind your thoughts on the loss of communities in the modern world, does it not make some sort of sense as to why people would want to work in an office environment in the standard 9-5 jive? After all, offices give people the chance to participate in a community and work towards a shared goal.
I’m 28 and I worked in an office for 12 months back in 2014. Since then, I’ve worked freelance online. Working online is much more liberating, and I’ve had the chance to travel a lot, read a ridiculous amount of books, cook for my parents every day and go for breakfast with them when I feel like it.
However, I still remain unhappy and lonely. I look on with envy at office workers because they are part of a community. They laugh and joke around the coffee machine, go to lunch together, and build camaraderie during after work drinks. Perhaps office work is the way to go if I need a community?”
“The price of being a sheep is boredom. The price of being a wolf is loneliness. Choose one or the other with great care.” -Hugh Macleod
Some sort of work/community is essential for the well-being of the average human mind. So even though the office is soulless drudgery, at least other people are there with you on your path to nowhere. On the other hand, the path up the mountain is a lonely path and few will reach the top. Ever heard them say it's lonely at the top?
This is called The Way of Working Alone for a reason and loneliness is the price you will pay to reach the peak of the mountain. The master knows he is alone and frets not. There can be only one winner. This is a game of self-mastery, not a game of gossip at the water cooler on Monday morning, talking shit with the rest of the quitters.
You have 2 options in this life:
- Be the winner on top, alone, or
- Be in the pile of bullshitters and quitters at the bottom
To me? That's an easy choice.
Will you make the right choice?
Until next time.
Your man,
-Victor Pride
PS - Monk Mode ebook drops next Monday, January 14.
The cover of Monk Mode looks sick, reminds me of the movie 300. Looking forward to reading it.
I met up with a friend and we were
planning our future success together. He told me the best
info is stored in your mind and the only things notes help you to
achieve is to remember useless info. I rejected this idea initially, even
though I generally trust his judgement.
But then I thought about my journey toward success that started
in 2014. Back then, I read lots of things and took lots of notes.
I felt like I was on the right path, but I still felt lost.
Now that I am on a clearer path, I have
been reading and listening to the same people or books over and over
without realizing it until recently. I don’t have tons of yellow legal
pads scattered around anymore either.
Back in 2014, I would read and listen and read and listen and put a couple things
into action. Now I take a my gut feeling after reading or listening to something
and run with it.
Now that I’ve read this article, it has inspired me to write quotes from my
own mind around my room that will guide me to success. I’ve done this before,
but I was searching out “inspiring quotes” instead of using inspiration from within.
Even if its something I know that comes from someone else, like Victor’s idea
of “wake up and fuck the day,” it is still something that resonated with me enough
that I remembered it.
I am also going to throw out all my old legal pads full of notes. I feel like the physical
clutter of these notes is weighing down my mind, even if they are out of sight.
I hope everyone else is killing it in 2019 (and if not, get the ball rolling now so you can
kill it in 2020, a year that will be special for creating your vision!)
Funny, you mentionned Babylon A.D I read other books by Dantec the writer. His books are sick. Never saw that movie. Maybe I will watch it.
Good shit! Yessss, I’m beyond fired up, I closed out 2018 with a big bang in blogging success and I look forward to 2019 which will entail a nuclear explosion of blogging success! Working your ass off is so much sweeter when you start see the sweat equity you put into blogging, pay off.
Vic,
All the best for 2019. I’m looking forward to Monk Mode.
You said in earlier podcasts that you didn’t like a lot of music, and mostly listen to classical music nowadays. You also emphasised on the importance for the European people to find their roots and connection to nature again, which we lost after the desert religions got forced upon our people. I recently discovered a music project you might find interesting:
Danheim.
Danheim creates Nordic/Viking/Germanic-styled ambient music. It’s strangely hypnotic at times, while other songs get me fired up and help me to focus and motivate myself. And it’s music linked to Northern Europe. Perhaps you’ll like it as well. You can find some of their full albums on their official Youtube page.
