Religion is the opiate of the masses.

I have my own saying: Pussy is the opiate of the betas.

Everyone basically understands what Marx meant. In a harsh slave-like capitalist system where people are worked to death, religion was a way to alleviate and soothe away the hardships and cold reality of the meaninglessness of people's lives in hopes of a better future, or afterlife. During America's Industrial Revolution, it was normal for people to work 12 hour shifts everday six days a week totalling 72 hours total per week with only Sunday off.

Back in my most beta days, whenever something or a problem came up, I grin and beared it. Whenever a research paper needed to be typed, I enthusiastically spent hours perfecting it. I stayed up all night. Went the extra mile. Did all extra credit opportunities. I did all these things, yes, because I enjoyed them and prided myself on being a bookworm, but on an even deeper subconscious level, I did them because I thought they would get me pussy.

The price of all my success came at the cost of my social skills and being pretty much clueless as to how the world works.

Sure, I don't do these things out of pussy anymore; I do them for myself and for self-improvement. I don't regret taking the red pill, but I can't help feeling that I've lost something. I've never had this problem before. I'm not depressed, but I feel like I've lost the drive to do most the things I did before. I was always motivated, inspired, and excited, and, no matter how boring, complex, difficult, or life-sucking the subject was, I somehow always managed to end up liking the course. I even almost got a perfect score on the standardized American Chemical Society (ACS) national exam. The reason was because I thought that these things were directly related to pussy.

Pussy motivates men to do great things. Knowing that doing X will not directly yield pussy has made me lose my motivation.

After hours of mind-numbing study sessions, I would reward myself with my favorite anime shows (hence the avatar). It was like a drug that let me escape the pain at having sacrificed so much. Incentives drive behavior. I was like a donkey, and anime was like the carrot on the stick in front of me. I guess part of what attracted me to anime was the idealized version I still had in my head about women. They were soft, feminine, gentle, kind-hearted, and nurturing (even then I noticed that few American girls were like this). I kept saying to myself, "one day years from now after all your hard work, a woman out there in the world will find you and she'll love you for who you are despite your irks and you'll live happily ever after in marital bliss."

How do you guys go about finding the motivation to go through the drudgery of everyday life? I don't speak for all men, but I'm sure that plenty of men go through their day with the thought of pussy as the end result. Did any of you guys have this fallout when you took the red pill?

Sure. I used to believe that a career in Law would be me success, women, and happiness, but once realizing it was all a scam I left and never looked back.

School is a waste of almost everyone's life. Probably less than 5% of people who get a degree needed it.

Nowadays, my life isn't drudgery. I've built myself my own lifestyle that requires minimum effort to sustain, allows me to game women freely, and pursue other projects on the side. I've given myself the TIME to do whatever the fuck I want, and I believe it will payoff huge in the long run.

Can you expand on that? What kind of lifestyle do you have, and what kinds of things you do?

@blurb
You might need a bigger "drug" to chase after now so I suggest you try POWER. You want to have power over ANYTHING (money, bitches, your friends) for the simple reason that you'll have a better life and will probably be happier more often than not.
This forum is mostly about having power over women while you travel to their countries. That is a specific type of power I'm interested in because I love to travel as is so why not learn it while I'm at it? Certainly, some guys here enjoy the power that comes with learning the methods to make good money and have free time to do their own traveling.
The ultimate power would be for me to work those 4 hours/week many talk about here, travel a lot, do some nice shit for people who have less than me, and of course have quality women everywhere I go. Kids are easy to make so while that's a biological desire I have I don't consider it part of power since anything that leads you to having power will require some hard/smart work (kids are just a sperm away).
Btw, I'm also aiming for the type of "pimp" like power where I have a couple of bitches paying some of my bills, airfares, and hotels. I don't think I want the hooker type again, but a nice "desperate" MILF like PC gets would do wonders for my budget.

Blurb,

I read your whole post and quoted only parts.

I hear you. Pussy, the notion that one special girl will appear, love you for who you are etc., is what a lot of blue-pill takers almost expect to happen. Their expectations come from believing all the BS they were told from the time they were born.

I think taking the proverbial red pill and feeling that you lost something is common. Shit, you haven't just "lost something," you've lost everything that you ever believed about the opposite sex, perhaps society in general.

You and I come from different backgrounds but I can relate to what you're going through here. Once the red pill is fully ingested, shit starts to get weird and you may view things that once seemed very important as complete nonsense.

My goal is to earn money off my words and escape my declining nation. I'm still here and making the most of it by saving cash, writing in the evenings (or early mornings), and gaming.

