If I only conform on my terms....
One without the many?
Many from the one?
Many without the one?
Ones in the manys
One in the many?
If government were to grant rights, it can just as well take them away, thus they would not be inalienable.
If rights were to come from a supernatural force, then those rights would only be as defensible as the existence of the supernatural. Such a mystical belief is an attack on reason and by extension an attack on man himself.
Man is a rational animal who needs to use his rational mind to survive and prosper. Therefore it is required that such a productive man ought to be free of that which undermines the use of his rational mind; initiatory force and fraud.
One's thought process should be rational, connecting everything one senses into an essential concept or into an essential principle.
One's emotions ought to be vigorous, one's self esteem ought to have one feel efficacious.
One ought to have a sense of fortitude in one's convictions.
Reject modernity, embrace reason
The most effective way to promote and defend freedom is the use of critical thinking.
My two most important goals right now are defined as the following:
To convince people to formulate concepts by starting from particulars forming into an abstraction
To develop myself in such a way as to make myself attractive to a particular type of girl
The man who despises himself tries to gain self-esteem from sexual adventures—which can’t be done, because sex is not the cause, but an effect and an expression of a man’s sense of his own value . . .
Ayn Rand
Romantic love, in the full sense of the term, is an emotion possible only to the man (or woman) of unbreached self-esteem: it is his response to his own highest values in the person of another—an integrated response of mind and body, of love and sexual desire. Such a man (or woman) is incapable of experiencing a sexual desire divorced from spiritual values.
Ayn Rand
Your experiences speak louder than other people's experiences
One question to phrase: How do I attract the women whom I'm attracted to, while omitting transaction to the relationship?
If you find yourself often angry, that means that you have a contradiction of your convictions. There is something that you are convinced of that doesn't make sense. Think about each conviction you have rationally.
I came across an interesting pseudo psychological system called socionics, which claims to be able to predict relationship compatibility. The system itself lacked any empirical observational evidence. I thought that if it could correctly predict communication compatibility, then it would verify such a system.
"...the better each person is, the more irascible he will be."
Unknown, student of Aristotle.
People respond much better to a person who enjoys what they are doing. Don't expect people to like you if you don't like yourself.
The single most attractive trait in a man is his self-esteem.
“never trust a person who promises to do tomorrow what they had the power to do yesterday”
Don't expect an audience to care more about you then you care about them. -
