Here are the best 10 ideas from “The Way of The Superior Man” by David Deida

★★★ BIG 10 IDEAS ★★★

1. POLARITY
Polarity - Masculine and Feminine - Night / day. - Black + white / color - Up / down - hot / cold - east / west - moon / sun
This is what creates ATTRACTION - magnets.

2. Stop Hoping For Completion
If you’re not doing it right now - probably won’t ever do it.
Success fantasies - can be the REASON you hurt and the reason you don't take action.

3. Live At Your (REAL) Edge (don’t fake it)
32,850 - number of days from birth to 90 y.o.
Lean just beyond edge. Small gains. Gym - increase slowly.
Safety path (educate 20 / work 40 / retire 20) vs. Danger path (risk it all)

4. Never Change Your Mind to Please Your Woman
Or anyone for that matter
Safety mechanism - b/c if your idea fails = ALL on you. If change mind = safety of blaming someone else. BUT if it succeeds = you DON’T feel confident (not your idea). Add stock to your own decision making skills, not others.

5. Discover Your Purpose Today
Know Thyself - True North - You and Only You Can Do!
Discover your STRENGTHS today!
Martin Seligman “Know your strengths, use them often”

Had no Idea that Cristiano was so thoughtful

Read the book. Two of the things that I would include in the list to share is Chaoter 5: Always hold to your deepest realization and Chapter 7: Your purpose must come before your relationship.

As a woman I read this book before deciding if I wanted my man to read the book. It is a tremendous resource. I adore what it stands for and how it has helped me understand men and also how to ask for what I want as well. I recommend it to all my friends and know when my kids are old enough will want them to read it. It may be an older book, but I think every point made is still valid. I think if more people read it we would be able to find the balance in men and women relationships and how to embrace and accept each other. I am absolutely a strong, independent and alpha type personality and require my man to also be a force, but I also want to make sure that we both feel good at the end of the day and we are also able to embrace each other in a way that really feels good for both of us. EVERYONE should read this book. It answers so many questions.

Im probably going to show through this comment the truth of the 8. point :) However I found the most important message in the book to be that we as men have to put our missions before any relationship in our lives, including the one to our spouse/girlfriend, and that in fact women are subconsciously turned off by men who put their woman first. Deep down they want to feel that their man is willing to sacrifice the relationship for his mission! This was very powerful to me and really changed the way look at my priorities and life. I just wondered why you left that out? thanks!

1) The best advice this book offers (if I had to pick only one) is the point on polarity and the differences between masculine and feminine energies and how they work together an assist each other for growth
2) The concept I would've also included in here is the point on you always knowing your direction you want to head, and how you will get there even for the smallest most mundane decisions.

Great vid overall. Brilliant book

This is a good assessment of the book. I've been reading this book for 10 years on an almost daily basis. The book is a little more spiritual than what is being presented. The book teaches you how to deal with your emotions/feelings negative and positive. I love this book and the audio book.

[Prillexprex]

"projecting outwards is more pleasurable", this is what I needed to hear. Its true, and its a trap. Thanks Clark

[raymond]

I used to read this book every other year. Your summary is a brilliant summary of a wonderful book.

[aprilbell]

I am a woman with 3 adult sons, came across this book mentioned on FB. Looked for reviews...Amazon had some very negative reviews, so I'm glad I found your summary of the book. It gave me a much clearer idea of what the books is about. Some of the negatives were that the book is too "spiritual" but your thoughts were very rational and understandable...which makes me more interested in the book. Thank you.

#2 Stop Hoping for Completion
Here and Now, Enjoy the Moment and Success Fantasy Man that is truth.
Thank You for the lesson!

[melissadiazpardo]

Love this book!!! I just finished it and I want to read it again ! 🤓
Have never feel more validated and understood as a woman, I gotta say I have learned a lot about men but incredibly more about woman and even myself! Thank you for your video, such a good job !

[Sejdr]

Ah, I suffer from success fantasies...always thought I was somewhat undiciplined or lazy but your formulation capture it exactly!
TY! :)

[michaelspafford]

This has got to be one of the best summaries I have seen you do, Clark! I especially liked your insights on the book's parts on relationships.

Keeping your heart full of love and not letting it get closed by life or your woman

[ms.jackson]

I found this Channel bc Nipsey was gifted The Mind of a Superior Man by his wife Lauren London and highly recommended it. I agree as a mostly feminine I find myself in need of a masculine man.

I'm willing to submit if I can trust the man word and observe his hard, honest work. If he is communicative, compassionate and self disciplined I am usually more attracted and soften up more when I realize he adores me and is willing to engage me. I don't mind helping him build and grow. I do feel he should put integrity first and I need him to be firm on his thoughts. Personally, I tend to think the same way about life. Such as How do I live my Best Life in 30, 000+ days and I choose to not use excuses, not indulge in nonsense and to learn as much as I can in order to adapt to constant change and to help the World.

[gabrielguevara]

He should lean just beyond the edge of fear and discomfort. Constantly. In everything he does.

That right there is something you read every morning when you wake up. Powerful, powerful stuff.

[raytorres]

One of the take aways for me was that men think in facts and women think in feelings attached to the fact. HUGE for me..

You Really Are Providing A Great Service To People Danger...Please Keep It Going

[hayrolom]

These reviews are a mix of constructive ideas, creative and sincere .

[marcelloval]

Thanks for condensing the book down - best idea: stop hoping for completion. Is that even possible? Learning to enjoy "the journey" is surely the key...
