School of the Black Samurai

Hello Enlightened Samurai Readers,

Welcome to the School of the Black Samurai, he is the Strategist of Achievement. This is his message:

Achievement is not for the weak-hearted. It is the reward of those who are dedicated. This is the motto for the school of the Victors, Conquerors and Greats.

Pursue Mastery

You can guarantee success in any endeavor if you focus on one thing:

Mastery.

You can ignore everything else in this guide, but please do not forget this—focus on mastering your craft.

Do not be driven by results. A result-focused mindset is a chain that binds you. Do not attach yourself to it.

Detachment from results leads to greatness. When you put your mind, body, and spirit into your work, without concern for the outcome, you solidify your success.

Be content in both success and failure, in disappointment and victory.

The victors know that mastery of their discipline leads to supreme victory

Victory is not a gift bestowed upon the idle

Your enemies are many, and they are cunning. To lay waste to them, you must first master yourself. Control your impulses, harness your energy, and direct it with precision. Discipline is your sword; focus, your shield.

Resolve

Are you capable of pushing past difficulties and hardships?

How far are you willing to go? How much are you willing to sacrifice to achieve your goals?

Your level of resolve will depend on your answers to these questions.

This is the Black Samurai's plan for building more resolve:

Resolve is created when we align ourselves with a worthwhile goal.

1. First, ingrain this goal in your mind. Affirm it a thousand times if you have to.

2. Next, eliminate distractions from your environment to remain focused. Your entire life must be reorganized around this goal to optimize resolve.

3. Finally, burn the boats. If you fail, it's all over. There is no going back.

Don’t be a Coward and shy away from this plan.

Discipline

Self-discipline is when your highest desires rule your lesser desires, not through resistance, but through understanding and compassion.

Discipline does not lead to suppression; it leads to rejuvenation. We rejuvenate when we decide to place certain desires above others. This conscious choice leads to a change in behaviour.

Never resist—choose to rule instead.

The attainment of a higher desire leads to the rejection of lesser desires

This is the core secret of my school. This is how you dominate your objectives and rivals.
