In just one sentence I’m starting this business to provide value based on the valuable experiences I had overcoming my obstacles.
My background:
At the time of writing this I’m 24 years old and I’m currently studying engineering at university.
I’ve been thinking about starting some kind of self improvement online business since around 2021 and finally I did it.
My dark period:
Between the ages of around 18 to 21 I had a lot of serious difficulties, such as:
I had extreme anxiety. When doing any kind of academic tests I felt physical pain and had an really negative perspective of how things would play out. Before a test I was pretty much always thinking that I was going to fail it. On top of that, in social situations, I was not comfortable at all and avoid those as much as possible. Looking at the people around me I felt that I shouldn’t be there.
I suffered from clinical diagnosed depression: I felt sleepy all the time, very low energy, lack of motivation, I felt my situation was hopeless.
I had severe self esteem issues: I didn’t think I was worth anything and that I didn’t deserve good things to happen to me.
I was obese: before 18 I was in good shape but around the time I went to university I quickly started to gain a lot of weight and reached around 115Kg or 253lb at the peak of it. I remember going up a few floors of stairs and being out of breath.
And more…
My transformation:
I remember the exact moment things begun to change: I had been on youtube following a guy talking about the “black pill” meaning some concepts as: if you are not good looking enough girls will not want to be with you and other things.
Then he talked about the “redpill”. It was my first time hearing that outside of the movie Matrix.
I searched for “red pill” on YouTube and the first guy that showed up was Richard Cooper AKA Entrepreneurs in cars. At his YouTube channel he talked about masculinity, male/female dynamics, making money, the dangers of divorce, about being more in charge and so on. It was a very different perspective than what I was used to.
Immersing myself in those topics I then started to read the book “The Rational Male” by Rollo Tomassi and my life changed because of it.
There were tons of examples online of guys that turned their life around simply by being exposed to those concepts of masculinity and the The Rational Male was like consuming the “red pill” for me, it was like seeing a truth that was going to help me for the rest of my life and I was grateful for having found it.
Since then I’ve read a lot more self improvement books, directly related to masculinity or not, and implemented a lot of changes in my personal life.
I was the most unhappy person that I personally knew. Today it’s the opposite, I am the most happy person that I personally know.
Because of that transformation I know I can also help guys to change their lives for the better, even if their starting position is as bad as mine was.
Conclusion:
I’m starting this business to share the lessons I’ve learned along the way and that can benefit guys.
I’m providing the content I wish I had at that time in my life.
