Big time lurker here, but I wanted to say thank you to TRP and thought sharing my story might help those who are/were in a similar spot. Might be kinda long, but hopefully worth the read and insightful.

I discovered TRP probably a year ago, no surprise I found it because someone had called it evil or hateful or some such nonsense in an askreddit thread. I read the sidebar, started devouring the top posts, and reading any literature I could get my hands on. It was a real eye opener, yet I wasn't ready to swallow. I had the typical NAWALT or I'm searching for a unicorn mentality. Consequently, my life did not improve and I languished with depression, loneliness, and an internal 24/7 pity party for myself.

Now just a little background on my situation as it was. I'm 32, no kids, about 5'10" and weighing around 190 lbs. I have a steady job and my own place, I ain't rich by any means. Anyway, I guess I could say I have had moderate success with women before TRP (if we're basing it simply on sticking my dick in girls). Thing was, it never worked out, and looking back much of my teens and 20's were spent as a cringe worthy beta filled with jealousy of those guys who "always got the girl". I always dated down and settled for the scraps.

It all changed this past March. I made the stupid and unforgivable mistake of getting behind the wheel after drinking. I was pulled over, arrested, spent the night and next day in county jail. To be brief, the system had it's way with me, and I did get off easier than some do for the same offense. I think it was this event that provided illumination for taking control of my life in a positive way.

With no license for a year, and having substantial fines to pay, it pretty much forced me into monk mode. I came back and re-read TRP, swallowed it, digested it. I took the principles and tailored them to the strengths of my personality. I started going for a daily walk, which soon turned into a daily jog, which soon turned into a morning jog and an evening jog. I started light lifting with nothing more than a couple empty milk jugs filled with sand. I started doing push ups and crunches every morning as well. Soon enough, I got over the stigma of being self conscious and started taking full advantage of the fitness center in my apartment complex.

I embraced the abundance mentality. I learned to smile more. I started saying hello to everyone, making eye contact, acting interested in girls I would never have approached before because of my own insecurities. I took up a new hobby and discovered I love to paint even though I'm no Picasso.

I stopped making excuses for myself and owned my failures and successes. People around me could see that I valued myself more than I ever did in the past and it becomes contagious. It inspires those around you to try to better themselves. I took pussy off the pedestal and you know, started talking to girls like they are fucking human beings who are also flawed, just like me. My life has done a 180 and now I get approached by girls, people look to me for insight and guidance, I'm more in control than I've ever been. Just wanted to say thank you TRP, you changed my life, maybe even saved it! TRP should be required reading for all men who are depressed and unhappy with their station in life.

Fuck yea bro your post gave me the chills:

"I embraced the abundance mentality. I learned to smile more. I started saying hello to everyone, making eye contact, acting interested in girls I would never have approached before because of my own insecurities. I took up a new hobby and discovered I love to paint even though I'm no Picasso."

THIS SO MUCH! If you do what he says in this paragraph, you literally have a better chance with a girl than 75% of men, since most men dont smile, dont make eye contact and never approach! You are the man all women are looking for!

Dude, no joke doing 2 a days will make you a better man. Something about working out twice in one day...it produces so much testosterone that women can smell it and you are super relaxed everywhere you go!

Keep killing it brother

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
