If we bought into the bluepillers mantra of improving our personalities, what would that actually look like?
- Be funnier! Your sense of humour is built throughout your life and is a developmental expression of yourself, "becoming funnier" isn't really a thing. If you don't got it, you don't got it. Practicing one-liners is not going to make you funny.
- Be kinder! Being kinder is easy, being kind is the easiest thing in the world. The problem is that everyone can be kind. It's a baseline expected trait. It will not make you more attractive (rather the opposite)
- Be more social! Sure, you can practice your social skills but if you're beginning from zero, it's hard to make leaps in that domain. Most people make friends through friends, if you don't have any friends, you can't just construct a social life around you
- Be more charismatic! Same as with funny, charisma is deeply rooted, if you even have to try, you don't got it.
- Be more optimistic! If you've accepted the Blackpill, you've essentially depleted all your optimism through life experience. There's no rekindling that if something extraordinary doesn't happen to improve your life. Optimism can only come if you're still grasping onto the hope of a better future.
So yeah, "improving your personality" is just an empty phrase. You can tweak some of your traits, but your personality is pretty much set in stone.
