The post A Few Glorious Clips For Your Consideration appeared first on Caveman Circus.

Masturbation and porn does more harm than good.

What’s worse is that women sense it, too—overall, you’re less attracted to them because you’ve been satisfied without them, and in turn they’re less attracted to you which ultimately leads to a spiral of more masturbation and porn and more social anxiety since  you have less drive to pursue women in the real world.

Do I have your attention? It’s really important you are reading this because the above stated: the more you masturbate to porn the less likely you are to get laid.

In Phillip Zimbardo’s TED talk, “The Demise of Guys?”, Zimbardo asserts that the average boy watches 50 porn clips a week. For every movie made in Hollywood, there are 11,000 porn movies. Brains are being rewired to expect constant novelty and constant arousal, which is out of sync with the reality of real women and real relationships. In fact, the demand that men have for new porn stars cannot keep up with the supply. This trend will only continue as long as men consume more and more pornography.

This causes everyday pleasures to be less exciting than porn activity. This is same for other addicts, but it’s true for porn addicts as well. Few things can cause the kind of dopamine spike that an orgasm can, and healthy activities are steadily phased out. This causes a dullness in the life of man. There is no gusto. No drive to succeed in business, relationships and life. Men won’t be pursuing women in real life. They will go to work, joke around with guys, come home, eat, get online, jerk off to porn, and repeat.

In Psychology Today, Marnia Robinson stated that when people “abstain from porn and cut way back on masturbation, their desire to connect with others surges. So does their confidence, their ability to look others in the eye, their sense of humor, their perception of their ‘manliness,’ their concentration, charisma, their optimism, their judgment, their attractiveness to potential mates, and so forth.

Even those formerly suffering from social anxiety are more often than not emboldened to explore new avenues for social contact: smiling and joking with work colleagues, online dating, meditation groups, nightspots, and so forth. In some cases it takes months, but often the shift is so rapid that it catches them by surprise.”

On D-day, why didn’t the Allies just bomb the beach from the sea with ships before storming with people?

 If you haven’t read D-Day, by Stephen E Ambrose, I’d really recommend it if you’re interested. All quotations are from Chapter 14 of the book.

They bombarded the crap out of the beaches. Several veteran soldiers have said the opening naval barrage on D day was one of the loudest things they had ever heard. One of the Allied airborne troopers tells it this way. “The Barrage coming in was quite terrific. You could feel the whole ground shaking toward the coast. Soon they lifted the barrage farther inland. They sounded so big, and being poor bloody infantry, we had never been under naval fire before and these damn great shells came sailing over, such a size that you automatically ducked, even in the pillbox, as one went over, and my radio operator was standing next to me, very perturbed about his, and finally he said, ‘blimey, sir, they’re firing jeeps’”

A total of 68 destroyers participated in the bombardment of the 5 beaches. Ambrose summarizes the reason why the success didn’t work in the following way. “In short, a tremendous tonnage of shells hit the beaches and batteries. The results, for the most part, were terribly disappointing. As anyone who has visited the normandy beaches will attest, this was not because of inaccurate fire, but rather the result of German skill in fortification building… They [the batteries] took many direct hits, dozens in some cases, but even the 14-inch shells failed to penetrate. The shells made pock marks, the knocked away some concrete, they exposed the steel reinforcing rods, but they did not penetrate.” However “Many of the German gunners inside were rendered deaf or knocked out by concussion” from being inside a concrete bunker.

What was the scariest thing for a German soldier to see during WW2?

This isn’t a regular tank. It’s a Churchill Crocodile outfitted with a super-powered flamethrower.

Many Germans in WWII were incinerated alive shortly after seeing this view. Actually, the view they saw was a bit further away as the flamethrower wouldn’t usually be trying to shoot you at point blank range, but I digress.

Here’s an excerpt of a first-hand account from a German who went up against a Churchill Crocodile.

Cornelius Tauber, German First Lieutenant, (mid-sentence telling his d-day experience … he’s posted up in a defensive compound/bunker trying to hold off the allied invasion).

“Then another tank came around the corner to attack us. This new tank that emerged was a different model, I recognized it as a Churchill series, with heavily armored covers and a squared-off turret.

Our Turret fired, but the shell bounced off the Churchill’s front plate and tumbled away into the dunes. It fired again, but again the round richocheted off, and this worried me, because this Churchill was advancing on us quite quickly.

