Is it Epidemic or Scamdemic The 2020 Debate
Something we need to start to understand is the Spartan Mentallity~ I do not say this half assing it. Look what is happening to men in these times, yes I mean a good portion of the grown men still living at home with mommy and daddy. How in general men are being raised (again not all but we are speaking the majority).
I personally feel it will be the empowered women who take us to the next level, and again I use the word EMPOWERED very very highly!

How to be the Best You Sparta 2020
Do you remember the movie 300? Sparta and the Spartans, now more than ever we need this type of mindset, this type of dedication, this type of conviction in ourselves.
If we each did our best to be our best, I personally feel we would each feel and create a sense of empowerment like never before. We are each so use to having someone else make decisions for us, while following the rules, which has lead us all astray.

How To Overcome The Negative Influence of Others
Why Do we let others Dim our Light? Why do we let others opinions influence who we are and how we act and interact with others? Why do we let society police our behaviours and actions?

Yes, I know it was just a movie, however there is a small factor of truth from that movie, the fact that all civilization, all ancient cultures had a group of men a group of warriors who rose up and protected the tribe.

I am super tired of all the weekend warriors out there who take a course (which is amazing by the way, love the fact we are all trying to better ourselves) but so so so so many of the students and practitioners I run into seem to think that there is this elaborate spiritual hierarchy that only a few people get to experience.