Best regards.
Interestingly enough, Vic mentioned Danheim in his last 5 Bullet Friday.
He linked this vid: https://youtu.be/KXhhpxt_OoI
Before that he mentioned Heilung, which I absolutely love now.
Hah, must have missed that one then!
Even better that he already found it. It’s awesome music. Berserkir is a particularly good track.
I like the Q&A articles such as this one. And I love the Monk Mode book cover! Looking forward to getting it. Will it be on paperback too?
I only take notes to summarize a large chapter of what I’ve read. But yes, notes can be limiting. The end goal is always Internalization. Books are goldmines that replenish themselves when you take time away from them, and gain new perspectives. There’s always wisdom to be found, no matter how many times you’ve read them.
2019 is the year of the Conqueror. Let’s take back what’s ours.
-Justin N.
I always struggle when I write articles from an outline.
When I write from the mind the words always flow freely as if they are not even my own words.
Where do you think creativity comes from Vic?
I feel compelled to comment to the questioner who asked “I am weak and stupid (my parents weren’t the best) but I want to change my reality. I want to be strong, attractive, successful and wise. My question is: in what order should I pursue things so I can get what I want?”
Wisdom comes from life experience - you will gain it by living life fully. The other 3, strong, attractive and successful, can all come simultaneously. Weightlifting will make you strong and also help to make you attractive. And it takes less than an hour a day so it is no excuse for not working for success at the same time.
Adding style to the way you dress will also add to attractiveness. Will you go around naked while you build your business? No. So might as well be sharp-dressed while working towards success.
Vic, i recently requested for a somebooks to be added to Audible so i can listen to them while driving..
The titles were:
The Art of the Argument which is now available onsite, The Social Biology of Visual Imagery & Shadow Men.
For Dr Anthony Napoleon’s work the lady gave me this response:
“In regards to Shadow Men and The Social Biology of Imagery – I am sorry to say they’re not available onsite as whoever the publisher sold the rights to has chosen not to produce them into an audiobook. Unfortunately we are unable to access the rights so are unable to produce it ourselves.
Many thanks for taking the time to reach out regarding gaps in our catalogue. Have a lovely day.”
Does this sound right to you? Why would he sell the rights or not allow his own book in Audio format?
ABOUT WRITING EVERYTING DOWN:
The thing about writing everything down is very true. The good thing about having done it for years now is that I can look at my notes from a year back and see my shadow callings clearly and realise that my path is narrowing and is becoming more focused which is good. The bad thing is that my room used to be filled with paper notes and it makes your mind scattered and ultimately, it makes you crazy.
ABOUT ONLY WATCHING A FEW MOVIES:
After having been addicted to YouTube, Spotify, Netflix and Instagram for years I realised I had to cut of my internet (ab)use drastically. I even read the book “Hooked” about the engineering behind all this addiction and it still took time to do something about this addiction. I had to stop zapping, skipping, opening multiple browser tabs and all this bullshit that comes with unlimited access to enternatinment and information.
I HAVE CREATED A OFFLINE LIBRARY FOR MYSELF
This offline library online contains the most essential movies I like watching, the most essential YouTube-videos and the most essential music. NO FILLER. I use Real Player downloader for YouTube-videos.
When I started to become more deliberate with what I consume I realised modern music, even rock and metal is made to stick in your head. This is good when you want to brainwash yourself into work mode and get in the zone but should not be done in the night before bed. Also, tempo has a big effect. Modern music is more dense and chaotic while old music is typically slower, it breathes and is less compressed = better for the mind.
WHAT I HAVE NOTICED WITH MOVIES IS:
They stopped making good movies around 2005 or so. I find myself gravitating towards movies that have somekind of edge. Todays movies have no edge. They don’t pump you up. They leave you feeling meh, dead inside like a zombie.