The churchill then fired high-explosive shells which blew up one of our machine gun emplacements at the corner. The crew of the machine gun were thrown out of their trench, and they lay badly injured on the barbed wire in front of us. They were moving and crying out for help, but of course there was nothing we could do for them in the situation.

Our French gun kept firing, but I think the gunner was panicking by this point, because he missed twice. The Churchill fired once again and this round exploded directly onto the French turret. It knocked the whole turret off its concrete base, and this thing went rolling away to one side. The gunner remained in the open concrete ring, with his whole body emitting smoke and flames.

At this point, looking from this poor man to the British tank, I became aware that this Churchill was different in some way from the photographs we had seen in our training sessions, in which we were taught about the strengths and weaknesses of the different Allied tanks. The training lectures had made no mention at all of what I saw next.

As the tank halted, there was a burst of flame from a point in the tank’s hull plate at the front.

Interviewer – So you were facing the type of tank known as the Churchill Crocodile?

“After the war, I learned that “Crocodile’ was the official name for the thing. We came to know it as a Flammenpanzer (flame tank), and it had a hugely demoralising effect on our troops.”

What form did its attack take in this situation?

“The initial burst of flame from its front hull was only a few metres long, and it set fire to the ground in front of it. The range by now was about two hundred metres from us. One of the troops in the slit trenches fired a Panzerfaust (German rocket propelled grenade) but it fell short and failed to explode.

Now, after that initial burst of flame, the Flammenpanzer began to fire at full power – and the effect was completely horrific.

It produced a jet of fire, which was a burning liquid of orange-yellow color. This roared out towards us at a very high speed, climbing perhaps ten metres in the air. The front of this flame jet spread out to the left and right, so that it produced an absolute curtain, or a solid wall, of flames. We all watched, stricken dumb by this apparition. The flamethrowers I had seen before were hand-held devices, such as the one at the beach bunkers, and they were bad enough!

This machine was a hundred times more powerful. This huge wall of flames collapsed down onto the ground in front of our position, so that it fell onto the two wounded machine gun men who were stranded on the barbed wire. They were swallowed up in this inferno of flames.

The heat burned our skin and hair, and the smell of the gasoline fuel was sickening. The flames poured all over the front of our position, and they went gushing into the slit trench there.

There was quite a row of men in that trench, with their rifles at the ready, and this all happened so rapidly and in such an unexpected way that they had no time to escape. I think there were a dozen men in there, and they were set alight at once. I saw that the whole trench was filled with this burning liquid, and the men in there were incinerated where they stood.

The heat was so intense that I couldn’t breathe properly, as the flames were about twenty metres away from me.”

How did the other men at the resistance Point react to this?

There was a panic, which seized us all, including myself and the other officer. We saw the spout of flame die down, as the Churchill ceased firing, but I was gripped by a terror of what would happen if it fired its flames again. We would all be swallowed up in that orange-yellow fireball. I leaped from my trench, as did all the other men around me, with no thought for rank of discipline. Some of these men were cut down by machine gun fire from the Churchill, and they tumbled around us as we, the surviving men, either threw our hands in the air in surrender or ran to the back of the point away from the tank.

I was among the latter group, which was about half a dozen men, and we ran to the Eastern side, getting away from the Flammenpanzer. I still had my MP40, but some men had dropped their guns and were simply running like civilians – no weapon, helmet just fleeing the wall of fire. Two of us were hit by machine gun fire from the Churchill, and in the end it was only myself and three men who managed to jump down into a sunken track and run along that, intending to reach the nearest German line to the rear. At one point, I looked back and saw a huge column of smoke rising from the area of the Resistance Point, which I assumed was now burned completely.

What happened to the hundreds of people left in the American Embassy after the last helicopter out of Saigon?

There was a significant timegap between the ‘last helicopter out of Saigon’ and the final PAVN (People’s Army Of Vietnam) push to capture the city. Ambassador Martins was flown out at 0500 Saigon Time on April 30, with the last helicopter (carrying the last few Marine guards) left at around 0700 to 0800.

CBS News’ Ed Bradley was one of those evacuated at the embassy, and described:

“Once inside the compound, for the Americans and those Vietnamese who managed to get in with legal documents and the many who managed entrance without, the rest was easy. It was just a matter of waiting your turn for a helicopter to take you to one of the ships on station off the Vietnamese coast.”

