In Napoleon Hill's best book Think And Grow Rich, he mentions transmutation of sexual energy as the vital ingredient in achieving big success.
So many have read the book but do not understand what transmutation of sexual energy is and they don't understand how to do it.
Transmutation of sexual energy = using your sexual energy as fuel to create great work or do great business.
In this article I will show you what transmutation of sexual energy is, but more importantly I will show you how to cultivate sexual energy in the first place.
If you do not have a big sexual energy, how could you ever harness your sexual energy to create great work? That's a great question and here's the answer: you couldn't.
More important than transmuting sexual energy, is cultivating the sexual energy that you will use as fuel for your great work.
Many times a person's sexual energy is abused and wasted by having too much sex, or it is discarded by not having any sex and becoming domesticated.
Great work is not created by killing your sexual desire and great work is not created by constantly exercising your sexual desire.
Great work is created by cultivating a high sexual desire and letting this desire energize you.
To use intense sexual desire as the fuel for your great work, a balance has to be created.
So let's create that balance and teach you how to transmute your sexual energy.
Sexual energy is made up of one ingredient…
DANGEROUS PASSION
Every great business genius says the exact same thing about building their business.
They say building their business requires what?
They always say passion is the key ingredient in success.
But how do they define passion? They always give you a watered down, clean, suburban definition of passion that takes all of the danger away.
Their definitions of passion are always fake, meek, and weak.
For passion to manifest, an element of danger has to be included. To take the danger out of passion is to take the meaning out of passion.
No danger = no passion = no great work
Here is the definition of passion. Pay close attention to the words…

Without passion you are without fire, you are without fervor, you are without lust, you are without obsession, you are without a temper, you are without intense desire.
With passion you are strong and barely controllable.
Another word for passion is lust, and you will see, you will see, you will see that lust is the key…
LUST
Lust is a very important trait to cultivate.
Business gurus always talk about desire don't they? You should take them literally and cultivate intense desire in the form of lust.
Without lust and desire, you are nothing but grey.
Did you ever have a colorful friend who was once full of fire and life energy? Maybe you didn't see him for a while and when you did, his life energy was seemingly gone?
In the time you didn't see him, maybe he got married, had a child or two, and when you saw him again he seemed to have shrunk in both size and in spirit.
He went from being tall and strong and bursting with light to being short, hunched over, and grey in spirit.
So many once vital men get married, have kids, become domesticated, and they seem to shrink in height and in demeanor.
The color drains from their souls. Their once bright personalities turn grey.
Why does this seem to happen to men over and over again?
This is what happens: lustful men become domesticated and their sex drive disappears. With their sex drive goes their vitality.
Vitality is a key ingredient in big success.
What is vitality? Vitality is high sexual energy.
Vitality: the state of being strong and active; energy.
When a man gets what he was after, in this case a wife and family, what does he have drive for? In many cases, nothing.
Without an object of your lust, your sexual energy will be gone.
This is why domesticated family men do not create great work. They do not have the energy, or vitality, to create the great work.
To a married family man, chasing skirts becomes changing diapers and ideas of creating great work turn to ideas of taking a nap.
When the man was chasing his wife, his vitality was through the roof and he was bursting with vital energy.
But when he got her, and she domesticated him, his fire burned out and left him without vital energy.
There is a simple reason for that…
Getting married and having kids calms you.
But…
Calm is the opposite of passion.
Being calm doesn't help you create your great work, it only helps you to tolerate domestic life, which helps to kill your vital energy.
Marriage/family life is not the problem, domestication is the problem. (The married man who maintains his vitality is the man who still lusts after his wife.)
Married life robs your vitality if you allow yourself to become domesticated. A domesticated dog is a broken dog. That is all domesticated means … BROKEN!
How can create you great work if you are broken?
You cannot create great work if you are broken like a dog.
How to transmute your sexual energy?
To transmute your sexual energy you must have a lot of sexual energy in the first place!
Before you can use sexual energy as fuel, you have to have a lot of sexual energy to use.
If you're a broken dog, you must fix yourself and return to a healthy level of sexual desire.
To create the great work you must be brimming with vitality and sex drive.
Without a high sex drive you will never have the energy to create great work. This is where all great work comes from.
