Self Development over Self Improvement

[Tabula Rasa]

The notion of self improvement is one that is flawed and unnatural. The reason that self improvement is largely ineffectual is based on the flawed premise of 'improving' in order to chase some undefined incorporeal goal, running after fool's gold, thinking that you would be complete and fulfilled by attaining these things. Whitepilled self development differs not by focusing on material conditions and external praise and status from others, but by finding inward purpose for the reason that you do the things you are doing.

A Whitepiller aims to seek a higher state on a journey of self actualisation, finding fulfillment in the things that mean the most to them. Day by day, they pursue in becoming a better person, whether in regards to their own principles and moral compass, their repertoire of skills, spiritual development or any other aspects. Thus, the two differ where one directs their attention outwardly to material desires while the other focuses on cultivating the inner self.

Yes, I agree with that, however I'd say Whitepilled self development differs by being inherently non-competitive and not driven by external factors or motivators.

Interesting thread, self improvement talked by redpillers aims to change your state of body and mind with the goal of gaining something external, usually from others. Developing yourself to be content with your own body and mind however, relies less on adapting to current trends and ways of doing. Although both can share a similar result (self developing could still reward you with external factors like self improving does), and in a way some similar ways of doing so, one has a different premise than the other

This actually is also talked about by self improvers in a way, doing so to fulfill yourself and not worrying about validation or results from others while proceeding with the journey yet
