How to battle the beta inside us. I honestly feel the manliest after been through an adventure. I think life is been marketed as boring and all the new cool stuff these companies put out will make it more fun. I'm planning a backpacking trip for one month just to go somewhere with 100$ and let life take me to whatever adventures there is. Do some extreme sports, martial arts i find that anything that fires up my instincts, really makes me feel like everything i was born to be. Anything to break the boredom of lifes routine. And then you can get back to your routine refreshed and full of energy. Btw i didn't know about your past Elisha my grandparents both raised themselves and their brothers and sisters, and they are the strongest willed people i know.
I plan on doing something similar. First I'd like to save a good amount of money. Then leave everything behind and travel the world, learn from my experiences. Witness true beauty, see what this earth has to offer, go on a real adventure.
Elisha, I went to the gym for the first time ever on Tuesday and started lifting. Today I did my first ever BJJ class. My life is slowly improving and a lot of that is thanks to this channel
You’re strong Elisha. We know your story is dark. Darker than most. But you’ve never let that consume you, and in fact, you have only become a beacon of light for many other men. Risen from the ashes, a beautiful spirit. You are doing volumes more than you could ever know. We all are, so long as we stay on the path, and find solace in the embrace of truth, and earnest self reflection. Godspeed, brother.
@@fernandoaguileracroasdaile6705 dude lost his parents at a young age. Just the thought of that makes me wonder how i would handle it, or whether i could even handle it.
So true, our lives are too easy. Lack of challenge is a lack of purpose, and a lack of purpose means depression. I'm trying more and more to get out of my comfort zone more often as it is quicksand, it is killing me slowly. In 2 hours I'll have my second life modeling session and I'm gonna own it. It's not easy but once again, adventure makes us grow. As a side note: I put this video while doing a 20 minute pose. I wish they would put Elisha videos in the background in the places I am modeling instead of music. I am searching for a more stable job on top of that because I need to get out of the house like you said. My main goal right now,
This is the best video i have ever watched on youtube. ever. Cant wait to get going on rebuilding my social habits and kick that negative person out of my system. I now see it as a challenge. Time to overcome it. Thank you.
Elisha brother thank you so much for everything you're doing man. I'm 20 and going into the national guard as a medic. Leaving my parents house and cultivating a warrior spirit! Never would've taken this step if I hadn't found your channel a little over a year ago. Your impact is immeasurable thank you for being a mentor to me
@@himehomemi5642 It’s brought me the highest highs and the lowest lows of my life. I’ve learned so many lessons in the last 4 years and grown tremendously. Thanks for checking in bro, I’m currently on track to commission as an officer next year. High Thumos Go Army
Much love from Lebanon Elisha. Your fan base stretches pretty wide. You are the big brother I have in a time of me moving out and personal growth. Stay strong and beautiful man
Thanks for sharing your reflections and being honest and true with us. Watching your videos reminds me how rare it is to find people who have a growth mindset. I make do on my own. I've got my spiritual practices, my daily discipline, my purpose. But all my life I've been looking for dudes like you, some sense of brotherhood, to build something great together. It seems all I can find are people living on autopilot. But I'm grateful for the videos. It helps to know I'm not alone, even if we never met. Bless up.
Elishas vids are like a friend lending you a hand when youve fallen down. The thing is the person helping you has to be standing for u too stand up too. Much love
When you were talking about the music industry, it sparked a thought about what im currently doing. I used to listen to a ton of rap and other music, but recently I've only been allowing myself to listen to jazz or something else. It has been helping a lot along with not playing games. Also, I've been eating a lot better, and the mental clarity that just eating right can have is amazing.
Thanks man. I feel like a part of this community, aiming at goals and being stoic in the midst of other losers.. And taking responsibility instead of being bitter. Keep sharing your insights
Appreciate the video brother, love the content.💪🏼👍🏼 I feel like I’ve lost my self identity for about the past 1/2 year. Frightening stuff looking at yourself and seeing a familiar face that you somewhat know. Haven’t felt like “myself” in the longest. Life feels like a “game” & I don’t like it. Hoping striding forward does me well! Take care guys, all love.
Ego has an important goal in the Psyche. It's better to focus on having a health Ego. Learning to become a better actor rather than opt out of the game of life. Not to be moved by criticism or praise. One thing we know about Alexander is that he doesn't stop moving. So, 'Forward' would be his answer.
