This guy is the real deal. Been watching him from 14-20. I remember sending him some photos when I lost some weight when I was 14 and he hyped me up. Was in the pits when I was 16, messaged him and he helped me out. This is the only Manospheric channel I watch and the only one I need to watch. Keep marching forward Elisha, high thumos.
I truly realized through a "networking" dinner for the college I'm going to the other day that it's not that hard to talk to girls. I didn't follow any redpill, alpha male advice. I just used my mouth piece and humor and acted like a normal dude.
Bro that's the core of redpill advice They break down to so simple levels People think there are to many things to but in reality it's just be funny drop her anxiety don't be pushy
@@GE0attackhe has a point. Some of that Redpill advice pretty stupid. It’s a lot of snake oil salesman peddling hopium to disaffected young men. So it’s like you learn stupid tactics on how to bend women to your will, which can work but only for so long. Some of its great but you can easily fall into the abyss following Redpill dating advice. The Redpill is best for motivation to work and improve your life.
We really do need to start valuing our own opinions and thoughts over other peoples. Crazy how conditioned we have become to constantly need that external validation when we are the only ones who hold that control. Confidence begins w the belief that u hold real value and are a privilege. Truly are happy to be who you are and aren’t afraid to celebrate that. Good energies will collide because that’s what you’ll attract. Love the consistency on the videos Elisha.
@@ElishaLong Life's good man, there's those days but can't complain. Recently have been going hard in the gym, especially since I have more time on my hands after quitting my job. Worked there for 5 years, was my job throughout high school but hit a point in my life where I wanted a change. Accepting the uncertainty that comes with that and just using my time now to really pour into bettering myself. Discovered your channel a while back and it's nice to see someone make real life content that is applicable in many ways. Hope you are also doing well, congrats on your move wish you nothing but blessings. Live in Chicago would be cool to come to a meetup or just gather along guys with similar mindsets and goals. So many channels focus primarily on how to look better, not saying it's not beneficial but there's more to just appearance. It's nice you go deeper in becoming more aware as a person, learning how to build better habits and live a more intuitive life. Overall health is the real wealth. Currently I am 21 and I am in no rush to move out of my parents house but ready to become more independent. Really feel life will truly start to unfold and thrive because I am the one in charge of making it happen. Anything is achievable/able to be manifested. Im sure there's so many other people who can relate living at home is comfortable but comes with a price.
Videos like this remind me how lost I was. I am way off the path and have a lot of catching up to do. I’m not young anymore and may never recover but F it, I don’t make the rules. Thanks Elisha
I bet this will become Elisha’s most viewed video based on that title. Any video regarding women become some of the highest viewed on this channel….in all respect though great video! I’ve come to realize that it’s really not that hard to talk to women and get a women to like you. All you really have to do is just be your authentic self, chill out and talk to them like you would any other person. It’s sometimes easier said than done, particularly around women you really like or find attractive, but the same rules still apply regardless of the person. And not every women is going to like you just like you don’t like every women, and that’s fine! Also, having ‘game’ or having ‘rizz’ is really just you being able to be comfortable in your own skin around women. When your comfortable with your surroundings your able to just express your authentic self and be funny - which is different for every man. You don’t need witty one liners, or stupid pick up strategies, you just need to learn to be comfortable talking to women.
Great video Eli. Best book I ever read similar to everything you’re talking about in this video is The Book of Pook. It really helped me get out of my head and quit overthinking so much.
Listening to this video is reassuring because I already knew each point Elisha is making. Shows how much i've learned with the years hoho Also i'm seeing a girl right now who is very honest and straightforward about this as well ''girls like men who have a vision, who believe in themselves, dont self-criticize'' and not to be too clingy and overt with your love. Show her love in a bigger way
I think the way you ended this "Show her love in a bigger way." Is really great. They don't like loads of flowers and 'I love you's' they want you to give the energy of your love, it's a case of allowing them the freedom to be open and fully femanine by being totally masculine and loving towards her. 'Set her free with your love". Saying 'I love you' isn't going give her a sense of freedom and openness. However, in her moments of madness if you still pull her close and kiss her neck, then she feels loved. I may or may not be reading The Way of The Superior Man... This was good revision.
I am a woman watching this and this is so true. Made me realize I need to stop chasing after wimpy men (try to give them the benefit of the doubt) 🤣 But deep down I know I don’t want that. I want a man like this!
That really does match my experience with my gf pretty well! I did have it tough as a young guy and due to the dark times I've figured out a lot of stuff to share with her. I do worry that I am a bit obsessed with women but luckily I have been able to channel it towards one person and I think I'm pretty loyal to the people in my direct life. I do have a bit of a scoundrel/provocative side to me sometimes though.