The type of movies I like:
Point Break (the original)
Fast & Furious (first movie)
Gone In 60 Seconds
Transporter
Tomb Raider (2001)
These movies are cheesy in many ways because they are over the top. But they give you a badass feeling. Todays movies are all in the middle. They have no edge. No badass scenes or badass soundtracks. They are not macho anymore. They have no sexual dynamic between men and women. It’s all like minimalistic design and touch screens; genderless. Nothing stands OUT.
Looking forward to Monk Mode. It has a place reserved in my offline library for sure. Because the offline library is for studying and applying, not consuming. Exciting times ahead!
Also, the best way to stay offline for extended periods of time, for me, is to PHYSICALLY remove your internet connection. Internet browser extensions, apps and other “click solutions” DO NOT WORK for me. I disconnect the wi-fi antenna from my PC workstation. You can’t do that with a laptop though because the receiver is built inside the chassi.
Hi Vic,
Keep rocking the house with your blog.
I’d appreciate it if you tackled my root beliefs on fruit, veg, and sex. It’s a doozy in length, but they’re all connected.
I understand great overall health is closely tied to great virility. If you do great things for your sexual organs - high testosterone, low stress, good circulation - your health, as a whole, skyrockets.
So I read on the most virile man in history Genghis Khan. According to researchers and Khan’s journals, he ate only fish, meat, vegetables, and fruits, eliminating dairy, soy, and grain. However, he also ate large servings of fruits, vegetables, and seafood.
He built an enormous empire, was a great warrior, lived to twice the age of most in his time and bedded many women which resulted in an unreal amount of children. How did he achieve all these feats if fruit and veg aren’t good for us?
Further, Genghis believed sex was an important part in maintaining and building power. This resulted in him siring thousands of children. Apparently, 1 in 200 of men today can trace their ancestry back to him.
I wholly agree nofap is great, but you also say we should retain semen during sex to do great works. How did Genghis maintain such great energy for his huge appetite for sex and war when he fathered so many children?
And finally, I never used to eat vegetables save for a couple that I found tasty like sweetcorn. But I found certain fruit, veg, and other natural foods were all aphrodisiacs. i.e. eggs, oysters, raw honey, cinnamon, avocados, spinach, peaches, watermelon, etc.
So I began including a lot of these natural aphrodisiacs in my diet. I’d drink the fruits in homemade smoothies, and I’d juice raw vegetables like spinach and celery to drink rather than cooking and eating them, since cooking food destroys much of the nutrition and makes it harder to digest and juicing veg eliminates the fibre.
So when I consumed them like this, I had harder, longer lasting erections and massive loads. Girls complimented the taste of my semen. I stopped being a two pump chump. It convinced me I was doing something right. How did these benefits come about if these foods aren’t good for me? And would I lose these benefits if I switch to the carnivore diet?
I don’t eat any fruit/veg that hasn’t been linked to some sort of sexual benefit aside from grapes since they’re delicious.
Farming was not possible in Mongolia and they had a nomadic lifestyle. They ate animals.
Interesting. Thank you, Victor.
OWWWWWW!!
Happy new year Vic!
Starting Red Beast and Red PCT 2.0 today after 8 days of carbs now going full carnivore for 30 days with the help of Red Supplements! 7 days a week in the gym and grass fed lamb and beef for 30 days!
Wes
Victor,
There is another way to look at taking notes. When I look back at old notes I took it gives me a point of reference for my mentality at the time. When I look at old goal lists I wrote down years past it gives me the perspective to see how I’ve evolved over the years. It’s like playing an old tape of yourself as kid.
