| Let’s get real here for a bit. There’s a problem that comes up whenever guys that consult with me try to address issues that their friends who do not consult with me come to them with. There’s 2 ways to help your friend in that situation. 1— “Bro, and I say this with all respect, you fucked this up from the very beginning. There is no ‘Land of Happy Ever After’ at the end of the road you’re on. You can’t get there from here; you never could, you never will. Seriously, you are on a rocket ship headed straight to Planet Fuckt, aimed at Fukt continent, towards the country of Fukt, the state of Fukt, Fukt city, address fuckety-fuckety-fuck-fuck avenue, Fukt Villas, apartment Fukt.” You probably won’t say that because you’re smarter than most. Second option. Which I remind on a daily basis is something to the effect of: 2— “That is a tough situation. You’ve been through worse so I know you’ll get through this. I wish you all the best.” This is the diplomatic, responsible approach that keeps you sane. For some reason you have the bad habit of wanting to help and save people who do not want you help and do not want to be saved. Why try? People who want to wake up, save themselves, and get help are ALREADY do all that work. If your frinds are like that, your conversations will go a lot different. But they aren’t DOING the works. They genuinely want the life they have and keep showing you that they do not want you to change. They don’t want advice to level up like you. They want to be comforted about staying where they are. So comfort them in the moment. Spend less time with them if necessary. Do not talk about the subjects you and I discuss here with them. Wish them well being happy doing what they do. Giving them advice on things I taught you would only confuse them because they have no context. It would also make them think and talk poorly of you so your reputation is ruined. Anything more is disrespectful to them. It shows you only care about yourself and your comfort. Grow up already. Stop whining over split milk.Build a better network of friends who talk about real problems facing them and their families. Brother’s Keeper could help. Remember: EVERY MAN is aware of his actions and happy living his life. If he wasn’t he would be making obvious moves to change his life just like you do.The latter are guys you need to invest more time with as you replace the former ones on that other path. Simple.
