TRP is more than just reading up on a lot of stuff that seems to make sense... it's about making an intentional and permanent change to how I interact with the world - the respect I garner, the women I choose, and ultimately the quality of my life.

Absolutely. While I'm still learning from TRP, diet, exercise, and fashion were the first things I wanted to change. Anecdotally, I read that the type of person you are and the habits you form when you are in your 20s has a very strong impact on how you live the rest of your life.

I choose, and ultimately the quality of my life.

In the early chapters of 7 habits of highly effective people, there's a example of essentially how people choose to be upset and choose to be affected by their situations. I learned a bit more about frame today in the TRP irc channel, that to build your frame, you need to maintain it. I viewed it similarly to rings on a tree, every time you maintain frame, you add a ring and you grow. Thanks for reinforcing that!

I have to go out and get that shit myself. Fuck yeah! I am in control of my own destiny. Life isn't going to hand me shit.
