Hello,

This week's edition will discuss controlling yourself, the biology of good and evil, and discipline.


** You Should Be A Monster.
------------------------------------------------------------

Everyone says, “Well, you should be harmless, virtuous, you shouldn't do anyone any harm, you should sheath your competitive instinct. You shouldn't try to win. You don't want to be too aggressive. You don't want to be too assertive.”

No. Wrong. You should be a monster, an absolute monster, and then you should learn how to control it.

It's better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.
