TL;DR This can apply to anyone here but younger members, if your school or a local community center has one, join Drama (theater)

Body: I was a shy kid growing up. I had a massive stutter, like fucking bad. I couldn't pronounce B, C, D, F, G, K ect words without a massive embarrassing stutter. This lead me to not have a lot of friends because I told myself I am lame and I rather not embarrass myself. I was chunky as shit too. Then I hit middle school and decided to join Drama

I thought Drama at first was retarded, only fags did it, but it can be a great tool if you need help "faking it till you make it." I like to help on r asktrp but it's the same questions over and over again, What to do if I am lame, what to do if I am shy, I can't talk to girls, I'm awkward, blah blah blah. Here's what Drama taught me in a nutshell

Rehearsing lines and getting in your zone will help you retain knowledge. Getting pumped for a performance is just like getting ready for a gym session. It's your time. I loved being the lead actor.

When you are on stage you have to slow your voice down, my teacher literally said "talk like you are retarded", it will sound weird to you but normal to the audience." This helped me in real life, I always talked fast. Stupid tongue twisters that theater instructors teach helped me slow my voice down and let my words flow

You are a character and you get into your characters frame, you are being a fictional character. This gave me the chance to be macho if the script called for it, funny if the script called for it, so on so forth. I won awards in state competitions because I loved this aspect of the job. This taught me how to be a chameleon (Law 38, Think as you like but behave like others.)

Controlled breathing. You can't rush your lines, theater isn't a movie, you get one take every performance, you don't just yell cut and redo the scene. A huge theme of RP is Alpha Mindset. Look around at the Alphas in your life, their breathing is slow, balanced and looks natural. This helps in life with relationships and friendships. Sometimes you only get one chance to not fuck it up. If I got the lines wrong during a performance, it was on me to get the show back on track through improv

Closing: I did Drama for 6 years, made friends, got invited to parties and encouraged me to lose weight and I lost my stutter. I am currently looking to get back into it now that it's been 10 years since high school. I know these aren't necessarily red pill thoughts but theater is a great tool if you are unsure about yourself, feel lame (even though that's a weak excuse.) Red Pill isn't about being Alpha, it's about being the man you want to be and gain the Alpha mindset. Even if you don't need help in this field, theater is a great fucking hobby.
