Firstly, read Archilocus. Secondly, realize that no amount of reading will make you a warrior.

Ernst Junger's Storm of Steel is the book that cured me of my warrior fantasies. It made me realize that true warriors are simply on another level from us mere mortals, losers like us could never get into Junger's headspace.

Not sure how Merriam defines it but I generally see warriors as being participants in a cause that involves violence, they aren't necessarily the best fighters and might not make the best soldiers. Sounds like you need to find a cause, then abandon your pretentions of violence and maybe study Ghandi, he trounced his British oppressors and the most work he had to put in were some fork put downs. If you still feel violence is the best way then you need to become a better fighter and forget all that warrior crap, your jail time will be easier.

Thucydides, Homer unironically, Sunzi (Ames translation), Propensity of Things, Cunning Intelligence in Greek Society and Culture. Look for books on pankration, muay thai, and judo, and/or BJJ. Then practice them. A lot. This would make you actually strategic and be good at martial arts.

Warriors are warriors because they know what they are fighting for and why. Find where your loyalties lie Anon. It’s like how soldiers in the SS could go through horrible trauma with no consequences while ZOGbots are getting PTSD over a little action. One is fighting for his family, his nation and the other is fighting for heroin fields and to line the pockets of already fat wallets.

Physical courage isn’t gained through books. It isn’t gained at all. The body, when put under extreme stress, reaches an either/or moment where it either fights or dies. There is no way to predict how a person will react in that type of situation. I mean this sincerely.

>> No.22402922

I don't think any book is going to make you a warrior, you need to hit the gym and pick up a combat sport and then actually fight people on a regular basis to become a warrior. No joke go to a prison for a violent crime. All those low IQ goons in there it's basically gladiator school.

Yep. The guy had all the credibility in the world and only added to it with his post-war actions. It could never ever ever get published today. Instead we'd get a girl boss fantasy written by some fat black woman who forgot to get pregnant before shipping out to Iraq for 6 months as a cook and never set foot off the base.

Read the original 1929 translation. It's the one translated by Basil Creighton. Later versions were "sanitized" by removing his thoughts on leadership and politics, both of which are important to understand Jünger's actions/attitude.

"This sea-cyclone calamity,
This storm-wave pounding our hearts
–with hiss and thunder together
It climbed to knock Rat
With an orchard of foam on top–
Has mauled us and choked us with hurt.
What are backbones if not ramrods?
The gods toughen us, Perikles,
To stand this pain. Fortune, misfortune;
Misfortune, fortune. Grit your teeth.
Not all of us need be women."

Revolt Against the Modern World, Bronze Age Mindset, Blood Meridian, Storm of Steel, and the Epic of Gilgamesh. My tip is to read these in a foreign country. Try taking excursions to 3rd world locations and revel in the lowest parts of society. Do this while working out, and exploring the country.

My life was boring as fuck so I started going out and just fighting people. I started putting on a ski mask and at first it was only homeless people then it evolved to high school kids and now I’m picking fights with grown men. I even have a nemesis. I beat up the same guy a couple times, found out where he works so I catch him off guard after he gets off work. He’s been posting on Facebook about catching me at night and giving me what I deserve. Dude drives around at night with a shotgun trying to kill me. My life is so much more exciting now am I crazy for doing this?