Elisha, I first saw your videos back in 2018 when I was 18. You've only gotten better. Maybe especially lately. I like that you talk about the Bible etc. Keep going
@@ElishaLong Later this month, yeah. Back then I had a huge crusg on an exchangestudent and was about to fly out to Austria to meet her and get my heart absolutely smattered. Some months later I got my first GF though back home. Thank you for responding btw. I've got 2 questions if you don't mind answering. Some hot girls have stared at me during the last couple years or have said that I look good. Yet I don't know how to iniate or move the ball roling, whether it'd be strangers or at work etc. It always ends up wrong or I simply don't do anything at all. Today at sales training a cute 20 year old (who I would put put of my league in a heartbeat before I noticed a pattern of girls staring at me) said I looked like an aryan viking today and kept iniating interactions with me sometimes over the last couple days. But I feel weird at work. Idk. Especially when that happens in group settings. I have a hard time being both serious and fun and easy going. I am either or. I have gotten mixed reactions from girls based on what I was doing. "Fun, nice vibes" and "disturbing" I've both got from hot girls. I also can't hear through by right ear cause of wax blockage of nearly 2 weeks, and this has made less secure socially. How do I get the ball rolling? My goal isn't to get laid, but to be able to smoothly talk to any girl and be charming, and then later marry and have lots of kids with a great woman. 2nd question: What tips do you have for me as a newbie D2D salesman?
36years old ...gf just left went back to her country...need to start everything from scratch, im trying to stay focused and move up and try to live normally again, however im mentally stuck, traumatized...cant get my head straight. I struggle at work and have no support group. this man here helps me stay positive and motivated. However in reality is how on earth do i get back on my feet. I am living the rat life right now. Crappy skin, terrible hair, not enough money coming in and just surviving basically. I'm not a young man anymore so my hope is dying ..the only thing i keep pushing is going to the gym and hoping to find a decent woman. I live in Europe and moving back to Japan alone in April 2025.
First statement: "many men have become women." So true! Me, as a woman, half latina and half from Northern Europe have to admin that the men (in northern europe) have become like that, part a toxic side effect of feminism. Women here, besides gaining all equal rights, have developped many masculine traits, women wear the pants in many relationships. It makes me sad to see what has become of the inversed roles. I just melt and I know I can relax into my femininity, when i see a man shining in his masculine energy. I dont care about looks, but if he shows me that leadership, showing iniciative, healthy lifestyle and if i feel containment, that is just everything for me. Please guys, dont be afraid to step into your masculine energy. It is what the world needs most of ❤
lesgetit, ain't ever gonna be the same person anymore. Really thought that she was my soulmate until I realized it was just my attraction:) turns out so, life is life. Gotta beat it. Love yourself first, always, no one will hurt you like this.
I am 71 married once she passed away did not date before or after her I am a sigma, and very introverted, love women but they are so dam crazy i leave them alone, I like things way more than people
I saw a post about Thumos introduction or something, and you had a list of groceries to buy and foods I can't seem to find it now :( interested in what kind of foods I need
That quote was by Marcus Aurelius I believe. By the way mate if you ever wrote a book sometime I would gladly buy it! (and read it) Also, this may not be your type of thing but it may be a good idea either hosting a few podcast episodes with guests or on someone else's podcast. But again, it depends alot on different factors. Lastly, it is absurd how any self respecting man hasn't already built a tree house in that garden yet :)
First of all she needs to like your appearance, then it's easy as you said, if she doesnt like your face, height or body, then it's just a waste of time
Haha bro, you are an incredibly good speaker and storyteller, I'm half convinced you are taking a few lines of coke before your videos to get into the zone. Haha just kidding bro. You are a legend and love your persona. Man this is totally out of context but I'm a chef that struggles with drinking. My shinigami and I, we both know this isn't good as it affects our ability to get up early in the morning, workout and do what we need to do. This is a long shot and bro I know you don't have all the answers but I'd be interested in your thoughts on substances, especially alcoholism
Hey man. No coke, just Thumos. This happens when you live healthy. Good sleep, sun, food, training, and brotherhood. Try to get the basics down. This will fill you with Spiritedness
@@Rio000oo ask any of them out and go with the one that puts the effort in. I’ve wasted so much time on dating apps man. Get the number, meet her in person and go from there.
just because men are competitive and more concerned with making sure they seem smart to others, does not mean they are philosophising more than women are. Women are also significantly more likely to experience depression. You could say people care more about female depression, which would mean that men have a harder time in that aspect of life. But no, there is no objective measure of who has it harder.
Most of this depends on your ability to speak. And ability to speak has to do with natural born talent, more precisely with your natural personality brain type. Some people simply don't have the openness trait which gives you a natural ability to ideate and think fast, which comes off as an ability to be creative and speak well. It's similar to natural high intelligence, it's something your brain ether was lucky enough to have or not. Some people literally do not have that. In elementary school it was already clear which kids naturally had that mouth piece and which didn't.
Brother the best way to become better at speaking is to speak. We have a sort of Toastmasters in our group. Weekly voicechats that have helped me and a ton of other guys. You should try joining us sometime If I had to recommend a book though it would be "Compelling People."
Despite the financial sanctions against my country, I will find a way around it to be able to join the forum and I'm going to start reading your recommended book. As you mentioned the best way to overcome fear and improve social skills is achievable by doing more and more So I try to use my daily chances to speak more with people.

Learn to ask good quality questions and actually listen.
The real “redpill” is to be a normal guy that takes care of himself. That’s how it always has been, and how it always will be.

Thanks for this wisdom! May God bless you and your loved ones ❤
I don't say that you are right or wrong, I just took what I needed
One can be as confident as they want…but Physical Attractiveness comes first.
confidence is still a big factor fat guys still get women
False. Women want a guy that acts like a man. They don’t want a pretty boy that couldn’t hurt a fly.
