How do you value yourself?

Now you sound like BM saying "show me one post where I..."

I'd feel like I'm bragging. This is just an awkward question to answer. I know what I'm told is unique and special about me, being a nerd who works out obsessively. I could probably phrase it a more flattering way but you get the idea.

cool thread.....was thinking about something similar right as you created (my best friend called me out on a bunch of shit in my life the other day)

Eh for me...i'm proud of my unique mix/background. Not too many people can say they're japanese and cuban. I like to think i got the best of both worlds (cuban looks and penis lol, japanese brains). i used to hate it when i was younger, but as i got older i embraced it and it makes me different everywhere i go. The japanese mind gave me great business sense and i guess the cuban side made me a hustler/gave me the gift of gab.

The one thing i can say is that whatever i've given 100% of my attention to, whatever goal, i've always reached, no matter how unlikely. from my pro video game career (lol), to my social life, to my ebay business when i was 18, to my body, to my career (although that needs alot of work right now). I've also overcome alot of adversity and tend to make the best out of bad situations.

was very lucky to grow up with a family that was well off. was able to get a great education, allowed me to travel alot and see all sorts of different culture when i was younger and see most of the world by the time i was a teenager. i'll always have great connections, and opportunities...i just have to make the most of them.

I definetely need to improve myself alot more though...to full my potential.
Everyone that meets me says i have the potential to do anything i want in this world...but there's a few things holding me back.
my work ethic can be pretty weak sometimes, i really have to get in the zone and see results for me to keep going. I got "by" on talent and luck alone for years.
i have terrible habits and organization, and in the past few years i've sat around and contemplated too much instead of just "doing". i haven't been a doer as much as i should. i also tend to neglect my friends/become introverted during down periods of my life (like right now).
probably in the biggest slump of my life because of my failed business venture ,horrible breakup, and just bad location. hopefully that changes soon

HOLY SHIT!! You are Japanese and Cuban too??

BM, I disagree. Show me one post where I showed value in external factors. I never have, so clearly you are mistaken there.

Now, if you want to make a case for how I treat others here, I can't disagree. This is something I have worked on for a long time and have made immense strides with. It ain't over yet, Rome wasn't built in a day, ya know?

But I also don't put any value in how others perceive me. Put 100 people in a room and I will have 100 different reputations. This does not matter to me as I have no control over it.

Here on elite we show one face. It may be random or it may be calculated. All the posts of yours that I have seen talking about your sexual conquests of this random slut or that random ho... your hair being *on point*, this work related leg-up or that.... then you laugh as you spew some random hatred on women that point out some e-flaws....

Dude, I am so not your mother nor do I claim to be.

Shit, I fuck up left and right. I should like to think of us as peers of some sort.

I have seen you post up a lot of responsible wisdom to the board, stuff that shows you to be light year ahead of your peers.... then I see male dumbshit that drags you right back down.

Come on my brother, let us get real.

As I said, not trying to call you out or take cheap shots... I am so not casting any stones as my sin-cup runneth over.

Just sayin is all my e-brother.

If it's one thing buddhism taught me, it's that holding your value in anything external or transient is the incorrect path. Because it inevitably means that once that "thing" is gone/lost/taken away, your value is lost. This is essentially materialism. Jobs, family, friends, car, money, house..the list is endless.

I value myself for my soul and my mind. My constant desire to better myself and to seek the truth, no matter how painful, lonely, or difficult that journey may be.





Not sure where a big cock fits in there, though....

you can lose your mind just as easily as your material possessions. pretty much any form of acknowledging yourself will lead to anguish or fear of loss one day

I couldn't disagree more.
