Former Community – We Moved
🆕 Coached community here, for posts & feedback public community here.
Hey, honour to join the community.
Hello everyone, awesome to join this powerful forum.
I have just bought Power University and I have been studying, internalizing and using this sites material for a good while now, the free content. This site is a special kind of training grounds that the world needs, and I thank Lucio for the content here and giving so much free value with good intentions. I am excited to jump into the Power University.
I'll introduce myself. I am a person who from a young age (13 years old) was somewhat of an outcast in life. I was heavily invested in alot of things no-one cared about, I never liked "fitting in" with the groups and I particularly distained "groupthink" and the ignorance of these groups, and then the fact that most of the world were clones of eachother following groups and idea's with no authenticity in themselves. Anyway, as I grew up, I had the dream to travel to the other side of the world and test myself in sports and leave my hometown. It was a beautiful and hard experience 😁 but I enjoyed it and developed alot of qualities.
It's now a little bit later and alot has happened and I've used it all to transform my life drastically. I used all of my depression and resentment and bitterness and hate and pain as fuel to transform myself. I lost 28kilograms in a year, achieved a jacked body. Levelled up my mindset, got better finances and I have waaaay higher-value behaviour (I'm kind of an all or nothing, radical, very emotionally driven person).
I never had guidance growing up and I was hopelessly clueless of power dynamics. In fact, I was so clueless that upon reading this material and seeing how damn near everyone "does" power dynamics naturally, obviously not good or skilled, but damn near everyone knows about high value behaviour and such subsconscoiusly to a low level. I used to have ZERO idea of this thing and was just a really nice honest guy being very helpful to others and being taken advantage of and walked over and thrown away. yeah, you get it...
It's really great to be around people like you guys and I love the premise of this site. It's a privilege to interact with others here and I would for us to learn from eachother and we can grow together.
Thanks.
It's an honor to have you here, underdogexceptional -and cool nickname-.
Thank you for the kind words, mad props for all the great length you've already covered, and cool to read you're already rocking.
I share with you the same upbringing with very little guidance -including for good mindsets, power dynamics or just social skills in general-.
For social skills and power dynamics, I remember as a kid listening to my parents -my mom especially- talk to some guests and neighbors coming over and thinking "wow, they're all SO good at talking and socializing and making friends".
Fast forward to today, same people, and, well... Let's say it's the opposite feeling today. And I look at my mom after a recent event, pained for having been stung and found out that one of her closest cousins was a backstabbing frenemy, and think "wow, how could you not see, the writing was all over the wall".
Anyway, that's just to confirm what you also shared: it's incredible how far one can go and how one can transform his life with focused effort and staying power.
Welcome again, and looking forward to interacting with you!
