/SIG/ - SELF IMPROVEMENT GENERAL

Doing it because I'm feeling like you guys are getting black-pilled and (more) insane with the absolute state of Earth.

Remember, put DUTY ABOVE FEELINGS!

(((Mods))) will probably shut it down, but I'm counting on you, anons, to put /SIG/ threads back up every single time.

It’s time to clean your house. What have you done today to improve your mental/physical/spiritual wellbeing user?

Modern society is to blame for there being so many people who don't deserve to live. Most people in the West used to harden as they grow on their own, like anywhere else. Now without effort you can remain indefinitely infantile due to our decadence. There were always outliers that became like this throughout history, but now the general masses have succumbed to this condition. There is no longer a rite of passage into adulthood, you can be sheltered and live comfortably. This is de-evolution. Everyone has a dandy-ol time being a degenerate well into their 50s. Constant entertainment, pre-cooked meals and pornography has robbed us of our man-hood.

Realize that to live is to struggle. Really internalize this truth in your being and actions and when possible spread it to others that you care about. In the end the Natural Order will always prevail. Nature is inherently fascist. The modern world is a world that goes completely against nature and the results are telling. It's tearing itself apart. Nevertheless you as an individual can always choose to go against the flow and struggle and persevere while the rest of society rots and withers away. It's not an easy path, but you go on because you know that you are in the right and that in the end you will be vindicated.

The modern world is so self-destructive half the battle is just weathering the storm until the whole edifice has degenerated so much that we can rise and deal the final blow. Live to live your life correctly and that will bring happiness to yourself and those around you.

Stop drinking ALL soda/artificial juices and stop eating junkfood. Stop buying super-market meals and try to grow your own vegetables that aren't infected with pesticides and plastics. Healthy and economic, aswell as peaceful. Till the soil like your great grandfather did. Try to drink mostly water or coffee/tea with little to no sugar added. Purchase meat and produce from local producers that you know personally. A big reason why western men’s sperm count has gotten lower is because we do less outdoor jobs like we used to 50 years ago, which means less sun exposure and less Vitamin D production.

Thus we should grow our own food, get outside more, and not rely on commercial food producers. Over specialization creates a society without purpose for many and too much interdependence. Cities are inherently self-destructive because they are unnatural. Multiple cities reaching more than hundreds of thousands in population did not exist prior to the mid-19th century. The countryside would remain unaffected in the long run if a future collapse occurs. 99% of our history has not been like this with populations concentrated like ants and living like parasites. It’s a very volatile mix and you do not want to be a part of it. There’s a reason liberals are concentrated in these shitholes.

While you don't have to go 110% /innawoods/ right now, it's always good to be in a state of relative independence, and in a small closely knit community. It is such values and societal composition that will survive a collapse and reclaim what is left once the dust has settled. Hopefully the kikes will be gone with it, their degenerate little empire burned to ashes.

Remember, you don't need all the latest work-out equipment, supplements or drugs to get a naturally fit look. All you need is natural movement and you'll achieve the body you're MEANT to have as the Homo-Sapien male. You have a tiled floor? Jump from one end to the other. A fence outside? Climb over. You have a lot of work on your computer? Put it on a shelf so you have to stand and thus better your posture.

Also, set goals for yourself. See if you can lift sandbags that weigh up to 80kgs eventually. Carry it on your shoulders, throw it as far as you can, attempt to eventually lift it with nothing but a single grip. Get used to being able to punch something aswell. Do NOT be a limp wristed fageutte who would cry if he gets hit. Be able to defend yourself.

This has nothing to do with politics. Fuck off.

Also anons, move out of the cities and learn a trade. Find a nice girl in church, start a family.

While I do use my computer like now, I try not to make it part of who I am am. We are constantly stimulated by technology. This is unnatural since we used to be able to just sit for hours and reflect, now we get anxious if there is no internet connection. To be able to relax and just think is a form of "meditation" I suppose, but it’s nice to do it. I have a garden I go sit in during the late afternoon and just gaze out on the nearby mountains. I don't think about anything in particular, I let my mind wander. Really healthy and fulfilling.

The vast majority of things that modern society has brought us have severe consequences. The only "good" things it has brought are directly or indirectly related with making life painstakingly easy and almost meaningless or just increasing world population to insane levels. The kikes would have us be dependent on them soon; once post-industrial society hits and we become unproductive slaves to the state for our monthly food ration.

>”Lmao nothing matters, I just want to enjoy pleasures in life, no higher being exists, no greater purpose in life exists”

To atheists/nihilists lurking the thread:

Your consciousness is the only thing verifiable in the entirety of Existence, since a consciousness not recognizing itself is a paradox. It's Descartes' cogito, and it's the basis for absolutely everything, and I say EVERYTHING, philosophical and scientific that can follow.

Then we have Parmenide's Existential paradox. If a thing ''is'', it cannot ''not'' be, for then we'd have no basis whatsoever to even contemplate it. Furthermore, saying that something came out from nothing and will go back to nothing is equally illogical, since nothing is logically impossible. So we have to assume that everything always was, and always will be, albeit not in the same form.

So what happens then? What happens is that your consciousness, your capacity to synthesize and accumulate information, or what is commonly known as the soul, whether it was inside your body or completely separate (the question is utterly irrelevant here) always was, and always will be, logically, which leads us to believe that there was a Before as well as there will be an after for every verified consciousness (i.e. you as a the observer and synthesizer of this text), there is an afterlife, and there was a before-life.

