Surrender & Acceptance

Unconscious Competence—How Overthinking Blocks Greatness

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

Stylized, poster-style image of Michael Jackson and Bruce Lee posing together.

True mastery begins where thinking ends.

Bruce Lee. Michael Jackson.
Different worlds. Same truth:
Don't overthink. Don't perform. Become.

At the highest level, you're not following moves or reciting steps.
You're not even doing it.

YOU ARE IT.

"Don't think. FEEL. It is like a finger pointing away to the moon.
Don't concentrate on the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory."

— Bruce Lee, Enter the Dragon

"Thinking is the biggest mistake a dancer could make.
You have to feel. You become the bass. You become a fanfare.
You become the clarinet and the flute and the strings and the drums."

— Michael Jackson

There's no ego. No strain. No self-consciousness.
Just being. Just truth.
Just the moment, expressing itself—

THROUGH YOU.

"To express yourself in freedom, you must die to everything of yesterday.
From the 'old', you derive security; from the 'new', you gain the flow."

— Commonly attributed to Bruce Lee

"I feel blessed to be the instrument through which music flows.
It's as if the song was already written—before I was born.
I'm just the vessel. It doesn't come from me.
It's God's work. I'm just the messenger."

— Michael Jackson

This is effortless, raw authenticity—received from above.
Not just in art,
but in conversation, in tension, in connection.
With people. With pressure. With women. With life.

This kind of aura doesn't push itself through.

IT FLOWS.

"I don't force it.
I just step into it.
It's like stepping into a river and joining the flow.
Every moment in the river has its song."

— Michael Jackson, Moonwalk (1988)

"Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water…
You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup…
Water can flow or it can crash.
Be water, my friend."

— Bruce Lee

Water doesn't resist. It adapts.
It doesn't react. It RESPONDS.
It meets reality without resistance—
and moves perfectly through it.

This is unconscious competence in motion:
Like a waking dream—fluid, present, free.

No mind. No mask. No pretense.
Just clarity. Just rhythm.
Just you—fully present.

FULLY ALIVE.

"Honestly expressing yourself—now, that is very difficult to do. It's easy to put on a show, to be cocky, or to show some fancy movement. But to experience oneself honestly, not lying to oneself, and to express myself honestly—now that, my friend, is very hard to do."

— Bruce Lee

✠ P.S. If you keep overthinking and replaying conversations where you failed to speak up, this is not thoughtfulness—it is paralysis. Overthinking does not protect men; it delays them until authority is lost. This brotherhood ends hesitation and demands decisive presence under pressure—inside The Kingdom Council 🏛️. Because a man who cannot speak with conviction gets spoken over.

Short Kings: Winning Even When You're Not Six Feet Tall

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

A tiny man walking hand-in-hand with a towering woman down city streets, the height discrepancy creating an absurd and oddly comical contrast.

"In the theater of attraction, height steals the show."

— The God Pill

According to most women, the most desirable height for a man is six feet tall (or taller)—a criterion met by only about 14.5% of all U.S. men.

However, since most of us do not meet this requirement, the basic rule of thumb is this:

Be Taller Than She Is

Again, just be taller than she is.

Most women will date a taller man—

—but they won't date a SHORTER MAN.

For example, if she's 5'8" and you're only 5'6", you might be DISQUALIFIED.

But if you're 5'6" and she's 5'2", you're in a good spot—as long as your money, muscles, game, and faith are on point.

So, make sure you're taller than she is—because women want to look UP, not DOWN; they want a superior, not an equal.

Now, in a perfect world, would most women prefer a man who is six feet tall?

ABSOLUTELY—let's not delude ourselves here.

But as long as you’re taller than she is, you're in a good position.

"God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of God."

— 1 Corinthians 1:27-29 (ESV)

Remember

At the end of the day, you CAN'T control your height—

—but you CAN control your confidence, charisma, game, and frame.

So, live as if you are 6 FEET TALL, because you can't change it.

Always praise God for what you've been given—

—and disregard the rest.

For when you are weak—

—👉 HE IS STRONG 👈.

"For [GOD] formed my inward parts; [He] knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise [Him], for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are [His] works; my soul knows it very well."

— Psalm 139:14 (ESV)

✠ P.S. If you feel overlooked, size yourself up against taller men, or question whether you measure up, this is not about inches—it is about presence. Men are not rejected because of height; they are rejected when they carry themselves as small. This brotherhood is where men establish presence and sharpen masculine frame—inside The Kingdom Council 🏛️. Because men who refuse to play small stop being treated that way.

From Distance to Desire: How to Make Her Miss You

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

A cold, distant woman in the backward embrace of another man, his identity obscured behind her.

