Our mission is to provide good people with the tools and knowledge to cultivate a resilient mind, a powerful body, and a limitless spirit. Elevate Mental Health, Ignite Fitness & Master Self-Improvement with us.

The world is a harsh place, where “bad” people, who don’t necessarily deserve it, rise to the top and many “good” people get left behind.

Since this page is all about finding solutions and not complaining about how the world is, we don’t blame the narcissists, manipulators and idiots in today’s world for doing what they do. And frankly, we don’t care that they are doing it. Trying to change the world does you no good and is only a nuisance when it comes to acheiving your goals.

We would rather you accept reality as it is and move through life with the necessary knowledge about human nature and, especially, power. Outsmarting other people has always been the best way to acheive success.

That’s why at conquerandelevate.com we don’t try to change anything.

We observe, orient, adapt and overcome with one goal only: To level up.

Conquerandelevate

 

What is clear to us after being on the journey to developing ourselves to the best version we can be, is that self-improvement alone does not suffice in order to suceed in the world. Leveling up your body and mindset is great, but you also require an understanding of the power dynamics that are in place whenever you interact with a person or a group of people.

Depending on where you want to be in your life, you need to navigate these power dynamics accordingly. This then serves as an amplifier of your already improved self.

So what do you do now? Let’s talk about it. Conquerandelevate.com is all about becoming the best version of yourself. You have to become better to do well in life. Therefore, we will explain to you what skillsets and attributes you require to become truly high value.

These are the values our website and it’s content is based upon.

 

The five pillars of Self-Improvement

 

As Self-Improvement is a container word, we first have to define what it means exactly. What is a container word, you ask?

Container Words are loose terms whose meaning lie in the eyes of the beholder. These words can be filled with whatever subjective biases a person has and are then often used as a means to manipulate someone into doing some kind of action.

Ever heard a woman shame a man for not being a “real man”? You see the container word in action right there. This woman just dumps her container at this man’s feet and expects him to be completely aligned with its meaning. She expects the man’s container to be filled up with exactly the same biases that she has filled her own container with.

As soon as the man has a different interpretation of the word, the woman shames him for not conforming or supplicating to her biases. Ridiculous, I know. You can possibly think of more words like this. Love is another one, as well as relationships, or honor, or pride, or even the popular term “high-value man”.

When it comes to interpersonal dynamics, people generally make rules up by themselves and then run with them. They do this to justify their actions and soothe their ego. If they just fill their container words with the right biases, there is a justification for everything… Right?

Okay, let’s dive into our definition of self-improvement.

 

Self-Improvment Pillar 1: Looks

 

Yes, looks are important. This is an undeniable fact. Why else do you think are people trying to appear flawless on social media and present themselves as a perfect human being in every way?

 

Looks are so important, that entire industries have been built to amplify them…

Conquerandelevate

 

Think of the makeup industry!

Looks are important for men to get their foot in the door when it comes to the dating game. However, they can make up for the lack thereof with other qualities. For women, on the other hand, looks are a prerequisite when it comes to attracting a mate.

We believe that both genders need to look the part to have success in life. Pretty privilege is a thing, guys. And altough women profit much more from how they look to others, men can also gain various advantages in life depending on how they present themselves.

 

Looks are the first impression someone gets of you. Make sure that this first impression is as remarkable as it can be and helps you in the future!

 

In today’s society, most people will probably tell you that being fat is a virtue and that you look amazing even if you’re 150 pounds overweight. We say it is a disgrace. Your ancestors have had to fight in wars and therefore be in their best physical shape possible. They didn’t die somewhere on a muddy field to protect freedom just for you to sit on your lazy ass and be a fat POS.

We know that sounds hard, but we need to call it how it is. We see no point in sugarcoating the issue and trying to protect peoples “feelings”. It is much more important to be honest to people and point out their flaws and what they can improve to make a lasting impression.

So we’re gonna be honest: The ONE thing that improves your looks drastically and acts as a true attractiveness-amplifier is having a good body. You can’t change your face and how pretty it is (unless you want to spend a few bands) but you can put your best foot forward to build an impressive and lean physique. In the grand scheme of things, this can make a huge difference. However, you don’t need to look like a Mr. Olympia competitor to be aesthetic. If you have average genetics, a few years of hard training will do the trick.

I know, that sound easier than it is in the field, but that’s why we are here, right? In our category Kratos – Fitness and Nutrition we teach you everything you need to know in order to build an amazing physique.

 

Self-Improvment Pillar 2 – Social Status and Money

 

Status

We could have made different categories for these two elements of self-improvement, but in our opinion, they are tied together.

Online Gurus throw the word status around like no one’s business but I have heard few distinct and to the point explanations of it.

Let’s look at the cambridge dictionary definition:

 

The position of respect and importance given to someone or something.

 

Status essentially means that you have a certain position in society (or small groups in society) that command respect and signal importance. You are respected by your peers and are something like a leader in a group. Think of Drake in the music industry; He is a highly respected rapper and one of the best in the field. Everybody knows him.

Women love high-status men. Status signals to them that a man is most likely able to meet all their needs and provide a certrain lifestyle for them. This is why many ladies flock to men with status and try to be associated with them.

Status can be difficult to navigate, especially when thinking about how complex society is. Status can be acquired through multiple endeavours… But I digress. We will delve deeper into this topic in our blog.

 

Money

This is self-explanatory. Cash rules everything around us.

To have a certain degree of freedom in this world, you need to acquire resources. In the modern world, money is the the most important of those resources.

