How To Put Yourself In A Position Of Power?

Let’s break it down.

A strong position:

Why is this powerful?

“It isn’t the strongest or most intelligent that survives, but the most adaptable.”

You see, life is a war of attrition.

A powerful position is able to withstand “shocks” and changes no matter what happens.

Those who win fast and fall off faster don’t have the right foundation to handle success.

(They built their castle on quicksand).

Failures, L’s, etc are set into motion if your positioning strategy is fucked.

When they play out years later, MF’s are caught lacking “out of nowhere” without understanding the root causes.

The right foundation gives you max options that aren’t in danger of being lost.

When you have max options, you have power.

And how do you get there?

A: Focus on the things that add value no matter what.

AKA: “Play the long game”.

You might not know exactly what the future will look like, but you know for 100% certain that these things will be valuable.

When these blocks are in place, they give you max position to make the best choices.

(Regardless of how your tastes may change).

They make you more capable and remove dependence + desperation.

When you have high social skills, you can make quality friends / connections easy and never have to tolerate BS.
When you make your own money in your sleep, you don’t have to be needy for it.
When your body is strong and healthy, your experience is enhanced.
When you have a strong network, you have infinite deal flow.

This allows you to kick back and pass on mediocre options while filtering for the best.

It’s literally impossible to lose with this strategy.
