The ferocity of your imagined adversaries define your maximum intellectual capacity.

Weak will caps that ferocity to low, since why would you create such difficult masochistic enemies when you could prop up some cardboard targets & pretend they’re your ultimate antagonists.

Self-brutality capacity is an essential aspect of reasoning. We rely on this ping pong competition so much. Majority of your life you won’t have adversaries that care or hate you enough to stick around and be a part of that adversarial network.

We have to invent them, and do it well.
