This is the story of how I nearly lost everything to activist Swedish Social Services. In 2017, my family and I were living in Sweden. I had lived there before as a single man. We thought it was the safe, stable, open society everyone in the West keeps praising. What happened instead nearly destroyed us. I am a former Marine with a couple combat deployments to Afghanistan (this detail matters) and was part of Marine Corps Forces European Command in Germany. I worked for Amazon Web Services with a Nordic focus, staged in Stockholm I managed teams across Sweden, Denmark, Norway, and Finland. We lived in the countryside, paid taxes, followed every rule. We even insisted on speaking the local language. We tried to be the ideal expat family.

A man becomes trustworthy when his strength is no longer at the mercy of his mood.

A person can be wounded, sincere, and wrong at the same time. Any psychology unable to hold all three will eventually become propaganda.

A couples intensive is for people who are prepared to work—not merely prove that their spouse is the problem. One or two focused days. No theatrical neutrality. No spending six months circling the same fight. Careerflex.net or DM INTENSIVE.

Spent since Friday getting staged, tracking, and stalking elk and deer. But a group of trashy urban monkeys ruined the deep forest experience, even 2 hours from any city over the size of a thousand people. They blasted around in their UTVs, blared their ghetto urban trash monkey music, disrupting the elk and deer populations. Any conservative knows that populations are incredibly sensitive to human noise pollution. Conservatives are far more compassionate about it. It's why I keep a firearm with a high capacity drum on hand, because these days even miles from the dystopian cities, you may run into urban rot.

If you've ever been in leadership roles in either warehouse logistics, you know how true this is. Rotememorycels need something to keep their simple minds occupied like packaging, nursing, or community organization. But that doesn't mean you have to endure them, anon. Nor do you have to take their bog peasant views seriously.

Some companies have a personnel problem. Others have designed a system that predictably turns decent employees into territorial, evasive, political people. Replacing the employees without changing the structure merely changes the cast.

Your nervous system is not a constitutional monarch. It gets a voice. It does not get final authority.

The family is the first institution a child studies. Before he understands law, religion, or politics, he learns whether power protects, bargains, disappears, or explodes.

There is a difference between being understood and being excused. Good therapy knows when you need each—and when the second would betray the first.

When I advise founders, I am rarely trying to make them less intense. Intensity built the company. The work is giving that intensity structure so the organization can harness it without being repeatedly burned by it.

Naming a pattern is useful. Naming it so often that you no longer feel responsible for changing it is another form of captivity.

If you go to a retreat and they teach you to hate your people under the influence of drugs, you are the mark.

The point of therapy is not to make every emotion authoritative. It is to help you hear the signal without surrendering command.

First day of rifle season starts tomorrow. Today we sighted in our rifles. While I was zeroing in my son's Romanian PSL-54, a mule deer stepped within 15 ft of my target and just stood there. I have declared a rule that we do not shoot deer that are with an line of sight of the house because we want them to hang around. They are walking food storage so far as that goes. My sons challenged me that I should shoot that deer because it's literally right there. But I did not. A man's honor is his power. See, a lower intelligence or novice moral thinker--- such as any number of rotememorycel DMV workers or nurses--- May believe that something becomes true simply because you want it to be. Had I taken the shot, my sons would have been able to cite that transgression of my law against me for years and decades, undermining my influence in their lives. Honor, courage, and commitment, anon. Your honor is your power.

The founder’s personal psychology eventually becomes organizational architecture. His avoidance becomes a missing policy. His anxiety becomes another meeting. His distrust becomes an approval process. His impulsiveness becomes everyone else’s emergency.

As The People's Therapist , I must never allow you to be deceived. Every time I get a payout on X's original creator program, I aim to reveal what the payout was as well as the impressions that drove it. That way you can determine if it's worth your time to slowly build a following, as my suspicion is although it may start small in the minimum $30 range, it could grow to many thousands of dollars. The arch enemy works hard to make it so you can't knowo the reality behind anything. But his strategy falls apart at the slightest revelation of true things. One of the best acts a man can do for other men in this age of artificial and non-propagating times is to reveal the truth of things.