In my opinion, the motivation you desire comes from a vision. You visualize what you want - set a goal with no timetable - and stay focused on the process of making that vision a reality.

There is more than enough drudgery to go around in the US. It's a unique form of drudgery too because it's shrouded in comfort and convenience. Our style of drudgery is more of a mindfuck than anything.

The one side-effect of this red pill is that once you've taken it, once you've made that choice, you'll always be swimming against the social tide. It's hard sometimes. I feel you, but you keep going with determination and you'll be free.

It's not easy, as you and most others here know, but start with visualizing what you want. Then set a goal and work on the process. If the process starts to drag on you use that goal, that vision, as motivation. If the vision isn't motivating you then maybe you need a different vision, a different goal.

Maybe this sounds like a bunch of motivational BS, but I know about this drudgery and I know what keeps me going...

Hope it helps and good luck.

A lot of people are motivated by money, did you not do all those boring things because you thought money was at the end of them? Or at least, that they would help you earn money, which in turn would get you girls?

Also, maybe you are doing the wrong things. If you are bored and needed pussy as a motivation to do all those boring things, maybe you need to do something else that you can enjoy for its own sake. Some people like chemistry and boring academic subject matter.

If you like anime so much, why not get involved with the studios and companies that produce it? Learn some Japanese, start showing rare and strange anime at a local movie theater, open a store with anime collectibles and posters. Go after what you like. This is a whole other red pill. You know that girls are not like they told you growing up, and you have started acting accordingly. But do you believe that you need a good respectable job to hold your head up? Is the drudgery you are performing right now for someone else, like maybe your parents to keep them off your back?

You gotta think, and think hard, what makes you happy? Why do you get out of bed in the morning? Start arranging for your life to move in that direction.

Same thing happened to me man. Its a mindfuck and it did screw with me.
I feel better now, but I just wish the mindfuck happened a bit earlier so I wouldn't have been so strongly affected by it.

Right now I'm just motivated to live an awesome lifestyle where I travel and see the world while banging girls. Its gotten me back on track in terms of motivating me to work hard and achieve my financial and lifestyle goals. Pussy is still a goal but now I see it as part of a greater lifestyle and general self improvement.

Hey Blurb,

It can be rough to go against what society deems normal.

For me, I did several things to insure I would accomplish my particular lifestyle choice.

I burned almost all bridges. For example: I made a lot of money as an IT consultant. I wasn't really happy with that line of work because I ended up working in places I didn't want to live. So I set out to create a location independent lifestyle. I stopped accepting contract jobs and concentrated on what would get me there. After some time out of the contract biz, my skill set wasn't updated and thus I would not be able to go back. I had no choice but to continue down my chosen path.

I also moved overseas to a place where I could only make money using the internet. Man, what a trip! You would be surprised at how fast you learn stuff when your ass is on the line.

I don't hang around negative people. I have no problem cutting someone out of my life if they bash me for my choices. Luckily, I haven't had to do much of that.

Hang around like minded people: You should be involved with people who want the same thing. You end up motivating each other and possibly creating a mastermind. This forum is like a mastermind in which people help each other to get better with women.

Have a plan. Break your goals down into easy to do tasks. What do you need to do each day to achieve what you want in a year. Yes, it can be a lot of work but it is something that helps me tackle large goals and projects. I just break them down to something more manageable.

Become obsessed! I literally became obsessed with what I was doing. Talk about motivation. The obsession doesn't have to last forever. I normally obsess until I get to my goal and then I will start looking at something else.

I actually think it's easier to be rebellious when you know how to play the game properly. None of the successful guys on this forum would have gotten where they are if they had just gotten a job with some big company and spent all their free time watching TV like most Americans do. Being "normal" in that sense is a recipe for disaster because your life is going to be unintersting and boring.

Ever see the dude out with his wife and kids getting bossed around and handing over all over his money? Don't be that guy.

After I realized all of the game stuff from sites like Roosh and Roissy a couple years back, I stopped giving a shit about my grades. All those hours studying and worrying about graduating with a certain GPA meant shit in the long run. Realize that taking that stuff too seriously for years on end really does tax you personally. When I finally finished with all the school shit I was totally burned out and felt unmotivated for months. We're not machines that can just process information all day like a computer and trying to live like that is dysfunctional. It pisses me off so much that American males are conditioned to just study and work all the time, but by "being good" and doing so you actually get pushed further away from getting near a pussy.

If your finances allow for it, I would try to take vacation and lay out on the beach or in the wilderness for a week or something, that seems to help for me. Get out of these artificial environments for a bit.