With Martins having ordered that only Americans be evacuated earlier that dawn, we can deduce that likely no Vietnamese were granted access to the last round of helicopter flights out to sea.

As PAVN troops were assaulting downtown Saigon at the same time, and with South Vietnam unconditionally surrendering at 10:24, we can deduce that few South Vietnamese decided to stick around at the embassy for the three hours after the last helicopter left.

The following days, PAVN forces consolidated their control in Ho Chi Minh City, with the Embassy and other government buildings being raided.

Afterwards, as stated in the Texas Tech Vietnam Oral History Interview of Phong Xuan Nguyen (a former South Vietnamese government official who was imprisoned for five years in a reeducation canp):

It was decreed that all the high ranking officials of the former Saigon regime would have to report for re-education for a period of thirty days…

Nguyen describes that his reeducation was later extended as he had been a very high ranked official. He describes his conditons at Tu Doc prison in the South:

Oh, it was very primitive. It was completely empty, the orphanage was completely empty, no furniture whatsoever and there were buildings with aluminum sheet roofing and it was just tiles, very primitive tiles as the floor. We slept on the floor and the food was provided twice a day, lunch and dinner by the administration, very primitive too but we had rice.

Nguyen interestingly mentions that although familial visits were not allowed, the guards were actually South Vietnamese, who treated the prisoners very courteously.

Nguyen was later moved to a prison camp in North Vietnam, where all prisoners were directed to write a ‘self-confession’. Nguyen was later put to work alongside other prisoners; he, specifically, became a mason and designed decorative ceramics. Other prisoners might be assigned to work in the fields or in other craftsmen roles. He was paid a small allowance as well.

All in all, I doubt that any Vietnamese were arrested at the Embassy, but if they were high ranking officials, they likely were imprisoned in reeducation camps for anywhere between thirty days and five years.

Who were the Khmer Rouge and what did they do?

The Khmer Rouge was a communist revolutionary government in Cambodia in the mid/late 70’s. It was founded by a group of largely western-educated Cambodians who entirely rejected concepts of the free market and individual liberties. Instead, they attempted to construct an entirely self-sustaining nation through a rigid regime of top-down social engineering. This included the abolishment of banking, finance, currency, and some religions. People living in urban areas were (often forcibly) moved to the rural areas of the country to work in agriculture (again, often against their will). It was a bold and frankly inhuman stab at what could conceivably be called a “classless” society. It is estimated that between 1.7 and 2 million Cambodians died during the 4 year reign of the Khmer Rouge

The genocide came in a number of forms, which included but were not limited to:

• Famine. The urban workers relocated to the fields knew nothing about agriculture, so land was not nearly cultivated to its full potential, resulting in mass famine almost immediately after the regime took control.

• Disease. The Khmer Rouge believed that the country should be autonomous in all respects, including medicine. If the country did not have the resources to produce a certain drug, that drug was entirely unavailable (at least to the non-ruling class). As a result, thousands died to common and preventable diseases.

• Execution and reeducation. Violations of the regime’s anti-capitalist tenets were generally punishable by death. If you hoarded food, you could be executed. If you harvested wild crops, you could be executed. If you traded for a profit, you could be executed. Naturally, if you ever spoke out (publicly or privately) against the regime or its principles, you could be executed. Needless to say, corporal punishment was doled out without judicial process. Additionally, torture and execution were doled out on those suspected of being an enemy of the regime. This included anyone with material ties to the former government, many people with college-level educations, individuals of other ethnic backgrounds (including Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai), virtually any practicing religious person, anyone unable to grow their assigned crops (at quotas well in excess of those achievable before the regime took power), almost anyone who spoke English or French, and even people who simply wore glasses.

In short, it was an attempt to reboot civilization (sans capitalism) and establish a society without wealth or class. As explained above, the Khmer Rouge did not tolerate non-believers well.

In early times, where brothels and prostitutes were a part of everyday life, how did the prostitutes avoid getting pregnant?