Sex drive is the energy that drives, the fire that burns, the light that shines. Cultivate it, embrace it, accept it, love it.
Great work comes with an element of danger.
What is dangerous? A high amount of sexual energy is dangerous.
You must be a little (or a lot) dangerous with your sex energy.
Remember all of those bad words in the definition of passion? Words like lust, obsession, fanaticism, infatuation, craze, mania.
These are the REAL WORDS of success, forget any weak and meek definitions of passion. Only those big, bad words are real.
All of those big, bad words like lust and infatuation will be aimed at one person…
YOUR MUSE
Your muse is the object of your fire and deepest darkest desire.
The muse is the actual true way you transmute your sexual energy into great work.
Muse = a person or personified force who is the source of inspiration for a creative artist.
You use the fire you have for your muse and you let it drive you to do your great work. The muse is the key to everything.
No muse = No great work
You always do better work when you work for something more than yourself.
Some work for their kids, some work for their God, some work for their wife, but all the best have a muse they work for.
You do not have to be sexual with your muse, but the energy is always sexual.
Pent up sexual energy is the best because you can release that energy into the work.
Rather than releasing the energy into the object of your desires and getting nothing but short term thrills, you can let your desire build to a crescendo and you can release that energy in a volcano of great work.
The muse can be anyone. It can be a long lost love that you will never see again or a new lover you cannot wait to see again.
It doesn't matter who the muse is.
The object of your desire does not matter. Their reality does not matter.
Your muse is the object of YOUR desire.
You use your muse as fuel to get what you desire.
Can women transmute their sexual energy?
Yes.
Sex is the source of all creation on earth. Sex is the genesis of all creativity. It matters not if you are male or female.
True living creation comes from sexual union. Babies are the literal form of creation. If you can create one thing (a baby) you can use this energy to create another thing.
You can use the same sexual energy to create your great work.
High sex energy does not mean always having sex!
Having a high vitality or sexual energy does not mean being a sex freak obsessed with sex.
Transmuting sexual energy and cultivating sexual desire is not the same thing as being a sex addict.
Not even close.
Your sexual energy has to build up and it cannot build up if you constantly use it.
If you have too frequent sex it will dissipate your energy. After many years your body will be so sick, tired, weak, and you will be mentally ill as well.
You cannot be focused on sex all the time, you have to focus your desire.
Sex energy is fuel, sex is not the end goal, creation is the end goal.
The goal of sex is not to have sex, it is to create a baby. The goal of transmuting your sex energy is not to have sex, it is to create your great work.
Build your sex drive, cultivate a a high sexual energy, be obsessed with your muse, and use your sexual energy as fuel for creation.
There is no right or wrong way to use your sexual energy. You do not have to live like a monk and you do not have to live like a sex freak.
What you have to do is build a fire and then maintain it.
After you have built a raging fire, does it require constant supervision? Not really. Just stoke it every now and again.
Passion is the path to creation.
What is passion? Passion is a crazy high sexual energy.
To succeed big you must cultivate a high sexual passion and use that energy as fuel.
It is as simple as this: have sexual drive, use it as fuel to drive you to greater and greater heights.
Have a big libido. Be dangerous. Embrace both your inner scumbag and your inner monk.
Remember, you do not need to ACT on your desire but you do need to have desire.
When you do have a big desire, you will find that the world is more than willing to get on it's knees to please you.
Until next time.
Your man,
-Victor Pride

Good stuff, Victor! We need more of these ideas floating around.
Interesting that you don’t answer the question how to transmute this energy. All you say is; have enough sexual energy and don’t cum too often. You’re barely scratching the surface there Victor. You need to learn how to actually transmute this wonderful energy, it’s quite an intense and powerful process. Read some Mantak Chia for instance, it will also super power your sexual relations!
Cheerio
If you just abstain from cumming you will have more energy. Whether that’s abstaining from sex or just masturbation. Sex is better than masturbation but abstaining at all from cumming for a period of time is good for you.
@jake the snake
Celibacy and transmuting the energy are too different things. Abstain and you will end up being horny all the time. What now? I don’t think it is energy transmutation.
I really like the idea of balance that persists throughout this article. So many creators out there tout the idea of never expressing sexual energy and that is wrong.