We don't always have someone in our lives that want to see you become stronger by sharing their unique experience. Not everyone has the courage to share the darker periods of their life. Thank you, Eli, for being that person for so many people.
Truly love it how real you're being telling your story 🙏🏻 Truly happy for you where you are in life right now. Thank you for the precious content, brotha.
Humans, especially young men are MADE to strive. This world of social media, instant bullshit gratification and everything on demand will make you a soft little weasle if you let it. Chart your destination and move ahead ruthlessly, let no-one deter you from your ultimate vision. Listen to people like Elisha, Jordan Peterson, Elliot Hulse and people you admire, try to become like those people so you can respect yourself as you grow and move forwards. Nothing is more important than moving forwards with yourself and taking yourself into chaos and emerging as the victor. Keep crushing it brothers, it'll be worth it infinitely, just keep chipping away.
I don’t think some people know what a magic mushroom experience is all about. Don’t let the stereotype of psychedelics being an escape fool you. We also need leaders in that realm of life as well. For psychedelics to be used properly you need a good community, and leadership within the community to guide people. Right now people are just lost in all areas of their life.
Dang man, I didn't know you lost both of your parents. I can't imagine how hard that must have been. I lost my mom to mental illness when I was 8, I'm now 21. She has never been the same since. I really appreciate you opening up and sharing your story and how you're overcoming every obstacle in your path, it's really helpful to get some insight on mine. Love you bro
love the wisdom, always great. But let's stay focused on the theme of the video as it relates to the title. we end up going all over the place sometimes and are left wanting more or like we didn't get what the title promises/implies. Gratitude, brother💪
I like how Owen Cook (on the RSDtyler channel) puts it: Maximum engagement, no attachment to outcome. If you understand this, you are using your ego, not the other way around.
Gonna turn 24 for this november and im really thankfull for your advice Elisha.Im a new person now.Now I now what life is all about and im ready to face reality with eyes open,im willing to forget about the past and start a new life...One thing that makes me sad is the fact that some people arent capable of getting out of the matrix like i did,its sad,it`s like their killing themselves in front of me and i can`t do anything...
Skateboarding is literally the most frustrating sport I’ve learned, but I can’t keep away from trying to do well at it. I got back home yesterday limping from fatigue being out there for hours learning new tricks but it was worth it.
Skating is cool, looks cool, feels cool no lie that’s about it. Very time consuming. Also dangerous, working hard with a fractured wrist/metal plate in your wrist is wack. Definitely not worth it in the long run. 1:10 of your skater friends are good the rest are worthless. Education is key
Im grateful for you my brother for sharing all that wisdom coming from God for us to be more guided as man, i always wondered if there were more individuals going through similar situations and God has shown me your channel and videos where i can relate 99.99% of what i go through. you are truly a warrior and role model for a lot of us for that thank you so much man keep growing and sharing the knowledge.
For me phisycal Activity helps a lot I put all the sexual Energy i have from nofap into that (lifting and I bought a Jump Rope for rest days) When on a urge do phisycal Activity once you are exhausted , then It Will Be easier to continue
A big part of current mainstream media is for men to be epicurean which causes the mind to become susceptible to psychological neotany. With the constant chase of instant gratification coupled with validation seeking habits prevents critical thinking or at least venturing thoughts that are controversial. With the diminishing value of these dopamine chasing tendencies will then lead to minimal return of investment which can cause depression, due to the perception of you are not getting the same effort that you are putting in. A lot of us are just sleepwalking through life and wake up one day unable to remember who we truly are and what we want to become. But this is just the necessary beginning for undertaking the journey of self-development.
hey bros i just tried a pickup line at uni today and i was beta as fuck and it was really embarrassing and im kinda sad but fuck man it was a step in the right direction, sorta lol. I been chasing a bit too hard for girls recently and it’s been a good eye opening experience to feel this loser vibe lol. Beta shit. But it’s a good lesson. I’ve learned how sheltered I am. How I’ve really just been a dog to my parents that just goes to school and works for the fam. And I’ve been feeling constant disrespect. I could def provide more but i would Feel like I’m giving up even more agency. I am not being tested in terms of warrior spirit. I have no real goals I set for myself, so I lack direction, conviction. Also love the honesty bro. This vid was perfectly timed.