Attached: 1517702067073.jpg (500x695, 29K)

The question remains, however, as to what that afterlife is. Equally interesting is the question of where consciousness comes from. And this is where philosophy lets religion take the torch.

I'm really getting bored of those pseudo-sophisticate ultra-materialists that seem to be everywhere these days. It seems funny to me how so many smart people insist that their capacity for logic and reason can somehow reach outside the bounds of our existence, explain it in a meaningful way, even though the very terms and concepts they use to, oh so authoritatively, state "idiot, when you're dead you're dead, see?!" have been invented in minds very much created by the very phenomena they so glibly dismiss as irrelevant. "Consciousness? Pff, a hallucination of the brain! Qualia? Ephemera! There's meat and dirt, and that's IT, and you're a fool, and probably some sort of weirdo, if you think otherwise."

The vehemence with which many of those people defend the idea that they're ultimately nothing, completely irrelevant and futile, makes me think that there's more to it than just pure calculation and cold logic on their part, as most of them claim. People don't get so worked up over things just because they think they're true. Most aren't nearly that noble. They have some sort of emotional stake in the game.

/sig/ draws from ancient Hellenic civic virtue, early Americanism, National Socialism, and I'm sure a myriad of other political ideologies. Not only are strong bodies needed for warfare and industry, but mental health deteriorates with physical health, as observed by millennia of physicians from prehistoric Ayurvedic tradition to Hippocrates in the 5th century BC to modern researchers like Dr. John Ratey. Physical weakness leads to mental and spiritual weakness and the decay of peoples and their societies.

Strengthen your body to strengthen your mind. Don't let sloth distort the lens through which you view the world. Open your eyes and see through the lies. Build a better body politic.

>Long lasting success in any human endeavor is never the result of blind luck. The achievement of a clearly defined goal, whether it be the act of walking from point "X" to point "Y", the building of a house, or the organization of a business, is always the product of three things:
>>The intellectual ability to perceive the problem involved, the opposition which must be expected, and the best way to overcome that opposition to reach the goal.
>>The will and determination to do whatever may be necessary to reach the desired goal, regardless of opposition.
>>The physical means, strength, and courage to enforce and carry out the plan or fight conceived by the mind and determined by the will.
>If any of these three elements be lacking on one's purpose, failure is the inevitable, predictable result.

>On the other hand, civilizations, for all their intellectual achievements and sciences, perish most often because of failure of the will, the diminishing of the savage and ruthless drive for survival and dominance which originally created society. They become "humanitarian", selfish, and soft. They become physically weak and dependent on paid armies and police to do their fighting. The fighting spirit of honor and self-sacrifice and heroism of their ancestors gives way to a growing love of ease and luxury and cowardice masquerading as "humanitarianism".

I find a lot of the information here interesting so if anybody struggles with math people like Professor Leonard helped me a lot also for engineering courses there is Jeff Hanson.

For gardening videos I’d recommend Justin Rhodes(more permaculture and rural living) and MIgardener(for gardening techniques in depth knowledge) and they offer lots of insight into their respective fields.

For cooking there is foodwishes and honestly there’s lots of others but his videos are the best.

I don’t really watch political videos anymore but Styx is good for news and so is Rush Limbaugh if you can stomach him being a neocon.

I don’t know many fitness youtubers but reading the sticky on Jow Forums is essential also couch to 5k is god tier

The problem with Jow Forums is that it's ideology without action. The problem with /sig/ lately is it focuses almost entirely on the action (>>>/fit) without being explicit enough about the ideology and the nature of politics as a lifestyle.

>Western progressive weight training doesn't date back to Milo of Croton
>physical training and medical science haven't been progressing hand-in-hand since the Classical Era
I don't know why it's hard to believe that a culture that fetishized fitness would produce fit citizenry with greater success than cultures that didn't built a cult around it.

the greeks only kind of knew about progressive weight training and had crude dumbbells. The invention of the barbell revolutionized fitness to new highs.

You can be as dedicated to fitness as you want, but if you don't have a hard scientific approach to it, you can only get so far

>implying the athlete-philosophers who laid the foundation for the modern scientific method just mindlessly flopped their weights around
You're not wrong that we have much better physical training knowledge and methodology today than we did previously, but your argument seems to be on par with claiming that no one was studying astronomy until Hubble Space Telescope went operational.

My point is that the notion that somehow nazis had next level methodology towards physical fitness that made uberman is a silly notion. They distributed similar drugs that truckers use to stay awake and energetic.

It wasn't alien tech, but having the entire fighting-aged citizenry absorbed into a cult of physical fitness gave them an edge--it likely wasn't specific techniques so much as it was cultural propaganda enforcing a consistent and science-backed program. Kennedy tried to push something similar on our schools before his mind got blown.

If this is what you tell yourself then your mind will make it true. It doesn't have to be this way.

this is where you lose me. You don't need this philosophical mumbo jumbo about consciousness, afterlife and 'higher purpose' to realize the benefits of self improvement. Any bucko can clean their room and improve themselves here and now without this hidden proselytizing. Heck most Christians in the world hardly take any step toward their own betterment let alone attend church on a regular basis.

Your illogical contempt for people who hold certain views at odds with yours (and which certainly has no bearing on the science of self improvement) is why these threads die off quickly, its just christcuck gatekeeping.
