Think about how boring life can be. I donât mean to be ungrateful that we live in the greatest era of abundance in human history but wow, it really can reduce life to: wake up, eat, take a shit, go to work for a few hours, look like youâre busy with something, then go home, sleep, and repeat it the next day.
Why wouldnât you just seek out pleasure at all times to âenjoy yourselfâ? Our monkey brains donât have a cap on pleasure, meaning something in us has to say enough is enough. Usually, that happens when unlimited access to pleasure starts pulling apart our focus from a greater goal.
But our monkey brains ask:âWhy do we skip pleasure for a greater goal that will only lead to more pleasure?â --âWhy do I delay pleasure?â đ
Well, thatâs a great question, Monkey...
Maybe itâs because the entire system is bent on hijacking your mammalian operating system: attention, sexual desires, security, and existential purpose. How about you fight back by doing something that proves youâre not a monkeyâthat youâre a powerful being, meant to be the entire universe inverted?
How about you get the one thing under control that deals with all four attack formations the system has planned for your psyche: your sexual energy.
Attention cannot be thrown so lightly toward visually stimulating girls on Instagram when practicing semen retentionâyouâd be self-sabotaging, and you know it. Focus is your friend. Sexual desires have to be tamed to maintain an intentional streak of semen retention. Security is not provided by the external world; it happens within. Itâs not the size of the dog in the fightâitâs the fight in the dog! WOOF!
Semen retention puts that fight in you. As for existential purpose, just think about how distracting a scattered sexual energy is for a man. I'm pretty sure we all know a guy who has a scattered sexual energy and it's not a pretty sight. Practicing semen retention removes distractions so a man can align himself with a powerful path and not be led astray, literally by himself.
Now, do I think semen retention should be done forever and that we should all be monks? Not at all. Just donât waste it on behavior you know is self-sabotaging. Donât pussyfoot around what you know youâre doing. âMaybe itâs not that bad to jizz into my handâŚâ Shut up, Monkey! đ
You are not monkeys. You are men, and you have control. Masculine energy is order. It is structure. It is raw power, and we shouldnât waste it.
Stay focused, Kings. đ