Mushrooms are a way like any other trying experience to break you down, just like getting your ass handed to you in the cage. When the ego is temporarily destroyed there are two choices: feeling empty and descending into the dark catacombs of the anti-man or to understand this fragility and build the self back up with a solid foundation. Both are powerful but only one holds the Light.
Ancient stoicism was more about learning to let go of the things that we have no control over and capitalize on the aspects we do have control over. If any of ya want more info on stoicism I highly recommend the podcast stoicism on fire.
Have you tried the mushroom? I haven’t, yet I feel compelled to somehow. Experience it first before labelling it ‘soft’ in your mind. Oh and check out the old film “once we’re warriors”. Peace
That living at home part really got to me! I’m 18 years old living at home and i just really wish my parents treated me like an adult all the time and not only when necessary. I’m not gonna say i help out all the time but i do try to give money for food, gas, my bills and what not. My parents are looking to get this $4k trailer home and guess who’s paying for it? I am ofc and that’s what i mean by me wishing they treated me like an adult 24/7. When i want to go out or when i wanted to buy a car they treat me like some child but when it’s time to help out they look up to me help out with all their money problems. I’m not saying i want them to pay me back, it makes me glad that they can rely on me now for money issues but all i want is for them to actually treat me like an adult!
Weed made me an asshole that didnt care about anything. Mushrooms, lsd and dmt made me strive for greatness and fix my life up. I was a beta and psychedelics woke me up from the matrix.
Elisha is right about reading stories about heroes for inspiration. Watch Troy and watch closely Achilles. The movie Gladiator. Find Indpiration in these men because they are the ideal character of what a stoic hero is. A person who constantly reaches and falls, reaches and falls until he has reached farther than anybody else. I always remember Alexander the great for whom I so dearly look highly upon for inspiration. The quotes states something like "Even Alexander's failures toppled over other men's greatest achievements". Elisha was right about what Marcus Aurelius said that our we have no power over the universe except for our own will and mind. Alexander believed he was a God and he bent the universe using his own will and achieved eternal immortality. Think about that deeply guys and look for inspiration in your everyday life. When I struggle hard in boxing training I think about the Spartans or when Julius Caesar almost being overrun by barbarians for inspiration to push through the workout. After that I feel glory and magnanimity that cannot be explained in words. It makes every other problem in my life seem like nothing, the temptation of fapping is simply not there because the joy of life overpowers it. Romance with my fair maiden is like a fairytale between us and its goddamn amazing. Problems seem like dirt under my fingernails, everybody at work at my restaurant is complaining while I am having the time of my life and a big grin on my face, every customer at the restaurant is happy with my hospitality and I find so much joy in that. Keep up the fight guys. Practice to be a monk everyday and heed Elisha's words. We are blessed to have the internet and like the God Hermes Elisha sends his messages to us. He changed my life so much and I am so ever grateful Brother Elisha. No retreat, no surrender. No Fap/ PMO + Boxing + Cold showers + Intermittent Fasting + Reading/Drawing/Piano + Work/School = You will feel like a DemiGod
I work 2 jobs as a waiter at a Japanese Restaurant and an Clerk for a Law firm, just mailing stuff usually. Im taking Automotive technology classes at a community college which I really encourage you guys to try, It was cheap for me to learn so much too.
No Fap and Semen Retention will make everything more meaningful in life and make you fight harder. Garlic everyday and a tablet of zinc to you build testosterone. Beware of Temptation guys in every form, suffer and endure life, stop failing habits and promises like no fap or too much videogames. When your retreat to those habits you retreat from yourself and from the fight. Leonidas said "no retreat, no surrender". Do this and I promise you, you will live a life of divinity and purpose and a fire in your belly. Hard times are ahead of us brothers, Like the thousands of Persians that descended upon the Spartans. The future will also descend upon us and we must be ready for the fight.
My take on mushrooms are that they are a tool that, if used for betterment, a superior way to become more masculine both in overall personality and physical strength. It won't lay it all down for you, but it will certainly reveal dozens of opportunities and challenges, by highlighting them while giving you a childlike curiousness and excitement, only few has experienced as adults. With the newly created pathways, a newer/higher level of understanding will emerge, reducing anxiety and depression by a substantial margin; which also means that your addiction behavior will change, making way for loosing it, by decreasing withdrawal effects.
