Yes, this is why I want this debate to continue because it's very important and goes above any issues "Tenacity" is having personally. Even though both sides debate each other, the honest answer is that we are both correct and the solution is an integrated aspect of both sides.
T.O.'s side: Life is however you make it, so bring the ambition, passion and tenacity (no pun intended) everyday to your goals/objectives. If you fail, learn what went wrong, fix the inefficiencies, and try again using a different strategy, a different product, a different investor, working in a different market, etc.
LiveFree's side: If the market is inefficient, it doesn't matter how hard you work, how much tenacity (no pun intended) you have, how smart you are, or any other skills/talents/gifts you might possess, your results will still be flawed because you are operating in a bad market.
The reality is that both sides are correct, but it STARTS with having a market that's efficient and once you have identified an efficient market, only then can you apply your passion, tenacity, ambition and skills within said market to create success.
- Why do you guys think foreign people are breaking across the border illegally to get into America? There's more people trying to get HERE than get out, why is that? It's because our economic MARKET is based on a free market capitalistic foundation which means that NOW YOU CAN apply your skills, tenacity, ambitions, passions, etc. to become something. Your skills, tenacity, ambitions and passions mean jack shyt in a foreign country that does NOT have such level of free market structures.
- Anybody ever hear about the mantra in real estate being, "location, location, location"? You can take the most skilled, passionate, ambitious, and tenacious real estate investor, but if he sets his property up in a bad market, he's going to fail or at least NOT have as efficient performance if he brought his system into a efficient market.
What's strange about this debate, is that T.O and HitHard's side seems to believe that no matter WHAT market you are operating in (no matter how fvcked up it is), you can still have excellent performance if you just "try hard enough". This goes against every single business planning mechanism out there. Everything STARTS with what market you operate in, from THERE, you bring the skills, ambitions, tenacity, passions, etc. to acquire market share/success.
Is the American market of women 100% fvcked up? NO. But is the market inefficient compared to what it was 50 years ago, OF COURSE it is. Does the negative affects of feminism and gynocentrism play a part in the high quantity of low quality women in the market today, OF COURSE it does. Despite these facts, can a guy still find a quality woman in this inefficient American market...YES HE CAN....but to act as if that's going to be as simple as just "setting your mind to it and you will achieve it", is just completely off. The market is so inefficient today, it's almost a string of luck to find a girl of quality and MOST of the quality girls in the market, already have boyfriends/husbands. T.O. and Hithard, these are facts dude and you don't have to take my word on it, just do independent study on the American market in terms of dating/relations. There are COUNTLESS studies out discussing this that were done by people who took serious time to conduct the research.