Vic, thanks for the raw milk suggestion. Found some on realmilk.com and it’s delicious
I know you said not to ask any questions until the next podcast gets released but I wanted to bring something to your attention that has blown my mind lately
The whole concept of ‘space’ and a ‘round earth’ is totally bullshit. These science nerds live in virtual realities. Probably 80% of the world’s population today doesn’t think that we revolve around the sun. This is because they live in the real world. It is just westerners and whites who have been brainwashed to accept all this ‘science’. Sv3rige talks about this too. He says that there are most likely not 7 billion people on earth, and even if there are it doesn’t matter because we really only interact with a few hundred anyways, so it’s totally an illusion. It’s meant to make us think that we are smaller and less significant than we are. Same thing with this whole bullshit concept of ‘space’. There is nothing out there physically. Above us is probably the heavens or some sort of spiritual realm. We did not go to the moon. Anyone who believes that we went to the moon is retarded. These sci fi nerds (again all white westerners) want to live in these virtual realities where we are living on other planets. I have no idea why this is, as the reality is going on here on earth. Other people’s have not been so brainwashed and they believe that the things in space are heavenly beings and the reality is on our earth. Even with flat earth(which I don’t know if it’s true or not), I garauntee you 90% of the worlds population still think that the earth is flat. You go to India or Africa or China they just believe that it’s flat because it is human nature. Again, white westerners live in these virtual realities (science) as opposed to tangible reality that we experience every day. Westerners don’t trust their senses. Even if the earth is round and space is the way they say it is, there’s no point in believing in it because it literally does nothing for us. All it does is make us feel insignificant (when in reality we are all significant, divine beings) Thank you for all you do Vic.

Without hormonal birth control, there would be a lot of men not getting laid until she wants a baby. These men would have to work harder to get laid and work harder to prove he’s not going to be a deadbeat husband and father. Most men these days would be completely shit out of luck, unless they cleaned up their act.
Who gives a shit? Men having to prove that they are competent would actually be better.
Funny your website is a feminist site that is glaringly anti-male and your here on a male directed site now isn’t it? Your agenda is obvious and your poison isn’t needed here little girl. Go preach your doctrine to other man hating females.
Grizzly, what’s funny is that some people find my writing anti-male and some find it anti-woman. Gotta keep the people on their toes. I love it. Thanks for your comment.
In Russia, we believe in a third way:
1) Be the winner on top, alone
2) Be in the pile of bullshitters and quitters at the bottom
3) Be the winner on top, with other comrades
Maybe this is why we tried out COMMUNism (= from “common”).
Comments:
A) Most people won’t get on top, but for those who try, it’s often easier to try TOGETHER
B) Those, who are honest with others (and themselves) and have a common goal (“getting on top”) - we used to call such people “Tovaritch” (or comrade in English) - may reach the Mastery Level and meet other Masters. Such Masters will be subconsciously hated by not-comrades (which is 90-98% of the population), but they may definitely be NOT alone.
When Masters UNITE, people may call them an “Order”, “Priests”\”Brahmans”\”Spiritual Leaders” (the “First Estate”) or call them Warriors, Knights (= the Equus Order in old Rome), Samurais, which are then the “Second Estate” and so on. Of course, with time, such Orders degrade themselves and become full of second and even third-tier elements, but still, Destiny (= Nature, God, Allah, The One, the Cosmos, etc…) is Just and will send you someone (a Teacher, a Brother, much less a Sister, which in most cases will become your wife or allied sub-warrior, bringing, cleaning and preparing your weapons). You will not be alone if you don’t really want it and are honest and just yourself, good, and kind, which of course most people will consider as weakness, but hey… let them be.
Greetings from Russia. We love you blog here.
There is a lot of truth to what you’re saying. However, we don’t want communism. Sorry.
Can’t agree more - reading too much divides your attention. Less is more unless it’s a bore.
Day 6 of the carnivore diet with RED PCT 2.0 and RED BEAST and I was feeling so good I decided to edit and record a short story my brother wrote 10 years ago for my English class. You can check it out at my website. It’s a short story called The Hot Void.
OWWWWWW!!
An amazing alternative to a podcast, this one was.