If anything mushrooms boost my conviction, your ego wants to protect you and will tell yourself lies, when you take mushrooms and dissolve the ego you become radically honest with yourself which is what boost conviction for most people
I’m 22 with no degree. Two jobs I hate and no path in life. I’ve honestly thought about ending it and I still do. Gym only happy place for me but since I’m ugly it doesn’t do miracles. Kinda losing hope so any advice would be appreciated
Thats nothing to answer in a short comment like this. But let me tell you this: There is something out there for you and there is a place for you. How knows who or what you could be? You need to build yourself up, and you need to get self respect first. Thats huge. Right now you need to be egoistic man, it's you first. Concentrate on making yourself a better man, and that will make the world around you a better place. Now that is not easy, but it is sure better than giving up on life, and it will give you meaning. So rise above, get ready for war and seek greatness. The answers are out there..
Hey brother, I've been through a lot of the same stuff you talk about. You gotta keep pushing and trying because when you gain momentum it keeps going. When you do nothing and feel bad then you get more of that. I would have hated this advice a few years ago but I found that it is true. Just do something to further your life everyday no matter what it is.
TheCrazyCoutersHD if university is no longer an option for you, you could go to trade school and learn a trade. Trades are good in that they allow men to be creative and create their own path while still being in a masculine environment... and if you start your own business you can make a good amount of money, while being your own boss.
Getting 1% better every day will make you 37% better by the end of the year. & that’s more progress than you think. I recommend “Atomic Habits” by James Clear for anyone trying to actually IMPLEMENT change instead of talking about it. Change starts with your habits.
Hey, I'm 22 and retaking high school (I left at the last year), sincerely I'm having a bad time focusing on the subjects, (its always been like that, even when I was younger). The thing is that I study at home completely alone because I can't go to highschool bc of my age but, I can give exam for every subject, and the truth is that i'm feeling really anxious, I did great the first week but now i'm on the third one and I can't stay focus, today I left my phone shut down but every day turns harder and harder at maintaining myself calm and focus, I don't wanna lose another year, I do my meditation every day, sometimes 2 times a day but every time I open a book I don't wanna be sitting there, I went to a lot to get this opportunity again and I don't wanna lose it again...
Hey man, if i can help, pick up some books that inspire you and you are interested in ( fiction or not, what you prefer) so you will enjoy Reading them Studying on books will then be a Little easier everytime Also look up the "Thomas Frank " on TH-cam, he has a lot of advice for studying and a free ebook which is also really good
I always had a hard time focusing in school as well. Have you looked into nutrition? I've heard that the carnivore diet is known for helping people with anxiety and lack focus
@@LoLgAmEsViNz i'm currently reading a book about bioneuroemocion but it's no easy to read, maybe I should try a lighter subject? Also, I'll check out that check that channel, ty.
@@chriswanderer138 No, I've always wanted to go to a nutritionist bc I know nothing about it but the truth is that I'm broke right now, I moved with my dad again and I just move to Mexico (lived en 3 other countrys the last 5 years) and we are waiting for our permission to work in here. Maybe check about nutrition on the Internet? Idk
It's not related, but I would like to know if anyone has the same problem. I'm a generous guy and I usually let my friends copy the homework if they need to, it doesn't bother me, but when I ask them for a favor in return to that it seems like it's a joke to them and I get angry, a lot. I don't know if I should impose myself or just don't give a fuck anymore about them...
Sometimes I ask myself: “What would Elisha do?” #monkmode

Mushrooms are a way like any other trying experience to break you down, just like getting your ass handed to you in the cage. When the ego is temporarily destroyed there are two choices: feeling empty and descending into the dark catacombs of the anti-man or to understand this fragility and build the self back up with a solid foundation. Both are powerful but only one holds the Light.
Ancient stoicism was more about learning to let go of the things that we have no control over and capitalize on the aspects we do have control over. If any of ya want more info on stoicism I highly recommend the podcast stoicism on fire.
"If you don't quit - if you refuse to quit - you will not fail."
The ego is something to understand, not erase
There should be a Ministry of Masculinity and you should be the Minister....... thank you for everything Man
I just took lunch to listen to this haha
"become worthy of suffering" Victor E. Frankl
Thank you
You became secrete.
A true heroism symbol.
