The people that you tried so hard to impress and made them a priority, were are they now? They are all gone. In today's selfish world, you cannot put others above you. Whether it's friends, acquaintances or anything, you have to keep them beneath you. Otherwise, you will be left behind.
Who always wins in the end? It's always the jerk, who puts themselves above others. The so called "good" and people pleasers, who always put others above them for the validation of others, what happens with them? They are left behind, and they keep wondering why their "niceness" is not working for them. Whatever it is in life, we must remember, nobody is helping you. Like seriously think about it. Why would they? Your benefit is their loss, because they will have more competition. And people are easily jealous and despise you, with a facade of this fake smile they have infront of you.
The Greatest Power in this life, is Mastering the psychology of people, and using it on them, in the most clever way possible, and in such a way, which it only benefits you. Which we all have that here. I'm glad I got to experience many things, which the average person cannot. My experiences of yesterday made Me what I'm today. And I'll always use the Laws of Power only for My benefit. That's it.
You must remember, society or anyone, they do not gaf about you. In the end, YOU have to make something of this life, and get ahead in anyway possible you can. Because in the end, it's just you. Since the beginning of time, it has only been survival of the fittest, and never survival of the unfittest. Every red pilled person must Master machiavellianism. Regarding how to act, what to say in each and every situation he is confronted and use it for his own benefit in a very clever and intellectual way.
Always put yourself above others. People only use you, and throw you out. The only people that may truly love you unconditionally is your parents. So always respect and value them. When you learn to not gaf anymore, and only focus on your own success in whatever it maybe, that is the greatest mindset any person can have. People spend their whole life in thinking what he/she/society will think about me and guess what? They are left nowhere. They neither achieve their goals, because they put others above them, and they lose all the respect people had for them. Why? Because they keep on giving and giving and then they are taken for granted. Once your that vulnerable, your destiny is only to get used and thrown out. You must never be too agreeable, rather stick to your principles and values. Always.
You must remember that in the end, whether it's the government and even your homies, or anyone in general they don't care about your achievements or success. Neither anyone is helping you get there. 1 day they can be your friend, the next day they can be your enemy. Don't be so emotionally attached to people bc anyone can change at any moment. You come alone in this life, and you die alone. So, dgaf about others and what they think about you, rather do what YOU have to do. In the end, nobody is helping you. You have to help yourself.
