Again this is incongruent with you hypothesis, how can you say that the environment is part of the problem if your peers are part of the environment? The environment affects you and influences you (I am glad we agree on that), yet it's not the problem, the problem is only in your mind...
Since you stated that there was alleged "finger pointing", according to the nurture theory people are influenced by their peers, surroundings and events. In sort the environment you were brought up in forms your ego (for lack of a better word), and in your post you seemed to create the idea that you should not analyze these factors (as in order to analyze the subject must be specified so you would have to look at the things you blame already) in order to see why they affected you… These are some reasons why it was believed you denying the logic of the nurture approach.
This particular example seems to state that our environment has adopted a blame approach, being creatures of who adapt to their environment (as you said a blame environment) we would have blame mechanisms in order to protect the ego that was created by the environment:
“I see a lot of finger pointing going on again. Is that what our society is reduced to? Pointing the finger saying we aren't what we want to be because of this person or that person?”
This could relate to any of the factors within the environment, and since we have concluded that we live in a blame society we have also need to realize that we have deep in-built protection mechanisms in order to protect our egos. Since we have assumed we live in a blame society we could also hypothesize that the mechanism might involve blame shifting. It is also believed that in order to attain change these mechanism must be disarmed and further procedures must be taken to re-assemble the ego… certainly more complex methods than the old pat on the back a you don’t get anywhere pointing your finger… yet since the environment is one of the problems the environment is at fault so there would be no shifting of blame using your logic:
“When are we, as a people (and especially those of you who come here) going to realize that you don't get ANYWHERE by pointing your finger! You don't get anything by shifting the blame!”
This swooping assumption targets about everyone who read this vague statement, can be interpreted as relating to their surroundings and events which lead to their situation, Thus damming those who believe that their situation/world is "screwed up" (by believing that your reality is screwed up you are blaming your reality for your situation, instead of seeing the situation for what it really is) not to mention that in this bracket you would be including the sick, elderly and disabled would also be default cowards:
“That's all there is, and anybody who points their finger and blames the world for their own screwed up situation is nothing but a coward.”
Again throughout your post you seemed to follow the belief that blame should not be given yet you are saying that our environment is affecting us and making us lose our goals/power, so why the sudden change of heart? If we do live in such a heinous society then it would be guilty for molding us into whom we are, thus your final statement is the only that shows that you believe society is a problem:
“We live in a society of armchair warriors, who seem to have lost all sight of what their aim in life is, because we get it crammed down our throats from the media, from our leaders, and from anybody who is in power.”
As for your third question if you make a general statement I can only relate to it as a singular entity, and I do find it slightly patronizing how you made it out to be some grandiose discovery as it is just but simple psychology “everything is in your mind”. And as far as I know in order to really tackle a problem you must fight them head on as is any other irrational fear. You discover the problem, you appraise the problem, you create a plan to tackle the problem.
I thought I would answer your questions since you seemed quite polite and since you did not adopt Pook’s writing style you seemed quite pleasant, I hope I was able to answer your queries on the response I made to your post. Finally we arrive at your intent, the reason why I believed you were a “troll” is because you were attempting to explain concepts too crudely attempting to emulate Pook’s writing style (the high post count did not help either). Let us tackle each at a time shall we:
In order to remove said apathy you must first understand what motivates people to do things, I think you might have had the idea of motivation but what it sounded to me was more like “hmm… you have been shot five times in the chest, here is a bandy now back to the Frey”. The apathy will still be there because you have only given a small fix, a hollow victory. Remember that people use rage in order to confront their fears this is where the fight or flight approach kicks in. If they are in a rage they are more likely to fight, if they fight and win then they the next time round will be easier. I used the rage my ex made me feel to motivate me to go and meet more women and make more friends, it got to the point where I had a reputation at the Pub I used to drink and work on.
Natural game… well what can I say there was nothing really that would of suggested that in your previous posts, the only reason we use “tips and tricks” is to get past our primary sticking points; canned openers, negs, DHVs, etc are there just to boost your confidence then it starts being natural, It’s like learning to ride a bike you get training wheels when you’re a kid and then the training wheels come off. If you chuck a kid on a bike without training wheels they will still be afraid of the bike and will learn it much slower.
To inspire people to be more? That to me sounds like a dreams of grandeur, but how will you inspire people to be more? I mean the Pook style heist was not really awe inspiring or thought provoking for that matter you have just regurgitated yet another stereotypical post that excites people for a while but has no lasting impression…
Again do as you will, yet those who are not willing to learn beyond the box shall stay trapped there. Let me give you a little tip… You are not special, you are not an mPUA you are just a rAFC. The faster undertand this the more good it will do ya, and the faster you will be able to get back to the path of becoming a real PUA.
Ya didn’t need to explain yourself in the first place chief.
Love
Amethyst
