Cultivating Self-Worth: Why You Don't Need Others to...

Beyond Success ·

2024/04/11

One of the best ways to become more attractive to women, to feel more fulfilled in your life, and to generally boost your happiness is by building up your internal self-worth. But this practice is easier said than done. And men today often make the mistake of trying to build their self-worth on external sources, like needing attractive women to be attracted to them. This not only backfires, but creates an unrelenting source of neediness that’s waiting to poison any relationship they get into.

2024/04/04

There’s a psychological condition that’s been flying under the radar for too long. It’s a form of PTSD that builds up from more minor-seeming traumas you experienced throughout your life. And it may be the saboteur of your dating life and relationship success. Worst part? Most men have no idea it’s lurking in the shadows of their psyche. So, what’s this condition? It’s something called Complex PTSD, or c-PTSD for short. It makes the work seem like an endlessly challenging place. But by

How to Transform Neediness into Unconditional Love

Beyond Success ·

2024/03/28

There’s often a fine line between love and neediness, especially for men. Women have a sixth sense to sniff out neediness, which can leave you confused and unconvinced unconditional love even exists. But when you look closely into the differences between love and neediness, you’ll see how diametrically opposed these two states are. Love comes from a place of abundance, neediness from lack. Love is based on internal validation, neediness on external validation. But if you can’t even tell the

Many men don’t understand the difference between sadness and self-pity. And this lack of understanding comes with a big cost: You sacrifice joy and growth when you confuse sadness for self-pity. Now, this isn’t your fault, per se. Most modern men grew up believing toxic masculinity myths like that crying is a sign of weakness. Not only is this false, it’s objectively wrong and science has proved this. When you embrace and process sadness in a healthy way, it’s no longer an emotion to be feared but

How To Foster a Balanced, Growth Oriented Relationship

Beyond Success ·

2024/03/14

A relationship is an investment from both parties. When these investments tip to one side or another, it plants the seeds of resentment and destruction. This is why nice guys and people pleasers who bend over backwards for their partner find themselves cheated on and heartbroken. While bad guys get the girl (even though it doesn’t blossom into true love). The best way to ensure a relationship is growth-oriented and fulfilling is by balancing the investment scales. But how do you do this in a

How To Elevate Your Mating Value On The Spot

2024/03/07

We're wired to value what we work for more highly than what comes easily. This especially applies to relationships. But a lot of men accidentally plant the seeds of resentment in their relationships because they have a desire to prove their worth to their girlfriend or wife. But when you do everything for her, you’re actually robbing her of her ability to connect with you on the deepest level. A better solution is doing the opposite: The more your partner invests in you and your relationship, the

There’s a lot of modern men, especially those who frequent Red Pill and manosphere blogs, forums, and websites, that are deeply unhappy and unfulfilled. But instead of using this as an opportunity to grow, they use it as a way to let their anger percolate. What happens to these men is they let their anger blind them from the possibilities life presents: Happiness, fulfillment, love. There’s another, often overlooked, path if you find yourself living an unfulfilled life. This rarely trotted path?

Today, we’re discussing perhaps one of the most important aspects of not only dating success, but to your entire life: Your attachment style. If left unchecked, your attachment style can lead to a cycle of unhealthy relationships, constant anxiety, and an underlying sense of insecurity and unhappiness. It’s like living in a house with a foundation that’s cracking, but choosing to ignore it. Ignore it long enough, and the whole structure is at risk. If you have an anxious attachment style—one of

Nothing can kill an otherwise good relationship as quickly as not having healthy boundaries in place. Without these boundaries, toxic interactions start to infect the relationship. Over time, resentment builds as the relationship becomes unbalanced and draining. The problem is, setting healthy boundaries is a difficult task, especially if you struggle with being assertive. You want to have empathy for your partner, and boundaries seem like a selfish short-cut. But this is a myth. In fact, setting

2024/01/18

There’s a catch-22 that happens in almost every long-term relationship: The more intimate your relationship becomes, the more it triggers unresolved, unconscious issues. This may explain seemingly random explosions of anger over minor disagreements or waves of sadness and low self-esteem. Despite our wishes, repressing painful emotions doesn’t make them disappear into thin air. Instead, they simmer under the surface, and pop up when you least expect it. The problem is, these explosions of repressed

When a relationship hinges on sexual attractiveness, it’s doomed to fail. Yet despite all the scientific evidence about attractiveness fading over time, the first step most men take when their relationship falters is improving their attractiveness. They think that if only they had a 6-pack or more designer brand clothes that this will magically make their partner fall back in love with them. But nothing is further from the truth.

There's a pervasive myth in society today, especially among high achievers. And that myth is that repression is a reliable and sustainable tool for success. Why is this myth so pervasive? Well, this strategy sort of works in the short-term, fooling high achievers into thinking that it’s a sound strategy. But over time, as your protective parts work harder and harder to repress these nasty emotions, they end up resurfacing and causing more trouble than they ever did. This is what leads to

This is an insidious Catch 22—by repressing your emotions you cannot fully celebrate your accomplishments. This nasty habit of emotional repression also extends to your dating life and relationships.

One of the most damaging societal myths we believe is that marriage or having a baby can fix underlying relationship issues. This myth isn’t only misleading, but it creates more significant issues down the road. For example, breaking up is much easier (mentally and financially) than getting a divorce. Bringing a child into this world under the wrong pretenses can burden your children with deep-seated trauma that takes decades to fix. The truth? Marriage and parenthood aren’t solutions to your