Have you tried the mushroom? I haven’t, yet I feel compelled to somehow. Experience it first before labelling it ‘soft’ in your mind. Oh and check out the old film “once we’re warriors”. Peace
That living at home part really got to me! I’m 18 years old living at home and i just really wish my parents treated me like an adult all the time and not only when necessary. I’m not gonna say i help out all the time but i do try to give money for food, gas, my bills and what not. My parents are looking to get this $4k trailer home and guess who’s paying for it? I am ofc and that’s what i mean by me wishing they treated me like an adult 24/7. When i want to go out or when i wanted to buy a car they treat me like some child but when it’s time to help out they look up to me help out with all their money problems. I’m not saying i want them to pay me back, it makes me glad that they can rely on me now for money issues but all i want is for them to actually treat me like an adult!
Word!
Weed made me an asshole that didnt care about anything. Mushrooms, lsd and dmt made me strive for greatness and fix my life up. I was a beta and psychedelics woke me up from the matrix.
What you exactly see when you consume this?
You see through your own bullshit with psychedelics.
Was your dmt scary? I have some at my house and I want to take it but it also scares me too and I dont know when or if I should take it
@@xchino0427 Dont take it if you're scared. Might sound dumb but the DMT will tell you when to take it
@@Coorniable yeah that sounds pretty stupid hahaha but yeah alot of people say the same thing
My dad also broke his leg... I can relate brother🙏🏽
Elisha is right about reading stories about heroes for inspiration. Watch Troy and watch closely Achilles. The movie Gladiator. Find Indpiration in these men because they are the ideal character of what a stoic hero is. A person who constantly reaches and falls, reaches and falls until he has reached farther than anybody else. I always remember Alexander the great for whom I so dearly look highly upon for inspiration. The quotes states something like "Even Alexander's failures toppled over other men's greatest achievements". Elisha was right about what Marcus Aurelius said that our we have no power over the universe except for our own will and mind. Alexander believed he was a God and he bent the universe using his own will and achieved eternal immortality. Think about that deeply guys and look for inspiration in your everyday life. When I struggle hard in boxing training I think about the Spartans or when Julius Caesar almost being overrun by barbarians for inspiration to push through the workout. After that I feel glory and magnanimity that cannot be explained in words. It makes every other problem in my life seem like nothing, the temptation of fapping is simply not there because the joy of life overpowers it. Romance with my fair maiden is like a fairytale between us and its goddamn amazing. Problems seem like dirt under my fingernails, everybody at work at my restaurant is complaining while I am having the time of my life and a big grin on my face, every customer at the restaurant is happy with my hospitality and I find so much joy in that. Keep up the fight guys. Practice to be a monk everyday and heed Elisha's words. We are blessed to have the internet and like the God Hermes Elisha sends his messages to us. He changed my life so much and I am so ever grateful Brother Elisha. No retreat, no surrender.
No Fap/ PMO + Boxing + Cold showers + Intermittent Fasting + Reading/Drawing/Piano + Work/School = You will feel like a DemiGod
Spontaneous Human Combustion awesome bro
Dam that's pretty dope bro what age did you start boxing
18 Im 20 now, I was listening to Elisha Since
I work 2 jobs as a waiter at a Japanese Restaurant and an Clerk for a Law firm, just mailing stuff usually. Im taking Automotive technology classes at a community college which I really encourage you guys to try, It was cheap for me to learn so much too.
No Fap and Semen Retention will make everything more meaningful in life and make you fight harder. Garlic everyday and a tablet of zinc to you build testosterone. Beware of Temptation guys in every form, suffer and endure life, stop failing habits and promises like no fap or too much videogames. When your retreat to those habits you retreat from yourself and from the fight. Leonidas said "no retreat, no surrender". Do this and I promise you, you will live a life of divinity and purpose and a fire in your belly. Hard times are ahead of us brothers, Like the thousands of Persians that descended upon the Spartans. The future will also descend upon us and we must be ready for the fight.
My take on mushrooms are that they are a tool that, if used for betterment, a superior way to become more masculine both in overall personality and physical strength. It won't lay it all down for you, but it will certainly reveal dozens of opportunities and challenges, by highlighting them while giving you a childlike curiousness and excitement, only few has experienced as adults.
