What I love about spirituality is that it has levels and I consider myself as Thick Face Black Heart Warrior!
Thick Face Black heart is a book on the warrior’s philosophy. It pertains to business in a few specific chapters, but for the most apart is about developing the outlook on life to succeed.
This book kicks ass. I’d say this is a must read if you are interested in improving your life.
There are 2 elements that the book addresses:
Thick Face- The shield
Black Face- The spear
Thick Face is a shield a shield to protect yourself from the negative opinions of others. This is all about being non-reactive and having the faith in yourself, your purpose, and your abilities to carry on in the face of opposition to your goals.
Black Heart is the ability to take action without regard to how the consequences will affect others. A black heart is ruthless not necessarily evil.
These are 2 elements that every good PUA needs to have. You need to be unaffected by others and be wiling to go to extremes to get what you want.
Here’s a quote that really resonated with me.
The natural way of Thick Face Black Heart is beyond human manipulation, beyond the petty standards of human judgment. When one acts in harmony with the universal will, one’s actions are aligned with the good and benefit of all. You are neither self-righteous nor too eager to please; nor are you seeking approval. In action you are swift, competent and dispassionate. In yielding you are unabashed and have no concern for others judgments. In conquering you are effective and can be ruthless, In action and non action you are changeless. You are a true Thick Face Black Heart practitioner.
Highly recommended.
