WHAT ARE METAPHORS AND WHY

SHOULD YOU LEARN THEM?

As you already know, I preach ALL AROUND GROWTH. You don't want to be a
"Pickup Artist" who has all the lines but no charisma and character to back
them up with substance.

There's a saying-

If you want to change the world, change the metaphor.

And this holds a lot of truth.

Have there been times when you wanted to get a point across to someone,
but you simply couldn't by using explanations?

That's exactly where metaphors steps in.

Why do metaphors work so well? Because we've always tried to explain

things by comparing them to something else.

For example, someone asks you-

"Why do you read so many books?"

You could say- "It teaches me a lot, It's very calming, I like to stay on top of
things. blah blah blah."

Or, you could simply respond-

"Because Reading is to the mind, what exercise is to the body.

BOOM.

Which one had a greater effect on you? That's why learning metaphors is
CRUCIAL to becoming a high-value man.

"Metaphors are to a High-Value Man, what a sharpened spear is to a skilled

warrior."

A ship is most safe in it's harbor.
but that's not what it is made for.

IN LIFE YOU CHOOSE TO EITHER BE A PLAYER ON

THE COURT OR A FAN IN THE STANDS.

LIONS DON'T LOSE SLEEP OVER THE OPINION OF SHEEP

A SMOOTH SEA NEVER MADE A SKILLED SAILOR

I'm NOT TRAINING FOR A RACE.

i'M TRAINING FOR THE MARATHON OF LIFE

THE BEST MOTIVATIONAL SPEECHES I GOT WERE FROM

PEOPLE WHO TOLD ME I COULDN'T DO SOMETHING

ONLY A DEAD BODY IS PROTECTED.

TO LIVE IS DANGEROUS

IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE, YOU WON'T

IN A WORLD WHERE PEOPLE CONSUME,

CREATE.

LIFE IS NOT WAITING FOR THE STORM TO PASS

IT'S LEARNING HOW TO DANCE IN THE RAIN

FAILURE IS A COMMA, NOT A FULL STOP

THE ENEMY OF THE BEST IS GOOD

TO BE LIKE THE ROCK THAT THE WAVES KEEP CRASHING OVER.

IT STANDS UNMOVED AND THE RAGING OF THE SEA FALLS STILL
AROUND IT

SUCCESS IS TOLERATING WHAT THE 99% AVOID,

AND AVOIDING WHAT THE 99% TOLERATE

BEATING THE COMPETITION IS RELATIVELY EASY.

BEATING YOURSELF IS A NEVER ENDING COMMITMENT

IF IT WAS EASY,
EVERYONE WOULD DO IT.
DOMINATE.

YOU MUST WANT TO BE A BUTTERFLY SO BADLY THAT YOU'RE

WILLING TO GIVE UP BEING A CATERPILLAR

SUCCESS IS LIKE A HEAT SEEKING MISSILE- IT SEEKS MOVEMENT
