Ah, the art of the deal. It seems my thoughts on love have sparked your interest in this most sacred skill. Let no fool convince you otherwise; all business is negotiation. All life as we know it is built on the negotiation of one power asserting its dominance over another. The rest is a footnote in the End User Agreement.

What could be more entertaining than an evening of fun at the expense of others? Behold, the karaoke dinner party! You can tell a lot about a man by the way he breaks down in front of a room full of strangers.

Hosting the perfect karaoke party is no small feat. When I was ten, my Dad once killed a man in front of my brothers and I for tripping over the amp cord at the peak of The Bangles' "Eternal Flame". We learned that bumbling, drunken idiocy should be kept strictly to the spotlight.

I am often asked for the secret to my success. There is, of course, an easy answer; but only for those who can understand it. For these people, all that is needed is a gentle push - a silent nod - and they will rise. Such pedigree is a rare and precious find. I seek such individuals like a delectable treasure. On them, I do not need to waste my time explaining what cannot be taught.

Let it be clear. I spend a lot of time in dark places. In fact, I own and operate several. The club is my natural habitat. The air is thick, the liquor is flowing, and the bodies are grinding... My kind of place. I am the man in the back you fear and want to be. I sit behind the velvet ropes. I am surrounded by beautiful women and supplicating lackeys who do my bidding. Do not make eye contact. I can have you hanging upside down in the basement face-first in a bucket of pig urine with a snap of my finger if I don't like the hat you've worn to my establishment. Sometimes I haul someone down just for the hell of it. Nothing gets a rise like a man desperately proclaiming his innocence.

Love is a transaction. Every man must know his worth. He must expect nothing less in return. Unconditional love is a myth perpetuated by the kind of imbecile who expects one day find in the arms of another what does not exist in the universe: a free lunch. It is no wonder to me why such fools wind up dining on a bullet. Love can never be free. It is a union based on a contractual exchange for mutual benefit. There is no difference between love and business. Both are a simple trade of compatible values. The economics are just as straightforward, and the math never changes. I do care to explain the foolish of love... It is not economically prosperous for a man of my position to be "in love". Foolery of the heart weakens the resolve of the mind. I do not compromise. I do not negotiate. Love is no different.

Fate? Getting what you deserve? Then you are a fool. Not to mention broke. And weak. And stupid. You are a puppet in the hands of those who control you. You realize you could be more. You could be them. But you are not. Why? Easy. I always get what I want. There is exactly one reason why: I choose to.

The process is simple:

1. WANT IT

You will achieve nothing unless you want it. There is no such thing as "luck". Success is a choice. Desire is the will to succeed. Decision is the act of will. Vision is the secret to it all. A man who has no desire is nothing but a tool for those who do. When your heart is lit by the fire of your passion, your hands will warm the objects of your desire. When you know what you want, you become unstoppable. This is what separates the wolves from the flock. Winners choose. Losers snooze. There will always be someone willing to follow your will for what they lack in their own. Know that without your vision to guide them, they are blind. Use them to reach your preferred destination.
