Choose Your Bananas Carefully.

Subject: How To Pick The Right Bunch of Bananas.


Net Work = Net Worth.

It’s time for a short story about bananas. 

When a banana is joined together with other bananas in a bunch, that banana will ripen faster and that banana will rot slower. 

But if you seperate one of those bananas from the bunch, and you place it ALONE - the banana takes more time to ripen, and less time to rot. 

End of story.

The lesson?

Humans are pack animals.

Since the dawn of time we have formed alliances, armies, villages, communities, states, nations and countries - to advance together towards common goals. 

You may have heard the saying that No Man Is An Island. 

This is absolutely true. 

Men are biologically wired to BELONG to something bigger than themselves.

Although they have the capacity to do so, they are not wired to be isolated and associated with nobody.

Living in this manner is a recipe for insanity and misery.

So there is tremendous value in belonging to something bigger than YOURSELF. 

And there are certain things that will ONLY happen when you belong to something bigger than yourself with the RIGHT people.


Such As:

  • Extreme Personal Growth. 

  • Exposure to Higher Levels of Thinking. 

  • Access to Valuable Knowledge

  • Being Held Accountable To High Standards


Harder To Destroy.

Bananas ripen faster and rot slower when they are joined together with OTHER bananas, but when you pull one of those bananas away from the bunch, it will take more time to ripen and less time to rot.

The moral of the story is this.

You become harder to destroy and you develop faster as a man, when you are part of an alliance of other exceptional men who have high standards.

Ever heard of the Mastermind?

The Mastermind is a group of exceptional individuals who have joined forces and who are combining their energy and resources in a joint effort to achieve a particular goal.

Even if those individuals all have different goals, the combined force of their energy lifts the entire group and causes them to grow as one. 

Throughout history all great men of power and ambition have existed in groups where they shared ideas, pooled resources and leveraged the skills of other members.

The result of this is something that the lone wolf will never achieve.

The result is dangerous.

Why?

One exceptional man can move mountains if he really wants to. 

If he knows HOW to use his mind correctly.

But a group of exceptional men that understand reality, can move the entire fucking world. 

It’s been done before. 

It’s BEING done as we speak, but not in a way that serves the interests of the majority.

For many years I wandered the earth as a Lone Wolf. 

I walked alone through the dark valleys of life, and up the jagged mountains of manhood. 

I sailed across raging seas and fought every battle ALONE with no brothers by my side. 

Afraid to get close to anyone and afraid to trust - I did all things by myself.

That’s exactly why I always knew so much, but executed so little. 

It’s exactly why I was never able to create a successful and lasting outcome in anything I pursued.

Men need to belong to a brotherhood. 

They NEED to be held accountable to higher standards, initiated to higher levels, crushed without mercy for displays of incompetence and weakness.

For this IS the way of men. 

And it has been for millions of years.

The modern world has destroyed this ancient way, replacing it with girly men and manly girls.

So now it’s more important than ever to belong to something that preserves the essence of what it means to have a cock and two balls between our legs.

Else it will be forever lost, at least in the western world.

This year I joined an alliance of men who are what I want to become - exceptional in every aspect of their life - rich, healthy, dangerous, free.

I paid what normal people would consider a lot of money to join this group.

And it was the single most important decision of my life so far.

No longer do I wander as a Lone Wolf

I’m one of the many few.

A disciple, a student.

A monk among his fellow monks, seeking everlasting life through legacies of immortality.


 

Choose Wisely. 

If you want to kick ass and take names on a full-time basis, you can’t join ANY bunch of bananas. 

You must find the right crew.

The reason for this is very simple.

Most people are professional time wasters with NOTHING of value to offer you.

All they do is talk about bullshit that does absolutely nothing to improve their circumstances. 

Whinge. Wine. Bitch. Complain. 

About their boss, their manager, their shitty job, their shitty income, their bills and the rest of their fucking problems. 

It’s all they know, and it’s why they’re broke.

Instead of DOING something about all the things THEY have royally fucked up in their life, these stupid cunts just insist on talking about it endlessly. 

You don’t need this.

It solves nothing and distracts you from what does matter.

If you have to deal with people who are like this, don’t join in with their blabbering. 

Be deaf to it.

When it comes to choosing your bananas, you should choose a bunch that looks like the banana you want to become.

Remember that you are the result of who you associate with the most. 

And you WILL become what you think about more than anything else. 


Consider The Following Questions: 

  • What kind of life do my close friends have - what’s their income, who’s in their network, what resources do they have access to?

  • What do I think about most of the time - is it money, success, conquering, or is it failure, lack of money and losing?


If you answered honestly, you will find the following two things to be true. 

You are on the SAME level as the people who you associate with the most.

You have EXACTLY what you think about more than anything else.

There is no magic involved here. 

Only the way of Bananas.

You become your friends and you get what you think about most of the time.

So if you want to reach higher levels, you need to associate with people on higher levels. 

If you want to be a great writer, you must befriend great writers. 

If you want to be a professional fighter, go train with professional fighters. 

If you want to escape the matrix, find Morpheus.

This is simple, but it works. 

There’s a reason winners only associate with other winners. 

I just explained IT to you. 

Apply this wisdom,  or don’t apply it.

The choice is YOURS. 

And it always will be.
