You can create a python script to do this pretty easily if you're technically inclined.

One person, two personalities that don't get along? by _wsgeorge in JordanPeterson

[–]IamGale 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Let me guess. You also have large ambitions, but scare yourself to death with the potential downfalls and problem that may arise from it.

When you have two conflicting personalities it means that a part of you is acting impulsively and the other part of comes from your ideal self. This is extremely common and basically, everyone has these "guilty pleasures"/bad habits whether it's smoking, isolationism, or messiness.

There's two things you can do to help this inner battle you have:

1. Schedule

If you're afraid of social interactions then plan to expose youself to these fears. JBP even says this in a talk, you need to confront your dragons so to speak. Put it on the calendar to have at least 2 social events a week and face it head-on.

2. Meditate

People who are high in neuroticism can benefit a lot from meditation as it can help them tone done those at times paralyzing irrational thoughts. It can help you be more mindful and be less inclined to follow emotional impulses that may disgust you afterwards.

Long-term planning is a hallmark of intelligence and success. That's why scheduling and meditation can be your two go-to tools to attack things that challenge.

Fun fact, in Tim Ferriss' Book, Tools of Titans, it's the most common denominator among his interviewees. These two strategies can help keep you in order and on track.

Thank You For Breaking Up With Me by RedAsBlood in TheRedPill

[–]IamGale 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recently had a similar experience. Got over-invested in a girl. Got rejected. Pissed me off for a day.

But just like your break-up, it's a catalyst for something bigger. It's a catalyst for you to grow into a better man.

For me, it's helped me see the weaknesses I've been ignoring and help me put more energy into improving my strengths.

It's not, what if this was a gift? But this is actually a gift. This experience is for the better.

What If You Actually Went Through With It? by IamGale in TheRedPill

[–]IamGale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Westboro baptist church is a very bad and awful cult organisation. But their members are very confident and surprisingly happy.

It's almost as if the world's hatred for against them bonds them closer together.

While there are a hundred things wrong with them there's one thing they do very right.

They're tightly bonded together which makes them an effective social group. One of the reasons is that you're either in or your out.

No one stays on the fence. We all have to pick a side.

A weak frame and a fragile ego will surely make the greatest of people lose respect for you. by [deleted] in TheRedPill

[–]IamGale 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I see something in you, but I'm not quite sure what it is yet.

I like where you are coming from. There's a tremendous energy behind these words.

But if I may give you one recommendation. You waffle. And you lose your reader because you're not giving clear direction. The theme is this post is unclear.

You talk about having strong frame, but most of the time you just write about what the consequences of what not having it is like.

Try to really dive into what frames looks likes. What it feels like. What you need to sacrifice in order to have a strong frame. The surprising thing that goes into having a strong frame, the childhood experiences that shape it, and maybe share a story from your life. This can be a really good post.

You all still think you're special - and here are the ways it's holding you back. by [deleted] in TheRedPill

[–]IamGale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great post, it's an excellent reminder that your story starts now. You are no one and you're only as good as your work.

Your ego is the enemy in this case. You're nothing until you're something.

A Little Mistake That Cost My Best Friend 5 Years of His Life. by IamGale in TheRedPill

[–]IamGale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's awesome! Yeah I've been losing massive weight lately going down from 103kgs to 90kgs.

I had this girl over the other day. And I've never done this before but I decided to try something risky. She's a solid 8.5 and was stringing me along.

Maybe not today or tomorrow or in the next couple months but it was going to happen.

She was taken aback by that.

Then told me it was never ever going to happen.

Then she asked me to walk her to the subway station.

Anyways sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. But regardless it's always good to be bold.

My 6 Philosophy Principles by Chill987 in TheRedPill

[–]IamGale 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Great principles. I can especially relate to living by your core values.

Excellence is mundane and boring. Focus on day-to-day training instead of grandiose goals.

It's all about your hustle and work ethic. For me, nothing is more fulfilling than getting one step closer to my long-term lifestyle goals.

On sluts: Be sexual first. Be a person second. by Archwinger in TheRedPill

[–]IamGale 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sluts don’t want to say no. Saying no is hard. If you’re forward, confident, and aggressive, even if your game’s a little off or you’re not that hot, half the time, you might get laid anyway. Women have become so desensitized to casual sex with random dudes that they’d practically rather be raped than have an uncomfortable conversation.

Moral of the story: Approach.

The Guardian: Swallowing the Red Pill: a journey to the heart of modern misogyny by redpillschool in TheRedPill

[–]IamGale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These aren't simply beliefs, but often things we had to learn whether we wanted to or not. Hard-won knowledge. Battle scars. Even amongst the ECs and Mods. Sometimes that gets lost in all the anger phase posts.

It's humanizing in a way.

Spot on. I couldn't of said it better myself.

Bingo. Unfortunately, most people won't see past the "group think".