You need both the expression and the accumulation of sexual energy in the same way you need to consume food and shit it out.
You can’t do just one or the other and expect that to be a healthy energy flow.
Thats the problem I had. I stored for a damn while and quality of life went way down. You gotta eat and shit, my gut was just full. (flatline my ass)
Masturbation is great but it robs men of their energy.
Kids lower a man’s testosterone because having kids and looking after them, paying for them, etc., is costly, so it’s biological within a man that when he has one kid, his T levels might go up, but more than one, it’s down, and down again to stop him from having more kids. Having lots of kids is a problem for men, but only if they have to look after them.
reading this after i jerked myself to death
Yeah!!!
That makes sense!!!
I had been wondering why I can’t be calm when something already drives me to the edges of inside my controversial mind. Always told people 2 things about…
“I’m a passionate kid, and the 3C’s (cool, calm, and collected) aren’t giving me enough drive to be able to love my work.
“Reason? Well, I never remember Victor Pride being a calm wolf, as that should just mean that you’re telling me an oxymoron.
“And why I say that? Well, his artistry is respectable, along with the work that he delivers after making continuous improvements into revealing his gospel, through written articles, vlog, and podcast.
“Whenever he puts out his fire, and his sensitivity to cut off bullshit, I find that he often burns holes into so many people’s souls. He’s the kinda guy that makes uncomfortableness be his home.
“So him being my influence, I embrace too much of harms associated into improving myself, knowing the outcome of this heavy patience I experience every single moment, will likely be for something that benefits doing what I am. Otherwise, once a lone wolf, always a lone wolf.
“OOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!”
Digging Vic’s views on marriage a lot in this. Honestly, I went from believing divorce should be illegal to now thinking marriage should be illegal. Seriously, what good has marriage done ANYONE in the 21st century? And what is marriage anyway? A government document that places (false) pressure on both parties involved?
Think of it this way. Back in the day when you got married the chick was the man’s property. Because of this, the chick was robbed of her passion. It showed too. So many depressed and miserable housewives in the 50s. Now when you get married the man becomes the chick’s property.
And now that Gay marriage is legal, when gay people marry, they both become property of the state.
I know exactly one married couple (out of a few dozen) who haven’t been robbed of their energy. They are still just as youthful as they were in their 20s when they got married. This (very) rare exception has become a selling point for marriage to everyone it seems.
Join the 21st century and ban marriage. Ban monogamy while you’re at it. If society wants to tag me a lone wolf fuckboy for this, then I have only one word in response:
AWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Excuse me sir didnt you mention that in a same article back in 2011
https://boldanddeterminedarchive.com/how-to-harness-your-sexual-energy/
One of your best posts bar none.
You’re a deep and insightful guy Vic, just doesn’t always show lol
Keep it up.
Learn the cosmic orbit exercise to draw sexual energy out of your testes and into your higher energy centers.
The reason most people cannot cultivate their sexual energy beyond a few weeks (no fap) is that energetic pressure builds up and needs a release.
Either learn how to orgasim w/o spilling your seed or transfer that energy by pulling it up your spine. At the same time massage and pull your balls/dick with your thumb/index finger away from your main scrotum area.
This will help “cool” your groin and allow some of that pressure to dissipate.
Thank you this is just what I needed.
Today is the 105 day I have not let out the energy.
For the first time in my life and it is hard but Its given me an intense amount of energy to work.
I already have a muse which is great too and have noticed the signaficant difference between just doing something and doing something BECAUSE OF SOMEONE.
Not FOR someone but because of someone.
That someone or something being the muse.
When you do it because of someone it’s another way of saying purpose and inspiration combined.
That’s what I learned. Still learning as I go. This helped.
To victor pride,
Anothwr great article in the books, literally and figuratively. If i can frank or maybe ill just be tim i have a serious problem with my “sexual energy”. Actually its out of control. I have the sexual energy of 10 men. It has gotten really out of hand or in hand i should say and sucks up all of my free time. I work, sleep and self pleasure. Ive considered getting therapy. Im like 16 year old kid who just discovered himself. Well now that ive grossed out everyone out and outed myself as a total loser, what is your advice? Rock on bro.