So, as far as contraception goes, evidence is pretty sketchy but it seems like prostitutes did make an effort to avoid getting pregnant by various means. One of them was to physically extract semen from themselves after they’d seen one or more clients by wrapping fabric around their fingers and then inserting it into themselves to basically scrape it out. This probably wasn’t all that effective for obvious reasons 

Most other methods were probably based around using herbal mixtures to make the women less likely to conceive, or even make them sterile – people do actually seem to have had pretty good knowledge of herbs and plants which can help prevent pregnancy. John Riddle has written a book on this called Eve’s Herbs if anybody’s interested.

Prostitutes might also take emmenagogues (menstrual stimulants) which had the effect of an early-term abortion if the woman in question were pregnant. In the case I looked at, this is what happened, and it’s pretty clear that some brothel-keepers knew how to do this, and that prostitutes were also familiar with the ingredients needed. In this case, the mixture was made up of cloves, Queen Anne’s Lace, periwinkle, and strong wine. The prostitute who took it was 20 weeks pregnant, so she aborted a pretty well-developed foetus :/

Prostitutes were only supposed to have sex in the missionary position, so it would have been pretty hard to avoid getting pregnant, but I guess it might have been possible sometimes to persuade customers not to ejaculate inside them. I found another case in which a guy was burned at the stake for having buttsex with a prostitute in a brothel, so I don’t think non-vanilla sex was too common. Having said that, there is a really cool case from London from 1395 involving a male transvestite prostitute who was found working the streets alongside regular female prostitutes – it seems like he may have had anal sex with male clients (maybe that’s what they were after…), so anal sex with prostitutes may not have been that unusual.

I hope that was helpful – like I said the evidence is really sketchy, but what we do know suggests that herbal contraceptive lore might have been quite well-developed and part of an experienced prostitute’s business know-how. In the area I looked at (southern Germany and Switzerland) pregnant prostitutes were supposed to be put out of brothels, though in practice this risked losing money for brothel-keepers so it was not always enforced. Kids were born in brothels and some even lived there for short periods with their mothers. Interestingly, it was also theorised in the Middle Ages by the French scholastic philosopher William of Conches that prostitutes couldn’t get pregnant because their wombs were so filled with dirt from all the bonin’.

Pro Wrestling Matched Turned Real….Kimura vs Rikidozan

This was supposed to be seen as the duel of the century in Japan, with both wrestlers having backgrounds in martial arts, or fighting in some form. Kimura had a judo background, even inventing what we know today as the Kimura Lock. Rikidozan had a background in sumo wrestling. Their rivalry was to be booked as a series of matches, with the first scripted to end in a draw. After an errant kick to the groin, Rikidozan snapped. He unleashed a flurry of chops to Kimura’s neck and face. At one point, Kimura even turned to the referee, presumably to ask for some kind of help, only to be pummeled to the floor and kicked in the face while the ref just watched and nodded.

Somehow Kimura mustered up enough strength to stand up, bewildered by the turn of events. After the referee checked him for injuries, Rikidozan raced back in and chopped Kimura so hard in the neck that he knocked him out cold.

On December 8, 1963, while partying in a Tokyo nightclub, Rikidōzan was stabbed with a urine-soaked blade by a man named Katsuji Murata who belonged to the ninkyō dantai (Yakuza) Sumiyoshi-ikka. Reportedly, Rikidōzan threw Murata out of the club and continued to party, refusing to seek medical help. Another report states that Rikidōzan did indeed see his physician shortly after the incident, and was told the wound was not serious. He died a week later of peritonitis on December 15. It is rumored by Kimura that his murder was in retaliation for what transpired in the wrestling match.

Transgender fighter makes history against man in Muay Thai bout

On June 7th, 2017, Nong Rose Barnjaroensuk became the first transgender to compete in Thailand’s Rajadamnern Stadium, the country’s oldest Muay Thai stadium and the most prestigious one along the Lumpinee.

The road to the Rajadamnern has been tough for Nong Rose, tough. In fact, the transgender fighter, who identifies as a female, has struggled for years on her quest to fight in the stadium since it enforces strict dress code rules, notably forbidding sports bras. Long hair is not allowed either. Needless to say those rules severely limited Nong Rose’s chances to ever compete in the prestigious stadium.

It’s only after Nong Rose made waves in lesser known stadiums and after she collaborated with OneSongchai, Thailand’s most influential Muay Thai promoter, that the doors of the Rajadmnern opened for her.

Roy Jones toying with his opponent

Jimmy Smith The Worst Boxer Ever!

