Step #4 Awesomery is effortless

Do not allow that which is counter to the awesomery principles to influence your daily activities and decisions.

Simply stated :

DO NOT spend all of your efforts trying to impress people that you can't stand. This alone can be the biggest hurdle to maintaining an effective awesomery quotient.

So many times in life we adhere to the junior high school philosophy that we can withstand a few crotch shots to our ego, if there is a perceived "cool kids table in the lunch room" at which to reside. This is a fruitless existence. Awesomery should be effortless...and least of all without injury.

In my experience and research, the perception of awesome is in the eye of the beholder. 'Captain Cool Guy' might seem as though he has all his ducks in a row, but in all actuality, he is a mess. Attempt to peel back the outside layers of individuals in order to reveal if they have a delicious creamy center rather than a void of awesomery.
