He who is born for a dime, will never be worth a quarter.

Self improvement is a modern, liberal fantasy. Our forefathers were blackpilled as fuck, their language reflected that as folksy idioms are full of eternal, blackpilled truths. Ancient and medieval philosphers and scholars knew that self improvement was a dumb meme for which only fools fell. Modernity tricked us into having aspirations to make us consoom all sorts of products and services - we should aspire to destroy the notion of aspiration itself.

You're right, the idea that you can change your destiny by "self improving" is entirely based in liberal ideology which presumes humans are born a blank slate with infinite potential and if that potential is not met, it is due to individual moral failings.

amazing how no matter how many times that picture gets posted, no matter which website, there has never been a refute. because there is none.
And you are right about futility. "Self improvement" is to feed one's own delusion. They are not improving. They are coping

The ideology of self improvement (and pulling yourself up by your bootstraps) is really the product of American liberal revolutionay thinking. Is a crucial part of the foundational myth of the USA and when the USA won the Cold War in 1991 it pumped its ideology in the soft brains of just about everyone on the planet - some traditional societies on the Eurasian landmass and in the Middle East tried to resist this globohomo liberal onslaught - but they got 'regime-changed' into submission.

I think that the unique American type of optimism and liberal belief of malleability of both society and of people is a function of America being a 'young' civilization, 'young' as in: 400 years ago there was nothing but a few roving bands of Amerindians in forests and on plains. In the US a free individual could still move because the place was empty, fertile and full of opportunity up until the 1970s, but as societies age they begin to stratify socio-economially, socially and also sexually. And stratification begins to entrench itself in myriads of subtle and not-so subtle ways.

When you survey older continental Europeans, Middle Easterners, Asians and Africans you find out that the idea of malleability and 'social mobility' are very recent cultural imports young people were and are propagandized into believing. The old formal hierarchies and traditions were displaced so American merchants could start extracting rents, and in turn we got informal liberal hierarchies which are never recognized as such. Everything in liberalism hides behind euphemisms - and when you call things out people call you delusional, paranoid or a conspiracy theorist.

It's defeatist nonsense to believe you can't forcibly improve aspects of your life. You can get into elite physical condition if you love health and fitness. You can dedicate time to pursuing higher education and learning desirable skills if you want a high paying job. Practice and dedicated effort is meaningful is most areas of life.

However, you can NOT improve your genetics.

I disagree. It should be posted in every thread. There can be no escape from the blackpill.