Fucking awesome man! I finally got a clear idea of how to turn my sexual energy in to great work. And for anyone else reading this, I would highly recommend Red PCT to increase your libido and sex drive and direct in whatever direction you want. In fact I personally use the damn thing so much, I often double up and purchase at the rate in which you would think I had a subscription for it. So yes, it fucking works. By the way, thanks for another powerful article Victor.
During my relationship with my girlfriend I lost my passion for my business, wasn´t lifting regularly, bodyfat raised and I even lost my sexual drive. For the first time in my life I lost myself.
After we broke up, I am resurrected from the dead.
Now, I have found myself again.
Business is running better than ever, my bodyfat shrunk and I am horny like in puberty stage, although I am reaching my 30s.
Sometimes, I hate myself for letting this happen to me.
However it wasn´t her fault.
My sexual energy is fueled again and I am not losing it anymore!
Thanks for your honest words, Vic!
If you look at differences between many civilizations and why other civilization thrived while others did not, most of them had to do with misuse of sexual transmutation.
When I was living in the hood I would hear extremely aggressive black men and women yelling and shouting at each other. It was different than when whites, asians, or latin people yell. Their vocals would be deep and coarse, like a lion roaring in the sahara.
That kind of aggression only comes from high testosterone and sex. Shame they never seemed to be able to harness their sexual energy for good. Instead of getting passionate about whatever bullshit they were arguing they could have started a business or something.
Brilliant post, Vic, glad to see you’re posting more regularly.
I did it some time ago. I feel great.
Only sperm create a child, female orgasm didn’t do it. If you think of best art are there some made by woman? It’s more like they are good at destroying.
Today women are spoiled by tons of horny men and matriarchy (allowing them to do anything). They behave horrible and sometimes even they look bad (tatoos, manly hair and clothes etc.). It’s hard to find muse. Even then it’s better to not know what she’s capable of (in Internet era we already find out that every woman behave the same).
“There is no right or wrong way to use your sexual energy.”
YES THERE IS according to GOD.
“What is passion? Passion is a crazy high sexual energy.
To succeed big you must cultivate a high sexual passion and use that energy as fuel.
It is as simple as this: have sexual drive, use it as fuel to drive you to greater and greater heights.”
So I guess the great celebate and “virgin” Christian leaders of Old were onto something for “abstaining from sexual intercourse” in obedience to the Word of God?
The apostle Paul come to mind?
Lord Jesus Christ?
Amen…
~ Bro. Jed
Try going without orgasm a couple weeks before a martial arts event and you’ll feel like you’re ready to rip someone’s head off.
That is so true. I went like three days without jerking it or sex before a bowling tournament and I felt like I grew an inch lol.
Great article!
Yes, all great successes in life have a passionate obsession with what they succeed at.
“Passionate” and “obsession” are very sexual words as you mention.
Cheers!
D
I don’t have sex. I just Just stoke it every now and again.
really love napoleon hill but havent read that one yet, will have to check it out soon
I love this article. I enjoyed it so much. Its so funny and a true revelation. It helped me a lot. It answers my questions. Thank you so very big.
So i should be feeling horny/passionate while creating something for example music. . to create something amazing?
You dont state how to transmute it, you say you have to have it, you have to build it up but how do you use it instead of fucking every girl you see..
Excellent advice. I’m just now discovering this blog because I’d Googled “transmutation of sexual energy” as research for a new company I’m launching. Although I felt I understood the concept in the abstract, I was seeking a more articulate interpretation of it, and Victor really nailed it. My problem isn’t that I lack sexual energy, it’s that I have indulgent and hedonistic tendencies that tend to dilute my sexual energy. This post was a good wake up call. I’m gonna go crush it with this new company now.
Thanks for sharing. It was good readiy.
Great article. More people need to understand what makes them work. Thanks Victor.
Absolutely works. When I was much younger I used these techniques along with extremely vivid visualization I always achieved my goals and became a very creative person. Trouble was, once I realized I could achieve what I desired, AT WILL, Trouble was, when I realized I had this ability, I told myself that I could always achieve the desired results “later”.
Now, with wisdom and self actualization, I am in the process of using the above methods to be all that I can be and achieve all that I desire.
This is beautiful and highly instructional.
Amazing Article! exactly what I needed to hear.
Understood it better after reading this article.
Thanks.
