Reaching the status as a solid provider is my nirvana🧡

For better or worse our civilisation is built on the shoulders of these "normal" men. I'm grateful for everything they can do.

People vastly underestimate how much effort it takes to keep a household, marriage and family together. It doesn’t happen on accident, rather with a ton of hard work and sacrifice.

Dudes without families really have no idea. It’s the equivalent of being a black belt in BJJ. No one knows what we’re capable of.

Your kids are the ultimate proof of work. How you raise them, what you teach them, your relationship with your spouse, family, your values.. everything rubs off on the kids. They’re basically walking mirrors. View quoted note →

When the mid-curve is really the high-curve.

Getting married and having kids will make you level up as a man faster and further than anything else. View quoted note →

Capping at 3 kids for more “me time” is lame though

Sounds nice

Men won't fight for civilization when they don't have families.

We've come full circle, we're no longer making fun of NPCs we're encouraging people to become them.

yes, men who care, who know how to care that's what we need

Only if that dude is also stacking Sats. And agree being a parent is the shit. Hardest, best gig ever. LFG

I agree. Highly recommend Ordinary by Michael Knowles.

The mean man is not a mean man… (Mathematical mean)

I understand the overarching point but isn’t the ordinary father described here living in an illusory world? I’ll trade truth for one dimensional/ ignorance is bliss normalcy all day

Always tell new fathers-to-be that a kids will give you enough energy to 10x anything in a few years. Ride the wave. Learn you can grind w 4-5 hours of sleep. Crush it for a decade and you will be set by the time the kid is 10.