"Hey, I was dating this girl, and she asked for space, so I went no contact for nine days. She finally reached out, saying she had changed her mind, but she seemed distant, contacting me only once every week or so. The last time she wanted to talk, I missed her call. When I called back, we talked for five minutes, and I told her we'd talk later because I was busy. Two days later, I texted her about meeting up. It's been two weeks, and I haven't heard from her. I haven't called her either because she seems distant, and I felt I should mirror her actions to maintain polarity. What should I do?"

— Jack Zamàñi, private group member

Here's some food for thought: 👉 LET HER GO 👈.

The writing is on the wall.

She's no longer invested in you.

She's no longer interested.

She no longer CARES.

Perhaps you've heard the expression, "Out of sight, out of mind."

At some point, she LOST her attraction and is now simply USING YOU for a free dopamine hit of attention and validation.

That's reality.

"Actions are the greatest indicator of intent, so judge by actions, not words. Behavior is the only reliable evidence of motivation. By her fruits, you will recognize her."

— God Pill Maxim

Listen, I Get It...

We men are STUBBORN, forever determined to push forward—to rise to the challenge, hoping against hope—even when it defies our better judgment.

So, if you're still determined to press on, what actions can you take?

At this stage, I recommend shifting to "STRATEGIC PRESENCE."

That's right—contrary to popular opinion, it may actually be beneficial to INCREASE your presence—

—just don't become TOO present.

The key here is 👉 BALANCE 👈—

—and the good news is, there's a way to achieve it.

Here's What I Suggest

Reach out to her ONCE with something short, simple, and sweet.

Something that doesn't require investment, commitment, or even a response—just something light-hearted and fun.

Something that triggers positive emotions.

Nothing heavy.

Don't overthink it.

This is just to get the ball rolling...

After that:

⚠️ DO NOT call her.
⚠️ DO NOT text her.
⚠️ NOTHING.

Simply wait...

⚠️ ZERO CONTACT! ⚠️

"Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires."

— Song of Solomon 2:7 (NIV)

Hear me now: A woman is like a cat; you cannot negotiate her feelings or desires.

You must "release her" and let her return of her OWN VOLITION.

If she doesn't, she lacks 👉 GENUINE DESIRE 👈—

—and it's best to AVOID women who lack genuine desire anyway.

It's an UPHILL BATTLE, and trust me—that's a hill you don't want to die on.

SO, BE PATIENT!

After planting the seed, you must give it TIME TO GROW. 🌳

It won't be easy, but nothing worthwhile ever is—so give her the gift of missing you.

Because—ultimately—the most compelling way to capture her attention is to take YOURS away.

Let your absence increase her RESPECT and HONOR—

—and only re-engage ⚠️ AFTER ⚠️ she RESPONDS.

Remember, if she's into you, she'll find a WAY; if not, she'll find an EXCUSE.

"When a woman has genuine desire, she will make it obvious; there is no guesswork."

— God Pill Maxim

Here's the CRITICAL PART

When (and if) she replies, greet her with confidence, good vibes, and positive energy.

❌ DON'T bring up the past.
❌ DON'T mention her distant behavior.
❌ DON'T ask why she took so long to respond.

There's a time and place for that, but not here.

"Women want to play the game; they don't want to be told they are playing a game."

— Red Pill Maxim

Lay off the "tactics" and don't pretend to be busy.

Simply welcome her with positivity, optimism, and good spirits—

—but don't immediately push for the meetup.

Again, DO NOT push for the meetup.

Pushing too soon will only serve to PUSH HER AWAY.

It's predictable and boring—she's seen it all before.

So, play it cool, brother.

Appeal to her emotions—

—and prove you can engage without an agenda.

"A genuine Christian is desirable by default, since his highest priority isn't women—but God."

— God Pill Maxim

Remember

Absence is a tool—

—but it's not the ONLY tool.

Balance is CRITICAL.

And you BALANCE hot and cold polarity by staying focused, patient, and silent until you hear from her ("absence")—

—but responding with engagement, positive vibes, and good spirits when you do ("presence").

This, my friend, will make her MISS YOU. 💪

"Pursuing a woman who is distant and closed off is kind of like showing up at your favorite restaurant a minute after they close. Let's say they serve until 8 p.m., and you show up at 8:01. When you walk in the door, they say something like, 'Oh, so sorry, but we're actually closed. Our kitchen is closed, so please come back tomorrow.' Now, just like in a romantic relationship, if you were in this situation in real life, it would be absolutely ludicrous and entitled to insist that you be served. It's only a minute after closing time, but it is technically after closing time. Whether it's an inch or a mile, out of bounds is out of bounds, and expecting that an exception is going to be made for you is a little narcissistic and absurd. That said, it would be just as ludicrous and entitled for the restaurant to expect that you're not going to eat until tomorrow just because their kitchen is closed. So, what do you do in this real-life situation? You say, 'Oh, absolutely, completely understand. Enjoy the rest of your night. I'm gonna see what else is open at this hour, and I'll come back another time.' And you take your hunger where people are willing to serve you. It's that simple."