The moment a smart but worried father discovered his son’s opponent cheated by removing his padding & soaking his hand wraps in plaster of Paris. The opponent was later sentenced to 2.5 years in prison 

Undefeated Billy Collins Jr. (14-0, 11 KO) was a junior middleweight (154 lb.) prospect on his way up.

Luis Resto (20-8-2, 8 KO) was a light-punching journeyman.

Resto beat Collins’ eyes shut and his skin purple and blue. Collins suffered a torn iris and his vision was forever blurred. Collins could no longer fight.

Collins’ father and trainer Collins Sr. went up to shake Resto’s hand out of sportsmanship, only to be overcome with rage at how thin Resto’s glove was. He demanded the gloves be impounded.

Resto’s padding had been removed, and Resto himself admitted years later that his handwraps had been soaked in plaster of Paris, a substance that hardens into plaster casts.

Collins began drinking and became violent without boxing in his life.

He would later drive his car into a cement wall in 1984, ending his life at age 22.

Resto and his trainer, Panama Lewis, were banned for life from the sport.

Resto served 2 1/2 years in prison for assault, while boxing suffered a tragedy that shows just how dangerous cheating can be in this sport.

The more you hate yourself, the more you will try to please and impress the other people around you all the time. After all, if you secretly believe that you’re a rotten piece of shit, then it follows that you will overvalue what other people think of you, and you will unconsciously dedicate all of your efforts to manipulating them into thinking you’re not the awful person you secretly believe you are.

The word “yes” gets a lot of hype these days, but I want to bring back the power of saying “no.”

Saying no is pretty awesome when you know when and how to say it right. You say no to doing a bunch of meaningless shit that you don’t think is important in life. You say no to people who overstep their boundaries and make unfair demands of your time or attention. You say no to make it clear to others where you stand and what you will/will not tolerate in your relationships. No is awesome.

Saying these nos is difficult, of course. That’s because the ability to say a healthy no requires a certain degree of self-respect and self-care. But saying no to the people and things that harm your life rather than help is often the first step to learning how to love and care for yourself.

Oh, and of course, you learn to say no to yourself too, to discipline yourself and keep yourself in check, to remind yourself that you don’t, in fact, know everything or even know what the hell you’re saying or doing half the time. This is such an underrated skill, yet it seems to be lost these days in the “give me one of everything” age.

The post Social Justice Warriors….LOL! appeared first on Caveman Circus.

Wars never really end, because even though they may finish on the battlefield, many veterans bring the war back home and are forced to live with them for the rest of their lives.

Bobby Henline (pictured above) was trapped inside a transport when he was hit by a roadside bomb in Iraq. He was the only survivor.

This sad and sobering truth is highlighted by photographers like David Jay and James Nachtwey, who have been documenting young and badly wounded American soldiers following their return home from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“Bobby was hit by incoming artillery, sustaining burns over 60% of his body. He is pictured here with his daughter Layla.”

Jerral Hancock was driving a tank in Iraq. A roadside bomb pierced the armor, breaching the interior. Jarral lives in Lancaster with his two, beautiful children.

On November 12, 2011, army first lieutenant Nicholas was severely injured by an IED while on a foot-patrol in Panjwaii, Afghanistan.

Marissa Strock was injured when her vehicle was struck by an IED buried in the road. She was 20 years old.

SSG Shilo Harris lives in Houston. Shilo was severely burned on February 19th, 2007 by a road side bomb estimated at 700 lbs. He lost three men out of a crew of 5. Only Shilo and his driver survived the blast.

Tomas Young enlisted in the army two days after the 2001 September 11th attacks. Five days after being sent to Iraq, he was shot in the spine while riding in an unarmored vehicle in Sadr City, leaving him paralyzed. He died in 2014 (about a year and a half after this photo was taken) due to complications from his injuries.

Army staff sergeant Allan Armstrong was deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan four times. He had just finished training when a motorcycle crash took his leg. He has since placed first in the 2014 Warrior Games in the 100 and 200 meter sprints.

Cedric King lost both of his legs to an IED in Afghanistan. His daughters talked him into trying swimming, and from there he finished the 2014 Boston Marathon in just over six hours; completed a Half Ironman race, and the New York City marathon. He is also a motivational speaker.