With the newly created pathways, a newer/higher level of understanding will emerge, reducing anxiety and depression by a substantial margin; which also means that your addiction behavior will change, making way for loosing it, by decreasing withdrawal effects.
Read, train, fast, meditate, be chaste, pray, skip internet, get sun, shower cold and know the history of your volk. This will take you a long way.
If anything mushrooms boost my conviction, your ego wants to protect you and will tell yourself lies, when you take mushrooms and dissolve the ego you become radically honest with yourself which is what boost conviction for most people
They’re tryna beta us up so we react - so we alpha up
man, you're the older brother to all of us.
Always remember, you can only take the step you are taking
I’m 22 with no degree. Two jobs I hate and no path in life. I’ve honestly thought about ending it and I still do. Gym only happy place for me but since I’m ugly it doesn’t do miracles. Kinda losing hope so any advice would be appreciated
TheCrazyCoutersHD go back to school and get an engineering degree
Thats nothing to answer in a short comment like this. But let me tell you this: There is something out there for you and there is a place for you. How knows who or what you could be? You need to build yourself up, and you need to get self respect first. Thats huge. Right now you need to be egoistic man, it's you first. Concentrate on making yourself a better man, and that will make the world around you a better place. Now that is not easy, but it is sure better than giving up on life, and it will give you meaning. So rise above, get ready for war and seek greatness. The answers are out there..
Hey brother, I've been through a lot of the same stuff you talk about. You gotta keep pushing and trying because when you gain momentum it keeps going. When you do nothing and feel bad then you get more of that. I would have hated this advice a few years ago but I found that it is true. Just do something to further your life everyday no matter what it is.
TheCrazyCoutersHD if university is no longer an option for you, you could go to trade school and learn a trade. Trades are good in that they allow men to be creative and create their own path while still being in a masculine environment... and if you start your own business you can make a good amount of money, while being your own boss.
@@TheRollmopsi love that response dude 💪
I wish I could move out. Guess it's time to stop "wishing".
Getting 1% better every day will make you 37% better by the end of the year. & that’s more progress than you think.
I recommend “Atomic Habits” by James Clear for anyone trying to actually IMPLEMENT change instead of talking about it. Change starts with your habits.
Hey, I'm 22 and retaking high school (I left at the last year), sincerely I'm having a bad time focusing on the subjects, (its always been like that, even when I was younger). The thing is that I study at home completely alone because I can't go to highschool bc of my age but, I can give exam for every subject, and the truth is that i'm feeling really anxious, I did great the first week but now i'm on the third one and I can't stay focus, today I left my phone shut down but every day turns harder and harder at maintaining myself calm and focus, I don't wanna lose another year, I do my meditation every day, sometimes 2 times a day but every time I open a book I don't wanna be sitting there, I went to a lot to get this opportunity again and I don't wanna lose it again...
Hey man, if i can help, pick up some books that inspire you and you are interested in ( fiction or not, what you prefer) so you will enjoy Reading them
Studying on books will then be a Little easier everytime
Also look up the "Thomas Frank " on TH-cam, he has a lot of advice for studying and a free ebook which is also really good
I always had a hard time focusing in school as well.
Have you looked into nutrition? I've heard that the carnivore diet is known for helping people with anxiety and lack focus
@@LoLgAmEsViNz i'm currently reading a book about bioneuroemocion but it's no easy to read, maybe I should try a lighter subject?
Also, I'll check out that check that channel, ty.
@@chriswanderer138 No, I've always wanted to go to a nutritionist bc I know nothing about it but the truth is that I'm broke right now, I moved with my dad again and I just move to Mexico (lived en 3 other countrys the last 5 years) and we are waiting for our permission to work in here. Maybe check about nutrition on the Internet? Idk
Ride the tiger or fall and get mangled by it.
Anyone else just wanna fight other people. Not because you hate people but because of the thrill of the fight
Yup. Take up boxing or mma. Don't get in a street fight you might get a glock pulled on you.
It's not related, but I would like to know if anyone has the same problem. I'm a generous guy and I usually let my friends copy the homework if they need to, it doesn't bother me, but when I ask them for a favor in return to that it seems like it's a joke to them and I get angry, a lot. I don't know if I should impose myself or just don't give a fuck anymore about them...
Elisha bro, please start a podcast
Two more fucking years of university and i cant wait to move out of my parents house