— Dr. Orion Taraban, PsycHacks

Check Your Heart!

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

A stone heart drifting through the cosmos, glowing faintly as it trails a comet-like tail of light and debris.

"Touch me, O Lord,
and fill me with your light and your hope.
Please give me strength when I am weak,
love when I am forsaken,
courage when I am afraid,
wisdom when I am foolish,
comfort when I am alone,
hope when I am rejected,
and peace when I am afflicted.
Amen."

When we are hit with severe hardship, trial, or affliction, one of two things generally happens:

We retreat inward—

—or we reach upward.

When We Retreat Inward

Our HEARTS HARDEN, leading to a spirit of bitterness and resentment taking root—

—and we lash out at God with fiery rage because life seems so UNFAIR.

When We Reach Upward

Our HEARTS SOFTEN, and our love and devotion to God—coupled with our utter helplessness apart from Him—drive us to our knees in shame-faced sobriety—

—and we cry out to Him in anguish, "Abba, Father!" with a broken and contrite heart because we know we cannot do it ALONE.

How Will You Respond to Life's Challenges?

Will you harden or soften?

Will you stand alone or kneel in His presence?

Will you isolate in anger or connect in surrender?

Will BITTERNESS drive you—

—or will HUMILITY guide you?

"Seek the LORD while he may be found; call upon him while he is near; let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the LORD, that he may have compassion on him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon."

— Isaiah 55:6-9 (ESV)

*Related: "We Are All Screwed Up—All of Us"

✠ P.S. If you have drifted from God or are wrestling with doubt, this is not a phase—it is erosion. Distance from God never stays neutral; it weakens conviction until faith collapses under pressure. This brotherhood exists to restore Biblical masculinity and forge faith that is lived, not inherited—inside The Kingdom Council 🏛️. Because when pressure comes, a faith you do not live will leave you standing alone.

Stop Seeking Approval!

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

A man standing on a mountain crest, gazing at a vibrant sunset casting warm hues across the horizon, surrounded by the serene beauty of nature.

"An Authentic Man is non-reactive. He doesn't let the opinions of others influence or discourage him. He is always sure of himself and his convictions because his ally is truth. He strives for excellence, not acceptance, because he knows that winners look internally, but losers look externally."

— The God Pill

Women seek approval—NOT MEN.

Women seek acceptance—NOT MEN.

Women seek validation—NOT MEN.

Your objective is to find merit in your own efforts, incentives, and values—and trust God and your internal scorecard rather than the opinions of others.

Because if God is your inspiration, He becomes your VALIDATION—

—and when God is your validation, He becomes your VINDICATION.

So, strive for EXCELLENCE, not acceptance, because Winners look internally, but losers look externally.

Focus on the CONTROLLABLE and let go of the UNCONTROLLABLE, since pain is inevitable—

—but suffering is VOLUNTARY.

It may feel like it's you versus the world—

—but it's really just you versus yourself.

Remember: Never let the warfare around you become the warfare WITHIN you.

"You will continue to suffer if you have an emotional reaction to everything that is said to you. True power is sitting back and observing everything with logic. If words control you, that means everyone else can control you. Breathe and allow things to pass."

— Commonly attributed to Bruce Lee

✠ P.S. Carrying the weight of manhood alone does not build strength—it buries it. Men do not break because they are weak; they break because they are isolated. This brotherhood is where men break isolation and build resilience—inside The Kingdom Council 🏛️. Weight shared sharpens men. Weight shouldered alone shatters them.

If You Are Looking For A Manly & Godly Brotherhood...

this is the place. No whining here. Together, we learn and warn each other about the current pitfalls facing those of us unashamed of their God-given masculinity. No emojis, no AI sermons, just men learning and communicating overtly and willing to act like men according to biblical standards (1 Cor 16:13 ESV). We love women for who they are, not for what we wished they were.

 I Am Enjoying & Finding Value With The God Pill

It’s helping me identify my weaknesses while giving me practical advice on what and how to self-improve. It’s also helping me identify women’s nature. I’ve been able to identify where I went wrong in past relationships while understanding what brought me there to those places and what women’s motives were at those times.

My Review Of The God Pill:

[The God Pill] is my go-to when discussing relationship dynamics and having them work in tandem with my faith in God. It’s something all Christian men need right now. Thank you for all you do, and I hope it will continue to grow and help us lead in our relationships.

One Thing Is For Sure:

The God Pill is one of the rare places where we guys can share men’s topics that most churches will never touch on. Where can we guys talk about intersexual dynamics, real issues that plague men in our current gynocentric society and sissified churches, where we sing about Jesus being our lover and never about joining the Supreme Commander of the Armies of Heaven for battle? The God Pill is a breath of fresh air, and King David would have certainly joined it, in my opinion!