However, making money is hard. If it wasn’t, everybody would be rich. Nevertheless, you must strive to get to a certain level of income. We understand if you don’t want to build your own business. If this is not your goal, then don’t do it.

What we are telling you to do, however, is to be better at your job than everybody else. We will also give you strategies on how to climb up the corporate ladder by selling yourself to the right people in the right way.

We talked about Money and Status being tied together, right? That’s because with more money comes more influence and therefore status. The higher your income, the more you can influence the world around you. Money creates opportunities – Opportunities you need in order to build your status even more.

If you’re at a certain level income wise, you will be able to provide a huge deal of value to the people you surround yourself with. You will also be able to provide value to other high value individuals and connect with them. Then, depending on your social skills and ability to negotiate, you could build a connection with them and do more business to generate even more cash.

See how this works? It all builds on each other!

 

Self-Improvment Pillar 3 – Frame

 

Frame is probably one of the most misunderstood subjects in the Self-improvement Space. We have read so many definitions of it and frankly, no one can explain it in an comprehensible way.

We will give you a short overview here but of course dive much deeper into the topic in our articles. In our opinion, frame is heavily tied to power dynamics.

Generally, a frame can be described as the following:

 

A frame is a set of beliefs, values , perspectives and personal predispositions with which people filter and interpret the world. 

 

This interpretation of the “world” can range from general beliefs about oneself and the meaning to life, to much more practical topics such as who is right and who is wrong in a discussion. Think about the following conversation (dumb example, but really gets the point across):

 

You: “The sky is most definitely blue, just look at it!”

Him: “Never ever, the sky is and always will be green! You have no idea what you’re talking about!

 

In this example, two worldviews clash and there will be a discussion on who is right and who is wrong. Now, whoever “wins” that discussion, has imposed their frame onto the other person and effectively gains social status.

The same is true for the other way around. People try to impose their frames on others constantly. Even a small joke at your expense can shift the dynamics of your relationships drastically if you let value-taking frames go unchallenged.

 

Whoever controls the frame, controls the relationship

 

Many people think that this only applies to romantic relationships. But controlling the frame in an effective manner can help you in all aspects of life.

Whether you’re at your job, with a friend group or with your partner(s); learning which frames are good for you, which give value, which take value and then acting accordingly are some of the most important things you can learn to improve your life and your relationships.

Understanding frame also directly connects to how much success you will have when it comes to your corporate endeavours, especially when trying to climb the career ladder.

Self-Improvment Pillar 4- Game

 

Many people think of Pick-up Artists that use manipulative methods to pick up girls when they hear about game. This is only partially true, though.

 

Game is essentially the Art of Frame control and being high in power when it comes to dating and seduction.

 

It encompasses the things you say, your body language, your behavior, your “bedroom skills” and other skills when when it comes to dating.

Good game means that you are good at attracting members of the opposite sex and can seduce them effortlessly. It also means that you are able to vet potential partners for their value.

Especially as a high-value individual, many people will want to use you for the things you can provide to them. Game enables you to identify suitable dating prospects and disqualify those who don’t desire you for you.

However, good game also helps when it comes to your long-term relationships. Many people find themselves in helpless situations with their partners/spouses after a few years.

The initial attraction and passion has evaporated and they have no idea why. They have tried all the BS mainstream advice and still get no results.

Frankly, we’re tired of people being in such situations.

This is also a big reason why conquerandelevate exists. But we don’t want to tell you what’s moral and what’s immoral. You may not like what you hear and you may not belive it at first.

That’s totally okay. We only encourage you to read this stuff with an open mind and consider the solutions we offer as the right way. All advice we give is based in evolutionary principles and backed by evolutionary psychology.

Game is also connected to power, once again. Power dynamics in dating are a huge obstacle that one needs to overcome when trying to be successful in the sexual marketplace.

It is also important to note, that game for men is very different than game for women.

Self-Improvment Pillar 5 – Power dynamics and social skills

 

This is the pillar that is forgotten from most other self-improvement spaces.

Everything is about power. But why do most self-help spaces shy away from the topic?

You might ask yourself if power is bad. I tend to disagree. It is futile and naive to try to improve yourself without also learning all about power. Hard Work, providing Value or “getting better” don’t necessarily guarantee your success.

And that’s where power dynamics and machiavellianism enter the picture.

If self-improvement means “growing in your personal value and ability to give”, then this is the other side of the coin that includes:

 

• Knowing who to give value to (vetting)
• How to get value back (setting up win-win)
• How to get the biggest ROI (strategies)

How it all comes together

 

To be a true high value individual means to be in the top 10% of all five pillars. Each pillar standing for itself will probably not be enough to grant success in all areas of life.

For example, if you just have a whole lot of money but no understanding of power dynamics, social skills and game, you will get used for the value your money brings to other people. You will not be able to spot low-value individuals and are therefore an easy target for the manipulators of this world.

If you only have good game and good looks, you might attract women but keeping them will be hard. Frankly, without money you will probably live in a basement somewhere and struggle from paycheck to paycheck, so women are the least of your concerns.

If you have everything except an understanding of power dynamics, other people might snatch opportunities from you because they present themselves in a better light than you and have (at least percieved by others) higher status than you.

But after spending some time on this website and doing the work necessary in the real world, you will not run into these problems anymore. Because Self-Improvement has done so much for us, we truly believe that everyone can make it.

Do the work and get into the top 1%!

We know you are able to do it and will be here to support you along the way!
