I have come to realize that it begins with oneself. The conquest of the world begins with mastery of your own conditions, as well as your own self to some extent. Firstly compose your energies and organize your being into an effective instrument. Control your environment to make it most amenable to your progress. If you are not perfectly suited to achieve in life, then you are in greater danger of failure proportional to your distance from perfection. No one is absolutely perfect in the pursuit of goals, yet one must strive to be. The further you are from being a perfect conquest machine, the greater the possibility of failure and ruin. Therefore, you must work out the kinks and issues that you may have that either hinders you or flat out prevents you from doing that which is necessary to the success of your goals.
I think in this sense the path of a Metiston allows one to overcome and conquer many obstacles and issues so that you can perform to the best of your ability. The Metistonic training is synonymous in many ways with the path of the Renaissance man. Some of the differences though include the greater emphasis on reaching the next highest plane of performance, of testing yourself and competing moreso, and of a few of the attitudinal aspects (greater focus on victory, conquest, some other aspects). Perhaps the comparison could be more generally described as less artist, more soldier/statesman. Also, given the prevalence of modern capitalistic societies, todays' Metistons need be more able in the merchant/trader/entrepreneur/opportunist realm, and much more ambitiously wealth-seeking than the Renaissance man model.
Where society rewards competitiveness and individualism, one must be extra competitive and extra individualistic. Where society rewards collectivism and altruism, one must be extra collectivistic and even more altruistic. To thine own self be true except where it is antithetical to your goals and aspirations. Excuses are aplenty, but the just and righteous man, the worthy man, just goes and does what should get done and has the stamina to do more than the average man will do. Life as you know can be quite brutal. Naturally, there will be fear, but you should try to take it all in stride and face down whatever comes at you with a solid stance and eyes fixed forward. In engaging work, taking a bunch of little steps consistently and regularly is better by far than inconsistent and random big steps. There is great adventure out there in the world to be had.
So, the path to world conquest begins first within yourself. You ignite a passionate fire inside of you to conquer the world outside metaphorically or literally. This type of inner fire does not need to spark again once truly ignited, but it is a steady flame that does not burn out. You need the willpower, the determination, the iron discipline to follow through consistently with goals in order to achieve them, and the perseverance to withstand anything tough that comes your way and go right on ahead. You have to got to be persistent, doggedly persistent. One struggles, then triumphs. So how do you go about with the process of unleashing your full efforts and exerting your real capacities? Just do so. Take it step by step, and then conquer it. Watch the time. Don't let anything or anyone stop you. Overcome limitations. Just try, try, and keep trying. Do, do and do more. I cannot provide exact advice on your particular situation, I do not know your particular limitations or what you specifically want to achieve, but the advice I will give is that you must do what you must do, and you must do also what you should do. Reason be your guide, and act accordingly. Go forth and conquer.