First Lieutenant Jason Pak On Dec. 13, 2012 was on a foot patrol in Zangabad, Afghanistan when an IED exploded. The blast took Jason’s legs (and part of his hand) but it could not take his spirit.

This is Navy Seal, Bo Reichenbach. 25 years old. He was injured on July, 17th 2012 in Afghanistan.

Army Corporal David Bixler lost both legs while serving in Afghanistan.

Joel, now 26, was injured in Iraq at age 20. Severely burned, blinded, a leg lost and over 90 surgeries later.

Army combat medic Sergeant Adam Hartswick lost his legs and suffered a brain injury while treating wounded soldiers in Afghanistan. He is in virtual-reality therapy, and has learned to walk again.

Marine CPL Christian Brown at the Walter Reed Medical Center. On Dec. 13, 2011, Christian was leading his squad on foot patrol in Helmand Province, Afghanistan when he stepped on an improvised explosive device. Both of his legs were blown off- one above the knee, the other below the hip. Just four days prior, under heavy enemy fire, Christian had carried a mortally wounded Marine almost 1,000 feet to a hovering helicopter.

Daniel stepped on a IED, losing one leg and destroying the other.

Army Specialist Stephanie Morris suffered leg injuries in an attack in Afghanistan. With physical therapy, she has since run the Army ten-miler.

On June 8, 2013, in Paktika Province, Afghanistan, Major Matt was shot along with five others by a member of the Afghan National Army. The bullet severed his femoral artery resulting in the amputation of his leg.

Retired Navy hospital corpsman Jose Ramos lost an arm in an Iraqi rocket attack. He expects to participate in the 2016 Paralympics.

“Running is what I do to relax,” he says.

Retired Army Captain Wayne Waldon lost a leg in Baghdad, Iraq. Seven years later, he not only walks, but is an adaptive snowboarding champion.

“The prosthetic leg doesn’t feel stuck to me anymore,” he says. “It has become part of me.”

Among developed countries, the United States has the highest rate of obesity, with one-third of the population classified as obese. This rate is estimated by the Harvard School of Public Health to reach 50% by 2030.

As of 2014, the United States has the highest incarceration rate on the planet. While America represents 4.4% of the world’s population, it houses 22% of the world’s prisoners.

Areas Of Cartel Influence In Mexico

There are a number of reasons why drug cartels have gained such influence over the Mexican state and the United States never-ending War on Drugs is one of them. Mexico is a major US heroin supplier as well as the largest foreign supplier of methamphetamine and marijuana. In fact, production of these drugs has only increased since Mexico launched its own War on Drugs in 2005. Currently, the drug trade employs approximately 500,000 people and contributes around $30 billion a year to the Mexican economy.

Opiod Drug overdose deaths in the United States per 100,000 persons for 1999 and 2014

On December 12, 1995, the Food and Drug Administration approved the opioid analgesic OxyContin. It hit the market in 1996. In its first year, OxyContin accounted for $45 million in sales for its manufacturer, Stamford, Connecticut-based pharmaceutical company Purdue Pharma. By 2000 that number would balloon to $1.1 billion, an increase of well over 2,000 percent in a span of just four years. Ten years later, the profits would inflate still further, to $3.1 billion. By then the potent opioid accounted for about 30 percent of the painkiller market. What’s more, Purdue Pharma’s patent for the original OxyContin formula didn’t expire until 2013. This meant that a single private, family-owned pharmaceutical company with non-descript headquarters in the Northeast controlled nearly a third of the entire United States market for pain pills.

Stop making excuses.

Stop finding reasons for your unhappiness, your failure in life.

Stop looking at the lives others lead and enviously wanting to be in their shoes, with their upbringing, and their social status.

Whining, complaining, giving reasons for why you’re failing, they’re all excuses and they all remove YOUR ability to BE HAPPY.

For fuck’s sakes it’s getting to be too much!

Everywhere you go you hear people complaining. Conversations start about what’s wrong with their job or with the world or how they wish they could take a vacation.

You can’t! We need to work. We need to save. We need to shut up and do what we’ve gotta do because we want to not only survive, but thrive!

Since when are vacations a “right”?

Since when do we deserve what we cannot afford and should not spend our money on?

Since when is buckling down and saving and working harder not the only option?

If you don’t like where you are in life YOU HAVE TO CHANGE IT.
